At the control console in a monitoring room somewhere in the school, a girl with a lollipop in her mouth was smiling as she watched the large screen.

This place was originally an important area that only S-level professors could enter, but the girl was just a C-level ability holder with low powers.

She had borrowed the key to the control room from the old man and was able to monitor the movements of the entire school.

And her target was Han Jin, who was still walking on the road. "Even if you can't see me, I've always been following you," she said.

Even the phone call that Han Jin received was intercepted by the girl, and she quickly tapped on the buttons, seemingly inputting some instructions. "Since that's the case, let me help you out. You owe me a big favor, you know."

The girl, Miju, had her own means. Because of the strong backing behind her, using it to do something minor was not a big deal. After all, if anything went wrong, the old man would take the blame.

All places in the academy that had holographic projection, including classrooms and dormitories, were almost simultaneously replaced by Smile Masked Little Chou, the author of Han Jin's story.

"Now let's bring you a live broadcast. This afternoon at two o'clock, an unknown newcomer to the academy will challenge the strongest C-level team, the Thunder & Flame Legion. Let's witness this process together while mourning for him." Miju had actually wanted to do this for a long time, but she didn't have a suitable reason. This time, she secretly used the school's projection system to promote Han Jin. Even if her grandfather scolded her afterwards, she didn't care.

In her story, Miju compared Han Jin to an E-level insignificant pawn, while he was about to challenge the so-called strongest C-level team, the Thunder & Flame Legion.

Originally, this was just a small matter, but it spread to every corner of the academy, catching everyone's attention. The projection followed Han Jin's every step, allowing everyone to watch the live scene in real-time.

"Who is this guy? Why have I never seen him before?" Some students in the academy started to pay attention to this matter. They were familiar with the reputation of the Thunder & Flame Legion.

At this moment, in the classroom of Class D1, the giant screen at the center of the podium suddenly switched to a live broadcast.

"Hey, Yang Qian, look at this. Isn't this the guy we met last time? He really doesn't know what's good for him, actually provoking that guy from the Thunder & Flame Legion." A teenager with yellow hair stared at the screen and couldn't help but mock Han Jin's actions.

But Yang Qian's reaction was different. Remembering how the other easily withstood all of his attacks, Yang Qian felt a chill run down his spine. This guy was definitely not ordinary.

The projection naturally reached higher-level classes as well. The lazy teenager with a smile always on his face tapped his companion next to him, who was wearing black-framed glasses, and asked, "Lao Meng, what do you think?"

Meng Yan merely glanced at him lightly and then returned his attention to his book. "What's there to pay attention to in such a thing? We can't be too sure even against guys like the Thunder & Flame Legion. Although I admire his courage, it's not a wise decision to be recklessly impulsive."

The lazy teenager didn't quite agree with his friend's view. Yun Zhou, this person, always liked to bet, although he had never won against this old friend of his. But this time, he had a premonition that he would win. "Lao Meng, how about we make a bet? Hmm... I bet this guy will win. The wager will be the priority to choose our task assignment for the age assessment a month later. How about it?"

Looking at the excited Yun Zhou, Meng Yan adjusted his glasses and calmly said two words, "No bet."

Yun Zhou was stunned for a moment. The other party was not playing along with the usual routine. "Lao Meng, you bastard."

The live projection also reached the Thunder & Flame Legion's team.

"Hehe, someone actually publicized this and turned it into a live broadcast," Guo Yu was somewhat annoyed. It was clear that someone wanted to ride their coattails and gain some popularity.

Lei Lie sat on a large rock, closing his eyes to meditate. "Doesn't matter, no matter how much he jumps around, the outcome is already determined. It's a good opportunity for those people to see the consequences of provoking us. I want him to never be able to turn his life around!"Liang You leaned against a big rock and glanced at the people present with dead fish eyes. "Um... since there are already so many people guarding here, can I go have lunch first?"

"Xiao You, you're thinking of running away again. Guo Yu, keep an eye on him and don't let him slip away," Lei Lie knew what he was thinking with just a glance.

Liang You could only sigh helplessly. Today was the first day of the release of the Red Blue Diva's new song. He didn't expect to have such a mess on his hands.

Miju sat in the control room, looking at the screen with a delighted expression. "I feel like the momentum is still not big enough. Oh, I have an idea! Anyway, the old man is so rich, even if he loses, it doesn't matter."

A brilliant idea flashed through her mind. As long as nothing illegal was done within Hero Academy, everything was allowed, and gambling happened to fall into that category.

Anonymous gambling was not qualified for her own account, but she could use the old man's. Miju smirked and initiated anonymous gambling using her grandfather's account.

The odds of the anonymous soldier and the Lei Lie Legion were naturally completely unmatched. Han Jin had odds of 1 to 20, while the Lei Lie Legion had odds of 1 to 1.

Han Jin didn't know that he was now being used by Miju to make money, otherwise, he would definitely roll his eyes.

"It's interesting. Anonymous gambling has been initiated." Many students who were previously uninterested in this matter also joined in one after another.

The number of bets increased rapidly. Although they knew that betting on Lei Lie couldn't earn much, in the eyes of these people, it was definitely a sure and profitable bet.

Some students excitedly bet their entire assets: "Hahaha, this time I'm betting all my belongings on Lei Lie. I'll finally be able to buy the ability weapon I've been dreaming of."

The number of people betting on Lei Lie skyrocketed, quickly surpassing a thousand, with deposits ranging from a few hundred to tens of thousands. It's worth mentioning that there were only two to three thousand students in the entire Hero Academy, and yet one-third of them had already placed their bets.

There were also people betting on Han Jin, but they were just some guys who wanted to try their luck, and the amounts they bet were not much, usually only a couple hundred, and the number of people was sparse.

But at this moment, someone on Han Jin's side suddenly placed a bet, directly with a hundred thousand world coins. It was like a heavy bomb set off ripples within the students.

However, almost everyone thought that the person had gone crazy for money to make such a big gamble, and this hundred thousand was probably going down the drain.

However, everyone didn't know that the person who threw down a hundred thousand world coins was the girl who initiated this anonymous gambling.
