Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Chapter 80: Chapter 80: One Man Overawes a City; Those Who Humiliate Others Shall Be Humiliated in Turn

Outside the dungeon gates at that moment, some people who had heard that Shen Fei from Shencheng City was coming to Tang City to break records were quickly gathering to watch the spectacle.

However, public opinion almost universally believed that Shen Fei would inevitably fail, and Xiao Jing would succeed.

But those who had seen Shen Fei perform in the exchange matches didn’t really think Shen Fei would fail, though the problem was Shen Fei was coming to Tang City to make a statement.

After all, no one in all of Tang City had ever completed the ’Cursed Land’ in Hell difficulty.

For someone from Shencheng City to come to Tang City to break a record, wasn’t it just blatantly stepping on the people of Tang City?

”Xiao Jing should be able to clear the Hell Dungeon, right...”

Whu Xiang spoke with anticipation, although he could not stand Xiao Jing either. Xiao Jing, after all, was admitted to Imperial University and was considered a prominent figure in Tang City.

As the only professional, getting into Imperial University was a reflection of personal capability. Don’t let the fact he’s from the Wu Family fool you into thinking his reputation is bad.

Others undoubtedly recognized Xiao Jing more, so Whu Xiang always disliked Xiao Jing.

But Xiao Jing was from Tang City, and Shen Fei was from Shencheng City. Not to mention, Shen Fei actually humiliated him during the exchange matches, making him want his father to avenge him afterward.

Yet his father said not to provoke someone like Shen Fei.

Even sent the butler to deliver gifts to Shen Fei for forgiveness, which was hard for the proud Whu Xiang to accept.

If Shen Fei managed to complete the Cursed Land in Hell difficulty first, it would be a slap to the face of Tang City.

But just as Whu Xiang finished speaking.

A flash of red light appeared across the dungeon gates.

The next moment.

Red light shot into the sky, revealing large words in the air.

[Congratulations to professionals ’Shen Fei’, ’Su Muyu’, for first clearing the Hell difficulty dungeon - Cursed Land! Completion time: 00:15:36!]

[First clear reward, special medal: Curse Heart]

Everyone who had been discussing fell silent, and the entire scene plunged into quiet, yet everyone heard the loud sound of applause.

They seemed to see a young man take the face of the entire Tang City crowd and slam it brutally against their palms.

”Hahaha~”

Fang Yuan laughed breaking the silence on site, his gaze provocatively shifted to Jiang Lan, ”How about it, isn’t my beloved pupil excellent? Fifteen minutes, eh yoh eh yoh, let’s see your ordinary level, almost an hour now.”

”Though your Shimen First High’s performance is indeed a bit disappointing, as Shen Fei noted, surprised Principal Jiang not only can’t nurture talent but also failed to nurture people.”

”Principal Jiang, better focus more on work, otherwise even with all those resources Shimen First High won’t produce very capable people.”

Fang Yuan smiled slightly, both Whu Xiang and Xiao Jing made him extremely uncomfortable, seeing pretty girls like small heads controlling big heads.

Fang Yuan had been a teacher before, did those two seriously think he couldn’t see their burning obsession?

With such behavior while someone has a boyfriend, that’s not getting to know someone—that’s harassment.

Jiang Lan’s face turned ashen upon hearing Fang Yuan’s words, ”Fang Yuan, you’re way too arrogant. The education in Tang City is not something you can dictate...”

As soon as these words fell, the people around who were still astonished began to come back to their senses, looking at Fang Yuan with eyes full of anger.

After all, Shimen First High was their Tang City’s top school, many professionals came from this school.

Shimen First High was like their alma mater.

An alma mater is the kind you can curse freely, but let someone else say one bad word and you glare daggers.

If looks could kill, Fang Yuan would not know how many times he died by now.

But Fang Yuan chuckled, ”If you’re unhappy, you can also go to Shencheng City to set records, and you can try to take back the record.”

His words made the scene even more silent.

They looked at that time record, for goodness’ sake, it was fifteen minutes.

Not to mention Hell difficulty, possibly not even ordinary difficulty could reach that time easily.

And then.

At the dungeon entrance, Shen Fei and Su Muyu emerged, ”Principal, let’s go. Time for a meal, Tang City still has six or seven more dungeons, let’s see if we can finish them in the next couple of days.

Finish and head back.”

”Alright, I heard Tang City’s noodles are quite tasty.”

”Just right, let’s try it.” After clearing the dungeon once, Shen Fei seemed unfazed, even when faced with the murderous stares of those around him, he saw them as if they were air.

Su Muyu, being slightly socially anxious, tugged Shen Fei’s sleeve with her head down.

”Shen Fei, aren’t you afraid Tang City won’t welcome you? What you did went too far.”

”Sorry, I’m part of the Breaking Abyss Army. The army belongs to no city, Tang City surely won’t restrict me.

Actually, you’re the one who provoked me first, saying all students from Shencheng First High are trash, almost ending up kneeling to our Shimen First High...

How is it now, when I turn against you, you can’t take it anymore?”

Shen Fei’s gaze swept around, finally landing on Jiang Lan, ”Principal Jiang, don’t tell me Tang City folks can only win, never lose? If they can’t take even a little backlash, teach your students to watch their mouths less.

I remember your school’s motto, ’Who else but me,’ it’s good to have confidence but being overconfident is unwise.”

Shen Fei’s words left everyone speechless.

People could only watch as Fang Yuan and his group left, and with Shen Fei as the main target gone, naturally, those watching couldn’t just leave.

They were all burning with rage inside needing a vent.

Whu Xiang, having sparked tensions between Shencheng First High and Shimen First High, naturally became the outlet. The Wu Family didn’t have the ability to command all of Tang City, nor could they face off against so many professionals.

”Hey, I do know the contradiction between the two—that’s because Whu Xiang harassed Su Muyu. Shen Fei is Su Muyu’s boyfriend, retaliation is only natural!”

”Don’t say that, whose side are you on? Shen Fei’s anger should’ve been directed at Whu Xiang, hammering us Tang City folks like this is over the top, isn’t it?”

”Didn’t you see? Xiao Jing is the same kind of person, immediately showing affection to Su Muyu upon appearance, Anyone who knew about the exchange matches knows Su Muyu and Shen Fei were a couple.

Xiao Jing has talent, but not good character.”

”Put yourself in the shoes of having several students from Shencheng First High harass your girlfriend, Would you think it’s those few individuals or Shencheng First High at fault?”

”Of course, it’s Shencheng First High that’s at fault! What a ridiculous institution... on second thought, maybe that went a bit too far.”

”That’s changing your tune, huh.”

...

People all around were discussing, some knew what had happened during the exchange matches, especially the conflict, As revealed by a certain anonymous Liang from Lu City First High.

Whu Xiang had once harassed Su Muyu, which was what started the conflict between the two.

The previously quiet scene erupted into chaos again, and just then, five figures suddenly appeared at the dungeon entrance, at the forefront was Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing looked serious as he walked out of the dungeon and turned to Jiang Lan, ”Principal, I’m confident. Let me try again, I should attempt the first clear, won’t be slower than Shen Fei.”

But as soon as he spoke, he noticed everyone around him had a strange look, smirking expressions.

It was as if they couldn’t hold it in but there happened to be no restroom in sight.

”What happened?”

”Take a look at the record board first.” Jiang Lan said helplessly, the hope was gone now, Xiao Jing hadn’t even managed to clear the Hell difficulty of Cursed Land in one try.

Instead, Shen Fei had done it, and faster than even the time it took Xiao Jing to fail.
