Surrounded

In the end, the training timetable was ruthlessly issued.

Chapter 1: Hunter Basic Combat Techniques

Chapter 2: Hunter Theory

Chapter 3: …

…

The long training schedule made Lin Bai's scalp tingle.

With every line he read, the corner of Lin Bai's mouth twitched once.

This was because this meant that his reading time had been infinitely reduced…

These cultivation courses were useless to him!

Had they not considered establishing some reading courses?

Just as Lin Bai was complaining, Charlotte piled the thick mountain of teaching materials in front of Lin Bai with a bang.

Lin Bai smiled bitterly. "Teacher Charlotte, am… I allowed to request for leave in this course?"

Charlotte rolled her eyes at him as if he were useless. "Logically, yes."

Lin Bai's eyes lit up. In that case, could he apply for leave to go to the library?

"However…"

Lin Bai's heart skipped a beat. Something bad was about to happen!

"But?"

When this word was said, he would either die or be injured!

"However, your teacher is Garth… Requesting for leave from him? It's harder than winning the lottery," said Charlotte.

Lin Bai was extremely dejected. He no longer had the power to complain.

However, Charlotte did not forget to add insult to injury and said condescendingly, "It's best if you are aware of your current situation. You're just a piece of trash who got lucky and obtained a pass thanks to Su Ya."

"You still want to ask for leave? We're giving you a chance to become a phoenix, but it looks like you don't want to grab it! As they say, you cannot carve rotten wood!"

Lin Bai gnashed his teeth in hatred.

What the hell do you know?

Who killed the Ghost Priest? Who answered the question correctly? Who told the Fantasy Serpents apart?

Meanwhile, all Charlotte did was nag all day. However, due to her status as a teacher, it was not good for Lin Bai to disobey her in person.

He felt aggrieved!

Charlotte threw Lin Bai a complacent look and slammed the door.

Before Lin Bai could open the packaging of the teaching materials, the door opened again.

The person who entered was a complete stranger. Judging from his attire, he was also a teacher from Sorcha College.

"Are you Lin Bai?"

Lin Bai was stunned, then nodded.

"That's good. I'm your teacher, Garth. Class starts this afternoon. Don't be late."

Garth spoke very briefly. It seemed as if he was a man of few words.

Lin Bai hesitated for a moment, but still decided to take the risk.

He politely called out to Garth and smiled embarrassedly. Then, he asked tentatively, "Teacher Garth, if I want to request for leave… May I know what the rules are?"

Garth glanced at Lin Bai questioningly.

This person had just arrived and was asking for leave?

"If your or your family's lives are not in danger, you're not allowed to take leave."

The corners of Lin Bai's mouth twitched.

He really had to use his life to apply for leave!

Oh no, oh no. This Garth was a tough nut to crack!

…

In the afternoon.

The vast training ground was packed with people. There was no roof over the training ground, so the hot sunlight poured all the heat down mercilessly and burned the ground. Thus, the entire training ground was like a furnace.

The helpless Lin Bai could only drag his reluctant body to the training ground and mix with the other students. At the same time, he found a relatively inconspicuous spot for himself.

Then, Garth walked into the training ground as the bell rung.

Lin Bai discovered that Garth's eyes were scanning the college, as if he was looking for him. Only after meeting his gaze did Garth look away.

Lin Bai was speechless.

There's no need to be so concerned about him, right? Why was he specifically checking if he skipped class?

"Hello everyone, I'm Garth. I'll be your mentor from now on."

"Everyone should know that one of us is a Hunter."

"Let's invite him up and tell him about his experience in the Elementary Test."

Lin Bai had completely given up on his beautiful fantasies about this teacher.

Why was he treating him as a target the moment he got straight to the point?

Looking at Lin Bai's position, he just wanted to be an unknown nobody!

Thus, Lin Bai raised his hand. "Teacher… I have a question…"

Garth raised his eyebrows. "Speak."

"I want to use the bathroom."

"…" This time, it was Garth's turn to be speechless.

"I told you, if it isn't…"

"If I don't go to the washroom, my life will be in danger! Isn't this a simple principle!" Lin Bai beat him to it, blocking Garth's words.

Garth was speechless.

"Then go ahead." Garth actually showed a temporary weakness.

Lin Bai chuckled. His scheme had succeeded.

On the way to the toilet, he comforted himself.

He was not slacking off. This was a white lie for the sake of cultivation!

As long as he went to the toilet, he could secretly hide in the toilet and find an opportunity to sneak into the library!

It was impossible for Garth to keep an eye on him. After all, he had to teach other students.

As long as Lin Bai moved his attention away, that would be Lin Bai's chance!

Lin Bai stayed in the toilet and stood on the toilet bowl. Then, he quietly observed the situation outside through the vent in the toilet.

However, all he saw was a bald head.

Lin Bai suddenly felt a sense of guilt.

He was just pretending that he urgently needed the toilet. Thus, he couldn't stop someone who really needed the toilet!

Lin Bai quickly pushed open the door and wanted to offer the toilet to the bald man.

"Are you done?" The bald man asked.

Lin Bai scratched his head, not understanding the situation.

Why did this bald man seem so familiar?

"I'm your homeroom teacher, Betta," said the bald man. "Go back quickly after you're done."

Lin Bai's face twisted.

He was simply going to the toilet. Was there a need to monitor him like this?

Did he seem so unreliable?

"Eh… My stomach hurts again. I have to squat for a while more." Lin Bai pretended to be in pain and slowly retreated, returning to the toilet and closing the door heavily.

Since he couldn't use this method… he would have to find another way.

Lin Bai's gaze locked on the window on the wall of the toilet.

With great difficulty, Lin Bai stood on his toes on the toilet bowl and barely reached the window sill.

Then, he exerted strength in his hands and lifted himself up. He climbed onto the window sill and prepared to leave the toilet.

Just as Lin Bai's head reached out of the window, his eyes met Garth's.

"Hello, Teacher." Lin Bai awkwardly and politely greeted him.

"Is this what you meant by going to the toilet?" Garth asked with a stern expression as he stared at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai could not say anything. Could it be that everyone in this college was a stalker? Why were all of them staring at him as he went to the toilet?

Lin Bai immediately moved back his head. Then, he sat on the toilet and began to think about life.

The current situation was truly one where he was surrounded by enemies!

Even the Ghost Priest was not that troublesome!

After a difficult internal struggle, Lin Bai fully realized that he was at his wits' end and opened the door to the toilet.

Waiting for him were Garth and Betta, who were standing side by side.

"Run ten rounds around the training ground. I don't have to tell you the reason, right?" Garth's eyes were burning.

Lin Bai lowered his head miserably. He really did not dare to talk back.
