Chapter 243: Next Big Thing

"Your debut is certain," Laohu said, causing Lin Zhi to smirk. 

"Did I actually rank 5th last night?" Lin Zhi asked, hope swelling in his heart. 

Laohu scoffed as he shook his head. "Of course not. You ranked 12th. I had someone swap your rank with that popular trainee June." 

Lin Zhi, despite feeling disappointed that he wasn't remotely close to the debut spot, felt satisfied that it was June he exchanged ranks with. 

"That's good," he smiled. "Continue swapping our ranks from now on." 

Laohu shook his head. "That can't be. We can't do something like that again. It's too risky. There are already some people questioning why you rose in ranks so much and why June sank down." 

"Then, why did you do it in the first place?" Lin Zhi asked.
