446: Section 446
"If I really run into a troublesome Yao Beast and can't beat it, I'll just run... If that doesn't work, I'll just find you guys to solve it!"
Chu Zhengxiong: "..."
"You kid are already a 6-Star Martial Artist now, you're even wearing the 6-Star Martial Artist badge. If even you can't handle it, you're still counting on us?" Chu Zhengxiong rolled his eyes.
He was also incredibly shocked by Lin Yi's growth rate.
Thinking back to the Old District, when they first met.
Back then, Lin Yi was still very green.
Especially when it came to Monster Hunting experience, he was extremely lacking, just like a newbie who didn't understand anything.
He wandered the streets of Xinghai City all alone.
He had no idea how to find Yao Beasts or how to hunt them.
He would just recklessly charge ahead, fighting any Yao Beast he encountered, regardless of its Realm.
Later, when Lin Yi followed Chu Zhengxiong and the others to participate in the battle at the shipping containers.
Facing those followers of the Blood Drop.
At that time, Lin Yi had already become a bit more mature.
And that time, it was also his first time killing someone...
As they had more contact with Lin Yi, they understood him more and more.
Walking all the way to today, Lin Yi had long since grown into a 6-Star Martial Artist.
His Realm was the same as Chu Zhengxiong and Mo Yanfeng's.
Even in Monster Hunting experience, they were evenly matched.
Of course, the reason they thought Lin Yi was at the 6-Star Realm was purely because he was wearing the 6-Star Martial Artist certification badge. If they knew that Lin Yi was already at the 7-Star 4th Rank...
And was about to step out of the Star Quenching Realm.
Their jaws would probably drop to the floor...
Lin Yi smiled and lowered his head to continue eating.
Meanwhile, the four people sitting at the next table—Chen Shuang, Cao Gang, Cui Ya, and Xia Shiyu—
were glancing at their junior, Lin Yi, from time to time.
They were all filled with curiosity about him.
Especially Chen Shuang, whose heart was incredibly shocked.
Lin Yi had only just started his freshman year, yet his mental energy was already terrifyingly strong.
And his Realm was already 6-Star.
In the hundreds of years of history since Xingwu University was founded, he was the first student to obtain a 6-Star badge while still a freshman.
He was the only one. They didn't know if there would be such a Prodigy in the future.
But the Lin Yi before their eyes was already beyond their reach.
As a junior, Chen Shuang would be graduating in another year.
And this year was the year they would successively enter the Monster Hunting Bureau for internships.
Reaching the 4-Star Realm could already be considered a Cultivation Genius.
If one could join the Monster Hunting Bureau at the 5-Star Realm, they would definitely be considered a heaven-favored son.
But this Prodigy Lin Yi was already 6-Star as a freshman...
Even Chen Shuang felt envy and jealousy toward him.
Who wouldn't want such talent?
Just as they were eating, Cui Ya let out a "Ya!"
Immediately, it caused several people, including Chu Zhengxiong and the others at the next table, to turn their heads and look.
"What's wrong?"
Xia Shiyu asked hurriedly.
Holding her phone, Cui Ya quickly said: "The school just sent out a notice saying that Xingwu University students can voluntarily participate in Monster Hunting operations!"
"It also says that in groups, after the Monster Hunting ends, rewards will be given based on the amount of Monster Hunting done!"
"At the highest level, you can be rewarded with a high-grade Cultivation Technique, a 1st-grade Martial Skill, and some composite potions, cash, and so on..."
After listening to what Cui Ya said.
Everyone else also became curious.
They all took out their phones and logged into the software to check.
As a result, they discovered that this matter had already made it to the trending searches.
#Xingwu University encourages Monster Hunting, generous rewards#
#Participating in Monster Hunting early, Xingwu University fully supports it#
#Supporting students in Monster Hunting#
#Slaying demons and eliminating monsters, guarding our home#
One after another, trending searches about Xingwu University.
Rushed into the top twenty of the trending list again.
Even one of them rushed into the top five of the trending list.
Suddenly, the topic of discussion shifted from the few Xingwu University students who were Monster Hunting last night.
To Xingwu University itself.
When Mo Yanfeng, Chu Zhengxiong, and the others saw it, they couldn't help but laugh.
"If you ask me, it has to be Principal Tang. He attracted the limelight to the school, which instead lowered the attention on Lin Yi and the others. He didn't forcefully suppress public opinion, and he perfectly resolved the focus of attention!"
"Ginger is still spicier when it's old!"
After Chu Zhengxiong finished speaking.
Mo Yanfeng laughed: "It's not just that. He also took the opportunity to promote Xingwu University. With the theme of slaying demons and eliminating monsters, while promoting the school, he also got to show off..."
Pfft~
Chu Zhengxiong couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Because such words rarely came out of Mo Yanfeng's mouth.
Yet today, he actually said such things.
Lin Yi glanced at them and didn't care what they were saying.
He lowered his head and continued eating.
Anyway, regardless of whether the school supports Monster Hunting or not, he and Wei Nan and the others were still planning to go tonight.
It's just that after last night's hunting.
Now that the school has completely opened up to Monster Hunting.
He believed that Songshan City tonight would be even livelier than usual.
There might even be more Demon Hunters than Yao Beasts.
How would they kill them? It would be good enough just to find them.
Lin Yi looked at Chu Zhengxiong and the others: "Big Brother Chu, which city has the most rampant Yao Beasts right now?"
"Huh? What are you trying to do?"
Chu Zhengxiong glanced at him, his eyebrows raised slightly.
Mo Yanfeng took a bite of monster meat, seemingly discerning Lin Yi's intentions.
"Nothing much. I'm afraid there will be no monsters left to hunt in Songshan City tonight, so I'm planning to try my luck somewhere else!"
Chu Zhengxiong: "???"
"You treat Monster Hunting like trying your luck? No... what are you thinking?"
"Monster Hunting is such a dangerous thing, and you've turned it into entertainment?"
"You are allowed to hunt monsters, but you are not allowed to be reckless!"
"Just stay honestly in Songshan City. It's not your place to worry about the beasts in other places..."
Chu Zhengxiong quickly stopped this dangerous idea of Lin Yi's.
As a result, Mo Yanfeng, who was sitting on the side, seemed to say to himself: "Right, you must not tell him that the Yao Beast situation in Feng City is quite serious right now!"
"Oh right, and there's Shannan Province, which is relatively close to the Northwest Theater of Operations. It's almost becoming a disaster area!"
"Mo Yanfeng, are you doing this on purpose?"
"Huh? What's wrong? Did I say something?"
Mo Yanfeng was stunned, a flicker of innocent stupidity passing through his eyes.
As if he didn't remember at all what he had just said.
Chu Zhengxiong clenched his fists, wishing he could smash them directly into his face.
To smash that righteous yet stupid face of his.
Especially with the glasses he was wearing, giving people a scholarly, gentle feeling.
It had absolutely nothing to do with Monster Hunting.
Most importantly, Mo Yanfeng also liked to lecture others.
He loved lecturing Chu Zhengxiong... He had long been unable to stand that face of his.
After a while, Chu Zhengxiong finally suppressed the anger in his heart.
He turned back to look at Lin Yi and said: "Don't listen to his nonsense. It's not your place to worry about Shannan Province!"
