Inside the tent.

Wu Feng looked at Li Xuan with admiration, and Hou Yong still looked at Li Xuan with a smile.

"Principal, you make me feel uneasy when you look at me like this." Li Xuan said.

Hou Yong continued to smile and said, "I originally thought you and Yun Xi were marrying above your station, but now it seems that you two are a perfect match."

Li Xuan had no time for jokes. He said with some concern, "Principal, I'm afraid the Xue family won't just let it go."

Hou Yong put away his smile and nodded: "They won't give up, but it's nothing to worry about."

"What's the meaning?"

"Tomorrow is the Ten Schools League. As long as you can be valued by the City Lord in the league, Xue Kui will naturally not bother you again given his personality."

Hou Yong put his hands behind his back and analyzed, "The only thing we need to worry about now is the period before participating in the Ten Schools League."

Li Xuan nodded, but he suddenly thought of his aunt and cousin who were still in the city.

"Principal, we have to get back to the city!"

Although there are rules and laws in the city, and the use of force against ordinary people is not allowed, we must also be on guard against the Xue family doing something desperate.

However, when the two returned to the city without stopping, they found that their aunt and cousin had disappeared as if they had evaporated into thin air.

"how so?"

Li Xuan suddenly panicked.

Hou Yong frowned and said soothingly, "Don't worry, I know Xue Kui very well. He is very calculating and would never do anything that would lead to a loss of the greater good."

"He would never dare to do anything that would harm ordinary people."

There are several high-voltage lines in China that must not be crossed, one of which is: the grudges between players must not involve ordinary people.

We must never rely on our powerful strength to harm ordinary people.

There was once a level 80 legendary professional who cut off an ordinary person's arm for a trivial matter. Afterwards, he was tried by the military.

He also had one of his arms cut off, apologized to the person involved, and was then permanently exiled to the occupied area and forbidden to enter any city.

These measures have greatly ensured the safety of ordinary people in the city, and also prevented powerful players from acting recklessly and lawless.

"But my aunt and the others were still taken away by the Xue family."

Li Xuan clenched his fists, his heart filled with anger. Now he just wanted to rush to the Xue family and rescue them.

"Don't be impulsive. This is exactly what the Xue family wants. If we attack the Xue family now, it will be exactly what they want. Otherwise, the Xue family will definitely not dare to do anything to your aunt and the others."

Hou Yong held Li Xuan's shoulder and said calmly, "After all, harming ordinary people is much more serious than killing us on the spot in the camp."

"Xue Kui didn't dare to attack us at that time because he knew the consequences."

His words also made Li Xuan gradually calm down. If Xue Kui was really that impulsive, he would have taken action in the camp long ago.

Why should we keep putting pressure on the principal but not dare to take action? They are doing this now just to force me to submit.

"What should we do now?" Li Xuan asked.

"Wait one night. Tomorrow at the Ten Schools League, your strength will be enough to amaze everyone. Then, personally inform the City Lord of all this, and all the Xue family's schemes will be shattered!"

Hou Yong said with great confidence.

Li Xuan nodded slightly. He knew very well that the weight of an ordinary high school student and a genius of extraordinary talent was completely different.

Moreover, my aunt and the others disappeared without leaving any evidence, so it is difficult to prove that it was the Xue family who did it.

Only by proving your own value can you attract attention and recognition. This is the reality of this world.

Hou Yong breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Li Xuan, being young and impulsive, would go and fight the Xue family. That would not only be useless, but he might also lose his life.

…

Time flies by, and the first rays of sunshine fall in the early morning.

"Ten Schools League! Here I come!"

Li Xuan walked out of the principal's office. Today he was going to make his name known throughout the entire Beining City, and he was also going to make the Xue family bow down before him.

The Ten Schools League is a league held by ten schools in Beining City during the college entrance examination. Each school sends five people to compete in turns.

The losing side will be eliminated, and the winning side will remain in the arena. The school whose five members are all defeated will be considered the loser.

The champion team and students with outstanding performance will receive different levels of rewards from the city lord.

Every Ten Schools League is an absolute major event in Beining City. Not only will the city lord be present in person, but everyone in the city will pay attention.

Some outstanding students can even join certain guilds or forces in the city in advance and receive strong training.

After walking out of the principal's office, Hou Yong had already organized the other four people who would be participating in this battle.

Among them is Chen Qi, and the other three are also the three with the strongest comprehensive strength in No. 3 Middle School.

However, Li Xuan didn't know much about it. With him around, there was no need for these four people to fight.

Ever since he lost his equipment to Li Xuan in the last dungeon, when Chen Qi sees Li Xuan now, there seem to be three words written on his face: Became honest.

"You will represent our No. 3 Middle School. Li Xuan will be your captain. You will obey his orders on all matters, including the order of play."

Hou Yong appointed Li Xuan as the team leader, and the other four had no objection. The fact that he had to pass the hell difficulty level alone was enough to convince them.

Li Xuan and the other four walked out of the teaching building and headed towards the largest gymnasium in Beining City, which was also the venue for the Ten Schools League, together with the teachers and students outside.

On this day, the entire Beining City was bustling with activity, and the league attracted a lot of attention.

After all, those who can stand out in the Ten Schools League today will most likely become big figures in Beining City in the future.

Inside the central venue.

The venue was packed with students from various schools of this year, as well as people from major guilds, chambers of commerce and family forces who came to observe whether there were any candidates worth investing in.

Below the arena, ten principals sat in the first row, and the empty seat in the middle was obviously reserved for the city lord.

"Old Hou, are you prepared for the school's ranking to drop further?" A wealthy-looking principal asked with a smile.

The other female principal also smiled and said, "Old Hou is about to be dismissed. Don't tease him at this time."

These two are the principals of No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 Middle School, and have long occupied the first and second positions.

They and No. 3 Middle School are three public schools directly under the City Lord's Mansion, but the ranking of No. 3 Middle School among the ten schools has been declining.

As the principal, Hou Yong would always be teased by them.

Hou Yong did not argue as usual, but smiled and stopped talking.

Laugh, you guys are so funny now, it will be my turn later... Hou Yong thought happily.

As the venue's prompt sounded, the city lord finally entered.

This is a middle-aged man who looks very elegant. He walks steadily, neither hurried nor slow, and his expression is calm and confident, as if everything around him is in his rhythm.

Ten principals stood up at the same time to greet him, and he just raised his hand slightly to signal them to sit down, then walked to the center of the venue and began to speak.
