Chapter 678: Top Experts_1

But, the Imperial College is really huge, and the number of students is countless.

In addition to the overt power of the large families, there are also many smaller organizations operating in secret.

Each family has its own power.

Even Tan Xiao and Chen Ming, though not from the Eight Big Families, have some strength of their own.

But if they have been assaulted, does that mean that the opponents have a greater power?

“You should be well aware of these things in the Mu family. It’s all about the power behind you.”

Ji Wei is somewhat helpless talking about this, being very cautious, fearing others may overhear.

However, the students have their own restraints, and they will not rely too much on the power of their family, otherwise it could provoke public anger.

“They didn’t use their family’s power and just sought help from two students from the college next door,” Ji Wei added.

Baili Xia has just arrived, she probably doesn’t know much about what’s going on in Jin City.

The college next door, Ji Wei explained to her, it’s not as simple as it seems.

But students in the Imperial College have a common understanding: whenever someone mentions ‘the college next door’, everyone knows which one they’re referring to.

That crappy school, whose name can’t even be remembered, is full of idlers.

There’s an unwritten rule at the Imperial College, if you need help, go seek it from that school next door.

Because the fighters from there are cheap, and anyone can afford to hire them.

“So, they sought help?”

“Yes, it’s said that they have a top-level master,” Ji Wei sighed, helplessly.

“We don’t know the exact details of what happened; all we know is that Chen Ming is still in the school hospital, unable to leave his bed.

As for our class monitor…”

“How is she?” Is it possible that they even laid their hands on a girl named Tan Xiao?

Ji Wei didn’t know what to say.

Finally, he just whispered,

“If you go to the dorm and see her, you’ll know.

Nobody has dared to tell her parents about this yet.”

“The other party issued a warning, if anyone dares to involve their family, they would directly involve the family’s power in return.”

“The family?

Could it be one of the Eight Big Families?”

This matter really should not involve outsiders.

Once an external power steps in, it would only make the situation even more chaotic.

“So, what exactly is the other party demanding?

You don’t know either?”

“I-I didn’t go yesterday,” Ji Wei misunderstood, not knowing whether to feel relieved or embarrassed.

Yesterday due to stomach upset, he did not go out with them, and avoided this disaster.

However, for this reason, he felt his position as a vice class monitor was in question.

“Baili Xia, please ask Tan Xiao directly for anything you want to know, I really don’t have any more information.”

All Ji Wei could do was tell her this much.

The other party is from the Eight Big Families, while his family is just a regular family.

His father runs a small business, barely considered wealthy in Jin City.

But in the Imperial College, there are too many rich people.

Forget about those like him who are semi-rich, even billionaires are a dime a dozen, how can he compare to that?

Ji Wei gave her another glance and then quickly left.

Baili Xia knew that she couldn’t blame him.

Surviving in such a complicated environment isn’t just about stepping up, you also have to consider the relationships behind you.

Now, even her mother had left with her stepfather, so she felt somewhat liberated, without any worries.

She let out a self-deprecatory smile.

As the bell rang, she thought for a moment, then returned to the classroom.

After greeting her classmates and asking them to take notes for her before the instructor arrived, she turned around and left.
