Invincible through Touching Corpses

Chapter 442: Chapter 440: The End of the Disturbance

Soon, Lin Xinghai and the others arrived at the administration building.

It was worth noting that because the second-year students were hostile, the task of leading the way fell entirely to Little Fatty, who had clearly done his homework on the matter.

When they reached the administration building, they found that this place, too, was being guarded by quite a few second-year students.

However, upon seeing Lin Xinghai’s group, many of them looked as though they were facing a formidable enemy.

Lin Xinghai paid no mind to what they were thinking. He simply led his group up the steps and into the administration building.

During this process, many of them seemed restless, as if they wanted to step in and stop them. But when they saw the firearm in Lin Xinghai’s hand, they didn’t dare make a peep.

It couldn’t be helped. News of what happened at the academy entrance had already reached them, and they were all perfectly aware of what Lin Xinghai had done.

With Lin Xinghai holding a firearm, no one really dared to go and pick a fight to the death with them.

The new student registration desk was located in the first-floor lobby of the administration building.

However, it wasn’t students handling the registration, but instructors.

Lin Xinghai led his group over, took out their student cards, and handed them over respectfully. "Instructor, we’re here to register."

The instructor in charge, Lin Xiangming, gave Lin Xinghai a deep look before taking their student cards and logging into the system to process them.

"All done." Lin Xiangming handed the student cards back to Lin Xinghai and the others, speaking at the same time. "To have secured a spot as a Special Class Student, I’m sure your talent and strength are quite impressive. But I hope you won’t just be a bully who only preys on his own kind in the future."

His words were clearly meant as a warning. Had it been any other student, they probably wouldn’t have said anything back. However, that wasn’t Lin Xinghai’s personality.

"Instructor, I’m afraid I can’t agree with you on that."

"If another instructor, someone stronger than you, came to exploit you for your Credit Points—say, my personal mentor, Zuo Wenyao—would you fight back? Or would you just hand them over?"

"If I, Lin Xinghai, need Credit Points, I’ll earn them myself. I won’t wait until next year to target underclassmen who are weaker than me. *That* is what it truly means to prey on your own kind."

After speaking, Lin Xinghai turned and left, completely ignoring Lin Xiangming, whose face had turned somewhat red.

Among the students injured at the academy entrance were some of Lin Xiangming’s own. He was rather furious when he learned that Lin Xinghai had directly used a firearm to spray them with bullets.

It was precisely for this reason that he had planned to rebuke him verbally.

But he never expected to be refuted so directly. What infuriated him even more was that the other party’s words were completely reasonable. Coupled with the fact that Zuo Wenyao was backing him, Lin Xiangming was suddenly at a loss for words.

And it wasn’t just Lin Xiangming; the faces of all the second-year students in the administration building turned quite ugly, because Lin Xinghai’s words had insulted them as well.

Lin Xinghai couldn’t care less what they thought. He directly led Little Fatty and the others out of the administration building.

Watching the backs of Lin Xinghai’s group as they departed, everyone felt a mixture of anger and a faint premonition that things at East Sea Academy might be about to change.

Just then, behind a window on the second floor of the administration building, two young men quietly watched Lin Xinghai’s group leave.

If any second-year students had seen these two, they would have recognized them at a glance. They were the Special Class Students of the second-year cohort.

"This underclassman is really arrogant! Fang Wenbin, are you sure you’re not going to make a move? Among us Special Class Students, your Gun Technique is the best. Aren’t you tempted to compete with him?" said Song Yulong, who was standing on the left.

"I just used my Communication Wristwatch to ask a few of the witnesses for details. When he opened fire, he used spray mode the entire time. I can’t achieve precise shots while using spray mode," Fang Wenbin said.

Song Yulong could, of course, read between the lines. In other words, in a firefight, Fang Wenbin wouldn’t dare use spray mode and would definitely be suppressed by the other party’s firepower.

"So we’re just going to let this go?" Song Yulong asked after a brief moment of silence.

"Of course not. Among the students he injured, two of them usually go on missions with me."

"The rules on whether firearms can be used during a spar are quite vague. While it doesn’t say they can’t be used, there’s no explicit rule saying they can. We can use this to make an issue of it," Fang Wenbin said.

"But you should also be aware that when Instructor Jian Hua questioned him, he clearly stated that he had Instructor Zuo Wenyao’s permission. With a Divine Demon Realm expert backing him, it’s useless even if we appeal to the academy!" Song Yulong said with a frown.

"It’s useless for *us* to appeal, of course. But Lin Xinghai isn’t the only one with a personal mentor from the Divine Demon Realm," Fang Wenbin said with a smile.

Hearing this, a flash of envy and jealousy crossed Song Yulong’s eyes.

A personal mentor from the Divine Demon Realm was not something just anyone could have. Even for Special Class Students like them, they were nothing special in the eyes of a Divine Demon Realm expert.

Unless one was exceptionally outstanding or had some specific trait that caught the eye of a Divine Demon Realm expert, the expert might offer some guidance, but taking them on as a personal student was a rare occurrence.

...

Of course, Lin Xinghai had no idea that his use of a firearm would cause further trouble. Not that he would have cared even if he knew. Matters concerning the academy’s upper management were beyond his reach; those were for Zuo Wenyao to handle.

At this moment, he and the others had arrived at the dormitory building.

This was their final stop. Here, they encountered no obstructions. After registering with their student cards, they waited for the academy to assign them their dorm rooms.

The difference in treatment between Special Class Students and other students was reflected in every aspect, and housing conditions were one of them.

Special Class Students lived in single rooms, while First Class Students lived in double rooms, Second Class Students in four-person rooms, and the lowest-ranked Third Class Students in eight-person rooms.

This disparity in treatment was also a method used to encourage competition among the students.

"These are the keys for the Special Class Students’ rooms. Pick whichever room you want!" After the registration was complete, the dormitory matron quickly produced a box of keys and presented it to the group.

"Why is there a golden key here?" Lin Xinghai asked in surprise, picking up the key that looked different from the rest.

"That’s the key to Dorm Room 1. Boss, you should take it; it’s a well-deserved honor. The other single rooms are generally only 50 square meters, but Dorm Room 1 is a full 100 square meters."

"According to past years, the Special Class Students would always fight over the right to live in this room. But I don’t think anyone here will have any objections, right?" Little Fatty said, looking at the others with a beaming smile.

Yan Feijie and the others could only manage a bitter smile. They truly didn’t have the ability to compete for it right now.

After a brief moment of surprise, Lin Xinghai couldn’t help but laugh in amusement. "The academy really goes out of its way to create a competitive atmosphere among the students!"

"Yeah! That’s why the academy’s martial arts arenas are packed almost every day." Little Fatty couldn’t help but smack his lips. If he hadn’t latched onto Lin Xinghai’s coattails, he would have had a tough time at this academy too.
