Chapter 170: Chapter 146: You Must Stare Him Down! _2
As haughty as an SR-level Awakener like Long Guocheng, he would definitely not resign himself to defeat, and it was certain he wouldn't move out. If an SR-level person moved out voluntarily instead of the N-level Xiang Beifei, that'd simply be slapping the face of an SR genius.
But Xiang Beifei had to give such a person a proper lesson, which would also make living together more manageable. Now that he possessed the latter stages of Qi-Controlling power, he found it very easy to deal with such a person.
If Long Guocheng caused him trouble again, he would have Xiaohei find an opportunity to take away the system rewards that Long Guocheng exchanged with attention value!
Of course, if a system item was lost after being exchanged, experienced Awakeners would definitely suspect it was stolen, especially an SR Awakener. But as long as the timing was right, the suspicion would not fall on Xiang Beifei himself.
For example, after Long Guocheng had Mr. Yuchi's Old Devil's simulation class. or when Long Guocheng faced an SSR-level Awakener at Liangzhou University, then he could take action.
As long as Long Guocheng suffered at the hands of these people, Xiaohei would collect the delivery, and when the system reward suddenly disappeared, Long Guocheng would definitely suspect the SSR-level individuals and people like Mr. Yuchi the Old Devil, rather than suspecting him, an N-level Awakener.
Although there weren't any SSR-level Awakeners among this year's freshmen, there were still SSR-level seniors and juniors in the second and third years.
If any blind SSR dared to provoke him, Xiang Beifei would definitely treat them as potential suspects for Long Guocheng, and as for taking the SSR's reward, he could act when they were in the Desolate Wilderness.
The Desolate Wilderness was a very strange place. The capabilities of powerful desolate beasts were bizarre and specifically countered human systems. It was quite normal for accidents to occur there, and if a system reward was lost, it would be chalked up to the chaos of the Desolate Wilderness.
Xiaohei was getting better and better at this method of misdirection and package collection.

Long Guocheng was still in the hallway taking in the breeze looking quite annoyed. At that moment, another boy came up from the elevator and immediately noticed Long Guocheng.
This boy was clean and fresh looking, appearing very sunny, but there was a crafty gleam in his eyes, always giving off a somewhat cunning and calculating vibe.
Meng Yuekai, another SR-level Awakener from dorm 404!
"Long Guocheng, why are you outside? Have you driven away that N-level Awakener?" Meng Yuekai asked.
When Long Guocheng heard Meng Yuekai mention Xiang Beifei and recalled how his own heartbeat had accelerated, his face flushed, and he coldly said, "Where have you just been?"
"I talked with Mr. Yuchi about some things, to see if I could apply for the video of that N-level Awakener killing the Triangular Thunder Krait the other day, and then study this N-level Awakener."
"Did you get it?" Long Guocheng asked.
"No," Meng Yuekai shook his head, "Such videos are written into student files, which are highly confidential documents. I've heard they are part of the UR system's security measures. Even though Mr. Yuchi can view them, he cannot disclose them."
Liangzhou University, as one of the nine elite universities, had UR System Awakeners, as each year it awakened one or two such individuals. Liangzhou University hadn't snagged one this year, but over the years, it had recruited several UR Awakeners.
However, these UR Awakeners had too high a talent and soon graduated and went to work for the Jiuzhou Alliance, hardly seen in public. But as alumni, their left-behind security measures were absolutely first-class.
Student records in the school were absolutely confidential, which could be viewed on the spot but not disseminated, and Yuchi Shen could not disclose them.
"Your mood doesn't seem very good, what happened? Did you suffer in there?" Meng Yuekai asked.
"Hmph!"
Long Guocheng narrowed his eyes, his look quite unfriendly.
Meng Yuekai laughed, "Are you struggling to deal with an N-level Awakener? Weren't you the man of the moment in your high school? Besides, aren't you your high school's only SR-level?"
He was a Body Cultivator!"
The mere memory of his own rapid heartbeat when facing Xiang Beifei infuriated Long Guocheng.
"Body Cultivator? Mr. Yuchi and I discussed this; indeed, Body Cultivators have advantages in the Qi-Controlling stage. It's normal for us not to defeat him now. But—I recall that Liangzhou University rules forbid fighting unless faculty members are present. Did he hit you?"
Meng Yuekai looked at Long Guocheng in surprise, and said, "If he attacks you in the dormitory, we can go to the counselor and file a complaint against him. We can get him written up, and that could give us an excuse to kick him out."
Upon hearing this, Long Guocheng's face immediately darkened.
Go to the counselor and file a complaint? Not to mention that it was he who struck first, but asking him, a formidable SR-level master, to admit in front of a counselor that he used his System abilities to pressure an N-level student, resulting in embarrassment?
Where would that leave his dignity as the future Sect Leader of Long Corporation?
"It's none of your business! Keep your nose out of my affairs," Long Guocheng said coldly.
Meng Yuekai vaguely guessed something and smiled, "Alright, I was just saying. Mr. Yuchi refused our request for a dorm reassignment. I can roughly guess his intention, he doesn't like this N-level freshman either."
"Mr. Yuchi doesn't like him either, are you sure?" Long Guocheng frowned.
"During the admission assessment that day, everyone had different opinions, but one thing was consistent: Mr. Yuchi sent him to the outer desolate lands, clearly making it difficult for this N-level freshman. I suspect Mr. Yuchi might know this freshman, or perhaps knows his parents or something. Maybe they had an unpleasant past, or else there was no need to make it so hard for this freshman. Besides, it's said that this N-level freshman completed the task which made Mr. Yuchi look very bad and he received a severe punishment. It seems clear he didn't want the N-level freshman to pass the assessment," Meng Yuekai said, his eyes gleaming with cunning.
"Actually, if you think about it a bit, you will understand why Mr. Yuchi placed an N-level freshman with us three SR-levels. I believe he hoped that we would pressure this N-level freshman and make him embarrassed," Meng Yuekai said, his smile deepening.
"I thought he was a teacher who wouldn't treat his students like this," Long Guocheng said haughtily.
"Haha, then you are wrong," Meng Yuekai replied.
Confidently, Meng Yuekai continued, "Because he is a teacher, and due to his status, he cannot personally take action, he deliberately let us handle it. Mr. Yuchi is known for being fierce, and his classes often strip one of their defenses. He clearly thinks highly of the three of us, that's why he entrusted us with the task of suppressing the N-level freshman. If we succeed, he might appreciate us. Do you understand what I mean?"
Although they were SR-level Awakeners, Yuchi Shen was also an SR, and much more powerful than them, besides being a famous instructor at Liangzhou University.
Now that they had just started their studies and their abilities weren't high enough, if they could gain the favor of someone like Yuchi Shen, not only would his classes be easier, but their future development would also be much better.
Long Guocheng also came to a realization, then fell into thought. After a while, he looked up at Meng Yuekai and said, "I didn't know you were so clever."
"Oh, it's nothing! I was just guessing," Meng Yuekai laughed, "We need to pull Li Zimu into our camp too. With three of us working together, we can definitely make this N-level freshman doubt his life!"
However, Long Guocheng glanced at Meng Yuekai with disdain and said, "Three SRs working together against one N-level? Haha! You don't find it shameful, but I do! I alone am enough!"
He was a proud person, disdainful of the weak, but he also had the pride of an SR!
Three SRs working together to suppress an N-level would be laughed at if word got out; given his status, he disdained to engage in what seemed to be a very dishonorable act.
What he wanted was to crush the psychologically unprepared N-level newcomer with his own "Vision Pressure" in an upright and straightforward manner!
To have his domineering gaze make the N-level newcomer flush with embarrassment and flee in panic!
"You should understand that as long as you want to deal with him, we stand on the same side, right? In a sense, we are still working together; I just need you to cooperate with me at the right moment," Meng Yuekai said.
"You are you, I am I, even if we share the same goal, we each fight our own battles! I prefer to defeat my opponents openly, not stoop to petty tricks," Long Guocheng said proudly.
Long Guocheng turned and walked toward the staircase.
"The dormitory is this way," Meng Yuekai kindly reminded him.
"I'm going for a walk!" Long Guocheng said, annoyed.
Meng Yuekai watched Long Guocheng leave, a strange smile forming on his lips.
"Trouble in Body Cultivation, too scared to return to the dorm?" Meng Yuekai mused to himself, seemingly able to guess anything. He paused for a moment, then turned and headed toward the dormitory.
