Chapter 248: Junior Brother Lin Mo, I Want to Give It a Try

Just then.

Inside the main hall of the Team Fuben.

"Holy crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!!!!"

"Look! Cleared it! 57 seconds! My god..."

"57 seconds?! That's absurd..."

"The Great Demon King is awesome!!"

The students erupted in cheers.

Hearing this, Yan Lie suddenly raised his head and looked toward the direction displaying the Team Fuben record.

【Current Fastest Clear Record Team: Lin Mo, Ye Kong, Han Mengyao, Chu Lingxuan, Wang Dawei...】

【Final Clear Time: 57 seconds!】

Yan Lie stared fixedly at that "57 seconds".

This...

This can't be possible, right?

Wow, you're really doing it?

Yan Lie swallowed hard, feeling his scalp go numb.

It wasn't just Yan Lie.

Feng Cangqiong also widened his eyes.

"Hiss——!!!"

He sucked in a sharp breath, turned to look at Nie Zhen Guo beside him, his eyes filled with shock.

"Old Nie..."

"Is this kid a bit too absurd?"

Nie Zhen Guo stood with his hands clasped behind his back.

A gratified smile appeared on his aged face.

He had long prepared himself mentally.

Now, his attitude toward Lin Mo was simple: no matter what earth-shattering thing Lin Mo did, just keep a calm mindset.

Just then.

The light of the Team Fuben rift flashed.

Lin Mo, leading the Long Xu Ban group, stepped out of the rift.

The great white beast, burning with crimson flames, followed close beside Lin Mo.

Seeing this, Principal Guhe hurriedly rushed forward to meet them.

The others followed closely behind.

"Well done, Lin Mo."

Principal Guhe smiled slightly.

Lin Mo also curled the corner of his lips, stating calmly:

"Not bad, didn't keep the Principal waiting long."

Afterwards,

Principal Guhe turned sideways and began introducing the people before him to Lin Mo.

"Lin Mo, come here."

"This Elder Nie, you are already very familiar with."

Lin Mo looked at Nie Zhen Guo and nodded respectfully:

"Elder Nie."

Nie Zhen Guo patted Lin Mo's shoulder, satisfied.

Principal Guhe pointed to the old man beside him.

"This one is the President of our Dragon Nation Mage Association, Feng Cangqiong, Elder Feng!"

"At the same time, he is also one of the Five Elders of the Tianxu Prefecture!"

Hearing this, Lin Mo's expression became serious.

"Lin Mo greets Elder Feng."

Feng Cangqiong laughed heartily, stepped forward directly, and grabbed Lin Mo's wrist.

"Good! Good! Good!"

"Truly, heroes emerge from youth!"

"This old man has truly opened his eyes today!"

Immediately after.

Principal Guhe pointed to the last young man.

"Lin Mo, this is your senior from the previous Long Xu Ban class, and also last year's class monitor."

"The current President of the Dragon Nation Mage Association's Youth Association, Yan Lie."

Hearing the introduction, Lin Mo looked at Yan Lie.

This senior's eyes were extremely sharp, and a sharpness that could not be concealed radiated from his body.

"Senior Yan Lie."

Lin Mo nodded.

"Hello, junior brother Lin Mo."

Yan Lie smiled and nodded in response, his gaze locked dead onto Lin Mo.

The introductions were complete.

Feng Cangqiong also got straight to the point.

He looked at Lin Mo, his tone fervent.

"Lin Mo."

"This old man personally made the trip today, besides wanting to see you."

"The main purpose is to formally extend an invitation to you on behalf of the Dragon Nation Mages Association."

"How about joining our Dragon Nation Mages Association?"

At these words.

Xu Wenchang, off to the side, was stunned.

He instinctively spoke up:

"This... Elder Feng."

"According to the rules, whether it's the Mages Association or the Warriors Association, don't they generally only recruit students after graduation?"

"Students of the Dragon Sequence Class, because the term is only one year, generally enter the associations a bit earlier."

"But Lin Mo, he... has only been enrolled for less than a week? Isn't this, isn't this a bit early?"

Hearing Xu Wenchang's words.

Feng Cangqiong snorted coldly:

"Early? What's early about it?"

"Rules are made for ordinary people."

"Given Lin Mo's current strength, you'd have him wait until graduation?"

"Believe it or not, if you pulled out any random Dragon Sequence Class graduate from history, none of them could beat Lin Mo."

"With this kind of strength, why wait for graduation?"

Nie Zhenguo, off to the side, also chimed in with a smile:

"Old Xu, special talents naturally deserve special treatment."

"He already has the identity of a Town Nation Dragon Envoy; what's a mere Mages Association?"

"This..."

Xu Wenchang glanced at Principal Guhe beside him and found the principal was merely smiling.

"Fair point."

Xu Wenchang nodded.

Lin Mo looked at Feng Cangqiong and asked:

"Elder Feng."

"If I join the Mages Association, what duties do I need to fulfill? And... what practical benefits are there for me?"

Facing Lin Mo's blunt question.

Elder Feng instead grew even more appreciative.

"Good lad, 痛快 enough!"

He patiently explained:

"The duties are simple—when the Association needs you, you can step in, that's all."

"The usual red tape, you don't need to bother with any of it!"

"As for the benefits..."

Feng Cangqiong paused and said:

"Lin Mo, you have to understand that the truly top-tier resources and rarest intelligence in this world..."

"will never flow into the commercial guilds or auction houses on the open market."

"Those things, the moment they appear, are usually digested directly by the big shots within the major associations."

"For instance... extremely rare 【Element Shards】."

"Or for example, the materials needed to comprehend high-tier combination techniques."

"If you had to rely solely on grinding out in the wild yourself, or waiting for allocation from the nation's higher-ups, you'd be waiting forever."

"But within the Association."

"It's a circle that gathers all the top mage-system big shots of the entire Dragon Nation."

"Everyone has some rare resources they can't use or don't want to use."

"Join the Association, and you can enter this most core circle and obtain the resources you want at the fastest speed."

After hearing Feng Cangqiong's words.

Lin Mo nodded.

Understood.

Put plainly, it's entering a top-tier circle, a circle full of big shots.

Elder Feng's words were indeed not wrong.

How could these top-tier resources possibly be put up for sale at a trading house?

Take Element Shards as an example.

If he could quickly obtain Element Shards and condense an Element Avatar.

When the time comes, Dabai cooperating with the four avatars going all out at once.

Dare not even imagine...

Thinking of this.

Lin Mo nodded directly.

"Good."

"Elder Feng, I'm willing to join."

"Hahahahaha! Excellent!"

Feng Cangqiong laughed excitedly.

Principal Guhe, seeing this, also stepped out with a smile to take charge of the situation.

"Alright."

"Lin Mo, you and your classmates have worked hard too."

"Take your classmates, go level up if you need to, rest if you need to."

Principal Guhe turned his head to look at Elder Nie and Elder Feng.

"You two, shall we head to my office for a sit and a nice cup of tea?"

Nie Zhenguo nodded:

"Good, let's go."

Just as everyone was preparing to disperse.

"Wait."

A voice thick with intense fighting spirit rang out.

Everyone was stunned.

They all turned their heads in unison.

They saw Yan Lie staring at Lin Mo.

In his heart, a blazing fighting spirit had ignited.

Who was he, Yan Lie?

He was the class monitor of the previous Long Xu Ban!

He was the madman who had punched through the entire grade!

He was also the current president of the Youth Mage Association!

In his bones, he was an out-and-out battle maniac.

And just now, Elder Feng had said in front of everyone, even in front of him, a Long Xu Ban graduate…

That graduates of all previous years were simply no match for Lin Mo.

How could Yan Lie stand for this?

Wasn't this slapping him in the face?

Yan Lie looked at Lin Mo, his face provocative, and said word by word:

"Junior Brother Lin Mo, I admit you're very strong, but… I'd like to try."
