Chapter 589: Blind Dates are Not Necessary
Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas
Mo Ling blinked her eyes and was just about to say something. However, Ling Luoyu gave Zhang Shan a cold glare. “Let’s go inside.” She continued and took a quick look at Wang Zheng. In her mind, she had firmly labelled the two of them as shallow men.
Student Wang felt unjustly implicated. What had this got to do with him?
Mo Ling gave Zhang Shan an embarrassed smile, and greeted Wang Zheng. “Wang Zheng, my apologies. I have some important matters to speak with my senior about today, I’ll treat you guys to a meal next time.”
Wang Zheng stood up and gave a little smile. “We are also almost done and were just about to go back. Let’s put this off to a later time.”
Ling Luoyu suddenly stopped her steps. Wang Zheng?
Ling Luoyu took a glance. This guy was Wang Zheng? The Wang Zheng that her grandpa had sang high praises about?
Zhang Shan completely went into his “picking up girls” mode. He had swiftly gotten Mo Ling’s number on Skylink, then he turned towards Ling Luoyu and asked, “Senior, how should I address you? I am Zhang Shan from Class Huang-7.”
All the other students in the restaurant laughed when they saw Zhang Shan asking for Ling Luoyu’s number. He was yet another silly but amusing guy who had acted recklessly.
Ling Luoyu was the granddaughter of Professor Gail and was from Class Xuan-1. Her comprehensive ability was super powerful. But there was nothing that could be done, as after all, she had inherited an above average IQ. It was possible that her suitors could line up all the way from inner Roland to outer Roland Garros if one had to count. However, this beauty had inherited Professor Gail’s temperament. She was relatively straightforward, and since Professor was one of the members of the Elite Academy’s council, she was one with true authority, and should never be provoked.
There were only a few of her classmates who had her number. The last time Tyrant Hu from Class Xuan-1 tried to ask her for her Skylink number, the outcome was him being smashed into the ground by Ling Luoyu...
It was simply a story that rendered every listener with teary eyes, and should not be mentioned ever again.
Anyway, even now Student Hu would absolutely not go within the 50 meters range of Ling Luoyu.
Now, everyone was staring at Zhang Shan. They were not sure what sort of mood Goddess Ling was in today. Would it be a verbal or physical battle today? The outcome of a verbal battle would be better, as at most it would just be an embarrassment.
For a moment, the restaurant was so quiet that even if a needle fell it could have been heard. Then, everyone heard Ling Luoyu’s indifferent reply. “Give me... your number and his, I will contact the both of you in a while.”
Cling clang!
Someone’s cutlery fell onto the floor and and broke into pieces.
Was there a mistake? It would be one thing if she gave Zhang Shan her number only. Perhaps she was giving face to Mo Ling. But why did she also give her number to Wang Zheng who did not even ask for it?
Mo Ling was also blinking her eyes in surprise, she did not really understand why. Only after entering the private room did she ask, “Senior, aren’t you afraid that they will give your number to everyone else?”
Ling Luoyu laughed, exposing a pair of small canine teeth. She was a little pleased and said, “I’m just afraid that they would do nothing at all.”
To tell the truth, she had been hearing Grandpa Gail go on and on about Wang Zheng every day back at home. Talking about how Wang Zheng was a genius and so and so. In fact it was so bad that her ears were starting to grow calluses! Moreover, after knowing that Wang Zheng was coming to inner Roland, her grandpa started giving her meaningful glances, and the way he looked at her was like a smile and yet not a smile.
Don’t think that she could not understand what was going on. He was definitely coming up with some ploy!
Really! Ling Luoyu was so annoyed, was she still his favourite granddaughter?
Ling Luoyu did not want to admit it, but she was indeed jealous of the attention Gail lavished on Wang Zheng.
However, with her status, it was also not appropriate for her to take the initiative to find trouble with Wang Zheng. After all, she was still a senior. Only those very frustrated guys would find their juniors to show off to. If one had the ability, one would be challenging the ones stronger than them.
But since she met them coincidentally today, she would of course not let this opportunity slip by and she got the Skylink numbers first.
Mo Ling blinked her eyes, and intelligently decided not to ask any further, but to put forward her request. “Senior, I have a mission in the World of Saints that I need help with...”
In the World of Saints, Mo Ling had already reached the Acolyte level. However, her Cultivation Technique was currently still the Sixteen Point Blade Technique. It was not because she had no other choice, but it was because she had an even better choice.
The Holy Ice Art. In the World of Saints, the Holy Ice Technique was an extremely special Cultivation Technique. Its full version had the potential for 32 Points. However, the conditions to acquire it was also very special as the entire Cultivation Technique was divided into six pieces.
However, people with aspirations were the most cursed in a sense. Mo Ling had already collected five pieces of the Holy Ice Art. One last piece, and she would be able to complete the Cultivation Technique of the Holy Ice Art.
“You have news about the last piece?”
“Yes, it’s with someone.”
“Who?”
“It’s someone who you also had a little grudge with... Charcoal.” Mo Ling blinked her eyes. “I have some weird feelings about Charcoal, he might not be someone who is easy for us to deal with.”
Ling Luoyu’s eyes twitched. After being defeated by Charcoal, she was a little depressed. However, she did not spend too much thought about the things happening in the World of Saints. In fact, a considerable portion of people in the Elite Academy only regarded the World of Saints as a place to play.
“Mo Ling, I know that everyone is very concerned about the World of Saints. But personally, for me, I feel that that place is more for guidance purposes only. This World of Saints is a collaboration project between the school and some influential party. I feel that they treat everyone more like a test subject, and of course, there would naturally be some training results.” Ling Luoyu said.
Mo Ling nodded her head. Actually, everyone being so enthusiastic also made the challenges more interesting. Some of the things inside were really very difficult. And the key thing was that the difficulty was not due to trials designed for failure... instead it really depended upon one’s personal strength, judgment, and so on. There were numerous factors that affected the success of these trials. One couldn’t not be serious about it considering how interesting it was, but at the same time, one shouldn’t be overly serious about it as well.
“It’s said that Wang Zheng is from Class Huang-7?” Ling Luoyu asked. Mo Ling’s expression immediately changed, looking at Ling Luoyu with a smile yet not a smile.
“Senior, don’t tell me...”
“D*mn you girl, what are you trying to say!” Ling Luoyu was the well-known feminist from the Xuan grade, who specialised in bullying “males”. But all of a sudden, she was showing interest in a little male junior, this was a little abnormal.
Seeing Mo Ling’s meaningful glance, Ling Luoyu let out a sigh helplessly. “I am only telling you this. If this spreads, I will come and kill you!”
Ling Luoyu and Mo Ling were long time family friends. They had grew up together, and were both immigrants of Roland Garros. Ling Luoyu had came here since Gail’s generation, and she belonged to an influential family of elites. As the place that gathered the elites of mankind, Roland Garros indeed had the seemed like a little realm whereby only the truly exceptional existed. Of course, Roland Garros was doing this to serve the whole mankind, and was not interested in accumulating power.
Once she heard about a gossip, Mo Ling’s eyes totally lit up. “Luoyu, we have been friends since childhood. Do you think I will betray you?”
“Sigh, I don’t know what’s wrong with my grandpa, he wants to set me up for a blind date.” Ling Luoyu said helplessly.
“Blind date!!!” Mo Ling was so surprised that she almost jumped up. Ling Luoyu pulled her down and covered her mouth. “Are you crazy? Do you want the whole world to know!”
Ling Luoyu was someone from Xuan-1. Abilities aside, with Gail as her backer, as he was the number 1 most honoured and respected teacher in the Elite Academy, this little princess led a very comfortable life and was even bossy.
Mo Ling was trying her best not to laugh, but her whole face was red from trying to hold back her laughter. She was almost not able to breathe.
“If you want to laugh, just laugh.” Ling Luoyu said grudgingly.
Mo Ling finally burst out in laughter. She was convulsing with laughter, a beautiful woman guffawing loudly. What a pity, Student Zhang Shan had missed such a beautiful scene.
“Well, Wang Zheng is not too bad. I actually asked whether he had any intention to be the class monitor of Class Huang-7, but too bad he had no interest.”
Mo Ling said. “But teacher Gail thinks really highly of him. He gave him the privilege to not attend classes on the first lesson! It’s really ridiculous, I heard that there were already quite a lot of people who dislike him.”
In the Elite Academy X, where everyone refused to accept anyone being stronger than them, how did one prove themselves as the outstanding one?
That would mean what other people didn’t have, one would possess. And what other people couldn’t do, one could.
This was also privilege.
If Olivios received such benefits, so be it. But who did Wang Zheng think he was?
Just that this privilege of Wang Zheng was for Gail’s classes. It was also not so easy for everyone to find the reason behind it. After all, it was not in respect to battles, and it would be lowering your own status a little to fight someone just because of this matter.
Ling Luoyu shook her head slightly. “My grandpa is not that sort of person. Wang Zheng really doesn’t need to attend the lessons. I’ll tell you this secretly, He is the youngest member of the Universe’s Genesis Coffee. My grandpa said that if he concentrates on scientific research, he might become the leading person in the world of physics.”
Mo Ling could not let out any laughter any more. “So, what you are saying is... he actually became a member of that organisation?”
Universe’s Genesis Coffee, it was unofficial, yet more official than any other official organisation. It gathered the highest-ranking scientists in the Milky Way Alliance, including mankind and aliens. Every single person that entered must definitely put forward an adequate level of skill. And basically, anyone who could enter it at the age of 40 years old and below would be considered as young and promising.
Ling Luoyu nodded her head.
“This... is impossible, was there a mistake?” Even though Mo Ling’s family did not deal with this aspect of things, however, due to their intimate relationship, they obviously knew how powerful this organisation was. Actually, in today’s society, the mightier the power, the more secretive they would be.
