Chapter 348: Who Is This Brat?Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The door of the flying shuttle opened, and numerous young men and women walked out. They had their heads held high and chests puffed up. Their faces were filled with pride and arrogance while the aura radiating from them was immensely powerful. All of them were actually at the level of grand cultivators and above.
This was the last batch of geniuses from the examinations, and they succeeded in killing their way out of the ranking battles. Thus, each of them must have shocking combat prowess.
RUMBLE~
The sounds of gun salutations rang out in the Great Wall University. The scene was extremely grand, welcoming the last batch of exam candidates.
“Quickly look, these are all the geniuses who killed their way out from the final ranking battles!”
“I recognize the man in the lead, he is Donghuang Taichu. In the ranking battles, he got ranked the third, being defeated in the semi-finals. But it’s said that his combat strength isn’t any weaker compared to the second ranker. I heard that his background is from none other than the majestic Huaxia Great Clan, the Donghuang Clan. He didn’t select the Kunlun University and the Buzhou University on Huaxia’s territory but chose to come here instead. His cultivation base is already at the mid-phase of the grand cultivator realm, and his vitality stats has broken past 3,000, even the Great Wall University also had to pay a huge price to recruit him. Once he joins the university, he would obtain a special-grade scholars.h.i.+p and 50,000 contribution points. He would surely be someone that is heavily nurtured.”
“Awesome, his terrifying combat strength should have already surpa.s.sed many second-year students. He is absolutely the number one among freshmen! You must know that the other new students couldn’t even enter the top ten in the ranking battles. He is just too strong!”
…
There was a young man who stood at the forefront and clad in golden chinese-style robes with dragon patterns embroidered on them. He instantly attracted the attention of everyone when he appeared like he was a chosen of the heavens, the most important one when compared to everyone else.
Standing at the corner, Feng Lin silently observed this scene as his expression grew heavy.
Even for him, he could clearly feel the concentrated vitality and strength within this young man’s body. His aura felt like the flames of the blazing sun, capable of incinerating everything.
Rays of heat radiated from Donghuang Taichu’s eyes, wherever he turned his gaze to, a burning energy could be felt. Those whom he glanced at could feel a burning sensation on their skin.
Such a terrifying genius only managed to reach the third rank in the ranking compet.i.tion!
In that case, how powerful were the two others who were ranked before him?
There would always be someone more exceptional, there would always be a taller mountain.
Although Feng Lin had had some achievements after coming to the Great Wall University, he couldn’t afford to be careless.
When compared to these true geniuses of the universe, he was still too far from them.
Being suppressed by someone of the same age, Feng Lin could feel an intense pressure in his heart.
Hmm?
Donghuang Taichu’s expression was calm, so calm that he had no expressions. He seemed to have sensed something and glance over only to see a lanky figure leaving.
Before he noticed, Feng Lin had already left.
“Young Master Donghuang, what are you looking at?” A man walked over. This man had azure eyes and golden hair, radiating a clear feeling of n.o.bility.
“Augustus, when did you become a busy body?” Donghuang Taichu coldly spoke. His eyes gleamed with golden light, resembling flames as he stared at Feng Lin.
(This person has such a low cultivation base. Is he also a freshman here?)
Why had he never met him before?
Also, why did the genetic force from this person seem somewhat similar to his own?
…
He cast a deep glance at Feng Lin’s back as a spark of interest grew in his heart.
“Donghuang Taichu is the strongest freshman. The others might be a tier inferior compared to him, but they are all still considered peak geniuses in the universe. That Augustus came from the Rome Federation, and he is ranked #11, almost within the top ten!”
“That’s right. That Arthur Tragon is also ranked within the top fifty…”
“This person isn’t bad too, his vitality stat is 2,200, already broken through the 2,000 mark.”
…
The students from the Great Wall University started to comment on the freshmen, singing their praises.
These freshmen were all proud individuals and their auras extremely powerful.
The school opening ceremony had already started.
They walked in neat rows toward the public square. Even their steps were in unison, causing the ground to tremble.
As famous geniuses in the universe, they were used to being in the center of attention since they were young, basking in the looks of admiration. They didn’t need to adapt to this scene, in fact, it caused their confidence to soar even higher.
“Quickly look, that Feng Lin is here!”
“He can be considered a legendary character!”
“I heard that he managed to gain a connection with senior sister Zhao and excavated a mythological ruin!”
….
An uproar rang out.
The scene suddenly changed. Other than the surroundings around Donghuang Taichu and Augustus, everywhere else became empty. The atmosphere also fell silent.
The other new students all exchanged glances, completely not used to it.
It wasn’t easy for them to pa.s.s the universe ranking battle and now, they were actually being ignored and neglected? They naturally would feel awkward and depressed.
Feng Lin walked toward the public square where the school opening ceremony was held. As he walked over, many people turned their gazes toward him.
“He is Feng Lin?”
“It’s him! I was there at the side watching when he went to the military tribunal.”
“This fellow seems very capable. I heard that he recently excavated a mythological ruin and gained a million contribution points!”
“Although his cultivation base wasn’t high, I heard that his attainments in medicinal refinement and mythological knowledge are exceptional.”
…
There were many elites in the Great Wall University, so they had no lack of people with high cultivation. But as for Feng Lin, he just joined the school and already had so many achievements. It wasn’t something ordinary people could rival.
His name gradually got more famous. Everywhere he went by, people would crowd around to take a look at him. He could already be considered a legendary character of the university with some fame.
If based on popularity alone, these freshmen could be considered the top among all freshmen, but Feng Lin stood at a level higher than them.
The moment he appeared, he drew away a large portion of attention from the crowd.
…
“Who can tell us who that brat is?” Those freshmen were extremely puzzled and depressed.
It was one thing to be suppressed by those monstrous geniuses like Donghuang Taichu in the ranking battle. But after coming to the university, their radiance was actually masked by some unknown person?
How could these prideful new students endure such a thing?
“Brat, who are you?” A caucasian freshman with a muscular figure walked out. With his bulging muscles, he looked akin to a large white bear. He walked straight toward Feng Lin, seemingly intending to knock into him.
He had undergone the ranking battle and could confirm that he had never met Feng Lin before.
How strong could an exam candidate that couldn’t even make it to the ranking battle be?
(Most probably, he would shatter from a single touch!)
The muscular caucasian had a malevolent smile on his face. He decided to show the crowd that Feng Lin was a weakling.
However, Feng Lin merely gave him a glance in reply, a glance that was extremely cold and sharp.
What sort of gaze was that?
He felt completely ignored. The guy was instantly enraged.
Kacha, kacha~
Under his stunned gaze, Feng Lin transformed into a three-meter-tall giant.
Before he could react, the muscular caucasian felt a stifling aura boring down on him, knocking him back from the sheer intensity of the pressure.
This man just broke through to the grand cultivator realm, why would he want to look for trouble with his vitality stats barely breaking through 1,000 points?
Feng Lin couldn’t be bothered. He didn’t even glance at him and left directly.
These freshmen had looks of astonishment on their faces when they stared at his leaving figure.
“This man is still an elite cultivator but what a powerful vitality! His surname is Feng as well, could he be a descendant of the Feng Clan of Huaxia?
Donghuang Taichu stared at Feng Lin, his eyes flickering with a sinister light. He recalled the scenes during the ranking battle that had been broadcasted through the universe. He had been crus.h.i.+ngly defeated under the countless gazes of everyone by that invincible-looking silhouette.
“The Feng Clan? Hehe…”
