Chapter 206 - 153: Talk about Loyalty!_3

In this world, there are no coincidences. If something happens, there must be a reason for it.

So, Long Yi decisively sought answers from the vast ocean of books.

Not every part of the academy library is accessible; each floor has power strength restrictions. You must have a corresponding Fighting Aura level to enter higher floors. They say these restrictions are to prevent students from attempting to learn more advanced content without a solid foundation.

Long Yi decided to search for the answer through the academy’s history. But what puzzled him was that the history section was on the 45th floor. Was it that important? Only those with two Dragon Marks could see it. Such Dragon Knights, who possess two Dragon Marks, are considered medium-strength in the Legion, always busy with their combat training. Striving to become the main forces, even if they squeeze out some time, they would certainly dedicate it to improving themselves. Who would have the time to research the academy’s history?

Long Yi had climbed more than twenty floors when he suddenly paused mid-step, scratching his head. The more he thought about it, the stranger the situation seemed. He had an inexplicable premonition that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Yet, the more he had this feeling, the more he was unable to leave.

Who wouldn’t be curious!

"Bro, are you all right?" A young man patted Long Yi’s shoulder.

Long Yi turned around to see a handsome young man of average height smiling at him.

"No, I’m just troubled," Long Yi said without hesitation, seeing the other’s benign look. Yes, he was troubled.

"Do you need some materials from the higher floors? I’m afraid I can’t help, as we’re not allowed to take books from floor to floor," said the young man apologetically.

"No, no, I’m just..."

"Can’t you see? This silly kid isn’t strong enough to go higher!" A brawny man came up from behind, draped his arm over the young man’s shoulder and looked at Long Yi with a sneer.

This guy, he’s tall!

To Long Yi’s surprise, the big man was about the same height as him, and he had bulging muscles! Though Long Yi was strong, he was like a car compared to this man’s tank. The stairs were wide, yet this man nearly took up half!

"Wow, look at those muscles!" Long Yi admired the man’s arms, which were almost as thick as his own thighs.

"Ha! You’re quite tall but have a good eye!" Upon hearing Long Yi’s admiration, the big man visibly perked up.

Only tall?! Long Yi shed silent tears. He had always been referred to as a big guy, and it was quite a shock to find someone overshadows him.

"Yeah, I guess I’ll always be just this tall," Long Yi said with a sigh, straightening himself. Suddenly, he was two fingers taller than the burly man.

Apparently, the other man noticed his straightening.

"Well, tall for nothing!" The big man straightened himself up too. To his surprise, even after doing this, he was still a finger shorter than Long Yi!

"Ha ha, thankfully I’ve still got some height," said Long Yi. He had conclusively lost when it came to muscle size, but at least on height, he could save face.

For an unknown reason, Long Yi felt a bit sad. After all, he was a Giant by heritage! Shouldn’t he be standing head and shoulders above the rest? He had lost to a Tiger Whale warrior, but now being looked down upon by a human, what kind of plot twist was this?

This has to be my mother’s fault!

He didn’t quite know what was going on, but he had an odd feeling that his mother was behind it all. She must have sealed some transformation system of his. Otherwise, at a critical moment, he would simply need to yell "Shi Wa Sha!" and a giant with an egg on its forehead would fly down from a hundred thousand kilometers away to kick this scum to death.

Forget it, enduring small insults was a virtue. The punishment for fighting in the library was severe, and Long Yi didn’t dare break the law.

Giving the big man a Dynamic Light Wave in his mind, Long Yi shook his head and continued climbing. The barrier posed no problem for him, and he easily passed through.

The young man behind him watched Long Yi pass successfully and shot a look at the big man. The big man muttered, "Just luck."

"It’s not about luck. Can’t you stop making enemies everywhere you go?" The young man shrugged off the brawny man’s arm.

"Me making enemies? I’m just stating the facts." The big man chuckled.

"Our school has no shortage of brutes, but there aren’t that many as tall this guy. Moreover, I don’t know many of them. This guy may well be the Long Yi we’ve heard about in the junior grades. If so, you might not be able to beat him in a contest of strength," the young man said.

"Me?! Me not able to?!" The big man touched his nose, his face full of astonishment.

"Yes, you might not be able to," the young man said slowly, then easily passed through the barrier.

"Ridiculous! I’ve never met anyone who could best me in strength!" The brawny man roared, and a strange energy condensed in the air around him. He was so scared that his hair stood on end, and he quickly held his mouth shut, not daring to make a sound. After a while, the energy dissipated, and the brawny man finally dared to breathe.

"My dear mother, that scared me. There are so many prohibitions in this library, and this thing hurts for days if it hits you," said the brawny man, trembling.

"Look at you, wimp!" The young man laughed.

"Me, a wimp? You try it if you dare! This isn’t anything ordinary, it’s the Power of Rules, no resistance is possible, and it intensifies the pain. Dare to defy it!" said the big man.

"He..." The young man pointed ahead.

The big man looked up to see a bright arc of electricity wrapped around Long Yi’s wrist. Long Yi was frowning, staring at the arc in a daze. (To be continued.
