As time passed, Young Master Yang realized that he was wrong because Linlong's icy aura was getting stronger and stronger. It was not something that he could withstand at all.
In a short period of time, his lips had already turned purple from the cold and his entire body was trembling.
Even so, he was unwilling to give up and asked, "Kid, how are you so strong … Did you intentionally conceal your strength before entering the academy?"
"I don't need to tell you that." Linlong smiled indifferently.
In any case, the academy did not stipulate that he could not conceal his strength.
Young Master Yang continued to ask, "Or in a short period of time, you …"
However, he did not continue to ask because in the next moment, he was already frozen to the point that he could not speak. Then, he directly fell to the ground.
Linlong, who had stopped here, immediately put away the icy talisman.
"You lost." He looked at Young Master Yang, who had just caught his breath.
Then, he directly walked over to the crystal, picked it up, and kept it in his runic spatial ring, China.
Seeing this scene, Young Master Yang's heart was bleeding. One must know that in a short period of time, he had already lost three crystals in a row.
Although he was the young master of the Yang family in Jiashang City, in this academy, he had spent god knows how long to earn these three crystals.
Now that he had lost to Linlong, his heart was naturally bleeding.
For a moment, he actually regretted making such a bet with Linlong. However, there was no medicine for regret in this world.
After saying that, Linlong ignored Young Master Yang and lifted his feet to walk off the stage.
However, he did not expect Young Master Yang's voice to come from behind him. "Wait!"
"Why? Does Young Master Yang want to make another bet?" Linlong turned his head and smiled indifferently at Young Master Yang.
Bet your sister! Young Master Yang cursed in his heart.
He had already made up his mind that he would never bet with Linlong again.
Seeing that Young Master Yang did not speak, Linlong said, "If you don't want to bet, then I have no interest in standing here anymore."
At this moment, Young Master Yang said coldly, "I just want to tell you that I will not let you off. You better behave yourself!"
"Is that so? Then I'll be waiting." Lin Long said indifferently. After saying that, he paid no further attention to his opponent and directly leaped off the stage.
It seemed that Linlong was in trouble. Although he had won so many Crystal Stones this time, Young Master Yang would definitely not let him off. With Young Master Yang's influence, not only would Linlong spit it all out, but he would also lose all the Crystal Stones he had on him! This thought flashed across the hearts of most of the people below the stage when they heard the words of the two of them.
At this moment, many people started to worry for Lin Long. After all, they had obtained those crystals for free because of Lin Long.
Looking at Linlong, someone next to the masked man below the stage said, "Elder Wang, could this kid still be hiding his strength?"
The person who spoke was wearing a wolf mask. If Linlong were here, he would definitely recognize him as the person who had chased him everywhere in the Catacombs.
Naturally, this person was Hall Master Xing.
Elder Wang took over the conversation. "Elder Xing, you're worrying too much. That kid might be powerful, but given his age, he would only be able to master grade 3 frost talismans at most. There's no way he can master grade 4 frost talismans. Do you think that it's that easy to master grade 4 frost talismans?"
"Indeed, I'm being too worried." Hall Master Xing nodded.
"However, we still can't be too careless. How about this, when that kid leaves the academy, the two of us will chase after him together. I believe that we'll definitely be able to capture him then!" Elder Wang said.
"Alright." Hall Master Xing nodded in agreement. After a slight pause, he said, "However, I wonder when that kid will leave the academy for the Catacombs."
They had been keeping an eye on Linlong for the past few days, but who would have thought that Linlong had no intention of leaving the academy at all?
"Just keep an eye on him. He can't possibly not leave the academy for several months," Elder Wang said.
Thinking about it, he had already made up his mind to keep an eye on Linlong for a long time.
"Alright." Hall Master Xing nodded once more.
Naturally, Linlong was unaware of this matter. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Zhang Yue and Shen Jun, he made his way to the library.
Unknowingly, a few days had passed. On the morning of the fourth day, a satisfied smile crept onto Linlong's face.
Over the past few days, he had finally made sense of everything that he had been unable to comprehend previously.
It was all thanks to the many books in the library that he had stumbled upon that there were many insights in them. These insights were the solutions that his predecessors had come up with to solve their problems.
It was through these insights that Linlong was able to resolve the problems that he had stumbled upon.
Of course, this was something that only Linlong was capable of. Had it been anyone else without a teacher to guide them, no matter how many insights they had, it was unlikely that they would be able to comprehend everything on their own.
Linlong didn't start experimenting in the library right away. The chilling aura induced by a grade-4 Glacial Talisman was far stronger than that induced by a grade-3 Glacial Talisman. If he were to activate it, the person outside would surely be alerted. Since Linlong didn't want to expose his strength yet, there was no reason for him to test it out here.
Without any hesitation, he walked out of the library.
As soon as he walked out of the library, he headed straight for his residence.
Before he reached his residence, he noticed a woman loitering around his house. From the looks of it, it was obvious that she didn't want to attract attention.
'Who sent this person to spy on me?' Linlong furrowed his brows.
However, the other party's stalking skills were clearly too poor.
After thinking about it, Linlong directly walked up to the other party.
Upon seeing him, the other party jumped in fright and hurriedly said, "Young Master Lin, you're back!"
"Who are you? Why are you loitering around my house?" Linlong asked coldly.
"I'm Miss Zhou Yingxue's friend. The reason why I'm here is to see when you'll be back," the other party hurriedly replied.
"Huh? Miss Zhou? Why is she looking for me? "Linlong was puzzled.
"It's because of her that Young Master Yang caused trouble for you previously, so she wants to apologize to you. However, she felt that it would be too conspicuous for her to come over, so she asked me to wait here," the other party explained.
Hearing this, Linlong felt relieved. He also understood why the other party's stalking skills were so poor.
He immediately said, "Go back and tell Miss Zhou that there's no need to apologize or anything. After all, I really treat her as a friend."
After saying a few more words and sending the woman away, Linlong headed toward the Catacombs.
He originally wanted to experiment at his residence, but he gave up on the idea in the end.
This was because experimenting at his residence would be equally obvious. It would be easy for others to find out that he already had such strength.
Therefore, he could only go to the Catacombs to experiment. Although the Black Kill Organization or even Young Master Yang might send people to follow him into the Catacombs, he couldn't care less.
After all, if he mastered the Level 4 Ice Talisman, he wouldn't have to be afraid of these people.
Before he reached the entrance of the Catacombs, he had already noticed that someone was following him. When he arrived at the entrance of the Catacombs, he even noticed that there were a few people who could activate the Level 4 Ice Talisman. The person wearing the wolf mask was among them.
This was not a small force. Linlong could not help but frown.
He could see that it was not just the Black Kill Organization that had mobilized. Young Master Yang's people had also been mobilized.
Although the enemy was strong, after thinking about it, Linlong still walked toward the entrance.
On the other side, Hall Master Xing wearing the wolf mask said to Elder Wang, "It seems that Yang Yanliang's people have also been mobilized!"
"That's right. It's Yang Yanliang's people." Elder Wang nodded. Then, he narrowed his eyes and said, "I just hope that they won't affect us."
As they spoke, the two of them were already walking toward the entrance.
When Linlong's figure disappeared at the entrance, they also followed him in.
The people that Yang Yanliang had recruited also followed them in.
After Elder Wang and the others entered, they were dumbfounded. This was because Linlong, who had entered first, had already greeted them.
Looking at these people, Linlong smiled faintly and said, "Hello, everyone. Sorry to trouble you."
Hmm, are these two also here to deal with this kid? Who are they? The people on Yang Yanliang's side were stunned. They did not expect that there would be other people here to deal with Linlong.
Elder Wang and Hall Master Xing did not say anything. They were waiting for Linlong to leave before following him.
Although this place was already in the Catacombs, it was still connected to the entrance and the runic array of the academy. If they were to make a move, the runic array would detect them. Therefore, they did not make a move here.
This area was very small. It was only a radius of two feet.
It was also at this time that another person came in from the entrance. This person looked very familiar to Linlong. It was Yang Yanliang.
Yang Yanliang must have rushed here as soon as he received the news that Linlong had entered the Catacombs.
As soon as he came out, Yang Yanliang's gaze was focused on Linlong.
Looking at the situation, how could he not know that his group's actions had been detected by Linlong?
He immediately sneered. "Kid, don't tell me that you don't dare to enter the Catacombs?"
"There are so many of you. If I go in like this, wouldn't I be courting death?" Linlong smiled calmly.
"Very well. Then if you have the guts, never enter the Catacombs again!" Yang Yanliang said through gritted teeth.
"Haha, that depends on the situation." Linlong chuckled and walked back.
As soon as Linlong left, Yang Yanliang complained, "What happened to you guys? How did he notice you?"
"Young Master Yang, we were very careful. Who would have thought that we would still be detected by that kid?" One of the people he called over could not help but smile bitterly.
With that said, the few of them could only helplessly walk out. Elder Wang and Hall Master Xing did the same.
As soon as they walked out, someone outside hurried over and said to Yang Yanliang, "Young Master Yang, that kid just went in again!"
"Again? When? "Yang Yanliang was stunned.
"It was around this time when you guys came out. As soon as he saw you guys come out, that kid immediately went in!" the person said.
Hearing that, Yang Yanliang quickly reacted and said, "Chase after him!"
As he said that, he directly rushed in. The others also followed closely behind him.
As for Elder Wang and Hall Master Xing, they had already entered the Catacombs a little earlier than you guys.
"That lad sure is unpredictable," Hall Master Xing remarked as he walked into the room.
He thought that Linlong would be too afraid to enter the Catacombs after noticing them. Who would have thought that Linlong would dare to enter right under their noses?
Even though they had followed him in almost immediately, by the time they entered, Linlong was already quite a distance away from them.
The two of them quickly chased after him.
Naturally, Yang Yanliang and the others were right behind them. After noticing what was going on, Yang Yanliang and the others also followed closely behind them.
However, due to the large number of trees in the vicinity, they were unable to catch up to Linlong even after chasing for a while.
At this time, Elder Wang finally understood how formidable Linlong's movement technique was.
Even though there were many trees here, he knew that if not for Linlong's movement technique, there was no way he could escape from their sight.
Since they were unable to catch up to Linlong, and the area inside was too large, the possibility of finding Linlong was very low. Thus, the two of them could only leave the Catacombs.
"Brat, count yourself lucky this time. You won't be so lucky next time!" Yang Yanliang said coldly.
"Young Master Yang, should we search for him inside or return first?" At this time, the person he called over asked.
"That kid is already able to activate the Grade 3 Ice Talisman. He should have returned to the south. Let's go there to find him!" Yang Yanliang said directly.
He was unwilling to lose Linlong just like that, so he did not choose to leave like Elder Wang and Hall Master Xing. Instead, he continued to search inside.
Little did he know that Linlong was still in the central region. After confirming that the people behind him did not chase after him, Linlong took out the Grade 4 Ice Talisman and began experimenting.
After silently chanting a runic term, the Grade 4 Ice Talisman in his hand began to burn, and the surrounding temperature immediately plummeted.
As soon as the Ice Talisman was activated, a Vicious Beast that was still quite a distance away froze and fell to the ground.
Even though this Vicious Beast was only a Grade 1 Vicious Beast, due to the distance, this meant that Linlong could already activate the Grade 4 Ice Talisman.
He actually succeeded on his first try! This kind of success surprised Linlong a little.
However, it was obvious that he was still not proficient enough. If he were to face an enemy, anyone who accidentally activated the Grade 3 Ice Talisman would be able to defeat him.
Therefore, he continued to deal with the nearby Vicious Beasts, using the weaker ones here to increase his proficiency in the Grade 4 Ice Talisman.
After spending a lot of time and confirming that he was completely proficient in activating the Grade 4 Ice Talisman, Linlong returned to the entrance and walked out.
At this time, only half a day had passed.
If Elder Wang and the others knew that he had activated the Grade 4 Ice Talisman in such a short time, their eyeballs would probably fall out of their sockets.
When Linlong came out, he did not see the person wearing the wolf mask.
The two people from the Black Kill Organization probably knew that he would not come out for a while, so they left first. Linlong thought to himself.
As he thought so, he discovered that someone was staring at him.
It should be Yang Yanliang's men. Linlong guessed.
The reason why he made such a guess was because when he came in, he discovered that this person was together with Yang Yanliang's men.
In that case, he would go over and ask him to find out where Yang Yanliang and the others were. With this thought in mind, Linlong immediately walked over.
What Linlong needed to do now was to deal with Yang Yanliang and the others. Previously, he was chased by these people and had to flee in panic. Now that his strength had increased, he naturally wanted to fight back.
Of course, the most important thing was to eliminate these threats so that they would not scheme against him all day long.
