Chapter 121: Mastering Fire, Earth, and a Bit of Lightning

Kyoto University, the playground.

"Boom-boom-boom-boom—!!!"

The massive propeller tore through the air, and the violent airflow whipped up dust that filled the sky.

A military armed helicopter landed on the lawn in the center of the playground with an extremely domineering posture.

Around the playground,

passing students all stopped in their tracks, staring at this scene with mouths agape.

"Holy crap? Is that an armed helicopter?"

"Are they crazy? This is Kyoto University! The airspace above Kyoto University is a no-fly zone! Who is so bold as to fly a military aircraft in directly?!"

"This is too arrogant. Where is the school's disciplinary team? Aren't they going to do anything?"

Under the shocked gazes of the crowd of students.

The cabin door opened.

Lin Mo and the others got off the plane one after another.

"Son, I'll be heading off first!"

Lin Tianhao stood at the cabin door, wearing sunglasses with an unlit cigar in his mouth, waving at Lin Mo.

"Mm, got it. Take it easy on the way."

Lin Mo waved goodbye.

The helicopter roared again, rose from the ground, and vanished into the horizon with extreme flair.

Only after the helicopter had completely turned into a tiny black dot did Lin Mo withdraw his gaze.

Looking at the crowd gathering around and those pointing and staring, Lin Mo helplessly sighed.

While on the plane, he had mentioned to his father that flying a helicopter directly into the school playground might be a bit inappropriate.

Who would have thought his father would just shove the cigar into his mouth, wave his big hand, and say:

"What's inappropriate about it?"

"I'm taking my son to school; it's only natural! I'd like to see anyone who dares object!"

"If anyone has an objection, let them come find me directly! I think his skin is itching!"

That bandit-like aura rushing toward him left Lin Mo completely speechless.

Fine then.

You are Lei Di; you have the final say.

"Phew..."

Just then, Han Mengqing patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief.

"Oh my god... he's finally gone..."

"Big Shot Lin Mo, your father's aura is too strong. Sitting opposite him, I felt even my breathing was wrong; I didn't dare take a deep breath."

Han Mengqing complained, then as if remembering something, clenched her small fist with a look of indignation:

"But speaking of which, those little bastards from the Ying Kingdom are too evil! They actually tried to assassinate!"

"If you ask me, Uncle Lin should just lead people and push straight over there! Sink that broken island! Let's see if they dare to make a scene again!"

Han Mengyao, standing nearby, glanced at her younger sister, reached out, and tapped her head:

"You're thinking too simply."

"Out on that sea, countless great terrors are hidden."

"The sea area is a forbidden zone that humans have yet to control to this day. Deep within the ocean dwell many legendary sea beasts."

"To rashly launch a cross-sea operation and encounter a beast tide on the sea would result in losses that cannot be estimated."

Speaking thus, Han Mengyao paused, her expression becoming somewhat more serious:

"Moreover, the Ying Kingdom is not as weak as imagined; they also have top-tier experts. To rashly cross the sea over there, there is not only the threat of great terrors on the sea surface, but even upon reaching their territory, we would be fighting on their home ground. The price we would have to pay is too great."

After hearing this, Han Mengqing nodded, half-understanding:

"So that's how it is... the sea is actually that dangerous..."

But immediately, she snorted unwillingly:

"Then does that mean we just let it go?"

"Of course we can't just let it go."

Lin Mo took up the conversation. "We can't cross the sea, but can't we meet them in the Ten Thousand Nations Battlefield?"

"Since they want to play, then let's play with them properly in the battlefield."

Han Mengqing's eyes lit up, and she waved her fist:

"Right! Beat them so badly they run away crying in the battlefield! Let them know why the flowers are so red!"

"That is a must."

Lin Mo smiled.

Just then.

【'Fireball Technique' rolled around crazily: Hungry hungry hungry! Food food food! I want to eat 'Braised Fiery Wild Ox Tendons'!】

【'Earth Shield Technique' also started rolling around: Master Master! I'm hungry too! I want to eat dirt!】

Lin Mo's corner of the mouth twitched.

These big shots only know how to eat right after a fight.

He soothed them in his mind:

"Got it, got it, going to eat right now, stop making noise."

Lin Mo turned to look at the three women:

"Um, I'm heading to the cafeteria to grab a meal. What about you guys?"

"I'm going too, I'm going too!"

Han Mengqing was the first to express agreement.

Han Mengyao and Chu Lingxuan also nodded; after all that trouble along the way, everyone was indeed a bit hungry.

The four of them walked toward the direction of the Long Yuan Ban cafeteria.

Not far away, on the bleachers of the playground.

Three students were watching the backs of Lin Mo and his group.

Standing in the middle was a boy with a crew cut and sharp eyes; he was the leader of the second-year ordinary students at Jing University, Shen Jun.

On the left was that long-haired senior sister who had previously been responsible for welcoming new students, Gu Qingge.

On the right was a tall, thin boy with an air of arrogance on his face, named Zhou Kai.

"Hmph, what an enormous display."

Zhou Kai leaned against the railing, his tone full of disdain:

"Flying a helicopter into the school playground? Are the current Long Xu Bans so arrogant? Do they really think Jing University is their own private backyard?"

Gu Qingge chuckled lightly, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear:

"Shen Jun, that leading boy is Lin Mo, the number one of this year's Long Xu Ban."

"The three girls beside him are Han Mengyao, number three; Chu Lingxuan, number four; and Han Mengqing, number fifteen."

"So he is the number one, Lin Mo?"

Shen Jun narrowed his eyes, his fingers lightly tapping the railing.

Gu Qingge watched Lin Mo and the others' retreating figures and spoke:

"Judging by their direction, they're probably heading to the cafeteria."

Shen Jun adjusted his collar and said calmly:

"That's perfect; I'm hungry too."

"Let's go, let's get to know this 'number one'. After all, the new student trial is coming soon; as representatives of the senior students, we must gauge their strength."

Saying this, Shen Jun strode toward the direction of the cafeteria.

Zhou Kai and Gu Qingge exchanged a glance and followed.

Long Yuan Ban Cafeteria.

This is the most luxurious cafeteria at Jing University.

Rather than a cafeteria, it is more like a five-star high-end restaurant.

Lin Mo and the other four found a seat by the window.

Looking at the table full of dishes, even Han Mengyao, who was used to the ways of the world, couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.

"This... this is too lavish, isn't it?"

"This meal... must cost quite a bit, right?"

Chu Lingxuan said in a low voice.

"Who cares? It's free anyway! It's a Long Xu Ban privilege!"

Han Mengqing didn't care at all, picked up her chopsticks, and started eating.

In Lin Mo's mind, the skills had all gone crazy.

【Fireball Roared: That chicken! That fire-breathing chicken! Shove it in your mouth! Quick, quick, quick!】

【Earth Shield Salivated: That pangolin looks so delicious... Master, hurry up, hurry up!】

【Lightning Strike: That eel... isn't bad either.】

Lin Mo was torn between laughter and tears.

He picked up a piece of Magma Chicken with his chopsticks and was just about to put it in his mouth.

"Seniors and juniors, do you mind if we share a table?"

A voice sounded nearby.

Lin Mo paused his movement and looked up.

He saw three people wearing ordinary class uniforms walking over with trays.

Shen Jun wore a proper smile on his face.

Gu Qingge and Zhou Kai followed silently behind.

Although they were second-year seniors, in front of this group of Long Xu Bans, the "privileged class," they dared not act rashly.

Lin Mo swallowed the chicken in his mouth and pointed to the dozens of empty tables around them.

"There are plenty of seats here; do we really have to share a table?"

The smile on Shen Jun's face stiffened slightly.

This guy really doesn't give anyone any face.

But he didn't dare to flare up, so he could only speak even more politely:

"Hehe, it's more lively eating with more people, and we also wanted to come and admire the style of this year's Long Xu Ban."

Saying this, he carefully pulled out a chair and sat down.

Gu Qingge and Zhou Kai also sat down, not daring to get too close.

Seeing this, Lin Mo didn't say anything more.

After all, the attitude was quite good; you never hit a smiling face.

Shen Jun smiled and introduced himself:

"Hello, I'm Shen Jun from the regular sophomore class, also the representative of the sophomore seniors. These two are Gu Qingge and Zhou Kai."

"Senior Shen, pleased to meet you."

Lin Mo nodded, politely replied, then continued burying his head in his food.

No choice—the gluttons in his head were urging him too urgently.

The other three girls also nodded slightly in greeting.

Shen Jun looked at Lin Mo and said:

"Junior Lin, I heard you're this year's Long Xu Ban top-ranked, I've long admired your reputation."

"Mm."

Lin Mo's mouth was stuffed with meat, he answered unclearly.

"The Mage class is the core of any team."

Shen Jun smiled, pointed at the dish on Lin Mo's plate, "I see Junior Lin is eating this Lava Chicken, the fire element is extremely strong, looks like you're fire-type, right?"

"Right, fire-type."

Lin Mo nodded.

"Looks like Junior Lin's mastery of fire-type must be at the pinnacle."

Shen Jun continued probing, his tone carrying a hint of flattery, "But if you only knew fire-type, you probably couldn't have taken Long Xu Ban's top rank either. Junior Lin should know some others, right?"

Lin Mo put down his chopsticks and took a sip of his drink.

He looked at Shen Jun, understanding perfectly well in his heart.

This guy was here to probe for the upcoming freshman trial.

But Lin Mo didn't care.

Go ahead and probe—in the face of absolute strength, everything is futile.

"Mm, also know a bit of earth-type."

Lin Mo said frankly.

"Oh? A dual-type mage?"

A flash of surprise crossed Shen Jun's eyes, then he sighed in admiration, "Fire and earth dual cultivation, offense and defense combined, truly impressive. Then besides fire and earth, anything else?"

Lin Mo thought for a moment, then pointed at the Thunder Eel on his plate:

"Also know a bit of lightning-type."

"……"
