I'm just an assistant, I don't save people

Lin Yan immediately withdrew his gaze. The boy in a shirt and short hair next to him had an indifferent expression and stared at the information without looking away.

"My name is Mo Bufan, and I'm a teacher at Nanling Senior College. Lin Yan, although you're a student at the Junior College, you're also a member of our team, so you have to participate in the upcoming training."

Lin Yan nodded blankly.

The person next to Mo Bufan said, "My name is Yan Hei, and I'm a teacher at the Joint College's main office. I'm mainly responsible for connecting with the Joint College in Beihai and protecting your safety on the road. I came here today to meet you. Teacher Mo, you guys continue. I'll be leaving first."

Mo Bufan stood up and saw him out, then sat back down. Seeing Lin Yan picking at his fingers, the corners of his mouth twitched as he took a deep breath. "Lin Yan, while you were still taking the exam, we had already elected the captain for the representative competition, Luo Qingfeng."

"Oh." Lin Yan glanced at the 1.80-meter-tall boy, and suddenly thought of something. He put down his hand and looked at Luo Qingfeng again: "What's your name?"

Luo Qingfeng blinked, "Luo Qingfeng."

Lin Yan was so surprised that he almost thought it was Teacher Shen Qingfeng from Nanheng College.

She nodded: "I'll take note of it."

Luo Qingfeng smiled and said, "I sent you a copy of our information. Training will start tomorrow. You and Liu Jingyuan are both special team members, and both will be auxiliary."

Lin Yan emphasized, "I'm a special assistant for a new profession, and I can't provide attribute recovery or physical healing."

Liu Jingyuan asked in surprise: "Don't you have auxiliary skills?"

Lin Yan turned his head to look at the person sitting next to him and spread his hands, "Uh... I don't know how to use it."

"You've also taken a minor in formation techniques, and there are also monster beasts with very similar attributes. There's very little information here about you using monster beasts. Could you bring them out for us to practice with during training tomorrow? I'd like to know how they differ from Liusheng's contracted beasts."

The person who spoke was a girl who was sitting next to Luo Qingfeng.

After she finished speaking, she added, "By the way, my name is Meng Yu."

Lin Yan folded his arms, crossed his legs, and said coldly, "It depends on my mood."

"You," Meng Yu was a little exasperated.

Luo Qingfeng patted Meng Yu's shoulder and said, "Among us, only Lin Yan has learned formations, and he's pretty good at it. I watched your final exam video and you can actually stack three formations."

Lin Yan asked doubtfully, "Exam video?"

She only knew that two teachers from the United College were following them, but she didn't know about the live broadcast.

The others didn't elaborate further. The boy named Liusheng suddenly said, "It's a pity that they are all low-level formations."

Lin Yan said calmly, "I'm just a junior student, so why are all the formations not low-level? Are they all high-level?"

Luo Qingfeng suddenly felt a headache. Lin Yan's performance in the exam was very cold and his temper was also very strange. It was indeed difficult to deal with him.

Han Qiu Sheng sat opposite Lin Yan, looking down at him with an arrogant look.

Lin Yan turned her head away, ignoring him, and flipped through their information. She roughly knew the names of the people here, which college they came from, and their basic information.

All were from senior colleges, seventeen or eighteen years old.

The highest level here is called Liusheng, level 52.

Meng Yu, who had just spoken to her, was the lowest level among them, only level 42, but she possessed the five-color attribute, which was equivalent to having four more attributes than others and was extremely rare.

Lin Yan was watching when Han Qiu Sheng suddenly leaned in and said, "If... you can practice with me once, I'll give you a high-grade spirit stone. How about that?"

"Ah," Lin Yan was startled and leaned back subconsciously, "You..."

Han Qiusheng placed his right hand on the table, bent over, and looked straight at her. Then he narrowed his eyes and asked, "How is it?"

Lin Yan restrained his expression and said, "One piece is not enough."

"Three, no more."

"Deal." Lin Yan snapped his fingers, "But you guys pay for the spirit stones needed for training."

"The kid is quite greedy."

Lin Yan pursed his lips and said, "Just tell me whether you will give it to me or not."

"Give, give."

"Then I'll go back to sleep." Lin Yan stood up and was about to leave.

Luo Qingfeng asked in surprise: "You go to bed so early at night?"

"Brother, I just finished my exam today." Lin Yan yawned.

Luo Qingfeng was caught off guard when she called him "Brother", as he and she were not related by blood.

Lin Yan didn't bother to care what he thought. He said something to Mo Bufan who had been silent all the time, then pushed the door and left.

As soon as she left, several voices were heard in the conference room.

"What's her attitude?"

"Why did Nan Heng sign her up even though she didn't want to participate? Just because she's going to the Linghai Secret Realm to find a way to break through shouldn't take up someone else's spot."

"Maybe Nan Heng just randomly signed her up and didn't expect her to win. There's nothing we can do about it, he's just so talented. If Shen Li from your academy was as talented, she wouldn't even be qualified to stand ahead of you."

"Han Qiusheng, what do you mean?"

"That's what I mean. You don't like her, but I think she's pretty good. She's arrogant and self-righteous, which is just my style."

"Stop talking," Luo Qingfeng glared at Han Qiusheng, then turned and asked, "Jingyuan, you and she are both support players, what do you think?"

"Based solely on these data and her final performance, there are some bright spots, but our opponents are all from advanced colleges, with high levels and powerful skills. Her monster beast may be able to help, but she herself still needs a few years of growth."

Luo Qingfeng nodded: "Well, after all, age is there."

Meng Yu said, "She doesn't need to appear anyway, so just let her be there to cheer us on."

Han Qiusheng smiled and said, "That will probably cost more, and Lin Yan will definitely ask for an exorbitant price. She won't do it without hundreds of top-grade spirit stones."

Meng Yu: “…”

On the other side, after Lin Yan came out, he went straight back to find Garlic, and the two returned to the room to learn about elixirs.

Garlic asked, "Why did you come back so quickly? You scared me and Teacher Jiang Feng."

"They ran away because of their bad temper." Lin Yan laughed, fiddling with a few spiritual herbs. "They were thinking of competing with me tomorrow. I didn't want to participate in this ridiculous competition in the first place, so of course I won't give them a free sparring partner."

"You want money?" Suantou's eyes lit up.

"No, I met someone who knows the business there, and he offered three high-grade spirit stones."

Lin Yan raised three fingers and said, "It's a small profit."

"Oh, sure. Can I go watch it tomorrow?"

"You'll have to ask the team leader, a man named Mo Bufan."

"Wow, this teacher is really famous. Many people are desperate to get into Nanli largely because of him. But some people also say that his teaching method is weird and it feels like he's not teaching anything."

Lin Yan nodded in agreement. "When I walked in, the teacher only said a few words at the beginning, but didn't say a word the whole time. It was Luo Qingfeng who eased the atmosphere."

Suantou's expression was odd. "Really? Then Teacher Mo is really a strange teacher."

The two continued to study.

Xiaolan is now in charge of the family finances and allocates three meals a day to Xiaoye and Xiaoying.

That day, Xiao Ye asked for no apparent reason, "When do you think the master can leave?"

Xiaolan gave it a punch and replied with the words she had learned from Lin Jingke: "You are so powerful, why don't you go out by yourself?"

Xiao Ye turned around and said nothing. Of course, it had no other choice, otherwise why would it look for Lin Yan.

Xiaoying trembled and silently absorbed the attribute power. Its advancement was more difficult than the other three monsters. It was already a thousand-year-old monster. Before it met Lin Yan, it had transformed twice, but both times ended in failure.

Time goes back to yesterday.

In Qi Siji's office, Pei Qian explained the reason why the Pei family left Tianluo City many years ago.

"Tianluo City changes distinctly with each season. Even the Tianluo Forest and Tianluo Mountains... In fact, even a cultivator who has surpassed the Lingjue Realm can see that the Tianluo Mountains are actually a man-made mountain range, that is, a secret realm."

Pei Qin's words made the two of them break out in a cold sweat, but the following words made them even more stunned. They were unable to recover from the shock for a long time and could not sleep the whole night.

Pei Qian continued, "We all live in a secret realm. To get out of here, we need luck, just like opening a blind box. What you get may be another secret realm, or a way out."

"The restrictions of the laws of heaven and earth are just a trick of a great cultivator behind the scenes. Maybe one day he gets upset and will crush us to death. I don't know how many years ago, humans and monsters were the same, living in the Tianluo Forest. My ancestors discovered this secret and used the fact that outsiders are not restricted by the laws of heaven and earth to break through the illusion and escape from the forest."

"Afterwards, people continued to escape, but they couldn't get out. Humans have a lifespan, and so do outsiders. Our ancestors searched for a way out and built cities near the mountains, waiting for outsiders, because only their power could break the spatial rules here. The emergence of the Dragon Clan Secret Realm is a new door, but it's a pity that this door is useless."
