Chapter 73.2 : I Want to Enter Modu Martial Academy as a Non-Martial Artist (Part 2)
Tang Qingmo walked in slowly and turned around.
As Lu Tianren hurriedly followed, he saw Tang Qingmo flash him a brilliant smile.
"If it's something I don't want you to know, there's no way I'd let you see it in the first place. Just like Tang Xuerong—she never imagined she'd be sent to an underground ward and used as an experiment either~"
"..."
Lu Tianren froze the moment his foot stepped into the elevator.
At that instant, Tang Qingmo's words once again sent chills down his spine, cold sweat soaking his back!
Tang Qingmo bringing him here today—letting him witness the scene of torturing his own elder sister…
Could it be that he intentionally wanted him to report this to Lu Rongsheng…?
To let the Lu family know the consequences of offending him, of betraying him…
That they would end up just like Tang Xuerong…
Lu Tianren slowly raised his head and saw Tang Qingmo still smiling brightly, but his gaze seemed to have grown sharp and piercing.
"Tianren, why are you spacing out again? Hurry up and come in."
"..."
He subconsciously swallowed, his throat dry. He didn't know whether Tang Qingmo had brought him here with that purpose in mind, but just the fact that such doubts had arisen was enough to make his heart race with unease!
It shouldn't be possible!
They'd known each other for less than two days. The Lu family was a top-tier martial arts family in Modu (Demon City), and Lu Rongsheng was the president of the Martial Arts Association!
Tang Qingmo was nothing more than an ordinary rich young master—how would he dare to warn them…?
Yet the more he thought about it, the more cold sweat beaded on his forehead!
"..."
Lu Tianren took a deep breath to steady himself and forced himself to walk calmly into the elevator.
The elevator clearly wasn't slow, yet in that short span of time, Lu Tianren felt an unbearable weight pressing down on him!
Only when he heard another ding! did his heart finally relax.
After reaching the ground floor, Tang Qingmo walked while looking at his phone and casually asked again, "By the way, Tianren, if I remember correctly, you're a student at Modu Martial Academy, right?"
Lu Tianren replied, "Yes. I'm a third-year student this year."
He had entered Modu Martial Academy with outstanding college entrance exam results.
Moreover, by last semester, he had already completed all four years' worth of theoretical courses.
Next year, he only needed to finish the practical subjects and regularly complete the internships assigned by the academy to earn his remaining credits!
Back when he was a freshman, Lu Tianren had received guidance from Sixth-Rank martial artist Huang Huaxi. Coupled with the fact that he was the young master of the Lu family and was upright and sincere by nature, he had excellent relationships with both teachers and classmates!
However, because he often had to return home to assist Lu Rongsheng, aside from attending classes, he spent most of his time away from the academy and rarely took on external missions to exterminate ferocious beasts.
Why would Tang Qingmo suddenly ask about this?
Tang Qingmo smiled meaningfully. "So you're already a third-year student. Even though there's only one year left, I'll be your junior next year—please take care of me~"
!?
"Young Master Tang… what do you mean by that?"
"Today the school informed me that it's almost time to fill out the university application forms. Of course, I'll be applying to Modu Martial Academy."
"..."
Modu Martial Academy and Yanjing Martial Academy were the two most prestigious martial arts institutions in the country. Any student who aspired to become a martial artist would set their sights on one of them!
Even if Tang Qingmo hadn't broken through to become a martial artist yet, as long as his qi-blood was sufficient and his academic results were excellent, he could still get in!
But Lu Tianren felt something was odd.
Tang Qingmo's tone sounded as if he were deliberately telling him!
Was it because he knew Lu Tianren studied at Modu Martial Academy and wanted his advice?
Lu Tianren said, "If Young Master Tang wants to smoothly get into Modu Martial Academy, it would be best to break through and become a martial artist first."
Most martial academies set their admission standards primarily based on qi-blood values. During exams, whether through medication or grueling training, as long as the qi-blood requirement was met, admission was possible.
One of those methods was breaking through to become a martial artist!
Once someone became a martial artist, both their qi-blood limit and skill absorption speed far exceeded those of non-martial artists!
That was why, every year as the college entrance exams approached, news would surface of high school seniors who crippled themselves by overdosing on pills or forcibly breaking through…
But in Lu Tianren's eyes, Tang Qingmo clearly had the capability to become a martial artist!
He just didn't know why Tang Qingmo hadn't done so yet…
"Young Master Tang, if you need someone to assist you—"
"No need." Tang Qingmo shook his head and said with a smile, "Thank you for the offer, but I don't need to break through into a martial artist just yet."
"On the contrary, I plan to enter Modu Martial Academy as a non-martial artist!"
Lu Tianren: ?
Why?
