C535 Can't Read a Good Person's Heart
"Didn't you just say that you can surpass me? Why don't you compete with me?"
"You don't need to compete, you can't beat him." Xiu Wanliu quickly pulled Ye Chen back, hinting him not to be impulsive.
However, Ye Chen gently patted her little hand and gave her a calm smile. "I'm fine."
Ye Chen said faintly, "How do you want to compete?"
"You really dare to agree?"
Chang Fenghua's laughter became louder, and his eyes narrowed into slits.
As long as he defeated Ye Chen, he would be able to win Xiu Wanliu's heart a step further.
"I don't think you look familiar. May I ask which family you are from? What background do you have?"
"Or, what position do you hold in Pingtian Academy?" Everyone was puzzled.
"He is just an applicant. As far as I know, he's not a family disciple, he's just a personal cultivator "
Everyone came to a realization.
"How can he be compared to Teacher Chang? He is really ambitious."
"Yeah, he's only in his twenties. He hasn't even gone to society to train. He hasn't even suffered a blow."
"Teacher Chang is really a good person. He actually took the initiative to help the newcomers."
When Ye Chen heard everyone's praise for Chang Fenghua, he sneered in his heart.
This group of people was really realistic.
They started to suck up to the teachers before they could even start working in the academy.
Chang Fenghua gestured for everyone to quiet down.
He raised a sneer and said, "Let's compete in climbing the Heaven Staircase. How about it?"
"Alright."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "But if there are no prizes, I will not participate in the competition."
Chang Fenghua was stunned.
He was undoubtedly the final victor in this competition. Ye Chen actually wanted to add prizes. Could it be that he had too many good things and couldn't give them out?
His smile grew wider and wider.
"Alright, I see that you're wearing ordinary clothes, so I'm sure you don't have much money. Let's bet on the magic tool."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a bunch of good magic tool and Long Sword appeared out of thin air.
Everyone couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
This Long Sword blade was tough and sharp. It emitted Yingying's essence. It was truly not an ordinary item.
"Teacher Chang is really generous."
"What do you know? Teacher Chang would definitely win this match. So whatever he takes out is just a formality. "
" You are right. "
"Ye Chen, this magic tool is an outstanding teacher that I got last year. It was given to me by the academy. It is extremely valuable to me. You mustn't take out anything bad and bet with me! Even if I know that your personal condition is ordinary and you can't take out anything good, but at least you have to ensure a relatively fair bet."
He actually had the nerve to take out a magic tool like this?
Ye Chen felt even more disdain in his heart.
He was not as high-profile as Chang Fenghua. Instead, he took out a dagger from his pocket.
"This is a spirit tool?"
"Did I see wrongly? How could he possibly have a spirit tool?"
"What do you know? The surface of the spirit tool is inscribed with the spirit pattern."
Everyone came to a sudden realization. Their expressions were strange.
Just now, they had thought that Ye Chen was poor, but now, Ye Chen had taken out an even more precious treasure.
They wanted to see how Chang Fenghua would deal with it.
Everyone's gaze shifted, and Chang Fenghua's expression became extremely ugly. His expression was very gloomy.
He frowned slightly.
How was this possible?
No matter how he looked at it, Ye Chen did not look like a rich man.
How could he have spirit tool?
Should he compete with Ye Chen?
He was a teacher. If he won, although he was stronger than Ye Chen, he was not proud. If he lost, he would lose face.
If Ye Chen pretended to be weak, then he would be in trouble.
Ye Chen looked at Chang Fenghua's cunning eyes and thought to himself, He is quite smart. He wants to retreat, but I can't let him leave.
0
Ye Chen pretended to be fearless and said in a deep voice, "This dagger is my family treasure. Now I will take it out and bet with you on a magic tool. You should not lose."
Family heirloom?
Chang Fenghua's brows relaxed a little.
He almost thought that this spirit tool was Ye Chen's ordinary weapon.
The family heirloom of the Chang family was even more valuable than Ye Chen's family heirloom. It was an existence that surpassed the spirit tool.
"Let's make a bet."
Chang Fenghua continued, "Your bet is more precious than mine. So if you win, I can promise you an additional condition. Otherwise, there will be rumors that I will take advantage of you."
"It's a deal."
Ye Chen's eyes sparkled. "I will say this condition now. If I win, kneel down and call me grandpa three times. What do you think?"
Chang Fenghua glared at him.
Ye Chen was humiliating him in front of everyone.
But he couldn't go back on his word.
"I promise you. Let's start quickly."
Ye Chen looked up.
The Heaven Staircase was a hundred meters tall and several meters wide. It was enough for more than a dozen people to pass through at the same time.
Ye Chen asked curiously, "If we climb together, won't we share the pressure?"
"No, there are a few small partitions in every level of the Heaven Staircase."
"I saw it."
"Every small partition is equivalent to a new Heaven Staircase. The power is separated. "
Ye Chen smiled slightly to show that he understood.
Then, he strode forward and stepped onto the Heaven Staircase together with Xiu Wanliu and Chang Fenghua.
Chang Fenghua's face changed color as they walked, because they had already reached more than ten levels. This was the first difficulty of the Heaven Staircase. Xiu Wanliu's breathing had become rapid, but Ye Chen seemed to be fine.
Sometimes, he even felt that he was walking fast, so he walked back and walked again.
This scene stunned everyone.
They had never seen anyone wandering back and forth in the Heaven Staircase.
Ye Chen turned around and looked.
When he saw the ugly expressions on everyone's faces, sympathy welled up in his heart.
They were all here to apply for the job, so he might as well help them.
Ye Chen returned to the sixteenth floor from the Second level 10 and said to a middle-aged uncle beside him, "Brother, you seem to be a little tired. Let me give you a hand."
That man was not moved at all. He just gritted his teeth and persisted.
Ye Chen felt that the man was embarrassed. He continued, "You reach out your right hand and grab my left hand."
The man slowly raised his head. His eyes were filled with killing intent. It was as if he was saying, Don't disturb him when he climbs the Heaven Staircase.
However, Ye Chen was not moved at all.
He waved his hand, and passed through the spatial divide. He wanted to grab the man.
The man hurriedly dodged.
At that moment, his breathing became chaotic.
A huge pressure suddenly pressed down, pushing the man to the bottom of the Heaven Staircase.
"Ye Chen, you ruined my plan."
Ye Chen innocently spread his hands. "I just want to help you. Don't speak nonsense."
