"It's not posted yet, of course, it's blank. Such a fuss over nothing," one member of the Frostwind Team said sarcastically.
"You have to understand, brother. They're afraid of getting low point rewards and losing face," another teammate chimed in.
"I heard their mission was really difficult, maybe the points are actually pretty high," someone said.
"You also heard, right? Just like I heard our boss slayed a dragon," another added.
A group of Frostwind Team members were discussing, their eyes occasionally darting in Lin Tian's direction; their target of mockery was unmistakably Lin Tian.
Li Wenfeng smiled meaningfully and then said to Lin Tian, "Brother Lin Tian, I'm sorry, young people tend to speak impulsively sometimes."
Lin Tian smiled indifferently and said, "Mr. Li, you're overthinking. I haven't read much, I can barely understand English, let alone beast language, and dog language even less."
"Pfft..." Xiao Manxue found his words amusing, almost bursting into laughter, barely containing herself. She thought that this bastard's words were as infuriating as always.
Of course, the Frostwind Team members understood Lin Tian's words; it was a jab at them. Instantly, they all glared angrily, seemingly ready to turn the scene into a martial arts movie.
Li Wenfeng's expression also turned sour. He pretended to be nonchalant, putting his hands behind his back and said no more.
Not long after, a middle-aged teacher walked in, and the onlookers all eagerly awaited, knowing that the point rewards for this hunting mission were about to be announced.
The announcement of point rewards always caused quite a stir in both academies. There were spectators, enviers, and those jealous, but more so, it triggered a new wave of "gifting," which was actually a trading frenzy.
Those with fewer points didn't find them very useful, so they naturally exchanged them with those who needed them. Those with more points wanted to exchange for even more valuable items.
Amidst great anticipation, the male teacher pasted the scroll made of parchment onto the bulletin board. Students swarmed forward, eager to see it, and the Frostwind Team couldn't stop them even if they wanted to.
Their wrath couldn't be dared to provoke. No matter how much they glared, the students still pressed forward incessantly. Those who didn't push had no choice, because the people behind would push them along. Since the students here were all cultivators, they had strength incomparable to ordinary people. When everyone pushed together, not even Li Wenfeng could stand firmly.
The male students were fine, but the female students had it tougher. Although many girls at the academy were tomboys, being squeezed between boys was still taking advantage.
Lin Tian used his hands to protect Miss and Zhu Li. With his strength, he stood firm and immovable, and nobody could push him. The two girls felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Amid the crowd, Lin Tian felt someone pressing against his back, seemingly propelled forward. From the soft sensation, he could tell that the person behind him was clearly a woman, because the woman's bosom was compressing against his back.
The woman tried several times to make space but failed, as there were just too many people behind.
"Lin... Lin Tian, help me..." a familiar voice of the woman sounded.
Yuwen Luofei? Hearing this voice, Lin Tian was taken aback. How did she get pushed over here? Wasn't Li Wenfeng being useless? Or did she originally intend to escape Li Wenfeng's harassment? But since the beauty asked for help, Lin Tian, being a gentleman, naturally had no reason to refuse.
He wrapped an arm around Yuwen Luofei's slender waist, and with a slight push of his arm, he easily made space around them. Then, with a firm pull, he brought Yuwen Luofei to his front.
Lin Tian went from having two women in front to three, all of whom were acquaintances. Under the protection of Lin Tian's arms, the three women exchanged glances, their faces slightly flushed.
A few meters away, Li Wenfeng happened to see this scene, his face immediately turning frosty. Seeing Lin Tian and Yuwen Luofei so close, his eyes flickered with a dangerous glint.
After all, Yuwen Luofei was his fiancée, yet she was in another man's arms. As a man, he couldn't help but be angry, even if this was just an accident.
But, was this really just an accident? Li Wenfeng knew very well that as Yuwen Luofei's fiancé, he hadn't even held Yuwen Luofei's hand. Yet, in this crowded situation, Yuwen Luofei didn't accept his protection, which made him feel very frustrated.
"Yuwen Luofei, one day, my Li Family will swallow your Yuwen Family. Let's see if your Yuwen Family can still keep that arrogance," Li Wenfeng thought dangerously.
The scene was hot and bustling. Amid the pushing and shoving, the bulletin board notice was hard to see. Suddenly, there was a scream from the crowd.
The teacher posting the notice thought someone was being trampled, quickly turned back, and shouted, "Why are you pushing? Everyone, be quiet. If you keep pushing, I'll tear this notice down!"
The teacher's strength was formidable, and his shout exuded authority, immediately calming the scene. The students were also afraid he would actually tear it down.
Once the crowd stopped pushing, everyone finally had a chance to look at the notice. Then, shouts of surprise continuously rang out, just like that fellow student earlier.
"Quick... quick, help me see if I'm mistaken?" a student pointed at the notice, trembling a bit.
"You're not mistaken, it's five thousand points. The team led by Li Wenfeng completed the mission, and he got a reward of five thousand points, the highest record in recent years!"
"Damn, that's five thousand points. I'll never accumulate that many in my life!"
"You kid still dream of five thousand points. I think fifty points are more suitable for you."
"Fifty my ass, he doesn't even have five points."
"My God, how is there such a huge gap between people?"
...
The notice clearly showed the names of all members of Li Wenfeng's team and the point rewards each person received. Li Wenfeng stood prominently at the top, far ahead of the other team members. Because the second in command of this team, the deputy leader, only received eight hundred points.
By previous standards, eight hundred was already the best. In recent years, the highest record had been Li Wenfeng's one thousand points. Of course, now the record had been refreshed by him, turning into five thousand, which is why the academy spectators were so excited.
"See that, this is our Captain Li Wenfeng. He led the team to perfectly complete the mission, earning a reward of five thousand points, breaking the record!" a Frostwind Team member proudly shouted, while the other teammates all held their heads high, looking down at the students present.
With their captain achieving such a high point reward, as teammates, they naturally basked in the glory and had every reason to be proud.
The bulletin board clearly listed the accomplishments of Li Wenfeng's team, how many vampires they killed, and how much useful information and materials they obtained; every item was astonishing to the students.
