After seeing Li Xingyue’s data, Ye Ling decisively chose to remain silent.
With his current strength, he probably couldn’t even fill the gaps between her teeth, so what could he use to resist?
Since resistance was futile, he might as well silently endure it.
After arranging everything, Hong Xiu left directly, leaving only Ye Ling and Li Xingyue.
Watching Hong Xiu leave, Li Xingyue smiled and said, “Alright, Ye Ling, let’s go. I’ll introduce you to your other team members. Don’t worry, they’re all easy to get along with.”
She had heard about Ye Ling, after all, the academy’s website was flooded with news about him.
After communicating with Hong Xiu yesterday, she gained further understanding that Ye Ling’s strength definitely met the second-year standard.
In her team, the strongest was Zhao Siyu, but even Zhao Siyu could only navigate the Second Rank Secret Realm smoothly.
Judging by this strength, Ye Ling and Zhao Siyu shouldn’t differ much, so she was naturally happy to have such an excellent student join her team.
Then, under Li Xingyue’s guidance, the two headed to the place she mentioned.
At this moment, the website was in an uproar.
No one knew who leaked the news, but it was confirmed that Ye Ling had been promoted to the second-year Vermilion Bird Class, a done deal.
Indeed, there was never a shortage of busybodies anywhere.
[Shocking! After much investigation, it has been confirmed by a teacher that Ye Ling will indeed be promoted to the second year!]
Such a headline caused a huge stir on the website.
Previously, people might have only speculated, and not everyone took it seriously.
But now it was confirmed, Ye Ling had indeed moved up to the second year, and was still in the Vermilion Bird Class.
The forum on the website was buzzing with heated discussions.
“Oh my god! How many records is Ye Ling going to set? The first male in the history of Vermilion Bird Academy, the first student to enter the Secret Realm at the start of school, the first to jump a grade within a week of school starting…”
“The person above makes a good point! Unknowingly, Ye Ling has set so many firsts in history.”
“I don’t know why, but Ye Ling is really amazing! I haven’t even seen him in person yet! T^T!”
“Don’t act like we’ve seen him either, I’ve only seen two pictures of him.”
“So envious! He just jumped straight to the second year!”
“What’s there to envy? The second year has a ranking system, if you’re not strong enough, you’ll have a hard time even if you make it to the second year.”
…
A lot of people were discussing this matter. Previously, most of the discussions about Ye Ling on the website were from first-year girls.
But now, with Ye Ling suddenly moving to the second year, it naturally caught the attention of the upperclassmen.
Among them were quite a few second-year and even third-year students, all paying attention to Ye Ling.
One of them was a third-year student Ye Ling knew, Shen Mengyao, whom he had met at the Sky Universe Pavilion.
“Wow! I didn’t expect it. I just met him yesterday, and today he’s already jumped to the second year, and in the Vermilion Bird Class. This Ye Ling is quite interesting!”
Muttering to herself while eating a lollipop, Shen Mengyao was intrigued by the news.
If Shen Mengyao had only been slightly interested in Ye Ling before, now her curiosity about him had grown even stronger.
She wanted to know how Ye Ling had become so powerful, achieving the feat of jumping a grade within just a few days of school starting.
Being able to jump a grade at least proved that Ye Ling had the strength, and entering the Vermilion Bird Class was because of that.
“Ye Ling… you’re becoming more and more interesting, mysterious young man, what will you do next?”
Playing with her pigtails, Shen Mengyao casually closed the website on her computer.
The news also reached Yun Yi, who had come to the Sacred City with Ye Ling.
When she received the news, her mouth slightly opened, her eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
She couldn’t believe that Ye Ling had suddenly accomplished such a feat as jumping a grade.
Moreover, it seemed like he had completed the jump within just a few days of school starting. During the previous assessment, Ye Ling’s strength was still at the First Rank, not much different from her own.
Breaking through to the Second Rank on the airship and successfully contracting the second spiritual pet, Feng Jiu, made Yun Yi feel the gap between them.
But now, Ye Ling had exceptionally been promoted to the second year, also in the Vermilion Bird Class. Ye Ling’s strength must be very strong, otherwise, he couldn’t have entered this class.
The gap between her and Ye Ling was growing, which made Yun Yi feel a bit lost.
But this feeling of loss was only momentary, and Yun Yi quickly regained her composure.
Her eyes gradually became determined, she had to become stronger, she couldn’t be like before, she had to intensify her training.
Clenching her fists tightly, Yun Yi murmured, “No way! I must become stronger too! I can’t let the gap between Ye Ling and me grow bigger! I have to get stronger too!”
