Eighteen Ghost Emperors of my ancestors, how dare you make me live in terror?

"♪、♫ The little bird says good morning, why are you carrying a bomb? ♪、♫ I'm going to bomb the school, so I'll never be late..."

Lu Ye hummed a tune, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, as he strolled along, enjoying the scenery.

On the last day, not far from the exit of the barrier, he planned to walk out.

"If the academy can be built in this remote mountain forest, the environment must at least be good."

Looking at the beautiful scenery around me, I felt a surge of anticipation for the college I was about to arrive at.

We climbed over one mountain, and then over another.

"Hello, upperclassmen who aren't very good at this."

As Lu passed by the small hills filled with people, he waved to the "heads" peeking out from them.

Some of them had been beaten up, and some had been beaten up again.

"Arrogant..."

"I'm so angry! I got mocked by some freshman. Can someone go down there and punch him?"

"Never mind, let's be good classmates from now on."

"You're surprisingly easy to talk to!"

"Otherwise what? My face is still swollen."

More than a hundred eyes were silently watching Lu Ye below.

Those older students who had been beaten stood on top, while many who hadn't stood below, blocking the middle of the road, but none of them made a move, clearly hesitant.

This S-class freshman is said to be very strong, but how can the senior students put their face when they just watch 1000 million walk right in front of them?

As Lu Ye drew closer, the atmosphere grew tense.

At the same time, a commotion broke out.

"It's Wang Chao and his group."

"The Cangming team has also come out."

Looking over, a group of seven people, supporting each other, also walked over.

Their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Hey, Gui, why is your face so swollen? Who hit you?" a familiar older student shouted.

Ah Gui turned his head away somewhat awkwardly, his voice indifferent: "He bumped into a tree."

Then someone asked, "Li Yi! What happened to those dark circles under your eyes?"

Li turned his head away expressionlessly, "I fell into a ditch."

Someone else exclaimed in surprise and doubt, "Da Zhuang, Da Zhuang, that bump on your head is quite big! Are you practicing some new trick?"

Da Zhuang said in a stern voice, "It's from practicing Iron Head Kung Fu."

His head was lowered deeply.

I feel so ashamed.

My face has never felt so hot before.

"Hang in there, at least try to leave with some dignity. The captain must be feeling even worse than us right now," came A-Gui's voice from beside us.

The members of the Cangming team all looked at Wang Chao, who was walking alone at the front and receiving the most attention, and their eyes were filled with emotion.

He truly deserves to be their most competitive captain.

Even with a bruised and swollen face, he still tried his best to keep his back straight!

The other senior students around were all looking at him, and what he had just said was a deliberate probing. They didn't know what had happened inside, but they knew one thing.

The Cangming team, ranked among the top ten in the entire Mountain Ghost Academy, has never been so embarrassed.

Wang Chao saw Lu Ye standing in front of him, nodded, and didn't say anything.

Lu responded casually.

This small interactive action immediately caused the expressions of the clever and shrewd senior students around them to change in all directions.

"Hey, are you guys planning to make way yourselves, or are you planning to make me do it myself?"

Seeing a group of senior students blocking the way, Lu Ye showed off his fist, which was as big as a sandbag.

"I'm warning you, don't get too cocky, buddy!"

Is being arrogant illegal?

Lu Ye looked bewildered, then grinned.

"If I've broken the law, please use force to judge me, instead of just talking nonsense here."

Lu Ye's negative passive attributes have been triggered again.

He gets more shy when there are fewer people around, and more energetic when there are more people around.

Besides, he fought his way here through his own abilities, so why can't he be arrogant?

You have to be arrogant!

Lu Ye arrogantly shook his leg.

Come on.

"I want to be tortured."

A group of old men were so angry they gritted their teeth.

But there's not much we can do.

Going up there to fight now seems like a bad idea.

It wouldn't be good if I didn't get the 1000 million and then got beaten up.

.........

"Cough cough."

At the critical moment, a cough echoed throughout the entire barrier.

"Effective immediately, the bounty for S-class freshmen will be increased to 100 million, and their coordinates will be announced."

Finally, he added a meaningful smile.

"hehe."

Along with the sound, a conspicuous beam of light shot straight up into the sky above Lu Ye's head.

Lu jumped one step to the left, and the light followed him to the left; he jumped one step to the right, and the light followed him to the right.

The main theme is unwavering loyalty.

........

"How many?"

"Am I hallucinating?"

Listening to the echoing sound from above, an older student asked in bewilderment.

Another senior student next to him frowned and shook his head.

"No, you heard me right, I said...one hundred million."

"Why give me 100 million?"

"Defeat that S-class and you'll get a hundred million."

"oh."

The two nodded in unison, their gazes slowly turning to Lu Ye, who was standing there.

Locked up.

Then came the second, the third, the fourth...

"To be honest, if it were 1000 million, I might hesitate a bit. After all, getting beaten up hurts a lot, and I'm worried that if I go for it, none of you will."

"But if you give me 100 million..."

"I feel like I could chase him to the ends of the earth."

"Gentlemen, it is time to draw your swords."

More than a hundred pairs of bloodshot eyes were fixed on Lu Ye, as if dark clouds were pressing down on him.

"What did you just say? You wanted to be tortured?"

"No, you misheard me. I just said I wanted affection."

The arrogance on Lu Ye's face had vanished, and she became as obedient as a sweet girl before turning and running away.

"kill!"

"Capture one hundred million alive!"

"Let's join forces to eliminate that old devil Lu!"

The atmosphere was completely ignited at that moment.

Lu Ye, now back in the mountains, slid straight towards the cliff, glancing at the straight rays of sunlight above his head and the large, swarming group chasing after him, chanting slogans.

He held up his middle finger to the sky with his hand behind his back.

"Damn it... are you targeting me?"

.........

"Wow, a bounty of 100 million! That's breaking records!"

"It even comes with built-in location tracking."

"Captain! Should we go?"

The members of the Cangming team were also aroused by this spectacular scene and began to feel eager to try, as if they could do it again.

Wang Chao's eyes flickered twice before finally returning to calm as he walked out of the barrier.

"Go ahead if you want, we won't stop you, but remember to take off your badges and cover your faces. If you get knocked down again, don't say you're from the team."

"........."

You want to save face, huh?

Then forget it.

.........

"Heh, let's see if you're still so smug now."

Outside the Mountain Ghost Academy, Li Tianyi sensed the extremely restless atmosphere inside and finally nodded in satisfaction.

It was the last day, and the freshmen gradually came out of the barrier, sitting cross-legged on the grass to rest. They looked quite tired.

However, almost all of these dozens of freshmen had their identity tokens stolen, the bounty was divided up by the senior students, and they even suffered quite a few blows.

A cool and aloof figure slowly walked out under the gaze of many new students and came to Wu Qing.

"I'm sorry, I failed."

Wu Qing glanced at the crimson mark between Ling Xin'er's eyebrows and already knew what had happened to her, so she didn't say anything more.

He casually tossed over a jade pendant, which he had just gotten from Li Tianyi.

"This is the entrance token for the A-level eerie dungeon of the Mountain Ghost Academy. Go in yourself, and what you get depends on how determined you are."

"Given her current physical condition, you still want her to enter that kind of dungeon?" Li Tianyi sighed, looking at Ling Xin'er. "No rush, at least let her recover from her injuries first."

Ling Xin'er turned and bowed, "Greetings, Dean."

"Well, no need for formalities among family." Li Tianyi nodded with a smile, then said, "A freshman like you is destined to be pulled into a team as soon as you enter the academy. Which one do you want to join?"

Ling Xin'er subconsciously shifted her gaze to the barrier behind her.

"You'd better not get too close to him right now, wait a bit longer," Wu Qing said softly.

"Mm." Ling Xin'er nodded.

Li Tianyi's gaze fell on the figures who were helping each other out of the barrier. He seemed to be thinking, "I think the Cangming team is pretty good. Those kids are quite ambitious. You should go there. I'll make the arrangements later."

"Oh." Ling Xin'er nodded expressionlessly.

........

As darkness gradually fell.

The final time is getting closer and closer.

Apart from Lu Ye, all the new students had gathered on this grassland, looking solemnly at the gloomy forest within the barrier.

Because it's been going on since noon until now.

The jungle near the outer edge of the barrier seemed to be boiling over completely.

Everywhere there were booming sounds, explosions, flashes of light, and shouts...

They watched with their own eyes as the beam of light shot straight into the sky, leaping from east to west and from south to north right before their very eyes, while the entire group of 200 senior students of the academy roared and chased after it from east to west and from south to north.

"This commotion is too loud..."

"Is it still possible to get out?"

"It seems like...it's coming!"

The sounds coming from the dense forest were getting closer.

Under the gaze of all the new students—

boom!

A huge flame first pierced through the last layer of dense vegetation, burning a large hole through it.

The sounds of even fiercer fighting could be heard from inside.

"Stop him right now!"

"We're about to escape the barrier!!"

"send!!!"

Accompanied by dozens of unwilling roars, a figure flew backward high out of the dense forest, landing on the ground after tracing a long arc.

Somewhat disheveled, somewhat covered in dust.

But that didn't stop the guy from turning around immediately.

Hands on hips, leg shaking

He laughed arrogantly, looking up at the sky into the gloomy, dense forest.

"Chase them! Keep chasing them!"

"That bastard chased me for over a thousand miles."

"Didn't catch up, huh? Hahaha! Aren't you angry?"

"Fuck your grandpas!"

The entire area in front of the gate echoed with Lu Ye's curses.

To avoid misunderstandings, patch the issue in advance:

Ling Xin'er's move to another team is for other reasons. The protagonist will bring her back in a very satisfying way. Don't worry, just follow the rhythm and you'll enjoy it.
