Chapter 216: Don

Long Country, Jingdu University.

Team Fuben Center.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the Team Fuben Center had reached an unprecedented peak, even more lively than the New Year.

"Holy shit holy shit holy shit!!!"

"59 seconds?! Did I go blind?!"

"Insane! The world's gone insane!"

"Under one minute! This is a Hell-level team Fuben! Did the Big Devil just teleport straight onto the boss's face and start slashing?!"

"What the hell, back in my day, my team spent ten minutes clearing the first wave of ghouls—I'd barely landed a few swings when the Big Devil's team already cleared it?!"

Hum—!!!

Just as everyone descended into wild celebration.

Lin Mo led Ye Kong and the rest of the Long Xu Ban out of the rift.

All eyes fell upon Lin Mo.

No words. No chants.

Clap clap clap—!!

Everyone spontaneously began to applaud.

The applause roared, echoing for a long time within the Team Fuben Center…

This was the highest tribute to an absolute powerhouse!

At the front of the crowd.

Principal Guhe, Xu Wenchang, and Han Xue hurried forward.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Principal Guhe's face flushed crimson with excitement.

He even pinched his own thigh hard.

"Ouch… Not a dream!"

Principal Guhe sucked in a sharp breath, yet grinned like a child.

"I've lived half a century, and today I've finally seen true greatness."

"Fifty-nine seconds…"

"This is the first time in human history that a team Fuben has been cleared under one minute…"

Xu Wenchang also stood by, continually marveling:

"Lin Mo, Lin Mo, you kid, you keep shattering my worldview again and again…"

Han Xue looked at Lin Mo and, for the first time ever, smiled.

"Lin Mo, well done."

"In the past, I led Long Xu Ban and crushed the prodigies of every nation."

"Everyone thought that was the most glorious moment for Long Country in recent times."

"But now, it's clear everyone was wrong."

Han Xue shook her head gently.

"This year, with you here, they probably won't even dare to look our Long Country in the eye."

"As your teacher… I am proud of you."

Hearing the icy emperor Han Xue, known for her cold demeanor, publicly offer such high praise,

the surrounding students erupted.

"Lin God! Take my knees!"

"Big Devil! You're my only adoptive father!"

"Need someone to carry your bag? Need someone to serve tea?"

Listening to the wild shouts around him,

Lin Mo smiled modestly.

"Teacher Han, you flatter me too much."

"This 59-second achievement isn't just my own."

"Ye Kong, Dawei, Xiao Han—they all contributed greatly inside."

Hearing Lin Mo's words,

Ye Kong, standing behind him, instantly blushed.

"Class leader… please stop saying that."

"If you keep talking like this, I won't know where to put my face."

Ye Kong sighed helplessly:

"Following the class leader into Team Fuben, I feel my profession shouldn't be called 【Space Walker】—it should be called 【War Correspondent】…"

"Hahahaha!"

Ye Kong's self-deprecating remark triggered a burst of laughter across the entire hall.

Even the usually stern Principal Guhe couldn't help laughing.

After the laughter subsided,

Principal Guhe turned to the other students of Long Xu Ban.

"Enough."

"Today's team Fuben is over. Everyone, head to the major leveling zones and push your levels to the limit!"

"The Ten Thousand Nations Battlefield is about to open. No slacking off!"

"Push your levels as close to 40 as you can!"

"Yes! Principal!"

Ye Kong and the others answered in unison, then quickly departed.

Principal Guhe called out to Lin Mo:

"Lin Mo, go back and change into some clean clothes, then come with me."

"Elder Nie of the Celestial Pivot Prefecture is waiting to see you, and so is your father, Lin Tianhao."

Hearing this,

Lin Mo also grew serious.

The Celestial Pivot Prefecture!

That was the very center of supreme power in the entire Dragon Nation.

Not just anyone could enter it.

And his own father, that dragon whose head and tail were never both seen, was also waiting for him.

Come to think of it, it had already been several days since he last chatted with his old man—he missed him dearly!

Lin Mo nodded.

"Alright, Principal."

"I'll go get ready right now."

……

The other end of the Blue Planet.

The Beautiful Nation, the Adams family's secret private island.

Inside that luxurious estate, Adams family youths were everywhere, reveling.

And beside the swimming pool,

Watanabe Junichi was kneeling on the cold floor like a stray dog with no home.

He was trembling all over.

Several Adams family youths stood with arms crossed over their chests, looking down at him as if he were garbage.

On a leather sofa not far away,

Carter was leaning lazily against the back of his chair.

One hand swirled a goblet, while the other toyed with an exquisite short blade.

Just then,

a youth in a black suit walked hurriedly over to Carter's side.

"Lord Carter."

The youth kept his voice very low.

"Latest intel."

"The record for the Shadow Withered Bone Forest was broken by the Dragon Nation ten minutes ago."

"The clear time…"

"59 seconds."

"……"

Hearing this, Carter's expression instantly darkened.

This was not only because he had just reported to the family higher-ups the good news that the Sakura Nation had taken the Dragon Nation's record, only to be slapped in the face again and again in return.

More importantly…

it was that clear time.

59 seconds!

As a core combatant of the Adams family, his strength was naturally formidable.

He also knew perfectly well what that clear time meant for a Team Fuben.

Damn, this was practically a joke.

Even if they really found a loophole in the Fuben, there was absolutely no way to push a Team Fuben clear under one minute.

One had to know that Team Fuben all had five stages.

Even if you stripped out every mechanic, treated the monsters as wooden stakes, and gathered the world's top level-35 elites, it would still be absolutely impossible to achieve that time.

"Dragon Nation…"

Carter narrowed his eyes and murmured:

"What kind of secret weapon are you hiding, exactly?"

The next moment,

he stood up.

Watanabe Junichi sensed something was off and turned his head.

He looked at Carter's face, dark to the extreme, and couldn't help but shudder.

It's over, he's done for.

The Dragon Nation has taken all three records.

"C-Carter, my lord…"

"You can't treat me like this… I'm still useful, very useful! I can gather any woman you're interested in for you!"

Smack smack smack—!

Carter ignored him and simply clapped his hands.

"Everyone, stop for a moment. For tonight's party, let's add an extra entertainment segment."

"None of you have seen it with your own eyes, have you? Come, let's watch together: the traditional art of the Ying people, seppuku!"

"Whoa, I really haven't seen it before."

"The Ying people are truly ruthless. I like it."

The young men stopped their actions one by one and crowded over.

Clang—

Carter casually tossed the short knife in front of Watanabe Junichi.

"My lord Carter... I beg you... I beg you, give me another chance..."

"I don't want to die... I really don't want to die!"

Watanabe trembled wildly.

The young men of the Adams family around him burst into laughter and whistling.

"Do it!"

"Didn't you say you value the spirit of the samurai the most? Don't make me look down on you!"

"Cut quickly! Let me see what color your intestines are, hahaha."

Hearing the cruel urging from around him.

Watanabe Junichi's hand, trembling, reached for the short knife.

But the instinctive fear of death made him pull his hand back as if struck by lightning.

He couldn't do it!

He didn't want to die!

"What a waste."

Carter snorted impatiently, then immediately gave a look to a young man nearby.

"Go, help him."

"Understood, my lord Carter."

That young man sneered and strode forward.

He grabbed Watanabe Junichi's hair by the handful and forced him to lift his head.

With his other hand, he picked up the short knife from the ground without hesitation.

Pfft!!!

There was not a shred of hesitation.

The sharp short knife instantly pierced through Watanabe Junichi's abdomen!

The young man even cruelly gripped the hilt and yanked it horizontally for a distance!

"Oh ho!!!"

"Beautiful!"

The young Adams men around erupted in cheers.

Carter looked coldly at the corpse beneath his feet, snatched a clean Mao Jin, and disgustingly wiped the bloodstain accidentally splashed on his shoe tip.

Just then.

The young man who had just gone to deliver the warning walked over to Carter again.

"My lord Carter."

"We just received the highest order from the family."

"The Council of Elders is convening an emergency meeting immediately."

"The topic of the meeting... regarding the extremely abnormal Team Fuben speedrun results displayed by the Dragon Kingdom within these three days."

Hearing this news.

Carter casually threw the blood-stained Mao Jin onto Watanabe's corpse.

"Understood."

"Prepare the helicopter."
