Lin Ran didn't reply, instead bringing his eyes close to her pupils and activating the Eternal Mangekyo.
Replication Seal!
Since the divine might inscribed in Luo Qingyan's right eye had been depleted during their time in Black Dragon Abyss, Lin Ran carved another one for her.
After finishing, Lin Ran, who had retreated to his seat, smacked his lips.
"You're just a young girl, how can your mind be full of such nonsense..."
Luo Qingyan only then realized she had misunderstood, and said, both embarrassed and angry,
"Who's full of nonsense?! I'm driving!"
"You almost made me crash into a tree just now, you know?"
"If I had actually crashed, I would have definitely blamed it all on you."
Lin Ran laughed heartily, amused.
"Are you really driving?"
"Don't you realize it yet?"
Luo Qingyan was confused, her face full of bewilderment, not understanding why Lin Ran was laughing.
"Realize what?"
Lin Ran sighed.
"Haven't you noticed that the vehicle's movement and your commands aren't perfectly synchronized?"
"That's because I've been controlling this hovercar's movement all along..."
"Otherwise, with your outrageously terrible driving skills, you would have already crashed into and broken 800 trees!"
Luo Qingyan gasped.
"What? How did you do that?"
Lin Ran smiled without answering, shaking his head proudly.
How did he do it?
It was naturally with the Ope Ope no Mi's room...
The crowd was stirred up, each one filled with determination.
At the same moment.
Number 003, Lu Yuan, with the SSS-rank talent Gale Tide;
Number 004, Lan Ruoqiu, with the SSS-rank talent Withered Bone;
Number 005, Qin Tian, with the SSS-rank talent Silver Moon's Light;
Number 006, Wan Meng, with the SSS-rank talent Crimson Demon Dragon;
Number 007, Bai Ziye, with the SSS-rank talent Soul Severing Demon;
Number 008, Lin Zhaofan, with the SSS-rank talent Blood Lord;
Number 009, Lu Qianqian, with the SSS-rank talent Elemental Spirit Body;
Number 010, Li Xuan, with the SSS-rank talent Void Boundary;
Number 011, Lei Zhan, with the SSS-rank talent Divine Thunder of Destruction;
Number 012, Wu Huanyu, with the SSS-rank talent Dark Night Illusory Moon;
These ten people gathered together, all currently in Qin Tian's villa, staring at each other.
The top twelve special recruits of Yan University, excluding Lin Ran and Luo Qingyan, had all arrived.
Seeing that the inviter, Qin Tian, remained silent, Wan Meng grew impatient.
"Brother Qin, why have you called all of us here?"
"The freshman competition is this afternoon, this is the time for us to conserve our strength and strive for better rankings."
"If there's nothing urgent, I'll take my leave now."
As he spoke, Wan Meng stood up, ready to leave.
Qin Tian finally couldn't sit still and stood up, smiling.
"Brother Wan, don't be in a hurry..."
"I've called you all here to help us strive for higher rankings as much as possible."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhaofan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
"Help us?"
"Brother Qin, have you forgotten that we are also rivals?"
"How can you talk about helping us?"
Qin Tian smiled.
"But above us, aren't there still two Black Dragon Abyss heroes who are seemingly insurmountable?"
As Qin Tian spoke, everyone's gaze shifted to him.
Lin Zhaofan stroked his chin.
"Brother Qin, you mean..."
Qin Tian burst into laughter.
"That's right, that's exactly what I mean."
"After all, Lin Ran and Luo Qingyan's strength might be terrifying, and we might not be able to defeat them."
"We still don't know how the freshman competition will be conducted."
"However, if it doesn't harm our individual interests, and if we have the opportunity, it would be best if we could target those two."
"What do you all think?"
"Of course, this is just a verbal agreement. Everyone can take it as a joke, it has no binding force, and it's certainly not an alliance."
"So, there's no need for everyone to dwell on it."
No one responded, but everyone's face showed signs of contemplation.
Soon, Lin Zhaofan smiled and cupped his fists towards Qin Tian.
"Goodbye, Brother Qin... I will consider what you've said."
With that, he directly walked out of the villa.
Following his lead, the rest of them also said goodbye to Qin Tian and left with rather solemn expressions.
Qin Tian watched their departing figures and smiled with satisfaction.
They had likely taken his words to heart.
But the actual effect would depend on the rules and the execution...
