Chapter 720: Chapter 720

Main Quest: Kill three third-tier demons.

"As straightforward as ever," Du You smirked at the mission displayed on his panel. For him, this mission was not a trouble, just a side task.

This time, Du You aimed not only to help the two sisters create new skills, but also to see if he could get better gear, especially blueprints. As for the Crystal Coins, there’s no harm in having more.

Even if he couldn’t use them, they could be used directly for his territory. Both dedicated Crystal Coins and traded ones have the same value to the territory. Although it would be a bit of a waste.

"First-year Grade A, gather at coordinates XXX." Suddenly, a prompt appeared on the panel.

Looking at the coordinates, Du You perks up his mouth. This must be another plot from the academy. He didn’t take many steps before seeing his classmates gathering together.

Not only them, but other classes were also gathering nearby. After all, their generation was basically the backbone of special battle areas, such as their second battle area.

"Very well, everyone is here, let’s go." Xi Qianxue confirmed with a glance.

"Hey, isn’t this class A? Didn’t expect so few of you," A narcissus-like girl came over and smiled at Xi Qianxue.

Indeed, only eight people from their class A joined this time, but three of them were third-tier.

When Du You looked back, he saw Li Mengyao leading her classmates. The relation between the two classes seemed tense due to conflicts between Xi Qianxue and Li Mengyao.

"Mind your own business. We’re sure to perform better than you."

"Is that so? Let’s wait and see. By the way, are you Du You? I’ve heard a lot about you. How about we work together? I’ll treat you to dinner afterward."

At her words, many eyes shifted toward Du You, glowing red with envy.

Du You waved his hand, "We’ll discuss that later. I prefer to work alone." He didn’t understand what Li Mengyao wanted to do. Most girls wanted to secure their future by associating with him, but clearly, Li Mengyao did not belong to this category.

Though he didn’t know about Li Mengyao’s family, her fearlessness around Xi Qianxue suggested that her family background wasn’t simple, and certainly not inferior to Xi Qianxue’s. The subdued aura around her indicated that Li Mengyao had also reached third-tier. If he wasn’t mistaken, she probably obtained a lineage.

Xi Qianxue previously wanted to get a lineage through her family, but never succeeded and ended up getting it from Du You. In that case, Li Mengyao must have got her lineage from her family.

Neither of these two women was simple. Du You didn’t think Li Mengyao would need to rely on a man to make a living.

Li Mengyao was taken aback by Du You’s firm refusal. She wondered whether her charm was not as good as Xi Qianxue’s. Du You and Xi Qianxue’s relationship was said to be special.

With that, Li Mengyao changed tactics and said: "So be it for now, but can I seek your help when I need it later?" She clasped forward slightly.

"Li Mengyao, enough. Du You is our class-member." Xi Qianxue was irritated.

"So what if he is? Our personal relationship has nothing to do with you."

The war between the two women was already a headache. Now, they included Du You, which left him feeling helpless and annoyed. "Let’s talk later." Du You waved again, not wanting to deal with both of them.

"What are you dawdling for back there? Hurry up, we are heading to the second battle zone." At this moment, someone from afar yelled. It was not a student council member but a teaching assistant from the school.

They couldn’t ignore a teaching assistant. Exchanging glances, they led their teams down the path. Both of them marched in parallel at the front. It seemed they were vying to outdo each other in speed.

People laughed at Xi Qianxue, a usually aloof woman, for acting this way.

"Du You, you’re incredible. The two most excellent flowers of our academy are linked to you. However, you will be targeted by many people after this." Zhang Yu whispered.

Du You shook his head, "What relationship? That’s all their imagination. If anyone really tries to find trouble, I’m always ready."

"Well said, your strength is the key. With absolute strength, others are just clowns." Tiger King walked past Du You and spoke without concealing his thoughts.

Although Tiger King hadn’t reached the third-tier, he had a stronger aura than anyone else. This was due to his confidence and arrogance, which easily made him the center of attention.

Du You just smiled without worrying about their words. Being under the influence of hormones was dangerous.

Moreover, Tiger King was right about one thing. With absolute strength, he needn’t care about anyone. Whether they were big organizations or not, they would be of the same insignificance.

His current apprehension, or even fear, was only due to lack of strength.

He could compromise and retreat, but he mustn’t let his morale wane. Du You has always believed that he would someday surpass everyone and wouldn’t have to be so cautious in doing things.

Under the peculiar atmosphere, the group proceeded swiftly towards the predetermined destination. The World Boat had dropped them off near their destination, so it would take less than half a day to reach at their speed.

There weren’t many demons on the way, only a few that managed to slip through the front lines. Their strength wasn’t strong and their numbers few. Before they got to attack, they were swallowed by various long-range attacks and magic.

Close-quarters professionals couldn’t even approach before the target disappeared. The scene of dozens of people scrambling over a small monster gave Du You a strong sense of déjà vu. It was like the fierce competition when a new server was launched in the game, which was essentially meaningless. Updates are released by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩
