In a pitch-black alley, a young man sneaked in. After confirming that there was no one around, he darted into a house.
He fiddled with it for a while, and the pitch-black house lit up with specks of light. The light eventually formed a blurry human figure.
The young man knelt down excitedly. "Master, why are you looking for me?"
"Do you know Zhou Bai?"
The young man said, "I think he's the overall champion of this year's Level 503?"
"He'll enter the Special Studies class next. Your primordial spirit is already at 999, right? Don't break through and maintain the peak of Level 0. That way, he'll definitely try to challenge you in the assessment two months later.
I want you to accidentally cripple him so that he'll have no choice but to withdraw from the school and leave the Dao School. Do you understand? "
The young man revealed a sinister smile. "Don't worry, Master. Leave it to me." Saying this, he said expectantly, "Then when can I leave this place and carry out the Sky Demon transformation ritual?"
"Don't worry. After completing this mission, someone will naturally come to pick you up and take you away."
...
Three days later.
'Taking me away is only part of the plan? Is the real target the Mystic Night Chamber where the resources are stored? '
In the room, Zhou Bai lay on the bed, still recalling the events that had transpired. It was not like in the movies where the truth was revealed in the end.
In this major incident, there were still many things shrouded in fog, making Zhou Bai unable to see the truth.
This time, the Dao School had suffered heavy losses, and Du Bing had died protecting Xia Li and the others.
After that, Zhou Bai also heard that Yun Shi had fought to the death with the Sky Demon in order to protect the civilians and had finally died of exhaustion.
There were also countless other students... civilians... teachers...
Since there was Xing Jun, would there be others among the teachers and students who were also Sky Demon's lackeys?
"Sky Demon... Sigh, I'll continue cultivating.
"I have to become stronger."
Zhou Bai studied diligently until the next morning.
Next, he was called to the office. It was said that he was going to be given the reward for this year's champion, and there were also important arrangements to be told.
When he entered the office, he saw that Zuo Dao and Qian Wangsun were already waiting there.
Lv Chongyang, Sun Yuzhen, and even Zhao Shouyi sat on the side.
Seeing Zhou Bai come in, Lv Chongyang nodded to him. Zhao Shouyi said directly, "Since Zhou Bai is here, I will say it directly. Starting from next week, the three of you will be directly enrolled in the special course. Prepare for the exchange competition a year from now. "
Special class?
Hearing this term, Zhou Bai was slightly stunned. He really didn't know what it was for.
Lv Chongyang seemed to have seen through his confusion and took the initiative to explain, "Now that the situation is difficult, in order to better cultivate genius students, we have chosen some people from the entire school to form a special class. There are special resources and points, so they can improve their cultivation faster."
As soon as he heard this, Zhou Bai understood and nodded in agreement.
On the other hand, Heretic and Qian Wangsun had no reason to object.
Shouyi Zhao continued, "After entering the special course, the three of you will receive an extra 200 points every month. If your cultivation improves and you rank high in the special course, the extra points will increase. "
Zhou Bai's eyes lit up. An extra 200 points meant that he would have 400 points every month to eat and drink. He finally didn't have to eat human food every day.
Although human food was also a transcendent item that could quickly recover one's energy and stamina, eating it every day would make one feel nauseous.
Shouyi Zhao said, "Also, I will get someone to distribute the points that you have obtained in this assessment. By the way, you still don't know the total points, right? Zhou Bai, you are first, Heretic, you are second, and Qian Wangsun is fifth. "
Heretic raised an eyebrow when he heard this. He turned to look at Zhou Bai and said unhappily, "Zhou Bai did beat me in actual combat, but he came last in the theory exam. Even if his cultivation was higher than mine in the second round, it doesn't make sense for him to be first, right?"
Lv Chongyang said, "Zhou Bai's Primordial Spirit is already 287, and his Dao Transformation Degree is 5.1%."
The entire office instantly fell silent. Heretic and Qian Wangsun suddenly turned to look at Zhou Bai, making Zhou Bai feel a little embarrassed.
Zhou Bai said embarrassedly, "Actually, my Primordial Spirit isn't 287 …"
Heretic and Qian Wangsun heaved a sigh of relief.
Lv Chongyang and Shouyi Zhao looked over in surprise.
Zhou Bai said, "I thought about it this morning and thought it would be better to round it up, so I got 290."
What do you mean by round it up, so you got 290?
Do you think this is change?
Qian Wangsun felt as if someone had stabbed him in the chest. Heretic also took a deep breath, turned his head away, and said gloomily, "I'm fine."
Shouyi Zhao stroked his chin and looked at Zhou Bai with a smile. "I know you skipped class for two months. It's normal for geniuses to have some special traits. Since you got first place in the overall score of the exam, I can let you go.
You can choose the courses in the special studies class, but if I find out that your grades have dropped, you have to go to class obediently. Got it? "
Zhou Bai hurriedly nodded. This was permission to skip class. He felt his back straightening up even more.
Shouyi Zhao then looked at Qian Wangsun. "I'll send someone over to help you regrow your severed limbs in the next few days. Don't worry."
Qian Wangsun trembled with excitement when he heard that. Zhou Bai also looked at him in surprise. He patted Qian Wangsun's shoulder and said with a smile, "Congratulations."
Shouyi Zhao looked at Heretic and pondered for a moment before saying, "Heretic, I know you're very eager to excel. But when it comes to cultivation, there are fast and slow, strong and weak. It's very normal.
No one can stand at the top forever. After you enter the special studies class, you'll be the weakest as the lowest grade. I hope you can adjust your attitude and cultivate well. "
Heretic said gloomily, "I know."
Next, Shouyi Zhao reminded the three of them again and let them go to collect their points before leaving.
Sighing softly, Lv Chongyang said, "Sigh, I don't know if it's good or bad for them to enter the special studies class so early."
The best resources were limited. The special studies class was created for the sake of reasonable distribution.
The special studies class was chosen by Dong Hua Dao School with the best resources. They were trained together in the hope that they would become the mainstay against the Sky Demon in the future.
However, there had never been a case of first-year students joining the class two months after school started.
After all, they had only been in school for two months, and their achievements were limited. They were too far behind the students of the previous years.
If they joined now, they might suffer a setback. Once their confidence was worn down, their Dao heart would become unstable, and they would start to doubt themselves. That would be bad.
There were even a few young geniuses in history who became mediocre because they suffered a crushing defeat.
Therefore, Lv Chongyang was still a little worried about letting the three of them join the special studies class after just two months of cultivation.
"They're not kids. They don't need a nanny." Shouyi Zhao shook his head. "The situation is getting worse. How can the frontline soldiers bear the pressure from the Sky Demon alone?
The Celestial Court, the people, the government, the police, and even us will be under pressure. We have to step up the training of the students.
Moreover, if Zhou Bai and the other two can't even bear this little bit of pressure, then their future achievements won't be too high. "
After talking about the three students, Shouyi Zhao's eyes turned solemn again. "I've never heard of the Sky Demon accepting the surrender of humans. In the past, they always killed anyone they saw.
However, since Xing Jun has successfully betrayed the Sky Demon, how many people in Dong Hua City are loyal to the Sky Demon? "
Lv Chongyang asked, "Have the higher-ups started investigating?"
"They're investigating in secret. This matter can't be carried out with great fanfare. The fact that there are humans defecting to the Sky Demon must be kept a top secret. Otherwise, the hearts of the people will be shaken, and the city will be in danger of being wiped out."
Lv Chongyang nodded. He also understood that if this matter was carried out with great fanfare, they might be able to catch many traitors. However, once the fact that there were people defecting to the Sky Demon was widely exposed, how many people would want to follow suit?
Not everyone was a person with lofty ideals who was willing to fight to the death. In the past, the Sky Demon killed anyone he saw and didn't accept surrender at all. This was why the humans were united and united.
But now, once the traitors were exposed, the humans who had been united against the Sky Demon for more than a hundred years would no longer be able to unite.
But how long could he keep it a secret?
"A storm is brewing."
