Chapter 172: Points Secured!
"Points." Lin Han smiled faintly and said, "I don't have a point card right now, so I'll just leave them with you. I'll collect them from you when I get a point card."
"Ah... alright." Tian Yi was momentarily stunned. Amidst his recent actions, he had almost forgotten that this guy was still a freshman.
Can a priest really be this strong?
"Then I'll be leaving, I'll look for you later," Lin Han said casually. Surely, in such a massive Changqi Academy, he didn't need to worry about the guy running away, right?
At worst, he could just ask Director Qu to uphold justice for him then.
After all, with that matter held firmly in his hands, this little thing should pose no problem at all.
Tian Yi watched Lin Han's retreating back in a daze, suddenly feeling that this guy seemed somewhat imposing. Finally, he let out a helpless sigh and muttered, "Time to pack up, pack up the stall."
After all, he was out doing business, and he had considered the possibility of taking a loss one day. Moreover, he knew very well that the world was full of freaks.
Like Senior Sister Jiang...
When Lin Han returned to the others, Yuan Si said excitedly, "Brother Han, we made two million in just a single day!"
"It hasn't been cashed out yet, so it doesn't count," Lin Han said with a smile.
"I haven't paid my money yet..." Gongsun Lianxi only just realized that his side of the money had not been settled yet.
Lin Han looked at Tian Yi's departing figure and said, "We can settle it together when he comes looking for me."
He still held some favorable impressions of Tian Yi. After all, the other party wasn't arrogant or domineering, and wasn't a sore loser; he could be considered a fair person. Compared to Zhang Jianan, they were worlds apart in character, with a chasm of difference in their mentalities.
"I suppose that's the only way for now."
...
The group strolled around the campus for a bit before returning to their dormitories. After several days of rest and recuperation, the day of the freshman welcome ceremony finally arrived.
"Brother Han, let's go."
Yuan Si leaped straight down from his bed, unable to conceal the excitement on his face. Ever since hearing Gongsun Lianxi's account, he had been looking forward to this freshman welcome ceremony all the more.
Lin Han said, "Alright, let's go join in the fun too."
Has this day finally arrived?
Lin Han was also filled with anticipation. What he wanted was that ten percent share!
This was a crucial prerequisite for acquiring the Source of Natural Disasters!
The group arrived at the venue of the freshman welcome ceremony, where over a thousand people had already gathered. Not only freshmen, but quite a few senior students had also come to join in the excitement.
"Lin Han!!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind them, and the group turned around one after another.
"Senior Tian Yi?" Lin Han asked, somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected the other party to take the initiative to greet them.
Tian Yi smiled and said, "I just came to soak in the atmosphere and see if there are any prodigies among this year's freshmen. I didn't expect to run into you here."
"Senior, what a coincidence. Care to join us?" Lin Han asked probing.
"Let's go, hanging out with those guys isn't that interesting anyway."
Tian Yi readily agreed. Afterward, the group walked together into the freshman welcome ceremony. With Tian Yi leading the way, they saved themselves quite a bit of trouble, quickly finding a spot and sitting down.
"Senior, is your class the Vajra Warrior?" Gongsun Lianxi asked suddenly.
"That's right."
"No wonder that day felt so peculiar."
"You're not bad yourself, kid. Your attacks were quite sharp, though I couldn't quite tell what your class was." Tian Yi still remembered this grievance... friend.
Gongsun Lianxi replied, "I am a Gunman."
"Someone from the Gongsun family?" Tian Yi asked doubtfully.
"Yes, my name is Gongsun Lianxi."
"I see. I once executed a mission with your older sister. If I recall correctly, you should be Gongsun Qian'er's younger brother."
"You know my sister?" Gongsun Lianxi said excitedly.
"We're not close, just completed one mission together. That girl handles a gun quite gracefully, it's just that she's a bit difficult to get along with." Tian Yi pointed to his heart and said, "Too many schemes!"
Lin Han nodded in earnest agreement with this point!
Not a single person among the Five Great Families was easy to deal with, and that Gongsun Qian'er was an absolute vixen. She genuinely loved to muddy the waters of every situation just to reap some benefits.
Gongsun Lianxi smiled awkwardly. He naturally knew what kind of mindset his older sister had, so Tian Yi wasn't wrong at all.
"However, seeing that you're well-mannered, you're quite different from them. Back in my junior year, I even offended the young master of the Ma family. That guy was truly arrogant and domineering, but he couldn't beat me and didn't give me much trouble afterwards."
"Still, I heard that guy got crippled by someone and is still living in the intensive care unit."
"I don't know which hero's handiwork that was, but they completely rid Changqi Academy of a pest!"
Tian Yi wore an excited expression on his face. He had always looked down on these scions of aristocratic families who clearly relied entirely on their family's resources yet possessed no real skill.
Lin Han smiled and said, "I really wouldn't know about that."
As he spoke, Lin Han caught sight of a familiar face in the distance—Senior Sister Feng Yunxin!
Because she had helped him out on multiple occasions previously, he held a rather favorable impression of this senior sister, and he hadn't expected her to be here as well.
"Yunxin, look, isn't that guy the one we ran into before?" You Shanshan tugged at her sleeve and said.
Feng Yunxin looked over and said, "It really is him. Since he's a freshman, it's only natural for him to come and watch this competition."
"Look, is that fellow looking at you?"
"Huh?" Feng Yunxin was startled, but following the direction of Lin Han's gaze, it indeed seemed like he was looking right at their side.
Could he really be looking at me?
You Shanshan clicked her tongue and said, "And here we thought we helped him before. Turns out he was actually eyeing your body, Yunxin. What a little pervert."
"Shanshan, stop talking nonsense. If other people heard this, how would Lin Han manage to get along with anyone here in the future?" Feng Yunxin quickly reprimanded.
"Yunxin, you're just too kind-hearted. Zhang Jianan has done so many outrageous things; if I were you, I would have broken ties with her long ago. Not beating her to death is already my lady's mercy."
"Now that Zhang Jianan hasn't been dealt with yet, along comes another little pervert. It really is exhausting. Still, compared to Zhang Jianan, this little pervert isn't half bad—tall and somewhat handsome."
"If all else fails, you might as well just yield to this little pervert. Not a bad choice at all."
Listening to You Shanshan's words, Feng Yunxin froze. She actually found herself making comparisons in her mind!
How could I possibly have feelings for a junior student?!
"If you talk nonsense again, I won't talk to you anymore," Feng Yunxin said, feigning sternness, putting on an act of severing all ties.
"Hehe, I know you can't bear to ignore me, Yunxin."
