Godslayer: The different abilities represented by the twelve two-hour periods of the day

"Brother, are you Lin Qiye's friend?" Baili Pangpang, who had been kicked away, got up and approached Lin Shi. He could tell that Lin Qiye and the other person not only knew each other, but were also very familiar with each other.

"Hmm." Lin Shi nodded, his smile fading as he decided not to tease Lin Qiye any further.

If we keep harping on this, he'll suffer a terrible fate later on.

Cao Yuan, who had been eating melon seeds in front of the door and returning to his chanting state, suddenly opened his eyes upon hearing Lin Qiye's name and muttered to himself:

"Lin Qiye... Lin Qiye... Two trees stand tall, one of the eight gods is gone, ten years have passed since nightfall, guiding the world, I never expected to find a benefactor here!"

Cao Yuan's face was filled with excitement, his eyes like those of a rutting teddy bear encountering a sleeping woman, drooling with desire.

Lin Qiye didn't hear what Cao Yuan was saying, but the look in his eyes gave him goosebumps all over.

Lin Qiye asked Cao Yuan, "Do you know me?"

Cao Yuan shook his head, "I don't know you, but I know you are the benefactor I've been waiting for!"

"I'm not your benefactor, you've mistaken me for someone else," Lin Qiye said calmly, looking at Lin Shi. "Is this person your roommate?"

Lin Shi nodded; this was his roommate.

Seeing Lin Qiye shake his head in denial, Cao Yuan said with a firm look in his eyes, "I haven't mistaken you for someone else. The Golden Cicada Grandmaster has calculated for me that only you, Lin Qiye, can cleanse me of my sins."

Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Baili Pangpang handed two boxes of watches, one a Rolex and the other a Patek Philippe, to Lin Shi and Cao Yuan, saying, "You'll all be training together from now on, so please keep an eye on each other."

Baili Pangpang demonstrated his financial power by gifting a watch.

Lin Shi smiled and picked out a Rolex watch that caught his eye, then put it in his pocket. "This one will do!"

Baili Pangpang smiled happily, raised his eyebrows, and gestured for Cao Yuan to choose one as well.

Seeing that Lin Shi accepted it, Cao Yuan also took a watch from among them, hesitated for a moment, and then handed the watch in his hand to Lin Qiye with both hands.

"Seven Nights, do you like this? Mine is for you."

Baili Pangpang was struck dumb, as if by lightning.

No, I just gave it to you, and you turned around and gave it to me to lick... My roommate Lin Qiye, what does he take me for, a love rival's sponsor...?

Seeing this comical scene, Lin Shi laughed so hard he could barely stand. It seemed that bringing Cao Yuan along was the right thing to do; he had certainly had his fill of this gossip, and was even a little stuffed.

......

These past two days, the students from Lin Shi and Lin Qiye's dorms have been hanging out together, basically going everywhere together.

Especially Cao Yuan, whose cold and aloof demeanor from when they first met was completely gone, replaced by a sycophant who fawned over Lin Qiye day and night.

He even wanted to exchange dormitories with Baili Pangpang, but was decisively rejected.

You're my formidable rival, and you want to change dorms? Dream on.

Today is the third day since Lin Shi and Lin Qiye arrived at the training camp. All the trainees have arrived and gathered on the training ground, while more than thirty instructors stand on the martial arts platform.

The trainees stood in groups of three or five or alone, whispering and talking amongst themselves everywhere below the training platform, just like university students during their first military training session.

"Stop pushing and shoving, stand to the side." Baili Pangpang pointed at Cao Yuan, who kept moving closer to Lin Qiye.

"Where I stand is none of your business. Qi Ye has no objection." Cao Yuan said dismissively.

At times like these, Lin Shi would always stand aside and watch the show, occasionally offering a few comments.

"Seven Nights, tell me... will a real-life version of 'The Legend of Zhen Huan' unfold around you in the future?"

"roll."

At this moment, Lin Qiye also began to realize what was going on.

I had a feeling that Lin Shi knew something, as if Cao Yuan was someone he had brought along on purpose.

Given his personality, his purpose in doing this was simply to watch a good show and keep himself in a good mood.

Lin Qiye did indeed feel that the four lines of poetry Cao Yuan recited were referring to him.

But how did Lin Shi know that?

I've already asked Cao Yuan, and he said he hadn't mentioned it to Lin Shi at all.

Lin Qiye stared at Lin Shi's profile, his eyes filled with a myriad of thoughts.

The Emperor of Time is a god of time, and the Great Xia's understanding of the Emperor of Time is limited to Lin Shi's description.

Unless Lin Shi reveals it, probably no organization in the world knows what abilities Lin Shi, the agent of the Zafkiel, has, or to what extent.

The ability to foresee the future may be a secret weapon that Lin Shih has been hiding.

Just as Lin Qiye was distracted, a roar came from the martial arts stage.

"Stand still, all of you!!!" the instructor behind Yuan Gang roared!

In an instant, almost all the new recruits stopped whispering to each other, but the ranks remained crooked and distorted.

Yuan Gang's brows were sharp as he scanned the crowd. The aura emanating from him came from the tempering of life-and-death battles, something that the new recruits lacked.

"I know that you are all geniuses from all over the Great Xia Dynasty. You are either second-generation rich kids from prominent families, or you possess forbidden realms that ordinary people dream of, or you have unparalleled skills."

But judging from the way you guys were just now, you gave off the impression of a bunch of thugs. You didn't seem like geniuses at all. You were just a bunch of good-for-nothings, not even newbies. Even thugs have some discipline and guts!

On the contrary, you have absolutely no discipline or fighting spirit! You are the worst class I've ever taught!

When you face danger now, you will only kill yourselves and implicate innocent teammates!

You are still a long way from truly becoming members of the Night's Watch!

Yuan Gang's voice grew louder and louder, his mocking words echoing like thunder across the empty training ground, piercing the hearts of these geniuses.

As expected, it happened again: "You're the worst class I've ever taught."

Lin Shi remembered that every time he moved up to a new school, his new homeroom teacher would say something like this. He nodded to himself, thinking that it was the right tone, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Hey kid over there...yes, it's you! What are you laughing at!"

Yuan Gang's eyes widened like copper bells as he stared at Lin Shi with piercing gaze.

He kept an eye on the group of four from beginning to end.

We have to keep an eye on them. There are two agents of the gods, one is the young master of the Baili family, and the other is an extremely high-risk forbidden area, which is second only to the Divine Ruins. Each of them is someone who needs to be closely watched.

If they all hang out together and one of them becomes a genius, that would be a disaster.

Upon seeing the instructor approach, Lin Qiye immediately took a few steps to the side, distancing himself from Lin Shi.

It has nothing to do with me; it's your own business.

Seeing that Lin Qiye had set an example by distancing himself from his roommate Lin Shi, Cao Yuan realized that he was Lin Qiye's man.

Seeing that Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan were both so lacking in spirit, Baili Pangpang felt relieved and took a step towards Lin Qiye, also leaving Lin Shi's side.

Seeing the murderous aura emanating from Yuan Gang, the students around Lin Shi silently moved away from Lin Shi, forming a circle that surrounded him.

Seeing this scene out of the corner of his eye, Lin Shi looked at Yuan Gang, who exuded an imposing aura without being angry, and realized that he was being used as the first person to establish his authority.

Lin Shi stood at attention and saluted. "Trainee Lin Shi will absolutely obey orders and sincerely admires the instructors who have protected Daxia for many years."

However, Lin Qiye said, "The instructors always say that the last class is the worst, no matter what." Lin Shi pointed at Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye's eyes widened in disbelief. "You're playing games like this?!"
