Chapter 539: Chapter 0539: Seal (Third Update Request for Subscription)
“Ha ha…Finally, the exam is over, I’m so happy.”
Like a wild horse out of control, Bai Ling galloped freely on the open street.
Behind her were Mi Jiaying and Li Lv, both bearing helpless expressions.
“Regardless, I truly admire her physical strength!” praised Li Lv.
The martial arts college entrance exam is stricter than the liberal arts one, not only does it include a written test, but the physical examination that follows is even more demanding.
It not only tests the foundation like strength, speed, nerve reflexes, but even realbat!
Anyways, after he and Mi Jiaying finished the exam, they felt as if their entire bodies were exhausted.
There was noparison with Bai Ling, who was frolicking around like a small deer.
“Yeah…Summer vacation begins as soon as the exam ends!”
Bai Ling made a victory sign behind her: “Li Lv, Jiaying… lighten up.”<div>
“Of course, you’d be happy, after all, you’re a special recruit…”
Li Lv added in with a deep sigh.
He couldn’t believe that East City Mystery College would recruit special students from his school. The requirement was singing talent, can you imagine?
However, when heter discovered Bai Ling’s identity, he finally understood.
She was a second-generation privileged kid.
While he envied her, he was naturally also a little jealous. If only he had such an uncle, or at least, like Mi Jiaying, take intensive singing lessons, get a one hundred point deduction from the college entrance exam, and still be admitted!
“Also… We martial arts students report on August 1st, some schools start even earlier… The world and human beings need us, there isn’t much time left for us to y around.”
Mi Jiaying solemnly said.
Ding Ding!
At that moment, their cell phones rang at the same time, receiving an international news alert.
“…The joint military operation was a great sess, annihting seven tribes of the Surfing Fishman, killing the Fishman King!”
“Many heroes and soldiers sacrificed their lives in this operation, mankind will forever remember their contributions!”
“We won!”
Bai Ling chuckled in excitement: “Now, the ocean has be safer.”
However, Mi Jiaying and Li Lv didn’t share her exhration, their expressions intensified instead, their eyes turned slightly red: “No…”
Bai Ling sensed the solemnity, she continued reading, and after the appalling numbers of sacrifices and losses, there was even a list of fallen experts:
Wang Chaoqun, Liu Xiaodang, Professor, Phoenix Girl…
“You… You have to be kidding.”
Li Lv’s phone fell to the ground: “But they were among the top hundred experts in the world… the strongest upational person! How could they have all deceased so fast… So many of them?”<div>
“The report also mentioned that they encountered the Ocean Beast Emperor, more than a hundred of them! So many dangers are hidden beneath the ocean…” Mi Jiaying’s eyes were also filled with teardrops.
At the same time, the entire East City seemed to fall silent.
Even the news on their cell phones turned to ck and white, seemingly mourning and paying respect to the deceased heroes.
“Keep reading… All these sacrifices were made for the purpose of killing the Fishman King who had the ability to control the Ocean Beast Emperor!”<div>
Bai Ling quickly scrolled through the news: “So that’s what happened. If it grew stronger, humans may indeed lose their supremacy.”
“For this reason, no matter how much we have to pay or sacrifice, it is worth it.”
“Under the cooperation of the Spirit King, Thunder God, Earth Immortal, Telekicist, and Grand Magician, in the end, the Fishman King was executed, and humans once again achieved a great victory… ”
Mi Jiaying read out thest part, feeling a sense of depression that she couldn’t exin.
“I’ve made up my mind, even if I can’t get into this university, I’ll still continue trying the martial arts college… to be a protector of humanity.” Li Lv clenched his fist, tears welling up in his eyes.
“I… I will start school early, to strive to be someone useful.”
Bai Ling sped her phone against her chest, seemingly feeling the heavy responsibility resting on her uncle’s shoulder.
…
In the blink of an eye, a month quickly passed.
August, the opening day of East City Mystery College.
Bai Ling stepped out of the white fog, dragging a suitcase. Seeing the age-old Arc de Triomphe, her expression seemed a bit down.
Throughout her mind kept emerging pieces of memory from the summer holiday:
Those were the scenes of Huang Minghao handing over top-secret documents to her.<div>
Her mother cried heartbreakingly in front of her.
She remembered the mental training and coinciding drills being carried out in a secret base.
…
“Was my father’s death… really rted to my uncle?”
Since that moment, Bai Ling felt her mind was very chaotic, extremely chaotic.
She even forgot how she made it through the vague and unaware summer vacation. Only when she regained her senses did she realize she has already arrived at the familiar yet unfamiliar gate of the Mysterious Academy.
“Bai Ling, you finally arrived.”
At the school entrance, a female teacher was already waiting there, it was Li Weiwei!
She came forward to meet Bai Ling, naturally took over Bai Ling’s luggage: “Did you have fun during the summer vacation?”
“Fun… fun!”
Bai Ling answered with a forced smile.
“I will handle your paperwork for you, you go meet with the principal. He… he misses you quite a lot.” Li Weiwei said.
“Alright… ok.”<div>
Walking along the campus corridor, Bai Ling’s memory kept tumbling in her mind.
‘Bai Jing is someone with great caution and he suspected to have the ability to read emotions and even memories… so any pretending in front of him would mean nothing. You must pass this obstacle!’
‘With your current state, standing in front of him ispletely defenseless, hence, we’ve set up a ‘memory seal’ scheme for you…ter, we will have a specialiste to hypnotize, encrypt your recent memories, you can freely choose whether to ‘shut down’! The key to the hypnotizing is on this ring. He can’t always use his method every time he sees you…’
Bai Ling stared at the silver ring on her left hand, turning it around: ‘A thirty-minute temporary forgetting, should be enough…’
Once she made this move, her eyes appeared to be a bit lost, as if she forgot something, but a happy smile had returned to her face, she opened the door to the principal’s office: “L… Uncle… your lovable niece hase to see you.”
“Oh? It’s Bai Ling,e in.”
Immense in his work behind the desk, Su Lu looked up, showing a rare smile: “I must give you credit for persuading your mother to let you study here.”
To tell the truth, Bai Ling’s high school grades were not good enough for the key martial arts college.
However, with special enrollment, she got admitted to East City Mysterious Academy.
What surprised Su Lu was that Bai Tong, who always had strong resentments against him, actually gave her permission for Bai Ling to study here. Did time prove to be the best medicine? Had Bai Tong chosen to gradually forget the past and forgive him? – Even though Su Lu never believed he had done anything wrong.
“Of course… and moreover, Uncle is here, I muste.”
Bai Ling proudly replied.
After about fifteen minutes, she left the office, spending another fifteen minutes or so. A total of half an hourter, Bai Ling’s eyes darkened again: “The most dangerous first time is over, he won’t pry into my soul casually whenever we meet again…”<div>
As soon as she mentioned this, Bai Ling covered her mouth abruptly.
She recalled Huang Minghao’s warning – ‘there are Bai Jing’s spies everywhere in the school’!
