Traveling to the future, the story with the orc king

Long Si drove to a spacious courtyard where many talented young beastmen gathered. Some gathered in groups of three or five, chatting, while others stood quietly by.

When Long Yan led Lin Ziyu into the courtyard, everyone's attention was drawn to him. When they saw Long Yan, their previous conversations stopped and they all bowed to him and said, "His Royal Highness, how are you?"

Long Yan smiled and replied, "No need to be so polite." He then introduced Lin Ziyu to everyone, "This is my partner, Lin Ziyu, a level six alchemist. You can call him Young Master Lin."

Hearing Long Yan's words, everyone hurriedly saluted Lin Ziyu and shouted in unison: "Hello, Master Lin!"

Faced with such a warm welcome, Lin Ziyu felt both excited and nervous. However, he managed to remain calm and politely replied, "Thank you everyone. My name is Lin Ziyu. Please take care of me."

A young man from the wolf tribe, dressed in gorgeous clothes, stepped forward, bowed to Long Yan and Lin Ziyu, and said, "Your Highness, Young Master Lin, I am Lang Xiaoyi, son of the Wolf King. I have long heard that Young Master Lin is a promising young man, and seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved."

Seeing this, Lin Ziyu hurriedly returned the greeting, "Mr. Wolf, thank you for your compliment. I only have a basic understanding of alchemy."

A tall, muscular orc approached. He looked majestic and exuded a powerful aura. He smiled and said to Lin Ziyu, "Hello, Young Master Lin! I am Hu Haoyue, son of the Tiger King of the Tiger Tribe. My younger brother, Hu Huyue, is also an alchemist! He admires you very much."

Before Lin Ziyu could respond, another voice rang out. It belonged to a young man dressed in fine clothes, his eyes gleaming with arrogance and confidence. He said with a smile, "Master Hu, your Hu Huyue is now capable of refining a first-grade elixir! Why didn't Hu Huyue come today? If he had, he could have met the person he admires." Then, turning to Lin Ziyu, he introduced himself, "Hello, Young Master Lin. I am Feng Tianyi of the Wing Clan."

Lin Ziyu responded with a smile: "Hello."

After Feng Tianyi's introduction, the serious-looking young man looked at Lin Ziyu and said calmly, "Hello, I am Long Qi from the Dragon Clan, Long Yan's cousin." His temperament was calm and restrained, but his eyes were full of determination and courage.

"Hello, I'm Lin Ziyu." Lin Ziyu said.

Beside Long Liang was a young man with a smile that was friendly and kind. He looked at Lin Ziyu and said warmly, "Hello, Master Lin, I am She Yanchen from the Snake Clan." He was a man who made people stand out at first sight.

Then, a lively and lovely girl came bounding up to Lin Ziyu. She blinked her bright eyes, a bright smile on her face. She said happily, "Yeah, and here's me too. I'm Lu Lu Meng from the Deer Tribe." Then, pointing to the woman next to her, she introduced her to Lin Ziyu, "This is Sister Huang Beiyue Huang. She's also from the Wing Tribe."

Huang Beiyue nodded to Lin Ziyu and said, "Hello, I'm Huang Beiyue, from the Winged Clan." Her voice was clear and melodious, like the sound of nature. Her eyes shone like stars, and her hair flowed in the wind, like a dancing fairy.

Lin Ziyu smiled and greeted She Yanchen, Lu Lumeng, and Huang Beiyue, secretly marveling at their beauty. At this moment, two young beastmen, a man and a woman, came over and introduced themselves one by one.

"Master Lin, I've long heard of your name. I'm Leopard Feiyang from the Leopard Clan." The man in brocade clothes said gracefully with a confident smile on his face.

"Haha, I'm Xiong Xiangling from the bear tribe. Let's have a drink together when we have time!" The short-haired woman laughed heartily, with a hint of unruly in her eyes.

Lin Ziyu responded politely to everyone's greetings.

Long Yan smiled and said to Lin Ziyu, "Ziyu, they are all from the Imperial City Academy participating in this martial arts competition, and Lang Xiaoyi is their captain."

Lin Ziyu smiled and nodded.

Long Yan continued, "Zi Yu, I have something to discuss with Lang Xiao Yi and the others. Let Lu Lu Meng take you around here."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy! Longyan." Lin Ziyu replied.

The lively Lu Lu Meng said excitedly: "Your Highness, I'm taking Young Master Lin over there." After that, she pulled Lin Ziyu away.

When they reached the place Lu Lu Meng mentioned, Lin Ziyu asked, "Have you been training here all the time?"

Lu Lu Meng said with a smile: "No, we have been studying in the Orc Imperial City Academy. The competition between academies was held in the Imperial City this year, so we just came here. However, a few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went with us to Tingfeng Guigu for the trial, and only came back last night. You don’t know, His Royal Highness looks so heroic and handsome. His Royal Highness is the strongest among us." There was a gleam of admiration in her eyes, as if she had become a loyal fan of the Crown Prince.

Lin Ziyu heard from Lu Lumeng that Long Yan hadn't visited him for a few days because he was going to the Ghost Valley Trial. He asked with concern, "Is Tingfeng Ghost Valley very dangerous?"

Lu Lu Meng replied, "Master Lin, Tingfeng Ghost Valley is ranked fifth in danger among our Orcs, not the most dangerous."

Then she began to tell Lin Ziyu about what Prince Longyan and they had encountered during the three days of trial in Ghost Valley.

"Master Lin, our first day in Ghost Valley was quite uneventful. We just had to overcome the first level and the strong wind. We didn't encounter any special beasts. We only encountered some low-level beasts, and Your Highness didn't take action. On the second day, we encountered the Dream Beast, a cute little beast with a very strong illusion. I was trapped for a whole day before I could get out. If Your Highness hadn't caught the Dream Beast, I might not be able to return now." After saying this, he looked at Lin Ziyu with a smile and asked, "Master Lin, can you help Your Highness and me get a Dream Beast?" After saying this, he looked at Lin Ziyu with a pleading expression.

Lin Ziyu thought of the beast bag Long Yan had given him that morning, which contained two large and five small squirrel-like beasts. So he asked, "Does the Dream Beast look like a squirrel?"

Lu Lu Meng looked at Lin Ziyu with bright eyes, and her expression seemed to be saying, give me one quickly, I really want to have one!

Lin Ziyu's lips curled up slightly, and he chuckled softly, saying, "You guys are going to Tingfeng Ghost Valley just to undergo the trial, right?"

Lu Lu Meng was stunned by his question, then exclaimed, "Ah!" She glanced around nervously, thinking that His Highness hadn't said not to tell Young Master Lin, so she lowered her voice and replied, "We were actually going to pick some herbs. It's very important."

Lin Ziyu, upon hearing Lu Lumeng's response, recalled what Long Yan had told him about the Broken Mirror Pill. The three main ingredients in the Pill were the Ice and Fire Lotus of the Human Race, the Qingfeng Fruit of the Orcs, and the Earth and Rock Fruit of the Sea Clan. He guessed that Long Yan and his group were going to pick the Qingfeng Fruit, the main ingredient in the Broken Mirror Pill.

Lin Ziyu didn't ask any further questions when he thought of this, but instead started chatting with Lu Lu Meng about the Dream Beast.
