Three hundred and twentieth chapters contempt and annoyance
There are still three days until the Academy League is held.
During this period, what everyone has to do is to familiarize themselves with the environment in advance, adjust their mentality, and recharge their batteries for the competition.
It was getting late, so Gao Wenbai didn't say anything more. After arriving at the hotel, he asked the students to get off the car and go directly to the restaurant. After eating, they went to have a good rest.
The Academy League is a large-scale event that all beast control academies across the federation participate in.
Even if there are only about a dozen contestants from each college, plus the teachers accompanying them, the total number of people is already an extremely large number.
There are more than a dozen hotels chartered by the league committee alone as host accommodation.
Lin Ze and others came to one of them, and it was also the one with the highest level of reception.
It is populated by beast control academies that ranked among the top ten in last year's league competition.
It was late at night, but when everyone arrived at the hotel restaurant, it was still full of people.
Without exception, they are all young men and women in their twenties, obviously students from major beast control academies.
Seeing Lin Ze and his party walking into the restaurant, many students immediately looked around and whispered to each other in low voices.
"Another batch has arrived."
"Which college are you from?"
"It's from Ningjiang College. I just saw their bus outside. It has the name of Ningjiang College written on it."
"Ningjiang College? Oh, I remember it. The one that ranked ninth last year?"
"No, you still have to think about it for so long. After all, it is also one of the top ten beast control academies in the federation."
"So what? It's not even the top eight. Apart from Baihe College, Ningjiang College is the weakest in this hotel."
"Yes, our opponents are other colleges that have entered the top eight. Baihe College and Ningjiang College are not worthy of attention."
"Speaking of this, I heard people in the hotel discussing just now. It is said that Canghai College in Longjing City has a very strong team this year. Both the freshman chief and the college chief are much better than in previous years."
"No, Canghai Academy was the champion last year, and is it even stronger this year? Are you going to let people live?"
There were whispers all around.
Listening to those disparaging words about Ningjiang College, Deng Rou, Liang Jun and others looked a little unhappy, secretly annoyed, but unable to say anything to refute.
There is no way, the people in the hotel at this time are all the beast mastering academies that were among the top ten in the league last year.
Except for Baihe College, which is at the bottom, Ningjiang College ranks the lowest.
I really don't have the confidence to refute.
Gao Wenbai saw the change in the student's demeanor and comforted him:
"Don't worry about what they say."
"The college league is based on strength. If you really feel unwilling to do so, then get good results in the three days of competition. That is the most powerful refutation of these people!"
After hearing this, the students' expressions softened a little.
"Yes, the teacher is right!"
"So what about last year's quarterfinals? It's not certain who will be stronger and who will be weaker this year!"
"That is, if nothing else is said, rookie Sai Linze can beat them all by himself!"
"That's right, we still have Lin Ze!"
When Lin Ze was mentioned, everyone suddenly became energetic.
The ranking of the Academy League is determined by the results of the rookie game and the main game.
And with Lin Ze’s strength, first place in the rookie competition is almost a certainty.
As long as the performance of others is not too bad, Ningjiang Academy will definitely achieve excellent results in the rookie competition.
With this good start, even if the results in the main competition are similar to last year, Ningjiang College can easily enter the top eight.
Thinking of this, everyone's depression was suddenly wiped away, their morale was restored, and they held their heads high and their chests held high.
After a moment of discussion, the people around them turned their attention away from the people in Ningjiang College.
Lin Ze and his party ignored it and went straight to order food.
The food is unexpectedly luxurious, and it is provided free of charge.
Thinking about it, beast masters can almost be said to be one of the richest groups in the world.
Although the Academy League is only a competition between students, it is also a competition for beast masters.
The league committee, as the organizer, is naturally an organization that is not short of money. All contestants and team members have full meals, accommodation, and transportation, so they are not short of money.
The dishes were served quickly, and everyone who was already hungry immediately started to feast.
Halfway through the meal, Guan Ning suddenly tugged on Lin Ze's clothes and whispered: "Brother, there is someone over there who has been watching us."
Lin Ze followed Guan Ning's line of sight and looked over. There were five or six people sitting one table apart in front of them to the right.
One of them, a young man in his twenties who looked quite extravagantly dressed, was communicating in a low voice with his companions at the same table, while looking at where they were from time to time and pointing.
Lin Ze glanced around and saw that the faces were all unfamiliar, and none of them were familiar to him.
Although Guan Ning's voice was not loud, everyone at the table could hear him clearly.
Looking back, Deng Rou looked confused: "Those people don't seem to be students."
"Looking at their age, they really don't look alike."
"If they are not students, how did they get in? This hotel has been booked by the league committee."
"Most of them sneaked in through connections. Judging from their appearance, they are probably descendants of aristocratic families."
"Then what are they doing here all the time? Do you know them?"
Everyone shook their heads. Almost all of them were coming to Longjing City for the first time. How could there be anyone familiar with them.
Tan Yong said with a smile: "I think they are mostly attracted by girls. Our table has the most beauties in the entire restaurant."
This is true.
Not to mention Guan Ning and Guo Xinyi, they are extremely rare beautiful girls.
Although Deng Rou and the other girls are not as good as each other, their appearance and appearance are all above the standard. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as beauties.
There were five or six beauties sitting at one table, including two outstanding ones, who couldn't help but attract attention.
In fact, people have been looking over here since just now.
But there are not many who are as blatant as that young man.
After hearing this, the girls frowned.
Seeing this, several boys immediately geared up and wanted to warn each other.
In the end, Gao Wenbai spoke up to stop them.
"Don't be ridiculous. As long as the other party doesn't mess with us, don't do anything easily. Now during the league, if you fight in private, you will be severely punished by the committee, and you may even be disqualified from the competition."
A few boys who were ready to make a move suddenly withered.
After that, everyone ignored the young man and went back to their rooms to rest after eating.
After breakfast the next day, Lin Ze was dragged by Guan Ning and Guo Xinyi to go shopping in the city.
However, as soon as he left the hotel entrance, he was stopped by someone.
The other party was the young man last night.
Lin Ze originally thought that the other party was coming for Guan Ning and Guo Xinyi. Unexpectedly, the young man did not even look at the two women and said directly to him with a smile on his face:
"Is this Lin Ze? This is the first time we meet. My name is Di Ping."
