Chapter 50

That's right!

The person who protects them during night patrols is the Discipline Office director, Teacher Yu.

At this moment, Teacher Yu did not hide his information.

Luo Chenyu could clearly see his strength.

【Yu Zhilin】

【Occupation: Ba Dao】

【Level: LV. 72】

【Strength: Tier 5】

Teacher Yu was a Tier 5 powerhouse—and a special occupation of Xuanlong Nation, Ba Dao!

With such strength, he could easily rank among the top in Longshan City, yet he was stuck as Discipline Office director at Longshan No. 1 High School…

"Traffic jam…"

Yu Zhilin's face dropped instantly—bullshit, it's already eleven at night, where's the traffic?

But then he remembered Luo Chenyu and Facing Ye Xingtong's rookie dungeon scores.

He had nothing more to say.

Just this one achievement, bringing glory to the school, was enough.

His gaze remained fixed on Luo Chenyu—looks can be deceiving; this kid had surprised him far too much.

It nearly shattered his worldview.

SSSS rating? He'd never even heard of such a thing!

After a moment of silence, Yu Zhilin spoke slowly: "Let's go—the place isn't close."

"Got it!"

Luo Chenyu and Facing Ye Xingtong exchanged a glance and hurried to follow Yu Zhilin.

Night travel was treacherous.

Luo Chenyu truly understood this now.

Watching Yu Zhilin slice a black demonic filth in two with a single slash, he was almost numb.

How long had they been out?

They'd already faced over a dozen waves of demonic filth and ferocious beasts.

Fortunately, the even more ferocious Yu Zhilin was with them—otherwise the outcome would've been unthinkable.

They pressed forward.

Finally, over an hour later,

they reached the edge of a forest. "Wait here!"

Yu Zhilin dropped those words and charged into the forest without hesitation.

Soon, flashes of blade light appeared, accompanied by the ringing of steel.

This continued for nearly a minute.

"You can come in now!"

In the dark forest, the ground was littered with shattered corpses—anyone timid would dare not enter.

Fortunately, Luo Chenyu and Facing Ye Xingtong weren't ordinary people.

"Ahead is the location of the Tier 1 Special Secret Realm—it was discovered this morning and has been secured by the Education Bureau."

"This is a Nascent Secret Realm—it's highly likely to spawn a Super Tier monster. If you encounter one, evacuate immediately and seek a safe area to explore."

As he advanced, Yu Zhilin kept explaining.

"Also, there are many monsters inside the Secret Realm—don't be reckless. Especially you, Luo Chenyu—you're a tank, you must protect Facing Ye Xingtong!"

Then he handed a communicator to Facing Ye Xingtong.

"Once you're out, use the mana phone to contact me—I'll be nearby, unless something unexpected happens."

Luo Chenyu: "..."

That flag was way too hasty!

Not long after,

the group arrived at a secluded mountain ravine. Beyond the rocks, fifteen meters away, a bronze glow shone brightly in the night.

"Go on—there's the Secret Realm!"

"Teacher Yu, take care!"

Throughout the journey, Luo Chenyu's opinion of the Discipline Office director—who had mocked him—changed drastically.

He was a true teacher.

And also a powerful Ba Dao!

"Ding, Tier 1 Special Secret Realm 【You'an Riverbank】 detected. This Secret Realm has high difficulty. Enter?"

"Confirm!"

Their figures vanished into the forest, and the glow at the Secret Realm's entrance faded away.

But when Luo Chenyu and Facing Ye Xingtong reappeared,

they were inside a forest, surrounded by grotesque, twisted trees that looked deeply eerie under the dark night.

Fortunately, a blood-red moon hung in the sky, allowing them to make out their surroundings.

At this moment,

information about the Special Secret Realm 【You'an Riverbank】 appeared before them.

【Dark Riverbank】

Secret Realm Difficulty: Tier 1, Special Difficulty

Clear Requirement: Slay the Dark Skeleton King (0/1) or slay 3,000 Dark Skeletons (0/3,000)

Current Party: Luo Chenyu (Level 5, Defense Warrior), Facing Ye Xingtong (Level 3, Blazing Flame Mage)

Experience Bonus: Two-person party 50%, Nascent Secret Realm 100%

……

"Phew!" Facing Ye Xingtong let out a breath, her cool expression instantly vanishing as a brilliant smile spread across her face.

"Mute gourd, big sis will carry you… huh, what kind of skill is this?"

A few level-up chimes rang in Facing Ye Xingtong's ears.

"Ding, your teammate has applied a damage-absorbing shield to you, lasting 45 seconds!"

"Ding, you have gained 'Frenzied State' — while the shield persists, you receive a 50% damage boost!"

"Ding, you have gained 'Taunt Aura' — while the shield persists, you gain the ability to taunt!"

In an instant, the smile that had just appeared on his face froze, his whole face filling with shock.

Could such an outrageous skill really belong to a Level 5 Defense Warrior?

She herself was an S-rank hidden class, and even her starting skills weren't this broken!
