Chapter 23: Offending a Core Member

Stunned, she said to Lorne with some uncertainty, “Wait!”

“Student, is that an Ice Carp seedling in your hands?”

Gu Bingrui noticed Lorne walking toward her as soon as she entered the academy. She recognized what was in his backpack at a glance.

“That’s right.”

“May I know what the school belle is up to?”

“You can just call me Bingrui.”

Although it was their first time meeting, Gu Bingrui’s felt that Lorne was a good person as he did not stare at her as if she was a prize to be kept.

However, when the two people behind her heard Gu Bingrui’s words, their hearts were filled with displeasure. They looked at Lorne with anger.

“I wonder if you can sell this seedling to me? One of my Spirit Beasts just happens to need the Ice Carp Seedling to advance,” Gu Bingrui said.

“Sure.”

Originally, Lorne had prepared the sealed Dire Beast for his sister, Suke. It just so happened that there were two seedlings, and Lorne had planned to sell one as well. Since Gu Bingrui wanted one, Lorne would not refuse.

Anyway, the sealed Dire Beast was one of the Ice Carps.

“That’s actually a seedling of the Ice Carp…!”

“Oh my God!”

“How did that guy get the seedling of the Ice Carp, the Overlord-rank Dire Beast in the Academy’s Mystic Realm?”

“Could it be that he sealed the Ice Carp and robbed its nest?”

“Are you kidding me? The Ice Carp is an Overlord-rank Dire Beast. How could he have such strength?”

“His luck is heaven-defying.”

When Gu Bingrui said that, the surrounding students all looked at them.

The seedling of an Overlord-rank Dire Beast, the Ice Carp, would definitely be a powerhouse in the future. Most people in the academy knew about it, but it was their first time seeing it, so they were naturally extremely curious.

They felt that Lorne was a lucky person.

“Don’t worry, I’m not taking it for free. I also know the value of this Ice Carp seedling.

“The Ice Carp seedling is suitable for many ice-type Dire Beasts to advance. A seedling is about seven million star dollars.

“However, because the Ice Carp seedling is rare, this price is priceless. I’ll buy it for 20 million. What do you think?”

“20 million…!”

Lorne looked at the Ice Carp seedlings in his backpack. Even though he knew that it was expensive, he did not expect it to be so expensive. He would become a multimillionaire if he sold it.

“Since the school belle wants to buy it, just give me 10 million.”

“You can ask for as much as you want. There’s no need to be polite.

“Give me your account number.”

“Okay.”

Since Gu Bingrui was not short of money, Lorne did not say anything more. He informed his credit account number and the next second, he received 20 million star dollars.

“It has been received. You can check it with your phone.”

“Yes, I received it.”

“Happy transaction.”

“Student, sell me the other seedling.”

Chen Kun walked over and said with a slight threat.

Lorne refused decisively.

“Sorry, this one is not for sale!”

“I will offer 30 million star dollars for it.”

“No, I won’t sell it even if it’s 50 million star dollars.”

“Are you sure?”

Chen Kun looked at Lorne with a cold smile. As a core student of the Seventh Magic Card Academy, his father was also a rich man in this area. It was the first time he had met someone who did not give him what he wanted.

“Chen Kun, if he doesn’t sell it to you, are you going to threaten him?”

Chen Kun was the one who Yuan Ping wanted to see the most, so he naturally came over to mock him.

“Yuan Ping…!”

Then, Yang Kai also stood out.

“Chen Kun, Lorne is my friend.”

“Yang Kai, are you sure you want to support him?”

He knew Yang Kai and his family were quite rich, but Chen Kun did not care. Yang Kai was far behind him in terms of strength and family background, so he naturally would not give Su Mo face.

“Campus belle, I seem to have been implicated by you.”

Lorne looked at Gu Bingrui and said helplessly.

He thought that no matter what time it was, as long as he was related to the campus belle, a group of followers would always jump out to find trouble. He just wanted to go home, why was it so difficult.

“Sorry!”

“Chen Kun, what do you want? He’s my friend.”

Gu Bingrui knew that this was indeed the trouble that she had brought, so she naturally had to help solve it.

‘Sigh! If you say that, they will only get even angrier. Now that they have left, they will also find trouble with me. Why do I feel that the school Belle is quite stupid!’

Lorne thought to himself.

“We just want to buy his Ice Carp. After all, this is an extremely rare item.” In Chen Kun’s heart, the only reason he was close to Gu Bingrui was that she was the dean’s only granddaughter…the Dean was a Gold-rank Magic Card Master, one of the strongest in the entire Tianbei City.

Lorne’s refusal made Chen Kun feel very embarrassed. At this moment, he did not plan to give care for Gu Bingrui’s feelings.

“Haha, the one with the highest price will get it. Student Lorne, don’t bother about this idiot. How much do you want to sell this Ice Carp seedling for? Let me see if I can afford it.”

It was Qin Feng from the Qin family who had been silent all this time.

This sentence seemed to be a gentleman’s style, but in fact, it was pushing Lorne into the center of the storm.

He had come out to smooth things over. If he knew what was good for him, he would sell it to Qin Feng. If Lorne still did not sell it, then everyone would think that Lorne was too greedy.

If it was an ordinary person, they would have long been forced to compromise by the other party’s family.

However, Lorne was not an ordinary person.

Lorne smiled and said, “I’m sorry, I have another use for this Ice Carp seedling. I’m not planning to sell it.”

“Lorne, be careful. This Qin Feng isn’t a good person either. He’s a famous smiling tiger.”

“You’ve directly offended three core students. Even I can’t protect you. You can pray to the school belle to help you,” Yang Kai said to Lorne in a low voice.

“No need.”

“Uh…”

“It’s him…!”

“Lorne, I’ve finally managed to find you.”

“Huh?”

“So it’s Zhou Jie.”

Lorne turned his head and saw that it was actually Zhou Jie, an acquaintance, with Xu Li by his side.

Zhou Jie’s expression was arrogant at this moment. When he saw Chen Kun, his eyes lit up.

“Brother Kun, it’s him.”

Zhou Jie ran to Chen Kun and pointed at Lorne.

“I was wondering why it sounded so familiar. So he’s the Lorne you were talking about.”

“Lorne, you’re dead. This is my boss, Brother Kun. I said I have a way to deal with you.”

The six people that Lorne had killed in the Academy’s Mystic Realm were the people Zhou Jie had sent to kill him. He had thought that Lorne’s head had been chopped off a long time ago. He had not expected Lorne to still be alive and kicking in the school.

Although Zhou Jie had some doubts in his heart, he only felt that the people under his family had been paid to do nothing. However, he was not conflicted. Since Lorne still dared to appear in the school, then he had a way to deal with Lorne.

It just so happened that Chen Kun’s family was a little more powerful than his, so he also recognized Chen Kun as the boss. In order to take revenge on Lorne, he found his class’s core student, Chen Kun, and hoped that Chen Kun would help teach Lorne a lesson so that he could not participate in the academy entrance examination.

Now that he had met him, he naturally would not let Lorne off..
