Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 482 - 454 You’re Too Slow, I’ll Wait for You
The old chief had not pursued it, so what could the Dragon Emperor say? Moreover, had Lin Tian really done anything wrong? What good would pursuing it do?
In the end, the old chief casually threw a piece of clothing on Lin Tian, and both the Dragon Emperor and Lin Tian left.
As soon as they were out of the old chief's sight, Lin Tian said shamelessly to the Dragon Emperor, "Dragon Emperor, I just don't get it. I'm so cute, and I'm so handsome. Why don't you understand me? Why do you always have to be against me? Tell me, in our several encounters, haven't they all ended with your complete defeat? From now on, be nicer to me, and we can still be friends."
The Dragon Emperor, seeing Lin Tian's smug look, wanted to beat him up, but with the old chief protecting him, he dared not act. He could only threaten, "Lin Tian, this is Nidhogg, my territory. You'd better behave yourself. If you cause even the slightest trouble on my turf, I have a hundred ways to make you remember me for a lifetime. I want to see how the old chief can protect you in front of everyone."
The Dragon Emperor's words were a reminder to Lin Tian. As the saying goes, "When under another's roof, one must bow their head." Now that Lin Tian was on the Dragon Emperor's turf, he really needed to rein himself in, or even the old chief couldn't help him.
Lin Tian said cheerily, "Dragon Emperor, bye-bye, I'm going back now. I drank so much Dragon Transformation Liquid, I need to digest it. By the way, where's my room?"
The Dragon Emperor pointed in a direction and said, "404 is your room."
Lin Tian quickly scurried away, but as he walked, he always felt like a monkey from the zoo dropped onto the street. Members of Nidhogg saw him and pointed at him as if he were a monkey, smirking and whispering.
"Damn that Dragon Emperor, now I can't help but be furious," Lin Tian cursed in his heart. It was only because the Dragon Emperor had paraded him around that others were pointing and whispering at him.
Amidst all the pointing and whispering, Lin Tian found room 404. It was just big enough to fit a bed and a desk.
Fortunately, there was a set of Nidhogg military uniforms inside, so he didn't have to go out butt-naked.
The Nidhogg uniforms were dark in color, each embroidered with a black dragon. The dragon's head was held high, and the scale known as 'Nidhogg' on its chest was especially distinct.
The uniform was designed by dozens of designers with the purpose of conveying the idea: "A dragon's inverse scale, touching it provokes rage."
As the saying goes, being in the military regrets for two years, not being in it regrets for a lifetime. Every hot-blooded man dreams of being a soldier in uniform, filled with pride and passion.
Lin Tian wore the uniform properly and solemnly, looking at himself in the mirror, he suddenly felt a sense of responsibility, the duty of a soldier, the belief in protecting the country and promoting justice.
Of course, after Lin Tian put on the uniform, there was one most important point that couldn't be erased—the word "handsome!"
A uniform makes a man stand tall, and anyone (of course, there are exceptions) looks slightly more handsome in uniform, and someone as naturally good-looking as Lin Tian looked even more handsome.
Lin Tian was still admiring his own attractiveness in the mirror when suddenly, he felt a wave of superpower fluctuation.
Then, something miraculous happened—Lin Tian felt an invisible hand desperately pulling at his clothes. Before Lin Tian could protect his clothes, his jacket was ripped off.
Lin Tian activated his Ox Power Technique, clenched his fists, and turned to look but didn't see the thief. However, his military uniform suddenly disappeared. What was going on, were there ghosts?
Then, something even more ridiculous happened—the invisible hand appeared again, this time pulling at his pants.
Lin Tian clung desperately to his pants. Nidhogg's pants were indeed very sturdy, enduring a strong pull without tearing.
Soon, Lin Tian discovered the source of the superpower, right outside his door.
It seems someone was playing a prank on me, Lin Tian thought to himself.
He then opened the door, didn't even look, and gathered a Fireball in one hand, firing it directly in the direction of the Ability Source.
The invisible hand instantly disappeared, and then Lin Tian heard a scream.
"It's on fire, it's on fire, help me, help...!"
Then, several voices chimed in simultaneously, apparently trying to put out a fire.
This was obviously a group of people ganging up to bully Lin Tian. He hadn't even finished admiring his handsome reflection when these people started messing with him. Filled with anger, Lin Tian walked out.
Not far from the door stood four members of Nidhogg, with one having his face burnt by Lin Tian, his clothes mostly destroyed, and his hair singed, but fortunately, apart from some minor burn injuries to certain parts, he was relatively unharmed.
This man, Wang Lifeng, a Spiritual Warrior with the strength of Mirror Breaking, had Telekinesis as his superpower. It was he who had just played the prank on Lin Tian, and he deserved what he got from Lin Tian.
In the military, soldiers are passionate and straightforward, with no scheming or manipulation, which is fundamentally different from businessmen.
Thus, outsiders often think that soldiers are short-tempered and businessmen are more congenial.
This perspective is incorrect. When you see a soldier smiling, he's genuinely smiling, but when you see a businessman smile, he might have already set a trap awaiting your fall.
Wang Lifeng is a straightforward person. He shouted, "You're quite ruthless, kid. I was just teasing you, and you dared to burn me."
Lin Tian laughed and said, "Teasing me? I'm not a three-year-old kid. Using that word doesn't seem quite right, does it!"
Stepping forward from behind Wang Lifeng was a tall man named Li Chong, standing at 1.9 meters, sturdy and dark-skinned with a muscular body, clearly a power-based type.
Li Chong said, "Nidhogg has its own rules. You're new here, and on your first day, you have to go through the ritual by all of us. After that, we're brothers; we all went through it, and you're no exception."
This rule was known to Lin Tian, just like in "Yu Zui," where on the first day you get beaten up, but there are exceptions. On the second day, Yu Zui became the second in command because, well, Yu Zui was awesome!
Lin Tian also wanted to be like Yu Zui, but he aimed to do even better. While Yu Zui got beaten up on his first day, Lin Tian didn't want to be ridiculed. Instead, he wanted to ridicule them.
Why did Lin Tian dare to think this way, to challenge the rules? Because he was even more awesome than Yu Zui!
He said to Li Chong, "Although I'm a newcomer, I don't want to go through the ritual. Tell me, how can I avoid it?"
"It's simple, defeat us. I won't step up, if I did, it would be bullying. Second brother, your turn."
Li Chong pointed to a person behind him named Zhang He, a Mirror Breaking strongman, whose superpower was fire.
Lin Tian advised, "From the sounds of it, you're the leader of these four people, the most powerful. I suggest you come forward yourself, don't send your men to their doom."
While Lin Tian spoke calmly, Zhang He was not pleased. He stepped forward and asked, "What do you mean, rookie? Looking down on me, huh? I just saw you burn my fourth brother, and your superpower must be fire, which coincidentally is also my superpower. Why don't we compare, dare you?"
"I dare, but don't regret it," Lin Tian advised again.
Zhang He confidently said, "Regret, and I'm your grandson. Big brother, bring more water. When I light him up, you'll need to quickly douse him to save him; otherwise, if a life is lost, we can't explain it away."
Lin Tian replied, "Don't worry, I'll try to go easy and certainly won't burn you to death."
Lin Tian and the four arrived at the basketball court, standing face to face, twenty meters apart, with a large crowd gathered around to watch the excitement. Although Lin Tian had only been at Nidhogg for less than three hours, thanks to the Dragon Emperor, everyone recognized him.
"Isn't that the bare-butt kid?"
"Right, how did he end up here? The captain let him off that easily?"
"Bare-butt kid has some skills, daring to face Zhang He alone. When I was new, Zhang He had tormented me badly, I still have a scar on my buttocks!"

"Hahaha...."
Listening to people calling him "bare-butt kid" all around, Lin Tian felt angered. Were it not for that damned Dragon Emperor, he wouldn't be talked about like this.
Zhang He sighed deeply and said, "Let's start, huh!"
Then, he spread his palms, his Ability Source erupted, readying to gather a fireball in his palms.
Zhang He targeted Lin Tian with his gaze and was stunned. He noticed Lin Tian just standing there, unmoved, showing no intention of activating his Ability Source.
The people of Nidhogg were all noblemen, so Zhang He wasn't surprised. He contained his Ability Source and said to Lin Tian, "Hey, why aren't you activating your Ability Source? Are you giving up?"
Lin Tian quickly shook his head and replied, "No no no, how could I possibly give up? I was just waiting for you. I saw you were gathering fireballs so slowly that I thought I'd wait for you. No problem, take your time, I'm not in a rush."
"You dare say I gather fireballs slowly?" Zhang He felt like he was slapped in the face. He quickly said, "New guy, you're too arrogant. I don't need you to wait, let's see who can gather fireballs faster."
"You said it!"
As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, a fist-sized fireball appeared in his palm.
Zhang He was shocked and frantically drove his Ability Source. By the time he formed a fist-sized fireball, Lin Tian's fireball was already the size of a basketball.
By the time Zhang He's fireball became as large as a basketball, Lin Tian's fireball had already grown over a meter in diameter.
The huge fireball spun swiftly on Lin Tian's fingertips, looking spectacular.
"So fast, so flashy!"
Zhang He couldn't help but exclaim.
"Nice!"
"Bare-butt kid, that fireball play is sick, thumbs up!"
"Faster, faster, make the fire bigger!"
…, ….
The surrounding crowd voiced their admiration.
