Ling Yi's home is located at the easternmost part of Dafeng City, close to the eastern city wall and the eastern city gate.
It's an old, ordinary residential area.
However, Dafeng City No. 1 Middle School is located at the westernmost part of Dafeng City, and Ling Yi has to cross the entire Dafeng City every time he goes to and from school.
Taking the bus takes at least half an hour.
It's almost from the starting station to the terminal station.
However, Ling Yi did not get off at the final stop today, but instead got off two stops earlier at Park Road.
Along with Ling Yi, two young men wearing masks and baseball caps also got off the bus.
One of them was thin and small, while the other was tall and strong.
The two of them had been following him ever since Ling Yi left school and got into the car.
Without a doubt, these two people came for me.
The reason I got off at Park Road was because there's a grove of trees there, and it's in a rather secluded location.
It's around 5 p. m. now, and the sun is still high in the sky.
The sky Wuyun and the lighting was excellent.
Before entering the woods, Ling Yi quietly turned on the video recording function on his phone and then put the phone in his shirt pocket, leaving only the camera lens exposed.
After entering the woods, Ling Yi turned around and waited quietly for the two to appear.
"Kid, you're quite vigilant. Looks like we've been exposed all along," said the muscular young man who was the first to walk in.
"Heh, judging from this kid's appearance, he probably lured us here on purpose. Could it be that he thinks we're just ordinary people?" the Xiao Qing came in later said jokingly.
"There are no security cameras here, and no law enforcement officers around. Kid, you've picked a good spot."
"Are you professionals?" Ling Yi Ling Yi, feigning fear and taking a few steps back.
"You professionals dare to attack students who haven't awakened yet? Aren't you afraid of the law enforcement?" Ling Yi shouted, his voice trembling.
"You only have yourself to blame. If you had gotten off at the final stop, it would have been more troublesome for us. We probably wouldn't have been able to make a move until late at night. But you insisted on getting off here."
"I guess this kid thinks he's a good fighter, so he lured us into these woods, right?"
"Haha, what do you call this? This is called 'being caught in one's own trap.'"
It's also called "lifting Shitou to drop it on one's own foot."
The two of them, singing in unison, perfectly embodied the word "arrogant."
"That bastard Wu Ming actually Hire Martial Practitioner to kill me. I only beat him up a few times." Ling Yi's voice was trembling with tears.
Ling Yi's performance, however, greatly pleased the two of them; this was exactly how the weak should behave!
"Hmph, you're just an ant, how dare you offend Young Master Wu? You simply don't know the meaning of death!" the burly young man said coldly.
" Old Gao, you talk too much," the Xiao Qing said, frowning.
"What's there to be afraid of? This kid's going to be dead soon anyway."
"Kid, do you know that even Young Master Wu's father wouldn't lay a Young Master on him, yet he got beaten up several times by trash like you?"
"It's not just Young Master Wu who wants your life; Chairman Wu wants your life too. Otherwise, Young Master Wu alone couldn't mobilize two third-tier professionals like us."
A third job advancement? Although it was beyond my expectations, it was still within my control.
Originally, I only wanted to lure out Wu Ming, but I didn't expect to lure out his Old Man as well. Not bad, not bad. If I could send Wu Ming's Old Man in too, that would be even more perfect.
Of course, Ling Yi knew that this was highly unlikely.
Wu Ming's Old Man is the branch president of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce in Dafeng City.
They wield immense power; even the mayor of Dafeng City wouldn't dare offend them easily.
The Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce is one of the Great Shang in the Great Qian Empire. Nearly 20% of the Great Qian Empire's resources are circulated to various parts of the Great Qian Empire through the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce.
This clearly demonstrates their strength.
Even if he has video evidence, if he hands it over through normal means, the final outcome is really hard to say.
Therefore, Ling Yi decided to take an unorthodox approach and prepare backup plans.
Perhaps, by then, many people will hate themselves!
"Could you tell me your names?" Ling Yi asked. "Even if I die, at least I'll know who killed me, right?"
"Alright, I'll grant your wish. Remember, the people who killed you were Gao Ming and Lin Chengjiang..." the burly young man said, taking off his mask.
"Shut up!" the Xiao Qing named Gao Ming shouted.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
" Old Gao, why are you shouting so loudly?" Lin Chengjiang, a burly young man, frowned.
"Idiot, he should be recording." Gao Ming pointed to the phone in Ling Yi's shirt pocket.
Upon hearing this, Ling Yi turned and ran.
During the escape, he seemed to be too nervous and fell to the ground, his phone camera being pressed down by his body.
"Haha, you think you can escape?" Lin Chengjiang couldn't help but laugh loudly when he saw Ling Yi fall.
However, at that moment, Ling Yi, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly bent over and stood up.
Then he turned around, stomped his feet hard on the ground, kicking up a large cloud of dirt.
Ling Yi's figure moved like a cheetah, leaving Daodao as he arrived in front of the two in the blink of an eye.
Ling Yi was too fast; the two of them didn't even have time to react before they were each hit by a punch.
Simultaneously, their bones collapsed, and blood gushed out.
If Ling Yi were Awakened at this moment, he would see that the numbers "-4900" and "-4700" are rising above the heads of the two people respectively.
Then, the health bars above their heads were completely emptied.
Instant Kill.
The two figures flew backward, their equipment, potions, scrolls, and other items scattering all over the ground.
This is Legend getting loot.
The two men crashed into two trees, snapping them in half before finally coming to a stop.
Ling Yi's eyes were full of disdain and Taunt, and he thought to himself, "Fool."
But he shouted, "Thank you so much for saving my life, senior! May I ask your name?"
Naturally, no one responded to Ling Yi; Ling Yi had simply staged his own performance.
After pausing for another half minute, Ling Yi walked to the spot where he had been lying and picked up the phone.
He murmured to himself, "I wonder who this senior is. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay the life-saving grace I received today."
" Wu Zhiping, Wu Ming, you bastards! Do you think having power and money gives you the right to kill us students at will?"
Is there really any fairness left in this world?
After reciting the lines he had prepared beforehand, Ling Yi ended the recording with a playful smile.
As for the items that Gao Ming and Lin Chengjiang destroyed, Ling Yi didn't touch any of them.
After taking a long detour, I turned and headed home.
The next morning at eight o'clock, Ling Yi took a bus and arrived at the Awakening Hall early.
Professional awakening doesn't happen in schools, but in the temple of awakening.
The Awakening Hall is located in the central area of Dafeng City, and is a separate area.
The Awakening Hall, from a distance, looks like an ancient pagoda. The pagoda has only two stories, with the first story being 100 meters high and the area comparable to a football stadium.
The second floor is only five meters high, but its area is less than a hundred square meters.
I don't know why the building has this structure.
However, it seems no one has ever heard of going to the second floor, nor does anyone know what the second floor is used for.
When Ling Yi arrived at the Awakening Hall, it had already been surrounded by law enforcement officers.
No one except for these students and teachers who meet the conditions for awakening can enter the Hall of Awakened.
The area outside was filled with parents of test-takers, standing on both sides of the road, some whispering to each other, others craning their necks in anticipation.
But no one dared to make a sound.
After showing his student ID, Ling Yi entered the main hall without any problems.
Ling Yi quickly found the location of No. 1 Middle School.
The schools participating in the awakening are not limited to Dafeng City No. 1 Middle School.
There are a total of twelve middle schools in Dafeng City, with about a thousand students from each school participating in the awakening, totaling more than 12,000 students.
The interior of the Awakened Hall is like a stadium.
The surrounding area was filled with students from various schools.
In the middle area is a circular platform, and on the platform stands a translucent, beautiful woman who seems to be made of light.
This is what's known as the Goddess of Luck, or the Awakened NPC.
Ling Yi stood at the very back of the No. 1 Middle School area, his gaze sweeping over this Goddess of Luck.
However, he made a judgment in his heart.
It looks amazing with its special effects and is very pretty, but the headlights are a bit small, bad review. The cleavage isn't perky enough either, bad review. And since it's wearing a long skirt, you can't even see its legs, which is even worse.
But just then, Goddess of Luck stirred and looked in Ling Yi's direction.
Is this woman looking at me?
The moment Ling Yi had this thought, he felt a warm current surge through his body. His muscles, bones, and internal organs all seemed to be elevated at that moment, making Ling Yi almost cry out in pleasure.
Ling Yi felt as if he were about to Ascension at this moment.
But Ling Yi quickly came to his senses.
Holy crap, is this woman really looking at me? Could she be Mind-Reading Technique?
But at this moment, Ling Yi was not afraid at all; instead, his eyes became even brighter.
Controlling his own mind, he continued to think to himself: I don't even know what talent or profession I will awaken. Damn it, either I awaken the strongest talent, or I don't have to awaken Laozi.
The worst is when it's neither high nor low.
Ling Yi kept repeating these words in his mind, and every now and then he would complain about Goddess of Luck.
During this process, Ling Yi felt two more streams of energy appear within his body.
In other words, Goddess of Luck has broken through her defenses twice more.
Ling Yi didn't know was that while this Goddess of Luck could indeed hear other people's thoughts, she couldn't hear just any thoughts.
She can only hear someone's heart when they are thinking of her.
Most people either praised her or prayed that she would awaken her great talent, but only that bastard Ling Yi actually said that her breasts were too small and her crotch wasn't perky enough.
That bastard, is the light too small for me? It's just the right size, not too big, not too small, that's perfect! Stop it, you little ant!
Eight cleavages not perky enough? I'm not one of those little witches from the Demon Realm.
This ant dares to want to see its own legs, how despicable!
"Hmph, either your strongest talent or a failed awakening? You think you can get away with this after offending me? Absolutely not."
"Let me see what this ant's talent is like."
