Chapter 296: Promotion As Fast As A Rocket!
Last time we met, Lu Pingping was still a newbie professional below Level 50.
It's been over a year, and she's already Rank Three. Her promotion speed is faster than riding a rocket.
Her equipment is also quite luxurious, wearing a full set of Rank Three legendary gear.
You should know, Lu Pingping is a typical commoner with no background.
As for Su Miaoyue, she has already been promoted to Rank Four.
Aside from her legendary gear, the weapon hanging from her waist is a Mythical Level one-handed sword.
Even the recovery potions she uses are of high quality.
Even someone like Li Yalu, a rich young lady, can't compare to their extravagance.
The professionals from Soaring Dragon University gathered spontaneously.
They recognized Chen Yu and initially thought they had found their backbone.
But they discovered that Chen Yu was only Rank Two, and their confidence instantly vanished.
In this situation, even a Rank Two golden boss wouldn't be of much help, right?
Only Lu Pingping is full of confidence, and her personal admiration for Chen Yu has reached its peak.
Just then, a Rank Four professional from the opposing camp stepped forward and shouted loudly:
"I heard you guys are the geniuses of Soaring Dragon University? The new elite of the Soaring Dragon Empire?"
"Go back to school and drink milk! Hahaha!"
Over two hundred professionals from the Flour Country burst into laughter.
Mocking and insults filled the air.
The professionals from Soaring Dragon University were filled with anger.
But due to the overwhelming number of the other side, they didn't dare to act recklessly.
"How about we temporarily retreat and wait for the mentor to handle this?" a Rank Three student suggested.
The majority of the students from Soaring Dragon University have influential backgrounds.
If they can't win, they call their parents. This is the way they have grown up.
"You disgraceful bunch! If you want to leave, then leave! I'll kill these bastards!" Yuan Xiao, who had fully recovered, ran back and shouted excitedly.
His previously severed arm had grown back, and he had changed into a new set of equipment.
However, he still had a face covered in dirt, with disheveled hair that he hadn't had time to tidy up.
"Don't make a scene!" Li Hao grabbed Yuan Xiao's arm.
Most of the students from Soaring Dragon University were relatively clear-headed.
In the chaotic underground space earlier, everyone had to fight on their own.
But now, the gap in strength between the two sides was obvious, and both sides were prepared.
If a conflict were to break out, they might have to reveal some life-saving cards and lose face and substance.
The professionals from the Flour Country were just making noise and didn't dare to start a fight.
In fact, the Flour Country professionals suffered heavy losses in the chaotic battle in the underground space earlier.
The geniuses from Soaring Dragon University had abundant resources, with high-quality talents, skills, and consumables.
The number of people who entered was the same as the number of people who came out.
But many of the Flour Country professionals had already died.
Ordinary Rank Three professionals were no different from small monsters in front of the Rank Three professionals from Soaring Dragon University.
Rank Four against Rank Three could only result in a draw, and some might even be at a disadvantage.
Only Rank Five could firmly suppress them.
However, the Rank Four students from Soaring Dragon University wouldn't have too much trouble facing the Rank Five professionals from the Flour Country.
Now, neither side really wants to start a fight.
Soaring Dragon University feels that it is not worth exchanging their own trump cards for the lives of a group of monkeys.
The monkeys are also similar.
Everyone is pursuing their own interests, so why risk their lives?
They are confident in their numbers and believe that there is no problem with provoking a fight, but no one dares to take the lead.
Both sides are waiting for reinforcements, waiting for a strong person who can settle the matter with one blow.
The professionals from the Flour Country are still making noise.
A Rank Four professional steps forward and shouts loudly, "Isn't your Soaring Dragon Empire known for having the most talented individuals throughout history?"
"Does he dare to come out and fight me?"
"Could it all be just empty talk? Hahaha!"
"What kind of talent? He's just a waste hiding behind women!" Another person steps forward and mocks loudly.
The students of Soaring Dragon University look strange and look towards Chen Yu.
"These people are so brave," Chen Yu's face darkens.
"They only dare to say such things because you're not here," Lu Pingping says angrily.
Chen Yu immediately realizes.
These people are not intentionally mocking him, but rather mocking Soaring Dragon University by belittling him.
After all, his reputation is great, equivalent to the face of Soaring Dragon University.
It's like a situation where there are no tigers in the mountains, so the monkeys declare themselves kings.
"What does it mean to hide behind women?" Chen Yu curiously asks.
Since he changed jobs, he has always been a lone wolf. There hasn't been any major event that he participated in as part of a team, let alone hiding behind women.
If there were women who sheltered him from wind and rain, it could only be Yun Chenyu, the loli teacher, Ling Xiuhe from the Throne of Fire, Li Xiangyue from the Shadow Devouring Throne, or even Dongfang Xi from the Flower Origin Emperor Monarch.
These people are all powerful elders. Just one appearance from them would scare these monkeys.
How dare they call them "women"?
Moreover, how could these monkeys know about Chen Yu's relationship with these people?
"Hehe, well, let's ask our school flower, Su Miaoyue," Li Wei raises an eyebrow at Chen Yu.
Su Miaoyue glares at Li Wei.
In high school, she considered herself a beautiful school flower.
But at Soaring Dragon University, mentioning this term makes her feel like a joke.
Her backbone has almost been broken by those jealous female classmates.
"These monkeys are shameless. Someone has been insulting you since we were underground," Lu Pingping explains. "Yueyue would kill anyone who insulted her, so they're probably scared of her."
So, this statement from the other side acknowledges Su Miaoyue's combat power.
But it is still mocking Soaring Dragon University by mocking Chen Yu.
As a side effect, it also provokes the students of Soaring Dragon University, to see if anyone can't help but take action.
With the other side prepared for battle, if Soaring Dragon University takes the first move, they will definitely suffer.
"Chen Yu, you heard them insulting you," Yuan Xiao is indignant. "Let's go and slaughter them!"
After speaking, she scans the professionals from Soaring Dragon University and snorts, "A bunch of cowards, not worthy of planning!"
In the past, during the ranking competition, Yuan Xiao also made harsh remarks mocking Chen Yu, saying she wanted to fight him one-on-one.
Now she is defending him because of the idiom.
Although this girl has a hot temper and likes to fight, she has a sense of justice and a feeling of enjoying the pleasures of life.
"Old Chen, are you in or not? We've been fed up with these monkeys for a long time!" Li Wei is also filled with indignation.
"You guys rest for a while, I'll go talk to them," Chen Yu says with a smile.
Even the forbidden powerful individuals dare not mock him so directly, but these monkeys have turned the world upside down.
Just as Chen Yu pushes through the crowd and walks to the front, ready to take action, he realizes that someone has already taken the lead.
