332 Keep Your Life
The next morning, the knocking on the door did not stop. Lin Xuan had no choice but to get up and open the door.
“Who the f*ck is that?” Lin Xuan was furious. He opened the door and there were two strong men outside. It was Li Rui and Jiang Bo. “Oh, just you. What’s going on? Why are you knocking on my door so early in the morning? Why does no one respect my sleeping time?”
“Lin Xuan, it’s time to get up. They’re going to announce the advancement list soon. Aren’t you nervous?”
Jiang Bo came in with a big bag of breakfast. Coincidentally, Li Rui also had a big bag of breakfast. The two of them bought it together.
“Nervous my *ss. So many people have died this time. I’m sure the competition committee won’t be able to gather enough people to participate. There will definitely be a lot of vacancies this time.
Lin Xuan was speechless. After receiving the news from the competition committee yesterday afternoon, the internet had been avidly discussing the death rate of this competition. It had dominated several headlines, not only in Taixia, but in other countries as well.
According to rumors, as long as one came back alive and had some results, one would be promoted.
“This is the first time I’m participating in the National High School League. I don’t have any experience!”
Previously, Jiang Bo was a bit worried that he had made it through. He was unlucky to encounter an earth-rank tail beast and was forced to come out after killing a few beasts. However, with the news of many participants dying everywhere, he became a bit relieved. After all, he had a special identity as one of the three head captains of the top nine universities in Taixia Country. It would be bad news if he didn’t enter the finals!
The three of them sat around the table and started inhaling the breakfast on the table. In the end, Lin Xuan even took out some grape juice to entertain his two friends. After killing the team from the Xiaori Country, the relationship between the three of them improved by leaps and bounds. They are considered comrades now!
Li Rui couldn’t help but sigh. The three of them were basically the representatives of the lower class people. They didn’t have any aristocratic family background. They were either orphans or ordinary families. To be able to cultivate their current realm and have their current strength was something that they worked extremely hard for. Reaching this point was not easy.
“So… where are you going for your internship after you graduate from high school? Do you want to go together?”
Jiang Bo felt that going to the southern border together would be a good idea. He was prepared to invite his two friends to go with him so that they could look out for each other.
“I can’t. My teacher has told me that I’m going to enter the National Security to investigate Taixia Country internally and defend against bandits externally.”
Li Rui shook his head. This matter had been decided when he was in his first year of high school. His teacher had arranged his path well and it could be considered a good home at that time.
“I’m not interested in that either. Compared to the southern border, I prefer to do things outside. Taixia Country might not be the place for me. I might consider having a look in Taihua.”
Lin Xuan also shook his head. As for Taihua, he only felt that it was interesting after reading the introduction, but he was not sure. Compared to the future goals that the two of them had already set, he had not actually set them yet. However, it will be soon. After the National High School League, there should be people looking for him.
Jiang Bo shook his head regretfully. “Alright then. Let’s meet up more often in the future. Maybe we can work together one day again! Come, cheers!”
The three of them sipped on their grape juice while waiting for news from the competition committee.
At nine in the morning, the official website of the league released the promotion list on time. As expected, all three teams were on it.
“You can finally relax now!”
Lin Xuan said to Jiang Bo in amusement.
“I guess there was nothing to be worried about.”
The following finals would be held in Shanghai. This had been decided last year, but now there seems to be some accident. The location of the competition was an out-of-the-ordinary place. Even the content of the competition was odd.
[Final Mission: Hunt the Black-scaled Lizard]
[Mission Location: Black-scale Island, Eastern Sea]
[Mission Objective: Earth-rank middle-level Black-scaled Earth Dragon (0/1), Earth-Rank low-level Black-scaled Earth Dragon (0/13), Mystic-rank High-level Black-scaled Lizard (0/54), Mystic-rank Middle-level Black-scaled Lizard (0/137), Mystic-rank low-level Black-scaled Lizard (0/512)]
[Mission Time: Three Days]
Lin Xuan, Su Tian, Luo Yan, the Lin sisters, Zhu Yuan, Zhao Hao, and the rest were all present in the conference room. Basically, all the members of the school team had come. Today’s main purpose was to discuss the matter of going to Shanghai tomorrow, but the competition committee had actually sent over the contents of the competition in advance.
“Which coastal city is the closest to the Black-scale Island?”
Lin Xuan thought about the mission and asked casually.
“Lianyun City!” After a while, Su Tian raised her head in disbelief and said to Lin Xuan.
“Lianyun City?!” Lin Xuan’s pupils shrank when he heard this answer. As expected, this final mission was very strange. Lin Xuan had some understanding of Black-scale Island. When he inquired about the members of the Sea of Chongsou, he found that they had some connections with Black-scale Island. With the mentality of wanting to understand more, he asked the information team to give him some basic information about Black-scale Island.
Black-scale Island was located at the edge of the East sea, and a small part of it was outside the East sea. Moreover, the Monster Kings on this island all had the dragon bloodline, or to be more precise, the black dragon bloodline. Lin Xuan had asked the principal about this place, and the principal said that Black-scale Island was a subsidiary force of the underwater superpower, Black Dragon City!
Lin Xuan squinted his eyes. If the Black Dragon City was involved in the fall of Lianyun City back then, then everything made sense now.
Not long after the news of the Dragon and Tiger competition’s finals arrived, the competition venue was also sent over. It really was going to be in Lianyun City!
Lin Xuan revealed a faint smile, ‘Taixia Country is going to make a big one this time!’
“Alright, get ready. We’ll leave for Lianyun City tomorrow!”
He wanted to learn more about the Black-scale Island, the Black-scaled Earth Dragon, and the Black-scaled Dragon. After all, they were earth-rank Demon Kings, and mid-earth level Demon Kings. Although they were not the top fighters, the nine of them were only at the peak of the mystic-rank level. If they were to fight one on one, they would be easily killed by the black-scaled Earth Dragon with one strike.
It seemed that they had to form a team this time, and there was a competition within the team. This was really interesting.
Lin Xuan had just walked out behind the stack of books when he saw a beautiful woman waiting for him outside the door. “Julia, what are you doing here?”
“What? Can’t I come over?”
“Are you here for the final round of Dragon and Tiger?”
“Yeah.”
Lin Xuan looked at her with a bitter smile. “Alright, let’s go to the tea house for a chat.”
He smiled bitterly because both Li Rui and Jiang Bo had sent him a message and he had asked to meet them at the teahouse.
“I’ve read the information. An earth-rank middle-level Demon King is not easy to deal with. If the four of us work together, we might have a chance!”
Jiang Bo was the first to speak, while Lin Xuan rolled his eyes at him. “Who gave you that idea? Does it look like we can even compete with a middle-level earth-rank Demon King and survive?”
Others might not know the power of a middle-level earth-rank Demon King, but he does. They might be able to deal with a low earth-rank Demon King after their combat power exploded, but they had no hope of fighting a middle-level earth-rank Demon King. They would be killed mercilessly..
“Then what should we do?”
