If I let you practice martial arts, you'll compress your vital energy ten thousand times?

After the Blood Elder disappeared.

The entire Seventh Safe Zone remained in turmoil for a long time.

The cheers from the civilian area were transmitted back to the playground of Gaowu No. 1 Middle School through military surveillance.

On the playground.

All the students were watching the energy light screen.

Some people turned pale.

Someone was breathing rapidly.

Some people are still in shock from what just happened.

Blood-stained elder.

It really happened.

Moreover, the suppression of the Black Gate rift was carried out openly under the watchful eyes of everyone.

That's not a rumor.

It was footage captured by the city's surveillance cameras!

A blood-red mask.

Black robe.

An eight-armed phantom.

He suppressed the Black Tide with a single punch.

And that last sentence—

Who dares to touch her?

Whom do I kill?

These words are like an invisible brand, deeply engraved in everyone's heart.

They subconsciously looked at Lin Yuan in the light screen of the Dragon Gate Tower.

Lin Yuan is still inside the tower.

Old school uniform.

Qi and Blood Realm, Level 1.

His face was slightly pale.

It looks like it has just recovered from the impact of pollution.

But now, no one dares to look at him with the same eyes as before.

waste?

Perhaps Lin Yuan himself is still a useless person.

But so what?

This is trash protected by a humanoid restricted zone.

Who dares to mess with us?

Who's worthy to mess with them?

Zhao Hai's face flushed with excitement, and he muttered a curse under his breath:

"Now who dares to say that Brother Yuan isn't worthy?"

"Their master just suppressed the Black Gate!"

"Anyone who disagrees, let him go talk to Senior Bloodthirsty!"

When the students nearby heard this, not one of them objected.

In the past, they would have thought Zhao Hai was bragging.

But now.

They just felt that what he said made a lot of sense.

……

Inside the Longmen Pagoda.

The pollution lockdown is beginning to be lifted.

The dark blue cracks on the tower gradually died down.

Although the energy core was severely damaged, the contamination of the Black Gate had been cleared.

The instructors at Longyuan Academy breathed a long sigh of relief as they looked at the backend data.

"The pollution index has dropped to zero."

"The lockdown inside the tower has been lifted."

"Rescue is possible."

Su Zhan said in a deep voice:

"Get into the tower immediately."

The military rescue team quickly entered the Lungmen Tower.

After a while.

Lin Yuan was brought out.

His old school uniform was a bit disheveled, and there was a tear in the cuff.

His complexion was slightly paler than usual.

The breathing rate was still very low.

By any measure, he doesn't seem like the person who just stirred up the entire Dragon Gate Tower.

The moment he stepped out of the tower gate.

Countless eyes fell on him.

Lin Yuan looked up and glanced around.

calm.

indifferent.

It was as if the out-of-control review, the Black Gate invasion, and the Blood-Stained Senior's public suppression of the civilian district had nothing to do with him.

Su Qinghan looked at him, her heart filled with indescribable complex emotions.

She knew perfectly well that Lin Yuan was still inside the tower.

Blood-faced senior did indeed appear in the civilian area.

But for some reason, she always felt that Lin Yuan was too calm.

He was so calm, as if everything was under his control.

Luo Xingshuang was completely relieved.

At least in her opinion, Lin Yuan and Senior Bloodstained could never be the same person.

Lin Yuan was a disciple highly valued by Senior Xueqian.

Just then.

Another rescue team also brought Han Zhaoye out.

Compared to Lin Yuan, Han Zhaoye was in a much worse state.

The dark blue Dragon Abyss Academy battle suit was severely damaged.

His face was pale.

A trace of blood remained at the corner of his mouth.

Most importantly, the arrogance that he had when he first arrived was gone from his eyes.

He didn't want to admit it.

But inside the tower, he almost couldn't hold on.

But the person who finally stood in front of him was none other than Lin Yuan, whom he had always looked down upon.

Gu Changye walked up to Han Zhaoye and spoke gently:

"Classmate Han."

"Who saved you when the corrupted beasts inside the tower attacked you?"

Han Zhaoye's body stiffened.

The whole place fell silent.

Everyone looked at him.

Han Zhaoye gritted his teeth, his face extremely pale.

He really wanted to say it wasn't Lin Yuan.

She really wanted to say that she didn't need Lin Yuan to save her.

When the surveillance cameras inside the tower were restored, everyone saw it.

He knelt on the ground.

Lin Yuan stood in front of him.

The polluted beasts vanished completely.

This cannot be denied.

After a long silence, Han Zhaoye finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth:

"It's Lin Yuan."

boom!

A low murmur instantly rose from the playground.

A genius from Longyuan Academy.

Early stage of Xuanhai realm.

He actually admitted that Lin Yuan had saved him.

Even though everyone knows that Lin Yuan mostly relies on the protective mark left by the Blood Elder.

But that statement itself is enough to slap him in the face.

Gu Changye continued to ask:

"How do you think he managed to do it?"

Han Zhaoye's face flushed red.

He took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his humiliation.

"It should be a protective measure left by the Blood Elder."

"When the corrupted beast appeared inside the tower, I sensed fluctuations in the Crimson Lotus attribute."

"Those corrupted beast shadows were suppressed by the protective seal."

Upon hearing this, many people actually felt relieved.

reasonable.

That makes perfect sense.

Lin Yuan himself was still at the first level of the Qi and Blood Realm.

But he has the protective mark left by his predecessor in blood.

Therefore, he was able to withstand the heavy pressure.

It can also save lives in polluted spaces.

They even saved Han Zhaoye.

Instructor Longyuan nodded as well.

"The backend system did detect fluctuations in the external seal multiple times."

"Considering the public appearance of the Blood-Stained Elder in the civilian district, it can be concluded that Lin Yuan should possess a protective mechanism left behind by that elder."

"This does not violate the review rules."

"Special protection is itself part of the value of special admission."

Upon hearing this, Han Zhaoye's expression turned even more unpleasant.

Special protection.

To put it bluntly, Lin Yuan himself can be weak.

But the people behind him are too powerful.

It is so powerful that even Longyuan Academy must acknowledge its value.

Gu Changye turned to look at the instructors at Longyuan Academy.

"So what was the result of the review?"

The mentor remained silent for a moment.

Then, in front of the entire school, he slowly announced:

"The subject of the review is Lin Yuan."

"First level of Qi and Blood Realm".

"Low basic martial arts talent."

"However, during the Lungmen retrial, he remained stable, his mind did not break down, and he did not lose control during the pollution crisis."

"And under the protection of a special protective seal, they assisted in rescuing Han Zhaoye, a student from Longyuan Academy."

"Considering its value as a protector of ancient body cultivators and the recommendation from the Seventh Army."

"Longyuan Academy confirmed—"

The tutor paused.

Everyone in the room held their breath.

"Lin Yuan's S-level guaranteed admission qualification."

"Review approved."

boom!

The playground was completely destroyed.

It's approved!

One Qi and Blood Realm Level 1.

A good-for-nothing who has been ridiculed by everyone for a long time.

They actually passed the S-level recommendation review for admission to Longyuan Academy!

Even with the protection of the Blood Elder.

Even if it's just because of that humanoid forbidden zone behind him.

But a result is a result.

The seal was personally affixed by Longyuan Academy.

The Sky Patrol Division was present to supervise the operation.

The entire process was witnessed by the Seventh Army.

From this moment on, anyone who says Lin Yuan is unworthy is questioning the results of Longyuan Academy's own review.

Lin Yuan stood in the center of the crowd.

His expression remained calm.

He didn't even glance at the tutor.

His gaze was fixed solely on Han Zhaoye.

Han Zhaoye's face turned ashen.

He knew that Lin Yuan was about to speak.

really.

Lin Yuan put his hands in his pockets and spoke calmly:

"Now."

Am I worthy?

boom!

This statement is even harsher than the review result.

On the playground, everyone subconsciously looked at Han Zhaoye.

Because before the retrial even began, it was Han Zhaoye who personally questioned Lin Yuan:

After leaving your master, what do you have left?

It was also Han Zhaoye who mocked him for not being worthy of using the Longmen Tower for a retrial.

But now.

Lin Yuan passed.

Han Zhao knelt down that night.

Han Zhaoye was also saved by Lin Yuan.

The question, "Am I worthy?" was like an invisible slap in the face, landing hard on Han Zhaoye's cheek.

Han Zhaoye's face turned bright red.

He wanted to argue.

But he couldn't utter a single word.

Because Lin Yuan actually passed.

He really did lose.

The entire room fell silent.

No one dared to laugh.

But everyone knew that Han Zhaoye's face had been slapped through.

Zhao Hai was so excited he almost jumped up.

"Cool!"

"That feels so good!"

"Who just said Brother Yuan wasn't good enough?"

"Why aren't you saying anything now?"

The homeroom teacher stood at the back of the crowd, looking at Lin Yuan in the center of the playground, his feelings extremely complicated.

He was once a student whom the whole school considered a waste.

Today, in front of everyone, I secured a spot in the S-level recommendation review for admission to Longyuan Academy.

Just a few days ago, he wouldn't have dared to even think about this.

Su Zhan watched this scene and finally let out a slow breath.

passed.

Lin Yuan's admission to university is now completely secured.

More importantly, through this incident, everyone in the Seventh Security Zone will understand:

Lin Yuan and his sister are not to be touched.

The senior figure behind them, who is known for his bloodlust, will actually take action.

They really dared to make a move in front of the entire city.

Gu Changye stood aside, watching quietly.

The review is over.

On the surface, he completed the procedures required by the central government.

Lin Yuan is at the first level of the Qi and Blood Realm.

Blood-Stained Senior did indeed appear independently in the civilian area.

All the evidence points to:

Lin Yuan was just a special student protected by the Blood Elder.

But Gu Changye still hadn't completely let go of the past.

Because it's too perfect.

This retrial was so perfect that it seemed as if someone had turned the tables on them.

He set up the Dragon Gate Pagoda.

As a result, Lin Yuan passed the review.

He wanted to verify the relationship between Lin Yuan and Senior Blood.

As a result, the senior member of the Blood Sect made a public appearance, clearing Lin Yuan of the biggest suspicion.

He wanted to use the Dragon Tower to force out the anomaly.

All the anomalies were explained away by the "Blood Senior's Protective Seal".

Even the enormous loss of the Lungmen Tower's energy core can be explained as the consumption caused by the protective seal's resistance against the Black Gate's contamination.

Everything makes sense.

It's so reasonable it's unsettling.

Lin Yuan stepped down from the review table.

As he passed by Gu Changye, Gu Changye suddenly spoke gently:

"Congratulations."

Lin Yuan paused slightly.

He glanced at Gu Changye.

"Your tower is quite nice."

Done.

He continued walking forward.

His tone was very calm.

It sounded like a casual comment.

But Gu Changye's pupils contracted almost imperceptibly.

The tower is nice?

What does that mean?

What does he know?

Or was it just something he said offhand?

Just then, the adjutant hurried over and reported in a low voice:

"grown ups."

"The Lungmen Tower Energy report is out."

Gu Changye took the report.

My gaze fell on the last line of numbers.

Energy core loss: 97%.

Gu Changye remained silent.

Ninety-seven percent.

A tower of trials at the Dragon Gate, laden with trials.

It only underwent one review.

It was almost completely drained.

There is, of course, an official explanation.

Black Gate Intrusion.

Pollution blockade.

Red Lotus Protector intervenes.

The elder in the blood-stained face provides remote protection.

All these factors combined are enough to cause enormous losses.

But once again, that absurd idea surfaced in Gu Changye's mind.

It wasn't the protective seal that consumed the tower.

Someone ate the tower dry.

He looked up at Lin Yuan's departing figure.

Old school uniform.

His steps were steady.

There was nothing unusual about it.

Gu Changye stared at it for a long time.

Finally, he opened his investigation notes.

Below Lin Yuan's name, write a line of text:

The possibility that Lin Yuan shares the same identity as the senior blood elder has decreased.

The pen paused for a moment.

He added:

However, the possibility of clones, substitutes, or unknown ancient cultivation techniques cannot be ruled out.

After writing.

His gaze slowly moved downwards.

It landed on another name.

Lin Xiaoya.

Gu Changye said softly:

"The line with my brother has been blocked."

"Where's my sister?"

far away.

Lin Yuan seemed to have sensed something.

His steps did not stop.

His eyes, however, turned slightly cold for a moment.

Gu Changye.

You'd better not cross the line.

Otherwise, next time.

It's not just about emptying a tower.
