Chapter 323 The Joint Entrance Examination Ends!
Chapter 323 The Joint Entrance Examination Ends!
10,000 credits!
Three extraordinary achievements, that's 30,000 credits!
What does that even mean?!
Can you drink Star Energy Essence like water?!
Lin Yuechan smiled upon seeing Lin Qiye's reaction.
In fact, Lin Qiye also exploited a bug.
Since its founding, Galaxy Martial Arts University has produced a constant stream of geniuses and prodigies. Although there have been cases of students reaching the extraordinary level, there has never been a case of someone killing a peer from the Abyss.
Even someone like Liu Ruyan, hailed as a once-in-a-century genius, chose to go into seclusion before graduation, aiming for a breakthrough and hoping to make a name for herself in the Star System Dragon Tiger Tournament.
He has never had the record of killing an Abyss Transcendent.
Therefore, when the school initially formulated the rule of "slaying the Abyss Transcendent and rewarding 1 credits", it was more of a "spend a fortune to buy a horse's bones" mentality.
It was intended to encourage students to challenge their limits; we never really thought any student would be able to complete it.
As it turned out, Lin Qiye really did kill three Abyss Transcendents in one go during this Ten Schools Joint Examination, and he had all the evidence, including witnesses from the city's garrison.
As witnesses themselves, Si Qingwan and I certainly couldn't steal Lin Qiye's enormous credit.
After all, he's their little man.
……
The group embarked on their journey home.
The tension and vigilance I felt upon arrival have long been replaced by the silent awe I feel now.
All eyes, whether intentionally or unintentionally, were drawn to the tall, upright figure walking at the very front.
Among the extraordinary experts of the city's garrison, there were even graduates who were once among the top 10. But at this moment, the only thing left in their eyes when they looked at Lin Qiye was pure awe.
The students kept replaying the miraculous scene in their minds, trying again and again to understand the power that was completely beyond their comprehension.
Finally, the huge crack at the entrance, emitting a ghostly blue light, reappeared in everyone's sight.
A graceful figure waited patiently.
It was Si Qingwan.
At her feet, two specially made alloy boxes were placed quietly to contain the remains of abyssal creatures.
Seeing everyone return, Si Qingwan's usually affectionate peach blossom eyes instantly shone with a captivating light.
She straightened up and stepped forward, her gaze immediately falling on Lin Qiye. She looked him up and down, and only after confirming he was unharmed did she seem to breathe a sigh of relief. She then gave Lin Yuechan and Zhao Mingxuan a charming smile, her tone carrying a hint of languid complaint:
"You're finally back!"
Lin Yuechan walked to her side, looked at the two alloy boxes, and asked in a deep voice, "Is everything taken care of?"
"Of course," Si Qingwan nodded, then rolled her eyes at Lin Qiye, "You two are quick to run away, leaving me to do all the dirty and tiring work of cleaning up the battlefield."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mingxuan immediately bowed respectfully to Si Qingwan: "Teacher Si, thank you for your hard work!"
Then, he waved to the city garrison squad behind him.
Two team members immediately stepped forward and opened the two alloy boxes.
A dense aura of the abyss instantly emanated from it.
Inside the box were two mangled remains, so badly blasted that they were barely recognizable as human.
"That's right..." a seasoned veteran of the city's garrison confirmed solemnly, "Judging from the residual energy fluctuations, it is indeed a transcendent-level Abyss Corruptor!"
This conclusion was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, once again giving everyone present a jolt!
There really are three!
Zhao Mingxuan's gaze fell on Lin Qiye once again.
That look in his eyes was incredibly complex.
He took a deep breath and said to Lin Yuechan and Lin Qiye in an unprecedentedly solemn tone, "Principal Lin, Lin Qiye, this matter is of great importance! I must report it to my superiors immediately! This joint examination of ten schools... I'm afraid it will have to be terminated ahead of schedule."
Lin Yuechan nodded, indicating her understanding.
Given the severity of the Abyss invasion, the Ten Schools Joint Examination could no longer continue.
The safety of all students must be the top priority.
Lin Qiye's brows furrowed slightly involuntarily.
Early termination?
That won't do!
I'm... only just starting to enjoy myself!
He couldn't help but ask, "The students' safety certainly needs to be considered, but I think I can still do it! I really want to contribute to the Empire! Aren't there still so many Abyssal Rifts? I can help clear them."
Lin Qiye's words were righteous and indignant!
This sudden statement stunned everyone present.
Zhao Mingxuan stared at him in utter disbelief.
Assist with the cleanup?
To contribute to the empire?
Young man, do you know what you just did?
Do you know what situation you're facing right now?
We're discussing how to ensure your safety. How could you... still be thinking of jumping into a fire pit?
The extraordinary experts of the city guards behind Zhao Mingxuan also looked at Lin Qiye with strange expressions.
However, after their initial surprise, Lin Yuechan and Si Qingwan exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.
They knew this little boy too well.
He's not the kind of person who gets scared off by danger.
But they won't allow it either!
Zhao Mingxuan finally snapped out of his daze and coughed.
"Lin Qiye, I completely understand how you feel."
"However, this matter is not child's play. The appearance of the Abyss Transcendent has already shown that the danger level of this Abyss anomaly has far exceeded the scope of the Joint Examination."
"This is my duty, and it's also the duty of our city's garrison. We will handle the aftermath." He looked at Lin Qiye, his tone becoming extremely solemn. "And what you need to do now is return safely."
Lin Yuechan rolled her eyes at Lin Qiye and, without saying a word, pulled him away.
"Alright, go!"
Lin Qiye was helpless!
I just finished eating a duck that was covered in oil, and it just flew away!
It seems that he can only re-enter the abyss once his status is updated and he is no longer a student.
Just like Lin Yuechan...
