“Everyone, raise your heads and look at people through your nostrils.”
Mingxi didn’t act out of turn and followed the others in looking up.
The platform they were on was equipped with an isolation shield, so even if the outside world was like the end of days with strong winds and heavy rain, this space remained dry and calm.
The only thing that felt a bit uncomfortable was the layers of gloomy mist that also surrounded them.
It created an ominous atmosphere.
This gloomy mist was the Lantern Ghost’s unique domain, called the Gloomy Mist Domain, which could spread for hundreds or thousands of ters.
Deep within the gloomy mist, blindness, depression, hallucinations, and even death were all possible.
However, the gloomy mist also had the effect of cultivating rare dicinal herbs and fostering dark-attribute energy crystals.
Most miraculously, Demon-type and Ghost-type Transcendent creatures had a certain chance of awakening new skills when within it.
In other words, despite this Lantern Ghost appearing eerie and the environnt being so harsh, there would be no shortage of good things on the island.
Mingxi wasn't very interested in treasure hunting, but now that Golden Yuanbao had awakened its Demon-type, it could train using the Lantern Ghost’s Gloomy Mist Domain.
Who knows, it might even awaken so new skills?
Skills, who would complain about having too many?
“Thunder.”
Golden Yuanbao had already activated its shrinking bracelet, turning into a small bird and flying back to Mingxi’s shoulder, where it was proudly preening its shiny feathers.
“Eh? How did Bei Yi Vocational High School send so many people? ...15, 16...21...24...My goodness! 29! Our school doesn’t even have a fraction of that!”
“Isn’t that normal? Because they are Bei Yi Vocational High School, and your school is just a third-rate high school.”
“Brother, I don’t like what you’re saying. Are you calling the number one Beast High School in Hengzhou Province, Hengling Region, a third-rate high school?”
“Heh heh, compared to Bei Yi Vocational High School, what else is your school but third-rate?”
The student who was retorted was speechless for a mont, clearly also believing that his own school was far inferior to Bei Yi Vocational High School.
Mingxi shook her head. Ever since she had encountered the four ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) teachers and students from Bei Yi Vocational High School in the Icefield Sea, her impression of Bei Yi Vocational High School had changed from:
“This is an elite school with a strong chuunibyou atmosphere, but still many comndable aspects.”
To:
“This is a strange school with a strong trashy atmosphere, and quite a few shady aspects.”
She had completely turned from a passerby to an anti-fan.
Mingxi hoped that the special training students from Bei Yi Vocational High School would change her impression of Bei Yi Vocational High School during the upcoming month of Joint Training Camp life.
However, the number of people from Bei Yi Vocational High School participating in the Joint Training Camp showed that their status in Dragonflower Country was indeed very high.
It should be known that Tide Beast High School, including her as a trial student, only had 11 people who could enter the Joint Training Camp.
But Bei Yi Vocational High School, besides having two team leaders, sent a full 27 students.
“As expected of Bei Yi Vocational High School, these people didn’t even bat an eye when they were suddenly flung into the air.”
“So fast! The way they used their pet beast skills was just perfect.”
“Look over there, they actually thought of having a Ground-type pet beast use Tackle to reduce wind speed, and this is in the air? How did they manage that?”
“In less than a minute, soone has already climbed to the middle section. This speed is incredible!”
“Bei Yi is Bei Yi. Compared to them, students from our other high schools seem a bit like trash.”
“...You shouldn’t say that carelessly. You yourself might be trash, but soone definitely isn’t.”
The young man gestured with his eyes towards the tall and straight young woman not far away.
They themselves might indeed not be able to compare to the students of Bei Yi Vocational High School, but there was still a monster present.
Having witnessed the young woman’s strength firsthand, who would dare say she was inferior to the geniuses of Bei Yi Vocational High School?
The young man he reminded imdiately realized the mistake in his words and quickly covered his mouth.
He added, “She doesn’t count!”
A monster who had cultivated her pet beast to General-level at just 14 years old, they, this group of diocre geniuses, were not worthy of being compared to her, alright?
“Junior.”
Beside Mingxi, two figures stood at so point.
Jian Lian and Luo Ta.
Mingxi looked at the two with slightly reserved expressions and nodded to them: “Hello, Senior.”
Seeing her friendly attitude, not pushing people away, Jian Lian breathed a sigh of relief.
He imdiately revealed his neat white teeth, putting on an enthusiastic smile again, and asked, feigning curiosity: “Junior, what do you think of the performance of these students from Bei Yi Vocational High School?”
The young man’s question was a bit unexpected for Mingxi.
She slightly lowered her gaze.
It seed this cheerful young man wasn’t as... as his personality suggested.
She glanced at his bulging pectoral muscles.
Hmm, all brawn and no brains.
“So-so.”
She didn’t hide her indifference towards Bei Yi Vocational High School.
Jian Lian raised an eyebrow, “I thought you’d think they perford pretty well, after all, none of them lagged behind.”
Mingxi smiled, her expression tinged with sarcasm,
“When an ergency occurs, one person staying calm is temperant, two people staying calm is an advantage, three people staying calm ans the school trained them well... 27 people all staying calm is clearly telling everyone that they were prepared in advance.”
Even she had been a bit flustered in that situation at the ti, and the reason she wasn’t embarrassingly flung out was entirely due to her B-level physical fitness, allowing her to maintain her composure!
And these students from Bei Yi Vocational High School?
Every single one of them was as calm as if they were having afternoon tea at a cafe.
What a joke!
Jian Lian and Luo Ta exchanged glances.
Luo Ta spoke on behalf of both: “Then why do you think they didn’t hide it at all? They were so obvious, aren’t they worried about being found out? After all, there aren’t only fools here.”
Mingxi looked at this senior who seed very intelligent, and curved her lips, “If you were the king of a country, would you care if your subjects found out you possessed supre privileges?”
Power and status are the most clear-headed; they never talk to you about morality or bottom lines.
People who are used to being high above don’t need to deliberately show off their superiority.
Because they are superiority itself.
Being radiant is truly not their fault.
“So, Junior doesn’t think they’re cheating this way?” Luo Ta’s eyes glead behind his glasses.
Mingxi gave an answer that even he hadn’t anticipated.
He had originally thought she would say: “They are deliberately showing off, showing off how unique Bei Yi Vocational High School is.”
But Mingxi’s answer was a completely new understanding.
Recalling the performance of so students from Bei Yi Vocational High School in the past two years, he found that Mingxi’s explanation might be closer to the truth.
Isn’t it natural for a king to have privileges?
No need to hide it, and even less need to show off.
“Cheating? The rules of the Joint Training Camp weren’t set by . As long as the instructors don’t think they’re cheating, what reason do I have to question it?”
Mingxi’s words made the two young n stunned again.
“Don’t you feel it’s unfair at all?”
Jian Lian asked sowhat eagerly, as if he desperately needed so kind of affirmation.
