"What, the Zhao family's invitation? Could it be that Zhao Wushuang mentioned the invitation to that mysterious person in the World Forum before?"

"Yes, I remember Zhao Wushuang said at that time that whoever could guide Zhao Linger to defeat the fourth-level demon snake would be invited to attend the birthday party? Could it be that the mysterious person was found so quickly?"

"Of course it is. With the Zhao family's strength, it shouldn't be difficult to find someone!"

When Gu Ci heard the words "Zhao family invitation letter", his heart moved.

But he remained calm on the surface, just looking at Zhao Yiming coldly, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth: "Mr. Zhao, you don't think I would care about your shabby invitation, do you?"

Zhao Yiming burst into laughter upon hearing this and said, "No, Gu Ci, are you stupid? This invitation letter is not for you. You are so shameless that you think I gave it to you?"

The smile on Gu Ci's face froze for a moment, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

But he probably knew...

My previous ID on the world forum may have been impersonated by someone!

Sure enough, as he expected.

Zhao Yiming slowly walked past Gu Ci and pointed at the podium. He said, "Look at the podium for yourself. My invitation is for the second-place Lin family's Young Master Lin, Lin Dong! He is the 'good man' who has a hidden identity!"

The crowd's gazes were fixed on Gu Ci like a spotlight, and he felt his face burning, as if he had been slapped hard in the face.

Zhao Yiming's sarcastic tone and contemptuous eyes were like the tongue of a poisonous snake, licking bloody marks on his heart.

"A good man"!

This ID was deeply engraved in his mind like a brand.

Because that’s the name he gave himself.

Previously, on the world forum, he anonymously posted his analysis and improvement suggestions on Zhao Linger's fighting skills, and successfully attracted the attention of the Zhao family with the ID of "a good man".

In fact, he just wanted to help Zhao Linger, but he didn't expect to get such deep attention from the Zhao family!

Lin Dong, the runner-up in the group on the stage? How dare someone steal his ID and snatch away the opportunity that should have belonged to him?

Gu Ci's eyes swept across the excited, curious, and sarcastic faces around him, and anger was boiling in his heart.

"Gu Ci, why are you silent? Are you disappointed? Let me tell you, my sister Zhao Yiming will go astray, but she will eventually wake up. Look at Lin Dong, the young hero, who do you think you are?"

Seeing Gu Ci remained silent, Zhao Yiming became even more complacent. He walked up to Lin Dong and handed him the invitation letter with a big smile on his face. “Mr. Lin, this is the invitation letter my father asked me to give you. Please be sure to come and give it to me.”

Lin Dong was flattered to accept the invitation, his face filled with unconcealable joy.

He pretended to be humble and declined a few times, but finally accepted the invitation "reluctantly".

"Master Lin, congratulations! I didn't expect you to be the mysterious master. You are truly a man who never reveals his true identity!"

"Yes, yes, Master Lin is really a hidden talent. I'll have to give you more guidance in the future!"

The people around gathered around Lin Dong and congratulated him, as if he was the ultimate winner of the game.

Zhao Yiming looked at Lin Dong, who was the center of attention. His eyes first showed a chill, but the next moment, they suddenly became indifferent.

The flattering voices around him were like sharp knives, piercing Gu Ci's eardrums and stabbing his heart.

He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into the flesh, but he didn't feel any pain.

"Lin Dong? Who the hell is he? Is he worthy?!"

Gu Ci suddenly raised his head and glared at the smug figure in the crowd. A nameless anger burned in his chest.

"Gu Ci, are you crazy?"

Just when Gu Ci finished saying this.

Behind me, two women's voices were heard.

The people who came were Wen Lili and Lu Xinyi.

"Why am I crazy?"

Gu Ci turned around suddenly, his eyes red, like an angry beast.

Wen Lili and Lu Xinyi were startled by his sudden change. They stood there in a daze, forgetting to react for a moment.

"Crazy? How am I crazy?!" Gu Ci gritted his teeth and spoke word by word, as if he wanted to chew the two words into pieces and then spit them out.

Wen Lili came back to her senses, and looking at Gu Ci's appearance, she felt a little reluctant. She gently pulled Gu Ci's sleeve and said softly: "Gu Ci, don't try to touch that Lin Dong, he is a member of the Lin family, and his strength is estimated to be at the fifth level. But now he is the leader of the academy, and he will be the early batch of Shangqing in the future..."

"Gu Ci, are you crazy?" Wen Lili raised her voice, interrupting Gu Ci's anger that was about to burst out.

She took a step forward and stood in front of Gu Ci, her tone anxious, "Do you want to challenge Lin Dong in front of everyone? Can you beat him? Even if you can, do you think the Lin family will let you go?"

"Lili is right, Gu Ci, don't be impulsive." Lu Xinyi also came forward, pulled Gu Ci's sleeve, and gently persuaded, "Isn't Zhao Linger a woman who changes her mind according to the situation? It's not worth it!"

Gu Ci took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, but his clenched fists never loosened.

He stared at Lin Dong with his eyes, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

However, Zhao Linger on the stage at this moment did not react as strongly as Wen Lili and Lu Xinyi said when faced with Lin Dong's goodwill.

At the same time, the combat communicator on Gu Ci's waist suddenly rang.

Gu Ci lowered his head and took it out to take a look. It showed: "Your account 'A Good Person' has been re-registered... It seems that your account has been lost. Because the account violates the rules, re-registration is not accepted!"

"Okay, Lin Dong, you actually hacked all my accounts!"

Gu Ci raised his head and looked at Lin Dong who was shaking the trophy on the stage, his eyes darkened.

He put away the communicator, glanced sharply at Lin Dong on the stage, and smiled coldly: "I want to get back this debt!"

"Gu Ci, you..." Wen Lili wanted to persuade her again, but was stopped by Lu Xinyi.

Lu Xinyi shook her head at her, signaling her not to provoke Gu Ci again.

Gu Ci took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around and walked out of the competition venue.

"Gu Ci, where are you going?" Wen Lili and Lu Xinyi hurriedly followed.

"Moving bricks." Gu Ci threw down a sentence without even turning his head.

"Moving bricks?" Wen Lili and Lu Xinyi looked at each other, totally confused as to what Gu Ci was up to.

Gu Ci ignored their doubts and left the award ceremony directly...

Until this time——

"Wait a minute, I have something to say!"
