Wen Xiangjie understood the complex emotions, a mix of anger and schadenfreude, that flashed through Ji Chenyu's eyes.
Sure enough, Ji Chenyu was inextricably linked to the Lin family.
The only information Wen Xiangjie wanted from Ji Chenyu was this; as for any love-hate entanglements between Ji Chenyu and the Lin family, she couldn't care less.
"Wen Xiangjie, is there some misunderstanding between us? I..."
Ji Chenyu eagerly tried to explain something, but Wen Xiangjie impatiently gestured for him to stop.
"You don't need to explain; I'm not interested in listening," she said, giving Ji Chenyu a malicious smile. "Save your explanations for Wei Zicheng, though I doubt he'll listen either."
Ji Chenyu's pupils suddenly constricted.
Wen Xiangjie actually discovered what he had done to Wei Zicheng!
How was this possible? When he used his talent on Wei Zicheng, it was clearly just the two of them.
Even Wei Zicheng himself hadn't noticed that he had used his talent on him, so how did Wen Xiangjie know?!
If Ji Chenyu had previously thought Wen Xiangjie was merely a lucky person who had gained a 'golden finger,' feeling only jealousy and hatred towards her.
At this moment, looking at the malicious smile on Wen Xiangjie's face, Ji Chenyu felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart for the first time.
Since it was confirmed that Ji Chenyu and she were absolutely hostile, Wen Xiangjie naturally couldn't allow Ji Chenyu to continue developing.
She wanted to make Ji Chenyu's progress in this game instance incredibly difficult, to make him rank last in this game instance, to prevent him from receiving any rewards after the game instance ended, and to devalue him to the lowest point.
This way, after leaving the game instance, when she reported Ji Chenyu's situation to the First Military Academy, it would also strengthen the First Military Academy's resolve to abandon Ji Chenyu.
Wen Xiangjie suddenly took out a stack of spare epic cards from her card drawer.
Dozens of epic cards were lightly poured onto the table by Wen Xiangjie, like a purple rain falling.
All the advanced duelists in the Gladiator Tower Master's lounge looked at this purple rain, their eyes full of admiration, fanaticism, and longing.
So many epic cards! They had never seen such beautiful rain in their lives!
"Want them?" Wen Xiangjie leaned back in her chair and asked with a smile.
"Yes!"
All the advanced duelists shouted loudly, their eyes unable to leave the table full of epic cards.
Fortunately, they still had their rationality and knew that Wen Xiangjie, who could easily produce dozens of epic cards, was someone they couldn't afford to provoke; otherwise, they probably wouldn't have been able to resist rushing forward to snatch them.
"It's simple to get them," Wen Xiangjie extended her right index finger towards Ji Chenyu. "You go initiate a forced battle against him. As long as the battle is exciting enough, you can pick one epic card to take. I'll cover the card needed to initiate the forced battle for you."
Wen Xiangjie emphasized the word "exciting."
Those who could become advanced duelists were not fools and immediately understood the meaning behind Wen Xiangjie's words.
Ji Chenyu looked up at Wen Xiangjie in disbelief.
What did she mean by this? To have others humiliate him?
Ji Chenyu had already accepted the fact that Wen Xiangjie had seen through him and was prepared to have all his cards forcibly taken by Wen Xiangjie.
It was only the ninth day of the game instance, and he was confident that he could rely on his early experience to make a comeback before the card competition on the last day and reassemble a high-quality deck.
But he hadn't expected that Wen Xiangjie had no intention of personally dealing with him, but instead was willing to offer epic cards as compensation to have others initiate forced battles against him?
"That's right, I just want you to know that you're not worthy of comparing yourself to me," Wen Xiangjie said to Ji Chenyu with a smile, understanding the anger in his eyes.
"You, Gladiator 100, are the weakest in this room. And I, the Gladiator Tower Master, the current owner of this Gladiator Tower, what qualifications do you think you have to fight me? Hmm?"
"No way, no way, you, Gladiator 100, still dream of fighting the Tower Master?" The former 1st, now 2nd, was the first to echo Wen Xiangjie's words, pouting and looking at Ji Chenyu with disdain: "Are you saying that all of us from 1 to 99 are dead?"
"Does the Tower Master need to personally deal with you? For a small ant like you, whom the Tower Master can crush with a single step, you should be grateful that the Tower Master even spoke two words to you alone!"
"Exactly, exactly, we are all very willing to serve the Tower Master and help the Tower Master teach you, this rookie, a good lesson."
"Tower Master, let me do it. I'll definitely give Gladiator 100 a good lesson, making him deeply realize the gap between him and you. I was a teacher before coming to Gladiator Tower; I'm best at teaching these problem students."
"Tower Master, please give me a chance! I'm best at mental torment; I guarantee that after this battle, his mind will have some minor issues."
"Tower Master, please let me do it..."
All the advanced duelists scrambled to pledge their loyalty to Wen Xiangjie, begging her to give them the opportunity to teach Ji Chenyu a lesson.
Wen Xiangjie listened with a smile to the self-introductions of these advanced duelists.
Hadn't Ji Chenyu always been jealous of her, thinking she was nothing special?
If she personally taught Ji Chenyu a lesson, wouldn't that actually elevate him?
She just wanted Ji Chenyu to recognize the difference between her and him, and to recognize what kind of person he was.
He couldn't even defeat these advanced duelists in front of her who were flattering her, respecting her, and being controlled by her!
Let's see how he dares, how he has the nerve to look at her with that disgusting, jealous, and self-important gaze in the future!
"Then you go first. You were a teacher, you have experience." Wen Xiangjie directly threw an epic card to Gladiator 67, telling him to use it to initiate a forced battle against Ji Chenyu.
"Thank you, Tower Master, for the opportunity. Don't worry, I'll definitely perform well!" Gladiator 67 excitedly nodded and bowed to Wen Xiangjie.
When he turned to look at Ji Chenyu, Gladiator 67's expression instantly changed, and he put on a stern face, saying, "The first lesson I'm giving you today is about hierarchy. The Tower Master is the superior, and you are the inferior. You need to recognize your place."
Gladiator 67 picked up the epic card Wen Xiangjie had thrown to him and initiated a forced battle against Ji Chenyu.
Since he was completely exposed, Wen Xiangjie would certainly not let him go, and the epic cards he had painstakingly obtained would inevitably be lost. Ji Chenyu simply gave up, retorting to Gladiator 67.
"What hierarchy? You're willing to kneel, and you insist on dragging others to kneel with you? Just one epic card, and it makes you wag your tail and fawn over her like a lapdog."
