6: Chapter 6: A complete liar! You think you can fool your advisor by thinking he's Japanese?

With the upgrade of the affixes, the original Sword Qi slowly disappeared.

Several new streaks of Sword Qi appeared once again.

However, they looked a bit more refined than before.

Behind Zhang Jian's Health, a line of numbers also appeared.

+180

New Sword Qi Body Protection, generated once again!

Zhang Jian felt steady in his heart. He stared fiercely at the Big-Foot Duck.

"Let me see you be vicious again?"

With the new defensive effect, Zhang Jian was safe once again.

Although it wasn't long before the Big-Foot Duck activated its skill again.

The ground trembled slightly, and Zhang Jian was hit again.

But surrounded by Sword Qi, his expression remained fearless.

Instead, he bravely stepped forward and launched several consecutive sword attacks, causing the Big-Foot Duck's Health to plummet.

Just as the Big-Foot Duck braced its feet, preparing to repeat the same trick, Zhang Jian's Sword Qi arrived first.

Six consecutive damage numbers floated up.

The Big-Foot Duck finally couldn't hold on, its Health was depleted.

Its body stiffened, and it tilted its head and fell over.

"You have gained 200 (+120) experience points."

"You have successfully killed an Elite-level monster 2 levels higher than yourself using [Sword Qi Slash], and your kill progress has increased by 20 points!"

"[I Only Hit the Elite] kill progress has increased by 10 points."

"You have obtained [Big-Foot Wide Boots]."

"You have obtained [Tearing Necklace]."

"You have obtained [Vicious Attack]."

"You have successfully killed an Elite-level monster solo for the first time, [King of Affixes] has been triggered, you have obtained the achievement affix [So Youre the So-Called Elite]!"

A huge harvest!

Looking at the continuous drops and the triggered affix again, Zhang Jian was overjoyed.

[So Youre the So-Called Elite] (Rare)

When fighting Elites, defense increases by 10%. When fighting solo, the effect is doubled.

(To upgrade affix quality: Use this affix to kill 0/1 Elite-level monster)

This affix is similar to the one obtained from killing the boss, but it is relatively harder to upgrade its quality.

Following this kill, a voice sounded in his ear.

"You have cleared the Normal-level trial dungeon."

"You have received an S-rank evaluation."

"You have gained an additional 1000 experience points."

"You have cleared a dungeon solo for the first time, [King of Affixes] has been triggered, you have obtained the achievement affix [Experience Abundance]!"

As light flickered, Zhang Jian was teleported out.

...

Outside the dungeon.

Countless students were gathered in groups, chatting together.

"After we cleared it, we got an A-rank evaluation, 100 experience points each, isn't that great!"

"What's the point of bragging about an A-rank? I heard Ye Wenjie and Tang Yun's team both got S-rank evaluations, 200 experience points each, they've already reached level 3!"

"At this rate, they won't have any problems clearing the Hard-level next, right?"

"That would require a team with Rare classes. For an average team, it's already good enough if they can clear the Normal-level using their three free daily attempts."

Someone changed the subject, their tone filled with mockery.

"If it's like Zhang Jian, who can't find a team and foolishly rushes in alone, it's probably good if he can kill a few monsters."

As they were speaking, they saw Zhang Jian's figure appear at the dungeon entrance.

The students who had just been talking about Zhang Jian blushed and quietly hid to the side.

Others were somewhat surprised.

"He actually managed to clear the dungeon solo? Is Zhang Jian this strong?"

"He probably couldn't beat the monsters and escaped early!"

"Ye Wenjie's team only just cleared it, it's impossible for Zhang Jian to have cleared it alone."

"Could it be that the Swordsman class comes with an escape attribute, haha!"

Zhang Jian glanced at them coldly.

Suddenly, there was silence.

At this moment, Instructor Wang Weidong walked over, looking anxious.

"I heard you went into the dungeon alone. You must be careful."

Zhang Jian felt a warmth in his heart.

"Instructor, I'm fine, I just cleared it."

Instructor Wang Weidong's jaw dropped.

"You cleared it alone?"

Zhang Jian nodded and explained.

"My Awakening talent is quite good. Although the Swordsman class is weak, I am not."

"Good, good, good!"

Instructor Wang Weidong patted Zhang Jian's hand, his face full of gratification.

"Well done!"

"You truly are the student I've been most optimistic about!"

"Even if you changed into a trash class that everyone looks down on, you can still carve out your own path."

He looked at the various pieces of equipment on Zhang Jian and praised him.

"It seems your gains are indeed significant."

"What are you planning to do next? Do you need me to help you find some suitable teammates to clear the Hard-level difficulty together?"

Just as Zhang Jian was about to answer, a tall, thin boy walked over.

He was followed by a few others, looking joyful.

He was Ye Wenjie, who had awakened the Rare class, Magic Swordsman.

In the academy, his grades were usually not as good as Zhang Jian's, yet he couldn't do anything about him.

Now that he had awakened a better class than Zhang Jian, he could finally hold his head high.

As the captain of the first team to clear the Normal-level dungeon today, he was feeling extremely proud, but then he saw the person he loathed most, Zhang Jian.

He couldn't help but want to come over and show off.

He happened to hear the conversation between Zhang Jian and Instructor Wang Weidong, and looked at Zhang Jian with disdain.

"Full of lies, how shameless!"

He turned to Instructor Wang Weidong.

"Instructor Wang, you are too easy to fool!"

"You believe him just because he says he cleared it? If he said he got an S-rank evaluation, wouldn't you believe that too?"

Instructor Wang Weidong's expression turned displeased.

"Zhang Jian is an honest child, he wouldn't lie to me."

Zhang Jian glanced at Ye Wenjie.

"How do you know I received an S-rank evaluation?"

Ye Wenjie was stunned, then burst into loud laughter.

"Hahaha!"

"You're really getting ahead of yourself, aren't you?"

"Our team has five people, two of whom are Rare classes, and we only barely managed to get an S-rank evaluation through coordinated effort."

A boy behind him lifted his chin, his expression arrogant.

He was Tang Yun, a Rare class Berserker.

Ye Wenjie looked at Zhang Jian with a gaze of disgust.

"You, a trash class, dare to lie and say you cleared it solo, and even got an S-rank evaluation? You really are trying to fool your instructor like he's Japanese!"

He was about to mock Zhang Jian a few more times, but when he saw Instructor Wang Weidong's unfriendly gaze, he shut his mouth.

"Instructor, I really did receive an S-rank evaluation."

Looking at Instructor Wang Weidong's concerned eyes, Zhang Jian's expression was sincere.

Instructor Wang Weidong nodded with gratification.

"They don't believe you, but I believe you!"

Zhang Jian was somewhat moved.

"Once I clear the Hard-level, the dungeon will automatically display the clearance record. At that time, they will all shut up and apologize to you!"

Instructor Wang Weidong felt a bit choked up.

"Silly child, what is there to apologize to me for?"

"They are blind, they should be the ones apologizing to you!"

Facing Instructor Wang Weidong's serious expression, Ye Wenjie couldn't say anything.

He snorted coldly and walked away, shaking his head.

Instructor Wang Weidong asked with concern.

"What kind of teammates do you need? I'll help you find some."

Zhang Jian shook his head.

"I can do it alone, I don't need teammates."

Instructor Wang Weidong became anxious.

"You child!"

"The Hard-level dungeon is not like the Normal-level. It has monsters up to level 7, and there is even a BOSS. How could you possibly clear it solo?"

"Listen to me, let's be a bit more cautious."

Zhang Jian still shook his head.

"If I'm alone, I have a talent bonus."

"If I add teammates, it will actually be harder to clear."

Instructor Wang Weidong hesitated for a moment.

"Don't lie to your teacher."

"If you get hurt or have an accident inside alone, that's something I wouldn't want to see."

With Instructor Wang Weidong saying this, Zhang Jian also hesitated a bit.

His current situation, although he had many affixes and great potential.

But when it came to absolute strength, he really wasn't sure if he could easily clear the Hard-level dungeon.

But if he wanted to improve again, the only way was to buy skill books or upgrade the quality of his affixes, which would be more immediate.

But he only had a few hundred Huaxia coins on him, what could he do with that?

Thinking of the drops from the Elite earlier, Zhang Jian felt a stir in his heart.
