Zhang Lin, who had originally thought that he would breeze through the dungeon, did not expect that this test would be a cat monster dungeon. Even he himself got scratched on his robe due to his careless positioning, and his embarrassed appearance was far from what he had imagined as an elemental mage.
"Be careful, there is only one priest in our team, so save your mana," the boy behind Zhang Lin patted him on the shoulder. It was the team captain, Ji Men, who had invited Zhang Lin to join.
"Okay, Captain."
Before Ji Men invited Zhang Lin and the others to join, he was interested in having a clergyman and an elemental mage in their team.
Ji Men didn't want to be a villain, and his intention was to let Zhang Lin speak up and kick out the shield battle; after all, they were still classmates. When Zhang Lin joined the team again, Ji Men agreed with them to join, primarily for Zhang Lin's elemental mage, but now there was only one clergyman in the team, and the support pressure would be great. If Zhang Lin's skills were not accurate, it would be difficult for them to achieve an A-level evaluation. After all, with more team members, the difficulty would increase accordingly.
The captain casually released a fireball as a demonstration, accurately hitting the running cat demon. "It's better to calculate the trajectory of the cat demon's actions and then attack," he advised.
Ji Men maintained a calm face and a smile, but internally, he cursed: "You can't even throw fireballs straight, why don't you change your job to become a caller? I must have been blind when I invited you to join the team."
"Okay, thank you, Captain," Zhang Lin finally understood that even if the attributes were the same, the abilities after changing jobs were very different. Not only were the awakened talents different, but also the fighting skills were different.
"Well, just practice more."
Most of the teams were caught off guard by the cat demon dungeon. There were two magicians in Ji Men's team, but their advancement speed was still average. They had almost finished clearing the monsters on the first floor, while most of the other teams had only cleared half of them. Everyone was now scolding the examiner for choosing the cat monster dungeon test.
As for Han Yu, Jiang Ziqi had already taken her to clean up the cat monsters on the second floor. Except for the addition of a cursed cat monster, there was nothing special about it.
———
At this time, outside the arena, a homeroom teacher was watching the misery of the students in the arena. "It seems that this cat monster has indeed caused a lot of trouble. Before this group of boys were rushing to farm monsters and equipment independently. Now they know how to farm monsters by themselves. It's dangerous."
"On the first floor, many skills are still uncertain. Once you get familiar with the cat monster's attack rhythm, it should be almost the same," another head teacher replied.
Jiang Wen scanned the screen. "Why didn't you see that brat Han Yu?"
"Ah, principal, if you want to see her, just call her out." The teacher in charge of connecting the video immediately started to operate. Afraid that Jiang Wen would go crazy seeing his daughter and other boys, they hid Han Yu's image.
"Hmph, I still want to see Han Yu tackling the cat monster dungeon alone. I want to see how she was scratched half to death by the cat monster."
Jiang Wen didn't want to see Han Yu at first, but now that he saw other students' plight, he couldn't wait to see Han Yu's situation.
Han Yu's picture appeared in the middle, and the two were about to open the door to the next floor.
"Is this already cleaned up?" a homeroom teacher asked in surprise. Donghua had just seen that no team had cleaned up the first layer of the copy yet.
"No, take a look at what is written on the gate."
"Three! The third floor, they have already cleaned up the monsters on the second floor! They are about to open the door to the third floor!"
Jiang Wen, who originally wanted to see Han Yu's miserable situation, was also stunned. What's the situation? They completed two floors so quickly; this is a direct push, right?
Everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Wen, and he regained his senses with a serious face. "What are you looking at me for!"
"Principal, did you give Ziqi the purple weapon or consumption scroll that ignores levels? If this is discovered by the organizing committee, our entire school will be punished." Xin Zhengxuan, the head teacher of the first class, looked at Jiang Wen in disbelief.
"I'm confused, principal! What do you mean 'if it's discovered'? It will definitely be discovered. The test process is all recorded on video. It's over, and now there are no year-end rewards left!" Luo Shu, the second-class teacher, spread his hands, wearing a look of sadness, feeling that life has no hope.
Jiang Wen stood up with a flushed face and slapped his palm on the table. "That's slander! You think I am the kind of person your principal is?"
Wu Ao grabbed Jiang Wen's arm. "Calm down, Lao Jiang. These young people are not sensible."
"At this critical moment, you are still reliable, Lao Wu." Jiang Wen saw that the rest of the class teachers also had expressions of disbelief, and he grabbed Wu Ao's hand. Finally, someone believed in him.
"I just said that I don't want to be the principal, and you still make such a mess for me. Why do you say you bother, alas." Wu Ao pulled Jiang Wen back to sit down, gloating.
"Eat my fireball, you!" Jiang Wen directly threw a fireball at Wu Ao's face. He thought Wu Ao believed in him, but instead, he wanted to be the principal.
Wu Ao waved his hand, and a shield appeared in front of him, causing the fireball to disappear invisibly. "What's the hurry? They will enter the third floor soon. Let's see how they pass the level."
"That's right! What are you in a hurry for? I'll be able to prove my innocence soon." As he spoke, Jiang Wen glared at Xin Zhenxuan and Luo Shuxin. "You two are so eager to label me. You want to be the principal too, right?"
The two shrank their heads. "Principal, we are worried about our year-end award!"
Indeed, it was because Han Yu's team cleared the level too fast. While others were still struggling on the first floor, they were already preparing to enter the third floor.
The key was that this team had one clergyman, one summoner, and not even a serious master C. How were they going to proceed? Were the two of them going to hammer people with staffs, or rely on the thin and small archer?
There wasn't even any dust on the two of them, let alone any wounds. They were obviously relaxed and didn't let those cat monsters get close.
On the screen, Han Yu pushed open the door and entered the third floor of the dungeon.
Behind her was a young elf archer with a longbow on his back and a huge black panther.
"This is Han Yu's summoned beast? he's lucky to have summoned a humanoid creature," Xin Zhenxuan said.
"What's the use of a human form? It looks like a child, and is not as tall as a longbow. I think it's a bit difficult to draw a bow. Those cat demons were shot to death by this little girl, right?" Jiang Wen pursed his lips and agreed with the head teacher in his heart, but if it wasn't for Han Yu's meritorious service in summoning the beasts, then their speed of clearance would be even more unexplainable.
Jiang Wen also began to mutter in his heart. He did give Jiang Ziqi several purple outfits that ignored the level and a purification scroll. But they were meant to save lives, and he had already told her not to use them in the test; they were only to be used if they really couldn't beat the challenges.
"My precious daughter, you can't give up your father for your little lover!" Jiang Wen's face was full of bitterness, and he was even more unsure whether Jiang Ziqi had used illegal equipment.
"Old Jiang? Did you really equip Ziqi?" Wu Ao looked at Jiang Wen's worried expression and asked in a low voice.
"Nonsense, you didn't prepare a few life-saving items for your daughter, but I already told her not to use them in the test!"
