The Secret, Powerful Hall Master

"Captain Lin, why didn't you introduce the other three great famous schools, and my alma mater, Jiangnan Martial School?"

Xiao Li asked while driving.

She had already sent Shi Yan and the principal of Baiyun No. 1 High School back, and now it was just her and Lin Ye, so she dared to ask.

It didn't feel like Lin Ye was explaining the four great famous schools to Shi Yan, but more like he was introducing Modu Martial School to Shi Yan.

Also, Jiangnan Martial School was quite good, not as good as the four great famous schools, but it consistently ranked in the top ten nationally.

Given Shi Yan's performance, he would receive abundant resources at any school, not necessarily less than at Modu Martial School.

"Is it because you also graduated from Modu Martial School?"

Lin Ye also graduated from Modu Martial School, and she felt that was part of the reason.

"Xiao Li, you're talking too much."

Lin Ye pretended to be serious, which made the girl's face change slightly.

However, a few seconds later, he began to explain to the recently graduated girl.

"Honestly, Lingnan Martial School and Modu Martial School are the most suitable for Shi Yan. The reason I strongly recommended Modu Martial School is because Po is at Modu."

"Ah! So the Hall Master of Extreme Martial Arts Hall is there!"

Upon hearing the name Po, Xiao Li's eyes lit up, her face filled with fervor.

"Huh? Captain Lin, isn't Po staking out that Demon Emperor at Furong Peak in Japan?"

"Staking out? Not at all, a part of his body has already become a weapon."

Lin Ye said, his eyes also showing a look of longing.

Warriors, especially Martial Kings and those above, most feared acting across national borders.

But Po dared to do it alone, and he even made it so that no one in Japan dared to utter a word, even ordering the citizens not to spread any news.

One person suppressing an entire country, it was enough to make one's blood boil just thinking about it.

"You mean Shi Yan..."

"Be careful with your words, don't say it."

Bigui Residential Area.

Gu Guoping and his wife Zhang Shufen paced back and forth in front of the main gate, glancing at the end of the road from time to time.

"Oh, you're killing me, Gu Guoping! Can't you just call the teachers at the school? It's been an hour since the College Entrance Examination ended."

Zhang Shufen complained when she saw Gu Guoping pacing back and forth as well.

Nearing forty, she was well-maintained, her appearance like that of a thirty-year-old, a mature and beautiful woman.

However, the moment she spoke, that beauty was ruined.

"I know you're anxious, but can you not be anxious first?"

Gu Guoping stopped, somewhat annoyed.

Zhang Shufen was anxious about one person, but he was anxious about two.

"Don't be anxious? Aren't you anxious about Xiao Feng's College Entrance Examination?"

Hearing the word "anxious," Zhang Shufen became even more anxious, losing some of her reason.

"Also, Gu Guoping, if Xiao Feng doesn't do well this time, I will absolutely not forgive you! The child was preparing well for the exam, and you, out of your mind, asked him to help your precious nephew."

"Zhang Shufen, that's enough. Don't you also benefit if Xiao Yan does well?"

Gu Guoping had a splitting headache. He knew he shouldn't have mentioned looking for his son.

"Forget it, forget it. Help him however you want, so you don't say I'm being unreasonable."

Thinking about the street leaders who had visited their home to offer condolences, Zhang Shufen stopped nagging Gu Guoping.

If Shi Yan was lucky and killed a few demonic beasts, he would still get some points.

As long as he had points, he could get into a Martial Arts College.

A Martial Arts Vocational College was also a college.

Two warriors from the same family, both attending college, would give her some face.

Just as she was thinking this, a heavy-looking bus stopped at the end of the road.

The door opened, and a young man with a face full of confidence and joy stepped out.

It was Gu Feng, returning home after the College Entrance Examination.

"Xiao Feng!"

Zhang Shufen shouted in surprise, waving enthusiastically at Gu Feng.

Gu Guoping's heart skipped a beat.

Only one person returned!?

Thinking about the news he had seen online, that every year some examinees were killed by demonic beasts during the College Entrance Examination, Gu Guoping's vision suddenly went black, and the world spun.

"Hey, hey, hey, Old Gu, what's wrong?"

Zhang Shufen, without even greeting her son, quickly went to support Gu Guoping.

"Don't scare me, what's wrong?"

A gust of wind swept by, and Gu Feng quickly appeared on Gu Guoping's other side.

"Dad, I'll take you to the hospital."

Seeing Gu Guoping's pale face, Gu Feng was about to carry him.

However, Gu Guoping pushed him away.

"Where's your cousin?"

"Cousin? He's gone."

"Gone…"

Gu Guoping stumbled, nearly falling to the ground.

Fortunately, Gu Feng reacted quickly and understood what Gu Guoping meant.

He firmly supported his father and quickly explained, "Dad, cousin was picked up by the Monster Suppression Bureau. He's fine."

Hearing this, Gu Guoping froze for a moment, then took a deep breath and exhaled forcefully.

The despair in his eyes turned into hope: "He's not dead, it's good he's not dead! He can burn soft iron cans, how could anything happen to him? I was overthinking."

"Burn soft iron cans? Pfft, Dad, Mom, let's go home first, and I'll explain everything properly."

"You scoundrel! Gu Feng, are you looking for a beating? Your cousin was arrested, and you can still laugh!"

Gu Guoping's face turned stern, and he reprimanded him severely.

Being taken away by the Monster Suppression Bureau, Shi Yan had likely committed some offense.

As relatives, they absolutely could not mock him!

"Dad, it's not what you think. Let's talk when we get back."

Gu Feng was helpless and had to reluctantly suppress his smile.

Zhang Shufen also pulled Gu Guoping to walk back, insisting on measuring his blood pressure.

Not long after, the three returned home and gathered together.

Gu Guoping looked anxious and asked again, "Hurry up and tell me, what happened to your cousin?"

"It's nothing, really. My cousin just got the top score, and the principal and people from the Monster Suppression Bureau invited him for a chat."

Gu Feng said with feigned nonchalance.

Gu Guoping suddenly stood up, finding it hard to believe his ears.

"What did you say, top score?"

"Xiao Feng, are you tired from the exam?"

Zhang Shufen reached out to touch Gu Feng's forehead, thinking her son was talking nonsense.

D-Class Biological Ignite and being the top scorer—the two things didn't seem to connect at all.

"Dad, Mom, what I said is absolutely true. Our cousin is the top scorer in this year's College Entrance Examination. If you don't believe me, you can check online in a couple of days. The news should report it too."

Gu Feng said with a smile, finding his parents' shocked expressions amusing.

"Maybe we don't have to wait a couple of days. Leaders from Baiyun City might visit us today, after all, we're his only remaining relatives."

"Xiao Feng, Dad believes you, but the top scorer you mentioned, is that Shi Yan I asked you to help?"

Gu Guoping's hands trembled slightly. His son rarely spoke nonsense, especially about important matters.

But Shi Yan getting the top score was as fantastical as him becoming the richest man in the country.

"Dad, to be honest, it wasn't me who helped cousin, but cousin who helped me."

Then, Gu Feng recounted what happened at the examination hall.

The story was so bizarre that it left the other two frozen in their chairs, unmoving for a long time.

"Top scorer, personally received by leaders from the Municipal Monster Suppression Bureau… Son, I've only said a few good things about your cousin over the years. Am I, your mother, doomed?"

Zhang Shufen asked cautiously.

The power and inviolability of Warriors had long been deeply ingrained in people's minds. She felt like she had caused a huge disaster.

"Mom, what are you thinking? Is cousin that kind of person?"

Gu Feng was speechless. He knew his mother well.

She just had a bit of a sharp tongue. Otherwise, he and Shi Yan wouldn't have handed over the financial control to their dad after starting high school.

High school was the period for awakening supernatural abilities, and physical fitness had to keep up.

Every time his dad bought a lot of things to improve their physique for the two cousins, his mom would always nag.

But for three years, it hadn't stopped them.

And her income had always been deposited onto that card.

But that wasn't important; what mattered was that his cousin Shi Yan also knew his mother's personality and character.

Moreover, Shi Yan had spoken highly of his mother in the examination hall.

He said that with his father's personality, if it weren't for his mother's temper to balance things out, their family's money would probably have been lent to many others.

Gu Feng deeply agreed.

There were too many examples these days of people lending money and creating enemies.

He was just a little confused as to why his cousin, who was only a few months older than him, seemed so mature.

"I hope so. Xiao Feng, you mentioned earlier that Shi Yan had collaborated with a girl. Tell me about her, Mom."

"Your dad wants to know too."
