Chapter 171: Le Zi Qian
This Professor Le was an average ly handsome He exuded an erudite and scholarly air that was enhanced by the pair of gold-rilasses pressed up on his nose He had the sort of face that ht, no matter the time It looked like it would be a chore for anyone to intrude upon his own little world
Upon hearing Wu Junyi’s words he nodded ever so slightly, but said nothing
“Look, Professor Le, what do you think? Which students should participate in the coed the competition date on us, and noe have no time to prepare” Wu Junyi complained
Le Ziqian shook his head “There’s no need to be worried about this educational exchange Cold feet solve nothing Besides, our National Scholars are exceptional students As far as I’m aware, that Zhou Qianlin fro Zi Mo and Jie Guangsheng from my own class Those three should be sufficient”
“Alright” Wu Junyi wasn’t interested in discussing the ardless of his own opinions, Le Ziqian was definitely the authority when it came to this
Tan Lingyun was seated next to the brooding intellectual As he spoke her eyes were glued to hiering flash that was hard to pinpoint

Were one to look down upon the NEU ca sea of blue What’s ht not even a drop of water could escape from it
Scores of police and security personnel were on hand to lock down the exits If you weren’t a student or teacher, you weren’t getting in – period
Eventually one o’clock arrived The various members of the orous security check It was a process that everyone had to endure, students included
The NEU’s auditoriu over ten thousand people If necessary, however, it could fit three times as many
At this moment the auditoriuuards for the Poseidon concert, who kept it free of le exception
A red-haired young man was sat comfortably on a chair in the middle of the first row Despite all the chaos outside, he was seated cross-legged like he had not a care in the world His eyes were on the stage in front of him
“A-Jue, why aren’t you here yet? Didn’t A-Li tell you to arrive early? We’ve already set aside a seat for you Later there’ll be a et trarinning with pleasure at the prospect of his friend’s forthco difficulties
“At the door,” Lan Jue’s voice replied
And he was indeed, handing a golden card to the guards blocking passage beyond Once they saw it, they let hireat deal of respect
The moment he stepped in, Lan Jue’s eyes lit up He’d never actually entered the auditorium before – more like an arena, in truth – but he absolutely hadn’t expected it to be like this
In a glance he could confir nue, with three fifty- it in Each were covered top to botto above thehts They were in the shape of various sea fauna; fish, crustaceans, cla one could think of when considering the ocean, was present in soest piece – a thirty-s were made, hoere they even safely suspended like that?
The lighting of the auditoriu fro walls covered in flowers gave everything a soothing blue hue As the lights shone through the shi+ crystals, too, their reflections filled the arena It looked like they were underwater, with reflections of sunlight dancing on the ocean floor
The crystalline figures hung a few dozen , and as Lan Jue cast his eyes around he was convinced there must have been ten thousand orhere and there It was of course the stupendously large whale that especially gave Lan Jue pause Were that thing to fallthe death toll would be staggering
A thick curtain hung heavy over the stage, hiding the contents of the stage from view Every seat he passed on the way forward sported a single blue flower, and a copy of Poseidon’s Sounds of Nature
Each album was a treasure, as far as the common man was concerned Poseidon’s releases always ca around four hundred NED This album would be more expensive, undoubtedly More than ten thousand seats, which iving away for free
Lan Jue shook his head in wonder before he arrived at the front and took a seat beside Chu Cheng
“I’m a teacher here,” Lan Jue co so close to you it could bode poorly I’ll stay a while then move to the back”
Chu Cheng chortled at his friend’s concerns “You think there’ll be space in the back? Stay here, trust me I’ve seen one of Hua Li’s concerts before, and the second it kicks off no one will be able to keep their head No one will be paying attention to you, I proht about your potential troubles, so he set your school lus and Poseidon staff on either side of us, so no one will recognize you
“So be it,” Lan Jue answered grudgingly “I have to say, Poseidon Mediacertainly kno to do these sorts of things But the amount of money they threw in to thisthe whole rest of the school they decorated!”
Chu Cheng chiive the school just to do the performance here would cross your eyes You think all these stuffy suits would let some star take over their school for a concert otherwise, much less attend the for the university – not just because of Hua Li and Poseidon Media’s name, but also the fact that it’s a benefit concert”
Lan Jue shook his head “This guy! It see but worth the effort and hardshi+ps And having to hide every tio out… it looks like even Hua Li is tired of it”
Chu Cheng laughed “What can he do about it? It’s in his blood, a product of heritage If he wants to be rid of it, he’s gunna have to find a woman to birth the next victie Only then will he have the ghost of a chance at a normal life The reputation of the Poseidon line is the product of generations when you think about it, it’s like it has a life of its own, an a”
