Pursuit

"Alice, will you be my girlfriend?"

The calm voice did not explode like thunder, nor did it carry any earth-shaking words. It was as though a man were simply bidding farewell to the woman he loved.

As though they had known each other for years, and everything had fallen into place naturally—a somewhat calm confession.

Yet this simple confession silenced the entire venue, leaving the atmosphere stifling and restless.

Gazes turned one after another toward Lin Feng, and the expressions on their faces were extraordinarily vivid.

"He's gone mad!"

"Haha, this is the Lin Feng I remember."

"This is a barefaced slap to Alfonso's face!"

"Looks like tonight's show will be a good one. This is far more interesting than the banquet!"

"Just over a month ago, Alfonso helped Lin Feng ascend to King. Coming to stir up trouble today is a bit unscrupulous, isn't it?"

"That's ridiculous. Fifteen Kings helped Lin Feng ascend; one more made no difference, one less made no difference. You make it sound as though Lin Feng couldn't have become a King without Alfonso."

"That was a reward Lin Feng exchanged for one thousand points. Besides, Alfonso didn't help for free."

"By your reasoning, Lin Feng is doing this for his own mentor too."

"Love between a man and a woman should be mutual. In my view, Alfonso has already become pathological."

The mentors were in no hurry to leave. Looking down from above at Lin Feng, they chatted with smiles on their faces.

Who could have expected that, before leaving, they would get to witness such a spectacular show?

The mentors knew very well that Alfonso was pursuing Alice with obsessive persistence, and the students had heard rumors as well.

It was simply that no one cared.

Alice was only a Mid-level Spirit King
