Chapter 197: Chapter 103: Frenzied Plunder! 100 Million Huaxia Coins

"100 points?!"

"Why does he get to cut in line?!"

"Exactly! And there’s no purchase limit?! This isn’t fair!"

The few students at the back of the line, who originally had some hope of buying points, completely lost it when they saw this scene!

They pointed at Gao Yongkang and Lin Yi, shouting angrily, their faces flushed crimson.

Gao Yongkang buying 100 points meant he was taking the spots of the last 10 people in line.

Lin Yi glanced coldly at the shouting students, his expression indifferent.

"He’s my classmate. I feel like giving him preferential treatment. Is there a problem?"

"Whose fault is it that you’re at the back of the line?!"

His voice wasn’t loud, but it carried an invisible pressure.

"..."

Choked by Lin Yi’s icy gaze and words, the students were left speechless. Their faces went from red to blue, then from blue to white.

They were furious but didn’t dare to speak.

Their fists were clenched so tight their nails nearly dug into their flesh. In the end, they could only shoot a venomous glare at Gao Yongkang before slipping away into the dispersing crowd, full of pent-up frustration and resentment.

They didn’t even dare to leave behind a single threat.

Just then, a figure deftly squeezed out from a gap in the crowd. Wearing a deliberately fawning smile, she sidled up to the edge of the arena. It was none other than Liu Ying.

"Lin Yi~" Her voice was sickeningly sweet. "You see, we’re both from Yang City, so we’re fellow townspeople. And we’re sort of classmates, right? Could I... Could I also..."

She looked at Lin Yi, full of expectation, hoping to receive the same privilege of cutting in line.

However, Lin Yi didn’t even spare her a glance. His brow furrowed in disgust as if he’d just seen something filthy, and he coldly spat out three words: "Get in line!"

"..."

The sycophantic smile on Liu Ying’s face instantly froze, then twisted into an ugly grimace. A burning sense of shame shot straight to her head.

She never imagined Lin Yi would be so merciless, especially in front of everyone!

She stood frozen in embarrassment for a few seconds, feeling the gazes of mockery and pity from those around her. Ultimately, she could only swallow the rage that was about to erupt, lower her head, and quickly turn and flee from this place of utter humiliation.

Only after running far from the training grounds and ducking into the dim shadows of some trees did Liu Ying abruptly stop.

She turned around and gazed toward the brightly lit Arena 1 in the distance. Her once-pretty face was now twisted by resentment and jealousy, her eyes as venomous as a poisoned dagger.

"Lin Yi! You goddamn bastard! How dare you humiliate me like this! Just you wait! I, Liu Ying, will remember this shame! One day, I’ll pay you back for today’s humiliation a hundred, no, a thousand times over! I’ll grind you under my heel and make you beg me like a dog!"

...

Lin Yi couldn’t care less what Liu Ying was thinking.

’So what if she resents me?’

’It’s just the powerless barking of the weak.’

’What can she do?’

"Alright! Brother Lin, you’re the man!" Gao Yongkang’s face instantly lit up with unrestrained joy upon hearing this.

He deftly pulled out his communicator, scanned the QR code for Lin Yi’s account, and happily transferred the money.

He transferred five million.

Then he began to challenge Lin Yi on the betting platform.

He only had 30 points, so he could only bet 30 points at first.

After receiving Gao Yongkang’s challenge,

Lin Yi accepted, then promptly conceded defeat.

points were transferred to Gao Yongkang’s account.

Next, Gao Yongkang challenged him again, this time betting 60 points.

After three consecutive challenges,

Lin Yi had finally transferred all 100 points to him through the betting platform.

After receiving the points, Gao Yongkang looked at Lin Yi, his eyes filled with gratitude.

"Lin Yi! Thanks! Thank you so much! I, Gao Yongkang, will remember this favor!"

Lin Yi waved his hand dismissively.

"We’re brothers, no need to be so formal. We’re both from Yang City, so it’s only right we help each other out. You should get going; I still have a lot of customers to deal with. In a little while, I might have something I need your help with. I’ll contact you on your communicator then."

"No problem! Just contact me if you need anything!" Gao Yongkang promised, patting his chest.

His face beaming with joy, he squeezed out of the crowd, completely satisfied, and walked away quickly.

Watching Gao Yongkang disappear into the distance,

Lin Yi turned, his gaze sweeping over the long queue that had formed behind him.

The eyes of those students all glittered with a light of desperate desire.

Lin Yi’s voice rang out, steady and clear.

"Next! Same rules, transfer first, then challenge! Hurry it up, don’t waste everyone’s time!"

Instantly, the students in line began to move forward in an orderly fashion.

One by one, they scrambled to show their payment codes.

Accompanied by a chorus of BEEP BEEP sounds and the dazzling flashes of successful transfer notifications,

countless transfers of five hundred thousand Huaxia Coins flowed into Lin Yi’s account like water.

Immediately after, they quickly initiated challenges on the betting platform.

Lin Yi stood his ground, as unmovable as Mountain Tai.

His fingers moved like phantoms across the virtual screen.

Accept, concede, transfer points...

His movements were as smooth as flowing water, his efficiency astonishing.

Every student who received points had a look of irrepressible ecstasy on their face. They thanked Lin Yi profusely before leaving, overjoyed.

...

「The instructors’ dormitory area.」

The night was deep.

Most of the instructors had already entered deep meditation or were fast asleep.

Only a few, tasked with night patrol duty, remained vigilant at their posts.

The area should have been completely silent.

Suddenly!

"HOLY! FUCK!!!"

A curse, filled with horror and disbelief, exploded from one of the private instructor villas like a clap of thunder!

The sheer volume was enough to tear through the tranquil night sky.

The one who let out that yell was none other than the instructor in charge of the betting platform—Li Zhang!
