Chapter 895: The Nightmare of the Free-For-All-Battle, An Lin

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Earth Immortal Zhi Hu was a man with fine and delicate features, who also appeared to be quite cultured and frail.

However, it was none other than this frail young man who had burst out swearing.

“Remain calm… I have to remain calm no matter what happens…

“As a teacher, I have to be diligent and responsible and react to all types of different situations calmly.”

He wiped the sweat from his forehead before forcing himself to engage in a calm analysis. “A free-for-all battle requires a meeting between both sides and one side must make a formal self-introduction before a battle commences. An Lin had used his consciousness to materialize projections, which is a little dodgy, but it can still be counted as him appearing before all of his opponents, so it shouldn’t be a violation against the rules…

“Furthermore, in the free-for-all battle, students are prohibited from banding together to attack one person. Even though all one hundred and twenty-six students had fought An Lin at once, they didn’t know that anyone else was also fighting him, so it can’t be considered banding together to attack one person…”

His lips were already twitching as he made this analysis. The students hadn’t even managed to touch An Lin, so of course they hadn’t banded together to attack him! They had just been instantly steamrolled!

Zhi Hu took a deep breath before pulling out his tally chart and recording what had just transpired.

“Among the one hundred and twenty-six students, there was one who managed to survive by conjuring up a suit of golden light armor, and An Lin didn’t initiate another attack against said student…

“This must be quite a powerful student too to be able to survive one of An Lin’s attacks…”

With this in mind, he began to write:

[Wu Zong: Combat Capability: 103, Achievement Score: 0]

“I don’t even know how to evaluate An Lin. Just that one attack of mass destruction is something far beyond what I am even capable of! Should I just approximate some values for now?” Zhi Hu scratched his head frantically. He was both confused and frustrated, but in the end, he still wrote something down.

[An Lin: Combat Capability: 2000, Achievement Score: 1850]

He then began recording the names of the students that had been eliminated.

[Qiu Luotao: Combat Capability: 0, Achievement Score: 0]

[Xu Zimo: Combat Capability: 0, Achievement Score: 0]

[Rong Le: Combat Capability: 0, Achievement Score: 0]

…

He scribbled down a series of zeroes and suddenly felt extremely sorry for these students. All of them had been insta-killed before even being able to tally up any points. How could An Lin be so cruel?

Earth Immortal Zhi Hu hadn’t even finished recording all the donuts when another burst of anguished cries erupted several kilometers away.

His divine sense had been unleashed the whole time, and he had been observing everything constantly. Therefore, he immediately figured out what was going on, and his hands began to tremble involuntarily.

Again? What the f*ck?! I haven’t even finished recording the first batch of donuts yet and now you’ve sent another hundred my way?

Zhi Hu drew a sharp intake of breath before silently pulling out his voice transmission talisman.

“Hello, Earth Immortal Zhi Hu. What do you need?” Vice-Principal Yu Hua’s leisurely voice sounded.

Zhi Hu took a deep breath. “I want to report someone using hacks during the free-for-all battle!!!”

Vice-Principal Yu Hua: “…”

On the White Stone Plaza.

A flash of golden light erupted.

The first batch of a hundred and twenty-five eliminated students appeared at the same time, and all of them were lying on the ground in extremely miserable states.

“Huh? Aren’t you Wang Puda from Third Year, First Class? How did you get eliminated so early with your power?” a student whose face was charred black and had hair that had been zapped to resemble a porcupine’s spines exclaimed in shock.

“Cough cough… Don’t remind me. My luck was absolutely terrible. I encountered Senior Student An Lin, so of course I was going to be eliminated!” the brawny Wang Puda lamented.

“Huh? You too? I was also eliminated by God An!” the student with the pitch-black face exclaimed in surprise.

The two of them stared at each other’s charred face, and a peculiar silence ensued.

“Waah… How could Senior Student An Lin be so mean to girls?” A female student applied ointment over her face as she sobbed about her tragic experience.

Soon, all of the students discovered a pattern. Why did everyone look like they had been blasted by lightning?

“Huh? You were done in by An Lin?”

“Holy f*ck! You were also screwed by An Lin?”

“Did we all suffer the same fate?”

“And we all got eliminated at the same time?”

“Could it be…”

All the students stared at each with incredulity. Ten thousand mythological beasts stampeded over their hearts as a thought occurred to all of them. Did Senior Student An Lin drop a large-scale attack on all of them?!

A hundred and twenty-five students had been eliminated all at once, and all of them encountered An Lin at the same time. This meant that they didn’t even get a chance to face their idol in a one-on-one battle before they were defeated…

The despair! The shame! The crushing humiliation…

“Waah… How could An Lin do this… I feel so useless…” One of the more mentally-frail female students immediately broke down in tears.

Many of the other students were beginning to doubt the purpose of their lives. Even though they could be considered as prodigies in their own right, they still couldn’t help but wonder why there was such a large disparity between them.

Right at this moment, another flash of golden light erupted.

Over a hundred more students instantly appeared on the White Jade Plaza.

The first batch of students immediately had their spirits lifted significantly at the sight of their successors, who also looked like they had all been blasted by lightning…

Some were even actively extending greetings. “Hey buddy, you were blasted by Senior Student An Lin, right?”

All the students who were still recovering from being struck by lightning were perplexed. “Yes. How did you know?”

“Haha, what a coincidence! I was also blasted by An Lin!”

“…”

Was this something to be proud of and boast about?

They soon discovered that this really was a point most of the students on the plaza had in common as ninety-nine percent of the students had been blasted into elimination by An Lin! They were all comrades-in-arms!!

The students who had been eliminated due to a series of other reasons stared at this big, harmonious family. They suddenly felt extremely ostracized and left out…

In the southeastern region of the Forest of One-Thousand Peaks.

This place had become an infernal pit for all of the students.

A student who had barely survived being struck by a bolt of lightning using the golden light armor he had conjured up yelled as he ran, warning everyone to leave this area as soon as possible in case they fell prey to the nightmarish An Lin.

Many of the students scoffed at his warning, and they soon arrived on the White Jade Plaza to join this growing family…

There were one or two tenth-stage Dao Body students who managed to survive a bolt of lightning, and they immediately frantically ran for their lives without engaging in any battles. Their first priority was to get out of this southeastern area first.

Thus, news of how An Lin dominated the entire southeastern region of the Forest of One-Thousand Peaks as a bloodthirsty demon slowly spread out…

Zhi Hu’s attempt to report An Lin to Vice-Principal Yu Hua had been rebuked.

Yu Hua explained that An Lin was also a student of The United University of Cultivation, and he was abusing these students with his own ability, so what right did they have to accuse him of using hacks?

If An Lin were to hear this, he would definitely be extremely pleased with Vice-Principal Yu Hua and maybe even gift him a steamer of stuffed buns ignored by Da Bai.

“But principal, this has severely impacted the balance and fairness of the trial!” Zhi Hu argued with grief and indignation.

Vice-Principal Yu Hua chuckled indifferently. “Good! Let’s give each and every one of these arrogant students a wake-up call and show them just how cruel the world of cultivation really is! When they’re students of the university, there will be teachers as well as me to be there to save them, but once they graduate and enter society, they could pay for any arrogance or complacency with their lives. Let’s leave it at that. I’ll have to trouble you to keep recording.”

Vice-Principal Yu Hua ended the voice transmission talisman with this rather philosophical message.

Earth Immortal Zhi Hu’s tears flowed like a river as he frantically scribbled down every student’s name and scribbled donuts next to them… He only wished that he had grown a few more hands!

In the southeastern region of the Forest of One-Thousand Peaks, lightning continued to crash down from the sky.

The anguished cries of students erupted relentlessly.

“Holy f*ck! An Lin is killing them faster than I can record! Is there no one who can stop him?” Earth Immortal Zhi Hu roared with grief and indignation.
