Evolving infinitely from ground zero - Chapter 194:
Chapter 194: 146, My brother Chen has an invincible demeanor.
It was approaching 9 p.m.
Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan arrived at the Shanhai City security headquarters and received a warm welcome from the security team.
Because of the media storm before the college entrance examination, nearly all the residents of Shanhai City recognized Lin Zichen.
They knew he was the second top scorer in the Nanjiang Province college entrance examination.
Thus, they greeted him with smiles all the way, their attitude enthusiastic.
What does it mean to be the second top scorer in a college entrance exam?
It meant a future where he was bound to become a “Sage”!
Who wouldn’t welcome him warmly?
Hearing the security team members address him repeatedly as the second top scorer, Shen Qinghan really wanted to tell them:
—— You’re thinking too small, my Xiao Chen is not just the second top scorer, but also the New King of Shanhai University!
She thought that if the mere title of provincial second top scorer could make the security team so enthusiastic, wouldn’t they be stunned speechless if they knew Lin Zichen was the New King of Shanhai University?
Tsk tsk, just thinking about that scene is beautiful.
It’s a pity, the information barrier within Shanhai University is just too high.
Those inside seldom go out, and those outside can’t get in.
With this double layer in effect, most people outside are basically clueless about the inside happenings, which also causes Lin Zichen’s prestige as the New King to be unrecognizable outside the campus.
“It’s so frustrating, I really want to grab a megaphone and promote Xiao Chen a bit…”
Shen Qinghan murmured to herself.
From her childhood to her adulthood, she has always been Lin Zichen’s number one fan, and her favorite thing to do is see Lin Zichen show off in public, filling her with pride over her man’s prowess.
Seeing that Lin Zichen had a chance to show off in public but didn’t take it, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.
“I have a godson named Luo Yongjian, the top scorer from Dajiang Province and also a freshman this year. He’s in the talent class, do you know him?”
The captain of tonight’s security team, a middle-aged man with a square face and graying temples, asked with a smile as he looked at the two.
The top scorer from Dajiang Province, Luo Yongjian?
Lin Zichen found the name familiar and, after racking his brain, realized it was a challenger he had kicked away during the school’s opening trials.
It was that robust young man who had just stepped onto the Martial Stage and had been sent flying with a kick before he could even boast about his achievements.
While Lin Zichen was recalling these events, Shen Qinghan said to the square-faced captain:
“Yes, I know him. Luo Yongjian’s strength ranks in the top five of the talent class, and he is skilled with the sword, quite popular with the girls. I often see girls chasing after him.”
Shen Qinghan had a very deep impression of Luo Yongjian.
However, it wasn’t because he was extremely capable and somewhat handsome.
But because the guy was simply too pretentious.
He would dress in ancient-style white robes every day, carry a long sword on his back, prance around like a swordsman from a martial arts novel, and liked to strut around like a model. It was hard not to have a deep impression of him.
Many girls thought he looked cool like that, but Shen Qinghan found it too conspicuous, foolishly so.
She felt Lin Zichen’s style was better, typically low-key and only showing his sanctity on occasion.
The square-faced captain didn’t know what Shen Qinghan was thinking, but upon hearing her say this, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Seems my godson is quite famous in Shan University, even the students from the Martial Arts College know him.”
He knew that Lin Zichen had joined the Tianren Pavilion and was now a student at the Martial Arts College. The captain assumed that Shen Qinghan, who accompanied Lin Zichen, was also a student there.
Lin Zichen didn’t bother to correct him and politely replied with a smile, “Indeed famous, a lot of people know him.”
“With great strength comes fame,” he added.
Afterward, the square-faced captain continued with a tone of regret, “It’s a pity, student Zi Chen, with your high talent, if you hadn’t joined the Tianren Pavilion, you could have also been in the talent class and be classmates with my godson.”
“Really, take my advice and quit the Tianren Pavilion as soon as possible to transfer to the Evolution College.”
“That what’s-its-name Tianren Pavilion, since its establishment, has ruined many talents by making them indistinguishable from the masses, staying there one more second is a waste of life.”
The square-faced captain, used to leading a team as a small authority figure, was fond of giving advice.
Seeing that Lin Zichen was still a student and young, he couldn’t help but adopt an elder’s posture and start lecturing him.
Lin Zichen wasn’t buying it, but he didn’t argue, simply smiling politely without saying anything.
Realizing that Lin Zichen was silent, the square-faced captain also sensed that he was being too nosy.
Once someone reaches middle age, it’s easy to be overtalkative and inclined to lecture the younger generation.
He thought he needed to change this habit to avoid offending people…
Thinking this, the square-faced captain, in an attempt to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, smiled and changed the subject, “Right, about tonight’s operation, I’ve invited my godson to join and gain some real combat experience. He should be almost here.”
“Once he arrives, you could take the opportunity to participate in the operation with him, add him on WeChat and make friends.”
“My godson is quite approachable, and he likes to help the downtrodden. If any older students bully you at the university, just reach out to him, and he will definitely step in.”
The square-faced captain had heard about the survival-of-the-fittest tradition of Shanhai University and knew that upperclassmen liked to bully freshmen in the inner campus area.
But they were bullies who feared the tough and only picked on students from regular classes.
As for the future stars of the talent class, the upperclassmen would not dare to bother them.
After all, these future stars of the talent class were destined to have a bright future, and the upperclassmen were afraid of offending these talents now, in case they were retaliated against later.
“Godfather, I’m here!”
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
Just as the square-faced captain was talking about his godson, the godson showed up.
