When Lin Ze came down from the ring, everyone looked at him differently, with admiration, envy, jealousy, and wariness. Especially the players participating in the first ring competition had already regarded Lin Ze as a key target.
Attention.
Of course, Lin Ze didn't care about all this.
Returning to the resting place of the Eighteenth Academy, Luo Li nodded to him, obviously satisfied with the battle, and other students also congratulated Lin Ze, "Congratulations to Brother Lin for successfully entering the preliminaries."
Lin Ze responded one by one with a smile.
Jiang Na said: "Compared to you two months ago, you are completely different. At that time, I still had some confidence in beating you, but after watching your game today, I may not be able to beat you."
Fortunately, I'm not in the same arena as you..." At this point, she looked at Huang Meng again, a little gloating, "What's up, little Mengzi, are you feeling a lot of pressure now?"
"Don't call me Xiaomengzi." Huang Meng rolled his eyes at him. His expression didn't seem to care, but there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
Lin Ze patted his shoulder and didn't say much.
At this moment, Lin Ze suddenly felt a few sharp gazes directed at him. He looked over instinctively and found that in a resting place not far away, several people seemed to be talking about him, and would look at him from time to time.
, pointing, and among them there was a young man in black looking at him with cold eyes, full of evil.
When Lin Ze spotted him, he smiled coldly and stretched out his hand to make a provocative gesture.
Lin Ze suddenly frowned and asked the person next to him: "Who is that person?"
Everyone followed his gaze and their expressions darkened. Jiang Na even said in disgust: "Wang Han from the 21st House is a third-year student. He is ranked 28th in the outer house. He is very strong, but his character is...
He is extremely bad and must be punished. He has an eldest brother in the inner courtyard who is lawless in the outer courtyard and often bullies the freshmen. Half a year ago, his courtyard was ranked among the top twenty, but he was squeezed out after losing to Lin Xue.
He has been against us since then. Once, when our students from the Eighteenth House were doing a task outside, we accidentally bumped into them and almost didn't come back."
"Does the academy not care about this kind of thing?" Lin Ze asked.
"I can't control it. He does it very secretly. We can't provide any evidence at all, and he has a backer behind him. Not to mention ordinary students like us, even ordinary tutors don't dare to do anything to him." Jiang Na shook her head and smiled bitterly,
Then he said sternly, "In addition, he is also the seeded player in the first arena. You were so popular in the arena just now, and you are from the Eighteenth Academy. He will definitely seek revenge on you, so you have to be careful."
"I understand." Lin Ze nodded, then turned around, not even looking at Wang Han's provocation.
Huang Meng, on the other hand, was furious and raised several middle fingers at Wang Han, making him furious.
Lin Ze had already passed the knockout rounds, so by the time of the noon qualifiers, he would have no part in the rest of the competition. So in order not to waste time, Lin Ze took a leave of absence and went back to his dormitory to practice.
At this time, the students in the outer courtyard were either participating in the competition or watching the competition. It was rare to encounter pedestrians on the road. However, not long after Lin Ze left, he was already blocked by someone.
What appeared in front of him was a young man in black with a cold face. It was none other than Wang Han.
"Lin Ze, I heard that you are Lin Xue's younger brother, is it true?" Wang Han said coldly.
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Lin Ze didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked directly around.
"Stop!" Wang Han shouted, blocking in front of Lin Ze again, then tore open his collar, revealing a huge scar on his chest, and sneered, "This wound was given to me by Lin Xue half a year ago, what do you think?
Does it have anything to do with me?"
"Oh, then you have to cherish it." Lin Ze nodded.
Wang Han's face was suddenly full of anger, but he calmed down immediately. He just looked at Lin Ze with a look that vaguely revealed hatred and murderous intent, "Huh, Lin Xue made me humiliate half a year ago. I originally planned to pay him back this time."
It’s for her, but since you are Lin Xue’s younger brother, it’s even better. Before dealing with her, I’ll collect some interest from you first.”
Lin Ze smiled half-heartedly, "Why, you want to fight me here?"
During the competition in the outer college, if participating students secretly resort to violence, they will be disqualified once discovered.
"Humph, I'm not that stupid. I just came to inform you." Even Wang Han would not do such a stupid thing. He said coldly, "Don't think that just because you won the knockout round easily, you can be arrogant.
There's nothing to be proud of when you beat those losers. When the qualifiers come, I'll let you know what a real master is."
After speaking, Wang Han stretched out his hand and made a motion of wiping his neck.
"Get out of the way, good dogs don't block the way." Lin Ze didn't want to waste time on this kind of thing, so he reached out and pushed him over and walked over. Under the great force, Wang Han took a few steps back.
Suddenly, Wang Han's face turned livid, and his eyes were full of anger. He wanted to cut Lin Ze into pieces immediately, but when he thought of the rules of the competition, he finally endured it.
"Lin Ze, just wait, the qualifiers will be the day you die!" Wang Han said bitterly to Lin Ze's back, turned around and left.
Lin Ze was too lazy to agree and didn't even look back, but he also had some murderous intent in his heart.
A villain like Wang Han, who is determined to retaliate, is similar to a stick stirrer. Since he has made a grudge against himself, he will not let go until he is completely beaten to pieces.
Lin Ze would not condone this, but would only deal the most fatal blow.
As for the backer behind Wang Han... He doesn't even need to care about this kind of thing. In the Sword Martial Arts Academy, the thing he is least afraid of is the backer. As the heir of Wu Zhan, with the Black Jade Order in hand, he doesn't want any privileges.
, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have privileges!
…
Lin Ze practiced in the dormitory for several hours. At noon, he had something to eat, then closed the door and walked towards the square.
There are only five knockout rounds in each arena, and one morning is more than enough time. When Lin Ze came to the square, the knockout rounds had already ended, and the list of eight people for the qualifiers had been announced. It was only after noon that the time came.
Let's compete.
"Yo." At this time, the resting place of the Eighteenth House was no longer as crowded as it was in the morning. Only Huang Meng and a few other students were still there. As for Lin Xuejiangna and others, they had already gone to their respective competition areas.
, several people greeted Lin Ze immediately when they saw him.
"How is it? Are there any powerful people in this qualifier?" Lin Ze asked after sitting down.
"There are two." Huang Meng nodded and said in a condensed voice, "One of them is Wang Han. Although this guy has a bad character, his strength is quite good, only slightly worse than Lin Xue. The other one is better than Wang Han.
fear……"
"Oh, who is it?" Lin Ze couldn't help but become a little more interested.
Huang Meng immediately looked at him and said, "It's you."
"..." Lin Ze was speechless.
clang!
A moment later, with a sound, the preliminaries began. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
