Outside Ye Mu's dorm, the door opened before Lu Ze could knock.
Ye Mu walked out excitedly. When he saw Lu Ze and the girls, he was dazed. Then, he smiled. "I heard you guys were here, so I wanted to go out and see. I didn't expect you guys to be here already."
Lu Zewei smiled. "It's rare for me to come back, so I wanted to come and see you guys. Long time no see …"
Before Lu Ze could finish, an excited voice sounded from behind Ye Mu. "Ye Mu, is Lin Ling here?"
Lu Ze: "???"
Lin Ling: "???"
The two looked behind Ye Mu in a daze.
Ye Mu saw their gazes, and his frivolous face showed some displeasure.
He smiled awkwardly. "Qianhua, they're here."
Then, he opened the door and let them in.
Lu Ze and Lin Ling looked strangely at Tianyuan Qianhua and then at Ye Mu.
Ye Mu laughed dryly. "Um, I'll inform the others."
With that, he ran out of the room.
Lu Ze looked strangely at Ye Mu.
'Wait, what's going on?'
'Something doesn't seem right.'
At this moment, Tianyuan Qianhua hugged Lin Ling. "Lin Ling, we haven't seen each other for almost a year. I missed you so much."
Lin Ling smiled. "Mhm, I've been quite busy recently."
Tianyuan Qianhua's personality was a little carefree. She smiled and nodded. "I know. You guys are really amazing now."
Then, she said excitedly, "We've been watching the Four-Race Tournament. I didn't expect you to be a planetary state already."
Then, she said dejectedly, "In comparison, Yuqi, Jessica, and I are much worse."
The four of them weren't that far apart during the freshmen entrance test. Yet, in just a short year, the gap had grown to this extent.
Lin Ling grinned and glanced at Lu Ze. Her eyes were filled with pride.
If it wasn't for this guy, she wouldn't be that much stronger than Tianyuan Qianhua and the other two.
Then, Tianyuan Qianhua looked at Lu Ze and giggled. "But Azay is still the best. He's much stronger than Ye Mu. When Azay won the Four-Race Tournament, you guys didn't know how crazy the dorms were. "
Lu Ze smiled embarrassedly. "It's alright."
Praises from strangers and friends gave a different feeling. Tianyuan Qianhua's praise still made Lu Ze feel a little good.
At this moment, Lin Ling asked strangely, "Qianhua, are you and Ye Mu now?"
Tianyuan Qianhua blushed and nodded shyly. "Mhm, we're together now."
Lu Ze and Lin Ling looked at each other in disbelief.
When they were freshmen, these two were always fighting. They didn't expect that a year later, they were already together.
As though sensing Lu Ze and Lin Ling's strangeness, Tianyuan Qianhua smiled. "A lot of things happened."
Then, she smiled and said, "I'll tell you about it later."
Lin Ling nodded. "Mhm."
At this moment, Ye Mu brought Xuan Yuji, jESSICA, Ian, and Cyril over.
They smiled when they saw Lu Ze and the others.
Xuan Yuji smiled. "Lu Ze, Ling Ling, long time no see. My sister told me about you guys yesterday."
Lin Ling was stunned. "Sister Yuqi was here yesterday?"
Xuan Yuji nodded. "Mhm, she rested here last night. She went to Planet Jinyao to cultivate in the morning."
Xuan Yuji felt awkward when she thought about how her sister's eyes lit up when she talked about Lu Ze. She felt like she didn't know her sister anymore.
However, she wouldn't say that out loud.
Ian's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Ze. He ran over and looked up at Lu Ze. "Azay, I didn't expect you to come back to see us. We watched the Four-Race Tournament. You're amazing!"
Lu Ze's mouth spasmed as he looked at Ian's delicate face and her purple eyes that flashed with admiration.
Was this guy done for? Why did he still look like a girl after so long?
He patted Ian's shoulder. "Ian, you have to remember that you're a boy!"
Ian was slightly stunned when he heard that. He was a little confused, but he still nodded. "Oh."
He looked very obedient.
Lu Ze: "…"
He felt like he had to stay away from this guy.
Cyril still had his signature silly smile. "Azay, long time no see. You did a great job getting first place in the Four-Race Tournament!"
Lu Ze grinned. "Of course."
JESSICA was still the same as before. She was very shy and just smiled and nodded at Lu Ze and the others as a greeting. Then, she quietly listened to them talk.
After the new students of Federal University arrived, they sat down on the sofa and chatted.
Ye Mu and the others talked about the missions they did and the things they encountered.
They weren't as strong as Lu Ze and the others. Although they were only doing missions in the Federation, there were still some dangers.
Fortunately, they were together and didn't encounter any life-threatening situations.
Lu Ze and the others talked about what happened at the Void Border. This made Ye Mu and the others look forward to it.
Even among the students who graduated from Federal University, only a very small number of them could go to the Void Border to do missions after graduation. Those who went there right after graduation were even rarer.
As far as Ye Mu and the others knew.
Senior Margaret, Elton, and Li Qingyun, who were originally in their fourth year, were the top geniuses of Federal University and Emperor Capital College. After graduation, they chose to stay in the Dawn System and accept missions to improve their cultivation.
Until a while ago, senior schoolmate Margaret just broke through to the mortal evolution state and was given the title of young duke. As for going to the Void Border to do missions, she didn't know how long she would have to wait.
Lu Ze and the others listened curiously to Ye Mu and the others talk about the situation at the school. After hearing about senior schoolmate Margaret and the others, Lu Ze fell into deep thought.
He had interacted with senior schoolmate Margaret a few times before. Her personality was good, and her god art was very strong. It was a stealth type god art and a burst of speed type god art.
If she used her divine ability well, she would definitely be an assassin that would make people tremble in fear.
If he wanted to use red orbs to make the new generation of the human race stronger, she would be a good choice.
Of course, Lu Ze would definitely give it to Ye Mu and the others when the time came.
Everyone chatted for a long time. Although there was a huge gap in strength between them now, friendship did not depend on strength. Everyone was still chatting and laughing like they were at the entrance exam, talking about their dreams and the future.
Then, Alice even made a table of spirit food. Everyone ate together and chatted for a while. When the sky turned from blue to dark green, everyone parted ways.
Before leaving, Lu Ze left them some cultivation resources and academic credits that he didn't need at all.
After all, with his current situation, if he really wanted something, he just needed to tell the old man, and the old man would agree. Lu Ze didn't have academic credits at all.
Ye Mu and the others didn't refuse.
…
In the night sky, Lu Ze and the others flew slowly towards the small house in Nangong Jing.
Lu Zewei smiled and sighed. "I didn't expect Ye Mu to be with Qianhua."
Lin Ling reached out and tucked her messy short hair behind her ear. She smiled and said, "I didn't expect it either. He has become much more mature."
She thought that with Ye Mu's playboy personality, he would definitely be high now. She didn't expect him to be in a relationship. Compared to before, he wouldn't be so flirtatious.
Lu Li smiled and said, "After all, so many things have happened to them."
There was always danger when going out on missions. The two of them supported each other. If there was a little opportunity, they would naturally be together.
The four of them chatted and soon returned to the house in Nangong Jing.
As soon as they entered, Lu Ze and the others saw two big and one small salted fish lying on the sofa.
When they saw them return, the three of them looked up in unison with tears in their eyes. Nangong Jing said, "You guys are finally back. We are starving to death!"
Lu Ze: "…"
Alice: "…"
Lu Li: "…"
Lin Ling: "…"
Mhm … I forgot that there are three people waiting to be fed at home.
…
At night, after comforting Nangong Jing, Kaza Akizuki, and Ying Ying, they returned to their own rooms and began cultivating.
Lu Ze sat cross-legged on the bed and entered the Pocket Hunting Dimension.
It was still the familiar forest. As soon as Lu Ze appeared, a low roar came from behind him.
"Roar!"
Lu Ze felt a sharp chi shooting towards him from behind.
He raised a brow, and blood lightning flashed around him as he disappeared from the spot.
Screech!
A green wind blade sliced past where Lu Ze was standing and cut a huge hole in the tree trunk.
Lu Ze looked in the direction the wind blade came from. It was a green fox-like creature with a level-8 planetary state cultivation level.
Lu Ze had encountered such a creature before. It had wind god art and wasn't weak.
Of course, it couldn't compare with Lu Ze.
Lu Ze disappeared from the spot and instantly appeared before the fox. His right fist was covered in dark golden runes as he punched its head heavily.
Rumble!
With one punch, the beast's head emitted an ear-piercing sound of bones cracking, and its vitality dissipated on the spot.
A few seconds later, the body turned to dust. Lu Ze picked up the orbs and a blue crystal on the ground and disappeared from the spot.
Then, Lu Ze began his journey of hunting.
Lu Ze's cultivation level was at level-5 planetary state, and his combat power could barely reach the star state. Ordinary level-8 planetary state beasts were no match for him. He could even take on a level-9 planetary state.
With such power, as long as he was careful, he could survive until night time.
Of course, Lu Ze had never survived until the sun rose the next day.
At night, star state beasts were more active. It was as though they didn't need to sleep. They were always running around. If Lu Ze wasn't careful, he would be taken away by a boss from somewhere.
Ten hours later, the sky was gradually darkening.
Lu Ze was walking through the forest. His pajamas were tattered, and there were some blood stains on his body. Of course, his injuries were healed.
There was a smile on his face, and he was happy.
He killed a level-9 planetary state beast and more than ten level-8 planetary state beasts. Of course, there were more low-level ones.
There were tens of blue crystals. It was enough for them to use for many days. There were also nine blood crystals. After using them, his body would increase again.
At this moment, Lu Ze came to the border of the forest. He stopped when he saw the scene before him.
Outside the forest, there was a fissure that was a few kilometers wide. It was pitch black below. He couldn't even see what was going on inside.
However, there would be beast roars coming out of the fissure from time to time.
Lu Ze raised a brow. He had a bold idea.
He had appeared underground before. Could this be the entrance?
Thinking about the easy environment, Lu Ze dived down without hesitation.
With his current power, he should be able to stay down there for a long time. With the one-use rune he encountered last time, he was looking forward to it.
