People at the practical education center only want to drop out.

This made him feel very empty.

Unfortunately, Longyuan's gang didn't take the opportunity to attack.

If they dare to lay a hand on Bai Lan, she can retaliate without any psychological burden and earn a punishment.

This will significantly reduce his workload in dealing with dropping out of school in the future.

Seeing Ryuen's disheveled state, Ibuki shook her head and said with a regretful expression, "You fell before I even made a move. That doesn't count for today. Once you've recovered, I'll challenge you to another duel!"

"Wait!" Bai Lan exclaimed anxiously upon hearing this.

Why is there a "fight" going on?

Bai Lan said to Yi Bu, "His next time is mine too, you can't take it from me!"

Ibuki looked bewildered: "Why? Why can't I take it from you? You've already fought him once, shouldn't it be my turn now?"

Bai Lan: "You owe me a favor."

"I don't know."

“I saw you surrounded by Long Yuan and his gang and felt you were in danger. I intervened to save you, so you owe me a favor.”

"But I don't need your help. I was the one who initiated the fight."

"Huh? Do you have to ask the victim first before you act as a Good Samaritan, and wait for them to confirm that they 'need' it before you take action? That would be such a waste of time! By the time you've wasted that time, the victim might have already been harmed!"

After hearing Bai Lan's words, Yi Bu looked serious, thought about it carefully, and then nodded: "That makes sense."

Bai Lan continued, "Therefore, when the time is right, you should act decisively, even if it means taking risks!"

Ibuki was filled with fervor: "You're right! This is the code of conduct for us!"

Bai Lan: "Look, I'm taking a risk by saving you. Once I do, whether you need me or not, I might be surrounded and attacked by the large and powerful Longyuan gang. It's very dangerous!"

When Bai Lan said this, Long Yuan's underlings subconsciously looked at Long Yuan, who was still lying on the ground unable to get up.

Let's look at those people who were just sent flying by Bai Lan like human bowling balls.

They really couldn't see that Bai Lan looked like she might be in danger.

Having just recovered from the pain, Long Yuan felt like he had a million curses to utter upon hearing Bai Lan's words.

Then, when the pain was brought up again, a loud "Ouch!" silenced all the profanities.

Ibuki, being a bit of a simpleton, didn't notice any of this. She just thought what Bai Lan said made a lot of sense, so she nodded and said, "That seems to be true. Thanks, then."

Ignoring the reactions of the others, Bai Lan continued, "In other words, regardless of whether things succeed or not, I have done everything I could for you and taken risks for you. So, shouldn't you owe me this favor?"

"That's absolutely right!"

"Since you've accepted my favor, then you owe me one. In that case, give me the chance to fight Longyuan next time. What's wrong with that? You just need to wait one more round. Root doesn't need to pay anything."

"It sounds like I'm the one who got the better deal, and you're the one who lost out!"

"It seems so. Are you willing to take advantage of this?"

"As a martial artist, one must have martial ethics. The education I received does not allow me to take advantage of others!"

"Since you put it that way, then how about this..."

I don't know how to do it, but I know it's a long time

"How about it?"

Bai Lan looked around and then said, "I don't want them to know, so let's go over there and talk."

"it is good."

Immediately afterwards, under the watchful eyes of Ryuen's group, Bai Lan and Yi Bu left the encirclement as if no one was around.

Because of Bai Lan's fighting prowess and Long Yuan's gestures, none of Long Yuan's underlings dared to stand in front of Bai Lan.

After walking a certain distance and realizing that Ryuen and the others couldn't hear her, Bai Lan finally spoke to Ibuki:

san yi er ba yi si yi san jiu

Once Longyuan recovers his fighting strength, you must let me know so I can come and duel him in time.

"Uh...okay!"

"Then, when he recovers, you must tell me as well."

"Huh? Why should I?"

"Don't worry, next time I won't ask you to let me win. We'll compete fairly. We'll start at the same time and from the same position. Whoever hits the Dragon Garden first gets to engage the monster, and the other person gets to fight the Dragon Garden. How about that?"

"Great! That's fair!"

"Then it's settled?"

"That's a deal!"

"Okay, let me add an ID."

"Ok."

Drop~

And so, under Bai Lan's persuasion, Ibuki from Class C became Bai Lan's "Ryuen Health Monitor".

68. It's a waste of time to fight.

After Bai Lan left, Long Yuan's underlings couldn't help but question Long Yuan:

"Longyuan, are we just going to let them leave like this?"

"I think that although that guy's outburst looked scary, he actually relied on a sneak attack."

"He attacked from the shadows, he doesn't know any martial ethics, so we don't need to follow the rules of the martial world either. There are many of us, and he's only one person. As long as we fight side by side, he might not be able to win!"

"Where did your unwavering spirit go? Why are you such a coward? And you're making us cowards with you? I really misjudged you! You're not fit to lead us!"

Hearing these words, Long Yuan, who had finally recovered somewhat, couldn't help but grit his teeth and say through gritted teeth, "You idiots! This is clearly a trap!"

"A trap?" the henchmen asked, puzzled.

Long Yuan continued, enduring the pain, "I know that guy. He's the one who caused all those injuries on my body!"

When the past is mentioned, Long Yuan can't help but grit his teeth in hatred, his teeth aching from clenching them.

Hearing Long Yuan say this, the underlings were even more puzzled.

"Huh? Just because he hit you before, you backed down? You're scared of him? Where's your indomitable spirit? Lead us to get revenge on him and get back at him! No way! You're leading so many people but you don't dare fight back?"

"Yeah yeah......"

"What do you know?"

Long Yuan shouted angrily, "That guy only seems reckless and impulsive on the surface, but he's actually very cunning. I almost fell for his trick last time!"

After thinking for a while, Long Yuan decided to tell the whole story of what happened to Bai Lan on the day she enrolled.

In Long Yuan's view, although telling his underlings about his dark history of being utterly defeated by Bai Lan in both cunning and martial arts would inevitably damage the image of invincibility he had worked so hard to build, and cause those who had submitted to him because of his rudeness to become disloyal, upon closer examination, he realized that he could not actually hide his defeat at all.

Rather than trying to cover it up and letting others see your guilty conscience, it's better to be open and honest and take the initiative to reveal it.

This actually made them seem very confident, giving the underlings the impression that they had a plan to deal with Bai Lan, thus stabilizing morale.

In addition, Longyuan wanted to take this opportunity to establish a strong rival to unite the students. After all, class competition was something that had to be faced. In the long run, class competition was related to their treatment after graduation, and in the short term, it was related to their living expenses. In short, class competition could not be ignored!

Bai Lan from another class is a formidable enemy they will have to face sooner or later. The stronger Bai Lan becomes, the more Class C needs a strong and clear-headed leader to unite the disorganized group in order to have a chance of winning; otherwise, they will undoubtedly lose.

In this way, the necessity and legitimacy of Longyuan's unified classes are greatly enhanced!

Soon, Long Yuan finished recounting his ordeal.

"That's how it is. If I hadn't discovered the trap back then and had been lured into reporting him, I would have gotten deeper and deeper into trouble, and eventually he would have even used the recordings as evidence to blackmail me!"

Fortunately, I was quick-witted and saw through his scheme in time. I realized that he was only pursuing his own interests and didn't care much about class competition. Otherwise, he wouldn't have so easily sold out information that had such a huge impact on class competition.

Upon learning that he prioritized personal gain, I decisively offered 50 points—equivalent to a significant portion of my future earnings—to secure a settlement and eliminate this potential threat!

When talking about his cleverness, Long Yuan couldn't help but show a smug smile.

"That's 50! What a loss!" Looking at Long Yuan's smug expression, one of his underlings couldn't understand what Long Yuan was so proud of and couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Long Yuan immediately cursed, "You idiot! 50 was only my value when I first enrolled!"

If I wait until I've unified the entire Class C and become its representative before considering reconciliation...

That's not something that can be solved with 50!

He's going to bleed the whole class dry!

He can get our class to make offerings to him every month just by going through me.

By then, after three years, we will have to pay far more than 50.

500 million isn't enough!

It might even be more than 5000 million!

Furthermore, if I am blackmailed by him, it will be very difficult for me to lead Class C, to unite you scattered individuals into a cohesive unit, or even to contribute to the class. That would be cutting off our foundation! The entire Class C would lose its competitiveness!

"Is it possible that the guy named Bai Lan really didn't record it? He wasn't actually that scheming, and you're just overthinking it, Long Yuan?" one of the underlings asked.

Long Yuan: "Impossible! How could a simple-minded person deduce so much information to sell in such a short time? His mind is definitely very complex and he is very good at scheming. Therefore, you can't be too careful about all his seemingly simple actions."

"Then why did he suddenly come over and kick you today?" the younger brother asked.

Long Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I think he's pressing me for repayment and forcing me to 'provide additional compensation'!"

"Debt collection?"

"Additional compensation?"

"First, there's the debt collection. I owe him 42 in settlement compensation and 100 million in intelligence fees."

The intelligence fee, in particular, is something I need to pay off within this month.

"And it's almost the end of the month. Although I haven't unified Class C yet, I already have nearly twenty people under me. 1 million is just 50,000 per person. In other words, I already have the ability to repay. Seeing that I have the ability to repay, he doesn't want to wait until the end of the month, so he plans to use violence to force me to repay the money sooner."

"No? Why is he so sure that if he beat you up, you'll pay him back? If he hit you, why can't we fight back? And isn't he afraid we'll use the fact that he beat up a classmate to blackmail him?"

"Because I cannot oppose him until I have paid the settlement and the blackmail is lifted, he can report me at any time for 'robbing a huge sum of money' before I have completed the settlement.

Compared to 'robbing a huge sum of money,' beating up a classmate is a trivial matter. In any case, my punishment will be many times heavier than his!
