Tian Du City.
Early morning.
Lu Ming got up lazily.
"Master.
"It's time for breakfast."
A familiar voice rang in his ears.
Lu Ming stretched himself and realized that Xiao Bai had already prepared breakfast.
He washed up.
He got up.
Lu Ming went to the table to eat.
The morning news was still the familiar local news of Tian Du City, as well as the graduation season of the First College and the progress of the graduation season activities.
"The Millennium School Anniversary has begun …"
"The on-campus job fair is also in full swing …
"The students participating in the graduation season have stepped into the assessment …
"A prisoner escaped from prison. After investigation, it was discovered that he is a student of the First College. He is suspected of destroying public property and is currently wanted …"
Prison break?
Lu Ming took a closer look. Yo, isn't this the lad who came to provoke me …
He actually broke out of prison!
Amazing!
Was it for the graduation season?
Lu Ming's expression stirred slightly.
How amazing was the graduation season this time? Why did this guy break out of prison?!
For this reason …
Lu Ming specially made a trip to the First College.
Afterward …
He did not manage to squeeze in.
Due to the millennium anniversary, the First College was now full of people. Almost all the students and cultivators from the nearby schools had rushed there!
There was a huge crowd!
Looking around, apart from people, what else could it be?
"Brother, what's happening?"
Lu Ming grabbed a guy who was also rushing in and asked.
"Go to the college!"
The student roared.
"I know!"
Lu Ming roared back in an even louder voice. "Why are there so many people?!"
"Because of the graduation season!"
The student roared back. "During the millennium anniversary, the First College activated the Energy Gathering Array. The energy density is more than six times higher than outside. Everyone is here to freeload energy!
"Freeload energy …"
Lu Ming was in a daze.
Energy Gathering Array …
He had heard Miss Xiao Qing mention it before.
This was a special array that condensed energy. The energy was extremely condensed and was more powerful than ordinary arrays. It achieved an effect that was more impressive than six arrays!
It was no wonder that there were so many people here.
"Thank you!"
Lu Ming roared back.
"Why are you shouting so loudly!"
The student roared back.
Lu Ming: "…"
Why does this sound so girly?
…
Not far away.
The cultivators were still squeezing in.
Because the prohibition used force, no matter how many stars a cultivator had, they could only move inside obediently at this time. It looked very tragic.
Lu Ming squeezed for a long time but could not move even half a meter.
At this time, the only thing he wanted to do was to put on a pair of gem-studded gloves and snap his fingers at the crowd …
The world is at peace.
…
Thankfully …
Although there were many cultivators and their progress was slow, most of the people were still advancing …
Well …
After more than two hours, the crowd walked past the gate of the First College and finally arrived at the square in front of the campus. It was much more spacious and the security guards no longer restricted the flow of people.
In the square.
A huge screen of light floated in the air.
Everyone looked up at the data on the screen.
Hmm?
Lu Ming glanced at it, and his heart skipped a beat.
— —
Real-time ranking of the First College Graduation Season Examination.
Temporarily unavailable.
— — —
Ranking?
Lu Ming focused his gaze.
This group of students did not know what the assessment was, but Lu Ming was very clear. They were going to the World of Darkness and Shadows this time. What was the ranking?
What was the evaluation?
"Brother, what's with this ranking?"
Lu Ming looked at the student beside him.
"What else can it be? The ranking of the assessment. "
The student sighed.
"There's a ranking for the assessment?"
Lu Ming thought that it was a standard score and he would graduate if he passed it.
"After all, it's the Millennium Anniversary."
The student sighed and then said mysteriously, "I heard that 90% of the students were eliminated in the first round of the graduation assessment. Almost all of them are Six Stars."
"Isn't that so?"
Another student smiled bitterly. "I was one of the students who was eliminated. I'm a dignified peak five-star but I was defeated in just one round …
"They gave me a black object and asked me to attack …
"I attacked it but failed and was eliminated."
That student complained, "God knows what it was. It looked like a shadow. I attacked it a few times but it pierced through. I couldn't hit it at all!"
Shadow …
Lu Ming's expression stirred slightly.
Was this the preliminary assessment to enter the World of Darkness and Shadows?
"However …"
That student said in a low voice, "I heard that those who entered the assessment will have a surge in strength when they come back! I heard that the college gave everyone an item and asked them to collect something … That item may greatly increase their strength. The college will also offer a generous price to buy it back! "
"Is that true?"
"How can it be false? I heard that a group of big shots worked together to activate the array! I suspect that this time, it's another awesome ancient ruin … "
"It's that amazing?"
"What do you think? This is the Millennium Anniversary! "
"That's true."
The students discussed in a low voice.
Lu Ming listened quietly at the side.
This was indeed the First College. They could actually find a way to increase their strength in the World of Darkness and Shadows! It was a pity that this event had nothing to do with him.
Furthermore …
If these people were to increase their strength, what would happen to them during the on-campus job fair?
Lu Ming sighed.
Was it too much for the Sword Card Master Association to participate in this on-campus job fair?
However …
At this moment.
Shush!
The ranking on the screen changed, causing people to exclaim.
"The ranking has appeared!"
"Wow, are they finally making a move?"
Everyone exclaimed.
— —
Real-time ranking of the First College's graduation season assessment:
First place: Ye Liangfei
Second place: Zhang Xukun
…
— —
？？？
Lu Ming took a closer look. Lu Yan and Zhao Yunshan were both outside the top one hundred!
To hell with it!
His sister could not even get into the top one hundred?!
This ranking …
What the hell was it?!
Lu Ming was filled with doubts.
Shush!
Shush!
The data on the ranking kept changing.
What kind of status and scores would appear later …
He could not understand it at all.
However, there was no doubt that Zhao Yunshan's ranking was outside the top one hundred. Lu Yan's ranking was even lower than Zhao Yunshan's. He could not understand it.
What had happened to his sister?!
Could it be that his sister had not recovered after the previous round of cultivation?
That was possible!
If that was the case …
Lu Ming was filled with worry. Had he really delayed his sister's progress?
…
At this very moment …
Somewhere.
Darkness filled the air.
The entire world was pitch-black, as if countless dark shadows were moving.
Suddenly …
A shadow appeared and disappeared.
The long black robe covered her body and her fluttering hair was hidden under the hood. One could only see a graceful figure.
She wandered in the darkness, seemingly looking for something.
Suddenly …
She paused and stopped in her tracks somewhere.
There was a shadow beast with terrifying strength. Its huge body was like a building and its terrifying aura sent chills down one's spine.
Shush!
She walked to the front of the huge beast and suddenly attacked. The sky was filled with shadow sword gleams, drowning the huge monster.
Pfft!
Pfft!
The huge beast collapsed to the ground.
Dead.
The shadows that filled the sky suddenly dissipated, leaving behind a pitch-black core that was less than one centimeter in size. This was the core of the shadow beast and it had a part of its characteristics.
Well …
She kept the core in her arms.
At this moment …
If one took a closer look, they would discover that she had placed many identical giant beast cores in her arms.
She got up.
She was prepared to leave.
However …
At this moment, another dark shadow flashed by. A figure dressed in the same black robe appeared and silently blocked her path.
"Get lost!"
A cold and sinister thought burst out from her black robe.
The people at the bottom of this world could not communicate at all. However, they could communicate with their thoughts through the black robe.
However …
This might not be a good thing.
"Why bother?"
The person only smiled faintly. "If you were at your peak, I would have left long ago. But now that you have re-cultivated, you are merely a five-star!"
"Lu Yan …
"Put down the things and I might spare your life."
He smiled playfully.
It felt good to be in control of one's destiny.
"These are useless to you."
Lu Yan said calmly.
She recognized this person. He was Zhang Xukun. She had once beaten him up.
"I know."
Zhang Xukun nodded slightly. "Although this shadow beast is not considered powerful, it is very troublesome. It takes a lot of energy to kill it. The cores that we obtain are of no use to us. Therefore, I am very curious. Why did you collect them? You even wasted an entire day! "
"It has nothing to do with you."
Lu Yan said coldly.
"I don't believe that you are so senseless."
Zhang Xukun sneered coldly. "I know you, Lu Yan. You are very smart and very determined. You will not do things that are irrelevant and you will not give up!
"Do you really know me?"
Lu Yan's expression was calm.
"Of course."
Zhang Xukun sighed. "Do you know that you used to be everyone's idol? Your talent, your perseverance, your power, your three measurements …"
Shush!
The surrounding shadows seemed to freeze.
Lu Yan was speechless.
Zhang Xukun changed the topic awkwardly. "However, you didn't take the path that a Swordsman should take! You keep re-cultivating, and you destroy yourself! "
"For that damn brother of yours!"
Zhang Xukun was filled with anger.
Lu Yan was their biggest enemy! She was also their idol!
They worshiped and feared her.
Lu Yan had all the talent and strength that they dreamed of. However, she wasted it like this!
This was simply a disgrace!
"Oh."
Lu Yan nodded calmly.
"It doesn't matter."
Zhang Xukun calmed down very quickly.
After all, he was a Six Stars. He looked quietly at Lu Yan who was only a five-star after re-cultivating. "Since you are willing to give up, pave the way for me.
"I really want to know what you want to do with those behemoth cores!
"I really want to know what that God's favored one, Lu Yan, can think of in this world when she is only a five-star?!
"Those things in your arms …
"What exactly is their purpose?"
Shush!
Cold lights flashed.
He approached her step by step.
"You don't understand me."
Lu Yan only said a few words.
"Don't understand you?"
Zhang Xukun only revealed a sinister smile. "I know you too well. You have all the talents and are almost perfect. Your only weakness is that brother of yours!
"In this world, without that brother, you are perfect!
"There must be a great use for you to collect these!
"And …
"Your character …
"If Lu Yan was at her peak, she would never talk nonsense with me for so long! She would kill me in a second with a domineering sword, instead of wasting time talking nonsense with me here! "
"Even if —
"It's just a few words!
"Why are you willing to listen to my nonsense? Because you are too weak! After re-cultivating, you are too weak. Therefore, you can only listen to my nonsense! You are only a five-star Lu Yan …
"Hehe."
He suddenly pounced on Lu Yan.
Let's end this!
Their former idol …
Swoosh!
A terrifying black shadow shrouded Lu Yan.
However …
Lu Yan merely looked on with indifference. She watched as the black shadow got closer and closer. When it was in front of her, she merely sighed and the sky was suddenly filled with sword gleams.
Pfft!
Cold lights flashed.
The huge black shadow that pounced on her suddenly stopped. There was a hole in Zhang Xukun's chest.
"You …"
Zhang Xukun looked at Lu Yan in front of him in disbelief and then looked at the big hole in his chest.
？？？
How could that be possible …
Lu Yan was only a five-star …
If …
If he had known that this would happen, he would not have been so rash!
No!
Something was wrong!
Was Lu Yan a five-star powerful? He had considered this question but eventually rejected it. This was because the powerful Lu Yan would not listen to his nonsense!
Otherwise, he would have long escaped!
"Before I came in."
Lu Yan looked at him coldly. "The dean came to look for me and warned me not to kill all my people. I gave you a chance."
"…"
Zhang Xukun suddenly turned silent.
After a long time …
He let out a self-deprecating bitter laugh.
Lu Yan …
She was after all that Lu Yan!
Cheez —
His figure drifted.
As the black robe was pierced, the shadow body that condensed under the black robe seemed to be leaking air, turning into countless particles and dissipating.
However …
Before it dissipated, he took a look at Lu Yan and was shocked to discover that Lu Yan had taken out all the cores of the beasts and condensed them together.
Bang!
There was a crisp and clear sound.
The dozens of expensive cores were tempered by Lu Yan into a small piece and then …
Click!
Lu Yan installed the small piece of crystal on the communication device.
Buzz —
The wristband communication device vibrated.
Under the black robe, Lu Yan's lips seemed to reveal a smile. She looked at the signal on the upper right corner of the communication device with satisfaction.
？？？
Zhang Xukun was completely dumbstruck.
Damn!
This was the purpose of Lu Yan's collection of cores?
Why?
If Lu Yan had not changed … She was still the Lu Yan that they knew very well. Since that was the case, Lu Yan might only have one motive …
He suddenly understood.
Lu Yan killed those beasts and Lu Yan collected those cores just to have a signal on the communication device! In order to be able to contact Lu Ming at any time?!
Crap!
That damn brother helper!!!
