Hearing the praises of the villagers, Lin Yi finally understood the situation.
It turned out that they were happy because the three monsters at the back mountain had been killed.
Rael also followed over and glanced at Lin Yi unhappily.
He snorted and said, "I really don't know how you did it."
Then, he turned around and left.
"D*mn it, the monsters at the back mountain should have been left for me. Lin Yi actually beat me to it."
Rael walked away in a fit of pique. The other villagers and children were very happy and flattering Lin Yi.
Aunt Sally, who had come there in the morning, pulled Lin Yi back.
"Little Lin Yi, come and eat together. You're the hero of our village. We have to reward you well this time. The food is already ready and everyone is waiting for you."
Pushing open the wooden door and entering the house, Lin Yi saw a large table of dishes.
A group of villagers sat around the dining table, waiting for Lin Yi to arrive.
All these years, this was the first time there were so many people in this wooden house.
And this was the first time they had such a sumptuous meal.
Lin Yi fell silent. He walked to the table and sat down. The atmosphere in the room was as lively as a festival.
The dishes on the table were very sumptuous, and there was even wine.
The villagers praised Lin Yi as they ate.
Aunt Sally kept putting food into Lin Yi's bowl.
Jeff, the old village chief, was also present. He patted Lin Yi's shoulder in relief.
"Lin Yi, you've grown up."
Lin Yi, who had been tired for a day, was already famished.
So he was very satisfied with this meal.
And at the same time, it was the first time he felt like he was at home.
All the villagers in the village were very simple and honest.
The monsters in the back mountain were killed by Lin Yi. It could be said that he had eliminated the scourge of the entire village.
That was why everyone was so happy.
The meal lasted until dark before the villagers slowly dispersed.
After everyone left, Lin Yi sat on the bed in satisfaction.
"It seems that being a hero doesn't feel bad."
Lin Yi felt a feeling that he had never felt before.
However, he still had work to do after the meal.
It was time to enchant the five pieces of novice equipment he had bought.
Lin Yi opened the Enchantment Platform again and began to work.
He used up all five Level 1 Monster Crystals.
The light of the enchantment kept flashing.
And soon, all the equipment was enchanted!
Lin Yi finally yawned. He was already very tired from what he had done today.
"It's finally done."
He blew out the oil lamp.
Lying on the bed, Lin Yi quickly fell asleep.
...
The next morning, the sky was covered in a thin mist.
The weather today was not very good. It was a little gloomy and dark clouds covered the sky. It seemed like it was going to rain soon.
However, this couldn't stop the children's excitement.
At daybreak, the youths who had attended the Awakening Ceremony yesterday gathered in the open space in front of the village.
They were waiting for the arrival of the old village chief, Jeff, and the instructor who would lead them into Paro Forest.
It was a rare opportunity to gain experience!
Therefore, everyone was very excited!
Rael had also arrived early. He had made ample preparations this time.
Novice sword, novice armor, novice shield, everything was ready.
Rael was fully armed.
After all, Paro Forest was a large forest that was known as the Land of Death!
No one could tell what was inside.
He couldn't be careless!
The other children were envious of Rael. They also wanted to have such complete equipment.
However, their families were not as well-off as Rael's.
So most of them only brought one piece of attack equipment, such as the novice sword.
If they were Awakened Mages, they would bring a novice wand.
And if they were archers, they would bring a novice bow.
Including Rael, there were five of them.
The others had awakened their lifestyle or support classes and did not need to participate in the experiential learning, so they did not come today.
Xiqin and Lin Yi were the last to arrive.
The moment Lin Yi appeared, he immediately became the center of attention.
"Lin Yi is here. I heard that he killed the monsters at the back mountain of the village yesterday."
"Amazing. He's really the hero of our village."
Listening to the discussions in his ears, Rael felt a little annoyed. Rael sized up Lin Yi's clothes and realized that he was only wearing his usual cotton clothes.
Rael immediately revealed a surprised and mocking expression.
He said, "Heavens. Lin Yi, you actually came to participate in the experiential learning without any defensive equipment."
"You really are too arrogant. Aren't you afraid of dying in the forest and not being able to return?"
Hearing Rael's words, Lin Yi did not show any expression.
He didn't take the other party seriously at all.
He said, "You don't have to worry. With my strength, I don't need any defensive equipment."
These words did not have any deterrent power to Rael.
However, he still shut his mouth. He wanted to conserve his strength and energy in order to perform best in the upcoming battle.
Xiqin walked to Lin Yi's side and asked softly, "I heard that you fought yesterday. Are you injured?"
Lin Yi shook his head.
Then Xiqin finally relaxed.
The sound of a carriage could be heard not far away.
A carriage pulled by two horses drew closer and stopped in front of the children. Two people got out of the carriage.
One was the old village chief, Jeff.
And the other person was their instructor.
Jeff cleared his throat and said seriously, "This is your instructor for this trip. His name is Dorman, a Level 3 Swordsman! He used to be a retired soldier of the Imperial City's border army!"
The children all looked at Dorman with respect.
At the same time, they began to size him up.
Dorman was wearing a white robe. He was 1.8 meters tall and very handsome.
He carried two long swords on his back, and there was a very eye-catching badge on his chest with a picture of a sword on it.
At the same time, the white robe on his body was printed with the symbol of the Werribia Empire's Border Legion-an eagle. This proved that he was indeed a soldier.
"I will be your instructor for this trip. Before we set off, I have a few things to tell you."
"First of all, you must strictly obey my orders and not run around. Paro Forest is extremely dangerous. Stay under my nose If you don't want to die."
"Secondly, the training will last for a day. You have to rely on your own abilities to kill the monsters. After the day is over, we will come back on time."
"Thirdly, I will give a personal reward to the child who performs the best in this experiential learning!"
"And at the same time, he will also receive the recommendation to enter St. Caesar Academy!"
As Dorman finished saying this, all the children were shocked.
St. Caesar Academy's recommendation!
It was the most outstanding university in the entire Werribia Empire!
As for the children of the farm, they didn't even dare to think about a school of that level.
As long as they received the recommendation, they would be qualified to take the entrance exam.
If one successfully enrolled, then he would be halfway to the peak of his life. From then on, he would slowly rise to the top!
