Chapter 175 I’M Just Embarrassed To Say That You Are Worse Than A Dog!
"Leng Xiong, you really think highly of yourself."
A mentor sneered on the spot, "What level are you at? Don't you know yourself?"
Many mentors at Soaring Dragon University had grievances against Leng Xiong, just like Chen Yu. They couldn't stand Leng Xiong's teaching attitude of doing whatever it takes to achieve his goals, regardless of the safety of the students.
Normally, Leng Xiong kept a low profile and had little interaction with other mentors, so there were no conflicts. But at this moment, with just one sentence, he stepped on the toes of all the mentors, naturally causing some people to be unhappy.
"Only you are the most suitable, then what are we?" Does it mean that our teaching level is inferior to yours?
"I dare to say this because I have my reasons!" Leng Xiong's gaze swept across the entire auditorium like an eagle.
"I can guarantee that as long as Chen Yu chooses me as his mentor, within one year, he will definitely be promoted to Rank Two!"
"Within three years, he will definitely be promoted to Rank Four!"
"Within five years, he will definitely be promoted to Rank Five!"
"And, at each stage, he will maintain the highest combat power among his peers at Soaring Dragon University!"
"I, Leng Xiong, dare to make this pledge!"
"If I fail to achieve this goal, I will give all my wealth to Chen Yu, and then take my own life on the spot!"
"Do you dare?"
"Wow—"
There was an immediate uproar in the auditorium.
"Oh my, is this Mentor Leng Xiong? He's so bold!"
"Is it possible to reach Rank Two within a year? Most people are still hovering as beginners in their first year, taking half a year to reach Level 50 and complete their class transfer quests."
"We have many geniuses at Soaring Dragon University who reach Rank Two within a year, but it's simply impossible to reach Rank Four within three years! Not to mention reaching Rank Five within five years, it's faster than leveling up with a rocket!"
"Forget about leveling up, it takes a while just to complete the class transfer quests!"
"It's already impressive to level up quickly, but to also maintain the highest combat power among peers, that's a bit exaggerated."
"That's the easiest part, right? Who doesn't know that Chen Yu has an Elemental Elf as support? With that kind of existence, anyone can achieve the highest combat power among their peers!"
"He's too desperate. By making this oath, isn't he putting his life in someone else's hands?"
"Are you listening to his nonsense? It's already 8020, and there are still people who believe in this kind of pure bluffing?"
"But you have to admit, his boldness is really strong! Among the mentors present, only he dares to say such things."
"This is called boldness? Are you sure it's not a clown trying to please the crowd?"
The students were discussing among themselves, but the mentors remained silent with serious expressions.
Indeed, none of them could make the same guarantee as Leng Xiong.
Seeing all the mentors present speechless, Leng Xiong smiled and looked at Chen Yu again, "Chen Yu, what do you think?"
"I'm sorry, Mentor Leng, I refuse." Chen Yu refused without hesitation.
No matter how determined Leng Xiong was in saying those words, they had no appeal to Chen Yu.
To put it bluntly, even if he found a dog as his mentor, he would level up much faster than what Leng Xiong guaranteed.
Not to mention, he had only transferred classes two months ago and was already Level 70.
As long as he found a wilderness area and caused some chaos, he would immediately reach Level 100 and receive the second class transfer quest.
"What are you worried about?" Leng Xiong suddenly frowned, his voice rising three notches.
"I have already said it to this extent, do you really think there will be someone else who is willing to give their all for you like I am?"
"I understand the goodwill of the mentor, but I already have my own ideas, so there's no need!" Chen Yu bypassed Leng Xiong and walked forward.
After all, he was a mentor at Soaring Dragon University, so he couldn't openly say things like "you're worse than a dog, only holding me back."
"What you're worried about, is it the casualty rate of my students?" Leng Xiong once again stood in front of Chen Yu and said.
"That's right," Chen Yu said impatiently, "so please step aside, mentor."
"I thought the last thing you should be worried about is this issue," Leng Xiong sighed and shook his head.
"In the college entrance exam ranking competition, you single-handedly fought against two Great Demon avatars, saving countless examinees. You are a hero of the Soaring Dragon Empire."
"Now, do you not even have the courage for this?"
"Or has the identity of being the top scorer in the college entrance exam made you lose your original spirit?!"
"Let me tell you! Professionals should be brave and fearless! Forge ahead! Fight against fate!"
"Do you know why I invited you? It's not because of your talent! It's because you dared to confront the demon avatars head-on!"
"Do you think you were able to grow worry-free, change professions, and participate in the college entrance exam, standing here as the top scorer?"
It's because there were countless warriors blocking deadly threats in places you couldn't see!"
"They used their lives to protect you! To protect the peace of this world!"
"Are you willing to enjoy the sacrifices of others, enjoy the resources of the empire, and not face any danger?"
"If you are still the person you were before! Then accept my invitation! Become my student!"
"I will train you into a true warrior!"
"Agree or refuse? Show me your character! Let me see if you have become a coward!"
"Do you dare?"
Leng Xiong's impassioned speech once again stirred up the hall.
This time, surprisingly, a part of the people agreed with Leng Xiong's viewpoint.
Because most of what Leng Xiong said was true.
They were influenced by Leng Xiong's emotions and awakened their obedience and awe for professionals who fought on the front lines.
However, Chen Yu frowned.
"There's something wrong with this person!"
As a mentor, it was unreasonable for him to continue to pester Chen Yu after he clearly refused.
If the first two times were due to Leng Xiong's personality and his genuine belief in Chen Yu, then the third time was a bit excessive.
Using Chen Yu's impatient refusal as a basis, he made an impassioned speech.
Each sentence seemed to express the passion in his heart, but he repeatedly changed the subject.
He directly equated Chen Yu's rejection of him with being timid and cowardly.
In the process, he incited the emotions of the crowd in the name of frontline warriors.
For Chen Yu himself, he first elevated his achievement of single-handedly defeating two Great Demon avatars, and then used the argument of "fear of high casualty rates among his students" to belittle him.
Pulling and pushing, and finally using strong emotions as a pressure to force Chen Yu to comply.
If it were any other talented youth, full of pride and hot-bloodedness, they might have fallen for it.
But Chen Yu was not a hot-blooded youth.
His emotions were not swayed in the slightest, and he was even analyzing the other party's behavior.
"From the first invitation, to criticizing all the mentors present, to finally manipulating the emotions of the entire audience and changing the subject to provoke me."
"The methods are too skillful."
"Leng Xiong's character is that of a stern and serious mentor who doesn't like to communicate with others and is cold to his students, but is very dedicated to cultivating combat talents for the empire."
"Such a person is an absolute pragmatist, so how does he have such skillful emotional manipulation techniques?"
