148: Chapter 148 You are the worst class I've ever taught

Below, Chi Anlin didn't know about any of this; otherwise, he would have had a few things to complain about.

In an apocalyptic world, killing the 'Holy Mothers' first was indeed the right thing to do. This wasn't an era of peace; between opposing forces, it was a matter of life and death. Kindness in such a context was synonymous with stupidity.

Now that evil cultivators had infiltrated the ranks, Chi Anlin couldn't just stand by. He shouted, "Everyone, activate your bracelets!"

The bracelets were bound to the students. Even if the evil cultivators managed to get their hands on one, it would be nothing more than a decoration they couldn't activate.

Hearing this, the students—who had been at a loss—hurriedly activated their bracelets. Virtual interfaces flickered into existence, and in an instant, the evil cultivators hidden among them were filtered out.

Several students who were heavily injured but still alive were dragged back to receive treatment from the medics. Seeing their companions suffer casualties, the other students cast aside their contempt for the evil cultivators and began to face them with everything they had.

The strength gap between the two sides was already significant. With the students going all out, the evil cultivators were beaten back repeatedly.

On the battlefield, several Beast Tamers were commanding their beasts to kill the enemy.

"Purple Flame Fox, hurry up and kill a few more. These are all points!" Gu Ping commanded his beast to kill. By letting his beast do the killing, he didn't feel any fear or disgust at all.

After a moment's thought, he looked at the Fire Crystal Pig guarding him. "You go too! These people are about to be wiped out. If you don't hurry, we won't get any more points!"

The Fire Crystal Pig obeyed its master's command and charged straight at the evil cultivators ahead. At that moment, the eyes of several evil cultivators gleamed. Once the Fire Crystal Pig was engaged with another evil cultivator, they lunged at Gu Ping simultaneously.

"You guys! Fire Crystal Pig! Come back!" But it was already too late. A Beast Tamer without their beast was essentially powerless.

Not every Beast Tamer possessed strength as freakish as Chi Anlin's.

Under the pincer attack of the four men, Gu Ping was struck by a large blade. Blood sprayed out, creating a particularly gruesome scene.

The three beasts lost their contracts, and their eyes turned blood-red as they pounced on the people around them. The evil cultivator fighting the Fire Crystal Pig had been prepared; he coordinated with another evil cultivator to knock a student toward it.

In an instant, the three beasts were fighting the students. Unlike the 'knock-offs' whose strength had been forcibly boosted by the evil cultivators, these three beasts were the real deal, and they quickly forced the students into a retreat.

In the distance, Chi Anlin shook his head at the sight and said to Xiao Yue, "Go take care of those beasts."

Xiao Yue nodded and ran toward the beasts. It had used Extreme Ice Flash many times today, so it didn't waste spiritual energy using it now to avoid putting a strain on its body.

Once Xiao Yue left, two evil cultivators at the fifth stage of the First Realm suddenly leapt from the ruins and charged at Chi Anlin.

"Watch out!" Several students were startled. Although Chi Anlin hadn't been injured when facing a ten-man siege earlier, these two were at the fifth stage of the First Realm!

Chi Anlin sighed. Looking at the two men rushing toward him, he slowly reached out his hand.

In that instant, he had already used the Appraisal skill twice. After confirming they weren't hiding their strength, he let Xiao Yue continue hunting the beasts.

"Die!" The two were overjoyed. Another fool. They hadn't expected the strongest genius here to be a hothouse flower lacking combat experience.

That Wolf Beast shouldn't have that strange teleportation ability left, or it would have returned by now.

A heavy hammer and an axe smashed toward Chi Anlin simultaneously. Chi Anlin raised both hands and caught both weapons directly.

"What?!" Immense strength pinned their weapons firmly in place. Huang Yi and Huang Er reacted quickly, choosing to abandon their weapons and flee immediately.

The moment they turned their heads, two ice spikes flew out like lightning. The massive force pinned both of them to the ground.

Chi Anlin checked the time on his bracelet and suddenly said, "Ten minutes are up. Xiao Yue, clear the field. Everyone else, back away."

Xiao Yue let out a long howl toward the sky as flames ignited on its fur. The Sky-Burning Fire Domain expanded. In an instant, the surrounding evil cultivators turned into balls of fire; they were reduced to ashes before they could even scream.

The students scrambled back toward the medics. Xiao Yue spat out several fireballs, finishing off the evil cultivators still entangled with students. Like a monarch emerging from the flames, sparks flickered in its eyes as a fire tornado suddenly swept through the ruins.

With Xiao Yue going all out, all the evil cultivators on the scene were turned to ash in less than a minute.

Afterward, the flames on Xiao Yue's body vanished, and it turned back to a snow-white color as it walked slowly toward Chi Anlin.

"Tian Yin, heal them. Xiao Xing, remember the scent of these evil cultivators and get ready to find the next target."

At Chi Anlin's words, Tian Yin took flight. Her crisp singing echoed over the battlefield, clearing the negative effects from the students who were feeling nauseous from the smell of blood. Then, a light glowed from her hands, covering over a hundred injured students at once.

Having absorbed a large amount of the source of life, Tian Yin's healing ability was far beyond that of an ordinary medic. The crowd's injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for Xiao Xing, it scratched its head and looked at Chi Anlin with a face full of confusion. It was a hamster, not a dog; how was it supposed to track scents?

Though it didn't understand the point, Xiao Xing still threw up its tiny paws and shouted in the sea of consciousness, "Hey, Chi! Pay Little Mouse!"

Chi Anlin ignored it. He only said that to make Water Moon King believe Xiao Xing relied on scent to find people, since he had encountered evil cultivators before.

He couldn't let Water Moon King know that Xiao Xing found people purely by luck, could he? That would be too ridiculous.

As the students began to whisper among themselves, Water Moon King's figure appeared in the sky. With a wave of his hand, the ice wall Xiao Yue had built turned directly into water and vanished into the ground.

Before the students could speak, Water Moon King's angry voice rang in everyone's ears.

"A small gathering point. After Chi Anlin took out a Second Realm Talisman Master and several high-stage First Realm cultivators, you actually 'lost' over a dozen students against such a small number of evil cultivators."

Water Moon King stared coldly at the students as if their deaths meant nothing to him. "In this battle, the deceased are Li Yi, Gu Ping, Qin Xun..."

Hearing Water Moon King's words, several students turned pale. Over the past few days, they had actually become familiar with each other and become friends.

Yet, in just one school mission, friends they were joking around with yesterday had become cold corpses.

"Teacher Water Moon King, I don't understand. Why were you right there but didn't step in to save Li Yi? Is the mission more important than a student's life?" a girl asked with reddened eyes.

"Save her? A fool on the battlefield who shows mercy to her opponent not only kills herself but also drags others down. A fool raised by the Li Family—even if she's dead, she died for nothing."

"Even the Li Family wouldn't dare question this seat for this!"

Water Moon King, who usually looked like a scholar, now exuded an aura that made the students tremble with fear.

"For this mission, everyone except Chi Anlin will have ten points deducted from their performance score! Your combat was a disorganized mess! If Chi Anlin hadn't finished it off at the end, this battle wouldn't have ended for another half hour!"

"You are the worst batch I've ever taught!"
