351: Section 351

Lin Yi's face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly cupped his hands in a salute.

He walked out from there...

Just as he had left, the seniors swarmed in.

"President, what's the deal with that kid? His Spearmanship is so refined?"

"Weren't we supposed to just spar? I think he was clearly trying to take someone's life!"

"Maybe his Spearmanship isn't practiced enough, and he didn't manage to pull back in time. Fortunately, the President dodged it."

"That scared me to death just now, it almost turned into a disaster!"

"President..."

Listening to the chaotic chatter around him, President Xu Tai said with some impatience, "Alright, stop pestering me endlessly. Are you all done training? Don't you need to practice your Spearmanship?"

Hearing him say this, the others quickly shut their mouths.

"Go practice your spears. If you have this much time, spend it pondering your own Spearmanship and where exactly you are lacking!"

"When you eventually graduate and join the Monster Hunting Bureau, facing those Yao Beasts and exotic beasts, you won't even have the ability to save your own lives!"

President Xu Tai's scolding left the others looking like wilted eggplants.

They lowered their heads and returned to the training ground in front to practice their Spearmanship.

However, President Xu Tai did not leave.

He stayed there to review the sparring session that had just occurred.

He repeatedly scrutinized and polished every spear strike and every move of Lin Yi's.

He calculated in his heart how to neutralize them.

If nothing else, regarding that last strike from Lin Yi, he had purely relied on luck to dodge it.

If it happened again, he might not have such good luck.

"I must figure out how to counter that strike, otherwise, I will definitely suffer next time!"

President Xu Tai muttered to himself. Once everyone else had left, he held his dragon-pattern spear and continued to practice alone.

...

Dormitory Area 1 Cafeteria.

"Where is Lin Yi? He's not coming to eat again?"

Wei Nan, along with Zhou Qi, Sun Tao, and Shen Mengyi, had just sat down when they noticed Lin Yi was missing.

Zhou Qi couldn't help but ask, and Wei Nan sighed and shook his head.

"Don't even mention it. He has fallen into a state of Qi Deviation, researching that Tiger Roar Spear Technique in the dorm every day. It's fortunate that I don't practice spear, otherwise, he would definitely drag me along to feed him moves..."

"He's still researching? Isn't his Tiger Roar Spear Technique already considered perfect? Why is he still researching it?" Sun Tao said with some astonishment.

Wei Nan shook his head: "He says there are still several places that need improvement. He's crazy, he's absolutely crazy!"

"To be honest, even during the Martial Arts Exam, I never saw him this serious!"

"After all, this Tiger Roar Spear Technique is considered Senior Brother Lin's own self-created technique, so he must be pursuing ultimate perfection. If I had that ability and could create my own set of archery skills, I would also go to improve it every day..."

A look of admiration flashed in Shen Mengyi's eyes.

Once she said this, the others also felt it made some sense.

They simply stopped discussing this matter further.

"Later, you should pack a meal for Lin Yi and take it back!" Zhou Qi said, frowning.

Wei Nan nodded: "I'm definitely going to pack food to take back. Right now, Old Wei and Old Feng haven't returned yet, so it's just the two of us left in the dorm!"

"He has fallen into a frenzy again; if I don't take care of him, what will happen!"

"By the way, the mission silence period is over, right? Do you have any plans to accept missions and go to Prison City?"

Wei Nan looked at them with a smile.

However, when they heard the words 'Prison City', a shadow of fear inexplicably rose in their hearts.

Last time they went to Prison City, they almost lost their lives there.

Even now, thinking about going on a mission, the sense of fear had not dissipated.

Sun Tao shook his head: "Let's forget it. I plan to practice a set of blade techniques first and push my Realm to 2-star before doing anything else, otherwise, going to Prison City is too dangerous!"

"Me too, I'll push my Realm first, otherwise I won't feel confident if I go now!"

Wei Nan and Shen Mengyi both nodded.

Right now, all of them were filled with an indelible shadow regarding Prison City.

To overcome the shadow in their hearts, they would need to reach a Realm capable of crushing the Yao Beasts and exotic beasts there.

Anyway, it had only been a month since school started.

There was still nearly a year to improve themselves.

As for the credit assessment, there was still plenty of time.

Therefore, they were currently more focused on the Cultivation of Martial Skills and Realm.

Before they had a sure-fire guarantee, they didn't plan to set foot in Prison City.

They feared Prison City.

Lin Yi did not have these concerns.

On the contrary, he was more eager to go to Prison City to find a few Yao Beasts to test his Spearmanship.

[Confirm accepting the mission?]

Lin Yi tapped the [Confirm] button on the screen.

[Successfully accepted a 5-star mission]

[5-star mission: Hunt two 3-star Monster Beasts, time limit 7 days]

[Mission reward: 750,000 cash, 3rd-grade composite potion X1, Credits + 80]

The bracelet vibrated.

Lin Yi looked down and saw that the mission had been successfully accepted.

Following that, he left the Mission Hall, intending to return to the dormitory to feed Xiao Qi first.

After letting it eat and drink its fill, he would head directly to Prison City to do the mission that night.

But just as he had left the hall, he was spotted by a few students who also lived in Dormitory Area 1.

"That kid just now looks a bit familiar. Is he one of the Martial arts examinees who came from the Old District with Sun Tao and Zhou Qi?"

"That's him. I heard he's the Martial Exam Top Scholar!"

"Heh, Martial Exam Top Scholar? Last time in Prison City, they had many people, so I didn't bother them. Today, he actually came here to accept a mission all by himself!"

"What's the plan? Want to take him down?"

"That's for sure. A bumpkin from the Old District, what right does he have to live in Area 1 with us?"

"Don't forget, he is the Martial Exam Top Scholar from the Old District..."

"So what if he's a Martial Exam Top Scholar? There are so many of us, are we afraid of him alone? Do we do it or not?"

"Exactly, if they had many people, that would be one thing, but now it's just him alone, why should we be afraid of him?"

"Take him down. Seeing these beggars from the Old District is annoying!"

The group was as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

After discussing it, they headed straight into the Mission Hall.

They planned to ambush Lin Yi in Prison City that night...

"You're going to Prison City?"

Wei Nan returned to the dormitory with the food he had packed from the Cafeteria.

Just as he heard that Lin Yi was going to Prison City alone to do a mission, Wei Nan's expression changed in shock.

Lin Yi nodded: "You all focus on Cultivating. I'll come back after I finish the mission, and I'll test my Spearmanship while I'm at it!"

"No, you're just leaving us behind like this? You're not taking us along?" Wei Nan said hurriedly.

"If I take you along, would you dare to go? Go accept a mission now, and we can leave together tonight?" Lin Yi said with a light smile.

As it turned out, Wei Nan still couldn't suppress the fear in his heart.

He shook his head and said: "Forget it. Going would only hold you back. When my Realm is higher, I will definitely go to Prison City to hunt Yao Beasts with you!"

"However, you need to be careful when you go to Prison City alone!"

"Yao Beasts and such aren't scary; human hearts are the scariest, especially those students who claim to be locals. If you meet them alone, try your best to avoid any conflict..."

"Conflict? If they really come to find trouble with me, I'll just kill them!" Lin Yi replied nonchalantly.

Wei Nan: "..."
