"Have you heard?"
"What did you hear?"
"It was Meng Xiyue, a freshman sent by North Shore College in North Shore City to visit our Imperial Capital Academy. She had only awakened for more than two months, but as soon as she arrived at our Imperial Capital Academy, she defeated the tenth to fifth of the ten strongest awakeners in the second grade of our Imperial Capital Academy!"
"This North Shore College Meng Xiyue is so powerful? What kind of supernatural power does she have?"
"A beastmaster's talent, a talent that specializes in controlling awakened beasts to fight, and it's SSS level. I feel like this Meng Xiyue was sent by North Shore College to destroy the reputation of my Imperial Capital Academy as the No. 1 Awakener Academy in Kyushu!"
This afternoon, Lin Tianming and Chu Yunfei came out of the cafeteria after having lunch together, and happened to run into a few passers-by talking about Meng Xiyue from North Shore College.
He couldn't help but think of yesterday when he was leveling up in the Lost Forest and met a young male beastmaster.
Could that male beastmaster also be a student from North Shore College in North Shore City?
Chu Yunfei, who was beside Lin Tianming, also heard the discussions of the passers-by. He seemed to remember something and immediately put his arm around Lin Tianming's shoulder.
"Tianming, I just happened to tell you about the SSS Beast Tamer Meng Xiyue. Yesterday, she first challenged the tenth-ranked sophomore among the top ten strongest awakeners of the sophomores, that is, Lei Dong, whom you defeated before. Later, she challenged the ninth to fifth place in public one after another. If it weren't for the lack of time, I feel that she would have beaten all the ten strongest sophomores yesterday! You don't know, I was also there to watch a few games. This Meng Xiyue is really strong. She almost won by a one-sided beating. It looks even more powerful than when you defeated Lei Dong before!
Now the internet is going crazy about the first-year student Meng Xiyue who beat up the second-year student of Imperial Capital Great Emperor Academy. She is stronger than you and is the strongest among the freshmen who have just awakened in Jiuzhou. Because of her, many people are going crazy about the Internet about the reputation of Imperial Capital Great Emperor Academy as the first awakener academy in Jiuzhou not being worthy of its reputation! "
Lin Tianming looked at Chu Yunfei's excited expression as he described how powerful Meng Xiyue was. He asked thoughtfully, "What level is she now? Level 15?"
"Level 17. You only advanced to level 16 after defeating Lei Dong last time. She is one level higher than you. This year's top first-year students in Kyushu are all more monstrous than the last!"
When Lin Tianming heard Chu Yunfei say that Meng Xiyue was level 17, he was a little surprised.
He had received all kinds of lightning baptisms from teacher Jiang Han's devilish special training, and his accumulation had almost broken through the bottleneck. Just yesterday, he completed the promotion to level 17 in actual combat in the Lost Forest.
This Meng Xiyue, at level 17, beat up Lei Dong and the others yesterday, which means she was promoted even faster than him.
Noticing Lin Tianming's surprised expression, Chu Yunfei teased him: "Our great genius Lin Tianming, are you feeling the pressure? That out-of-school student named Meng Xiyue is advancing faster than you!"
“There’s no pressure.”
Lin Tianming really didn't feel any pressure, he was just surprised that the other party was promoted to level 17 faster than him.
It seems that the intensity of Meng Xiyue's level-up training is probably no less than the special training specially customized for him by Teacher Jiang Han.
"There's another competition to watch at the Wind Chime Arena! It's said that it's the SSS-level beastmaster Meng Xiyue from North Shore College yesterday. She's going to challenge Li Hao, who ranks fourth, and Zhang Zixi, who ranks third, among the top ten strongest sophomores!"
"What? It's that Meng Xiyue again! Wait for me, I want to go and see the scene too. I missed her challenge yesterday, so I have to witness it today to see if she can continue her winning streak from yesterday!"
Continuing on the way back to the boys' dormitory, passers-by nearby started talking about the challenge Meng Xiyue had today.
Chu Yunfei heard the discussions of passers-by and suggested to Lin Tianming: "Tianming, let's go to the scene and see if Meng Xiyue can defeat Li Hao, who is ranked fourth, and Zhang Zixi, who is ranked third!"
Lin Tianming was also very interested in this legendary Meng Xiyue, and he nodded.
After he finished speaking, Lin Tianming and Chu Yunfei walked towards the Wind Chime Arena.
At this time, a competition battle between students had just ended in the Wind Chime Arena.
Li Hao, who ranked fourth among the sophomores, and Zhang Zixi, who ranked third, both ran out of strength and fell in the arena.
"Thank you, two seniors."
After Meng Xiyue easily defeated Zhang Zixi and Li Hao on her own, she also politely smiled at the two who had teamed up but still lost.
Li Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Ms. Meng is really strong. It's me, Li Hao, who is not as skilled as her."
Zhang Zixi didn't really care about winning or losing. He yawned and said, "Now that we're done, I should go back and sleep!"
When the two were about to leave, Meng Xiyue politely asked, "I wonder if you two seniors know where Senior Sister Mo Jinghong and Senior Brother Yongyu are? Or do you have any way to invite them here now?"
Unexpectedly, Meng Xiyue wanted to challenge again right after the fight. Li Hao and Zhang Zixi looked at each other.
After a moment, Li Hao kindly reminded Meng Xiyue.
"We can't invite those two people. Although you beat us, I still want to kindly remind you that we are not SSS-level talents. Their real combat power is far higher than ours. They have fulfilled their SSS-level supernatural talents, unlike Lei Dong who wasted his SSS-level talents. If you want to challenge them, you still have to be cautious."
"Thank you for your reminder, Senior. Since it is difficult for you to ask them to move, I will find a way myself!"
After Meng Xiyue finished speaking, she was the first to leave the Wind Chime Arena.
After the battle, Li Hao and Zhang Zixi left together.
But their departure did not stop the students nearby who were discussing the recent battle.
"Li Hao and Zhang Zixi are ranked fourth and third among the top ten strongest sophomores. Their awakened levels are both 28th. Even though they joined forces, they were still defeated miserably by Meng Xiyue from North Shore College. Is she really only 17th level?"
"Before, she specifically asked Li Hao and Zhang Zixi to fight together. I thought she was just being arrogant. Now it seems that she really has the ability to fight two people alone. Moreover, she didn't even take a break after the fight. She even wanted to find Mo Jinghong and Yongyu to continue the challenge!"
“I saw first-year student Lin Tianming beating up Lei Dong, who was ranked tenth among the second-year students, and I thought that was abnormal enough. I didn’t expect that now there is another student from another school who is stronger than Lin Tianming. Is he going to defeat my Imperial Capital University?”
Listening to the discussions of the onlookers and students, Wang Jian, who happened to witness the battle on the spot, felt the same way.
"How come the freshmen who just entered school this time are all so powerful? We have Lin Tianming in the Imperial Capital Academy, and this North Shore Academy also has Meng Xiyue!"
At this moment, a voice came from behind Wang Jian, who was talking to himself, which made his blood pressure soar.
"Hey... Tianming, isn't this your brother-in-law who you beat up earlier? What a coincidence, he's also here watching the fight! We shouldn't be too late, right? Why can't we see any fighting going on in the Wind Chime Arena?"
