After listening to Lu Yin, Zhang Ding Tian and Bai Xue looked at each other. What this person said wasn't wrong; if he were also a trial participant, he wouldn't do something so strenuous and ungrateful.
"I actually suspect someone," Lu Yin said again, staring at Bai Xue, "Liu Shao Ge."
Zhang Ding Tian and Bai Xue were surprised. "Why?"
"His location in Hubei is marked in blue, you should know what that means," Lu Yin said indifferently.
Bai Xue denied, "My Northeast, including Zhoushan and Jinling, are all blue. That doesn't explain anything."
Lu Yin looked at Bai Xue, "You are one of the top three saints and possess the strength to kill trial participants. Jinling was only saved because of me, otherwise it would have been controlled by the students. Liu Shao Ge is one of the lower four saints, similar to Zhoushan. Where would he get the strength to resist those students? Take a look yourselves; there isn't just one trial participant in Hubei."
Bai Xue wanted to retort, but the words caught in her throat. Lu Yin was right; Liu Shao Ge didn't have the strength of the top three saints and couldn't possibly resist those students.
Zhang Ding Tian pondered and retracted his blade. "Without evidence, you can't convict someone. That applies to you, and it applies to Liu Shao Ge as well." With that, he left.
Bai Xue glanced at Lu Yin, a complex look in her eyes, and then departed.
Granny walked to Lu Yin's side, doubtfully asking, "Was it really that Liu Shao Ge who released the information?"
"How would I know?" Lu Yin said casually.
Granny glared at him. "Then why did you sound so certain just now?"
Lu Yin gave Granny a sidelong glance as if she were an idiot. "If I didn't sound certain, how would they believe me? When throwing blame, you have to be decisive and accurate. You don't even understand this? You've learned nothing all these years." With that, he landed at his residence.
Granny's face was unpleasant. Throwing blame? This bastard was indeed despicable.
Granny anonymously sent a message that directly spread throughout the Local Area Network. Many students who were originally engaged in a fierce battle in Europe immediately rushed towards India.
Erde and Haidi An hurriedly clarified, saying they were just passing by and only fought the Indian Monk because they bumped into him. But no one believed such words, and more and more students appeared in India.
In the following days, Lu Yin watched the Local Area Network like watching a movie in peacetime. A long list of notifications kept appearing: who was defeated by whom, who died..., and some students also flew from the Americas across the ocean to this side, but many were eaten by mutated beasts at sea. For a while, the notification messages on the Local Area Network never stopped.
It wasn't until five days later that Erde and Haidi An were cleared of suspicion. The fugitive's belongings were not in India. Immediately, many students turned their attention to the capital.
Lu Yin sighed. What was supposed to come eventually would. The lure of the fugitive's belongings wouldn't last long anyway. All the students who dared to participate in the trial were not fools. The capital was the most likely place.
Under this situation, Erde and many students connected and proposed to control the capital and wait for the fugitive. If the fugitive didn't appear within a month, they would all join forces to fight against the second batch of trial participants.
This proposal was echoed by many students.
The tenth-ranked academy in the Starry Sky was about to enter the Canglan Territory. One could imagine that the second batch of trial participants would definitely be extremely strong individuals. Perhaps the second trial was even prepared for those people. Many students were not confident in facing them alone, and Erde's proposal gave them hope.
In an instant, many people responded.
In the capital, Zhang Ding Tian and Bai Xue's expressions were grim. They had also received the news and knew things were not good. In the next half month, the capital would become a battlefield.
Zhang Ding Tian was indeed strong, but even his strength had limits. Moreover, he lacked combat skills. If he were surrounded, he would definitely be unable to protect the capital. Bai Xue was even worse off. Even if the seven saints were gathered, they would be like an ant trying to stop a cart against the numerous students.
The moment Lu Yin learned the news, his expression also turned grim. In this trial, his identity was an Earth native. If he allowed the capital to be controlled, the effect he wanted to achieve would be greatly reduced. Moreover, he had no intention of letting go of that fugitive and the fugitive's remaining belongings. In short, the capital was very important.
"Lu Yin, let's go quickly. The capital definitely can't hold them off," Granny urged Lu Yin anxiously.
Lu Yin's eyes were thoughtful. Currently, the most VIP combat power on Earth was at the level of Zhang Ding Tian and Erde. Zhang Ding Tian was even a bit stronger than Erde. Next, many students would besiege the capital. There would definitely be more than one or two experts at Erde's level. To break this situation, he had to surpass this level. The only way was to increase his combat power. He had to at least increase his combat power to the same level as Erde to compensate for the difference in energy intensity and then use the Heavenly Star Palm to crush them.
Thinking of this, Lu Yin said to Granny in a deep voice, "You stay in the capital, I'll be back in a few days." With that, he flew into the sky.
Granny gritted her teeth. She wasn't stupid; was she supposed to stay in the capital and wait for death?
Just as Lu Yin was about to fly away from the capital, he was stopped by Bai Xue. "You want to escape?" Bai Xue looked at Lu Yin and questioned him.
Lu Yin said in a deep voice, "I will return before the students attack the capital."
"What reason do I have to believe you?" Bai Xue said, her beautiful face full of disdain for Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was indifferent. "There's no need for you to believe me. You can't stop me. Or do you want to have a life-or-death battle with me before fighting the students?"
Bai Xue clenched her fist.
"Let him go," Zhang Ding Tian's voice came, but he didn't appear.
Bai Xue was helpless and landed in the capital.
Lu Yin took a deep look at the capital and then flew away.
Not long after leaving the capital, Lu Yin looked at his personal connection device. "The closest person is you." With that, Lu Yin dashed towards the West.
After Lu Yin left, Granny also came out. She wasn't Lu Yin's servant. If Lu Yin hadn't been watching her, she would have sneaked away long ago. Now was the perfect opportunity.
However, the idea was beautiful but impossible to realize. Granny was very distressed to be stopped by Bai Xue.
"Why are you stopping me?" Granny said angrily.
Bai Xue stared at her coldly. "Just because you are Lu Yin's woman. He's gone, you must stay."
"Who is his woman? Don't talk nonsense!" Granny said angrily.
Bai Xue was helpless against Lu Yin, but dealing with Granny was very easy. In no time, she froze her and threw her into Lu Yin's residence. It took Granny a long time to thaw.
"Bastard Lu Yin, bastard ice woman, bastard natives, unreasonable!" Granny cursed, furious.
Shanxi, the closest to the capital, didn't have any of the seven saints stationed there before, so the strongest person in Shanxi today was no more than Earth rank. Even so, Shanxi still gathered a group of evolved people in Tongcheng, becoming one of the largest bases in all of Shanxi.
Lasse was a very cheerful person, also very easily satisfied. Even though he was the strongest person in the Great Yu Empire's Guerou Academy - the number one below the top students - he had no ambition to complete the mission. He just wanted to occupy a region and mine properly. He only needed to achieve a little bit of result to report his work and had no thoughts of causing trouble.
Lasse had a very happy two-month safe period. At the beginning of his arrival, he used his Tham Realm, no, his Heavenly rank powerhouse status to occupy Tongcheng, becoming the patron saint of Tongcheng, enjoying the worship of countless people. He occasionally helped these poor survivors fight some monsters, and most of the time he lived very comfortably. Especially after discovering a rare mineral resource some time ago, it could make his achievements significantly increase. Thinking of this made Lasse very happy.
Basking in the sunlight and drinking some wine, Lasse narrowed his eyes and hummed a hometown song, "This kind of primitive planet is good, the air is fresh, the folk customs are simple, there's no one to supervise, I can do whatever I want, occasionally discover some precious mineral resources to pan for gold, tsk tsk, this time, it's perfect, hahahaha."
After a while of enjoying himself, Lasse crooked his finger, and two beautiful young women came over. One massaged his shoulders, and the other massaged his legs, conveniently pouring wine for him. Lasse exhaled, "Comfortable."
Just as Lasse raised his glass to his mouth, the sunlight above his head was blocked. Lasse frowned and looked up. What came into view was an ordinary-looking young man, floating in mid-air looking at him. Hmm? Tham Realm?
Lasse's expression became serious. He waved his hand to dismiss the two obviously frightened young women and raised his eyes to the cold man. "Who are you?"
"Robber," the man said two words.
Lasse stared blankly at the man. "What, what did you say? Say it again."
The man was naturally Lu Yin. He only had one way to increase his strength in the shortest time: quickly absorb Star Energy. And robbery was the fastest way. "I said, robber."
Lasse was a little angry. "Boy, looking at you, you're also a trial participant. How can you be so blind? Do you know who your father is before you rob me? Let me tell you, your father—" Before Lasse could finish speaking, a violent pain struck his abdomen. His body was blasted away by a terrifying force, directly slamming into the ground and creating a huge crater.
In the deep pit, Lasse coughed a few times, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His face pale, he looked up. "That was? Void Splitting Palm? What the hell? Where did this monster come from?"
