Chapter 16: Gloomy Cat Forest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ye Buzhou was in a good mood when he arrived, but he was very depressed when he left. “Hmph, this young man hasn’t been beaten by society. When the time comes, he’ll see the cruel world outside.”

“Hello, Principal Ye.” Principal Ye, who had just alighted from the bus, met Zhou Zhengyang and the other teachers.

Ye Buzhou shot them a glance and said angrily, “You guys are too useless. How can you make such a big mistake in this mission? You still have to be strong when forging iron. The strong can’t be too reliant on their equipment. Go back and teach the first place team in this Summer Dungeon Hunt a lesson.”

“???”

Zhou Zhengyang smiled bitterly and began to wonder. “He was the one who confirmed the first place team. Now, are you falling out with me? As expected, you’re old and might have Alzheimer’s disease..”

Fortunately, Ye Buzhou couldn’t read minds. Otherwise, he would have killed Zhou Zhengyang with a single slap.

…

On the bus, Li Feng was also rather depressed. Why did he meet such a baffling old man? However, this was also a good thing.

In the past, he was still worried about going to college. He didn’t expect someone to deliver benefits today. Very quickly, he didn’t think too much about it and opened the game to continue leveling up. Unless the sky collapsed, nothing could stop him from playing games.

This took him two hours.

He had finally upgraded the Assassin character from Level 5 to Level 7. He was still three levels away from having new skills to learn. This made Li Feng somewhat excited.

However, at this moment, the bus finally returned to Chengde County. Li Feng had no choice but to put away his phone and prepare to go home.

“Everyone, wait a moment.”

At this moment, Zhou Zhengyang spoke. He recalled what Ye Buzhou had said before he left and decided to teach Yang Wei and the other two a lesson.

Ye Buzhou had once said that the strong couldn’t rely too much on equipment. He was clearly talking about Yang Wei and the other two. Meanwhile, Li Feng, who was addicted to gaming, was automatically excluded.

After thinking about this, he looked at Yang Wei and the others with a sharp gaze and said indifferently, “The college entrance examination is about to begin. Although some people have obtained a good ranking during this Summer Dungeon Hunt, the college entrance examination requires one to rely on one’s own strength. One cannot rely on external forces. I hope that everyone will work hard to improve yourselves during this period of time and not walk down the crooked path.”

“…”

Upon understanding the meaning behind Zhou Zhengyang’s words, Yang Wei and the other two appeared very innocent. Could it be that it was wrong to have too much money at home?

Meanwhile, Jiang Sheng chuckled and said casually, “Junior Sister Ling’er, the college entrance examination is different from the activities organized by the organization. It’s more standardized and no one is allowed to take advantage of other people. Next year, Junior Sister will be taking the college entrance examination. You have to prepare well.”

“Got it, Senior Brother.”

Lin Ling’er nodded her head seriously. Then, she asked curiously, “I wonder what Senior Brother’s goal for this year’s college entrance examination is? Is it Beihai College?”

Upon hearing this name, the corner of Jiang Sheng’s mouth twitched as he coughed lightly. “Junior Sister Ling’er, the Beihai College that you mentioned is a supreme college that is ranked third in the Great Xia Kingdom. Although Senior Brother here is confident, there is always someone stronger among the strong. I can only say that I will try my best. However, I’m more inclined towards the Blood Iron College. This college has been constantly sending their students on punitive expeditions in recent years, and it is very suitable for young people like me who have just left school to train in.”

“Oh!” Lin Ling’er calmly replied.

Meanwhile, at this moment, Zhou Zhengyang had also reached a critical part of his speech. He said, “Your strength is not bad. This year, there’s hope of applying to first-rate colleges like the Snow Eagle College and the Iron Blood College. In the previous years, only a small number of people had the qualifications for this, but people have always managed to succeed. I hope that your batch will not disappoint me.”

“Wow, Director Zhou thinks too highly of us. The Iron Blood Academy is a first-rate college in the Great Xia Kingdom. In the entire Great Xia Kingdom, there are only more than ten of such first-rate colleges. To be able to enter such a college, they can be considered experts among the Primary-Grade players.” Many students sighed.

Meanwhile, Jiang Sheng raised his head slightly, looking somewhat confident as he secretly glanced at Lin Ling’er.

However, at this moment, Lin Ling’er clearly didn’t care about his thoughts. Lin Ling’er frowned and looked at Li Feng, who was yawning not far away.

“He;s finally done talking. I can go home and rest well. Then, I can continue fighting.” Then, Li Feng mumbled, “Teacher Zhou is good at everything, but he’s too naggy.”

It was the last month before the college entrance examination. Thus, everyone had very flexible schedules. The effects of the Summer Dungeon Hunt also appeared. Many students chose to enter the dungeon during this period of time to increase their strength.

However, everyone’s first choice was still the Loraine Depths as the dimensional creatures inside were easier to deal with. Of course, there were also many confident students who chose to enter the Thunder Gobzan dungeon to train.

Due to the fact that everyone had exited the dungeon in a timely manner and that there was a protection mechanism for the Primary-Rank dungeons, there were no casualties during this school event. As a result, many students became bolder.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei and the other two stayed in the Loraine Depths to train. During this time, they also invited Li Feng as they wanted to train with him.

However, he was rejected by Li Feng, who said that he was busy playing games. Yang Wei and the other two were helpless. Thus, they could only go and challenge the dungeons themselves. At the same time, they envied how leisurely Li Feng was.

“You’re too depraved like this. No, I’ll take you to clear a dungeon.”

On the third day of the first week, Lin Ling’er found the address of the Li Feng family from somewhere and actually came to find him. It seemed like she was still brooding over the fact that Li Feng had fallen.

Li Feng was also very convinced by this tireless young girl. However, he still refused and said, “No.”

He was going to upgrade his Assassin character to Level 10 over the next week. How could he waste his time in a dungeon?

“You disappoint me too much!” In the end, Lin Ling’er stomped her feet and left helplessly.

Li Feng ignored her and prepared a cup of instant noodles. Then, he lay on the sofa happily and opened his game as he mumbled, “How can there be a sense of leveling up when clearing dungeons in real life? To me, the Loraine Depths dungeon is no longer difficult. Perhaps I can try the Gloomy Cat Forest.”

The Boss in the Loraine Depths dungeon was only equivalent to the combination of two evolved Goblins. To the current Li Feng, this was not enough.

Today, he wanted to try out a new dungeon as new dungeons provided more experience. Thus, he got to work. Li Feng immediately controlled his Assassin character and entered the Gloomy Cat Forest.

When he entered the Gloomy Cat Forest, the surrounding environment immediately turned dark, as if it was sunset. Li Feng furrowed his eyebrows, but he was not very worried. After all, the Assassin Class was very agile and was the nemesis of these cat demons.

He walked alone in the silent forest. Other than the sound of the wind, there was only a rustling sound as he stepped on dried leaves. The environment here made him somewhat scared.

Not long after, Li Feng discovered a cat demon crawling under a tree. It was fast asleep.

This cat demon’s body was yellow and small. It was only the size of two of his palms. Its appearance even looked endearingly silly.
