Reincarnated as a Mosquito, the School Beauty I Sucked to Tears is a Reborn Empress

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Bigshots and Leaders from All Sides Frantically Give Gifts! The Point of Showing Potential

“I know you’re proud and arrogant.”

The Chairman looked at her with a complicated expression. “But you must understand, she is no longer someone we can afford to provoke! If you don’t bow your head today, then in the future, once she has grown powerful, the entire Jingzhe Guild could be destroyed because of you!”

Leng Yan clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging so deep into her palms that blood dripped from between her fingers, yet she didn’t seem to notice.

Silence. A long silence.

Finally, without a word, she spun around, walked off the platform without a backward glance, and disappeared into the distance.

In the end, she couldn’t bring herself to lower her proud head.

“Sigh…” The Guild Chairman watched her resolute back, his heart filled with helplessness.

Just then, the atmosphere in the square suddenly changed again.

On the platform, the group of leaders, headed by Zhang Chengye, Lin Zhennan, and Chairman Wang, after a brief discussion, unexpectedly rose to their feet in unison.

Then, under the dumbfounded gazes of several thousand students, they formed a line and walked with solemn steps toward Gu Yuexi.

They didn’t look like leaders on an inspection tour. Instead, they looked like… they were going to pay their respects to a leader?

It was like the world had been turned upside down!

“Gu!”

Zhang Chengye was the first to walk up to Gu Yuexi, his face wreathed in an affable smile. From his Storage Ring, he took out an elixir that emanated a rich life aura.

“This is a Sixth-Grade ’Creation Pill’ from my private collection! It’s a sacred healing medicine! Consider it a greeting gift from me, your elder! I hope you won’t find it wanting!”

Before Gu Yuexi could even react, Lin Zhennan also pushed his way forward, handing over a short sword shimmering with iridescent light.

“Gu! This is a Profound Tier Middle-Grade Spiritual Artifact, ’Purple Lightning and Cyan Frost,’ that I acquired in my early years! Although it’s only an auxiliary Spiritual Artifact, it can greatly increase the recovery speed of your Mental Power! Your Spiritual Cultivation is high, so this is perfect for you!”

“Gu! This is a small token from our Spiritual Mind Master Association! The Earth-tier Lower-Grade Spiritual Secret Technique, ’Thousand Soul Stab’! Please, you must accept it!” Chairman Wang was even more generous, directly taking out a prized cultivation technique.

Immediately after, the principal, the dean of students, and representatives from various other factions all surged forward, scrambling over one another to present their gifts, their faces plastered with sycophantic smiles.

Gu Yuexi: “…”

’These people are shamelessly pragmatic.’

’This Emperor truly scorns to associate with such people…’

“BUZZ BUZZ! (Take them! What are you doing just standing there like an idiot? Didn’t we show off our potential for this very reason? Resources! These are all resources!! It’d be a waste not to take them!)”

“…You have a point.”

…

And so, the spectacular combat assessment concluded in this incredibly surreal atmosphere.

Gu Yuexi was surrounded by a crowd of bigwigs, accepting so many gifts that her hands grew tired.

Meanwhile, Chu Sheng rested on her shoulder, gleefully eyeing the pile of new treasures in the Storage Pouch while pondering his own gains from this event.

With a thought, he opened his system panel.

[Host: Chu Sheng]

[Race: Molten Fire Blood Mosquito (Evolvable)]

[Bloodline: Intermediate (One Star)]

[Qi Blood: 589.2 (Second-Grade Early Stage)]

[Spirit: 511.7 (Second-Grade Early Stage)]

[Evolution Points: 91.5]

[Skills: Melt Heart Demon Spike Lv4, Blood Food Tracking Lv3, Molten Fire Insect Nest Lv4, Flame Burst Feather Lv3]

[Notice: The next evolution requires a Qi Blood Value of 500 and will consume 80 Evolution Points! (Conditions met, evolution available at any time, requires 24 hours!)]

Looking at this luxurious panel, Chu Sheng felt a deep sense of satisfaction.

’I’ve saved up enough Evolution Points. I can undergo my fourth evolution at any time!’

’I just wonder what direction this evolution will take?’

’Based on last time, the evolutionary path seems to depend on the blood I’ve consumed…’

’…It can’t be a turtle, can it?’

’That’s not right! I didn’t drink that much turtle blood! The blood I drank the most was from the Azure Flame Flying Lion cub! So my evolution should lean in that direction, right?’

’Hiss… Then again, with my Mental Power having increased so much, I wonder if that will affect the outcome of the evolution?’

Chu Sheng rubbed his forelegs together incessantly, filled with extreme anticipation.

’It’s just a bit annoying. These idiot leaders won’t stop giving gifts, and after they’re done, they have to give a long-winded speech. What is wrong with them?’

’Sigh, well, they’re here to give me resources, so I’ll just put up with it for now…’

’Once I get this haul of resources, I can find a safe place tonight and start evolving right away!’

…

「At the same time.」

A high-speed train arriving from the provincial capital, Du Nan City, slowly pulled into the Jiang City station.

Two figures stepped off the train.

One was a young female teacher with a pretty face, and the other a male teacher with a gentle and somewhat steady temperament.

They were the proctors from Du Nan First Middle School, sent to oversee Gu Yuexi’s transfer assessment.

The moment they stepped out of the station, they smelled the slightly thin Spiritual Qi in the air.

The female teacher, Wang Li, furrowed her brow tightly. “Seriously, there isn’t even a basic city-wide Spirit Gathering Array underground! This level of Spiritual Qi concentration… no wonder it can’t produce any geniuses. It’s no surprise this place is so backward!”

The male teacher beside her, Liu Feng, shot her a helpless glance and said, “Teacher Wang, that’s easy for you to say. Do you think Jiang City doesn’t have a Spirit Gathering Array because they don’t want one?”

Wang Li turned her head, puzzled. “What other reason could there be?”

Liu Feng: “…”

Wang Li, completely oblivious to his speechlessness, continued her rant. “They don’t even know enough to build the most basic city-wide Spirit Gathering Array. Sigh… All I can say is, there’s a reason they’re so backward!”

“Being backward is one thing, but to have no self-awareness! Some high school senior from this place actually dared to apply for a transfer to our Du Nan First Middle School? What were they thinking?”

Her tone was filled with resentment. Having been born and raised in a first-tier provincial capital like Du Nan, she had never even been to a second-tier city, let alone a remote and backward county-level town like Jiang City.

This place was several thousand kilometers from Du Nan, a full day’s journey even by high-speed rail. Being inexplicably sent to work in such a remote place would make anyone unhappy.

Moreover!

Wang Li was almost certain that the student applying for the transfer couldn’t possibly meet the requirements!

The gap between a first-tier provincial capital and a county-level town was like an insurmountable chasm.

After all, even the vice principal of their Du Nan First Middle School was an Eighth-Grade Martial Artist, powerful enough to be on par with the City Lord of Jiang City!

A top genius from a small place like Jiang City would, at best, be considered an upper-middle-tier “honor student” in Du Nan.

Furthermore, with the college entrance exams approaching, transferring to Du Nan First Middle School required one’s strength to be at least at the Second-Grade Early Stage!

As far as she knew, a place like Jiang City had never in its history produced a high school student at the Second-Grade Early Stage! The strongest had only ever reached the Peak of First-Grade!

Therefore, she felt that the student applying for the transfer was simply being unreasonable and had purely wasted their time.

But the Education Bureau had its regulations, so they had no choice but to come, making it feel like a completely pointless trip.
