Chapter 58: Society, Brother Long

Since the battle with the senior class, Class Zero’s reputation can be said to have reached the top in the entire East China Academy.

Lin Ci, in particular, had become a star at Donghai College, attracting the attention of other students whenever he walked around the campus.

Lin Ci actually didn't like this feeling at all. Although he had this experience before, after all, he was considered a top genius at Shrek Academy during the last strategy mission. Naturally, he was also very famous.

However, such attention is still rare. The relatively strict training of Class Zero means that they appear in public too rarely.

Since the last battle, Xu Xiaoyan has completely integrated into Class Zero and gained everyone's recognition. After all, her powerful control ability, although limited, is definitely a very powerful ability.

And since then, the girl who was originally afraid of Lin Ci has become bolder. She often follows him during practical training, like a little follower.

She didn't mind at all that Lin Ci had just beaten up her brother. She even shared with them the miserable state of Xu Xiaoyu recovering from her injuries.

Xu Xiaoyu: I have lost my sister forever. It hurts, it hurts so much!

Lin Ci's current soul power was still at the peak of level 39, but it was more stable than before. Breaking through to level 40 was only a matter of time, and all that was missing was the finishing touch.

However, what bothered him a little during this period was that the simulation system was never turned on again.

Although this is not a big deal, it does mean that he has lost a place to relieve stress and emotions.

Moreover, the favorability of the strategy guide was not very stable. It was high today and low tomorrow. This made his mood fluctuate.

I don’t know what Gu Yue is thinking, but this guy is indeed in a gloomy mood. I sent him a box lunch today, but ignored him tomorrow.

I don't understand, but it's not bad if it's not removed drastically.

Since he had money, he'd revisited the incredibly expensive business of mechas. Over the past few decades, mechas hadn't changed much, though some processes had become simpler due to technological advancements. However, despite all the changes, the fundamentals remained the same. After revisiting them and practicing them repeatedly, Lin Ci had completely reached the same level as he once did with even the most basic mechas.

However, he has not yet come into contact with the most advanced high-end mecha, so he naturally cannot clearly understand the changes.

When I came out of the dormitory early in the morning, I was startled by the hurried Xie Xie.

Xie Xie panted and asked, "Brother Ci, where is Teacher Wu? Have you seen her?"

"No." Lin Ci then said, "But he probably isn't in the dormitory."

Xie Xie looked anxious, "That's it, there's no office."

Lin Ci frowned slightly, a trace of doubt in his heart, and asked, "Why are you looking for Teacher Wu so urgently? What happened?"

"Well, yesterday Wu Lin and I went out to eat and beat up a protection racket called Long, and then..." Xie Xie gave a wry smile and explained helplessly.

dragon?
Lin Ci subconsciously asked, "Did you offend Gu Yue?"

"What Gu Yue? If only it were Gu Yue." Xie Xie was a little anxious. "Now they have brought people to block the entrance of the academy. I think they are in big trouble. It seems to be quite serious."

"What did you say?" At this moment, Gu Yue appeared behind Xie Xie without knowing when, and was looking at him coldly.

Some inconspicuous sparks also flew between the ends of the girl's hair. Obviously, if Xie Xie said something wrong next, he would probably be beaten again.

Xie Xie was frightened by Gu Yue’s sudden appearance and stammered, “Gu…Gu Yue, why are you here?”

Gu Yue snorted coldly, "Stop talking nonsense and tell me clearly, what on earth have you done? Someone is actually blocking the entrance of the academy."

Obviously, she also heard about what happened at the school gate.

Xie Xie had no choice but to explain it again in detail.

Lin Ci understood now and said, "What you mean is that you beat up a bald dragon yesterday, and then beat up the old ones and the young ones. Their family sent people to cause trouble at the entrance of the academy?"

Xie Xie nodded with a bitter face, "That's pretty much what happened. Wu Lin and I saw that bald dragon bullying people in the restaurant, and we got so angry that we started fighting. Who knew his family had some influence? Today, he brought a group of people to the entrance of the academy, saying that he wanted to teach us a lesson."

Gu Yue didn't think there was anything wrong and nodded calmly: "Then let's go and take a look first."

The gate of Donghai College was now completely blocked. At least two hundred fierce-looking and burly men were blocking the door with various weapons. Many of them were even holding soul guides that were banned by the Federation for civilian use.

With the advancement of soul-guiding technology, soul-guiding devices have long since reached the point where ordinary people can use them. While soul masters still hold a high status, the gap between them and ordinary people has long been narrowed thanks to technology. Just as ordinary people can now control soul-guiding mechas, below a certain level, soul masters don't have that much of an advantage over ordinary people with soul-guiding devices. This is also a key reason why these people dared to block a soul master academy.

At East Sea College, many students from the intermediate and advanced departments gathered near the entrance. The burly men across from them held up two large photos. They were, surprisingly, photos of Tang Wulin and Xie Xie.

"Aren't those two from Class Zero? What's going on?"

"I don't know, but the guy who came today is not a good person. He is a ruthless character. His brother has been using his brother's prestige to extort money from the surrounding area."

Tang Wulin and Xu Xiaoyan had already reached the door, but at this time they were standing behind the head teacher, Long Hengxu, with other teachers standing beside him.

Obviously at this time, the principal still stood up to protect his students.

"The photo is quite high-definition." Lin Ci said after looking around.

Xie Xie's mouth twitched when he heard this.

Guang Biao pointed at his brother Guang Long, who was wrapped in bandages beside him, and said sternly, "I will not give up until you, Donghai Academy, give me an explanation today and hand over the person who assaulted me."

Long Hengxu's face paled slightly. This Guang Biao before him was no ordinary person. He possessed a Soul Emperor-level cultivation and was the captain of the East Sea Mecha Division. He simply couldn't afford to offend him.

Xie Xie gritted his teeth and was about to rush out, but was pulled back by Lin Ci.

"What are you going to do?"

Xie Xie said with some determination: "Everyone has their own responsibility. We can't make things difficult for the academy."

Lin Ci frowned slightly, holding Xie Xie tightly, and whispered, "You're so stupid! Wouldn't it be a waste of time to go out like this? This isn't a big deal. Don't worry."

At this point, Long Hengxu took a deep breath and tried to sound calm. "Captain Guangda, do you think there's some misunderstanding here? Our academy has always taught students to be kind to others and would never condone students assaulting others. We've also heard about your nephew's behavior in the restaurant. Collecting protection money is wrong in itself."

Guang Biao sneered, "I don't care if he collects protection money or not. He's my brother. He was beaten like this by students from your academy. I must get an explanation."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the burly men behind him immediately took a few steps forward, the weapons and soul guides in their hands flashing with cold light.

"Okay, okay. Don't disturb my lunch."

Lin Ci walked out and looked at Guang Biao. Facing the captain of the mecha division, he simply said:
"You're keeping me from going out for lunch."

Guang Biao was stunned, his blood boiling. He was about to scold this ignorant student, but he was stunned when he saw Lin Ci's face.

He knows this guy.

A few days ago, he went to their mecha division with a huge sum of money and the identity of a Spirit Pagoda, and then dismantled all their mechas on the premise of guaranteeing compensation if any damage occurred, under the pretext of helping them optimize them.

Guang Biao was almost mad to death at that time.

But later this guy put them all back together, and the reassembled mecha was actually fully optimized and upgraded, with a lot of performance improvements.

Guang Biao's anger was noticeably less intense when facing Lin Ci. This guy hadn't simply helped them upgrade their mechas. If the East Sea City Spirit Pagoda's branch master hadn't warned them that day, he wouldn't have let this guy mess with their mechas.

Therefore, facing Lin Ci, Guang Biao's tone was a little better, "Even if it's you, my brother's beating can't be in vain."

Guanglong, who was wrapped in bandages, was touched: "Brother, you are so kind..."

But the rest of the words were stuck in his throat before he could say them.

"At least help us inspect and repair the mecha again in the future."

Guanglong: “…”

At this moment, a figure in white also arrived at the scene at the gate.

Guang Biao naturally noticed it as well, but instead of just looking at each other, he just felt that his Soul Emperor cultivation had stagnated a little.

He could sense this oppressive feeling from the young man in white, and he could tell that his soul power level was not much different from his own. But for someone of the same level to have such a strong sense of oppression, there was only one possibility.

He is a battle armor master!
Guang Biao really didn't expect that the small Donghai College could have so many hidden talents.

"Walk."

Without any hesitation, he turned around and led his brothers from the Mecha Division to evacuate the school gate.

Guanglong was very unconvinced. He obviously felt that his revenge was not yet taken. "Brother, we..."

But this time, before he could finish his words, Guang Biao slapped his bald head hard.

"Let's go home and eat."

After Guang Biao led the group away, Wu Zhangkong also came up to the group, but he didn't say anything. He simply said to the people in Class Zero, "Let's go back to class first."

 In society, you, Brother Long, are ruthless but talkative. Anyone who follows the Dragon King will be beaten, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable.
