Chapter 20

“Your IQ is much higher than the monsters in the novice dungeon, but unfortunately, you’re just a beast.”

The Skeleton Warrior exerted a little strength and instantly rushed under the Bizarre Wolf. The saber was also aimed at its abdomen and instantly slashed across!

…

Swoosh!

With the sound of flesh being torn apart, the Bizarre Wolf in the air fell heavily to the ground. Its abdomen was completely cut open.

[Health -1300]

Then, it struggled to get up and turned around to escape without hesitation. However, in the next moment, its head and body were separated, and the last 300 health points were instantly emptied!

[Ding! Level 10 Bizarre Wolf killed. Experience +300]

[Obtained Wolf Fang x1]

[Obtained Wolf Skin x1]

Two items appeared in Zhang Xuan’s personal backpack.

After a class change, everyone would have an exclusive backpack that could be used to store all kinds of items, including food and water. Moreover, the items dropped would automatically be picked up when they were close.

As the inventory capacity increased, alchemists could also increase the inventory capacity. However, each upgrade generally cost hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and they were multiplied.

Originally, Zhang Xuan had tried to put the Skeleton Warrior in his backpack, but unfortunately, he couldn’t put the summoned creature inside.

Otherwise, if he hoarded a thousand of them at once, wouldn’t he be carrying an army of skeletons with him in the future?

This confrontation with the monster allowed Zhang Xuan to roughly understand the strength of the Level 10 monster.

The previous slash that dealt 1,300 damage was completely successful because this slash hit the Bizarre Wolf’s weakness, which was its abdomen.

Even if he didn’t attack the weak points, under normal circumstances, he could kill a Level 10 monster with two slashes.

All the Skeleton Warriors followed Zhang Xuan’s will and flew away like wild horses.

[Level 10 Bizarre Wolf killed, Experience +300]

[Obtained Wolf Fang x2]

[Obtained Wolf Skin x1]

[Killed Level 10 Arrow Porcupine, Experience +300]

[Obtained Arrow Cluster x1]

Countless notifications of killing and obtaining items came one after another. To Zhang Xuan, it sounded like a connected soundtrack.

Before Zhang Xuan could check what he had obtained, a new notification covered it.

His EXP also began to increase at a rapid rate. In less than ten minutes, a white light flashed on his body.

[Prompt: Your level has increased to Level 7!]

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed. He had really made the right decision to come here!

If he was in the novice dungeon, he wouldn’t be able to level up so quickly even if he died of exhaustion. At this rate, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to reach the second transition before the school entrance examination.

After raising the skill levels of the two professions, Zhang Xuan activated the Summon Death Contract without even looking.

Three black vortexes suddenly appeared, and green fluorescence instantly began to spread from the top of Zhang Xuan’s head, covering an area of 200 meters.

Another four Level 8 Skeleton Warriors joined in the sweep. Zhang Xuan specially left one behind to protect himself.

The main reason why Zhang Xuan chose to farm monsters in the forest was because he didn’t want to be seen by other professionals, even though the Skeleton Warrior was his summoned creature.

However, such a large number would inevitably attract attention. When the time came, people like Instructor Sun who lied about the invasion of the abyss would more or less affect his farming speed.

The forest was more dangerous than the plains in every aspect. The dense trees and shrubs gave many monsters a chance to hide. If they weren’t careful, they might be ambushed.

Moreover, the field of vision would also become very poor. It was very easy to get lost at night, so not many professionals were willing to enter this place.

However, the various drawbacks of the forest weren’t a big problem for Zhang Xuan. First of all, the Skeleton Warriors weren’t afraid of sneak attacks. They weren’t class changers and didn’t feel pain or fear.

There was definitely no monster in this forest that could insta-kill the Skeleton Warrior.

As the 39 Skeleton Warriors went deeper, a huge forest map quickly appeared in Zhang Xuan’s mind.

Complex terrain? Impossible.

“This Lingyue girl is really not bad. She’s already Level 5.”

“That’s right. From the looks of it, she’ll definitely be able to enter the Four Sages Academy this year. I wonder if she’ll…”

Halfway through their discussion, a notification popped up on the screen.

[Student Jiang Lingyue has exited the novice dungeon.]

Everyone knew that she was planning to leave the city in advance.

The novice dungeon, which had been silent for a long time, flickered with light. Jiang Lingyue exited. She glanced around and snorted before retracting her gaze.

The students present were all at Level 2 and they didn’t catch his eye at all. As for that guy, he should still be at Level 3, right?

At the thought of this, a mocking smile appeared on her lips. Then, she walked out without stopping and met Dean Gao and Jiang Longhai.

“Father, Principal, I request to leave to train in the suburbs. This time, I will definitely be number one!”

Seeing the arrogance on Jiang Lingyue’s face, Dean Gao, who had wanted to change the topic, didn’t know what to say.

“I’m not sure if I can get first place, but an hour ago, a Level 6 student left the dungeon early.”

Hearing Jiang Longhai’s words, the arrogance on Jiang Lingyue’s face instantly dissipated. She was in disbelief. “What?!”

In the northern suburbs of Xinyuan City.

It had to be said that the number of monsters in the wilderness was completely incomparable to the novice dungeon. Zhang Xuan’s experience bar was already at (96.8%) and he was very close to leveling up.

The 39 Skeleton Warriors were like merciless harvesting machines. All the monsters they encountered became Zhang Xuan’s experience points without exception!

Compared to other professions, Zhang Xuan was no different from picking up experience points in the past two hours. He had even accumulated a large pile of materials.

The endurance of Mages and Priests in battle was limited by the high consumption of spirit strength.

For frontal combat professions such as knights, they also had to consider the endurance consumption of long-term combat.

Especially before the equipment and skills in the early stages were formed, any profession would be restricted to a certain extent, even a hexagonal warrior like a Martial Artist.

However, Zhang Xuan had no such concerns at all. As a summoned creature, the Skeleton Warrior would only consume a certain amount of spirit energy at the beginning.

Most importantly, the Skeleton Warrior didn’t have the endurance of other classes and summoned creatures. In other words, as long as it wasn’t blown up, it could keep slashing!

However, the speed at which he gained experience was much slower than before. The Skeleton Warriors had already cleared out most of the monsters nearby.

[Ding! Level 10 Wild Gorilla killed. Experience +300]

[Prompt: Your level has increased to Level 8!]

After another 10 minutes, Zhang Xuan reached Level 8 with the last experience notification. The first thing he did was to open the skill panel and use two strong skill points to upgrade his class skills.

Zhang Xuan was slightly excited when he saw the introduction of the two professional skills after they were upgraded.

“There’s finally a change!”
