Chapter 988: Chapter 989: Examination Over

"Cough! Cough! What on earth did he do!"

Guo Huai muttered to himself as he looked around at the choking black mist, thinking that Feng Yuan’s Reaper’s Scythe would strike him directly; instead, it fiercely slashed the ground, raising a thick black fog that made him feel uncomfortable because of the strange scent mixed within.

At that moment, the Dreamland Mist he had laid out earlier had lost its effect. Realizing this, Guo Huai immediately understood the opponent’s intention, and his system also lost track of Feng Yuan, uncertain whether the opponent was using his powers to become invisible or if the black mist prevented the system from detecting him.

However, without the ability to use Dreamland Mist, Pu Pu’s powers were greatly limited. Although Guo Huai was somewhat conflicted, he did not give up. Gritting his teeth, Guo Huai looked at Pu Pu, who nodded in understanding and agreement with his plan.

"What the hell is that guy up to..."

Agunas shook its tail speechlessly. The big disturbance caused by Feng Yuan had startled it. Fortunately, the attack wasn’t directed at Guo Huai; otherwise, it would have wondered what Feng Yuan really wanted to accomplish. However, the mist that blocked its senses... this guy really was... Agunas shook its tail uneasily.

"Creating phantoms at full force, huh? It’s not impossible, but..."

Casually extinguishing the Guo Huai phantom in front of him, Feng Yuan looked around. In the interest of fairness, he hadn’t used excessively foul play, so the mist also obstructed his vision. Holding a dagger in his right hand, he tapped his head lightly as he complained of a headache,

"This really is like playing hide and seek..."

After some thought, Feng Yuan closed his eyes, clenched the dagger before his eyes, and thin black lines spread from the ground beneath him in all directions. After a while, a sinister smile appeared on his face, and Feng Yuan waved his dagger lightly,

"So, using this tactic, huh?"

Hiding in the shadows, Guo Huai noticed the constantly fluctuating values of the black lines and inwardly cursed. Although he couldn’t recognize what it was, since his system displayed values for it, it definitely represented some kind of special ultimate move’s power. And at this moment, no one other than Feng Yuan would utilize such a special ultimate move.

Before Guo Huai could think further, seeing the black lines shoot towards him, he immediately leaped from his hiding spot and rolled on the ground to dodge the attack. Noticing more and more black lines around him, Guo Huai retreated a few steps. Suddenly feeling something pressing against his back, he turned his head and saw Feng Yuan looking at him with a smile. Guo Huai lunged forward, and Pu Pu instantly released an Energy Impact, attempting to repel Feng Yuan.

But the Energy Impact seemed ineffective as neither Feng Yuan nor the black lines were affected. As Feng Yuan approached with a sinister smile, Guo Huai felt an inexplicable fear. Just then, his system pinged once more. After reading the severely disrupted message in his system, Guo Huai’s expression changed to a mocking smile as he looked at Feng Yuan,

"Tsk, it might be a bit like cheating, but that’s also part of your own equipment, so fine, consider yourself passed."

Scanning Guo Huai, Feng Yuan flicked his hand dismissively and said, the opponent looking somewhat palpitatingly at him as he scanned the surroundings, apparently trying to confirm something. Seeing Guo Huai’s reaction, Feng Yuan said with some amusement,

"Come on, I wouldn’t set you up with an endless nightmare during a mere ordinary assessment. Plus, hasn’t your system returned to normal now?"

"Whew—you must be the last batch of candidates. Hurry on then."

After checking the message sent by his system, Guo Huai breathed a sigh of relief. He had genuinely been worried that Feng Yuan would trap him in an endless recursive nightmare. However, upon further reflection, although it was not impossible, it would defy the purpose of the assessment, making such an uninterrupted nightmare unsuitable for use in assessments, as even the Special Duty Team members could barely claim they could withstand it.

Looking at Feng Yuan lying on the grass, Guo Huai thought for a moment and then started running towards the front.

"What’s up?"

Seeing Xiao Ji looking at him worriedly, Feng Yuan asked with some confusion as Agunas landed beside him,

"What’s going on with you?"

Turning into Little Husky and lounging on the grass, Feng Yuan yawned and said,

"It’s nothing, just suddenly relaxed and felt a bit tired..."

Hearing this, Veronia waved her hand, and a rainbow bubble appeared in front of him. Looking at Veronia, Feng Yuan smiled, jumped onto the rainbow bubble, and lounged on it with his eyes half-closed,

"Then please take me back～"

"Are you... okay?"

Already waiting at the resting spot, Qi Chen, seeing the Little Husky lounging on the rainbow bubble with half-closed eyes, asked worriedly as Agunas shook its tail,

"Being a bit tired is the most it should be, your evaluation intensity isn’t much of a challenge for him."

Veronia glanced at Agunas with a hint of disdain, just then Little Husky’s ears twitched, and opening his eyes, Little Husky looked around and said,

"Umm... are we back? Thanks~"

"Hey~ how did the test go?"

Patting Qi Chen on the shoulder, Feng Yuan asked with a smile, and Dou Yanlan smiled slightly and said,

"Do you have anything else to handle?"

Looking puzzled at Dou Yanlan, Feng Yuan who had jumped out of the bubble and returned to his original form, scratched his head and said,

"No, why?"

"How about we go have dinner together?"

Dou Yanlan suggested mysteriously. Nearby, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yan. He had overheard Dou Yanlan’s phone conversation earlier, and naturally knew about Dou Yanlan’s plans. After thinking it over, Feng Yuan said,

"Sure, let’s go~"

"Do we especially need to go back to the school cafeteria to eat?"

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan was somewhat puzzled. They had already moved out of the school dorms, so why make a special trip just for food? Leading the way ahead, Dou Yanlan didn’t explain anything. Following Dou Yanlan, walking past the playground and dormitories, Feng Yuan sighed looking at the familiar dormitory buildings.

"Campfire?"

Feng Yuan looked at Dou Yanlan with some surprise. He hadn’t expected her to be so bold, considering she was quite rule-abiding in his view. Wasn’t having a campfire in the school’s small forest typically something he would do?

"Relax, we’ve spoken to the teachers, and the school has agreed."

Chen Xin said while setting up the food, with Bai You helping her busily. Seeing that Pei Yu and Zhong Liuyan were also here, Feng Yuan was surprised, as they had already been accepted into Great Xia Academy. He hadn’t expected them to still be in Maomu City. Guo Huai handed Pu Pu a fruit and looked at Feng Yuan, saying,

"You really don’t hold back, do you?"

Understanding what he meant, Feng Yuan pursed his lips and said,

"Who told you to cheat? It might not be severe, but strictly speaking, that was definitely cheating, okay?"

"Who says so! That... that’s also my partner!"

Looking at Guo Huai, Feng Yuan wasn’t too surprised; he knew the specifics of his system quite well. Strictly speaking, his system’s AI was somewhat akin to a special Spirit Beast, and according to its habits, that’s probably what it would have done.

"Since the school has agreed, why not~"

Feng Yuan said, waving his hand, and spheres of light floated in the air, illuminating the small forest. Agunas looked at Feng Yuan somewhat speechlessly and said,

"Though the school has allowed it, don’t be too arrogant, okay..."

No matter how you put it, this seemed a bit improper. The school probably agreed to their request considering Feng Yuan’s contributions, but if it was too excessive, it might not look good for the school.

Veronia shook her little hand, and a special barrier enveloped the area. Looking defiantly at Agunas, Veronia said,

"Is this okay?"

Swishing his tail, Agunas didn’t want to criticize her, only hoping that the Special Duty Team wouldn’t think something was wrong here, as Veronia’s barrier had a pretty strong energy response. Qi Chen glanced at the colorful spheres in the sky, continually shifting colors and casting an unusual glow over the area. He didn’t say much, considering today was a celebration for almost completing the exams. Although there were still some evaluations like potential checks scheduled for tomorrow, they were mostly routine and didn’t need to be taken too seriously. As long as the practical exams were over, everyone would generally relax and prepare for the graduation celebration.
