Chapter 87: Chapter 85: Assistant Han, Victim of Public Opinion_1

The morning sunlight, bright and penetrating.

A thread of pale gold light brushed past Lord Han’s temples along with the morning breeze.

In this fleeting moment, his naturally curly hair, which is dark and deep, seemed to be even more profound than the sea.

Those pair of eyes, as clear as the sky, seemingly became even more mysterious.

At one corner of the training base, the stupefied students began to regain their composure one by one.

The silence, so deep that even time seemed to stop and reminiscent of the early spring snow melting in the bright sun, rapidly melted and evaporated.

"He’s really... amazing!"

"Yeah yeah! He didn’t even need to summon his Contracted Spirit Fond Spirit. With just a single dagger, he ended the fight with one stroke... That’s so cool!"

Zou Lan’s mouth hung open widely, seemingly dumbfounded by the scene before her.

Just a few minutes ago, she was still immersed in the difficulty of hunting, trying to motivate herself and build a mental foundation.

The unintentionally-to-walk-by black-clad assistant instructor had turned the tables by simply killing a rabbit in less than a minute. The visual impact... was too shocking!

"Did the Red-eye meat-eating rabbit just die before I could react?"

"Didn’t Master Tong just tell us that this is a wild beast with strong vitality? How did it just die from a single blow? I don’t understand..."

Chen Guangtao scratched his head, his round eyes full of confusion.

He looked around, trying to find someone who could answer his questions.

But his classmates were all too excited to care for themselves, no one was paying attention to him.

"One minute! Give me all the information about this assistant instructor in one minute!"

"Especially---Does he lack any followers on his strong thighs? I’m just over a hundred and eighty pounds, so I’m likely to go flying!"

"Get out! If you don’t lose weight, even when your Fond Spirit achieves Clay Body, it won’t be able to carry you! You want to fight with us for his attention? Go play with your clay!"

...

Amidst the admiration and astonishment, were the students’ endless banter.

Lord Han’s ears suddenly filled with noise.

He didn’t need to look back to feel the gazes accumulating on him—the gazes gradually changing from indifferent, at most mixed with a hint of curiosity, to those filled with longing, as if they couldn’t wait to rush before him and dig up hundreds of questions.

"No doubt about it, I have to bow to Master Han!"

Piao Chenlong shook his head and sighed three times.

In the end, he looked at his classmates, boasting with pride, saying:

"See, I didn’t lie to you!"

"If not for Master Han two days ago, my Porky would probably have been poisoned to death!"

"Now it is undeniably clear that the medical skills are just a small part of his personal abilities!"

"He can kill a red-eyed meat-eating rabbit with a single stroke, I suspect his contracted spirit is incredibly powerful!"

"As the saying goes,’use a sledgehammer to crack a nut.’ If he summons his Contracted spirit, he might be the most powerful among the seven assistant instructors. Even a group attack from the other six might not necessarily win him!"

"Is he really that powerful?"

Chen Gui widened his eyes, in a little disbelief.

If he was that powerful, he would have become a formal instructor already, there would be no need to wait for the third step.

"Eh, you don’t understand, Master Han is still young!"

"Just let him accumulate some more, let him mature a little, won’t the formal instructor status be within his grasp?"

Piao Chenlong was laid back, his face bearing an expression of "Listen to me, I am right."

Chen Gui furrowed his eyebrows in deep thought for a few seconds, then he suddenly saw the light, and said with a face full of admiration:

"What you have said makes sense!"

"With Assistant Han’s position, this red-eyed meat-eating rabbit of clay illusion extraction has average nutritional value, and is not even worthy of his attention."

"Nevertheless, he still came out and killed a rabbit in front of us."

"Among the seven assistant instructors, he is the only one who came forward, what does this indicate?"

"What does it indicate?"

Piao Chenlong did not expect this mediocre looking brother to have such meticulous thinking.

This time, his attention got diverted, and he perked up his ears, asking curiously.

"It means that Assistant Han is a good person!" exclaimed Chen Gui:

"Other assistant instructors or instructors just let us explore on our own, which makes sense too."

"But Assistant Han, he actively demonstrated it for us!"

"Though, we are not capable enough to replicate his operation."

"But this casual stroke of his was just too impressive!"

"While everyone is admiring Assistant Han, subconsciously, we all long for a higher level. Have you not noticed that our initial panic and discomfort have faded?"

"Without a doubt, all credit to Assistant Han! Maybe he thought this might help us, so he came out and killed the weakest rabbit. His heart must be exceptionally kind and gentle. That feeling of being guided subconsciously, it’s really heartwarming!"

"What you said..."

"... Makes sense indeed!!"

Piao Chenlong was taken aback, unable to resist patting Fat Tiger’s head while saying excitedly:

"Fat tiger! Did you hear that? Master Han is paving the way for us!"

"Let’s go too to kill the rabbits! Let’s put up a good show! We can’t let him make effort for nothing!"

"Grunt~~ Grunt~~"

Porky was shaking its pigtail, with small steps following its master towards the cage.

...

"Ridiculous, am I supposed to have a character setup just for killing a rabbit?"

"And praising me as kind, gentle .... Ugh! That gives me goosebumps!"

Ye Hanjun, with his back to the crowd, twitched corners of his mouth slightly.

A stumble underfoot, and he nearly tripped over.

These students are beyond salvation, who taught them? Where are their parents!

Especially this Piao Chenlong, if it wasn’t for him starting all this, how could the reputation of a dignified Ye Clan descendant become this?

Ye Hanjun shivered from the coldness of anger, looked down at the Red-eye meat-eating rabbit in his hand, this clay-based illusion rabbit alone took almost eighty to ninety percent of his strength just to hold up.

Talking about the undefeated amongst seven assistant teachers...

The key point is, some of these students actually believed it, and it’s not just one or two...

At least ten people believe that his Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits must be a particularly rare and brutal species, that’s why he could so casually, with one hand and a dagger, easily slaughter the ferocious Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit.

The oppressed Ye Hanjun, feeling extreme dismay, hurriedly took the rabbit towards the nearby wild cooking area.

However, not knowing whether to be relieved or pleased, the students’ group messed up, but the assistant teachers and mentors have all gone according to expectations.

"This cutting... splendid!"

Wei Hongying, standing on the branch, was still not completely awake from the trance, and murmured:

"The Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit’s brain has a crystal core, containing Soul Power."

"This information is not particularly rare, Patron who often battles in the field will know about it sooner or later."

"But... this crystal core is too small and is in the slick and soft brain tissue..."

"Every time the Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit exerts force, the crystal core also has a slight swing due to the change of gravity; it is not located at the absolute center..."

"Based on this concept, hunting the Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit, no one would specifically aim at this weakness and waste time. Sever the neck, pierce the heart, crush the skull... There are countless ways to kill, no need to minutely focus on this direction..." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"How on earth did Master Han do it?"

Wei Hongying murmured, even daring not to use the word "luck" as an excuse.

If it happened all of a sudden that would be fine, but Ye Hanjun leisurely went over, and with a swift knife, he finished off the rabbit.

Linking a series of situations before and after together, only those with an insane mind would think he had done this through luck.

"This makes no sense..."

Tian Sai on another branch was silent, as if his mouth was sealed off.

It took him a while to speak uneasily. His eyes, which should have been sharp and prominent, were now filled with confusion.

How come he looks so proficient despite being just a first stage mentor?

Could it be the dagger? Don’t exclude that possibility...

Quality weapons indeed have a special targeting effect, if relied upon, such an operation might be possible...

Tian Sai brainwashed himself repeatedly, but he still found that he couldn’t convince himself.

Ye Hanjun’s performance didn’t once go according to his prediction. To attribute the reason to external things seemed too far-fetched.

"Hahahaha, my beloved ones seem to be saved!"

Without a doubt, Lin Qingyun was the most unique among the six assistant teachers.

His focus always stayed on the fact that Han was weak, meaning that more of the insects he had painstakingly raised, were bound to die.

Now perceiving that his judgement was wrong, Han seems not to be as weak as he imagined, there’s some foundation to him.

Lin Qingyun, with his large dark circles, actually laughed heartlessly.

"Hahahaha, relieved, I feel so relieved!"

"My darlings, you guys don’t need to worry, consider this time as an outing, I will also find some new friends for you guys. Let’s strive together to have three, four, five offspring..."

...

"Master Tong, what do you think?"

Zhi Zhengqing walked to Dong Xuan’s side, his bright eyes still fixated on Ye Hanjun’s back.

"Misjudged."

Dong Xuan shook his head slightly. His face, devoid of any smile, had the frosty white eyebrows tightly knitted.

Laymen watch for fun while the professionals spot the tracks.

The students didn’t recognise Hanjun’s stage, only seeing him as an effective assistant teacher.

While this performance was astounding, it didn’t seem to exceed the threshold of limits.

However, both Dong Xuan and Zhi Zhengqing were at the Patron stage three.

The two’s combined experience had already exceeded two hundred years.

What wind and rain had they not seen in these years?

However, this Han was a bit too odd. Their cognition was somewhat inadequate.

Who would have thought that such a weak body could accurately pierce fatal points of the Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit with just one dagger?

If it went out, who would believe it, but it happened just like that...

After pondering, Dong Xuan sighed:

"Maybe getting old, the back wave drives the front wave, the day has finally arrived."

"Old Jiang made an exception to accept him as an assistant teacher, there must be a reason. Isn’t his current performance the best proof?"

"Oh, that’s true."

Zhi Zhengqing also sighed with some emotion, looked up at the sky to watch the floating white clouds, everything seemed calm and fine. He said to himself:

"Some things succeed precisely because they are different from others."

"Do you think there’s a chance that the Grey Flash Desert Witch could actually mutate under his hands?"

"Haha, if I could see that in my lifetime, that wouldn’t be too bad~"

Dong Xuan revealed a trace of a smile, his earlier sombreness dissipating.
