I gain permanent defense when attacked; even gods and demons can't hurt me.

A young man nearby also quickly came over, looking extremely excited.

"I am Li Feng, the mentor's top disciple, a level 68 Storm Mage. Brother Lin, you've truly broadened my horizons today!"

Li Feng glanced cautiously at the small black and gold snake on Lin Yuan's wrist, his voice trembling.

"That dragon just now... was it really your tamed beast? That's truly amazing."

Another female assassin named Su Wan couldn't help but speak up, her tone filled with disbelief.

"Lin Yuan, you've only just completed your second job advancement, yet you not only possess an abnormal defense that ignores lightning tribulations... but you've also cultivated a beast of this caliber. This has completely overturned my understanding."

"If you grow to the same level as your teacher, won't you be able to sweep through this Abyss Battlefield all by yourself?"

Everyone exclaimed in amazement, their words filled with genuine shock at Lin Yuan's strength and the existence of Xiao Hei.

In their eyes, the secrets hidden within this junior who had just completed his second transfer were deeper than the abyss.

Lin Yuan simply maintained a polite smile, occasionally offering a few humble words, without providing any further explanation.

The group sped along and soon returned to the camp.

However, as soon as he stepped into the camp, Lin Yuan keenly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

The entire outpost was brightly lit, and the piercing sound of the highest-level air raid siren echoed through the sky.

Countless fully armed professional soldiers frantically roamed the camp, with all the magic cannons loaded.

The dark, menacing cannons were aimed at the direction of the Burial Ground, creating a tense scene as if facing a formidable enemy.

Chapter 223 Talent Ranking, Considerations for the War Academy

Beside him, a young man quickly came over, his expression extremely excited, his eyes gleaming with fanaticism.

"I am Li Feng, the mentor's top disciple, a level 68 Storm Mage. Brother Lin, you've truly broadened my horizons today!"

Li Feng glanced cautiously at the small black and gold snake on Lin Yuan's wrist, his voice trembling uncontrollably.

"That dragon just now... was it really your tamed beast? It's truly amazing. I don't even have the courage to look it in the eye."

Upon hearing Li Feng's words, another female assassin named Su Wan couldn't help but speak up, her tone filled with disbelief.

She took a deep breath, seemingly still recovering from the immense mental shock brought on by the lightning tribulation and the black dragon.

"Lin Yuan, you've only just completed your second job advancement quest, yet you possess an abnormal defense that ignores lightning tribulations..."

"They even managed to cultivate beasts of this caliber, which completely overturned my understanding and defied common sense."

Su Wan stared intently at Lin Yuan, sighing, "If only you could grow to the same level as your teacher..."

"This vast and dangerous battlefield is going to be swept through by you all by yourself, single-handedly?"

Everyone exclaimed in amazement, their words filled with genuine shock at Lin Yuan's strength and the existence of Xiao Hei.

In their eyes, the secrets hidden within this junior who had just completed his second transfer were more unfathomable than the abyss.

Faced with the crowd's generous praise and amazement, Lin Yuan simply maintained a polite smile.

He occasionally offered a few words of modesty, but did not elaborate on the specifics of his talent or Xiao Hei's background.

The group sped along, traversing the desolate surrounding land, and soon returned safely to the front-line camp.

However, as soon as he stepped into the camp gate, Lin Yuan keenly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.

The entire outpost was brightly lit, and the piercing, highest-level air raid siren wailed through the sky, sending chills down one's spine.

A strong sense of impending doom filled the air as countless fully armed professional soldiers frantically roamed the camp.

They quickly rushed to their respective battle posts, and all the large magic cannons on the city walls were loaded and fully charged.

The dark, menacing cannons were all pointed directly at the direction of the Burial Ground, creating a tense scene as if facing a formidable enemy.

Upon seeing this, Chen Qingxuan frowned and immediately strode towards the camp's highest command post, wanting to find out what was going on.

At this moment, high-ranking military officers were holding an emergency meeting in a conference room, their faces grave.

"General Chen, you've returned just in time!" An adjutant rushed forward to report as Chen Qingxuan entered, "A terrifying lightning tribulation fluctuation just now erupted from the depths of the Burial Grounds."

"That oppressive aura is extraordinary; even the detection array is almost overloaded. It must be some powerful being from the Abyss undergoing tribulation..."

"Everyone is worried that once he successfully overcomes his tribulation, he might turn against our outpost camp..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingxuan coughed twice and immediately waved his hand to stop his adjutant from continuing to mobilize troops.

"Don't worry, there's no need to be so nervous. I was there just now, and it wasn't some Abyss expert undergoing tribulation."

In order to protect Lin Yuan and Xiao Hei's secret from being exposed too early, Chen Qingxuan solemnly fabricated a reason.

"That was a rare and violent collapse of the spatial laws at the bottom of the abyss, which triggered the strange phenomenon of thunder and lightning in the heavens and earth."

Chen Qingxuan said with great certainty, "That chaotic energy has completely dissipated and poses no further threat to us."

Hearing the personal assurance from Chen Qingxuan, a top expert of the human race, the generals in the conference room finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Their hearts finally settled down, and they wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads before issuing the order to retreat.

With the all-clear signal, the soldiers withdrew from their posts in an orderly manner, and the camp returned to its usual tranquility.

That evening, the group rested briefly at the outpost camp, washing away the fatigue from their days of trekking through the abyss.

……

The next morning, the red star unique to the abyss had just risen, illuminating this desolate and bleak battlefield.

Lin Yuan's job change mission has been successfully completed. He packed his bags and prepared to return to the War Academy.

This time, Chen Qingxuan personally saw Lin Yuan off and activated the teleportation array for him.

Before the teleportation array lit up, Lin Yuan waved goodbye to Chen Qingxuan and the others, thanking them for their help on this trip.

As the teleportation array activated, the intense dizziness caused by the spatial shift vanished in an instant. When he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scenery had returned to the War Academy.

Back at the university, Lin Yuan didn't disturb anyone. He followed the familiar tree-lined path straight back to his apartment.

As soon as he entered the room, Lin Yuan sat down on the sofa and couldn't wait to activate the smart bracelet he was wearing on his wrist.

He had something on his mind: he wanted to know what the talent ranking that Chen Qingxuan had mentioned to him was all about.

As a light screen unfolded before his eyes, Lin Yuan directly opened the talent ranking list, and his gaze was immediately drawn to the five dazzling names at the very top.
