Chapter 327: Part 2

Chapter 328: Enticement: Part 2

“I understand.” Lin Sheng nodded.

To him, going anyway was fine by him. The revealing of his hand this time around was in line with his thinking that it was time to show his true powers.

He had been suppressing his dark power development all these while. It could be said, ever since the awakening of his dark powers until now, the training of his dark powers were done almost piecemeal.

It was mainly for him to wait for his holy power and his Crag Dragon blood to strengthen his body.

With enough time and enough souls, his capabilities would increase by leaps and bounds.

All of these was of course not known to Auldmandiller.

He only knew that he had discovered a Suncrown-level genius with his own hands! So he happily went to report the matter to the principal.

And with Lin Sheng’s agreement, he had given the recordings of the former’s fight with Sharmika to the academy’s upper echelon.

With Miga drafting a large number of the academy’s combat ability, with eighty percent of the academy’s top fighting force, the principal included, all away from the academy, so they could only communicate via long-range communications.

So, with extraordinary times comes extraordinary handling, with Vice Principal Suna’s assistance, the academy started training young lecturers and tutors in full force, and also taking the crème of the crop of the student body and sending them on missions.

And just at this moment, Lin Sheng’s details and recordings were sent over, and after confirmation, his name was quickly included in the list.

…

The next morning.

After breakfast, Lin Sheng walk out of the fortress and found a patch of grass to lie down and rest. He then took out his phone to look at the forum posts.

The battle yesterday had already been spread all across Baine University’s student group forum…

And the top three posts are all about him.

“The ace of Soul Fortress, Marguerite? Milla? Let me tell you the truth!”

The headline looked rather simple, but its contents were anything but.

“An epic battle by the strongest student in Baine University bar none! Lin Sheng the Demonheart! The hidden boss in Soul Fortress, the third member of Baine’s invincible elites?”

Lin Sheng was speechless.

‘Demonheart? Who the hell gave him that silly moniker? Shouldn’t it be Beastheart?” As he cringed, he opened the third post.

The opening post was the surveillance footage of him fighting with Sharmika. As the Soul Fortress’ surveillance system was the top of the line HD equipment, all of the recordings were pretty much clear.

And below the opening post were row after row of postings praising him, calling him the Demon King as he brutally sent Sharmika’s two main maids running with their tails between their legs.

Some were talking about how strong he was compared to the other two Invincibles, but those posts were soon drowned out by the deluge of other posts.

As Lin Sheng did not hold back, any pros worth his or her salt could see that Lin Sheng was already about to reach the watermark of an Oppressor-class.

But the other two ace students did not display such prowess before so no one knew how it will end up.

“Hurrah to the Soul Fortress!!”

“Hurrah to the Soul Fortress!!”

The latter comments seemed to have changed as the members of the Soul Fortress had come to join in the ruckus.

Lin Sheng read the forum post for a while more and as soon as he got bored of it, he turned it off and looked at other posts.

Aside from the incident he was involved in, the rest of the posts were talking about the upper echelons of each school being drafted to join the battle. This was the topic that most people paid attention to.

Even as strong as he was, Lin Sheng was only a student, and for Five-winged and above lecturers to be drafted; that meant the situation was extremely critical.

But what Lin Sheng never expected was that not long after he registered his account, the student group had already managed to dig out his ID.

And not even an hour later, his user name was listed on the forum’s sticky post in a list alongside the other ace students.

Not long later, someone had tagged him.

Lin Sheng tapped on out of curiosity on the ‘My logs’ column and read the tag.

It was a student investigation mission done in cooperation with the Asterism, and the person who tagged him was one of the back-office investigating students who had been from the Soul Fortress.

There were quite a number of students from the Soul Fortress, including those who had dropped out of the school. While these students may be dropouts, but they were still elites that most workshops would fight for.

Auldmandiller may have been a stern teacher with a terrible bias streak, but when it came to education, he did not hold anything back. So any student that he had thought, even if they dropped out later, were still considered elites when they leave.

Lin Sheng opened the post to read and could tell that the students there were at their wit’s end.

Not only did they tagged Lin Sheng, but all of the top twenty ace students and the reason was simple.

Another team from a different university had appeared just as they were about to complete their mission, and had their eyes on the prize!

So the two sides clashed, as they tried to draw in allies.

Due to the fact this was a scuffle between students, there was an unwritten rule that no parent or teachers should be involved, and who does that proved that they are unworthy, and will be looked down upon.

As for tagging Lin Sheng and the rest, the students did it with the thought that they had nothing to lose, and if an ace were to be interested, they had all to gain.

Lin Sheng scrolled down and read the post properly. The mission was to hunt down a mutated darkbeast bearing a low-level dark fruit within it. These beasts had been mutated by the radiation of the Blacktide in both body and soul and turned into a Darksider-like beast.

As there were civilian deaths, and normal military operations proved ineffective, the Asterism was deployed to wipe them out. Baine University, as the closest Darksider organization, sending out teams of students was expected.

Lin Sheng had no interest in the low-level dark fruit. He had seen this in the Soul Fortress laboratory before, it was a normal beast heart that had been corrupted by dark powers.

Due to its structure, there would be remaining dark powers in it that could be absorbed to increase one’s dark powers.

But that was useless to him.

He was not training now as his dark power growth was too fast, and will cause his holy power to grow explosively as well, straining his body. But what piqued his interest was a Xilin refugee camp mentioned in the post.

“I should take some time to check it out when I’m free.” He started to miss Xilin.

That was after all the place he had lived for ten odd years, and Xilin was the place most similar to China in his past life.

He had unconsciously taken the place as his hometown now.

As he broke out from his thought, Lin Sheng sensed something as he looked towards the Soul Fortress’ main gate.

A group of students had already gathered around there as they stood by the gate, seemingly to send someone off.

Lin Sheng looked at the person at the front of the crowd, and it was indeed Marguerite.

“Oh yeah, she should be leaving now.”

Lin Sheng realized that the cause of the ruckus yesterday was all due to Marguerite. Sharmika’s motive all along was Marguerite.

“I heard that Marguerite’s family is rather influential in Olro’s Hellfire…” Lin Sheng suddenly recalled a piece of information he had previously read.

Influential meant they had money and influence in abundance.

Lin Sheng pondered for a bit as he looked on as Margaret was sent off by the students as she slowly made her way out of the main gate.

He smiled as he stood up. Taking a step forward, his silhouette flickered and disappeared.
