Power: Tier 1

……

The four core attributes seem very high, almost approaching 【Deep Messenger·Ek】.

But after seeing these stats, Luo Chenyu felt no concern—they couldn't break his shield at all!

"Quiet one, hold it off, sister's gonna test her skill!"

Ye Xingtong's words made Luo Chenyu hesitate for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Alright, I'm counting on you!"

He wanted to see the power of an S-rank hidden class: the Rage Mage.

The next moment.

Luo Chenyu surged forward.

His steel sword slashed hard at the Dark Skeleton's forehead.

Clang!

The steel sword was blocked by the Dark Skeleton's great axe, producing a shrill metallic screech.

Missing with the sword, Luo Chenyu kicked hard at the Dark Skeleton's abdomen.

Boom!

The Dark Skeleton, caught off guard, was kicked flying.

Its HP bar dropped slightly.

-78!

The damage was low, but Luo Chenyu was pleased—his normal attack had finally landed.

Just as Luo Chenyu, still eager, prepared to strike again—

A massive fireball shot past him, blasting the rising Dark Skeleton into the air, sparks exploding everywhere.

-576!

The huge damage number floated up; the Dark Skeleton's soul flame instantly extinguished.

"Ding! Your party has slain the Level 9 Hard Monster 【Dark Skeleton·Great Axe Warrior】. You gain 138 XP, Secret Realm progress +1!"

Is this the power of an S-rank hidden class?

So strong!

Luo Chenyu's eyes showed envy.

"Ugh~" Ye Xingtong's face was filled with frustration, "My stats are too high—I can't one-shot it!"

Luo Chenyu: "..."

The thing others envied—this girl was actually upset about it.

Truly, the full belly knows not the hunger of the starving.

But... this XP was incredibly generous!

"Little Ye, your level's too low—let big brother handle it!"

With such generous XP, Luo Chenyu didn't want to waste time.

"Pfft, disrespectful—I'm three days older than you, I'm the elder sister, and... call me Little Tongtong!"

Ye Xingtong glared at Luo Chenyu.

"..."

Luo Chenyu was momentarily speechless—his soul was a twenty-five-year-old straight male, but his physical body was indeed three days younger than Ye Xingtong.

"Brother Chenyu, sister's waiting for you to show your divine power!"

Ye Xingtong flashed a sultry smile, looking alluring.

The cold, aloof campus beauty?

Indeed, people always have two sides.

He said nothing more, striding confidently through the dark monster forest.

After a few steps, a "tap-tap-tap" sound came from the trees.

Seven Dark Skeletons sprinted out of the darkness, each wielding identical great axes, shrieking shrilly.

"Little... Tongtong, watch closely—big brother'll show you what real damage looks like!"

Ye Xingtong: "..."

A tank telling a berserk fire mage about damage output?

The next second!

"Hiss!"

What did she see?

In an instant, Luo Chenyu's shield flickered, a hidden, unfathomable energy flashed away—and the seven Dark Skeletons turned to dust.

The terrifying damage number left her stunned.

"5... 5000?!!"

Was this damage from a Level 5 tank?

You call this a tank?

Such a violent skill—no incantation, no motion needed...

Even after the shield vanished, she heard the prompt for the shield refreshing again.

Facing Ye Xingtong was numb.

No wonder this guy got an SSSS rating—his shield can explode, it's too brutal.

Luo Chenyu smiled slightly, reached out, and picked up the loot before him. "Standard procedure. It's your luck that's insane—just a few monsters, and you already got an item!"

Then, Luo Chenyu handed the equipment in his hand to Ye Xingtong beside him.

A Level 5, magic-type E Tier bracer, its stats far higher than those bought from the Longshan Trading Market.

Most importantly, it had one Gao Jie attribute: Spell Penetration +1%!

The most needed attribute for magic damage dealers!

"Keep going!"

Luo Chenyu looked eagerly toward the dark depths of the monster grove. "Don't get too far from me!"

Having seen the experience from the Dark Skeletons, he decided to get back to work.

Drive!

Ye Xingtong nodded mechanically, still unable to process Luo Chenyu's explosive performance.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

One after another, the "fleet" vanished, and Ye Xingtong's body glowed with a soft Bai Guang.

She leveled up—from the abundant experience!

Reached Level 4!

Just one more level, and she would shed the "newbie" label, beginning to reveal her class traits.

Along the way.

Ye Xingtong had shifted from numbness to excitement.

Being a lazy fish is fine—as long as only Luo Chenyu sees it, she doesn't care!

"Yu-gege, you're amazing!"

Deep night, quiet, deep in the small forest.

When the two stepped out of the small forest, more than an hour had passed.

A blood-red river appeared before them.

Strangely, the crimson river surged violently, yet emitted not a single sound.

Roar!!

As she puzzled, a terrifying roar echoed across the silent riverbank.
