Chapter 258

As for whether the "item most suitable for him" that Yun Shen opened from the Ultimate Campaign treasure chest could be a technique compatible with the 【Slender Gold Script】, or even if he had happened to open the 【Nongfang Thousand-Character Classic】 technique...

The probability of the former was extremely low.

The latter was impossible—absolutely impossible.

【Slender Gold Script】 is an Shi Shi-grade skill book.

【Farming Thousand-Character Classic】 is an Epic-grade technique.

In their eyes, Yun Shen had entered the third-difficulty Ultimate Campaign. The items opened from the treasure chest were definitely Legendary grade; the tier would absolutely not be low, and at the very least, it wouldn't be a technique specifically compatible with 【Slender Gold Script】.

Although thinking this way was a bit offensive to the ancestor Zhao Ji, the tier of the 【Slender Gold Script】 skill was indeed not high enough; it was too low.

Under the gaze of the two young ladies—one shocked and one excited—Yun Shen had no choice but to admit it.

"Ah... yes, yes, I deduced the Slender Gold Script to the Legendary grade."

Yun Shen thought about it carefully and felt that if he denied it, it would be treating others too much like fools.

He was also quite helpless. At the time, he had used an affix to directly sublimate the 【Slender Gold Script】 skill book into a Legendary skill. How was he to know that Shi Shi skills didn't have this effect at all and couldn't use the 'One-Character Art'?

Well, that was great. A simple sparring match, and he had accidentally exposed the secret that he had "deduced" the 【Slender Gold Script】 to Legendary quality.

"Hmph, I will definitely get my revenge for today's loss. I'll have you know, what I'm best at is actually the red-tassel spear, not the sword."

Zhu Ying, who had a bit of 'chuunibyou,' felt very stifled. If she had lost after a hearty battle, she wouldn't feel this uncomfortable, but being suppressed to the ground so easily was just too embarrassing.

"Sigh, I already said, I don't want to bully girls."

Yun Shen spread his hands helplessly. If he could, he just wanted to develop quietly and didn't want to act so high-profile so soon.

As for whether Zhu Ying was better at the sword or the spear, it didn't matter. He had only agreed to one fight anyway; he would just refuse next time.

After accepting her defeat, Zhu Ying asked, "Are you free tonight? If you have nothing else to do, come home with me. If there are no accidents, I can arrange it for you tonight, or tomorrow at the latest."

"So fast?"

Yun Shen had fought a high-profile match with Zhu Ying precisely so he could cut the line to observe the Yongle Canon, right?

Naturally, the sooner the better.

He just didn't know what status Zhu Ying held in the Wu Ming Zhu family, and whether arbitrarily changing the order of the observation list would cause any negative impact.

"I don't have anything going on, so going with you is fine, I just don't know if it's convenient."

An ordinary person would definitely go home at this time and throw a grand banquet to show off to friends and family.

But Yun Shen had been an orphan since he was a child, raised on the welfare of the Dragon Kingdom, and it seemed there was no one he could share this joy with.

As for posting on social media or something, Yun Shen thought about it and decided against it. He didn't want to make it known to everyone; being steady and secure was what mattered.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. It's just a quota, it's no big deal."

Zhu Ying didn't know if she had seen through Yun Shen's concerns, but she patted her chest directly, implying that he was under her protection.

"Big Brother Yun, Sister Ying, let's go over there to register our information."

Zhao Yunqin pointed to an area near the playground podium, where several long queues had already formed, each separated by barrier belts.

"Oh right, we haven't registered yet. Let's go."

Zhu Ying ignored the surrounding gazes and walked straight toward the direction of the queues.

Yun Shen and Zhao Yunqin followed slowly.

Because many lords had died in the Myriad Races Battlefield and never returned, everyone who successfully exited the Myriad Races Battlefield alive, regardless of whether they passed the Newcomer Trial, had to register. This was to use the process of elimination to screen out the list of deceased newcomer lords and inform their families.

After everyone completed their information registration, two lists would be compiled: a list of lords and a list of the fallen, which would be published on the school's official website.

At this moment, many people were lingering outside Tianxing High School, but they were intercepted and couldn't get in.

Among them were family members of students who hadn't returned home yet, as well as angel investors who had invested in the students.

No one wanted to see their family members or investment targets on the list of the fallen. Once the two lists were released, there would surely be weeping and joy everywhere outside, with sadness and happiness reflecting each other in extreme chaos.

Every year at this time, the number of patients in hospitals would surge; many would faint after seeing the bad news, and there were even those who went insane.

The three of them were not in a hurry and left together. Their territory defenses were very sound, and there wouldn't be any lapses in the short term even if the lords were not sitting in their territories.

After the Newcomer Trial ended, the daily lives of the lords wouldn't need to be so tense and oppressive, as there was no longer a daily wave of monster tides.

However, because a Human Clan Taboo had appeared this year, it was still relatively easy for high-quality wild monsters to spawn around the territories.

Therefore, some people just wanted to finish their information registration quickly and buy resources as soon as possible to bring back to the Myriad Races Battlefield to accelerate the development of their territories and improve their safety coefficients.

Just then, a voice full of vigor reached Yun Shen's ears.

"Young friend Yun Shen, please stay your step. This Daoist sees that you have already caught a glimpse of the Yin-Yang path; why not join my Wudang?"
