72 - Chicken Soup For the Soul; There's Nothing New
The parties of Shenxia Empire made their way back, cheerful and lively.
"The guys from Sakura Kingdom were really funny. They were so scared that they ran away."
"To see them scared witless, that was hilarious."
"They were so many, yet they were scared by a few skeletons. What a bunch of trash."
"Lin Moyu is even able to clear the nightmare rank dungeon. If he really went all out, the bunch from Sakura Kingdom would be like vegetables on a cutting board. It's not surprising that they ran away."
As they spoke, many cast glances in Lin Moyu's direction.
Lin Moyu remained silent, seeming extremely mysterious in their eyes.
Many whispered, speculating about his background.
"Where did he come from?"
"Is he perhaps from a top institute?"
"That seems unlikely. After all, why would someone from a top institute come to our
"Moreover, the people from top institutes are usually level grinding in high-level dungeons. There's no way they would bother to come to our trial."
"It's indeed quite strange. In that case, where did he come from."
"He seems to speak very little."
"A man of few words. When he took care of the Shikigami, that was really cool." fr𝑜m freewebnøvel.com.
On the way back, everyone was quite at ease.
Although they were unable to complete the trial mission, but today's events left them rather satisfied.
Seeing the people of Sakura Kingdom run away with their tails between their legs was really enjoyable.
As for the trial mission, it was put on the back burner.
Only Ling Zhen contained a shade of annoyance in his eyes.
From time to time, he would look at Lin Moyu with hatred and regret in his eyes.
If he hadn't forced Jiang Taotao to make a choice, he would have been among the people who completed the trial.
But now...
"It's not over yet."
Ling Zhen's heart was filled with resentment.
At the edge of Mermaid Island, the group from Qianlong Institute left the light curtain and returned to the starting point.
At this moment, Jiang Taotao took out the Mission Stone and the Mermaid's Tears, "Mission completed!"
The Mission Stone and the Mermaid's Tears slowly rose into the air. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
At the same time, a Shenxia Tower phantom appeared in the air.
A ray of light shot out from the tower and landed on Jiang Taotao's Mission Stone and Mermaid's Tears.
A few seconds later, a majestic voice transmitted.
"The trial mission has concluded! Initiating teleportation!"
The Shenxia Tower phantom shone brightly, illuminating everyone.
Everyone was quickly teleported away.
After more than 10 seconds, they returned to Qianlong Institute.
"We're back."
"The trial has ended."
"Fortunately, everyone came back alive."
"What nonsense. If all the trials of the institutes are added up, there are at least 100 trials every year. But have you ever heard of someone dying?"
"Low-level trials do not result in deaths. Only top institutes, who have class users above level 30 enrolled, will report deaths every year."
"Exactly. To them, our trials are no different from fooling around."
At this time, Qianlong Institute is very lively. Everyone kept talking about the trial.
Most talked about Lin Moyu.
If it weren't for Lin Moyu, they would have to confront the people of Sakura Kingdom to the end.
By then, who knows if they would be able to snatch away the dungeon.
After all, the other party had a pretty high-level Onmyoji.
Ning Yiyi's small face has turned pale. The long-distance teleportation took a toll on her.
"In the future, the trials be best located somewhere nearby."
"If they're too far, I won't go."
Ning Yiyi lay listlessly on a desk, as if a dead fish.
Jiang Taotao smiled. Now that they're back, she felt at ease.
"Thank you."
"This trial is very important to me."
She sincerely thanked Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu shook his head, indicating that there was no need for thanks.
Ning Yiyi finally regained her composure, "Sister Peach, there's no need to be so formal. Although Moyu doesn't talk much, but he is very kind."
In fact, Ning Yiyi hasn't known Lin Moyu for a long time.
But she strangely trusts him completely.
"Quiet!"
At this time, a low shout transmitted.
Everyone looked up and saw a person standing in midair.
Void Step, level 70, a class user who has undergone the third class awakening.
Lin Moyu was awed.
After reaching level 70 and going through the third class awakening, a class user can use Void Step, gaining the ability to fly in the air.
This is true for any class user, including livelihood-type class users.
Of course, some individual class users can acquire the ability of flight before that.
Take the Onmyoji as an example, he can use the Shikigami to fly.
"This is our dean, Dean Hong Shan."
Ning Yiyi whispered in Lin Moyu's ear.
Lin Moyu nodded, a look of admiration in his eyes.
Any class user who can complete the third class awakening is worthy of admiration.
In high school textbooks, it is said that completing the third class awakening is extremely difficult.
Less than 1% of class user can complete third class awakening.
Such a character is naturally worthy of respect.
As for characters like God Bai, they are even rarer.
There are only a handful in the entire empire.
Dean Hong Shan swept everyone with his gaze, feeling very satisfied.
"The trial has ended. The trial's process and results are currently being analyzed."
"The final scores will be sent to your communicator at a later time."
"Keep this in mind, the most important thing is not the result, but the process."
"The purpose of the trial is for you to learn to enjoy the process and dispel your fear, and nurture a winning mentality."
"To complete the trial without casualties and return safely, this is more important than anything else."
"Reportedly, you have encountered class users from Sakura Kingdom in this trial."
"We will take this into account."
"Those who perform well will naturally have the opportunity to enter a top institute."
"Now take a good rest."
When he was done speaking, Dean Hong Shan turned and left.
Ning Yiyi let out a long breath, "Chicken soup for the soul. Every time, it's the same old thing. There's nothing new."
Jiang Taotao smiled and said, as if trying to coax a child. "This serves as encouragement."
Ning Yiyi snorted, "There's no need for encouragement. Every time, they use the top institutes to entice us. What's the big deal."
Jiang Taotao smiled more broadly, "It might not be a big deal to you. But to us, it's a different story."
Ning Yiyi said no more. She is aware that Jiang Taotao really wants to enter a top institute.
At Xiajing Academy, there are significant differences between ordinary students, students in institutes, and students in top institutes.
Both ordinary students and students in institutes wish to join top institutes.
Jiang Taotao divided the harvest from the dungeon.
Lin Moyu also took out the things he obtained later.
Although the last two dungeon raids were undertaken only by him and Ning Yiyi, but since they were part of the same party, he insisted that everyone should get an equal share.
After the spoils were divided, Ning Yiyi and Lin Moyu went to the imperial trade office together.
These things are useless to Lin Moyu. As such, he intends to sell them.
Ning Yiyi, who doesn't care much about money, gave her share to Lin Moyu.
The justification she gave him was that there is no more space in her storage space.
This justification is utter rubbish.
The storage space of class users isn't small at all, so it's hard to believe that there is no spare space in hers.
Lin Moyu didn't refuse her kindness, accepting it all.
After this trip, the relationship between the two appears to have changed. There's no longer a need to make a fuss about some things.
At the imperial trade office, all the useless silver rank equipment were sold.
Lin Moyu originally intended to give the silver rank Mermaid Queen's Dagger to Ning Yiyi.
But Ning Yiyi took out a better dagger and waved it in front of him.
Although it is also silver rank, but it has stronger attributes.
In general, class users below level 10 use iron rank equipment.
Class users between level 10 and level 20 use bronze rank equipment.
Class users above level 20 use silver rank equipment.
At the same time, between the lowest grade and highest grade of silver rank equipment, there is a stark difference.
The Mermaid Queen is a level 24 boss, while Mermaid Dungeon is only a level 20 dungeon. The silver rank weapons it drops can only be considered as mediocre.
The only advantage of weapons dropped in Mermaid Dungeon is that they are more aesthetically pleasing.
In the imperial trade office, silver grade weapons are priced between 50,000 and 200,000 gold coins.
The Mermaid Queen's weapons are basically priced at around 70,000 gold coins.
After he sold two Mermaid Queen's weapons and a number of other materials, Lin Moyu received 180,000 gold coins.
"Don't you need a weapon?" Ning Yiyi looked at Lin Moyu's empty hands.
Lin Moyu originally had a magic book, but then he found it troublesome and sold it.
Lin Moyu shook his head, "Weapons are of no use to me."
His class is Necromancer. Although it is a Mage-type class, but whether it's staves or magic books, the bonuses they provide is of no use to him.
Lin Moyu thinks that perhaps his class has its own specialized equipment.
Ning Yiyi made an oh sound, "You need to save money and buy more elementary skill scrolls."
"Before the second class awakening, you need to learn all elementary rank skills of your class."
Lin Moyu listened carefully. After all, Ning Yiyi is much more knowledgeable than him.
As if having turned into a teacher, she earnestly shared her knowledge.
"After you have undergone the second class awakening, you can only use intermediate skill scrolls."
"By that time, to master elementary rank skill, you will have to waste intermediate rank skill scrolls."
After listening to Ning Yiyi, Lin Moyu realized that intermediate skill scrolls can also be used to elementary rank skills.
Intermediate skill scrolls are 100 times more expensive than elementary skill scrolls. If you use an intermediate skill scroll and learn an elementary rank skill, that would hurt quite a bit.
All of a sudden, the communicator on Lin Moyu's wrist rang.
After connecting the call, a majestic voice came from the communicator.
"Lin Moyu, come to the office of academic affairs."
