Chapter 183: Chapter 158: Breaking the Record Chapter 183: Chapter 158: Breaking the Record On the outskirts of town, Captain Wang was leading his team in setting up a blockade to prevent any fugitives from escaping.
Just then, a Bronze High Stage team member who had been keeping watch ahead hurriedly ran over.
“Captain!”
Captain Wang frowned and said, “Xu Ruo, weren’t you observing the battle up front?
Why did you come back directly?”
The team member named Xu Ruo took a couple of breaths, showing a look of surprise, and said, “Captain, we’re about to win!”
“About to win?
What do you mean?
It’s been less than half an hour.
Did they really manage to kill all the members of the Micro Light Secret Society?”
The other team members also looked puzzled at Xu Ruo.
Hadn’t it only been over twenty minutes?
“Almost…
almost there!” Xu Ruo took another breath.
“Although they haven’t dealt with all of them yet, they’ve killed three already.
There’s only one left!”
“Really?!” Captain Wang was also pleasantly surprised and immediately asked, “Which one is left?”
Xu Ruo looked slightly embarrassed and said, “The one left is the target assigned to the two Wanzhou Academy students.”
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this and didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Normally, this wouldn’t be an issue.
No matter how long the battle took, as long as the target was eventually killed, it was a success.
Besides, the two Wanzhou students were only at Silver Early Stage, while their opponent was Silver Middle Stage.
Successfully completing the task was good enough.
But comparisons are unavoidable.
Now, the other three Bronze Level members had already handled three Silver High Stage targets.
Wanzhou Academy’s two Silver Level against one Silver Middle Stage hadn’t been resolved yet.
“The top geniuses of the Three Capitals Academy are really like monsters…” Captain Wang sighed, then called out to the people behind him, “Let’s go and take a look.”
“Yes, Captain!”
…
By the time Captain Wang arrived at the Morning Star Building, the battle had just ended.
Ma Long and Pan Jin were tidying up the corpse of the burly man.
While Su Yuan, Luo Bingtong, and Xiang Dingkun stood quietly on the side.
“What a pity, we couldn’t pick up another one.”
Su Yuan shook his head silently.
If Pan Jin and Ma Long had been unable to handle their opponent, he and Luo Bingtong could have rightfully stepped in to take over.
However, Pan Jin and Ma Long were also students of Wanzhou Academy.
With their close cooperation, they managed to defeat the burly man even though it was a tough fight.
Xiang Dingkun was occasionally glancing at Luo Bingtong, who had just released her Ice Soul Transformation.
With short silver hair and blue eyes, she stood quietly beside Su Yuan, showing no emotion.
“I didn’t expect that beside Ji Xuan and Wen Chenwei from Demon City, Demon Capital Academy also had a genius of this caliber.
This girl’s displayed strength is at my and Zhu Hongchi’s level.
It looks like the Elite Exchange Competition between the Three Capitals in a couple of months might not be as dull as I thought…”
Xiang Dingkun originally believed that the Elite Exchange Competition would be another battle between the Capitol City and Demon City academies as usual.
But now, with this silver-haired girl, Demon Capital Academy also had some competitive power.
As for Su Yuan beside him, despite having mastered a flying skill, he didn’t catch Xiang Dingkun’s attention otherwise.
With the target subdued, Su Yuan and the others exchanged a few words with Captain Wang and handled the aftermath before preparing to depart.
The recent presence of the Micro Light Secret Society had put a lot of pressure on the Yixing City Guard.
Now that the big problem was solved, Captain Wang naturally invited everyone to stay for a meal.
However, Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong, who were in the middle of a trial, directly refused.
Xiang Dingkun also disliked such social gatherings and left as well.
Ma Long and Pan Jin, on the other hand, happily stayed.
Although it was just a meal, besides the academic points reward from the academy, for particularly troublesome cases, the local City Guard might also offer extra rewards, which would be discussed during the meal.
Usually, these additional rewards weren’t anything special.
Considering that students from Capitol City and Demon City were regarded as outsiders, the Wanzhou students, Pan Jin and Ma Long, were seen as locals.
If there were any better rewards, they would be prioritized for these two.
The hunting trials continued…
With a better understanding of Luo Bingtong’s strength, the two worked together even more seamlessly.
For each mission, Su Yuan tried to select tasks involving at least two Silver Level fugitives.
With the strength of Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong, ordinary Silver levels were no longer a threat to them.
It was difficult to overwhelm them with numbers unless they encountered five or more Silver opponents at once.
During this period, the only tricky task they faced was from the military, targeting a Silver Middle Stage fugitive who had awakened a Blue Soul Card.
This single fugitive alone was worth nearly a hundred academic points!
A Blue Soul Card Star Card Master corresponded to a Master Grade Star Beast.
Not only did they have stronger talent and blue skills but their six-dimensional attributes were also higher than those of Green Soul Card Star Card Masters.
Their strength was at least one or two levels higher!

At Moyang Peak, even after Su Yuan activated his Yellow Flame State, he was still suppressed by the Silver Master’s Golden Armored Sword Dragon Beast and Red-striped Winged Divine Bird, only managing to hold his own with various high-level skills.
Later, in a critical situation, he had to activate the White Flame State to save Huang Xiang, gaining an overwhelming power boost to kill the two beasts in one strike.
But with Luo Bingtong present this time, they managed to surround and kill this Blue Soul Card Star Card Master with just the Great Sun Burning Body·Yellow Flame state and Luo Bingtong’s Second Stage Transformation.
Time swiftly moved to the end of February, marking the end of the month-long trials.
After completing their tasks in Yixing City, Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong completed seven more tasks, earning 814 academic points.
Adding the points from the previous two tasks, they collected a total of 1038 academic points for nine tasks!
The final trial results were announced at ten on the last day:
“1st Place: Su Yuan, Luo Bingtong: 1038 points”
“2nd Place: Ye Qing, Xiang Dingqian: 612 points”
“3rd Place: Xia Yue, Shang Baiyu: 441 points”
“4th Place: Zhang Tai, Du Tao: 366 points”
“5th Place: Mu Qingyu, Lu Yingying: 325 points”
…
Zhang Tai: “Damn, Su Yuan and his group added another 112 points on the last day, now they have over a thousand points!”
Shang Baiyu: “More than double our score!”
Du Tao: “More than a thousand academic points… in one month, they earned what others make in two to three years.
Are they even human?”
Xiang Dingqian: “Indeed, the gap is too large.”
Xia Yue: “Forget it.
You guys shouldn’t compare yourselves to Su Yuan, that monster.”
…
The entire class was abuzz, treating Su Yuan like a monster.
Even the second-place team of Xiang Dingqian and Ye Qing, with very high scores, was still more than four hundred points behind Su Yuan’s team!
Although Su Yuan told everyone that Luo Bingtong played a significant role in earning that many points,
they didn’t quite believe it.
In fact, in combat, Luo Bingtong’s contribution was nearly seventy percent, surpassing Su Yuan’s.
She obeyed Su Yuan’s every command with strong execution, making her a top-tier partner in both routine tasks and intense battles.
Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong’s impressive achievement of over a thousand points not only surprised the students in the trial but also the class teachers like He Yanan, and other teachers aware of the trial results.
The Demon Capital Academy had held so many hunting trials, with the highest score being 824 points.
This time, Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong managed to get 1038 points!
They didn’t just break the historical record but also exceeded it by over two hundred points!
…
After resting overnight in the city where their last task was, Su Yuan led Luo Bingtong back early the next morning.
Throughout the month, they fought numerous battles and had a lot of feelings and insights to settle down.
Plus, after earning more than a thousand points, Su Yuan planned on cultivating intensely to quickly advance to the high stage in the Star Mist Pool.
But no sooner had Su Yuan returned to Demon Capital, right from the airport, he received a message from Situ Qingyin.
When Su Yuan opened the message, a wave of intense joy and anticipation surged through him.
His blue longsword had been completed!
