Global Awakening: Eavesdropping on the SSS-level School Beauty's Inner Voice-Chapter 47 Jealousy Thunder! Lei Dong, rejected by Teacher Jiang Han as a disciple!
Chapter 47: Chapter 47 Jealousy Thunder! Lei Dong, rejected by Teacher Jiang Han as a disciple!
At the North Gate of the main entrance of the Great Emperor Academy in Imperial City, numerous Awakener students had gathered.
Most of them were freshmen, with only a few upperclassmen who had returned to the Great Emperor Academy in Imperial City ahead of time.
The elite sophomores representing the Great Emperor Academy in the Global High-level Awakening Academy Competition were expected to arrive on the school bus around noon today.
These students had gathered here to catch a glimpse of the elites capable of participating in the Global High-level Awakening Academy Competition.
Especially the freshmen who had joined the Great Emperor Academy these days, wanting to see those genius elites among the sophomores.
"Have you heard? Today at noon, the top ten strongest sophomores from our Great Emperor Academy will be back!"
"I’ve heard more than just that. Despite the intense new Awakener courses recently, I’ve kept up with the High-level Awakened Academy Competition held globally, and saw our Great Emperor Academy achieve the second-highest global rank this year!"
"I watched it too! In the final battle for first place, our Great Emperor Academy’s sophomore Yong Yu fought against Drake from Beiyin Domain, repeatedly pushing Drake, the strongest sophomore of Beiyin Domain, into a desperate situation.
Unfortunately, we were just a step away from victory and suffered a close defeat. If there was another chance, our Great Emperor Academy’s senior Yong Yu would definitely win!"
Lin Tianming, under Ye Qingxue’s urging, also arrived at this North Gate.
As soon as he arrived, he heard other passersby students mentioning Beiyin Domain, reminding Lin Tianming of last night’s encounter with Alice from Beiyin Domain.
He did not join the conversation of those passerby students and stood under the shade of the trees with his girlfriend Ye Qingxue, waiting.
The nearby passerby students, engrossed in their discussion, did not notice that Lin Tianming, a well-known new student, was also present.
"To push Beiyin Domain’s genius Awakeners into a desperate situation and achieve the second-best result is already quite good for our Great Emperor Academy. Beiyin Domain has the world’s strongest Awakener cultivation resources and top-tier students, losing the finals to them is not shameful!"
"It’s extremely hard to win against Beiyin Domain’s students in the Global High-level Awakening Academy Competition and take first place. The last time our Great Emperor Academy won first place was when Senior Sister Wang Yanran, about to resign her position as the Student Council President, led the team and overwhelmingly defeated the genius Awakeners from Beiyin Domain!"
"However, in the past decade, the only time our Great Emperor Academy and the collective High-level Awakened Academies of Jiuzhou sent teams that defeated Beiyin Domain’s genius Awakeners to win first place was that batch led by Senior Sister Wang Yanran. All the other times we were completely suppressed by Beiyin Domain!"
"Alas, I wonder if, after a year of honing, there will be an Awakener capable of defeating the strongest genius from Beiyin Domain among us freshmen next summer vacation, fiercely giving Beiyin Domain a slap in the face!"
Overhearing the group of students chatting so enthusiastically, mentioning the potential of their freshman year, Ye Qingxue waved her little fist at Lin Tianming.
"With a genius like Brother Tianming here, our freshmen class will definitely surpass Beiyin Domain!"
[Although I wasn’t a freshman at the Great Emperor Academy in my previous life, I had followed the Global High-level Awakening Academy Competition a year later, where Brother Tianming overwhelmingly defeated the strongest genius of Beiyin Domain and boldly claimed the championship!]
[Even if my reincarnation adds some changes to this life, with Brother Tianming having me, the reincarnated Ice God, as his practice partner and occasionally sharing my peak Ice God cultivation insights, the first place in the global competition is still within easy reach!]
Lin Tianming, facing Ye Qingxue’s admiring and encouraging eyes, couldn’t help but smile, aware of her inner thoughts.
"Qingxue, you must also work hard, aiming to face me in the finals a year from now!"
Even without Ye Qingxue’s encouragement, Lin Tianming was filled with confidence for next year’s Global High-level Awakening Academy Competition.
He, after all, had personally defeated Alice, Beiyin Domain’s strongest genius just last night, and believed that he could win again in a year.
At that moment, Ye Qingxue noticed a school bus that had just stopped outside the North Gate, shaking Lin Tianming’s arm.
"Brother Tianming, a school bus has stopped at the entrance of the North Gate. It seems that the ten sophomores who participated in the competition have returned!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming also looked towards the entrance of the North Gate.
One by one, Awakeners with extraordinary auras stepped off the school bus and leisurely entered the Great Emperor Academy.
They were, indeed, the ten strongest sophomores of the Great Emperor Academy.
As Lin Tianming and others observed them, those entering the school also took note of the spectators at the North Gate entrance.
One of the sophomores, not at all timid, greeted the new students nearby as though returning home to a warm welcome from folks.
At the same time, he remarked to someone beside him, "Are these this year’s freshmen? They look quite spirited; just not sure how many can really fight!"
Another sophomore, wearing an expression of fatigue and yawning, complained, "I’m so sleepy, this jetlag is killing me... Yawn... Right now, I just want to go back to my freshman dorm and sleep, not thinking about anything else!"
The curious sophomore observing the nearby new students glanced at the sleepy one and said, "Are you that sleepy, Zhang Zixi? And you’re muddled, you’re not a freshman anymore, you’re a sophomore now, all around us are juniors and juniors, so you better make a good impression!"
Zhang Zixi, with no consciousness of being a senior, responded, "Uh... Li Hao, didn’t we participate in the competition as freshmen?"
Li Hao shot a look at the confused Zhang Zixi, "You know that was just when we went; now that we’re back and the new semester has started, you’re a sophomore now!"
Zhang Zixi yawned again, "Oh, I see..."
Seeing Zhang Zixi about to nod off, Li Hao didn’t bother with him and went straight to another sophomore who was glued to his phone the whole time.
Glancing at the cellphone’s screen, a video of yesterday’s fight between Lin Tianming and Feng Lan was playing, prompting Li Hao to tap on the video-watching sophomore’s shoulder.
"Lei Dong, you’ve been obsessing over this video since yesterday. You’ve been watching it all day long. What’s the deal? Are you really interested in these freshmen or... are you more interested in the Feng Family’s young miss? I must say, she’s indeed beautiful. Don’t tell me you’re planning to make her your girlfriend?"
But as soon as Li Hao asked, Lei Dong, who had been intently watching the video, burst into a tempest of Thunder Light.
"Get lost! Stop being annoying!"
Li Hao wasn’t scared off by Lei Dong’s sudden rage, he teased, "Could it be I’ve guessed right? Lei Dong, are you in love?"
From behind, a sophomore girl participating in the competition also laughed, "I don’t think he fell head-over-heels at first sight for the Feng Family’s beautiful miss. Lei Dong keeps watching that broken video probably just to see that junior called Lin Tianming!"
Zhang Zixi, who had been drowsy, couldn’t help but join the conversation: "So Lei Dong likes men, huh?"
This made Lei Dong, seeing the conversation veering further off course, angrily glare at Zhang Zixi: "Seeking death!"
Li Hao then curiously turned to the sophomore girl behind: "Mo Jinghong, why then do you think Lei Dong is so concerned about this freshman Lin Tianming?"
Questioned like this, Mo Jinghong shared her view.
"Because that guy was the first student personally taken in by Teacher Jiang Han, and Lei Dong, who possesses an SSS-class Thunder Attribute Superpower Talent, had actively requested to join under Teacher Jiang Han last year but got dismissed. I think he’s probably holding onto that grievance!"
Hearing Mo Jinghong say this, Li Hao illuminated an understanding expression: "I see, so Lei Dong is jealous of that junior called Lin Tianming!"
"Mo... Jing... Hong! Li... Hao! Are you two asking for a fight with me?"
With his secret revealed, Lei Dong’s body crackled with explosive electric light.
The leading sophomore male timely cleared his throat: "Lei Dong, rein in your temper. There are freshmen around; we can’t start off with infighting and set a bad example. Also, Mo Jinghong, Li Hao, stop provoking Lei Dong."
"Lei Dong, I was just telling the truth, why get angry at me? I, Mo Jinghong, am not afraid of you!"
Mo Jinghong initially retorted without losing momentum to Lei Dong.
Only then did she turn to the leading man at the front: "Yong Yu, out of respect for you, I won’t start anything with Lei Dong today. He’s just being petty and blaming others for stating facts."
Li Hao simply shrugged his shoulders, no longer saying anything.
The other sophomores also appeared indifferent to the situation.
Feeling irritable, Lei Dong put away his phone and continued walking toward the campus with Yong Yu and others.
Just then, a nearby passerby student caught Lei Dong’s attention.
"Hey, isn’t that Lin Tianming from our batch of freshmen, one of only two guaranteed admissions? Didn’t expect him to come to the North Gate to join the hubbub, watching the strongest sophomores returning from the competition!"
"Indeed! He beat the other guaranteed admission student Feng Lan at the Wind Bell Arena yesterday, and even thrashed a Level 25 sophomore Wang Jian the day before. Now he’s quite a celebrity among the freshmen at the Imperial Great Emperor Academy!"
"It’s just unclear if he can brush shoulders with the ten strongest sophomores returning from the competition, given that he has conquered a Level 25 sophomore Wang Jian!"
Following the gazes of these freshmen, Lei Dong quickly locked onto Lin Tianming.
Having watched Lin Tianming’s video repeatedly for a day, he recognized him instantly.
Lin Tianming, who was with Ye Qingxue, noticed the gaze from Lei Dong and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He did not know this sophomore, why did he seem to harbor malice?
It couldn’t be that this sophomore was also someone victimized by his predecessor in his past life?
His System was bound to the Goddess Destiny System; it shouldn’t be such a heavy taste to involve a guy!
Then why was he being targeted?
Ahead, leading Yong Yu also glanced back at Lei Dong focusing on Lin Tianming.
"Lei Dong, we have to go register once more before dispersing, don’t fall behind!"
Unexpectedly, Lei Dong blatantly ignored Yong Yu, his form flashing forward like thunder, briskly appearing before Lin Tianming, and emitting formidable thunder and lightning power without concealment, pressing Lin Tianming.
"Are you Lin Tianming?"
