12 Force Warrior, Reward For Top Scholar

Stone Sun Secondary School?

Mo Xiaobai's pupils constricted when he heard what Liu Gaoxuan said. He looked at the five youths behind Liu Gaoxuan. They were around the same age as him.

There were two night spirits, one human, one elf, and one barbarian.

At this moment, the five students from Stone Sun Secondary School were looking at Mo Xiaobai and his friends. They were smiling just like Liu Gaoxuan.

Liu Gaoxuan glanced at Mo Xiaobai and his friends and smiled brightly. "Are these the geniuses of your current batch of students? Not bad. This little fellow is already at the peak of Body Tempering."

Liu Gaoxuan looked at Mo Xiaobai.

"However, our Li Yushu just achieved his breakthrough and became a Force Warrior. It looks like the top scholar for this batch will be from our Stone Sun Secondary School again."

Behind Liu Gaoxuan, a handsome night spirit young man glanced at Mo Xiaobai and his friends quickly and retracted his gaze. His gaze was extremely arrogant.

Hong Shi looked at Li Yushu, and slowly said, "There's still one month until the university entrance exam. It's not the end. Who knows what the result will be?"

"Hahaha, is that so?" Liu Gaoxuan was stunned for a moment before he started laughing. "We will compare after the university entrance exam then."

Hong Shi scoffed, "We will be going back now. Please go on your way too."

He shifted his gaze away from Liu Gaoxuan and looked at his three students. "Let's go."

Hong Shi walked past Liu Gaoxuan with his three students and went to the plaza.

After taking a few steps, Mo Xiaobai could faintly hear the laughter of contempt behind him.

…

After leaving Liu Gaoxuan and his students, Meng You's expression was a little furious as he said, "The people from Stone Sun Secondary School are really disgusting. All of them are so arrogant."

They looked at him as though they were looking at a bunch of trash.

Mo Xiaobai and Lin Mengyu nodded in agreement.

Hong Shi's expression was stern as he slowly said, "But they have the ability to be proud. They produced the top scholar for the past five consecutive years. This year, they have a Force Warrior."

"But…" Hong Shi's slightly plump face started twitching. "He just achieved his breakthrough and became a Force Warrior. We still have a chance. You need to work harder, not just for the school, but for yourself too.

"If you can become the top scholar of our Pingxi Town, you will receive a reward from the school as well as the education department of our town."

The three students nodded their heads seriously. "I understand, Director Hong."

Mo Xiaobai felt frustrated. He really hated how arrogant that Li Yushu was.

He curiously asked, "Director Hong, what rewards will the top scholar receive?"

Hong Shi smiled, and replied, "The school will reward the top scholar with 500 pieces of first-rank force technique crystal remnants. The reward given by the town is different every year. It might be force items, force technique crystal remnants, or other things. However, it will be something good."

Mo Xiaobai was a little excited.

He received a flawless grade refined force technique, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to become the top scholar of the town, right?

***

As they were speaking, they had already reached the central plaza of the adventurers' base. They passed through the plaza, and came to the light door.

This was their second time passing through the light gate, so Mo Xiaobai and his friends were already well-prepared. They weren't nervous anymore.

Leaving the hollow realm didn't require any money. Hong Shi passed the white token to the staff, and the few of them walked out of the railings successfully.

Lin Mengyu and Meng You used the force technique crystal remnants they got from the graystone hill to buy some Body Tempering Potion, which would be used to increase their cultivation speed.

As for Mo Xiaobai, he had already reached the peak of Body Tempering and received a beginner level refined force technique. He planned to keep the crystal remnants and use them for cultivation.

After Lin Mengyu and Meng You finished buying their things, Hong Shi led them out of the Expedition Center.

The school bus from Moonlight Secondary School was already waiting for them outside.

The sky was getting darker. Lessons in school had already ended.

After they boarded the school bus, Hong Shi requested the bus driver to send the three students home.

Along the way, the three students kept discussing the hollow realm excitedly. They talked about the university entrance exam too.

Since they were talking about the university entrance exam, they would naturally mention the Stone Sun Secondary School.

Lin Mengyu unhappily said, "I really hope that those arrogant fellows would suffer some serious injuries and lie in the hospital for a month."

"…" Mo Xiaobai.

He looked at Lin Mengyu with wide eyes.

How vicious!

But, I like it!

Meng You secretly shifted his butt and moved away from Lin Mengyu.

***

Very soon, the school bus stopped outside the district Mo Xiaobai lived in.

"Xiaobai, see you tomorrow."

Lin Mengyu and Meng You bade farewell to Mo Xiaobai.

Mo Xiaobai waved at them, and stood up to alight the school bus.

The sky had already turned dark green. Even the last ray of orangey-red light got swallowed by the darkness.

Mo Xiaobai entered his district. As he walked along the small path, he met Ning Feng walking over with three bodyguards.

When he saw Mo Xiaobai, Ning Feng gave a refreshing smile. "Xiaobai, you're back? I heard from Brother Mo You that you participated in the elites' trial of your school?"

Mo Xiaobai smiled and nodded. "Yes, Uncle Ning. I just came back from the hollow realm."

Ning Feng nodded. He patted Mo Xiaobai's shoulder. "Not bad, not bad, you're more outstanding than your Uncle Ning. I only went to the hollow realm when I was in my second year in university."

Mo Xiaobai smiled shyly. "That's good. Uncle Ning, are you patrolling the area?"

Ning Feng nodded and frowned slightly. "Someone got killed last time, right? That's why I need to raise the security."

Mo Xiaobai recalled the picture in the newspaper Mo You was reading a few mornings ago. He nodded silently.

Ning Feng smiled, and continued, "Alright. You just came back from the hollow realm, so you should be really tried. Go back and have a rest."

"Okay, I'll head back first. Uncle Ning, see you next time."

Mo Xiaobai waved at Ning Feng and ran off.

Ning Feng and the other three security guards looked at Mo Xiaobai as he ran. One of the younger security guards was a little jealous as he said, "Leader Ning, that's Captain Mo's child, right? He entered the hollow realm at such a young age? That's amazing. He's almost going to achieve his breakthrough, right?"

"As expected of the child of Captain Mo. Captain Mo is a powerful warrior with three force points opened!"

"I heard that Captain Mo's child is very hardworking. He wakes up before dawn to start practicing, and he inherited Captain Mo's talent. It's normal that he's so powerful."

As the three security guards were discussing, Ning Feng waved his hand, and said, "Alright, let's continue patrolling."

***

When Mo Xiaobai returned home, Mo You and Mu Yuzhu were already waiting for him.

The instant he opened the door, a red shadow flashed past. Little Red dashed over and rubbed its head against his body. It used so much force he always fell.

He pushed Little Red's head and felt a little speechless. "Little Red, are you a dog? You must remember that you're a snake!"

"Si~"

Little Red started rubbing against him harder.

Mu Yuzhu smiled, and said, "You're back? Wash up and have your dinner."

After returning to his familiar home, Mo Xiaobai instantly relaxed.

Mo Xiaobai acknowledged what his mother said, and walked towards the bathroom while trying to get Little Red off him.

After Mo Xiaobai washed up and came back, Mo You asked, "How is it? Did you gain anything? This was your first time visiting the hollow realm, right?"

Mu Yuzhu turned and looked at Mo Xiaobai curiously too.
