"It's not entirely out of the question, but Lin Han, did you really throw me up into the sky just for fun?"
"No, I just slipped and fell by accident..."
"Fine, we can just have someone repair it later. Come to think of it, who would dare to sneak into Changqi Academy to assassinate a student? That would be a genuine death wish."
Gongsun Lianxi thought about it and realized how unlikely that scenario was.
"Is the security at Changqi Academy really that strict?" Lin Han probed.
"Strict? You really don't know anything, do you?" Gongsun Lianxi explained, "The moment you take your first step into Changqi Academy, your energy signature is already registered by the authorities up top. While they might not be watching your every move in real-time, every single action you take is recorded!"
"They monitor the students' status at all times. After all, there are quite a few scions of prestigious noble families here, so Changqi Academy naturally has to take matters seriously. Besides, as one of the Five Great Academies, safeguarding the students' safety is an absolute necessity."
"If the hardest place to infiltrate in our Starlight Empire is the Imperial Capital, then the second hardest is definitely the Five Great Academies!"
Hearing this, a deep shock rippled through Lin Han. Did that mean the higher-ups already knew he had visited the grove in the middle of the night?
However, what truly shocked him was how on earth that assassin had managed to slip inside!
For someone to break into Changqi Academy under such impenetrable defenses spoke volumes about the terrifying capabilities of the enemy faction—this was certainly no small-scale operation!
Lin Han then asked, "Is there truly no way for anyone to sneak in stealthily?"
Gongsun Lianxi pondered for a moment and replied, "Well, not completely impossible."
"What do you mean?"
"It's quite simple. You only need the ability to conceal your aura to an extreme degree. Take an Assassin God, for example!"
"If an Assassin God wanted to infiltrate Changqi Academy, it wouldn't be too difficult. After all, the director in charge of this sector is only around the Supremacy Realm."
"Combined with an Assassin God's formidable aura-concealing abilities, breaching Changqi Academy should be a breeze."
Gongsun Lianxi analyzed the situation earnestly, failing to notice that Lin Han's expression had already frozen.
An Academy that could only be infiltrated by an Assassin God had somehow been successfully breached yesterday by a Diamond-rank powerhouse, who even managed to slip directly into their dormitory. If not for Gongsun Lianxi's protective talisman, he probably would have died right here last night.
If that person's target hadn't been this room last night, some students might already be dead.
This matter demanded the utmost attention, and he could not afford to act rashly. The forces lurking behind that individual might be far more terrifying than he had imagined.
When exactly had he been targeted by such a terrifying organization?
"Don't worry, even a Supremacy Realm expert wouldn't just waltz in casually. After all, offending an academy backed by a Saint-grade powerhouse isn't a smart trade-off," Gongsun Lianxi said casually.

Lin Han casually chimed in, "That's right, unless that person truly has a death wish."
Yet, what happened last night had been deeply harrowing to him, because that terrifying event had actually occurred!
Teng Xinqi, sitting nearby, picked up his phone and said, "Take a look at the school forum from last night. Someone posted a photo of a guy carrying three people like a human pagoda."
"Let me see, let me see." Yuan Si immediately leaned over and exclaimed in amazement, "How much did these guys drink? Gotta hand it to the guy carrying them, though—he's got some serious strength."
"That's nothing," Teng Xinqi remarked. "Any Warrior could easily pull that off. But haven't you guys noticed? Why do these people look kind of familiar?"
"Now that you mention it, they do look a bit familiar..."
"It's like we've seen them somewhere before..."
The others chimed in one by one, then looked at each other and exclaimed in unison, "Damn it, isn't this just us?!"
"Why did something so humiliating spread all over the school the moment we arrived?!" Yuan Si found it hard to accept.
The person carrying the three of them in that photo was none other than Lin Han himself.
Lin Han, however, remained unbothered. "It's fine. Nobody cares about trivial matters like this. Besides, with a face that blurry, who could possibly recognize that it's us?"
Yuan Si felt a slight headache coming on and muttered, "I hope so. I don't want to lose my four-year romantic eligibility the moment I start college..."
"Same here!"
Even Gongsun Lianxi, who was usually composed and calm, couldn't help the twitch at the corner of his mouth. Coming from the prestigious Gongsun family, he valued his reputation immensely.
To lose one's composure on the very first day of college, of all days!
"Don't worry, I'll go talk to the forum moderator in a moment and pay them to take the post down," Gongsun Lianxi said. Others might not care about their reputations, but he certainly had to uphold his.
The other two instantly shot him looks of profound gratitude.
Right at that moment, a knock sounded at the door. "Is student Lin Han in?"
"I'm here!"
Lin Han called out and went to open the door. Who could possibly be looking for him at this hour? He didn't recall knowing anyone else in the academy yet.
When he opened the door, an ordinary-looking man came into view.
"And you are?" Lin Han asked instinctively.
"I am Jin Lin from the Student Union," Jin Lin introduced himself briefly.

"Senior Jin, what brings you here?"
"Director Qu wants to see you. Get yourself ready," Jin Lin said.
"Director Qu?" Lin Han thought for a moment and asked, "Do you mean Director Qu Fengyun?"
"Who else?" Jin Lin looked slightly surprised, but figuring they probably met during the admissions process, he didn't dwell on it.
"I understand. Where should I go to find him?"
"Director Qu said in the forest you went to last night..."
Upon hearing these words, Lin Han's pupils contracted, though he quickly regained his composure. "I understand. Thank you, Senior Jin."
"I'm just passing along a message. There's no rush; Director Qu is still in a meeting. You can go in an hour."
With that, Jin Lin turned and left.
"Safe travels, Senior Jin..."
Lin Han closed the door and slowly walked back to his desk.
The forest from last night?
Wasn't that where he had eliminated that cultist? Could it be that the directors already knew everything?
What could they possibly want with him today?
Were they planning to question him about the specifics, or did they harbor suspicions about him?
At this thought, Lin Han sighed inwardly. "What grounds do they even have to suspect me now? I'm practically the picture of a model student."
"If the academy's higher-ups wanted to suspect me, they probably would have made a move by now. It shouldn't be a big deal; I'll just improvise when the time comes."
"Bro Han, let's go grab something to eat," Yuan Si called out suddenly.
"I'll pass. Director Qu's going to see me shortly, so I need to step out. You guys go ahead without me."
