Chapter 423– Returning To The Base

TL : GoldenLung

They had only used 30% of the time to complete most of the missions and their harvest was far more than what the academy asked. This was undoubtedly a huge bonus for them.

Bing Tianliang and his team were the most excited. Their team only needed three types of rare metals to complete the mission, and they already had four of them. This meant that they could go back and complete the mission immediately. Not only would they complete it ahead of time, but they would definitely complete it in excess.

“Shall we head straight to the outer circle?” Bing Tian asked Lan Xuanyu.

It wasn’t just Lan Xuanyu’s team, Bing Tianliang’s team also had complete trust in Lan Xuanyu, not far from a blind one. contemporary romance

Lan Xuanyu smiled. “No, let’s return to the base and hand over what we’ve already obtained.”

“Return to the base?” Everyone looked at him in surprise.

Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, “Teacher Xiao didn’t say that we’re not allowed to come back halfway! Right? Let’s return to the base first before continuing the mission. This isn’t off the limits.”

“What are we going back for?” Dong Qianqiu asked curiously.

Lan Xuanyu smiled. “Go back to sleep, eat, and rest. We haven’t had much rest for the past 36 hours and have always been moving around. We need to rest and adjust ourselves. Brother Bing, you guys can complete the mission directly. You don’t have to follow us anymore.”

Bing Tianliang said angrily, “What are you talking about? We agreed to work together. This is what we had promised. You can’t just cast us off. I’ve realized that no matter what, as long as we’re with you, there will always be pleasant surprises and benefits. We will never let go of such an opportunity anymore in the future. Even if we have to be your team’s reserve members, we’re willing to do it. So, don’t try to shake us off!”

This time, it was Lan Xuanyu’s turn to be dumbstruck. He was that determined?

In fact, he didn’t know how much of an impact his actions had on Bing Tianliang and his team after coming to Shrek Academy.

When they saw them obtain a bunch of purple emblems after winning against the third years, their eyes had turned red! Bing Tianliang only went to issue an exchange item for him and had earned quite a few yellow emblems.

They didn’t understand why it was so difficult for everyone to earn emblems in the academy, but for Lan Xuanyu, everything seemed so simple? This guy’s brain was too developed. Just look, how much did the people who were with him gain in this semester? Even Yuanen Huihui, who only got to know him after entering the academy, had a second Martial Soul Awakening.

Initially, when Yuanen Huihui followed by Lan Xuanyu’s side and called him “big brother Xuanyu”, many students in the class thought that Lan Xuanyu had conned him. But after this semester, Yuanen Huihui’s cultivation was already close to the six-ring realm, his Martial Soul had mutated a second time, and his strength had increased explosively. Who was taking advantage of who?

Adding in this time’s mission for the final exam, Bing Tianliang had watched Lan Xuanyu create miracles and lead everyone to overcomplete the final exam mission’s requirements by a 1000 times. How could this not be exciting?

Putting everything else aside, as long as he brought these rare metals back and sold them to the academy, he would be able to exchange them for a hefty number of emblems!

A cubic meter of rare metals, even ordinary Heavy Silvers, could be exchanged for three or more yellow emblems. Their rare metals were almost all more precious than Heavy Silver and were worth several times more. Also, the price of rare metals in Shrek Academy was cheaper, as one of the academy’s benefits. In the outside world, the price would be much higher.

Just like the last type of rare metal they excavated, Lan Xuanyu was the only one who recognized it because he was the only one who had learned forging. This metal was called Heavenly Spirit Iron. It contained an extremely strong spirituality and its success rate of Spirit Forging far surpassed ordinary metals. It was over 20 times the price of Heavy Silver and was much easier to forge than other metals. Lan Xuanyu had spent the most time excavating it.

After going back and calculating the money, Bing Tian felt that even if the three of them had less, each of them could still get a purple emblem. This was simply like a pie falling from the sky. How could they give up just like that? They still had many days.

The group of ten people slowly found an entrance to the base and returned.

Facts proved that Lan Xuanyu was right. The academy never said that they were not allowed to return halfway. The time for completing the mission in five days was for every student. It was fine to return and rest, but it would also without a doubt delay time.

When Lan Xuanyu and his team were brought to a resting room and asked for a large amount of food, everyone began to gorge themselves.

Lan Xuanyu decided to rest for 10 hours before setting off again. They had plenty of time, and what they lacked now was only the last type of rare metal.

They were eating when Xiao Qi arrived.

When Xiao Qi walked into the resting room, he saw a group of hungry little guys gorging themselves. The corners of his eyes twitched.

Xiao Qi knew very well what Lan Xuanyu and his team did. Every student’s uniform had a special surveillance camera. Shrek Academy may sound serious on the surface, but in fact, the students were protected very tightly during the mission.

Hence, when for the first time Lan Xuanyu’s team was swept away, then landed, built an ice house, excavated rare metals, and accumulated large amounts of them, Xiao Qi saw all of it.

The colonel who was with him looked at him with his mouth agape. ‘Are all of your students so freakish ?’

This was almost comparable to the speed of the excavator machines. After all, in order to fight against the harsh environment, it was not easy for the base to collect rare metals. They had to drill underground to ensure their safety, and during this process, they had to avoid rocks and prevent collapse etc.

But Lan Xuanyu’s team had Tang Yuge, the human-shaped metal detector, and the excavation spots they found were all places with the most abundant metal ores.

Then, they watched helplessly as these little guys only used 30 hours to complete the excavation of four types of rare metals before they returned.

“Hello, Teacher Xiao.” Lan Xuanyu swallowed the meat in his mouth and smiled at Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi said with a cold expression, “Do you guys know that your actions are considered cheating?”

All ten of them raised their heads and looked at him in confusion.

Lan Xuanyu asked doubtfully, “Teacher, how did we cheat?”

Xiao Qi said, “You guys should be separated in two teams, but you acted in unison. This is cheating. You guys are not seven, but ten.”

Lan Xuanyu said, “But what you said before was that six people and above had to obtain five types of rare metals. We have six people and above!”

Xiao Qi scoffed. “That was targeted at the seven of you. Now that there are ten of you, it’s different again. Your mission has changed, including Bing Tianliang and his team. You need to obtain six types of metal to pass the test. Otherwise, if your results are not up to standard, all of your harvest will be confiscated.”

“This is not fair. Teacher, this is too unfair.” Upon hearing that they were going to take their harvest, Qian Lei immediately cried out in grief and indignation.

Xiao Qi scoffed, “If you want fairness, you have to rely on your strength.” With that said, he turned and walked out. As he walked, he thought to himself, ‘As if I couldn’t deal with these little things.’

“Teacher, wait.” Lan Xuanyu’s voice came over.

Xiao Qi turned around and looked at him. “Is there anything else?”

Lan Xuanyu then said, “Teacher, please find us a warehouse first and we will put our harvest there.”

The corners of Xiao Qi’s mouth twitched... ‘Harvest...’

Very soon, he saw all of their harvest. More than four cubic meters of rare metals...

There was a large pile of rare metals with the most part made of Heavenly Spirit Iron.
