Without any surprises, Ning Cheng failed to qualify and was eliminated from the group stage.
"Hehehe, Ning Cheng couldn't even qualify, I wonder how Wu'an University will compete."
Last ti, Director ng went to see Director Shi and got a cold reception, so this ti he simply didn't go.
He would wait until the competition ended, then let Director Shi humbly co to ask for his help.
After Ning Cheng was eliminated, the remaining male students from Wu'an University were also eliminated one after another.
These students, who were not fast swimrs to begin with, combined with the nervousness from the sizable crowd today, failed to perform well, which was one of the reasons.
"Have all the students from Wu'an University been eliminated?"
Director ng approached Wang Yongqiang, who thought for a mont with squinted eyes.
"Seems like there's one left, the one who swims dog paddle."
"Hahaha, that's as good as a total wipeout. As soon as that dogpaddler finishes his race, I'll go look for Director Shi. Hehe, now he'll have to return to school with nothing to show."
"Wu'an University is just a bunch of trash, the students are trash, and so are the teachers. Director ng, why do you always target that trashy director?"
"What do you know? Back when I was young, Shi and I were both eyeing the sa woman, but I ended up the tragic one. That woman, ridiculously, followed Shi. This ti, I must make Shi look ridiculous, and let that silly woman realize how foolish she was for not choosing back then."
It turns out that Director ng and Director Shi actually had such a history, no wonder ng constantly targeted Shi.
Quickly, the competition reached the tenth group, and Lin Tian entered the arena.
He was the last contestant from Wu'an University; if he were to be eliminated, then not a single person from Wu'an University would make it to the finals.
This had never happened in the history of previous swimming competitions, and as the head of the sports delegation, Director Shi would certainly face criticism from the school authorities if he returned with such results.
"Go Lin Tian! Go Lin Tian!"
This swimming competition had dozens of spectators from Wu'an University, and as soon as they saw Lin Tian appear, they imdiately started cheering loudly.
Feng Jiabao was the loudest among them.
"Hey! This guy seems to have so influence at Wu'an University."
Director ng suddenly felt a bit uneasy.
"Don't worry, Director ng, how fast can a guy who only knows how to dog paddle swim?"
Hearing Wang Yongqiang's words, Director ng also felt he was overthinking it.
All ten boys took their positions.
"Shhh—" The whistle sounded, and all ten boys plunged into the water simultaneously.
Lin Tian remained the focus of everyone's attention, not because his posture was cool but because it was the most shocking.
He jumped into the pool straight as a javelin, standing upright.
The splash he created was a full two ters high!
"Hahaha, that guy is hilarious. Just with the start, he's probably already ten ters behind everyone else."
"Shi is finished this ti."
Seeing Lin Tian's performance, Director ng felt he had the win in the bag.
But soon, he widened his eyes in disbelief.
Not only him, but all the spectators watching the swimming competition were taken aback.
In the pool, a huge splash was moving forward at a very fast pace, the speed and splashing of the water making it seem as if soone had entered the swimming pool with a motorboat.
He easily surged to the first place, turned around at the halfway point, and led all the way, comfortably winning first place.
"Lin Tian! Lin Tian!"
"Lin Tian!"
Under Feng Jiabao and other Wu'an University students' leadership, more and more people shouted Lin Tian's na.
"This guy actually took first place with dog paddle, and his speed was so fast. I thought for a mont there was a motorboat in the pool."
Wang Yongqiang was dumbfounded, his earlier arrogance gone.
Director ng's face grew even darker; he didn't need to watch the finals. This kid who swam dog paddle was bound to be first. Who could swim faster than a motorboat? Only this freak, right?
The cheering gradually subsided as the preliminaries ca to an end.
Then ca the highlight of the competition, the finals of the n's swimming race.
All the students who entered the finals were already in position.
Sitting in the stands, Director ng's face was pale, he didn't even notice when Wang Yongqiang had left.
The finals began, and this ti, from the start, the swimming hall erupted with cheers as loud as a tsunami.
"Lin Tian! Lin Tian! Lin Tian..."
There were no surprises in the result, Lin Tian once again dominated and won first place, becoming the champion.
When the referee announced the result, the swimming hall erupted with chants for Lin Tian.
"Well done, Lin Tian. When we get back to school, I'll give you a bonus."
Director Shi was grinning from ear to ear, he praised Lin Tian and then confidently went looking for the people from Wu'an Sports University.
"Where's your Director ng?"
"He was just here a while ago, don't know where he went. Do you need sothing with our Director ng?"
"No, nothing. Just pass a ssage to Mr. ng, from now on, he better hide in the Sports University like a good turtle, and not co out to embarrass himself."
It seed that several students from the Sports University knew about the bet between Director ng and Director Shi. Hearing Director Shi call their Director ng a turtle, none of them said a word in response.
"Lin Tian, you're so cool, I just knew you'd be first. Geez, you've really stolen the spotlight this ti. I noticed several beauties in the stands shouting your na; they must have been conquered by you."
Feng Jiabao and several dorm mates surrounded Lin Tian, all smiling broadly.
He Qianqian and Bu ngting had also co by; Bu ngting's competition had finished early and she had already changed out of her swimsuit.
"Lin Tian, you're really aweso!"
"Lin Tian, you really are the best!"
The two won stood on either side of Lin Tian, arousing the envy of those around them.
"To celebrate my first-place win, let's have a big feast tonight. I'll treat everyone!"
Lin Tian had won the championship, and Director Shi had promised to give him a private bonus of ten thousand yuan.
"Great!"
Everyone cheered in unison.
Lin Tian was about to enter the changing room to get dressed, while the others waited for him outside.
Just as Lin Tian had put on his pants and was about to put on his shirt, a sudden unexplainable palpitation caused him to stop in his tracks.
Not only was he uneasy, but his chest also ached, as if his heart was being clenched by soone's hand, slowly tightening—the suffocating sensation nearly overwheld Lin Tian.
"What's going on? Could it be?"
Lin Tian's face paled slightly, he hurriedly threw on his clothes and rushed out!
Lin Tian quickly exited the changing room and saw Feng Jiabao and the others, but He Qianqian and Bu ngting were nowhere to be seen.
Before, the two won had still been with Feng Jiabao and the others.
"Lin Tian, if you're treating us tonight, we must go to the Golden Dragon Hotel."
Seeing Lin Tian co out, Feng Jiabao imdiately greeted him with a smile.
The Golden Dragon Hotel was a high-end restaurant, clearly intending to have a good al at Lin Tian's expense.
However, Lin Tian's mind was not on this at the mont, he urgently asked:
"Have you seen Bu ngting and He Qianqian?"
"Is He Qianqian that beauty with Bu ngting? They were just here."
Feng Jiabao scratched his head. Before Lin Tian entered the changing room, they were all together. But as soon as Lin Tian went in, Bu ngting and that beauty had gone aside to talk. After all, that beauty wasn't well acquainted with Feng Jiabao and the others.
"Where?"
Lin Tian's tone changed, and he grabbed Feng Jiabao's collar.
At this mont, Lin Tian's eyes were filled with violence, scaring Feng Jiabao. He pointed with his index finger in a direction.
"They were just over there before."
Lin Tian released Feng Jiabao's collar and darted toward that spot.
But there was no sign of Bu ngting and He Qianqian.
"Lin Tian, what happened?"
Although Feng Jiabao felt uncomfortable being grabbed by the collar by Lin Tian, he could tell Lin Tian seed really anxious.
"Bu ngting and He Qianqian are missing, they must be in danger."
"It can't be. They were just here, what danger could there be? Why don't you try calling them?"
As an onlooker, Feng Jiabao's first thought was to call the two won. Perhaps the won really went to the restroom.
However, Lin Tian was certain that sothing had happened to the won, and that the calls wouldn't go through. Still holding onto a slim hope, he dialed Bu ngting's phone.
There was no answer.
Then he called He Qianqian's mobile.
This ti as soon as he called, he heard He Qianqian's phone ringtone; it was nearby.
Following the ringtone, Lin Tian easily found a bag.
It was a ladies' handbag, one Lin Tian was familiar with, as he had bought it for He Qianqian.
"This is He Qianqian's bag. They definitely ran into trouble."
Now Feng Jiabao fell silent, the people were missing and the bag was on the ground.
Even if they went to the restroom, they wouldn't leave their bag behind.
"Lin Tian, should we call the police?"
"No need, I'll find them."
At this point, the competition was over, and the audience had begun to leave; Lin Tian couldn't determine where Bu ngting and the others had been taken.
Holding He Qianqian's bag, he found a corner and took out three coins.
Without any visible action, the three coins began to spin rapidly like tops.
But when the coins stopped, Lin Tian's frown deepened.
"I can't divine their location."
This was the second ti the divination had failed. The first ti was with Luo Li.
Could it be another superpowered individual had appeared and taken Bu ngting and He Qianqian?
With the divination failing, Lin Tian couldn't find any clues to search for Bu ngting and He Qianqian.
He was extrely anxious.
"Damn it, why target Bu ngting and He Qianqian? Just after taking down Luo Li, another superpowered individual appears? Is this a coincidence?"
No, it wasn't a coincidence.
Lin Tian suddenly rembered that when he had killed Luo Li, a gray Ability Energy Sphere had erged from Luo Li's body.
At that ti, the Supernatural Ability System had alerted him, but Lin Tian hadn't been able to catch that Ability Energy Sphere. It was too fast, and Lin Tian couldn't catch up.
