Killing Field Mice First, Good Things Come Quickly

Whoosh—

Countless figures charged forward rapidly.

In just a short while, dozens of students had gathered at the farm entrance.

As the last group returned, Principal Zhang rubbed his shiny head.

"Children, you all performed very well in today's practical combat..."

A lengthy half-hour speech.

Su Ye couldn't help but yawn.

Though he hadn't felt tired after staying up all night, he felt a bit sleepy now.

Fortunately, Principal Zhang's speech was reaching its final segment.

"During this training session, one group performed exceptionally well. They ranked first on the monster kill leaderboard with a record of 512 field mice killed!"

Whoosh—

Everyone in the elite class couldn't help but look in one direction.

"They are... Su Ye, Xiao Qiyue, Mu Wanrou, Zhang Xuan, and Xia Zhiqiu's team!"

That's right.

In the final moments.

Su Ye and the others had lured a dozen field mice into Shangguan Lin's group's area and successfully killed them.

Just at the very end of the twenty-four hours, they surpassed Meng Li's team by two.

Under the admiring gazes of everyone, Su Ye and the other four walked forward, ready to receive their well-deserved rewards.

As they passed a team, Meng Li, carrying a heavy iron pillar, stared intently at Su Ye with his bell-like eyes.

"Su Ye, I look forward to a real battle with you!"

"There will be opportunities."

This time, Su Ye's group killed a total of 512 field mice.

Of these, Su Ye contributed 312.

At 300 yuan each, that was nearly a hundred thousand yuan.

In addition, the school provided a resource credit of 50,000, which could be exchanged for anything in the school's resource library.

However...

Su Ye glanced at the money in his hand and, after some thought, handed it over to Zhang Xuan.

"Su Ye, what are you doing?"

"We were able to get first place this time thanks to the Luoluo beast meat you got. That meat might not be much to you, but we can't let you be the only one who lost out."

Zhang Xuan felt touched.

He really didn't care about the hundred thousand or so yuan.

But Su Ye's action clearly showed he didn't see him as a fool.

This made Zhang Xuan look up to Su Ye.

After all, he had investigated Su Ye's background and knew his family wasn't well-off. This hundred thousand yuan wasn't a small sum for Su Ye.

"This money..."

"You should keep this money."

Xia Zhiqiu also placed his cash reward into Zhang Xuan's hand.

"Three to four thousand yuan per jin of Luoluo beast meat. We used almost five jin this time. Good heavens... we killed over five hundred mice, and it barely covered the cost of the Luoluo beast meat. It's like we worked for free today!"

Xiao Qiyue and Mu Wanrou also gave their cash rewards to Zhang Xuan.

"But we still got cash rewards from the school, so we didn't lose out."

"Alright, then I'll accept this money. My treat tonight at Golden Moon Seafood Restaurant!"

Zhang Xuan laughed heartily.

Xia Zhiqiu's eyes lit up immediately.

"Golden Moon Seafood Restaurant? That's the best seafood restaurant in Fangyuan City! Then we won't be polite! We'll definitely feast on you, Mr. Moneybags, tonight!"

Zhang Xuan had to pay for the Luoluo beast meat, but he also had to eat the meal treated by the rich guy!

Since many students in the elite class had stayed up late grinding the previous night, Principal Zhang gave everyone a holiday after distributing the rewards, allowing them to arrange their time freely.

Zhang Xuan immediately called his butler to come pick them up.

"Su Ye, I'll give you a ride back."

It was still some distance to Fangyuan City, and public transportation was inconvenient.

Zhang Xuan proactively invited Su Ye to share a ride.

Su Ye: ...

Su Ye was still heartbroken.

Su Ye had been generous when he paid.

But after paying, his heartache hadn't subsided until now.

Originally, with that more than 110,000, half of the 200,000 needed for his supernatural ability to evolve had been covered. He only needed to earn another 80,000 to 90,000.

But now...

Just as Su Ye appeared calm on the surface but was in agony inside...

A phone call came.

Zhang Baichuan: "Su Ye, hurry to the Patrol Bureau, something good has happened!"

Half an hour later.

Zhang Xuan's luxurious Ferghana horse carriage stopped at the entrance of the Patrol Bureau.

"Su Ye, see you at Golden Moon Seafood Restaurant tonight!"

"Okay."

Su Ye waved his hand and strode into the Patrol Bureau.

The first-floor lobby of the Patrol Bureau was bustling with people. Su Ye saw many patrol officers looking anxious, as well as crying middle-aged women and grieving uncles.

He listened in slightly and gathered that another young woman had been murdered on her way home from work last night.

It was very likely the work of the serial killer from before.

Su Ye shook his head.

It seemed he'd have to remind Liu Ruxin to try not to go out at night.

And to better protect his family... he had to keep getting stronger!

"Ding."

The elevator doors opened.

A boy of about eighteen or nineteen walked out.

The moment they brushed past each other, Su Ye's eyes flickered.

He actually felt a sense of pressure from the other person.

This feeling was even stronger than the one he felt from Meng Li.

He was a master.

And after Su Ye entered the elevator and closed the doors...

The boy also slowly stopped in his tracks.

"That person just now... was very strong."

"I've never seen him before. Could he be Meng Li, the number one in martial arts at Second High School?"

"Su Ye, you're finally here! Hahaha!"

Zhang Baichuan looked at Su Ye as if he were a peerless treasure.
