Chapter 1947: The Whole Arena Is Stunned! He’s the Number One? The Strength of Humanity!
After Ye Ruoyu had left for quite a while.
Only then did the students in the square gradually come back to their senses.
And only then did they notice something felt off!!
"That’s not right! When Senior Ye came over just now, he looked furious, like he wanted to kill the culprit who injured Senior Ruofeng, so why did he suddenly agree?"
"Yeah, judging by his demeanor, it seemed like... he knew that Mu Jinyu?"
"And he seemed quite afraid?!"
"..."
After someone spoke the last sentence out loud, immediately a group of people nodded in agreement, all feeling they hadn’t seen wrong. Among the senior students, the fifth-ranked Ye Ruoyu indeed seemed somewhat afraid of Mu Jinyu just then.
He was so scared that he didn’t even dare to stay longer, not even caring about his brother.
"How can this be?!"
"Could it be that after Mu Jinyu advanced to senior student, he caused some trouble again?"
"Impossible! Senior Ye is ranked fifth among senior students, even if Mu Jinyu caused some trouble, he wouldn’t be afraid of him! His behavior seems clearly... "
Someone hesitated to voice their guess, but eventually, someone added!
"It’s obvious that Mu Jinyu’s ranking among the senior students is higher than his, making Ye Ruoyu reluctant to provoke him!"
These words caused the entire crowd to fall into a deathly silence.
Everyone gasped.
"How is that possible?"
"Senior Ye is already ranked fifth among senior students? If Mu Jinyu is stronger than him, making him shy away from provoking, doesn’t that mean he’s at least ranked third?!"
"Hiss?!"
"Can’t be, right?!"
The crowd speculated endlessly but found it hard to believe.
How long has it been since Mu Jinyu became a senior student?
Has he already advanced to being in the top three?
That can’t be right?
That’s just too unbelievable?
Yet, if this explanation is unreliable, then how does one account for Ye Ruoyu’s fearful attitude towards Mu Jinyu?
Suddenly, everyone’s gaze shifted to the few senior students present!
Perhaps, as senior students, they might know some inside information!
"Seniors! You are all senior students, do you know anything?"
The crowd eagerly looked at the few senior students, hoping to glean some clues from them!
"Sigh..."
Originally reluctant to disclose Mu Jinyu’s current ranking, seeing them make guesses close to the truth, they sighed and, without further concealment, whispered:
"Mu Jinyu, on his first day as a senior student, consecutively defeated Shi Yiran, Ning Ruofan, and Lu Kaige, becoming the top among senior students!"
"Boom!!!"
Their words were no less than dropping a bomb, leaving the crowd in complete shock and despair!
"How can this be..."
They initially thought guessing Mu Jinyu was among the top three was already outrageous.
Little did they know, even their outrageous guess was rather conservative.
Mu Jinyu had already become the number one senior student.
And it was the result of his first day as a senior student!
Many found this news overwhelmingly shocking, making it hard to accept. They looked at the few senior students, trembling: "You... you aren’t joking with us, are you? Are you teasing us?"
This news was indeed too exaggerated and terrifying.
Shi Yiran, Ning Ruofan, and Lu Kaige, these individuals have long held their positions within the top three senior students, none of them are easy opponents?
They were unbelievably strong, almost impossible for anyone to shake their status!
Yet, now someone tells them that a newcomer merely became a senior student, and managed to topple them all, standing above everyone.
This shattered how many people’s prides!!
What’s more important, many remembered Mu Jinyu was a pureblood Human Race!
This made it even more incredible!
Weren’t pureblood Humans considered useless?
Even if a pureblood Human could cultivate, their strength was supposed to be limited?
How did Mu Jinyu achieve this?
This makes the prestigious bloodlines of various Powerful Races seem utterly worthless.
Seeing these people’s utterly shocked expressions, the few senior students inexplicably felt a bit delighted, then sternly said: "Who’s joking with you?"
"Mu Jinyu is just that strong, he’s already the number one!"
"Otherwise, why do you think Ye Ruoyu got so scared?"
"If he was just the third-ranked, Ye Ruoyu wouldn’t be that afraid!"
"After all, it would’ve been just two ranks higher!"
"But Mu Jinyu is number one now, having consecutively defeated Shi Yiran and the others and reached the pinnacle, do you think he wouldn’t fear encountering Mu Jinyu..."
These senior students, rarely speaking, revealed the truth.
"But..."
The crowd, still finding it hard to accept, gradually began to believe this was likely the truth.
However, doubts lingered in their hearts, prompting them to ask:
"Then why, if he became the number one senior student some days ago, has it not been heard of?"
"Yeah?! Why didn’t we know?"
Upon hearing the curious inquiries.
The senior students immediately felt a bit embarrassed, rubbing their noses as they explained:
"After all, his victory made us too embarrassed, becoming the number one on his first day as a senior student. If this were leaked, where would we senior students’ faces go?"
"Wouldn’t others think we senior students are all losers?"
"So, in tacit agreement, we didn’t spread his victory around, instead keeping it within, planning to let it gradually come out over time, making it seem less dramatic!"
"But now that plans can’t keep up with changes, saying it outright isn’t a big deal either!"
These senior students explained, looking somewhat embarrassed.
And after hearing their answers, the crowd nodded in understanding, realizing it was indeed the case!
Indeed!
Senior students are already the most outstanding at the Dongyue Mansion, worshiped and aspired by beginners and intermediates.
Each senior student is Heaven’s Pride of Dongyue Mansion.
Of course, they are extremely proud too.
Yet it turns out, someone who just became a senior student smashed their pride within a day, trampled their pride into the dirt, and proved that senior students weren’t invincible.
They naturally felt too ashamed to bring this matter up much!
And they didn’t want others to know more about this incident!
After all, to them, someone who just became a senior student, yet not accepted by them, stood between being an intermediate and a senior student.
After hearing these senior students’ explanations, everyone gradually accepted this reality.
They were overwhelmingly shocked at that moment.
All complaints about Mu Jinyu attacking members of the royal clan, leading to Dongyue Mansion’s disaster, were forgotten.
One by one, their eyes burned with a desire, wondering if they practiced Human Race Cultivation Technique, could they be as strong as Mu Jinyu?
