Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1555: Chapter 1555: You’ll Make Me a Target for Hatred! (5 Updates)

Without even turning his head, Ye Haochuan knew who the newcomer was.

”I’ve told you before, it’s great for kids to have goals, but it’s best not to set them too high, otherwise it’s easy to get frustrated!” Ye Haochuan turned his head and smiled.

Who else could the newcomer be but Ji Tianyu?

Like Ye Haochuan, Ji Tianyu didn’t fly over with flair but instead walked slowly onto the stage from the crowd.

The previous setbacks had made him grow a lot. The most notable change was that he no longer cared about superficial fame and was more low-key and pragmatic.

”If it’s too easy to achieve, what’s the point of setting goals?” Ji Tianyu passed by Ye Haochuan expressionlessly, heading straight into the Greenstone Pagoda.

The five great talents from the previous session didn’t need to participate in the earlier rounds but had to compete in the finals. New and old talents faced off to select the new generation of five great talents.

According to the previous rules, they were supposed to come tomorrow. However, due to the compressed competition schedule this year, they arrived today.

”By the way, where’s Ku Hai, that guy? Why hasn’t he arrived yet?” Thinking of the five great talents, Ye Haochuan suddenly asked.

Among the five great talents, leaving aside Long Keyue, Ming Lang Ku Hai was the closest to him. Last time when they went for the Divine Descent, the three of them stayed together.

Later, Ming Lang voluntarily diverted the enemies, and they lost contact afterward.

After escaping the White Court Origin Realm, Ye Haochuan also tried to contact Ku Hai. However, his phone, like Long Keyue’s, couldn’t be reached.

Ye Haochuan thought Long Keyue might be preparing for the Greenstone Society and was likely in seclusion, so he didn’t pay much attention. He couldn’t figure out why Ku Hai hadn’t arrived yet.

”That Ming Lang guy disappeared shortly after returning to the Sub-Shaking Dimension Realm. He probably won’t be participating in this Greenstone Society!” Long Keyue replied with a smile.

”Disappeared? How could he suddenly disappear? Did he encounter some danger?”

”No way, that guy already broke through to Nascent Soul in the White Court Origin Realm. With his combat strength, dealing with typical Nascent Soul Mid-Stage wouldn’t be an issue; there shouldn’t be any danger!” Long Keyue explained.

”He broke through to Nascent Soul too?” Ye Haochuan couldn’t help being a bit surprised.

”Yes, and it was in the White Court Origin Realm,” Long Keyue answered, ”It’s said that after we parted ways, he wanted to distract the Evil Sect members but inadvertently fell into a black hole. He was unconscious for a day, and when he woke up, he had mysteriously broken through!”

My goodness, comparisons can be maddening!

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

During their journey for the Divine Descent, he and Long Keyue faced many crises and narrowly escaped with their lives. Yet Ku Hai encountered such an unexpected adventure, effortlessly breaking through to Nascent Soul.

Ye Haochuan sighed while following Long Keyue into the pagoda.

Just as he stepped into the doorway, an ethereal woman arrived like a drifting fairy. Her body was adorned with a stunning gauzy robe, surrounded by misty air, adding an extra touch of otherworldly aura.

Even having just seen the enchanting beauty of Long Keyue, the surrounding audience still felt a refreshing surprise upon seeing this woman, unable to resist a cry of admiration.

Several young men, dissatisfied with the recent ”infidelity” incident involving Long Keyue, openly declared that this woman would replace Long Keyue’s position in their hearts, becoming their new goddess.

”That scoundrel Ye Haochuan, not waiting for me again!” The woman glanced around outside the tower, pouted coquettishly, and entered the tower’s door.

Ye Haochuan and Long Keyue entered the Greenstone Pagoda together, directly heading to the fourth floor.

”Miss Long, your seat is over here. Please follow me!” A maid politely addressed Long Keyue as soon as they stepped onto the fourth floor.

The five great talents only need to compete against the newly promoted five great talents in the final round, without participating in the earlier matches.

Following the direction pointed out by the maid, Ye Haochuan also saw the so-called seating arrangement.

It turned out that in front of the arena, besides five judgmental seats, there were five elevated Greenstone platforms. Each Greenstone had a name carved on it, representing the five great talents.

Ye Xiao was already seated on the central Greenstone platform, indicating his status as the top talent. Long Keyue’s seat was to Ye Xiao’s left side.

Ji Tianyu was also sitting on the platform, his position beside Long Keyue, occupying the most left of the five seats.

Long Keyue glanced at her designated position, her eyebrows slightly furrowing, ”I don’t want to sit there; just standing below is fine!”

”This... this is not suitable, right?” The maid hesitated, ”This platform was personally ordered by Sect Master Ye to be built, to display your esteemed status. If you don’t sit there, it would waste Sect Master Ye’s efforts.”

”I said I’m not sitting, so I’m not sitting. Why are you talking nonsense?” Long Keyue’s stubbornness flared up. She didn’t mean to vent anger on the maid; she just didn’t want to sit next to Ye Xiao.

She wasn’t usually a gentle-tempered person; otherwise, Ye Haochuan wouldn’t have dubbed her the ”Female Hero.”

Seeing Long Keyue angry, the maid immediately turned pale, almost collapsing.

”Come on, she’s just following the protocol, why make it difficult for her!” Ye Haochuan consoled, ”Besides, standing here with me will only generate jealousy!”

”Are you worried about me causing envy for you?” Long Keyue teasingly chided.

”Not at all, the biggest grudge is already attracted, who else’s grudge could be greater?” Ye Haochuan pointed at Ye Xiao, ”But you’re just too beautiful, I don’t want all eyes to be on you, leaving no one to watch my match!”

”Smooth talker!” Long Keyue playfully snorted, a slight sweetness showing on her face, no longer refusing the maid’s requests, and walked directly to the Greenstone platform.

Relieved, the maid gave Ye Haochuan a grateful look and then followed Long Keyue.

However, Long Keyue didn’t sit in her designated seat. Instead, she said to Ji Tianyu nearby, ”You sit in the middle!”

Ji Tianyu chuckled slightly, glancing at Long Keyue, then at Ye Haochuan, and finally at Ye Xiao. His gaze had the demeanor of enjoying a good show.

Originally, based on Long Keyue’s tone, he could completely refuse. But adopting a mentality of watching the fun, he ultimately sat between Ye Xiao and Long Keyue.

Ye Xiao’s eyes almost spat fire, yet Ji Tianyu put on a very innocent expression, leaning on the seat, quietly gazing at the arena below, as though ”waiting” for the competition to begin.

Ye Xiao gritted his teeth but eventually tolerated it. Although he was the top talent, he couldn’t openly deal with Ji Tianyu. Both were among the five great talents, each backed by a prominent family, neither fearing the other.

”Ye Haochuan, I will definitely tear you limb from limb!” Ye Xiao’s final hatred pivoted to Ye Haochuan, muttering through clenched teeth.
