You call this a healer?

There are just too many smart people!

Zhou Ming and Lin Ya sat on a stone stool to the side, their hands tucked into their sleeves, silently watching a group of "super-intelligent" beings drag the strange corpse.

Lin Ya nodded with deep feeling: "Yes, the infighting among the Orderers is simply outrageous. If you achieve even a little success, others will immediately rush to imitate and try. If you are even slightly different, others will immediately strip you bare!"

"But no one else can copy you. I've been here for so long, and I still don't have your creative talent!"

Zhou Ming remained silent. How do you copy this thing?

The "dialogue bubble" is a partial cheat, and the "Godslayer" class is also a partial cheat. I'm currently basically using a full cheat.

No one else can learn this!

He paused for a moment, then asked, "Where's Lao Lü? He was just here a moment ago."

Lin Ya chuckled: "Last time you challenged Ye Chen to a duel in the mangrove forest, he bet all his savings on you and accurately predicted that you would lose. Many people followed suit, including me and Zhong Xiu. As a result, not only did he lose everything, but we also had to eat coarse food. Later, he was hunted down by many people."

This time, for the monthly exam, he borrowed money at high interest rates, betting again that your score wouldn't reach 100, and he lost it all again. Now he gets upset whenever he sees you!

Zhou Ming laughed heartily: "This old bastard's going head-to-head with me, and I'm speechless!"

Lin Ya said, "I'm really upset when I see you now. How could you possibly get 800 points? I'm having nightmares every night, always feeling like you're cheating on me with Zhong Xiu!"

Zhou Ming waved his hand: "Let's keep things separate. I'm not afraid to tell you, there are too many supernatural phenomena. I'm afraid Qing Xuanxiang won't be able to hold on and will rush out to fight alone. In that case, the two of you will definitely die!"

Lin Ya suddenly realized, "I see. You're right. With our energy depleted, we don't even have the right to stay in the courtyard. How could we dare to go out and solo? Zhou Ming, you really are a genius."

He gritted his teeth and said, "How about we arrange a marriage?"

Zhou Ming was taken aback: "I treat you as a friend, and you're just after my body?"

Lin Ya quickly explained, "That's not what I meant. I just felt you needed resources, and my family can help you."

Zhou Ming frowned: "Wait a minute, I've been wanting to ask you this for a while: since your family has no shortage of resources or money, what are you doing here?"

Lin Ya narrowed her eyes: "Our Lin family's Order Keepers have died one after another in battle over the years, and our numbers have dwindled. As a result, many resources have been diverted to other families, and we have gradually weakened. I am now the only hope for our family."

However, water-type mages have weak basic offensive capabilities, so I need to hone my skills in the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss'. But to go to the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss', I must first comprehend the 'Divine Eight Desolations Diagram' left by the old dean, otherwise I will surely die if I enter!

To gain enlightenment from the "Divine Eight Desolations Diagram," one must understand a sufficient number of divine characteristics. This was the path I prepared for in advance during high school, which is why I came to the Furnace Academy on my very first day!

"etc!"

Zhou Ming waved his hand to interrupt, "There's a lot of information here. What's this 'Hidden Dragon Abyss'? What's this 'Divine Eight Desolations Map'? And divine characteristics?"

Lin Ya patiently explained: "If you're not a combat profession, your teacher won't tell you. This 'Hidden Dragon Abyss' is a bottomless cave, and it's also the place where the divine beings first appeared. There are eleven of them in our East China Sea base."

The main cave is located below the State Council building. The other ten branch caves are located in ten different universities. One of them is in our Baijiang College, in the northwest corner of the campus, and it is guarded by dedicated personnel.

Although there are no longer any divine phenomena within this "Hidden Dragon Abyss," there are ancient patterns that remain. Once someone gets close, these divine phantoms will appear and attack.

These mystical phantoms are ancient deities, originally belonging to the aristocratic class. Their offensive power is terrifying, far surpassing the later-born agricultural deities of the wasteland. Moreover, each layer is more terrifying than the last. As long as the Order Keepers can withstand them, they can hone powerful combat skills and abilities.

By the way, do you know about the Dragon List?

Zhou Ming nodded: "I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it!"

Ye Chen once said that Chen Guiqi's older brother, Chen Guixian, was a master on the Dragon List, ranked 27th.

Lin Ya said, "The Dragon Ranking is not based on challenges or duels, as many people are not interested in one-on-one fights. Instead, it is based on the level of the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss' that people have reached. The top-ranked senior, 'Thor,' has already reached the 226th level."

Later, the sparring among the top experts on the Dragon Ranking completely proved that the higher the level of the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss,' the more powerful the techniques. At the same level, the experts on the Dragon Ranking are definitely much stronger. Do you believe it or not, even if an expert on the Dragon Ranking is at the same level as you, they might still be able to break through your defenses?

Before venturing into the "Hidden Dragon Abyss," there is a prerequisite: to comprehend the "Divine Eight Desolations Diagram" left behind by the old dean. It is said that the diagram contains many abilities that can counter the mystical power of the "Hidden Dragon Abyss." The stronger the ability you comprehend, the more levels you can conquer in the "Hidden Dragon Abyss." If you encounter a bottleneck later in your journey, such as being stuck on a certain level, you can re-comprehend the "Divine Eight Desolations Diagram."

I have low comprehension. Last time when the "Divine Eight Desolations Map" was opened, I was completely clueless. So I can only come to the Furnace Courtyard to learn more about the characteristics of the divine corpses.

"If only you were a combat class, the 'Divine Eight Desolations Map' would open the day after tomorrow, and we could go for enlightenment together, then try venturing into the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss'!"

Zhou Ming nodded, surprised that such a thing had happened.

After that, he said goodbye to Lin Ya and asked her to pass on a message to Lao Lü: I won't be coming again. After spending so much time together, I wish you lose again next time!

……

They left the Burning Furnace Courtyard.

Zhou Ming's mind began to wander. Should he venture into the "Hidden Dragon Abyss"?

Where are the hammer-forging combat techniques and skills located?

No, he sees things from a different perspective. What place to hone "combat skills"? Those strange patterns in the Hidden Dragon Abyss, if they can be devoured, wouldn't that be the next place to "secretly develop"?

However, one must first comprehend the mysterious "Divine Eight Desolations Map" that is considered supernatural!

Okay, let's set a goal first, and try it the day after tomorrow.

As soon as I returned to the dormitory gate, a group of people came to greet me. The girl in the lead was graceful, with bright eyes and white teeth, and had a unique temperament. She was none other than my childhood friend Xie Lingyuan.

It was just that a group of people were looking at them strangely.

Zhou Ming was taken aback: "When did Ling Yuan return?"

Xie Lingyuan blinked and handed over a small gift box: "Yesterday. You've been so popular these past two days, the hottest person in the entire East China Sea base. I waited until midnight last night but didn't see you, and I waited for you for a long time this morning. These are senior students who also wanted to meet you!"

"polite!"

Zhou Ming took the gift box, glanced at the group of people behind Xie Lingyuan, and said, "How about we sit in the dorm?"

Everyone nodded.

When they arrived at room 405, their three roommates were not there. Since no one wanted to sit on the bed, they had to stand.

On the only table at that moment, there was a dazzling array of nutritional supplements, pills, flying meat, injections, and so on, with a sign next to it that read: "Zhou Ming's Special Supply".

It must be a special subsidy that the school just sent over.

A group of upperclassmen stared in disbelief, especially Song Zhishu, who exclaimed, "It's true what they say, comparisons are odious! Their resource allocation is far superior to ours!"

A senior student with freckles shook her head and said, "This year, four geniuses emerged from the freshmen, and they were also the first to enter the Level Two Order: Ye Chen, Bai Muwan, Feng Qi, and Zhou Ming. They all enjoy tuition reductions and unlimited resource supply."

But to everyone's surprise, Zhou Ming was an auxiliary healer, and the only one to have achieved the highest rank, which was truly unbelievable.

This is unprecedented since the school was founded!

Zhou Ming ignored their words, looked at the things on the table, and frowned. He had tried it before. These things were quite considerable for other Orderers, but they were almost useless to him because they were not worthy of the genetic strength of the "Godslayer" profession and the "Healer" profession that he was feeding back. In addition, he was already a level three "Godslayer", so the effect was about zero.

Exchange money!

He looked at everyone and said, "I'm selling it to you all, but for Lingyuan's sake, it'll be 30% off!"

Everyone looked at each other.

Xie Lingyuan chuckled: "These only apply to those below level three of the Order; they're useless against us. Our resources come from other things!"

Zhou Ming nodded; it seemed the only option was to sell it to Liang Bucheng and his group.

At this moment, Xie Lingyuan took a serious look at him. It was a look of amazement and unfamiliarity. He had thought he had a novice support class "little brother" to take care of, but the brilliance of this "little brother" was so dazzling that it hurt his eyes.

"The upperclassmen have been studying you since last night!"

With the talent of a creator, he possesses two amazing skills. He once single-handedly led three roommates with inferior professions to defeat five combat professions in the mangrove forest.

Next, you fought Ye Chen, a mage with the talent of lightning. He couldn't break through your defense and was eventually paralyzed by your Silver Ring Grass!

In the monthly exam, he scored 800 points, ranking third in the city and breaking the Baijiang College record and the legendary single-kill record for support profession!

Zhou Ming, I'm truly impressed! I never even dared to dream of this before!

Song Zhishu and her group also put aside their senior status and asked, "Junior Zhou Ming, could you explain your insights? Besides the talent of the creator, are there any others?"

Zhou Ming lowered his head and thought for a moment: "I can't really explain it. Maybe that's what genius is—never being bound by a profession!"

Xie Lingyuan, Song Zhishu, and their group stood there, speechless. Arrogant people are annoying, but this kind of boundless arrogance is quite interesting.

Zhou Ming countered Xie Lingyuan's question: "When are you planning to go out this time?"

Actually, for the next step in cultivation, I could try going out with this group. I don't know where they went, but they could find the survivors and hone their skills. It's obviously not as simple as the wasteland outside the city.

Xie Lingyuan, Song Zhishu, and their group shook their heads: "We're not leaving this time. We're coming back to comprehend the 'Divine Eight Desolations Map,' venture into the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss,' and enter the Dragon Ranking in one fell swoop!"

Zhou Ming clapped his hands: "What a coincidence! I'm also planning to try it the day after tomorrow!"

Song Zhishu and his group exchanged glances and couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Although you have great talent and have killed many divine beings using your mutated skills, you are a healer! What kind of support class has ever comprehended the 'Eight Desolate Divine Map' and ventured into the 'Hidden Dragon Abyss'? Never before!"
