Chapter 3: Endless Forbidden Spells (2/2)

"Brilliant!"

Imagining himself standing on the podium, delivering a speech after winning first place in the college entrance exam trial, the principal couldn't help but clap his hands in delight.

It had been five years since their Qingcheng High School had taken first place. Five years! Who knew how he had endured these five years?

Every year, he was mercilessly mocked by the principals of other high schools. The principal of Qingcheng High School had had enough.

"Ye Lin, good kid, come with me too! Hurry up!"

The excited principal led both Ye Lin and Zhuge Ni to the office.

"Student Ye Lin, student Zhuge Ni, I'm sure you know why I've called you here alone."

The principal looked at the two of them with shining eyes.

"You two are the hope of our Qingcheng High School in this year's college entrance exam trial!"

"So, tomorrow's novice secret realm is extremely important for you! I hope both of you can raise your levels to at least level 10 or above as much as possible!"

"Don't worry. Tomorrow, I won't assign you to take any students with support professions. I'll give you a chance to solo. So, I hope you won't let me down."

The principal said earnestly.

Generally speaking, when entering the novice secret realm, combat - type professions must team up with support - type professions to clear the levels, because support - type professions don't have the ability to fight alone.

Letting Ye Lin and Zhuge Ni solo means they will level up faster than others.

"Principal, I have no problem with that, but Ye Lin..." Zhuge Ni frowned slightly.

Let a Forbidden Spell Master solo in the novice secret realm? Isn't that like using a cannon to shoot a mosquito? He would cast a forbidden spell when encountering a level - 1 monster and also cast a forbidden spell when encountering a level - 5 monster. He might lose half his life after soloing, right?

"So, what do you mean?" the principal asked.

"Let me team up with Ye Lin. In this way, we are completely confident to penetrate deep into the secret realm. I'll deal with the low - level monsters, and when we encounter high - level ones, he can take action. This way, our leveling speed should be even faster!" Zhuge Ni said.

Although killing monsters in a team only gives half the experience, penetrating deep into the secret realm can save the time of looking for monsters. In the end, it might not be slower than soloing.

"Oh? Makes sense! That's really a good idea. What do you think, student Ye Lin?" The principal's eyes lit up.

"Principal, I'd still prefer to solo. I'm used to being alone." Ye Lin scratched his head naively.

Teaming up with Zhuge Ni would be too restrictive, and he also had to worry about revealing the secret of his immortal body. Ye Lin wasn't interested at all.

"What an ungrateful person."

Zhuge Ni's eyes turned a bit cold. She had wanted to help Ye Lin out of consideration for being classmates. After all, transferring to a short - lived profession like the Forbidden Spell Master was already bad enough. But she didn't expect Ye Lin to actually reject her.

Well, he would realize his mistake when he came out of the secret realm missing an arm or a leg.

"Then let him solo. Although your idea is good, student Zhuge, penetrating deep into the secret realm is still too risky." The principal made the final decision. He didn't care about the consequences of Ye Lin soloing or whether Ye Lin would have a short lifespan. All he wanted was the enrollment rate and the first place!

Even if Ye Lin lost half his life after clearing the novice secret realm, as long as he could achieve good results in the college entrance exam trial, that would be enough. Whether Ye Lin died or not later had nothing to do with him.

Then the principal took out two rings and handed them to Zhuge Ni and Ye Lin respectively.
