Chapter 197: Idol
Chapter 197: Idol
Falcon-type monsters came and went without a trace, and they were the hardest to hunt among all monsters.
But Lin Chuan had personally killed more than one hundred falcon-type monsters and extracted their vitality magnetic fields to make them resonate with his spirit energy magnetic field. Then, he created a powerful beast soul known as the Undying Bird.
It was no wonder how he had managed to reach the ranks of Heaven Realm elites before he was thirty and become one of the youngest four star superhumans in Dragon City.
The greatest difference between those in Earth Realm and Heaven Realm was that the latter had already mastered the secrets of maglev, and they could resist the pull of gravity and fly freely in the sky.
Of course, normal four-star superhumans only levitated in the air, since they had just reached Heaven Realm. It was very difficult for them to fly as swiftly as falcons.
But with the Undying Bird supporting him, Lin Chuan was not limited by his realm. He descended from the sky as if he really had a pair of burning wings on his back. The wings of fire swept through the area, and in an instant, they sent the remaining hundreds of Swamp Rats into the air. They were reduced to screeching fireballs, and before they landed on the ground, they were burnt to a crisp with the Blood Flower bacterial flora in their bodies.
“Weeping Reaper Lin Chuan!”
Shao Jianqing, Xu Sheng, and Han Xing might not have been from Agricultural University, but they knew this young elite who had recently become really famous online. Delight shone on their faces.
Sun Ya, Xie Feng, Duan Lian, and Jiang Rui were so happy that they wept and cheered in delight.
With a Heaven Realm elite next to them, victory was assured.
Once the Blood Flower sclerotia was destroyed, the remaining bacterial flora acted like monsters without a leader, and they soon fell apart and rotted away.
Lin Chuan swung a chain spear made from a superbeast’s spine. It was crystalline and had fire patterns surging on it. With a single swing, he burnt all the Swamp Rats and Blood Flower bacterial flora that were making their last struggle against death.
In an instant, the last bewitching ball of flame was extinguished with a pained screech.
Crack! Crack!
The chain spear with the fire patterns had an attack range that was several meters long. The segments pulled back and connected together to turn into a longspear that was two meters long. The bottom of the spearhead had four metallic wings that pointed diagonally upward. With Lin Chuan’s dancing long hair and gloomy eyes, he looked so handsome that even his parents would want to disown him to get to know him!
Sun Ya and Shao Jianqing instantly forgot the terror they felt from the Will o’ the Wisp Dragon and the blood-red rat hordes. Their hearts were sparkling with adoration.
Even Wu Wu was staring at Lin Chuan fixedly and gulped in secret. No one knew whether she wanted to eat him, or, you know, “eat” him.
“No way, Wu Wu, do you have such low-class hobbies as well?” Meng Chao asked.
Even so, he could not help but follow customs as well. He ran over to Lin Chuan with great excitement. “Senior Lin Chuan, hello, I’m—”
“I know. You’re Meng Chao. You live in Blessed Heavenly Garden, and you can be considered to be my neighbor.” Lin Chuan smiled in a very gentle manner, and it looked as if his pores were shining as well.
“You know me?” Meng Chao was ecstatic.
Lin Chuan had not been acting alone. Instead, once he sensed the presence of a powerful beast and the monstrous flower, he called upon a large amount of reinforcements. But instead of keeping pace with them, he came first with his Undying Bird.
Soon, five crawler trucks that could travel through all terrains came to the bloody battlefield with hunters and powerful soldiers.
The experienced fighters were stunned for a long time when they saw the Swamp Rat torn limbs and the Will o’ the Wisp materials Meng Chao had managed to gather.
They did not expect that the freshmen would dare to fight head-on against the king of Nightmarish Beasts, and it was even one that was infested by a Blood Flower. But even more astonishing was that they had managed to win beautifully.
This was especially the case for Meng Chao. He had seized every second he had to harvest a really fresh and undamaged Blood Flower sclerotia, which would contribute greatly toward their efforts of making a relative suppressant and antidote for cracking the secrets of the Blood Flower.
Some of the experienced hunters and elite scouts from the military gave him a thumbs up once they understood what had happened.
From that moment on, with the testimonies from the veterans and the four specially recruited students, the Ultimate Style was no longer limited to just being a good weapon against normal monsters. It now entered the hall of fame and now truly stood on equal footing with Beast Soul Style, Gun Fighting Style, Overkill Style, and the other traditional martial arts styles.
But Meng Chao’s focus was on Lin Chuan.
One of the reasons was because he wanted to use Lin Chuan’s ability to capture countless girls’ hearts and fame to promote the Ultimate Style. The other reason was that Lin Chuan was really his idol.
“Big Brother Lin, did you know that I’ve been idolizing you since a long time ago?” Meng Chao said excitedly in the medical car. “When I was still in elementary school, I heard about you getting into Agricultural University’s martial arts course. Blessed Heavenly Garden, Joyous Heavenly Garden, Longevity Heavenly Garden, and Happiness Heavenly Garden are bound together.
“We can count on one hand just how many people from these four public renting housing areas have managed to get into university, and you even got into an ace course in Agricultural University’s martial arts course!
“The teenagers in our area all grew up listening to your story. You’re the legendary ace student, and everyone loves but also hates you. We worship your strength, but every time we procrastinated on our studies, our parents would lecture us, and they would always use you as an example.
“They’d say something like, ‘Look at Lin Chuan from the next area.’ At that time, I would always think, ‘Who do you think Lin Chuan is? He’s a legendary genius and a rare talent. I can’t compare to him. If I had one-tenth of his talent, you’d be burning incense in temples and praying!’”
His words were sincere, and it made Lin Chuan laugh like a pig.
And since he was so handsome, even if he laughed like a pig, he still managed to dazzle the Medical University girl who was bandaging Meng Chao’s wounds. Her face turned red, and her heart raced, and she nearly wrapped Meng Chao’s mouth with bandages.
“Don’t say that, Meng Chao, you’ll make me blush,” Lin Chuan said with a smile. “You’ve been really popular lately too. While I was in Graveyard Forest, I never went online. Even so, I’ve heard people talk about you a few times. When I went back to Shattered Starlake and saw some of the old faces from Agricultural University, I heard rumors about you every single day.
“You should know the Griffin Li Yinzi. She was my personal tutor while I was at university, and she praised you to high heavens. She said that you’re even more outstanding than I was in the past and said that no matter what, I have to stay in Shattered Starlake for some time to give you some cultivating tips.”
“No way?” Meng Chao blushed. “Ms. Li... regards me so highly?”
Meng Chao thought that Li Yingzi was very averse to him.
After all, the Ultimate Style and the Beast Soul Style were fighting over the cultivation resources in the martial arts course, which would stir up conflict. He had also tricked her into pulling down Gu Jianbo’s pants. There was no way she would forget about the second thing so easily, right?
“Ms. Li is your usual person with a soft heart, even though her tongue is poisonous. While I was in university, she was someone with a face of ice, but fiery passion,” Lin Chuan said with a smile. “I heard her talk a lot about you and Mr. Gu Jianbo. In fact, she even mentioned a few times that she was regretting her decision to give up on Project 1,024.
“She also expressed her delight about your achievements. I thought that she was exaggerating things, because no matter what, you’re just a freshman, and at most, you were just lucky to be in the right place at the right time. There’s no way you’d be that strong.
“But after seeing you kill the Will o’ the Wisp Dragon and how you fought against the blood-red rat horde, I know that she wasn’t exaggerating when she talked about you. In fact, her comments were really reserved.”
His words stunned the Medical University girl who was treating Meng Chao.
She could not understand how Meng Chao, who seemed to be an ordinary freshman, could make the legendary Weeping Reaper give him such a high appraisal.
Meng Chao was on cloud nine when he was acknowledged by his idol. The pain and fatigue from the fight instantly vanished, and he smiled. “Big Brother Lin, I didn’t expect you to be so cordial!”
“Do I look like someone who is very difficult to approach?” Lin Chuan intentionally schooled his face. Half a second later, he could no longer keep up the farce and smiled. “I became curious because of Ms. Li, and after I got to know of your situation, I learned that we’re actually neighbors who are just one street away from each other. Perhaps we even saw each other when we were younger.
“In fact, we went to the same elementary school. It’s just as you said, it’s very difficult for someone from small public renting housing areas in Blessed Heavenly Garden, Joyous Heavenly Garden, Longevity Heavenly Garden, and Happiness Heavenly Garden to get into university, and it’s even more difficult for someone to get into a famous university’s ace course. It’s even more difficult for someone like this to find his own footing in a university filled with powerful people.
“As I watched you grow and gradually show your brilliance, I thought that I was looking at my past self. Even if Ms. Li didn’t ask for my help, if I could help, I’d definitely help you!”
“Thanks, Big Brother Lin!”
Meng Chao exhaled.
Lin Chuan was very easy to approach, and the specially recruited students had witnessed the power of the Ultimate Style. He could be said to have completed most of the Fight for the Ultimate Style Quest.
A thought rose in his mind, and he said, “I went to Blessed Happiness Street Elementary School at that time. Big Brother Lin, did you go there as well?”
“That’s right.” Lin Chuan held back his laughter. “The children from the four public renting housing areas all go to Blessed Happiness Street Elementary School. Look, we’re elementary school mates, and we’re also university mates. We share a direct senior-junior relationship!”
“My homeroom teacher was a female teacher with a fair face. She had freckles all over her face, was petite, and a seemingly gentle woman. She taught physical education. She was called... Ms. Sun. It’s either Sun Yali or Sun Liya. I forgot,” Meng Chao said.
“Do you know her, Big Brother Lin? She might have looked like a lady, but her Thunder Cloud Palm was very vicious, and when she shouted, her voice was even louder than thunder. Her husband was our language teacher, and he was a big, burly man who was nearly 190 cm tall, but in front of her, he acted as obediently as a chick!”
“Seriously?” At that moment, Lin Chuan’s eyes lit up as well, and he said excitedly, “Ms. Sun was also my homeroom teacher for three years. I remember that there was a new male language teacher who had just been transferred over at that time. He looked pretty handsome and elegant, and he was filled with wisdom. He could tell us a lot of stories from Earth, so everyone liked his language classes a lot.
“But Ms. Sun was very unreasonable. She would usually occupy the language classes and change them into her physical education classes. The students seethed with anger but did not dare to say anything. So I thought of a trick.
“At that time, Ms. Sun and the language teacher, Mr. Huang, were both not married. I thought that Ms. Sun seemed to fancy him, so I told her ‘You can’t be so hot-headed all the time and shout like a thunderclap. I won’t ask you to change, but you should endure for a period of time and put on a disguise to trick Mr. Huang into your hands before you reveal your true colors, right?’
“I was thinking that if the homeroom teacher and the language teacher got together, she would definitely feel too embarrassed to occupy her husband’s language classes, right?
“I didn’t expect that they’d actually get married later, and the homeroom teacher would occupy all the language classes without even bothering to put on a disguise anymore. And she even forced the language teacher to practice Thunder Cloud Palm with us, so in the end, the language teacher didn’t have time to tell us stories from Earth at all!”
Meng Chao laughed so much that he leaned back.
“It’s no wonder, then! Whenever Mr. Huan saw us, it looked like he hated us. So you were the one who did this!”
Being taught by the same homeroom teacher as his idol was a very strange feeling.
In an instant, they became even closer than before.
