26: Late-night assessment!

Late at night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

The Martial Academy campus was quiet, with only the faint chirping of cicadas.

Two figures stealthily crept into a dormitory building and crouched by the wall.

Click!

A spark of fire lit up in the darkness, followed by a second.

"Whew~ (exhaling smoke)"

Two men were perched on the wall, smoking.

"Damn it! Not sleeping in the middle of the night just to toss around for a hundred points, this is bullshit!"

The thin man said aggrievedly.

The other round-faced man sighed, "There's no choice. If we don't earn some points soon, we won't even be able to afford food. Do you really want to eat slop?"

The thin man's face stiffened, and then he said quietly, "I've already eaten it for three days."

Round-faced man: "..."

"But aren't we being too careful? They're just a few special recruits, right? I heard they aren't even Second-Tier."

The round-faced man shook his head, "Don't underestimate them. Could someone who passed the assessment be ordinary?"

The thin man took a deep drag of his cigarette, and after letting it hit his lungs, he slowly exhaled, "Fear my ass! No matter how high their talent is, they're just rookies. I've been in the Second Year Student for two years; would I be afraid of a few greenhorns?"

"Let's go! Let's finish them off quickly so we can get some sleep early."

After stubbing out his cigarette, the thin man was the first to enter the dormitory.

The round-faced man followed closely behind.

Little did they know that directly above them, a figure stood like a ghost on the windowsill, calmly watching their every move.

As they entered the dormitory, the figure vanished into the darkness.

After the two seniors entered the dormitory, they headed straight for a door. There was student information on the door; it was Fang Bai's room.

Just then, the thin man suddenly said, "Something's not right!"

The round-faced man's eyes narrowed, "We've been spotted?"

The thin man didn't speak; instead, he kicked the room door open!

Bang!

Swish!

The moment the door opened, a basin of water splashed down from the top of the door!

The thin man raised an eyebrow, "Looks like we've been discovered. However, this is undoubtedly just a child's prank."

Saying so, he calmly walked into the room.

"Fire in the hole!"

"Here's a fresh pile of poop for you!"

An excited voice rang out.

The thin man had just stepped in with one foot when he heard those words. His expression changed instantly, and he immediately pulled back, quickly crouching down!

Splat!

An unknown object slammed against the wall!

The round-faced man instinctively glanced at it and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was just mud.

Clack!

Four room doors opened simultaneously, and Fang Bai and the others stepped out together.

Qi Tian had a smile on his face, "Old Bai was right, someone really did launch a sneak attack!"

The thin man said in surprise, "You guys knew we were coming?"

Qi Tian shrugged, "We didn't! But knowing the Martial Academy's style, they definitely wouldn't let us off easy."

The round-faced man gave a thumbs up, "Not bad, not bad. You guys are quite vigilant."

Fang Bai asked, "What is your mission?"

The thin man grinned, "Nothing much, just to give you a beating."

The round-faced man muttered, "Four people, that should be four hundred points."

Points?

Fang Bai seemed to have guessed something, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, "You take missions to beat us up and earn points?"

The thin man nodded, "Yes. There are many missions in the Martial Academy, all sorts of strange ones, but the points are very tempting."

Fang Bai nodded.

"Alright, chat's over. Since you've found us out, let's just fight."

He had originally wanted to launch a sneak attack and finish early, but he hadn't expected these guys to be quite capable.

Fang Bai revealed a strange smile, "The two of you against the four of us?"

The round-faced man laughed, "Numbers don't necessarily mean strength. We are both Second-Tier!"

As he spoke, he released his Alien Energy.

Crackle~

Lightning power surrounded his body, the special effects maxed out.

A Second-Tier Lightning Element Martial Artist!

Fang Bai was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected the other party to be a Lightning Element Martial Artist just like him.

However, the other's Alien Energy was much more robust than his own.

The thin man also released his Alien Energy, his whole body bursting into flames like a hell warrior.

A Fire Element Second-Tier Martial Artist!

Clack!

At this moment, a door not far away opened. A girl poked her head out and said with a giggle, "Can you not fight here? You're disturbing my sleep."

Shua!

As soon as she spoke, the two seniors immediately retracted their Alien Energy, revealing honest smiles and bowing to the girl, "Sorry, sorry, Senior Sister Qiu. We didn't know you were resting."

The girl said with a smile, "It's fine, just don't do it again next time."

After speaking, she glanced at Fang Bai and the others, then closed the door.

Fang Bai and the others had strange expressions.

Fang Bai asked curiously, "Who was that beauty?"

The thin man breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "She's a Third Year Student senior sister."

Third Year Student!

Fang Bai was a bit surprised; he hadn't expected a Third Year Student to be on their floor!

The thin man smiled, "Let's take this outside."

A minute later, Fang Bai's group of four surrounded the two seniors.

"Let me introduce myself. The one beating you tonight is Hu Wei from the Second Year Student Fire Element Class 2."

The thin man said with a smile.

The round-faced man followed immediately, "I am Lu Fei from Lightning Element Class 2."

In the Martial Academy, each element is divided into classes. Normally, an element has three classes; if there are few people, they are grouped into one.

Fang Bai and the others hadn't been assigned yet. They would only be placed in specific classes after passing the theory assessment.

Qi Tian's lips curled, "This Young Master has no interest in hearing your introductions, because I don't want to remember the names of the defeated!"

"Oh? You're quite arrogant!"

Hu Wei looked at Qi Tian.

The latter sneered and then directly released his Alien Energy!

Also Second-Tier!

This actually surprised the two of them.

"I didn't expect you to be Second-Tier. Interesting, but you're only at the early stage of Second-Tier, while we are at the middle stage!"

Qi Tian flicked his bangs and said confidently, "It's enough to deal with you! In front of This Young Master, enemies either flee or suffer a crushing defeat!"

Hu Wei was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed, and his head instinctively tilted!

Swish!

A whip kick swept past his ear. If he hadn't tilted his head, he probably would have suffered a concussion!

Failing to land the blow, A Xiu's figure quickly retreated several meters!

Hu Wei said in surprise, "Nice teamwork. You actually knew how to distract me."

Qi Tian wasn't just mindlessly talking big; he was doing it to buy time for his teammate to launch a sneak attack.

Lu Fei struck a fighting pose and laughed, "I was right, wasn't I? They aren't simple. If we don't get serious, we'll fail miserably."

If they couldn't beat a few rookies, they would probably be laughed to death by others.

Fang Bai and the others also released their Alien Energy one after another.

As for their injuries from during the day, they had already been treated by Qi Tian in the afternoon!

Now they were back to full health!

"Let's do this?"
