Chapter 142: Meeting the Three Committee Members Again
After traveling for some time, Lu Chen arrived at the Di’ao Province with Xiao Wu and Zhuqing, reaching the main gate of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
Lu Chen had already placed a spatial mark on Xiao Wu and Zhuqing.
As long as Lu Chen wished, he could tear through space at any time and appear by their side.
Therefore, Lu Chen was not worried about them encountering any danger.
Although the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy recruited students of varying quality, with the support of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, it was undoubtedly the top-tier location for Cultivate.
Leveraging the resources of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy could also accelerate the growth speed of Xiao Wu and Zhuqing.
Lu Chen, Xiao Wu, and Zhuqing arrived at the main gate of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy and were immediately stopped by two squads of guards.
Due to the special nature of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family had specially dispatched guards to stand watch, specifically to prevent any petty scoundrels from storming the academy and harming its students.
After being stopped, Lu Chen did not intend to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.
That trope of being looked down upon by others and then exposing one’s identity to slap their faces...
Although it was very satisfying, it was too cliché!
As a dignified Titled Douluo, he couldn’t be bothered to entangle himself too much with these guards, so he directly unleashed his own aura, intending to draw out the three committee members: Committee Member Meng Shenji, Committee Member Bai Baoshan, and Committee Member Zhi Lin!
Boom!
The aura of a Titled Douluo spread out, truly earth-shattering and causing the winds and clouds to change color. The two squads of guards on duty all had their expressions change drastically.
As if facing the monstrous ferocity of a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, those guards trembled all over, their eyes filled with fear, and they all collapsed to the ground, making thumping sounds.
The next moment, inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, three white-haired figures wearing black robes leaped quickly toward the main gate.
These three people were none other than the three committee members of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
They had sensed the aura of a Titled Douluo and immediately dropped what they were doing, rushing toward the source of the aura.
Seeing this, Lu Chen smiled slightly; his goal had been achieved. Saving some meaningless steps, he had drawn out the three committee members of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy in less than a minute.
The three committee members rushed out of the school gate, coordinating tacitly to stand in a triangular formation, surrounding Lu Chen and his companions in the middle.
Committee Member Meng Shenji looked vigilant, his gaze sizing up Lu Chen from top to bottom. He was both surprised by Lu Chen’s youth and suspicious of Lu Chen’s purpose. He spoke in a deep voice:
"Who are you, Your Excellency? What is your purpose in coming to our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy?"
"I believe you, Your Excellency, should understand the significance of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy to the Heaven Dou Empire."
"Even if you are a Titled Douluo, if you want to storm the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, then there will be no place for you in the entire Heaven Dou Empire!"
Lu Chen’s gaze swept over Committee Member Meng Shenji, Committee Member Bai Baoshan, and Committee Member Zhi Lin, and he chuckled:
"Three committee members, long time no see!"
"My name is Lu Chen. It is normal that you don’t recognize me. When I first met you, I gave a fake name, Lan Chen!"
"I have come to the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy without any malicious intent; I simply want to send two friends in to Cultivate!"
"Unleashing my aura was just to draw the three of you out. I apologize for causing some trouble."
Hearing this, the three committee members widened their eyes. They looked at Lu Chen, dumbfounded, and said in unison with disbelief:
"You are Lan Chen?!"
Committee Member Meng Shenji felt his mouth go dry. Past memories surfaced in his mind one after another, giving him the illusion that he was still in a dream.
"Lu Chen! Lan Chen!"
"Three years ago, you were only a level 69 Spirit Emperor. After just three years, how could you possibly become a Titled Douluo?"
"But that aura doesn’t seem fake! Am I still not awake?"
"No..."
Committee Member Meng Shenji slapped his own face. With a loud’slap’, he felt the burning pain on his face and finally confirmed that this was not a dream.
Then, he looked at Lu Chen with a complex expression:
"I don’t care if you are Lu Chen or Lan Chen!"
"Our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy cannot take you in, nor your friends."
"Lu Chen, the fact that you are a Beast-to-Human Transformation has spread across the entire continent. Spirit Hall still has a bounty on you. Now, all forces on the continent—the Upper Three Sects, the Lower Three Sects, and the various great Spirit Master Family—all wish to kill you to obtain your spirit ring and Spirit Bone."
"Even if you have become a Titled Douluo and are no different from a human, those forces that have determined you are a Beast-to-Human Transformation will definitely still come to cause you trouble."
"Lu Chen, let me point you in a clear direction. The Crown Prince has always wanted to recruit you. If you can join under the Crown Prince, with his protection, perhaps you will be able to truly settle down."
"I, Committee Member Bai Baoshan, and Committee Member Zhi Lin, although we hold high positions and are responsible for the daily affairs of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, we cannot make decisions on your matter on our own."
"You should go. Today, we will pretend we never saw you. You can continue to hide your identity. If you change your mind, go find the Crown Prince."
Lu Chen’s expression darkened, not directed at Committee Member Meng Shenji, Committee Member Bai Baoshan, or Committee Member Zhi Lin, but at Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong slandered him as a Beast-to-Human Transformation and put a bounty on him across the entire continent.
The impact this caused him was even greater than he had imagined.
He wanted to send two friends into the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, and the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy was actually unwilling to take them in.
Lu Chen looked at Committee Member Meng Shenji and the others again. These three committee members were not bad; they were even helping him think of a way out.
He did not intend to make things difficult for these three committee members.
It seems that if he wants to roam the continent openly, this slander of being a Beast-to-Human Transformation must be cleared up as soon as possible.
If he were to explain it to everyone one by one, it would be too troublesome. Lu Chen had a better idea.
Immediately, Lu Chen said confidently:
"Three committee members, I am not a Beast-to-Human Transformation. This is a slander against me by Spirit Hall. I also understand your difficulties."
"Since that is the case, I will come to visit again after my identity has been clarified."
After the words fell, Lu Chen stretched out his hands, picked up Xiao Wu and Zhuqing one on each side, and his figure instantly rose into the air, sweeping toward the distant sky.
Committee Member Meng Shenji and the others watched Lu Chen rising into the air and were once again dumbfounded. Lu Chen had indeed broken through to become a Titled Douluo.
If he were not a Titled Douluo, he would definitely not possess the ability to fly.
Xiao Wu, who was held in Lu Chen’s arms, looked at Lu Chen and said worriedly:
"Boss Lu Chen, what do you plan to do now?"
A fierce look rose between Lu Chen’s brows:
"One word: Kill!"
"I will use a battle that shocks the continent to announce my existence to all the forces on the continent!"
"While clarifying my identity, I can also slap Spirit Hall hard in the face. They have been spreading everywhere that I am a Beast-to-Human Transformation, but it turns out I am a dignified human. Spirit Hall, and Bibi Dong, they will definitely lose face."
"In addition, I also want to settle some old scores. I will not let go of a single one of the people who attacked me back then."
"I will wrong you temporarily; go into my Portable Space first. Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo—they have ambushed and killed me before. This time, I will use their blood to wash away the slander against me."
"All grievances will be settled this time!"
After finishing, Lu Chen moved his mind, and the space around him rippled. The moment Xiao Wu and Zhuqing, who were originally held in his arms, came into contact with the spatial ripples, they instantly disappeared from where they were, having been sent into another space.
This was one of the two skills of Lu Chen’s Void Mantis skull.
Portable Space.
Having settled Xiao Wu and Zhuqing, Lu Chen flew toward the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo were already on his must-kill list.
Killing them this time would be killing two birds with one stone.
First, it was to avenge the grudge from back then.
Second, the deaths of Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo would shock the entire continent, and he would be able to clarify his identity in the shortest possible time.
As for Spirit Hall, having spread the word about the Beast-to-Human Transformation for more than a year, only to find out it was a dignified human—Lu Chen felt happy just thinking about how livid Bibi Dong, who issued this bounty, would be.
