Storm of Gods

Chapter 94 Reimbursement
Thump...bang~~~
With a muffled thud, Simmons, whose momentum had just reached its peak, made a high-explosive dash and instantly appeared in front of Li Xin, delivering a heavy chop to Li Xin. This sudden killing intent startled everyone.

Li Xin took a light step, and his fierce attack missed. Simmons, as if he had expected it, spun around and launched a vicious three-stage kick at Li Xin, aiming for vital points from top to bottom. Li Xin blocked and retreated. The two made contact with each other and produced a muffled sound. Simmons' spiritual energy was gathered but not released. Suddenly, Simmons let out a low roar, took a step forward, and the ground roared. He threw a punch, and spiritual energy was visibly enveloping his fist. Li Xin blocked it directly with his right palm.

The immense impact sent Li Xin flying backward, but in the blink of an eye, Simmons' eyes flashed red as he instantly appeared in front of Li Xin, grabbed Li Xin's clothes, and yanked hard, sending Li Xin flying and upside down in mid-air.

Their eyes met for a moment. Li Xin was about to make a move when he realized that Simmons hadn't made a move at all, but was staring straight at him.

Pa~~
Li Xin landed and slid a distance away. Simmons on the opposite side did not pursue him. His eyes had returned to normal, and he stood motionless in place.

For a moment, both teams were completely silent. What had just happened? Although no weapons were used, had Simmons just used Crimson Eyes? And his moves were a series of ruthless and offensive attacks, which Li Xin had actually blocked all of?
The team members from the Holy Ze Academy were also a bit confused. They had already started to look down on Tianjing. They thought that if they had to bite the bullet and lose to them, they would have to pay them a huge performance fee. Their captain would have ripped them off. But now it seemed that wasn't entirely the case.

The Tianjing Academy breathed a sigh of relief. They had seen Li Xin teetering on the edge of danger, but the captain of the Holy Ze team was surprisingly prudent. He had already succeeded but did not continue his attack. When Li Xin was thrown away, a top expert like Simmons would have been able to pursue him.

Only Luo Xue remained silent. She knew Simmons's purpose. His ruthlessness was just a test; he wanted to know whether Li Xin was a former member of the Secret Fortress.

But it didn't matter; she didn't intend to keep it a secret forever, so it didn't matter whether she found out sooner or later.

Li Xin buttoned up his torn clothes, smiled, and said, "Captain Simmons, you're quite skilled. The night scene at Black Rose is beautiful, so you should keep an eye on it. I'm a little unsatisfied and look forward to facing your Saint Ze later."

Simmons hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile. "Brother Li, you're too kind. It's our honor to be able to communicate with... the Tianjing Order Academy."

Bang bang bang~~~
Matthew and the others applauded. "Very good, Captain Simmons. Tianjing and Saint Ze have a lot in common. We can have more exchanges in the areas of psionics and Hextech in the future. Tianjing also values ​​art and philosophy, which are also Montaleta's strengths. We hope that they can bring us some cultural shock."

“Saint Ze came here with a learning attitude. The Tianjing Academy is truly unassuming, and we have been too naive,” Simmons said respectfully.

Matthew and Lockernan both had smiles on their faces. Clearly, Li Xin's performance as a substitute had earned Simmons' respect, and he hadn't embarrassed them at all.

Matthew glared at Luo Jin, who had a half-smile on his face, and said, "If you want to laugh, then laugh. What were you thinking, letting someone like this do odd jobs for you? Don't mislead the younger generation!"

Luo Jin wanted to argue, but seeing how well Li Xin was behaving, he decided to take the blame. He had already told Li Xin not to meddle in other people's business. What a stubborn guy.

The atmosphere immediately improved, and Lancer looked at Roland with interest. "Hey buddy, come on, let's have a little sparring." He wanted to see if this guy who had left Montcareta for Tianjing was really a scoundrel.

Roland nodded and went into battle, choosing a greatsword as well.

After greeting High Priest Matthew and Earl Locknant, Li Xin approached Luo Jin and asked, "Uncle Luo, my clothes are torn. It's a workplace injury. Can the Order of the Church cover it?"

Luo Jin grinned, "Can't you sew it yourself? Don't come to me with this kind of thing."

"Luo Jin, you're never like this when you come to me for reimbursement," the archbishop suddenly said. Luo Jin was speechless. What was he doing?

"Report!" Luo Jin spat out the word through gritted teeth.

"Haha, that's wonderful! Thank you, High Commissioner! Thank you, Archbishop! You are wise and powerful! With your leadership, it's no wonder the Night Patrol is thriving!" Li Xin's flattery was spot on. "Count, thank you for having someone help us solve the case as well."

Locke Nan laughed. This kid was nothing like what Luo Xue had described, and completely different from Luo Jin. He had initially thought the boy was a rigid person.
"You're thanking the wrong person. I'm also a member of the Order of the Order, so this matter is under my jurisdiction."

"That's because you have a broad perspective," Li Xin said with a smile, determined not to let his superior's words fall flat.

"You're so good at talking. Since it's the Earl's business, you should just focus on your training!" Luo Jin said.

All three of them had very high spiritual energy cultivation. It was clear that although Li Xin was passive, he maintained complete control when he was thrown away. Simmons stopped with great finesse, but Li Xin did not lose his defensive stance. With such a performance, Li Xin truly deserves to be a member of the Black Rose.

Zhao Qing's expression was slightly displeased. Li Xin's actions had made his performance seem like a show. However, he dared not show any of this in front of the three big shots. His lackey Hao Ye was also very obedient, and he only showed his teeth when he saw his opponent.

Surprisingly, the battle between Lancer and Roland was a close contest, with both sides trading blows. Although Lancer had a slight advantage, he couldn't really do anything to Roland. Even though neither of them had activated their Eyes of Insight, Roland's solid foundation was already evident.

Matthew and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. What they feared most was that the Tianjing Academy would be utterly defeated, which would mean all their hard work and achievements would be for naught.

Matthew and Locknan exchanged a glance, understood the situation, and didn't linger, making the trainees feel more at ease.

"Li Xin, don't worry about Hextech's core matters for now. Just stay at the Order Institute and behave yourself," Luo Jin said.

"Uncle Luo, that thing is very dangerous. We need to find it as soon as possible. There's no use for me staying here."

"Are you the only capable person left in the entire Tianjing? Can't we solve cases without you?!" Luo Jin glared at him.

Because this brat got a good scolding from the archbishop today, but the archbishop is right. Letting him solve cases is really putting the cart before the horse. This kid has too much potential. If we nurture him properly and he makes a splash in the Four Nations Tournament, his future is limitless.

Li Xin touched his nose, watched Luo Jin leave with a show of bravado, and could only stay behind.

Simmons, standing not far away in the group, would occasionally glance at Li Xin, but when Li Xin looked over, he would quickly look away. His hands were hidden in his pockets, clenched tightly, his fingers digging into his flesh and drawing blood without him noticing.

Grass……

Really are!
