Chapter 2150: The backstage was invaded?

Ye Ye's sudden distraction was already a common occurrence for Lu Yue. Whenever he saw Ye Ye suddenly freeze and stop talking like this, Lu Yue knew in his heart that Ye Ye was probably thinking about some extremely profound and difficult questions.

To be honest, Lu Yue himself couldn't explain why he felt this way, but he felt that Ye Ye wasn't being pretentious or bluffing, but was genuinely thinking about something crucial. Moreover, the influence of these things was so great that it could even have a significant impact on the entire universe.

However, what is unbelievable is that Ye Ye is just a young man in his twenties! Although his connections are indeed quite extensive and his strength is quite strong, these advantages are only limited to the scope of Qimingxing.

This feeling made Lu Yue feel both novel and wonderful, as if he had discovered a peerless genius hidden under an ordinary appearance, who was quietly exploring those unknown mysteries in his own world.

After a long moment, Ye Ye's brow remained furrowed, as if gripped by an invisible force. Various speculations and hypotheses about Blue Star's uniqueness to the universe kept flashing through his mind, but with so little information at his disposal, these thoughts were like candlelight in the wind, fleeting and difficult to grasp.

In the end, Ye Ye shook his head helplessly and decided to put this headache aside for the time being. He knew that with his current strength and influence, delving into these complex mysteries of the universe was tantamount to wishful thinking. Not only would he have no clue, but it would also only cause him more trouble.

"Forget it, I don't want to."

Ye Ye said to himself.

"Instead of wasting time on this, it's better to focus on recruiting the last team member first."

He took a deep breath, stretched his neck which was a little sore from maintaining the same posture for a long time, then turned to Lu Yue and said.

"Okay, stop staring at me and eat first. After dinner, let's post a thread on the school forum to see if anyone wants to join us. Li Qifeng has really shot himself in the foot this time. Originally, because of their influence, no one might have dared to join us. But now, maybe we can use this opportunity to put together the last piece of the puzzle for the assessment."

Lu Yue listened to Ye Ye's words and nodded in agreement. He also felt that it was more important to build the team first.

"Okay, but do we really not need to report what just happened to the school?"

Lu Yue's voice was slightly hesitant, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes. After all, although Li Qifeng was the one who instigated the incident, from the entire process, Ye Ye did not seem to be a pure "victim." On the contrary, in just a few minutes, Li Qifeng was actually hung outside the school gate. This was really unexpected.

Moreover, Ye Ye had not informed Li Lingzhi, Cui Yingying, Tian Qi and other bigwigs, which made Lu Yue even more uncertain. He couldn't help but worry, if the school knew about this, would it have a negative impact on them?

However, Ye Ye seemed very calm, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.

"Report? Bullshit report!"

There was a hint of disdain in his tone.

"We are the real victims! I'm already being polite by not asking the school for an explanation. Do you really expect me to take the initiative to report it?"

Ye Ye paused and continued.

"Besides, Tian Qingtian is watching right next to us. Do you think she won't tell Tian Qi about this? Don't worry, Li Qifeng is going to suffer this loss in silence. He definitely won't dare to make a big deal out of this."

Ye Ye's lips curled up slightly, revealing a nonchalant smile, as if he didn't care about what was happening. However, this was just a disguise on the surface, as he actually had a complete plan in mind.

If Ye Ye hadn't worried about causing too much trouble and unnecessary attention, he wouldn't have chosen to act so high-profile. He was no longer the rash, reckless young man who had just started out. After years of experience, he had become more mature and stable, and he knew how to weigh the pros and cons in complex situations.

However, if he didn't demonstrate his strength and edge at this moment, things would become extremely difficult in the future. Faced with those who were eyeing him covetously, such as the still-unclear Qiao'er, the sinister Ning Dan, those forces who were very likely already secretly investigating him, and the Ning family's ambiguous attitude, Ye Ye knew that he had to take decisive action.

So, after careful consideration, Ye Ye decided to use Li Qifeng as an example to scare the monkeys. This way, he could give a warning to those who had bad intentions towards him, and also buy himself more time and space.

As for Ying and the others, Ye Ye had invited them to appear today, simply to give it a try. He knew that Li Tiandao was undoubtedly observing his every move from somewhere, and that this powerful figure might possess some confidential information that he couldn't access. By allowing Ying and the others to appear, he could not only demonstrate his strength but also provide a double insurance policy.

"Okay, as long as you have a good idea in your mind!"

Lu Yue looked at Ye Ye's confident face, and the uneasiness in his heart was slightly relieved. After all, in this situation, he really couldn't think of what else he could do. He could only choose to trust Ye Ye and follow him.

Before long, the two of them were full of food and wine. Ye Ye did not forget Ying and the others who had just made an effort. He turned around and gave Liu Zhuangshi an order.

"Go bake some more delicious food and I'll send it to Ying and the others."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhuangshi immediately nodded in response and turned around to get busy.

Soon, a large wave of delicious food, filled with fragrance, was delivered to the Contract Spirit Space. Ying and her group were numerous, and there were many people watching outside, so they didn't clamor to go out for some fresh air. For them, the Contract Spirit Space was the most comfortable place, and Ye Ye naturally wouldn't force them.

After everything was settled, Ye Ye and Lu Yue stood up and prepared to return to the academy. When they reached the school gate, they found that there were not many people there. Li Qifeng, who had been hanging there, had long disappeared. Only a few staff members from the Demon Suppression Bureau were still busy investigating the scene.

"Li Qifeng disappeared? Who did it?"

Lu Yue widened his eyes and stared at the place where Li Qifeng had been before with suspicion, as if someone could suddenly appear there to explain everything.

Ye Ye stood aside, watching Lu Yue's reaction, and couldn't help feeling speechless. He rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

"Come on, who do you think did this? He's the young master of the Li family's direct bloodline. Are you really planning to leave him hanging here like a dead dog for a few days?"

Lu Yue was embarrassed by Ye Ye's words. He scratched his head and spoke incoherently.

"I...I didn't mean that. I just thought it was a little weird."

Ye Ye waved his hand, not wanting to argue with Lu Yue about this issue any further. He turned and walked, talking as he went.

"Okay, don't think too much. There's no need to delve into these things. Anyway, this matter is not over yet, let's go back first."

Seeing this, Lu Yue hurriedly followed Ye Ye's pace. The two walked towards the academy together, not speaking a word along the way.

However, the news of their return to the academy spread like wildfire in the school forum at an alarming speed. It seemed as if the news had grown wings and quickly spread to every corner of the campus, causing an uproar.

All of a sudden, all kinds of speculation and discussion emerged like a tide, and students expressed their opinions on the forum one after another. These speculations were varied and made people laugh and cry. After all, they thought that Ye Ye had just caused such a big disaster and would probably go out and hide for a few days. They didn't expect them to come back so soon?

Ye Ye and Lu Yue also suddenly felt as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them from behind. Whether walking on the campus path or sitting in the classroom, they could always sense people secretly observing them and whispering to them. This feeling of being watched made them a little uncomfortable, but Ye Ye remained calm.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, as if he had anticipated all this. He ignored the strange looks and walked on, chatting and laughing with Lu Yue. In his view, these were just insignificant incidents, not worth his attention.

In this way, the two of them returned to the dormitory smoothly. When they arrived at Li Qifeng's door, they found it tightly closed, as if blocked by an invisible barrier. Ye Ye stood in front of the door and used his mind to sense it, and immediately confirmed that Li Qifeng had not returned to the dormitory.

This wasn't surprising. After all, although Ye Ye hadn't been brutal with Li Qifeng, he'd still inevitably sustained some minor injuries. Given Li Qifeng's personality, he certainly wouldn't let it go. He was probably currently receiving treatment at a private hospital.

Ye Ye gently pushed open the door and walked into the room with Lu Yue. They sat on the sofa in the living room and began to discuss recruiting team members. Lu Yue turned on his computer, logged into the school forum, and quickly posted a message. The content of the post was very concise and clear, simply stating that they were in urgent need of a teammate to participate in the assessment for the freshman talent class. Those interested could apply directly on the school's official website. They had already opened the team formation permission.

"Now we can only wait for news..."

After Lu Yue finished posting, he took a deep breath and said to Ye Ye with a sigh of relief. Ye Ye smiled and nodded in agreement. He didn't seem too worried about not being able to recruit suitable players, as if he was full of confidence in his own and Lu Yue's abilities.

After all, tonight's action could be said to kill two birds with one stone. Not only did it successfully humiliate Li Qifeng, but it also sent a clear message to the students—he was not afraid of Li Qifeng at all, so they had nothing to worry about. At the same time, this action also sent a stern warning to those who intended to target him, letting them know that he was not to be trifled with!

However, just as Lu Yue was eagerly anticipating the post's potential impact, he suddenly realized things weren't going his way. The post had been up for nearly half an hour, and normally, the forum would be bustling with activity, with numerous replies and a desire to join the group.

However, when Ye Ye checked the backend of the Luyue School system, he was surprised to find that no one had applied to join! What was going on? Ye Ye couldn't help but feel a little confused. He had originally thought that this post would cause an uproar as he imagined, attracting the attention and participation of many students, but the current situation was completely beyond his expectations.

Looking at the silent backstage, Lu Yue frowned slightly, thinking to himself: "What went wrong? Is it because my plan was not thorough enough, or is there some other reason that led to this result?"

He began to examine the content of the post word by word, not missing any details, and also carefully checked the way the post was published to see if there were any loopholes or errors. However, after a long and careful inspection, Lu Yue did not find any abnormalities, which made him suspicious.

Ye Ye, who was standing by, also noticed that something was amiss. She realized that despite spending a lot of time and energy checking the posts, they didn't seem to have made any substantial progress. Ye Ye's brows furrowed slightly, revealing a hint of anxiety.

"The deterrent power of Li Qifeng and Ning Dan is so great?"

Ye Ye muttered to himself.

"With so many people... no one dares to join us?"

Lu Yue shook his head and said thoughtfully.

"I find it a bit strange, too. Logically, there should be some people interested in our activities and willing to join. After all, we just gave Li Qifeng a hard slap in the face. Li Qifeng is a perverse person and has offended quite a few people."

At this moment, Lu Yue suddenly remembered a detail and he quickly said.

"No, I feel something is strange. In the post, someone directly left a message saying they want to join us, but there's no movement from our team behind the scenes."

After hearing Lu Yue's words, Ye Ye's face showed a hint of realization, as if he suddenly understood something.

A possibility suddenly occurred to him.

"Is it possible that the school's backend was hacked, and they submitted the application, but we can't receive it at all?"

Ye Ye’s words made Lu Yue stunned.

"No way...this is the backer of the Huaguo Beast Taming Academy. How can Li Qifeng be so bold?"

"He dared to gather people to attack us directly, so what's the point of using such a small trick?"

After saying that, Ye Ye directly called Tian Qingtian, hoping that Tian Qingtian could help him check the background.
