Chapter 127 At That Time
After the match ended, Lin Ye walked out of the Great Soul Arena as usual.
At this moment, the area outside the Grand Battle Arena was filled with spectators who hadn't been able to buy tickets and scalpers.
Among the crowd, a pair of sinister eyes remained fixed on Lin Ye.
It's still morning, the sun is shining brightly, and the warm light feels cozy on your skin.
The streets were bustling with people, and there was some noise.
Lin Ye walked slowly down the street, heading towards home.
Suddenly, the surrounding environment distorted slightly, but Lin Ye didn't seem to notice anything amiss and continued walking at a leisurely pace.
After continuing on for a while, Lin Ye stopped.
It was still bathed in sunlight, but the warmth from before had disappeared, replaced by a faint chill that crept in from all directions.
A chilling aura seemed to conceal a hint of murderous intent.
As if the environment was cooperating with him, the hustle and bustle of the street quietly turned into silence at that moment.
"Heh, you're quite vigilant, but unfortunately, you discovered it a little too late."
As the sound rang out, an elderly man in white appeared ten meters in front of Lin Ye.
"You must be Shi Nian, an instructor at Canghui Academy. What brings you here?" Lin Ye asked calmly.
"I wouldn't call it guidance, I just need you to disappear." Shi Nian grinned, his face full of smug satisfaction, staring at Lin Ye. As he spoke, his expression gradually turned grotesque.
"Kid, do you know what the greatest joy of my life is?"
"What is it?" Lin Ye seemed oblivious to his maniacal expression and asked cooperatively.
Shi Nian's expression became increasingly perverted, a kind of unrestrained perversion. He grinned, revealing a set of yellowed teeth, and said in a mocking tone, "My greatest pleasure is watching others go mad in my broken dreams until they die."
"It's especially exciting to stifle people like you who are hailed as geniuses, hahahahaha..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ye remained calm and asked, "Why do you want to kill me?"
And you should understand that my background is not something you can mess with.
Lin Ye couldn't quite understand why this guy wanted to kill Tang San in the original story, in order to eliminate his opponent and allow Canghui Academy to win and enter the advancement competition.
The current situation is that today is the last day of the preliminary rounds. Based on Canghui Academy's performance, they are definitely going to be eliminated.
Shi Nian's laughter subsided, and he said, "I know that woman beside you is not simple. She has been by your side for a long time, but I couldn't find an opportunity."
She paused for a moment, then a cruel smile appeared on her lips. "But she's not here today, so who can you rely on?"
Faced with absolute power, your so-called genius is nothing but an ant.
Hearing him say that, Lin Ye understood.
That was pure psychopathism; he enjoyed stifling geniuses and taking pleasure in tormenting others.
Suddenly, Shi Nian's laughter abruptly stopped, like a duck being choked, which was quite comical.
The Snow Empress, dressed in a white gown, descended from the sky. Her figure was light and elegant, her white dress fluttering gently in the wind, its pure white color exuding holiness and nobility.
Snow Empress slowly drifted down to the ground, noble, aloof, and breathtakingly beautiful, like an elf descending to earth.
Her appearance made the surrounding air feel crisp and cold, and snowflakes began to flutter and dance in the air.
Shi Nian swallowed hard, a sense of foreboding washing over him. The arrogance that had been on his face vanished, replaced by deep fear.
Xue Di stood there quietly, her exquisite face expressionless. Facing Shi Nian, she didn't waste any words, her cold eyes filled only with indifference.
With a gentle wave of her long sleeves, the swirling snowflakes instantly transformed into sharp weapons. The snowflakes swept across Shi Nian like blades, carrying a biting chill and an unstoppable force.
Amidst the snowflakes, Shi Nian's body trembled slightly at first, then seemed to be eroded by the passage of time.
The extreme low temperature caused his skin to crack, like weathered rock.
The cracks spread rapidly, and his body gradually lost its vitality.
Faced with the Snow Emperor's immense power, Shi Nian was utterly powerless to resist. As the snowflakes continued to dance in the air, his body eventually withered away like weathering, disappearing without a trace.
It was as if he had never existed in this world, leaving only silence and the still-falling snowflakes, witnessing the unparalleled majesty of the Snow Emperor.
Shi Nian died, but his spirit remains.
It was a round bone, three inches in diameter, that looked like a skull. The skull shimmered with a faint seven-colored light, and its texture was delicate, as if it were carved from a gemstone.
Lin Ye walked over and took it away, then left the scene with Xue Di.
"Sister Yuki-onna, you don't actually need to take action. I can handle him myself."
Xue Di nodded. She knew that Shi Nian couldn't hurt Lin Ye, but she was still worried.
Feeling her concern, Lin Ye felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He didn't say anything more, but silently reached out and took the beautiful woman's hand in his.
Their fingers slowly intertwined, pressed tightly together, conveying each other's warmth and affection.
Xue Di lowered her head slightly, looking at their intertwined fingers, a shy and happy smile appearing in her eyes.
……
The preliminary rounds are over, and all participating colleges will have a month to rest and recuperate. The final rounds will begin in a month.
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.
At the beginning of each month, many Soul Masters go to the Spirit Hall to collect a Soul Master subsidy.
Based on cultivation level, each Soul Master receives 1 Gold Soul Coin per month.
A Grand Soul Master costs 10 Gold Soul Coins.
Soul Master: 100 Gold Soul Coins.
At that moment, Ma Hongjun and Oscar, these two good buddies, happily walked out of the Spirit Temple of Heaven Dou City with their monthly Soul Master allowance.
Ma Hongjun tossed the heavy bag of gold coins in his hand, chuckling, "Finally, today's the day! If the monthly payment hadn't come soon, I'd be eating dirt. Thank goodness for the Spirit Hall's Soul Master subsidy!"
Oscar curled his lip and said, "Anyway, I don't like the Spirit Hall at all. I only think the Spirit Hall is good when I'm receiving the Spirit Master subsidy."
After speaking, Oscar sensed that something was wrong. He looked up and saw the Templar Knights around him staring at him with icy eyes.
Oscar gave an awkward smile and fled as if he were escaping.
After walking away, he regained his previous expression, looked back at the tall Spirit Hall building in the distance, and felt very unhappy.
"Hmph, what's wrong with that? Can't people even say a few words? Isn't it only right to issue Soul Master subsidies? Besides, the subsidies are paid for by the Empire. You're just distributing them on behalf of the Empire. Even without you, the Empire will still pay me."
