Chapter 33: Rich Rewards

New Era Year 123, October 1st.

Quicksand High School.

A large number of students gathered at the field, forming a square.

The class monitor, Chu Lingjun, was arranging the students into two columns, one for each gender.

Chen Zhiqi, who was wearing a black leather combat uniform, looked beautiful and valiant. She carried a long sword on her back and walked to the front of the line. She smiled at Chu Lingjun and said, "Is it okay for me to go first?"

"Wang Xia, if you have no problem with it, then I have no problem with it." Chu Lingjun said.

Wang Xia was the student who had been pushed to second by Chen Zhiqi.

At this moment, Ding Peng walked up from behind the group and said to Chu Lingjun, "All forty-nine people are here!"

"Huh? Forty-nine?" Chu Lingjun was about to agree, but he did a double-take. Wasn't there a total of 50 people in the class?

"Zhang Liang dropped out of school." Ding Peng whispered into Chu Lingjun's ear.

Chu Lingjun was taken aback. He did not expect this. He had been busy cultivating recently and had handed some matters over to Ding Peng.

Ding Peng was the class monitor's assistant.

Zhang Liang must have had a weak mentality. Lingjun had only bullied him once, but he was so afraid that he dropped out of school?!

How fragile!

In the past, Zhang Liang had not only bullied him, but he also bullied other students as well.

"When did this happen?"

"The week before last!" A mischievous smile appeared on Ding Peng's face as he looked at Chu Lingjun with a meaningful expression.

Chu Lingjun rolled his eyes at him.

Ding Peng chuckled and winked.

Chu Lingjun was speechless.

After a brief speech, the students headed towards the Iron Peak Mountain.

"Third years, lead the march! First and second years follow well!"

More than 1000 students marched forward in unison. The formation looked like a long black dragon, and its aura was quite spectacular.

Chu Lingjun raised his eyebrows and looked at his seniors. tHey were burning with passion and adrenaline.

The third years were at the middle or late Stage in terms of cultivation. Most of them were in Rank Two.

The difference in power was uncanny!

A Rank One martial artist's vitality was between 1 to 100 points. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝙢

On the other hand, the vitality of a Rank Two martial artist was between 100 to 1,000 points!

It would take two to three years to reach 1,000 points!

Cultivation was like going against the current. The higher one's cultivation was, the harder it was to advance.

In addition, there was a barrier in every advancement of the realm. The time and energy it takes to break through would be heavier each time.

The black dragon meandered forward. When it jogged out of the city, the gap between the three grades gradually became apparent.

The third year students took the lead. They moved as quickly as galloping horses. They moved like a dragon in the wilderness and rushed toward the Iron Peak Mountain .

A martial artist whose cultivation had reached Middle Stage Rank Two could reach a speed of nearly 30 to 40 kilometers per hour with the circulation of true qi.

This speed was almost the same as the speed of some small cars. They didn't even break a sweat.

On the other hand, the second years were slower, traveling at about 10 to 20 kilometers per hour.

The first year students were lagging behind. It had only been a month since school started, and many students had just learned how to convert energy into vitality. Their physical fitness was only slightly higher than ordinary people.

Chu Lingjun followed the team and advanced slowly. He was just a weak lightning esper after all.

"Hey, which place do you want to get in this monthly test?"

Chen Zhiqi jogged over. The breeze blew her long hair, and the flowery shampoo fragrance entered Chu Lingjun's nose.

Chu Lingjun took a deep breath. It smelled quite good.

"I don't know. We'll just have to wait and see." Chu Lingjun said casually.

"Your answer is obviously insincere." Chen Zhiqi rolled her eyes at him.

"Haha, I'll work hard to get into the top ten, happy?" Chu Lingjun smiled.

"Then I'll work hard to get into the top ten as well. I'll definitely catch up to you!"

Chen Zhiqi's eyes flashed, and her fighting spirit surged. Her right hand could not help but hold the hilt of her sword, as if she could not wait to kill whoever that stands in her way.

"Alright, do your best." Chu Lingjun smiled.

"I'll be more than happy if I can get into the top fifty." Ding Peng interrupted their conversation.

The sun gradually set in the West and hung above everyone's heads.

After nearly three hours of marching, they finally reached their destination.

They scattered at the foot of the mountain, drinking, eating, and resting.

Chu Lingjun sat under a big tree and sized up the lone mountain in front of him.

This place was even deeper than the place where he went last time. Not a single person could be seen lurking around this area.

The mountain was lush with greenery and dense vegetation. All kinds of trees that were dozens of meters tall could be seen everywhere.

There were majestic roars that came from the mountain from time to time, causing many students to turn pale.

A large number of drones flocked around like birds, buzzing in the air and monitoring the surroundings.

While the students were resting, Shen Yanhu and the other teachers stood in front of them and explained the rules of the monthly test.

"Everyone, listen up. The content of this monthly test is very simple. It requires everyone to survive independently on this mountain behind you for three days!"

When Shen Yanhu said this, some of the weaker students in the class immediately exploded!

"Surviving independently for three whole days?! Isn't that too difficult?"

"I can tell at a glance that there are many mutated beasts on this mountain. How can we survive for three days? We will all be eaten alive!"

Yanhu stretched out his hands and shut it. The dignity of being a terrifying teacher for the past month immediately made the students quiet down.

"Everyone, there's no need to be so self-deprecating, and there's no need to be so afraid.

"There are indeed many mutated beasts living on this mountain in front of us, but the school had already taken this into account when they were cleaning up the examination area.

"That is, the further you go into the mountains, the stronger the mutated beasts will become.

"That's why everyone can act according to their abilities and choose a place to live according to their strength. If you think you're not strong enough, then stay at the edge of the mountain. The exotic beasts there are all Early Stage Level One, so it won't be difficult to deal with them."

When Shen Yanhu said that, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

In this case, those that wish not to challenge the difficulty can just stay closer to the entrance.

"Of course, in order to encourage everyone to challenge themselves and defeat the mutated beasts, we have decided to give rewards based on a metric system this time."
