66: Ghost Hammer Squad

"Stop being so wishy-washy, hurry up!"

Lin Xingyu kicked him.

He didn't act like a real man at all. They needed to finish quickly so they could continue grinding monsters and leveling up.

If they didn't have enough spirit crystals, they'd have to leave the Secret Realm to convert their live-streaming earnings into spirit crystals.

"Exactly, hurry up! I still need to test out my new spirit seed!"

Wang Ledian also urged him on.

"Okay... thank you..."

Li Hongyang wiped his eyes and continued eating the spirit shaping fruit... As time passed, the spirit shaping fruit was consumed at an incredibly fast rate.

Even after all the spirit crystals were used up, he still hadn't obtained an Advanced spirit seed.

Before Li Hongyang could speak, the others burst out.

"Let's go, back to exchange for spirit crystals!"

"Let's go!"

"I don't believe it, can't we stack up an Advanced spirit seed?"

The group teleported outside, mounted their phantom motorcycles, and sped towards the Secret Realm exit.

Li Hongyang followed behind, a warmth spreading through his heart.

This feeling was so new, making him both yearn for it and feel apprehensive.

He had grown up in the slums, always struggling to survive alone, never having experienced care from others.

Even a few days ago, when he received concern from the family head in the Li family, it was merely an attempt to use him as a "container."

All of that was false, completely different from now.

This feeling of being genuinely accepted made him experience the warmth of "home" for the first time... In Secret Realm No. 4399, in the wilderness.

"Captain, why don't we retreat?"

A Youchui Squad member, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, looked at the captain.

Their mental state was extremely poor right now.

This was the only way out of the Secret Realm, and people had been passing by all night.

They had been on high alert, scrutinizing everyone who came.

Their boss had confidently declared, again and again, "They will come."

If this continued, they would collapse before the enemy even arrived.

"Persevere! Perseverance is victory!"

"This is like taming a hawk; whoever gives up first loses."

"The enemy has been on edge all night. Now that it's just dawned, this is the easiest time for them to retreat!"

Iron Hammer said with renewed confidence.

He hadn't considered everything yesterday.

The nights in the Secret Realm were dangerous, so it was normal for those people not to act at night.

They must have been terrified all night, and that feeling couldn't have been pleasant.

Now that it was just dawn, they would surely rush towards the Secret Realm exit impatiently.

This was precisely when they were most likely to appear.

Sure enough, no sooner had Iron Hammer finished speaking than several figures on motorcycles appeared in the distance.

"Boss... brilliant!"

"Boss, I admire you so much!"

"Boss, you're still the best. Luckily we didn't retreat, otherwise..."

His subordinate was about to retort but suddenly saw the figures in the distance and immediately changed his tune.

A flurry of compliments made Iron Hammer a bit disoriented.

"Alright, everyone perk up and start the live stream!"

Iron Hammer shook his dizzy head and whispered.

Lord Zhou Jin had said that they needed to live stream the killing of Lin Xingyu and his companions.

The World Purifying Society wanted to regain Face in front of the netizens... Starfall City.

Puling Community.

The Glasses Man, still groggy, went to the restroom.

As soon as he squatted down, he habitually opened Douling Short Video.

He had been quite unlucky these past few days, first getting injured during a "remote maneuver."

Fortunately, his spirit seed was quite special, and he had given his all in the trial, achieving a decent score.

Just as he was looking forward to attending Starfall Academy, he was informed that he hadn't been admitted.

Many people with worse scores than him were admitted, but he was the only one rejected.

He angrily went to Starfall Academy, and Starfall Academy gave him a reason.

The reason was bizarre: "Mocking the weak during the Spirit Awakening Ritual, increasing the difficulty of admission!"

Damn it, that immediately broke him.

Mocking what weak?.

Didn't he just make a few jokes about Lin Xingyu?

Besides, Lin Xingyu had beaten him like a dog, so who was the weak one anyway?

He was the weak one, alright!!!

Lin Xingyu was first in the freshman trial!

This made his resentment towards Starfall Academy surpass that towards Lin Xingyu.

"Sigh..."

Thinking of this, the Glasses Man sighed helplessly.

What could he do?

He couldn't afford to provoke Lin Xingyu, much less Starfall Academy.

Moreover, a practical problem lay before him.

Having failed to get into Starfall Academy, he had to find his own path.

Either work for someone else or become an adventurer.

He got annoyed every time he thought about it.

He scratched his hair and continued scrolling through Douling to ease his agitated mood.

Just then, he suddenly came across a live stream.

"This is what happens when you offend the World Purifying Society!!"

The World Purifying Society was very popular right now, recently claiming to have blown up the Trial Secret Realm, and yesterday's "Feces Evasion Technique" performance.

All these actions kept the World Purifying Society's popularity consistently high.

Here, one couldn't help but mention Wang Ledian; his luck was indeed Heaven-Defying.

He captured the World Purifying Society's famous scene, and his traffic soared, definitely making him a fortune.

The Glasses Man subconsciously clicked on the live stream, and a scene came into view... In Secret Realm No. 4399.

Wang Ledian and his companions rode their phantom motorcycles, approaching from a distance.

"Brother Yu, we're almost at the Secret Realm exit, and I haven't even had a chance to experiment!"

Wang Ledian, who was in front, turned his head and complained to the person behind him.

He hadn't gotten a chance to show off his skills on the way.

They did encounter a few lone exotic beasts, but Lin Xingyu's star ray shuttle easily dealt with them.

"We'll grind again when we get back. First, let's get Old Ape's spirit seed sorted out..."

Before Lin Xingyu could finish speaking, he saw several figures standing in the middle of the road ahead.

Black robes, vertical eye masks... Hmm, this attire was very familiar; they were from the World Purifying Society.

"Haha, it's the World Purifying Society! This time, none of you are going to snatch them from me!"

Wang Ledian was very excited. He stopped his motorcycle, grabbed his shield, and walked forward.

To test theCounterattack (reflection damage) effect, he had specifically switched to a shield... A member of the Youchui Squad, holding a wristband, stood in the distance and began to narrate.

"Good morning, everyone, we are members of the World Purifying Society!"

"Yesterday, someone fabricated facts on Douling to slander our society, and they have now been cornered by us in the Secret Realm!"

"Next, we will live stream this judgment!"

Soon, a large number of people had flooded into the live stream.

This was prime time for bathroom breaks, and many people would casually open Douling Short Video.

"It's these sneaky guys from the World Purifying Society again!"

"Are we getting another 'Feces Evasion Technique' performance today?"

"It's said that the World Purifying Society are descendants of the Wa tribe from before the apocalypse, skilled in various evasion techniques."

"Are they the Wa tribe who used to live on Sakura Island? They were wiped out when the apocalypse descended. I didn't expect there to be descendants!"

"I know the Wa tribe's evasion techniques. Digging a hole in the ground is 'Earth Evasion,' covering yourself with a piece of bark is 'Wood Evasion'..."

"Listening to you all, it's not surprising they could develop 'Feces Evasion Technique,' after all, they have a 'fine tradition'!"

"Look! Is that Brother Wrench in front, holding the shield?"

"It really is! Who's the handsome guy behind him? He's so cool!"

"Haha, Brother Wrench is so tough, he actually went forward to challenge them!"

"He's a real man, I'm going to follow him!"

"Brother Wrench is a freshman, right? Won't he be in danger?"

... In the video, Wang Ledian, holding his shield, walked to the front of the formation and very arrogantly gave the opposing side the middle finger.
