146: I met a freshman by chance, and I tried my best but couldn't defeat him!!

Professionals spend most of their time grinding monsters and leveling up, with little time for studying.

Considering this, Magic Martial Arts Academy does not have a fixed curriculum; teaching primarily consists of public lectures and private tutoring.

Teachers at Magic Martial Arts Academy have quotas and hold public lectures periodically.

Private tutoring can be booked through the teaching channel on the student interface, costing a certain amount of points for one-on-one teaching, personal guidance, and Q&A with a Teacher.

The teaching effect is better, but it's very expensive.

Ye Ze checked, and the price for a private tutoring session is generally above 500 points, with each session lasting 45 minutes.

He mainly wanted to learn blade techniques.

Owning a fourth-tier secret treasure long blade but not having comprehended blade-type talents and skills was a great waste of a good blade.

The public lecture Ye Ze booked was given by a professionalMad Swordsman (Frenzied Blade User) in the Saintly Position Realm, whose talent had reached Blade Dao Grandmaster and possessed multiple sixth-tier blade skills.

He would first see how the public lecture went before booking private tutoring.

"After clearing the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon, I'll practice archery training for a few hours, and finally attend the public lecture." Ye Ze planned his day.

After eating breakfast, Ye Ze came to the first floor of the Copy Tower.

There were significantly more students today than yesterday, clearly all coming for the Skeleton Guardian Necklace.

"He's here."

"Who?"

"It's that Freshman student Ye Ze who broke Lord Lu's record yesterday."

Someone recognized Ye Ze and was discussing him in a low voice with a nearby student.

"I bet he'll enter the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon again today. He definitely wants to collect the remaining skeleton guardian set."

"There are still four pieces of the skeleton guardian set left, so doesn't he have to break the clearance record 4 more times... That's a bit difficult, isn't it?"

"..."

...

"You're that Ye Ze?"

At this moment, a mage wearing a white mage robe suddenly appeared and blocked his path. Behind him stood a knight who was two meters tall and clad in armor, along with three teammates.

The mage's expression was arrogant. He looked at Ye Ze and asked in a questioning tone,

"Is the prerequisite you mentioned true? Our team grinded 136 Skeleton Guardians in half an hour and 296 Skeleton Guardians in an hour, so why didn't the Skeleton Guardian Necklace drop?"

Although the surrounding students felt the mage's behavior was somewhat rude, upon hearing the question, they all simultaneously focused their gazes on Ye Ze.

Ye Ze frowned.

He said calmly, "I just gave a general guess. I don't know the specific prerequisites either."

"Then how many Skeleton Guardians did you grind in an hour?" the white-robed mage pressed.

"Too many to count."

"Too many to count??"

The white-robed mage's eyes narrowed slightly.

Then he said sternly, "I think you're deliberately misleading us and don't want us to get the Skeleton Guardian Necklace!"

"So?"

Ye Ze looked at him with an expression as if looking at an idiot. "Even if that's the case, what about it?"

"Does Magic Martial Arts Academy have a rule that requires me to clearly explain the prerequisites for obtaining the Skeleton Guardian Necklace?"

Ye Ze couldn't be bothered to argue with an idiot. He patted his shoulder and left a sentence, "If you're weak, practice more."

Bypassing him, he went straight to the entrance of the Buried Bone Graveyard.

The vortex entrance flashed, and Ye Ze's figure disappeared from the spot.

The mage Chen Yan's face alternated between green and pale, and he gritted his teeth in anger.

This Ye Ze actually gave him so little face, even mocking him in front of so many people.

However, few people paid attention to him. Watching Ye Ze enter the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon, everyone started discussing animatedly.

"I told you he would enter the Buried Bone Graveyard Corpse Fiend Dungeon."

"It seems he's going to collect the remaining five Skeleton Guardian secret treasures."

"He's not going to be like Lord Lu and dominate the top five clearance records for 15 years, is he?"

"It's hard to say, because of the existence of the Skeleton Guardian Necklace, the value of the skeleton guardian set has greatly increased. There are already Sophomore Year teams and even Junior teams coming to grind in the Buried Bone Graveyard..."

"..."

...

Familiar passage, familiar smell.

This was Ye Ze's third time entering the Buried Bone Graveyard.

After identifying the environment before him,

This time it was Map 5. Following the best route for Map 5, Ye Ze charged through, defeating enemies all the way to the final Boss tomb.

Swish!!

A cold light flashed!

The head of the continuously wailing Fear Corpse King fell to the ground, completely losing its breath.

...

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Three consecutive bell tolls came from the first floor!

Instantly, everyone looked towards the crystal screen beside the Buried Bone Graveyard entrance.

[Clearance Record Leaderboard]

First: 35 minutes 54 seconds, Clearing Student: Ye Ze (Freshman)

Second: 35 minutes 55 seconds, Clearing Student: Ye Ze (Freshman)

...

Hiss!!

Everyone couldn't help but gasp.

"1 second, it's only 1 second more again!"

"He really did it on purpose."

"So strong."

"And I heard that student Ye Ze is not an old Freshman student, but a new Freshman student admitted through this year's national college entrance exam."

"Encountered a Freshman, unable to defeat him despite putting in full effort."

"..."

...

With a difference of 1 second, he once again broke the fastest clearance record.

This time, the shock Ye Ze brought to the students was no less than the shock of breaking Lord Lu's record yesterday.

This meant that Ye Ze's record yesterday was not a coincidence, but that he deliberately controlled the clearance time to be precisely one second more than the record.

In other words, Ye Ze's true clearance record was far beyond the current fastest clearance record.

"Newcomers are all monsters..."

Someone sighed...

...

Swoosh!!

A black shadow flashed past!

Ye Ze was smarter this time. After coming out of the Corpse Fiend Dungeon, he immediately used a teleport + [Shadow Shuttle] to avoid being watched by hundreds of pairs of eyes.
