Chapter 90: The Monitors Discussions

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was already evening when Xiao Lin returned to the dormitory. After going to the cafeteria for dinner, he met Cheng Ming and the others chatting in the lounge while on the way back to his room. After Cheng Mings sharp eyes recognized him, he called out to Xiao Lin, leaving the latter no choice but to join them in the lounge.

There were five or six individuals with Cheng Ming, the names of which Xiao Lin did not know. What he did know was that those people were acting monitors of the other classes. After their enrolment, the acting monitors gradually formed their own small circle. Xiao Lin was the only one excluded from said circle. They were all drinking tea and coffee, chatting about the monthly exam that had just ended.

The others were not as friendly toward Xiao Lin as Cheng Ming. They simply nodded politely when Xiao Lin came over and did not even bother to stand up. One of the guys suddenly asked, What grade did you get in your exam, Xiao Lin?

Before Xiao Lin could speak, Cheng Ming had patted him on the shoulder and said, Xiao Lin got Grade B, which is way better than me. Sigh, if I had known earlier, I wouldntve engaged in the duel with the wolf cavalry captain. I lost ten years and I didnt even end up killing the guy. In the end, no one else in our class managed to complete the required tasks

Cheng Ming began prattling away as soon as he had something to talk about. A ponytailed girl who was immersed in a newspaper suddenly looked up and glanced unexpectedly at Xiao Lin. She asked, Grade B. Did you beat that Norma woman?

Xiao Lin had seen her in the magic training room before and replied, Her Flame Shield was a bit tricky, but luckily we managed to capture the woman.

Cheng Ming hurriedly asked, And then what happened? What did you do with that Norma woman? We were discussing her just now and the woman seemed a bit weird.

Xiao Lin probably guessed what they were talking about. If youre talking about the last spell she wanted to use, I actually killed her before she finished chanting.

With that answer, more and more people looked up at him in surprise. A man asked, That woman lied to all of us eventually. How did you know that you were supposed to kill her?

Its not that difficult to deal with her. The Flame Shield is obviously a hindrance, but she doesnt have much defense against physical attacks. I originally thought that she would be the key to completing our optional tasks, but who knew in the end

I shouldve killed her first!

Several acting monitors joined the discussion one after another and Xiao Lin realized that the Norma woman tricked many people. Not everyone was as lucky as him to be able to use the replication skill and understand Ancient Normese. Without it, his grade might only be C at most.

Cheng Ming laughed and explained to Xiao Lin, smiling, Weve just learned about what happened to all the classes. Basically, all twelve classes arrived at the supply depot and met the Norma woman. Those in Class Three killed that woman immediately, and although Class Two won, the number of survivors was insufficient, so they failed to meet the minimum requirement of thirty percent. The other seven classes defeated her, but only one killed her. All other classes chose to hold her captive. They also bet with me just now that the ending was unavoidable, but I never expected you to be the only one among these six classes who actually managed to evade that spell at the last moment!

What spell did that Norma woman use in the end? Xiao Lin asked.

The ponytailed girl shook her head and replied. Some fire spell. I dont know the name, but its power was absolutely terrifying. From my guess, its damage rating is at least E or higher, maybe even D? Anyway, after she cast the spell, the whole cave went up in flames. None of us could get away.

Xiao Lin glanced at the acting monitors who were either regretful or ashamed. Some of them realized that they were probably the ones who were duped by that woman, and because they had not completed the mandatory tasks when they died, the highest evaluation they could get was Grade C.

As Xiao Lin expected, the monthly exam was actually to make those new students understand their identity as colonizers and conquerors. If they did not figure that out, they would most likely be tricked by the Norma woman. In fact, she had also deceived Xiao Lin, but he eventually used his SS-level talent to forcibly bring them back from deaths door.

Xiao Lins mood improved inexplicably, but he suddenly became curious. The student union president had told him that three people achieved Grade A in the monthly exam, so he enquired them about it.

Many peoples faces became quite surprised yet again. Cheng Ming coughed a few times. Youre quite well-informed. We just saw it on the forum too. Theyre from Class Three. Three of them from Class Three completed the first optional task. Im afraid theyre the only people in our entire year who got Grade A.

Xiao Lin wondered. Did they convince the Norma woman to take them into the barracks?

Cheng Mings expression turned slightly odd. No. They convinced the Norma man. You probably dont know that the man in the caravan was her lover

I know that.

Cheng Ming seemed puzzled. Oh, well, anyway, the acting monitor of Class Three persuaded this man to betray her. God knows how she did it. She even told the man to kill his lover on the spot, and after finally being driven to a dead end, the man could only help them complete the tasks.

Xiao Lin was a little speechless. The result proved to be an unexpected gambit, but the optional task of killing the wolf cavalry captain still remained incomplete. It was also proof that Class Seven was not entirely weak.

The topic did not last long and everyone was generally dissatisfied with the monthly exams. After comparing their results however, they discovered that everyone was about the same, so they reluctantly accepted it.

Why did the student union president ask for you? Cheng Ming was still concerned about Xiao Lin.

Its nothing big, but I might not be able to attend classes next month, Xiao Lin answered bluntly.

What the hell did you do? Why are they banning you from attending your classes? Cheng Ming really became anxious, believing that the student union president was banning Xiao Lin from attending classes. The other acting monitors lost interest in that topic. They either continued to drink tea or look down at their newspapers.

Xiao Lin deliberated for a moment. No, but Ill probably return to Earth maybe tomorrow or the day after.

Ah! Cheng Mings eyes widened, and he exclaimed, Youll be sent back to Earth?

His loud voice attracted the attention of many people. After realizing that Cheng Ming realized that he was bothering others, he lowered his voice considerably, though it was still loud enough that everyone in the quiet lounge could hear. It attracted the curious gazes of more and more people.

Xiao Lin smiled bitterly. Dont get me wrong. Ill be back in a month. Im just going out for some official business and I might probably go to the New World.

On that occasion, several acting monitors turned around with incredulous looks on their faces.

More and more people began to walk toward him and Xiao Lin hurriedly ran away when he saw the situation getting worse. He fled back to his room before everyone else surrounded him.
