Destiny Rekindled

Chapter 132 Qin Chuan: I have a bold idea
The moon was high in the sky. In the empty playground, the light from the spotlight outlined two figures holding knives. Along with the incessant sound of clashing metal, one of them was quickly defeated.

"Twenty-four rounds." Ji Huai's hand holding the knife slowly dropped, and the long knife disintegrated and turned into a metal ring returning to his wrist. "The highest record tonight."

"Hiss--" Qin Chuan rubbed his shoulders with a grin, and couldn't help feeling a little happy when he heard this.

After successfully taking on Ji Huai's attacks for ten rounds, the speed at which his swordsmanship improved seemed to have accelerated. He was able to take on Ji Huai for a few more rounds each time, giving him a feeling of making a little progress every day.

But the next moment, the joy in Qin Chuan's heart disappeared.

"When you can withstand thirty rounds from me, I will no longer use only the long sword as a weapon, nor will I only use basic sword techniques to fight you."

Hearing this, he already felt pain all over his body.

"In two days, it will be the last practical test." Ji Huai glanced at Qin Chuan and suddenly said, "The rules have been slightly changed."

Ok?
Qin Chuan couldn't help but glance at Ji Huai.

A few days ago, Ji Huai had already revealed the rules of the practical assessment to him.

Seeing that the practical assessment is about to begin, why are the rules changed at this time?

"A third-level monster has been added to the assessment area." Ji Huai briefly explained the changes to the actual combat assessment. "I will follow the third-level monster throughout the entire process. If no one kills it after half of the actual combat assessment time, I will kill it."

"All candidates can obtain the location of this third-level monster in real time."

Qin Chuan was silent.

Except for him, no other candidate in Changxing City could deal with a third-level monster.

Then it is easy to guess why this monster appeared here.

Specially prepared for yourself?

"What Team Leader Lan means is that you don't have to show your strength, but you must have the opportunity to show it." Ji Huai said calmly, "We respect your decision and give you a stage."

"Your identity is classified. If you choose to demonstrate your strength, we will use all possible means to ensure that your identity is not disclosed."

"Thank you." Qin Chuan said softly.

Regardless of whether he chooses to kill the third-level monster or not, the third-level monster will eventually be properly dealt with. Its appearance is only to allow him to have a suitable target when he wants to show his strength in the assessment.

To this day, apart from working with him to deal with Erict's Dragon Halberd, no one else in the Special Affairs Group has ever mentioned the identity of "Luo" and his spirit beast that broke through the elite level in front of him. Both sides have a tacit understanding and maintain a relative distance.

Even though the special affairs team showed care for Qin Chuan during the assessment, they never crossed the distance between each other, which made Qin Chuan feel more favorable towards them.

Thinking of the results of his actions in the actual combat assessment, Qin Chuan fell into deep thought.

There is no doubt that as long as he can kill the third-level monster and show strong enough strength, he can easily get an S-level rating, be admitted to university, and obtain additional resources from Yan University.

But the exposure of his strength means that his dream identity will also be exposed.

Looking at Ji Huai standing aside, Qin Chuan's heart moved.

He wanted to hear the other person's opinion.

"Teacher Ji, do you think I should take action?"

"I won't tell you exactly what you should and shouldn't do. I don't like to influence other people's judgment." Ji Huai said calmly, and then paused, "But before you make a judgment, you can think about two questions clearly."

"First, do you think you can keep hiding forever? If not, how long do you think it will take for you to be exposed? If you are exposed in advance, will it be a loss to you?"

"Secondly, if there are losses due to early exposure, can the income from S-rated stocks make up for the losses caused by your early exposure, or even bring higher income?"

"Think about these two questions clearly and you will naturally have the answers." Qin Chuan fell into thought again.

Ji Huai's words were like a ray of hope for him, as he was feeling a little confused at the moment.

His thoughts suddenly became clear.

His dream identity could not be hidden forever. If the Special Affairs Group had not classified his real identity and past experiences as confidential information, he would have been discovered by now.

Don't underestimate the speed and breadth of information dissemination in the Internet age, and don't underestimate the wisdom of others.

Fortunately, at the moment, although he and Yue Li were the first to be promoted to elite players, other players' spirit beasts continued to break through the elite level, distracting the world's attention.

After a while, when his contracted spirit beasts break through to the palace level one after another and other players are unable to break through, he will surely become the target of public criticism.

Not to mention the confidential level, even if his identity information is classified as top secret, a lot of things can be judged from the few traces he left inadvertently in the past.

What's more, he was destined to have such powerful strength in the future but never use it.

Next time, Sundial's third talent will be used. As agreed, he will help Dragon Spear look for special resources, but the next time, he will target the Temple Crystal.

Shuihua, Xue Gao and the third spirit beast that has not yet appeared will break through the palace level one after another.

So after two or three weeks, it became difficult for him to hide.

The purpose of hiding your identity is ultimately to make yourself safer.

Unable to hide it, he had to use the limited time to gain as much power as possible.

From this perspective, being exposed early is not a good thing for Qin Chuan.

But he does need the resource allocation that comes with an S rating.

With the sundial, Qin Chuan will not lack the key resources needed for advancement.

But resources are not just key resources.

After this promotion, the experience gems he and Yueli had combined could only fully equip one spirit beast. Since key resources were acquired too quickly, many basic resources could no longer keep up.

This time, because hunting down the golden talent owner was in line with the plan of the special affairs group, he obtained 10,000 experience gems, which could meet the upgrade requirements. So what about next time?

After being promoted to a palace-level player, how can he fully recruit three palace-level spirit beasts, which consume even more experience, in a short period of time?

If he doesn't max it out, he won't know the advancement requirements for the next stage. Even if he refreshes the third talent of the sundial, he will be in an awkward situation where he has no place to use it temporarily, which will slow down his own strength improvement.

This difficult problem, which many players would never encounter, is already in front of him.

What's more, in addition to experience gems, there are many useful things for him in the resource allocation, such as spirit beast snacks, various undisclosed ways to obtain achievements, information from various areas, cultivation methods, etc.

No one can be a lone wolf forever. Even if there is no wolf pack to make him surrender, he at least needs collaborators.

Thinking of this, a bold idea emerged in Qin Chuan's mind.

If this idea can be successfully implemented, he can not only reduce the risk of exposing his identity in advance, but also successfully obtain an S rating from Yanda.

However, this requires a little cooperation from the Special Affairs Group.

"Teacher Ji, I have an idea..."
