Who gave you permission to travel through time with Earth?

"Wait, you...you weren't one of Jiang Chan's downlines?"

"Yes, but she has her own plans and I have my own arrangements. I won't feel at ease without trying it out myself."

Du Wei stood calmly, his hands, gloved in black, folded in front of him, looking at Fang Jin with a cool and indifferent expression. The preparatory students were even more tense, all waiting for the latter's decision.

The dean, who is also in charge of the preparatory class, is a full-time staff member who came down from the core level of the Bronze Hall. No one expected that the senior student they met earlier had this other identity.

Guo Shi was already chattering, not out of fear but out of embarrassment. After all, she had just mentioned bribery several times in front of the person in question, which made even the thick-skinned Guo Shi blush.

Fang Jin was somewhat surprised, but not overly astonished. After all, he had allowed Du Wei to be guided only after he was certain that he had the ability to defeat Du Wei, and there was no difference now that their identities had been switched.

"But being in the clock tower, and within the enemy's equipment range... that seems a bit troublesome."

"Haven't made up your mind yet? My first impression of you is starting to fade..."

"That's none of my business, wipe it off yourself."

Fang Jin interrupted, a sword and a dagger already in her hands, spiritual flames coiling around them. She aimed them at Du Wei, who sat behind the desk, and spoke with a hint of excitement.

"You'd like to attack first?"

He also wanted to test the results of these three days. One nightmare and two normal dungeons. Fang Jin had never had such intensive strategy experience, nor had he ever made such a huge improvement.

[Name: Fang Jin, Level 29]

Evolution Points: 100, Positive Value: 11

[Talent System: Star Eater (Currently Recovered 7%), Jiōji Monk Academy (Current Level 29/34)]

【技能：熔炉模式80%（当前练度30/？），石灰皮（20/30)，金属纯化（25/30），剑术专精lv2（25/30），战斗专精lv2（25/30），玩火术（25/30)，定拙火·萤火（28/30），定拙火·阳焰（28/30），定拙火·烟雾（28/35），召唤术－紫乌骓（25/29），小日如来掌（25/41）】

[Equipment: The baker's cleaver, the novelist's chess piece, the Blood-Drinking Copper Coin Sword]

In fact, aside from making it easier to enter the dungeon earlier in the future, Fang Jin spent almost all his points, not even keeping any reserves for breaking through to the intermediate level, raising his stats to a terrifying level.

While improving body control, it also branched out and merged with the fighting specialization, and was eventually combined by Fang Jin into a combat specialization, where the common passives almost multiplied their effects.

He even lavishly invested points into the Star Eater system. With each rank increase, the evolution points were acquired exponentially. Now, Fang Jin can revitalize Earth to a certain extent.

The improvement brought by the 7% recovery of the Star Eater is not so intuitive. Compared with the equivalent of level 20 in the Origin System, the percentage will become smaller and smaller as you go further, until the remains are completely replenished.

But in any case... Fang Jin is really strong now, strong enough to fight against players at the Great Life Level and the Mid-Level Players. Although he has not actually tested it, he is confident in this.

And there seems to be a perfect (and annoying) test subject right in front of us.

"...You dare fight me? Inside this clock tower?"

Du Wei seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, and exaggeratedly raised his index finger to point at his forehead, but his eyes instantly became serious, completely different from his usual personality.

But his students didn't notice this. The leader, with an afro, almost grinned to death, his body growing taller and redder, his arm muscles bulging unnaturally, as he roared at Fang Jin:

"You think you're worthy to fight the Dean? Let me see what you're made of first, you piece of trash!"

He swooped down in an instant, his arms unleashing rings of energy, his forward legs shattering the floor! Like a giant mammoth charging head-on, the overwhelming pressure was terrifying!

Guo Shi and the others turned pale instantly. This move was already close to Xu Hao's level of pressure. Tie Tu, a mere preparatory class student, had this kind of strength? Could anyone just pick him out and have the combat power of a third-tier fighter?

Fang Jin sighed and grabbed Wu Sha, preparing to leave the battlefield. However, the resistance from his feet prevented him from breaking free immediately. Looking down, he saw that the thick layer of ice had already submerged him up to his knees.

"hiss……"

A white-haired boy was hiding in the crowd, his blue pupils gleaming with fighting spirit. Strands of cold air were rapidly exhaled from the corners of his mouth, forming a thick layer of ice on the ground and freezing them in place.

Even though it's just a control technique, the frostbite it causes is terrifying. If an ordinary person stays in this environment for 15 minutes, their legs will freeze black and die. Amputation to save their life would be considered a good outcome.

At that moment, the giant, afro-haired creature had already lunged forward, roaring as it smashed through the ice and hurtled towards Fang Jin! The latter seemed to have no time to even struggle.

"..."

Had Sister Jiang misjudged him? Du Wei puffed on his cigar, exhaling clouds of smoke. He had a lot of confidence in his student, but if the other party didn't even have a chance to resist, then it would be truly disappointing...

"Smoking is prohibited indoors; not many people like the smell of tar."

But behind that enormous figure came Fang Jin's calm, indifferent voice. Then the enormous figure suddenly stopped, and then its entire body seemed to collapse and fall to the right!

"Bang—!"

The shockwaves spread from one point to his entire body, causing most of the flesh on his right side to bulge as if it were about to explode! Even though he managed to suppress the explosion into a bloody mist, his body still flew uncontrollably towards the wall!

All eyes froze, focusing on Fang Jin's casually raised left fist. The fist was so bright it was almost black, as if it contained explosive energy, and the surrounding air seemed to distort upon contact.

The guy with the afro is named Zhou Hao, and the cold-faced boy is named Gu Yu. They are not the prospective candidates who were squeezed out by Fang Jin. They are the seed candidates of the third preparatory class this year and have already obtained the quota to go to the core level.

Clearly, Du Wei intended to give Fang Jin a hard time. The preparatory class members were furious, but they were basically instigated by him to step forward, and even two of the already selected students managed to sneak in.

However, both the ancient jade's ice seal and Zhou Hao's erratic behavior were instantly broken and eliminated by Fang Jin. The ice on the ground had already vaporized at some point, and even the ice on the five fools' bodies had disappeared.

"this……"

Those around them were stunned, but the next moment, Fang Jin's figure disappeared from their sight. When he reappeared, the black hand was already on the academy principal's cigar, and he gently squeezed it out.

...This time, even Du Wei was caught off guard.
