“Hahahaha!”

At the entrance of the testing grounds, Su Xun could not stop laughing.

Watching Lin Feng hurriedly deleting the data just now made him think of his past self.

However, at that moment, Su Qingqing walked over with a long face.

Hearing her grandfather’s laughter from far away, Su Qingqing’s expression had turned even more sour. She came to the old man in a flash and spoke.

“Grandpa, are you laughing at me? You know about it too?”

Su Xun was still lying on the recliner. The smile on his face lingered, but he shook his head.

“What? I’m smiling because… Forget it, I’m not telling you!”

Although he was shocked by the results of Lin Feng’s strength test and knew that Lin Feng had tempered his body at least four times in the Body-Strengthening Realm, this was still not enough. It only caused him to be shocked for a moment.

This was because Lin Feng’s spiritual root was simply too low grade. His horizons still did not look good.

Su Qingqing pouted, her expression souring.

“It’s all your fault. You asked me to intercede on Lin Feng’s behalf. Now, the school wants me to train him for a day. Do they really think I have nothing to do?”

Su Qingqing continued complaining.

“If I did not have to help the nightwalker academy find a few good students, I wouldn’t even be bothered to be a part-time guest instructor. Wouldn’t it be better if I were to take on the nightwalker mission myself?”

“It’s fine. Qin Yiren, Zhao Delong, and Dong Qingfang are all good prospects. I have to get in touch with them. It’s just that I’ll be behind schedule!”

However, Su Xun’s brows twitched when he heard his granddaughter’s complaints.

“Special training for Lin Feng? The little guy who confessed?”

Su Qingqing nodded. “What’s there to train? He’s just a piece of trash. What era are we living in? He’s still thinking about romantic conquests and confessing his love in public!”

“Moreover, he only has a D-grade five-elements spiritual root. He basically has no future and is wasting my time!”

As soon as Su Qingqing finished speaking, Su Xun smiled.

“Don’t complain. Maybe he will surprise you.”

“Also, if you really find any geniuses, don’t just think about your academy. After all, the academy belongs to the education division. Even if it’s a night patroller’s academy, it’s not an orthodox school of night patrollers. You’re also a night patroller, so you have to think about us!”

….

At the same time, in the Fifth Southern District, where the Qin family, one of the most powerful families in the central prefecture, lived, Qin Yiren had shut herself in ever since the morale-boosting rally. She had even rejected contact and recruitment from many parties.

She did not bother about Lin Feng’s confession. She did not take it seriously at all.

Her thoughts were centered on cultivation, and just like her speech, everything she did was to become stronger. She wanted to take over the heavy burden on her father’s shoulders and drive away the fierce beasts and monsters. This was her lifelong pursuit.

After the pledge ceremony, she had gone into seclusion with the qi condensation guiding treasure provided by her family. She was preparing to break through to the Qi Gathering Realm.

On this day, in the backyard of the Qin family’s residence, a wave of aura suddenly spread out.

Soon, someone in the Qin family exclaimed in surprise.

“You’ve broken through? This girl’s talent isn’t bad!”

“Water attribute S-grade spiritual root. It’s indeed extraordinary! ”

“Good job! The Qin family has found another gem!”

“She’s already in the Qi Gathering Realm. How can that piece of trash, Lin Feng, compare with our Yiren?”

The Qin family members were close by, so even if it was just a slight fluctuation, they all understood what it meant.

Qin Yiren had broken through and officially stepped into the Qi Gathering Realm from the Body-Strengthening Realm. It could be said that she had officially stepped onto the path of cultivation.

Qin Yiren was extremely talented. She had an S-grade spiritual root and had tempered her body six times in the Body-Strengthening realm. Her basic physical strength was as high as 5000 kilograms. Her explosive power was five times higher, sitting above 20000 kilograms.

Her foundation was extremely solid, but now that she had stepped into the Qi Gathering Realm, it was a whole new world. Her future was limitless.

In the training room, Qin Yiren was elated.

“I’ve finally made a breakthrough. Now, before the immortal examination, I’ll try to participate in the night patrolmen’s operations. If I can be specially recruited by the night patrolmen, maybe I can grow faster! ”

The Qin family was one of the top aristocratic families in the Great Zhou dynasty. The current night patrolman, the night patrol leader, and the secretary of the night patrol division was Qin Yiren’s father, Qin Shang.

It was also because of this relationship that she also had some privileges, such as following the night patrollers in advance to gain experience as a temporary team member.

This was her plan. Even if there were risks, she was not afraid as long as she could become stronger.

Of course, even as Qin Shang’s daughter, she had to go through the proper channels to join the night patrolman.

Under normal circumstances, those who were not specially recruited could only enter a cultivation academy and break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm before they could take the assessment and become part of the night patrol.

Only those in the Foundation Establishment Realm were qualified to join the night patrollers, and they could only participate in some ordinary operations. This was because the night patrollers dealt with mysterious non-human beings including strange monsters.

Of course, the others might have other choices, such as joining the monster slayers who were on par with the night patrollers. The monster slayers killed their enemies on the battlefield.

In Great Zhou, the strongest divisions were the demon slayer division and the night patrol division. One was in charge of conquering ferocious beasts, while the other was in charge of protecting the citizens at night.

Soon, Qin Yiren came out of seclusion. The Qin family had already arranged everything for her.

“Miss, you’ll follow Zhang Han, the captain of the 18th squad of the night patrollers in the Fifth Southern District, for the next few days! ”

“Hello, Captain Zhang!”

“Hello, Miss! I’ve already made the arrangements. It’s too risky to patrol at night, and it just so happens that we’ve been hunting down a group of important criminals recently. They should be members of the Heavenly Dao Association, and they might even have qi condensation treasures on them!”

“Alright, I’ll follow along with your plans, Captain Zhang! ”

…..

As for Lin Feng, he was also planning for his next move after returning from school.

Today, he had only tested his strength. He still did not know how strong he truly was.

It would be difficult to test his strength properly.

There were many enemies, and at night, there might even be strange monsters in the city. However, with the curfew in place, he did not dare to go out at night. Even if he had the Thunder of Fire, he was not confident that he could deal with the strange monsters.

After all, the weakest of the night watchers were at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

There were ferocious beasts in the wild. This was the best place to train low-level cultivators, but it was also very risky. After all, these ferocious beasts ate people without spitting out their bones.

On the other hand, he was also planning his second public confession.

As for rejection, he did not need to worry. Given Qin Yiren’s determined heart and her proud personality, she naturally would not entertain Lin Feng’s confession.

Now, Lin Feng was suffering from the fact that he did not have another chance to confess in public.

There was no reward for confessing his feelings in private.

He also had to receive special training from the terrifying teacher, Su Qingqing, the next day. Thinking of this gave him a headache.

He was not afraid of being tormented. On the contrary, he was afraid that his secret would be exposed.

Just when Lin Feng was wondering what he should do next, he received a message.

The message was sent by the class president, the prettiest girl in Grade 12 Class 4, and the second prettiest girl in the school, Dong Qingfang.

Dong Qingfang had an A-grade double-elemental spiritual root. She was quite talented and looked as pretty as Qin Yiren.

The only things she lacked were talent and family background.

As the class president, Dong Qingfang had a gentle personality and treated her classmates well, even classmates like Lin Feng.

The message she sent could only mean one thing. Three days later, there would be a gathering in Grade 12 Class 4. Not only would all the students in the class attend, but she would also invite the prodigies of the past and the seniors who were already cultivating in the various major academies to attend.

This was not just the last class gathering, it was also to encourage all the students in Class 4.

At the same time, as she was worried that Lin Feng would not attend, Dong Qingfang even specially invited Qin Yiren. She could help clear up the misunderstanding.

The form teacher had also specifically instructed Lin Feng to interact more with his classmates.

After receiving the message, Lin Feng felt helpless but could only agree.

Even though he was afraid to face his classmates, he had no choice but to do it for the sake of the rewards. After all, Qin Yiren had to attend the gathering as well!

He had been worried about not having a chance to confess again, and now the chance had come!
