Chapter Seventy-Ninth: Everywhere was shrouded in an eerie atmosphere

  The sun was high in the sky, and suddenly a hot gust of wind came out, bringing with it a scorching heat that made one's face feel like it was being blasted by flames.

  Inside the classroom, the windows and doors were tightly closed, isolating the outside heat, and a cool breeze floated in the room.

  Lin Xiao sat in his own seat, the teacher in front of him was lecturing, but he was practicing his reading skills, and lost his enthusiasm for what the teacher was saying.

  The class ended peacefully, the middle-aged professor on the podium picked up his belongings and left the classroom. The classmates also stood up from their seats, either gathering in groups of three or five to chat, or leaving the classroom together.

  At this time, Lin Xiao felt that two pairs of eyes seemed to be staring at himself secretly, turned his head and saw Zhang Tao and Li Ran's gaze looking over here.

  The eyes of the three people met unexpectedly in mid-air, Zhang Tao and Li Ran saw Lin Xiao discover them, and were so frightened that they quickly turned their heads away, not daring to look this way again.

  "Heh heh." Lin Xiao let out a soft laugh and continued to lower his head to focus on his own matters, not bothering with the two of them.

  For Zhang Tao and Li Ran, Lin Xiao didn't hold any grudges, but he wouldn't give them a good face either. After all, they had sold themselves out. In the past, he had offended Zhou Wen and Li Le for their sake, but in the end, they still sold him out.

  Although Lin Xiao knew in her mind that it wasn't their intention, betrayal is still betrayal. Lin Xiao couldn't bring herself to have a heart-to-heart talk with the two of them just yet.

  And we weren't even good friends to begin with, were we!

  Lin Xiao sat in the classroom for a while longer, looked at the time and it was almost past 10 o'clock, so he got up and left the classroom, heading towards the artificial lake inside the school.

  In the past few days, he has been practicing using his psychic powers to control and shape various objects, from small to large, gradually progressing step by step. Now he has made significant progress, especially in the fine control of his psychic powers.

  Linhai University has three artificial lakes, which are scattered in a triangular shape in three locations on the campus. The northernmost artificial lake is the largest in area and also the quietest in environment.

  Lin Xiao walked on the road, far away, just in time to see those newborns resting.

  "Boot camp, haha." Lin Xiao stopped in his tracks and looked over that way.

  The freshmen of the first year had not yet formally started classes and were still undergoing military training. Lin Xiao stood on the spot for a while, his eyes suddenly falling on three new students standing under a big tree.

  "A very steady breath." Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, and he involuntarily walked forward for a distance, stopping about thirty meters away from the three people.

  "Let's take a look with detection." Lin Xiao thought to himself, and in an instant, the bright yellow light beam of the detection technique landed on one of the three people.

  Jin Yan, Combat Power: 24

  "What a high combat power." Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with sharp light, and in an instant, two probing spells fell on the other two people. In an instant, their names and combat powers appeared above their heads.

  Luo Ming, Combat Power: 21

  Hearing laughter, combat power: 20.4

  The other two people's fighting strength was also over twenty, although it wasn't as good as their companions.

  "Lin Hai University is indeed filled with talented people!" Lin Xiao thought to himself.

  Look at them, young and vigorous, their combat power has already broken through 20 one after another, far surpassing Li Wendlong, the first abnormal person Lin Xiao encountered.

  "Could it be that there really are those hidden sects or families in the world?" Lin Xiao thought to himself with a puzzled mind.

  If it's said that before obtaining the Wan Jie System, Lin Xiao would have definitely scoffed at this idea, then now, Lin Xiao no longer thinks so. The world is vast and full of wonders, there are some existences that ordinary people don't know about, what's impossible about that?

  And his own fighting strength is much stronger than theirs, isn't it!

  Smiling wryly, he shook his head. However, the appearance of these three people had piqued Lin Xiao's interest in this new batch, and he couldn't help but abandon his plan to go practice his incantations by the lake. Instead, he decided to use his detection technique to see if there were any other special individuals among them.

  With Lin Xiao's current spiritual power, the skill of probing that consumes so little can be used frequently now, even if it is used tens of thousands of times, there will be no adverse symptoms such as dizziness, and it can be used with confidence.

  Today, the freshmen of grade one were very confused. A handsome senior seemed to have been observing them all along, walking back and forth, but his gaze remained on this group of people. This situation lasted for more than half an hour before it ended.

  Many freshmen couldn't help but wonder if this senior was someone from the school's gossip club coming to investigate.

  Lin Xiao didn't care what these younger schoolmates were thinking, as one after another beam of bright yellow light fell on a newly born body, brief information about them also flashed before Lin Xiao's eyes.

  Originally thought that Jin Yan and the other two were just special cases, but now Lin Xiao no longer thinks so.

  "What a strange thing, there are actually so many powerful newbies. Are they planning to hold a martial arts conference?" At this juncture, Lin Xiao still made jokes, the reason being that he hadn't found anyone with combat power exceeding thirty.

  What brings this group of people together?

  Lin Xiao thought about this problem for a long time and still couldn't figure it out. He was still thinking about it when he went home after the afternoon class.

  Lin Xiao usually took the bus home, but today he chose to walk instead.

  Lin Hai University is a considerable distance from Fengyuan Community, passing through the iconic river 'Yujiang' in Yujiang City. At around 2 pm, not on any holiday, there were not many people by the riverbank of Yujiang, but Lin Xiao was puzzled to find that there were many strange pleasure boats on the river surface.

  They were strange because they moved so slowly and often lingered in a certain place for a while. Lin Xiao, who was careful, noticed this strange phenomenon and stopped to observe the nearest cruise ship on the river.

  "Could something have happened?" Lin Xiao wondered in her heart, but after careful consideration, even if something really did happen, it shouldn't be the responsibility of these tourist boats, should be the police boats instead!

  Across dozens of meters, Lin Xiao's gaze was fixed on the two figures standing at the bow of the cruise ship.

  It was a man and a woman, with Lin Xiao's current eyesight, he could see their faces very clearly, they were absolutely the type of handsome guy and beauty, but what was strange was that they both had long hair, and there were also sword hilts on their hands, if they changed into ancient clothes, it would give Lin Xiao a feeling of crossing back to the ancient Jianghu.

  "Abnormal." Lin Xiao muttered to himself, at this time a man and woman on the bow of the boat suddenly looked in his direction, perhaps because he had been staring at them all along, the other party's eyes seemed so sharp, as if four sharp swords were thrusting straight into Lin Xiao's heart.

  Lin Xiao pretended to be frightened and stumbled backward a few steps before hastily leaving the place.

  "Far stronger than those freshmen in school!" Lin Xiao walked back and forth, secretly wiping a cold sweat. The strength of this man and woman had actually made him sense the presence of danger.
