The situation is complicated.

Cheng Lin had a headache.

After asking a few questions, he finally figured out what was going on.

The second monthly exam took place during his time in Sioux Province.

Originally, the academy's arrangement was that they would finish exploring the magic capital, and after they came back, they would take the second monthly exam in a few days.

The academy probably thought that Cheng Lin would relax for three or five days at most, and then come back just in time.

As a result, he gave himself a long vacation of more than ten days.

So it was a perfect miss.

No, Cheng Lin himself couldn't accept this logic, because he didn't receive the news at all.

It stands to reason that if the monthly exam is coming, the college counselor should at least send a message to himself and inform himself in advance to return, right?

It turned out to be nothing.

This is obviously an anomaly.

"I don't know about the monthly exams at all, and no one in the academy has informed me?" Cheng Lin expressed his doubts.

The well-informed Sun Xiao smacked his lips and said: "I heard a piece of grapevine, it is said that Vice President Kong was going to arrange for someone to notify you to come back, but he was stopped by Deputy Director Huang, Deputy Secretary Huang meant, since you have a lot of fun, then notify you." ”

“……”

Cheng Lin supported his forehead, can this Huang Yin be reliable, is she so willful?

Wrong.

He thought about it carefully, and faintly had a guess, I am afraid that this was deliberate by Huang Yin, if she had long wanted to let herself help repair the magic weapon, would it be deliberately not allowed to come back to take the monthly exam.

Then she would lose the monthly exam ranking reward and lack cultivation resources, and then she would naturally let him go to the cultivation weapon to exchange resources......

This is a good possibility.

It's just that no one expected that the projection came out later, and Cheng Lin stole into the projection, so Huang Yin changed his statement and punished him for his promotion material reward in the name of punishment.

To put it bluntly, it was to find a way to get stuck in him, so that he would be willing to help with the cultivator......

"Can this leader be able to do it, Yang Congxian is much more reliable than her."

Cheng Lin looked up to the sky and sighed in his heart, feeling that Huang Yin, the leader, was too jumpy.

If Yang Congxian or Shen Shanjing were here, it would be absolutely impossible to do this, and only a leader with a character like Huang Yin would do this.

He couldn't laugh or cry.

But things have already happened, and it's useless to dwell on them.

As a result, he unknowingly missed the second monthly exam, and Han Lun, a "repeater", took the opportunity to rise and became the new first place in one fell swoop.

Fortunately, the college did not rigidly change his dormitory back to Block F according to the ranking, otherwise Cheng Lin would have hit the wall.

Shameless to face the father of Building F......

……

"So, he squeezed out my place while I wasn't there?" Cheng Lin rubbed his temples and said.

"I can't say that, after all, this Han Lun is one year older than us, he has been cultivating for a long time, he has also entered a division, he enjoys a lot of resources, and his strength is indeed not at the same level as ours, even if you participate, it is impossible to beat him." Fu Zhongting analyzed rationally.

Seeing him like this, Hua Bei was unhappy: "Can you not increase the morale of others and destroy the prestige of your own people?" Why can't Cheng Lin beat him? ”

Fu Zhongting was helpless: "But his strength is really strong, a player like you has to be seconded if he goes up." ”

Hua Bei rolled her eyes: "It's as if you weren't instantaneous." ”

Fu Zhongting: "......"

Listening to the two of them arguing, Cheng Lin was quite surprised.

Look at what this means, Fu Zhongting was actually seconded? This is unusual.

"You've fought him? By the way, what is your ranking this time? Cheng Lin looked at Fu Zhongting and asked curiously.

Fu Zhongting nodded, with a straight face: "I fought with him in the monthly exam, and he crushed me in all directions, as for the ranking...... I'm still number two. ”

As he spoke, the squinting classmate Fu Zhongting showed a rare hint of embarrassment.

However, there was no frustration in his tone.

Because it's an unfair contest.

If the cultivation time of the two was the same and the resources consumed were the same, Fu Zhongting was confident that he would never be defeated by Han Lun.

Is that so......

Fu Zhongting is currently in the third section of the second grade, and the progress of this repair is already very good, second only to Cheng Lin in this session.

And being able to hang and beat him shows that this Han Lun must be above the third grade.

asked, sure enough, according to public information, Han Lun's current cultivation is the third stage of the third grade.

"No wonder we won the first place."

Cheng Lin nodded.

Fu Zhongting opened his mouth and said solemnly: "So, I suggest that you ignore his invitation, Han Lun obviously wants to defeat everyone, come to Liwei, and block the students' negative public opinion about him."

And you, at present, have become the last hope of the entire second session, more than 2,000 students, at this time, Han Lun came over, and he definitely wanted to challenge you.

If my guess is right, if he wants to be powerful, he will definitely not show mercy, when the time comes, you will be injured, and treating the injury will require resources and time, which will greatly slow down your cultivation speed, no matter how you look at it, you will suffer.

Let's just ignore him, it may be gossiped about, but we don't need to care about that.

They can say whatever they like, just treat it coldly. ”

Xie Qingke next to him also nodded, and said seriously: "Cheng Lin, my opinion is the same as Fu Zhongting, you must ignore this challenge, if you do, Han Lun will succeed." ”

Sun Xiao also looked serious: "I also think the same way, the academy has rules, Han Lun can't make a move on you if you don't agree, he doesn't dare."

But if he wants to suppress the negative voice, he will definitely need to step on your position to reverse the image and become a well-deserved first place, and the note given to you must be a challenge, if you take it, you will suffer a big loss! ”

Hua Bei also nodded like a chick pecking rice: "That's right, let's ignore him!" ”

The rest of the people also persuaded one after another, and their opinions were very unanimous, that is, to let Cheng Lin ignore Han Lun and not give him a chance to challenge.

Cheng Lin silently pinched his chopsticks and was silent.

He understood that everyone had good intentions, and at the noon gathering, he only talked about some experiences in Su Province, but he had not yet revealed his promotion to the third grade.

Therefore, in their opinion, if they want to fight Han Lun, they will definitely lose.

In this case, the most sensible thing to do is to treat it cold.

Obviously, they were worried that Cheng Lin would be "provoked", and they would rush forward with enthusiasm and suffer a big loss, so they worked together to persuade him.

Facing the concerned eyes, Cheng Lin's heart warmed slightly.

But his eyes flickered.

Although he is young, he already knows the importance of many experiences, so naturally he cannot be easily fooled...... Merely...... He had other plans......

"Han Lun jumped like this, did the academy just sit idly by?"

Cheng Lin asked.

"The attitude of the academy is a little confusing, if it is infighting, there is absolutely zero tolerance, but if it is open, the two sides agree to 'learn' and 'challenge', the academy will not stop it."

Xie Qingke hesitated, "After all, we are not ordinary students, but cultivators, and the academy means that they don't want us to be flowers in a greenhouse.

Proper fighting is necessary and not forbidden.

Only when you have been injured and seen blood can you carry the burden in the future. ”

"Understandable." Cheng Lin nodded, thought for a moment, picked up a piece of vegetables with chopsticks, and said lightly, "Anyway, it's nothing to do at night, I don't think it's okay to meet this senior Han." ”

"Cheng Lin, you must not ......"

Everyone was in a hurry and blocked one after another, Fu Zhongting even pressed his shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be impulsive!" Han Lun is a third-grade monk! ”

"I know."

Cheng Lin blinked, the aura in his body shook slightly, and he took the initiative to exude the aura of a third-grade cultivator, and confined it to the surrounding three meters.

Fu Zhongting and the others were shrouded in aura, and instantly changed color, and then their eyes lit up, and their faces were surprised: "You ......"

Cheng Lin smiled and bowed his head: "Yes, I have become a third grade." ”

……

……

Nine forty p.m.

Cheng Lin and his party walked out of the cafeteria full of wine and food, and walked along the newly built road towards the ability practice area.

Several people expressed great shock at his promotion to the third grade.

Still, in addition to being shocked, they expressed concern.

Even though Cheng Lin has become a third-grade, he is a newcomer after all, and he hasn't even mastered the third-grade ability, but what about Han Lun? People are already three products and 3 sections, if you use unofficial terms, maybe it is already the peak of three products?

Moreover, it also has a lot of combat experience.

No matter how you look at it, Cheng Lin has no hope of winning.

However, Cheng Lin was quite insistent on this, saying that he must go and see, and he just wanted to see.

And promised that he would never accept the challenge immediately, in order to prevent Cheng Lin from being cheated impulsively, several people had to follow him to escort him, which made him helpless and warm.

So, on the campus covered in night.

A team of seven people drove mightily towards the ability practice area.

But when they arrived, they all frowned:

"It's ...... What's going on? ”
