Chapter 33: Chapter 33: The Homeroom Teacher’s Shock and Warning

As he expected, when he personally admitted that he had created a new species, he could distinctly feel the teacher’s momentary shift in spirit, and he saw how the teacher’s expression changed from serious to ecstatic.

Wu Hai turned and looked down upon the Black Scale Naga who had killed all the Pigge Pigmen and were cleaning up the battlefield. His gaze was like that of a lecher looking at his most beloved goddess, he took a deep breath, and when he turned back around, the ecstatic look on his face had returned to seriousness as he asked in a deep voice:

“You, have you condensed the Creationist?”

Lin Xiao knew why his teacher had asked this, and he nodded seriously:

“Yes, as soon as I become a Demigod, I’ll receive the additional Godhood of Creation, as well as the Racial Godhood for this species.”

“Very good!”

Wu Hai showed a slight smile, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said:

“There will be an additional assessment in a bit. The old headmaster will open Endless Mode. Do your utmost, hang in there as long as you can. The last ten will get a Five Star Card, and if you’re among the top three, you could receive a rare card personally bestowed by the headmaster, including Divine Realm Cards, Profession Cards.”

He paused, a strange expression crossed his face as if he had thought of something, and he continued:

“With your Clan’s strength, in terms of overall strength, you are already comparable to Wan Chuan and Yuan Hong, with a ranking around the top twenty in the class. But I hope you can last until the final three. At that time, you will catch the old headmaster’s attention, and you may have a chance to get a spot in the Super Newcomer Summer Camp. If???? ”

Wu Hai clearly hadn’t finished speaking, but Lin Xiao instantly understood his meaning.

Just by seeing how exaggeratedly the class teacher reacted to the Black Scale Naga, he knew that creating a new species meant much more than just an increase in surface strength—it must have other implications.

If he could catch the old headmaster’s attention, there would definitely be significant benefits.

However..

He answered earnestly:

“I’ll try my hardest!”

He dared not make any promises; Wu Hai said that his current overall strength was ranked in the top twenty for the class, yet he was expected to get into the top three.

He would definitely do his best personally, but others were surely doing the same. He could only give it his all, without any certainty of reaching the top three.

Speaking of which, Lin Xiao also felt a secret shock. His five hundred Naga, coupled with over two thousand Fishmen, could only rank in the top twenty of the class, not even the top ten. His fellow students were like hidden dragons and crouching tigers—surprisingly strong beyond his expectations.

He still lacked sufficient accumulation. If only he had a bit more time.

However, Lin Xiao felt no regret. Overall strength was just surface strength; the real test of prowess would come in actual combat.

The teacher couldn’t see the specific attributes of the Black Scale Naga, and thus didn’t know the various talents and specialties possessed by his race, nor their advancement limits.

Lin Xiao’s plan was to perform as best as he could; if he failed, he shouldn’t be discouraged. As long as he was in the top ten, there would be rewards. The top three would be ideal, but it wasn’t essential. As great as the headmaster’s rewards might be, could they really surpass those from the school’s end-of-term examination?

This was clearly not the case. Otherwise, it would be a case of the tail wagging the dog. This was just an elimination round, an appetizer for the end-of-term exam. The headmaster couldn’t possibly offer overly precious rewards.

In a certain half-plane, Sang Ping, who was full of confidence before the elimination round, now looked pale and dejected as he watched over the half-plane, where over a hundred Pigge Pigmen were scattered, chasing down the less than a hundred of his own Clan members.

Though the numbers were roughly the same, his Clan consisted of Little Dwarf Goblins—a small, humanoid magical creature—diminutive in stature, with pointed ears like fairies, green eyes, and twisted smiles, wielding specially made small spiked clubs and short javelins.

His preparation was much more thorough than Lin Xiao’s, but in terms of cultivating his Clan, he fell far short of Lin Xiao. After over twenty years of preparation, he had accumulated more than sixteen hundred Little Dwarf Goblins.

With a combat power that could only be imagined to be half that of a Pigge Pigman’s height, the performance in the first two waves was not bad, with casualties around one quarter; but once the Pigge Pigmen emerged, a single charge was enough to break the formation.

Over twelve hundred Little Dwarf Goblins facing off against three hundred Pigge Pigmen was already a struggle; the decisive moment came when a small portion of the Clan, whose wills were not firm enough, fled under the Pigge Pigmen’s intimidation, leading to a complete collapse.

The half-plane was only so large; there was nowhere to escape.

Not all members of the Clan had perished, but Sang Ping had already foreseen his defeat.

Usually ranking in the top twenty of his class, he had not even passed the elimination round; he could already envision the surprised looks of his classmates after the final exams were over.

In another half-plane, over thirty blood-covered Goblins worked together to kill the last Pigge Pigman. All the Goblins were so exhausted that they flopped down on the ground, and from a high vantage point, the desolate wasteland was littered with corpses.

In the sky of the half-plane, a golden figure sat on his rear in the Void, wiped off a non-existent sweat with his hand, let out a long breath, feeling a sense of having survived a great disaster.

This scenario played out in different half-planes; some held on til the end only to fall short, some struggled through with great effort, others with substantial strength had spare energy after killing all the Pigge Pigmen, and then there were some planes already devoid of people, eliminated before even reaching the third trial.

In the half-plane where Lin Xiao was located, as the last Pigge Pigman was killed, a prompt popped up before his eyes:

“Lin Xiao, congratulations on passing the first-year high school final exam elimination round. You have advanced.”

After this prompt lasted for about ten seconds, a new one appeared:

“Please make your choice within fifteen seconds: choose to leave now and return, or opt for an additional challenge. Those who perform exceptionally in the additional challenge will receive an extra reward. Your performance in the additional challenge will not count toward the elimination round score. If no choice is made after fifteen seconds, you will default to leaving.”

A countdown appeared after the prompt, ticking down rapidly.

Lin Xiao immediately said:

“I accept the additional challenge.”

“The additional challenge mode is Endless Mode. It will begin in ten minutes. Please prepare, Lin Xiao.”

“Endless Mode?”

He was quite surprised.

The so-called Endless Mode was a trial with no end, where the portal would continuously spawn monsters non-stop until the challenger was killed. It was typically used for extreme challenges.

Of course, it was also the test most likely to push the challengers to display their absolute strength. Whoever could last the longest was naturally the strongest.

The class head teacher, Wu Hai, also received the prompt. He patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder affectionately and said:

“Endless Mode was proposed by the old principal. Just do your best and show your potential; I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After speaking, he stepped back and exited the half-plane, as speaking further would be breaking the rules.

“I will.”

Lin Xiao nodded, and his expression became solemn as he looked into the half-plane. After pondering for a moment, he issued a Divine-mandate to all the Clan within the half-plane:

“Evil has risen, and Darkness is coming. Brave warriors, 1 watch over you from the heavens.. Take up your weapons and overcome evil!”
