Inside the cave, Li Yao used a flame glyph array to carefully roast a wild rabbit. At the same time, he set up a breeze glyph array to gather all the aura in one place so that the demon beasts outside the cave would not be able to smell it.
A knowing smile appeared on his thin face, and his deep black eyes seemed to grow even bigger.
After traveling alone in the Wasteland for a month, Li Yao's appearance had undergone an earth-shattering change. Not only had his body become thinner and longer, the metallic luster on his skin had also been completely retracted into his body.
At first glance, he looked like a rock that could be seen everywhere in the Wasteland.
Only when he discovered prey and suddenly burst out would his speed and strength soar to the extreme, instantly transforming into the most savage hunter.
In a month, he had not only accumulated credits, but also hunting skills.
The demon beasts of the Wasteland were the most treacherous, the most cunning, the most vigilant, and the most adept at hiding and ambushing.
In order to hunt such demon beasts, one had to be more treacherous, more cunning, and more adept at hiding and ambushing than them.
As he hunted, he also learned. All the demon beasts were Li Yao's teachers.
He learned the viper's hiding, the centipede's wandering, the scorpion's one-hit kill, the flying lizard's gliding, and the spider's trap and bait techniques.
Then, he melted the skills with the survival skills that he had honed in the magical equipment graveyard for more than ten years and turned them into even more powerful hunting skills, making him an expert of survival and hunting in the wild and a real expert of guerilla warfare!
"One month, 10,000 credits."
"Even if I can pass the utility patent, I will only get 3,000 credits. I still need 7,000 credits."
"The demon beasts in the southern part of the Wasteland are too weak. Just by hunting in this area, I won't be able to get 7,000 credits in a month."
"Moreover, the utility patent is not guaranteed to pass. If I were to be rejected at a crucial moment, that would be awkward. "
"It seems that I have to take a risk and head further north!"
The Xing Yao Federation's sphere of influence was mainly concentrated in the southern part of the Wasteland. The further north one went, the fewer towns there were. The more sparse the human population was, the more likely it was for powerful demonic beasts to appear.
In order to obtain ten thousand points in a month, Li Yao was ready to risk his life.
He planned to spend another fifteen days wandering in the south of the moor.
If he couldn't accumulate enough credits, or if his application for the utility patent failed, he would go to the northern part of the Wasteland to explore the more dangerous regions!
"Let's go back to school first and settle the score for this trip."
Weighing the heavy backpack, Li Yao smiled in satisfaction.
He had gained a lot from this trip as well. He should be able to exchange it for a few hundred credits.
After returning to school, he exchanged his spoils of war for credits and went to the infirmary to treat his minor injuries. Before he could catch his breath, he received an invitation from Ding Lingdang, saying that she wanted to celebrate his breakthrough of 30,000 credits.
"Li Yao is here! Li Yao is here! "
In front of the small house in the sea of bamboo, the colorful parrot was squawking, and the door opened automatically.
Li Yao had just entered the door. A strong gust of wind blew against his face.
Caught off guard, he was caught by Ding Ling Dong.
The latter also pinched his arm hard. He grimaced in pain.
"What's going on? Didn't you say you wanted to treat me to a meal to celebrate my breakthrough of 30,000 credits? "
"Of course we have to eat, but first."
Ding Ling Dong pinched him again, and said angrily, "Let this sister pinch you twice to vent her anger, you stinking brat. You quietly broke through the 30,000 credits mark so quickly, breaking Peng Hai's record of being the fastest to break through 30,000 credits! "
Li Yao was surprised: "What does that have to do with you?"
Ding Ling Dong's beautiful eyes opened wider than a cow's eyes, and said angrily:
"I was originally the second fastest, but now I've been pushed to third by you. Do you think it has anything to do with me? You're really a monster, maybe one day you'll be stronger than me, then wouldn't I be bullied to death by you? No, now that I'm stronger than you, I'll trample on you first, and then we'll talk about it later! "
She pinched him twice again, and exclaimed:
"What's going on, I haven't seen you for a month, and your muscles have become even more solid. When I pinch you, it's like pinching a stone, not interesting at all. Forget it, I'm not playing anymore, quickly come and eat!"
Li Yao was speechless. He walked into the living room, and when he saw the dinner on the table, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry:
"You said you wanted to eat a meal to celebrate, so you're treating me to instant noodles?"
Holding a bowl of instant noodles, Ding Lingdang sat on the ground and began to eat. While eating, she was still working on the crystal processor. She said vaguely, "Thank you for your help.
"Recently, I've been too busy with work, so I didn't have time to cook fish and meat. Just put up with it, I even added two braised eggs for you!"
She paused for a moment, and then said:
"I've seen your hunting results, and you've done a good job. From your wounds, your 《Sand Storm Saber Technique》 has already reached perfection. Even if I were to hunt in the southern part of the Wasteland, I wouldn't be able to do better than you!"
"However, there aren't many high-value demon beasts in the southern part of the Wasteland. If you want to get 10,000 points in a month, you have to go to the northern part, where high-level demon beasts congregate."
"I know that you're a crazy kid, and you like to take risks. Maybe one day you'll sneak to the northern part of the Wasteland and lose your life there. That's why I specifically asked you to come here today, so that you don't have to worry."
"Recently, I've been too busy, so I can't spare any time. However, after I'm done with my work, I'll have a few days off. At that time, I'll accompany you to the northern part of the Wasteland and help you hold the fort!"
Li Yao's heart was warmed.
It turned out that this was the real reason why Ding Ling Dong had asked him to come here.
With Ding Ling Dong, one of the youngest Building Foundation Stage experts in the Federation, holding the fort, the danger would be greatly reduced, and he would be able to hunt demon beasts more easily.
Holding the instant noodles, Li Yao didn't know what to say for a moment.
Ding Ling Dong laughed out loud, still holding a noodle in her mouth. She waved her hand and said:
"You've been my human punching bag for such a long time. Why can't I do you a little favor? Besides, 'Vulture Li Yao' is in the limelight right now. You're one of the most famous freshmen of the Grand Desolate War Institution. For a talent like you, the institution will give you special care and accelerate your growth. It's perfectly normal! If I weren't so busy, I would've gone to the northern part of the Wasteland with you right now! "
"Sister Ling, thank you!"
Li Yao choked for a long time. He finally managed to squeeze out such a sentence.
He also sat down beside Ding Lingdang, chewing the fragrant braised egg in big mouthfuls.
"Okay."
Ding Ling Dong replied and focused on her work.
While sucking the noodles, Li Yao's eyes accidentally glanced at Ding Ling Dong's side face. He suddenly realized that this human-shaped tyrannosaurus was quite beautiful as long as she didn't open her mouth and focused on her work.
Her tranquil and indifferent temperament was completely different from her energetic manner when she opened her mouth to speak.
It was like a pair of twins who looked alike but had completely opposite personalities. It was too weird.
"What are you looking at?"
Ding Ling Dong glared at him with some dissatisfaction. She felt that Li Yao's eyes were somewhat strange.
"Nothing."
Li Yao's face turned red. His eyes instantly flashed to the hologram. He somewhat panicked and changed the topic. "I'm looking at your work. You've been so busy recently. Have you opened a lot of new courses? Huh? 'Freshmen Interdepartmental Thunderbolt Cup'? What's that? The winner will be rewarded with … 10,000 credits! "
Li Yao suddenly jumped up. Half a bowl of noodles fell on his chest, but he didn't bother to wipe it off. He wished he could poke his head into the hologram.
"Freshmen Interdepartmental Tournament. The winner will be rewarded with 10,000 credits? Great, I want to sign up. I want to sign up now! "
Li Yao was so excited that he danced with joy.
Ding Ling Dong forcibly pulled him back. She was both angry and amused as she said:
"Don't get excited. First, look carefully. This is an interdepartmental tournament. It's a team battle based on the student union. It's not an individual battle. No matter how strong you are, the student union of the Refining Department only has you. How can you participate? "
"Based on the student union? There's no individual battle? "
Li Yao suddenly felt discouraged.
"Yes, according to previous years. This is the freshmen tournament between the two student unions of the Combat Department, the Chaos Edge Hall and the Iron Fist Club. Both sides will select 1,000 of their strongest freshmen to compete. "
"Because I'm a new teacher, I'm mainly responsible for the freshmen's chores. Therefore, I'm quite familiar with the situation. Therefore, I'm one of the staff members of this year's tournament. I've been busy with this matter recently."
The Freshmen Interdepartmental Thunderbolt Cup was a traditional tournament of the Grand Desolate War Institution. It had been held for several decades.
On one hand, its purpose was to display the results of the freshmen after a year of cultivation, making it convenient for the major sects to select talents.
On the other hand, it was also to compete for the next year's resources.
Most of the financial backers of the Grand Desolate War Institution were combat sects. They respected martial arts. Therefore, the large amount of resources they provided would naturally be used by the department with the strongest combat strength.
From the very beginning, the Thunderbolt Cup was sponsored by the Devil Fist Sect, the Hundred Saber Alliance, and more than a dozen other famous combat sects of the Wasteland. It was a simulation of actual combat, and the winner was king!
In short, this tournament was tailor-made for the two student unions of the Combat Department to compete for resources.
In terms of the rules, other departments could also participate. As long as they were strong enough, they could get the sponsorship of many combat sects.
However, in actual combat, which department could compete with the Iron Fist Club or the Chaos Edge Hall?
They would be cleanly crushed in minutes!
Therefore, except for the first decade or so, there were still some departments who participated in the tournament with the mentality of taking advantage of the situation. As a result, they were completely destroyed. In the last 30 years, there were very few departments who signed up for the Thunderbolt Cup.
Over time, the Thunderbolt Cup became a civil war between the two student unions of the Combat Department.
Li Yao buried himself in magical equipment all day long. He simply did not have the slightest bit of free time. Therefore, it was normal that he did not know much about the details of the Thunderbolt Cup.
Seeing this, Li Yao fell into contemplation.
Slowly tapping his head, he thoughtfully asked:
"According to the rules, the student unions of all departments can sign up for the Thunderbolt Cup. The maximum number of participants is 1,000, and there is no lower limit."
"As long as you win, you will get 10,000 credits, which will be divided equally among the participants."
"In other words, as the president of the student union of the Refining Department, I am fully qualified to sign up for the tournament. And as long as I win, because I am the only participant of the Refining Department, I can enjoy 10,000 credits alone?"
"Theoretically, yes!"
Ding Ling Dong snappily said, "The problem is, the Iron Fist Club has 1,000 participants, and the Chaos Edge Hall has another 1,000 participants. Clever little brother, please tell me, how are you going to defeat 2,000 opponents in the tournament?"
