It’s important to know that among the students present, most haven’t even seen a vampire, let alone killed one. And even if they did encounter one, they might not possess the ability to kill it.
Therefore, they admire those students who can actually fight. Without combat experience, one is not a qualified warrior, and certainly not eligible to be a Guardian.
"Miss Luofei, your fiancé’s skills are impressive. Five thousand points, that’s sothing many students dream of. This record is probably enough to get him into the Hall of Fa, right?" Lin Tian smiled as he looked at Yuwen Luofei.
Yuwen Luofei was indifferent to the term "fiancé" and instead softly asked, "I heard you defeated a high-level vampire, is it true?"
She showed no pride for Li Wenfeng, which puzzled Lin Tian. However, without much thought, Lin Tian smiled and said, "Soone as handso as always relies on my looks rather than my skills."
Since Reina Sword Saint ntioned keeping it a secret, Lin Tian naturally wouldn’t reveal the situation at Sorlin Castle, so he casually joked.
Zhu Li couldn’t help but cover her mouth while laughing; Miss rolled her eyes flirtatiously at him, then said to Yuwen Luofei, "Miss Luofei, this guy is just narcissistic, don’t mind him. This matter truly can’t be disclosed; Instructor Reina has ordered to keep it secret for now."
Yuwen Luofei nodded and said, "There are too many circulating rumors in both academies; I’m just a bit curious, trying to verify them. Since the academy doesn’t allow it to be disclosed, instructors must have their reasons."
The little girl spoke softly, with a faint blush on her cheeks, appearing gentle and lovely, which shocked Lin Tian greatly. Since when did Yuwen Luofei speak so softly? In previous etings, she was quite the spirited tomboy.
"Teacher, why is there only a reward for Li Wenfeng’s team, but not for Senior Xiao Manxue’s team?" a student suddenly asked.
The excited students finally cald down and noticed the absence of information about the other team in the announcent.
Lin Tian thought it was due to the students’ request for confidentiality, so there wasn’t an announcent. Then unexpectedly, the teacher quickly said, "Almost forgot, there’s another notice that hasn’t been posted."
This caused the crowd to fall over with laughter, as the teacher took out a parchnt notice from his pocket and pasted it on the bulletin board. Everyone’s gaze imdiately focused on the new notice, and as they saw the content clearly, the entire plaza suddenly fell silent.
With a "bang," a male student suddenly collapsed, but within three seconds, he got back up, supporting himself on a nearby companion.
"Brother, support...support , my legs gave out."
"Damn it, don’t lean on , my legs are weaker than yours!"
"Ah..." soone scread again, and more strange noises erupted.
A student pointed at the notice, stamring, "Fifty...fifty...thousand points!"
"I must be seeing things, there’s no way it’s fifty thousand points!"
"Quick, count the zeros."
"Holy crap, it really is fifty thousand points, Lin Tian actually got fifty thousand points!"
After the silence, the noise in the plaza gradually started again, eventually turning into a buzzing discussion. When everyone ca to their senses, their gazes focused on Lin Tian.
"Lin Tian, you got fifty thousand points!" Zhu Li suddenly grabbed Lin Tian’s arm, speaking excitedly, the little girl no longer caring about feeling shy.
Yuwen Luofei simply stared at Lin Tian, speechless, as did Xiao Manxue. Though she had gone through the entire experience, she hadn’t expected the academy to give an "outsider" such a high points reward.
To the academy, Lin Tian isn’t a student, indeed he’s an outsider. Fifty thousand points completely shattered all records, whether for official students or previous external awardees. Never has anyone received such a high points reward.
Yet upon reflection, Xiao Manxue found it reasonable. Anyone who witnessed the scene would consider fifty thousand points well-deserved. She even felt fifty thousand points were too few, that no reward could be excessive.
Saving two instructors, slaying a fierce vampire, lifting the curse from Sorlin Castle’s residents—these achievents are unparalleled, as they’ve eclipsed the academy’s instructors.
Xiao Manxue could speculate, if Lin Tian were a student of the academy, the reward would certainly exceed fifty thousand points.
Amid the shock, the Frostwind Team felt awkward and mortified beyond disbelief. Just earlier, they were bragging about their captain’s uniqueness in the world, but now the fifty thousand points made them eat their words.
Being their captain, Li Wenfeng’s face was gloomy, just the number fifty thousand crushed him entirely. Comparing it to his five thousand, Li Wenfeng’s proud heart suffered a critical blow of ten thousand points damage, both physical and psychological.
The calst person was Lin Tian; he felt no desire for those points at all. He even wondered, if he reported the butler’s details to the academy and uncovered the Sinmore Clan’s hideout, how many points would the academy reward? Of course, he was just speculating.
"Teacher, could it be that the academy made a mistake? Fifty thousand points, such an unprecedented reward?" a student loudly questioned.
"Yeah, did they maybe write it wrong?" Several students voiced their doubts, especially the Frostwind Team mbers, who seed to see hope again, questioning the most fervently.
The teacher, however, calmly scanned the room and then sternly reprimanded, "I’m worried about your intelligence. Second place Xiao Manxue got ten thousand points, third place Zhu Li received five thousand points, and first place Lin Tian earned fifty thousand points; is there any mistake? You bunch of unserious fellows, a brain is a good thing—use it frequently, don’t let it rust!"
The reprimand was rather harsh, but nobody dared refute it. Even the third-place Zhu Li had the sa points as Li Wenfeng, making their criticisms seem rather nonsensical.
The Frostwind Team fell silent instantly, speaking softly after a while, "But fifty thousand points, it’s just too absurd; the notice only shows the points reward and not their achievents; we don’t accept it!"
"Yes, we don’t accept it!" Frostwind Team mbers cheered in unison.
The other students didn’t feel the sa dissatisfaction but indeed were puzzled as to what kind of task could warrant such high rewards of fifty thousand, ten thousand, and five thousand points.
With so many rumors circulating yesterday, everyone knew they were unreliable, hence the urgent curiosity to know the truth: What task did Lin Tian’s team complete?
The crowd eagerly gazed at the teacher, hoping for an explanation. The teacher didn’t reprimand this ti but said seriously, "The task content undertaken by Xiao Manxue’s team is confidential; the academy has stipulated that it should not be disclosed."
Not getting the desired answer, a wave of groans arose, but the curiosity grew stronger—what kind of task required the academy to keep it secret?
