Chapter 176 Xxn Internationally Famous Double Standard Of The Same Style!
Leng Xiong's purpose is too strong.
Although his methods are more sophisticated, Chen Yu couldn't help but think of someone.
Or rather... a weirdo!
The monster he encountered in the "Guarding the Village" beginner's instance in River Sun First Middle School.
"Commander Kaste of Tute City Heavy Cavalry."
At that time, Kaste appeared as a friendly reinforcement.
Just as he arrived at the mission site, "Vanguard Village," he found various excuses to target Chen Yu and dismantle the defense of Vanguard Village.
It turned out that Kaste was a two-faced person.
And now, in Chen Yu's eyes, Leng Xiong overlaps with Kaste to some extent.
Why is Leng Xiong doing this?
To make Chen Yu choose him as a mentor.
And then?
Quickly train Chen Yu to become talented? Serve the empire? Conquer the world?
It seems noble and in line with the character setting.
But compared to his recent behavior, there is a strong sense of dissonance.
Furthermore, what is his identity? Just an ordinary mentor.
What is Chen Yu's identity? The top scorer in the history of the college entrance examination ranking competition, and the one who single-handedly killed two Great Demon avatars.
Even if Leng Xiong lacks self-awareness, he should be able to realize that Chen Yu's future achievements are beyond his reach.
No matter how Chen Yu grows, he will eventually become the pillar of the empire.
So, does Chen Yu need him as a mentor? Does his educational approach really mean anything to Chen Yu?
Doesn't he know that his educational approach is dangerous and could lead to accidents?
Compared to the possible accidents, what does the little bit of time he thinks he can save Chen Yu's growth matter?
In this way, the dissonance between Leng Xiong's actions and his character becomes even stronger.
Even if he is essentially a clown who seeks attention and tries to enhance his reputation by taking advantage of Chen Yu, he should not behave like this.
As the saying goes, "When things go against the norm, there must be something unusual."
Let's imagine, what if he doesn't want to cultivate Chen Yu, but wants to harm him?
Suppose Leng Xiong is an assassin sent by another force to infiltrate the Soaring Dragon Empire.
Other forces do not want to see a genius like Chen Yu rise to the Transcendent Level, so they arrange for Leng Xiong to take action and kill Chen Yu.
First, deceive Chen Yu into joining him, and then, relying on his character, arrange for Chen Yu to perform high-value but dangerous tasks.
Over time, as Chen Yu becomes accustomed to the high-risk, high-reward pattern, gradually increase the danger.
Finally, in a seemingly "reasonable" event, leak information, collude with other forces, and eliminate the huge threat of Chen Yu.
If we think along this line, all the dissonance disappears.
Leng Xiong's so-called "military order" is just a cover, as well as a reasonable excuse for frequently assigning dangerous tasks to Chen Yu.
However, these are all Chen Yu's speculations and cannot be concluded rashly.
...
"Chen Yu, please answer my question!"
Leng Xiong shouted forcefully.
The mentors present frowned.
Chen Yu is not a top-tier genius.
What he can think of, naturally others can think of as well.
It's just that due to their status, others dare not be as bold as Chen Yu and directly suspect a tutor from the highest institution of the Soaring Dragon Empire of treason.
The mentors will not be incited by Leng Xiong, but there are quite a few students who are young, talented, and lack social experience who can be incited.
"I think what Tutor Leng Xiong said makes sense. Geniuses like Chen Yu should maintain this invincible and unstoppable momentum."
"Perhaps Leng Xiong is really the most suitable mentor for Chen Yu?"
"Let's see how Chen Yu responds. After all, Leng Xiong has gone this far with his words."
...
"Leng mentor, I have said it before, I refuse," Chen Yu said expressionlessly. "I remember that Soaring Dragon University does not stipulate that mentors have the power to force students to choose them."
When Chen Yu said this, the other mentors in the auditorium laughed.
Especially the mentors who thought Leng Xiong had a problem, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
They were really afraid that Chen Yu couldn't handle the provocation and would choose Leng Xiong as his mentor.
Even if they thought Leng Xiong had a problem, they couldn't do anything without evidence.
Leng Xiong's performance today was somewhat out of place, but being out of place was not a reason to report or accuse.
Soaring Dragon University has means to investigate a person's background, but they will not use it based on baseless speculation.
Some students in the auditorium had thoughts that were exactly opposite to the mentors.
"Is the top scorer really this timid? Hilarious!" A student in front of Leng Xiong's podium sneered. "I thought he was so powerful, is it all just propaganda? Does the empire need to establish a heroic image?"
"Leng mentor has made such a promise, why doesn't he accept it? Is he really afraid of death?"
"He is a prodigy now, who knows how many benefits he has gained. Why risk his life?"
"If you're afraid of death, then be afraid. What does it have to do with me whether others live or die? As long as I have resources, I don't care if you die!"
"..."
"Why are these people speaking so harshly? Have they forgotten who saved them in the ranking competition?" Lu Pingping said indignantly in front of a podium.
"In this world, the majority of people are ultimately brainless, and Soaring Dragon University is no exception," Su Miaoyue sneered and shook her head.
"Yue Yue, this guy surnamed Leng definitely has a problem," Lu Pingping said angrily, "Look at his tricks, it's almost the same as the person who tricked me into buying ritual adhesive bandages!"
"We have to remind Chen Yu!!"
After saying that, Lu Pingping walked towards Chen Yu's direction.
"Wait!" Su Miaoyue quickly grabbed Lu Pingping, "Don't go and cause trouble."
"Don't you think about it? If someone with your brain can see that Leng Xiong has a problem, can't Chen Yu see it? He has already refused, hasn't he?"
"Oh right!" Lu Pingping stopped in her tracks, "Indeed, he must have realized it!"
"Wait a minute! What do you mean by 'someone with your brain'????"
"You know it yourself." Su Miaoyue glanced at Lu Pingping, "Who else could be fooled into bringing two magic ritual items into the exam room?"
"... " Lu Pingping's face immediately fell.
At the same time.
Under another podium.
Li Wei and Min Hongyi were also paying attention to Chen Yu.
"Your brother is in trouble, aren't you going to help?" Min Hongyi excitedly bumped into Li Wei's shoulder, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, "Let's go and confront that Leng Xiong!"
Li Wei calmly folded his arms and said, "Is this considered a problem?"
"Just watch carefully. If Lao Chen doesn't give him a verbal lashing today, my last name is not Min."
...
"Sigh..." Leng Xiong sighed heavily and shook his head, "Chen Yu, you have really disappointed me."
"I really misjudged you."
He turned around, with a desolate expression on his face, and slowly walked away step by step.
In the eyes of those who didn't know the truth, Leng Xiong seemed to be doing his best, full of enthusiasm to cultivate talents for the empire.
And Chen Yu, who rejected Leng Xiong after his impassioned speech, was inevitably labeled as "timid" and "cowardly".
Although, after calming down, these arguments would soon become untenable, but in the public opinion scene, under the watchful eyes of everyone, few people could withstand the pressure.
Not to mention a sixteen or seventeen-year-old teenager, even adults who have long entered society can easily feel frustrated and indignant, wanting to prove their own ideas.
It must be said that Leng Xiong played the game of changing concepts better than a species called "XXN".
But he didn't know that Chen Yu was not influenced by his emotions at all, but rather found it amusing.
In Chen Yu's eyes, Leng Xiong's series of actions could only be described with two words - awkward performance.
