Chapter 19 - Imperial Capital

Lin Xuan was extremely tired. First, he crazily ran to deplete his stamina. Then, he worked on his arm strength, lower body stability, and other exercises that were all involved. When his stamina training was completed, he began to practice his skills.

When it came to skill practice, the guardians had the easiest task. It was to take a beating!

He used the small round shield placed on his arm to continuously block some of the attacks that came his way. The combater's goal was to hit the guardian's body, and the guardian's goal was to block every attack.

The guardians' were obviously at a disadvantage having to passively take hits. No matter how perfect their defense was, there would always be loopholes. Therefore, the longer it went on, the more guardians fell. In the end, only Lin Xuan was left to face the attacks of ten or so combaters alone.

After three rounds of attacks, Lin Xuan finally fell. It was not because he was hit, but because he was too tired and did not have any strength left in him to recover.

"Lin Xiaoran, a little help here?"

That's right. The treatment of minor injuries or helping the guardian recover strength was the role of a supporter.

A warm current surged into Lin Xuan's body. This was the Sun Treatment talent. The main recovery state would be doubled under the scorching sun.

"How was it? Are you satisfied with today's training?"

Lin Xiaoran smiled slyly as he walked over and helped Lin Xuan to the side to rest.

"Please stop talking. Li Zifei was crazy. She shot arrows at me with all her might, and they were all vital parts. I was freaking out."

Lin Xiaoran patted Lin Xuan's shoulder and walked away with a strange smile.

After a while, he recovered some of his strength and took out a bottle of body tempering medicine. He drank tons of it. When his strength was exhausted, drinking it would have the best effect. Not only could he recover some of his strength… he could also bring out the maximum effect of the body tempering medicine. His body was heating up and a large amount of sweat was coming out. 

After completing his physical fitness and skill training, the next step was the dungeon run.

The first day of high school officially began, and it was the second time for the students to enter the dungeon. Lin Xuan chose to do it alone.

He went to a low level yellow rank dungeon — Grey Beetle.

After switching to an attack-type talent, Lin Xuan went to the dungeon alone. In this dungeon space, he killed all the beetles that could be killed.

As expected, the Ethereal Body's specialty did not change at all. However, the new specialty was being plundered and activated. 

[Basic Specialty: Gray Body]

[Activation Progress: 975/10,000]

Gray Armor was a specialty that mainly increases Lin Xuan's defensive strength. Whether it was physical or magic, although Lin Xuan had No Damage, it could still be helpful in times of need.

The second template, Dragon Sparrow's Wound's second skill, Killing, had a progress that reached 3,204 out of 10,000, which was almost one-third to its way of completion!

The final evaluation was still an A, but he had yet to break through an A+.

According to Lin Xuan's experience in these few dungeons, breaking through to an A+ final evaluation was not easy, but it was not difficult either. First of all, this dungeon had to have an A+ evaluation.

Not all dungeons had an A+ evaluation, which meant that not all dungeons had a hidden boss. Without a hidden bossBOSS, the final evaluation score would be capped at an A!

Unless it was a dungeon exploration. Dungeon exploration was a special case. It would have a unique mission achievement that could increase the evaluation score from an A to A+!

However, it was still important to note that clearing dungeons alone was very dangerous.

Therefore, this time, Lin Xuan naturally obtained a low level yellow rank dungeon A grade clearance treasure chest. Well, Lin Xuan had already accumulated three of these clearance treasure chests. He decided that he would use them tonight.

After clearing the level, he informed his teacher and prepared to practice on his own. He went to the training venue for ability users.

First, he had his lunch. He used the rabbit head exclusive VIP card and ordered three braised rabbit heads, one spicy rabbit diced, one roasted whole rabbit, and one braised rabbit leg. The full price was 200,000 dollars. After a discount, it was 160,000! What a steal!

Lin Xuan subconsciously glanced at his account balance. 40 million dollars. He was spending just as quickly as he was earning!

The spirit food set was a must after consuming body tempering medicine. In order to have enough energy to strengthen his body, after eating it, waves of energy surged into his body. With that, he was ready to take over the world!

"Hello, sir. How may I help you today?"

"I'd like to do a mission. I want low level yellow rank monsters that have high attack power and are high in numbers."

"There is a gathering honey mission available. Would you like to know more?"

Lin Xuan took a look at the introduction of this dungeon. He would have to fight in a low level yellow rank dungeon to kill killing bees and get their killer. They were basically low level yellow rank wild monsters. The killer honey they produced had many uses, it was one of the main ingredients for body tempering medicine.

However, due to the severity of the dungeon, the price of each produce was much higher. Moreover, the more on had, the more they could earn!

"Okay, this is it!"

When he came to the third floor, he first put on his Light Earth Armor, took his Purple Wood Shield and wore a hood. He hoped that he could block the Killer Bees attacks with the hood.

[You have entered the low level yellow rank dungeon — Killer Honey Forest.]

This was a primitive forest. The lush trees were vibrant. Although the trees were tall, the leaves could not block out all the sunlight. A lot of sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves and onto the ground, providing a certain type of luminescence for him.

The ground was full of flowers and grass. The colorful flowers competed with each other and the rich fragrance of the flowers floated in the air, mesmerizing people.

The corners of Lin Xuan's eyes twitched when he looked at the fist-sized Killer Bees in front of him.

Glancing at the beehive not too far away, Lin Xuan first had to plan each and every step. It was boorish to make a move directly. He first marked the beehive further away. There were a few beehives that were placed in this dungeon. He planned out a route and used the shortest distance and the fastest speed to gather all the Killer Bees together and then kill them in one go!

..

Imperial City, Lin family.

"Zhenyue, Zhenxing, how do you feel about your partner today?"

Principle Lin asked his two granddaughters who had just exited the special teleportation array in his office.

"His defensive rhythm is not suitable for me. He has a strong desire to attack. Moreover, he said that he wants to develop into a shield warrior who can attack and defend at the same time."

Lin Zhenyue said what she wanted to say. She did not want to hide this from her grandfather. Moreover, she did not like the young man who was partnering with them today. He wanted them to change their attack styles and ordered them around every chance he had!

"Alright, then you guys should go to Dongning School in a few days. There's an interesting kid there that might be more well suited for you both."
