Make me leave the team? My beast girl and I can win easily.

Wujiang Vocational and Technical College with Extraordinary Abilities.

Lin Yu was unaware that his team's five consecutive record-breaking performances in the "Twin Wastelands" had already caused a huge stir in the top university circles of China.

At this moment, he was sitting on a bench, taking stock of his gains from completing five runs of "Twin Wastes".

Lin Xue and Lin Ya sat on either side of him, each holding one of his arms.

Lin Ya was alright; the little girl had nothing, so she just hugged her.

Lin Xue was completely different. The touch on her arm, mixed with the unique fragrance of a young girl, made Lin Yu's heart flutter.

The all-purpose pouch he was holding was stuffed with all sorts of materials and equipment.

What Lin Yu cared about most were the four perfect-quality pieces of equipment that dropped from the "Twin Wastes".

First, there was a pair of double armor boots, dark gray in color, with a rock-like texture on the surface.

【Name】Iron Iron Heavy Boots

[Quality] Perfect

[Level] 20

[Physical Defense] 48

[Magic Defense] 42

[Additional Attributes] Constitution +10, Health +300, Health Regeneration Rate +5%, Movement Speed ​​+10%

【被动技能】踏地震击：移动时有5%概率触发「震地」效果——对周围10米内敌人造成50%物理攻击力的伤害，并附加1秒眩晕。冷却时间：10秒。

【Durability】100/100

These boots suit Lin Xue well and can significantly improve her attributes.

Moreover, the "stomp shock" feature that comes with the boots is quite interesting—

Although the trigger rate is low, once triggered, it can cause area damage and stun.

For those in the front row, this is an additional way to control the situation.

There was also a pair of leather gauntlets, dark black with dark gold patterns on the surface.

【Name】Shadow Hunter Gauntlets

[Quality] Perfect

[Level] 20

[Physical Defense] 32

[Magic Defense] 28

[Additional Attributes] Agility +7, Strength +5, Critical Hit Rate +3%, Attack Speed ​​+10%

[Passive Skill] Shadow Strike: There is a 10% chance to trigger the "Shadow Strike" effect when attacking - this attack ignores 50% of the target's defense.

【Durability】100/100

These hand guards suit Lin Ya.

The Heavy Cannon Destroyer's basic attack speed is too slow, which affects the attack frequency and results in insufficient cooldown reduction.

Any equipment that increases attack speed can be used without thinking.

There was also a pair of cloth leg armor, dark blue, made of a soft yet durable material.

【Name】Scholar's Trousers

[Quality] Perfect

[Level] 20

[Physical Defense] 20

[Magic Defense] 25

[Additional Attributes] Spirit +7, Magic Power +5, Mana +200, Health +100, Mana Regeneration Speed ​​+10%

[Passive Skill] Surge of Wisdom: There is a 10% chance that the skill will not go on cooldown when casting a spell.

【Durability】150/150

These trousers are Lin Yu's equipment, and they can significantly boost his attributes.

He took out trousers directly from his fanny pack and put them on.

The only regret is that Lin Yu was unable to fully utilize the "Wisdom Surge" skill.

His pills are all prepared in advance, so they don't require much cooling.

"Purple Flame Elixir" has no cooldown, only a casting delay.

The only skill that can be used is "Alchemy Furnace Protection".

But a 10% probability...

Lin Yu estimated that in most cases, it was triggered during alchemy.

The last item was a one-handed sword with a slender blade and an all-silver-white body.

【Name】Knight's Longsword

[Quality] Perfect

[Level] 20

[Physical Attack Power] 68

[Additional Attributes] Strength +8, Agility +6, Health +200, Health Regeneration Rate +10%

[Active Skill] Knight's Guardian: Grants a designated ally a shield equal to 100% of the Knight's maximum health. Cooldown: 30 seconds.

This outfit is perfect for Lin Xue, giving her an additional skill to protect her teammates.

When Lin Xue reaches level 20, her health will definitely exceed 5000.

"Knight's Guardian" directly adds a shield of over 5000.

A strong sense of security.

Furthermore, a one-handed sword can be paired with a shield.

Previously, a level 20 excellent shield called "Rock Iron Heavy Shield" was released, which has extremely high defense.

With this one-handed sword, it becomes even more versatile, combining offense and defense.

Unfortunately, Lin Xue and Lin Ya are not yet level 20.

The equipment can only be stored in the universal pouch for now.

In addition, there are 5 Abyssal Crimson Gold, representing 5 level 25 epic quality accessories.

However, the cost of making jewelry is not cheap. It cost 2 yuan to make a fine piece of jewelry for Xia Yue before.

An epic-quality accessory would likely cost 20 to manufacture.

Five items would amount to 1 million.

Lin Yu could only earn that much money by selling a few multi-purpose wallets.

"Master, when are we going to run a dungeon again?" Lin Ya asked, looking up, her dark eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Those five times weren't enough for me!"

Although we just broke the record, in the end, this dungeon wasn't that difficult.

It took less than an hour in total.

No wonder Lin Ya felt unsatisfied—

She hasn't even had a chance to unleash her full potential yet.

"Then let's go run the level 20 normal dungeon," Lin Yu decided. "Let's keep leveling up."

He checked the time; it was a little past three in the afternoon.

"I've now completed all the rewards and records for the level 15 dungeon."

"As long as I level up quickly, I can still break the records for level 25 and level 30 dungeons before the end of the month."

Due to level restrictions in dungeons: the minimum level of the player entering the dungeon cannot be lower than 5 levels of the dungeon level.

The level 20 dungeon requires a minimum level of 15 to enter.

However, pets bound to a party are not subject to this restriction.

After all, pets have no rights; they can be brought in regardless of their level.

So as long as Lin Yu can reach level 25 by the end of the month, the team can go to the level 30 dungeon.

The record-breaking rewards from the level 30 dungeon will certainly not disappoint.

Thinking of this, Lin Yu stood up and led Lin Xue and Lin Ya toward the dungeon entrance.

……

……

Meanwhile, in the capital city, thousands of miles away.

Office of the Director of the Education Division, Department of National Special Abilities Education.

Yang Mu stood in front of Zhang Guowei's desk, holding a newly printed report in his hand.

"Director, the 'Lin Yu Team' has broken another record." He handed over the report.

Zhang Guowei took the report and flipped through it with great interest.

The report details the data from the "Lin Yu Team's" five challenges in the "Twin Wastes":

First time: 7 minutes and 02 seconds

Second time: 6 minutes and 59 seconds

……

Fifth time: 6 minutes and 44 seconds

每次都比前一次快了3-5秒，最终将纪录从7分11秒提升到6分44秒，整整快了27秒。

"Interesting." Zhang Guowei put down the report, a playful smile on his face. "That last 6 minutes and 44 seconds isn't the true strength of Lin Yu's team either."

Yang Mu was taken aback: "Director, you mean...?"

"Look at this time curve," Zhang Guowei said, pointing to the data on the report. "It improves by 3-5 seconds each time, which is very stable."

What does this mean?

Yang Mu thought for a few seconds, then said uncertainly, "Does that mean they...are controlling the pace?"

"That's right." Zhang Guowei nodded. "Their goal has never been the record itself, but only the reward for breaking it."

"If you give it your all every time, you can't guarantee you'll break the record."

Yang Mu was still somewhat shocked.

6分44秒，相比「缥缈」小队的7分09秒，领先了25秒。

Such a huge gap, and it's not even the full strength of Lin Yu's team?

How terrifying must their true strength be?

Seeing that Yang Mu still had doubts, Zhang Guowei simply said, "I've seen too many geniuses."

"The state of giving your all is different from the state of being relaxed and at ease."

He didn't continue explaining, but changed the subject: "Have you read the materials Wang Defa sent?"

"I've seen it." Yang Mu pulled a thin document from the folder. "It's very little. It only contains some basic information about Lin Yu."

"He stayed in the Dawn Squad for a year and a half, and just left the squad a few days ago to form his own 'Lin Yu Squad'."

"As for information about the other members of the team... there is absolutely none."

"This shows that their school doesn't really value this team," Zhang Guowei said. "However, their lack of attention doesn't matter..."

"After all, they are already their students."

"But we must take this seriously now." He tapped the table. "Go to Wujiang City immediately."

Yang Mu immediately stood up straight: "Director, please give your instructions."

"On behalf of our department, let's present an award to Lin Yu's team," Zhang Guowei said. "You can think of any name for the award; it doesn't matter."

"But you should carefully choose what you're rewarded with; that's the most important thing."

He looked at Yang Mu: "Take this opportunity to sound out Lin Yu's opinion and see if he is willing to serve the country."

"We can assure him that once he's willing to join an official organization, we will do everything in our power to nurture him!"

"Resources, mentors, opportunities... we can provide whatever he needs."

Yang Mu nodded emphatically: "Understood. I'll go prepare right away."

"Also," Zhang Guowei added, "be sincere and don't put on airs."

"Such geniuses are often proud and arrogant. The more you use power to suppress them, the more resentful they become."

"You have to win him over with sincerity."

"yes!"

Yang Mu left the office and immediately began arranging his schedule.

Book flights, prepare rewards, devise conversation strategies...

He had a premonition that this trip to Wujiang was of extraordinary significance.

……

……

Principal's Office, Wujiang Vocational and Technical College with Extraordinary Abilities.

Wang Defa is still a little dazed.

He sat behind his desk, holding his phone.

The screen displayed an official letter that had just been sent by the National Education Department—

Letter of commendation for the "Linyu Team" for setting a national record.

The letter was formally worded and solemnly addressed.

This shows that the government departments are serious.

"Lin Yu... Lin Yu..." Wang Defa murmured the name, trying hard to remember.

He finally remembered.

A few days ago, his counselor, Li Yue, reported to him that the second-year Dawn team had kicked out their support player, Lin Yu.

Lin Yu formed her own small team.

He didn't pay much attention at the time—they withdrew voluntarily, and the school couldn't interfere.

Moreover, from the school's perspective, the Dawn Team, as the top team in the second year, kicked out the C-level alchemist and replaced him with a B-level "spiritual medicine master".

This strengthens the team's capabilities.

Wang Defa actually supports this survival-of-the-fittest approach.

But now...

"Broken the national record..."

"Records broken continuously..."

"Leading by such a large margin, completely crushing the geniuses from other top universities..."

Wang Defa felt his worldview was collapsing.

He picked up the landline and dialed the number of his counselor, Li Yue.

"Teacher Li, please come to my office. Right away."

Five minutes later, Li Yue rushed over.

She was in her early thirties, dressed in a well-fitting business suit and wearing thin-rimmed glasses, looking both capable and gentle.

She was Lin Yu's counselor and knew that the child was an orphan and had a difficult life, so she had always cared about Lin Yu.

She often took him to the faculty and staff cafeteria for meals, treating him with her own credit card.

I will also help Lin Yu in any other way I can.

"Principal, you wanted to see me?" Li Yue knocked on the door and came in.

"Teacher Li, please sit down." Wang Defa gestured to the chair opposite him. "I'd like to know about Lin Yu's situation."

"Lin Yu?" Li Yue was taken aback. "What happened to him? Is it because of the Dawn Squad again...?"

"No." Wang Defa shook his head, his expression complicated. "Have you been paying attention to the dungeon leaderboard lately?"

"I've been quite busy lately and haven't been paying much attention," Li Yue answered honestly. "Did something happen?"

Wang Defa sighed and pushed the tablet computer over.

The screen displays the national record lists for the two instances, "Crimson Desert" and "Twin Wastes".

Li Yue took the tablet and glanced at it.

Then, her eyes widened.

What did she see?

The top ten spots on the "Bloody Desert" leaderboard are all occupied by the "Lin Yu Squad".

The top five spots on the "Twin Wasteland" leaderboard are all occupied by the "Lin Yu Squad".

The original record holders have all been pushed to the back.

This includes top teams from prestigious universities such as Kyoto University's "Strong Luck Team" and Tsinghua and Peking Universities' "Ethereal Team".

"This...this is..." Li Yue's hands trembled, and the tablet computer almost fell to the ground.

"It's true." Wang Defa's voice was filled with emotion. "The State Education Department just sent a letter to commend them."

Li Yue stared blankly at the screen, her mind completely empty.

She knew Lin Yu was no ordinary person—

Even when life was tough, this kid stuck to his principles and never wavered.

But she always thought that Lin Yu was only good at support, and his personal strength was limited.

But now...

"Principal, would you like to know about his situation?" she asked with difficulty, coming back to her senses.

"His squad's situation," Wang Defa said. "Didn't he say he formed a squad when he left the team?"

Do you know his teammates?

"I don't know." Li Yue shook her head. "He mentioned to me when he left the team that he was planning to start his own team."

"I also advised him not to rush, to wait a bit, and that I would try to coordinate with the 'Dawn Squad' on his behalf..."

"But he said no, he'd already left the team."

Looking back now, the "Dawn" team must be kicking themselves.

"So he was willing to leave the team because he didn't like the other four..." Li Yue murmured.

She knew that when Lin Yu was in the Dawn Squad, she always worked hard silently but rarely received recognition.

She thought Lin Yu was just a good-natured person who didn't hold grudges.

Now I understand—they didn't care at all.

"Principal, should we call Lin Yu over?" Li Yue asked. "Would you like to talk to him yourself?"

"No rush." ​​Wang Defa waved his hand. "You organize Lin Yu's information so I can familiarize myself with his situation."

"I'll invite him over then."

He said "please," not "call."

Li Yue was stunned again.

The principal is going to personally invite a student?

This treatment...

"Our school has finally produced some promising students." Wang Defa stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the students coming and going on campus. "We must cherish this opportunity..."

"You can never take it too seriously."

His eyes were shining.

"Teacher Li," he turned around, "from now on, Lin Yu's team will be a key focus of our school's development program."

"All resources should be prioritized for them."

"Whatever they need, as long as the school has it, we'll give it to them."

"If the school doesn't have it... I'll try to get it."

Li Yue nodded emphatically: "Understood!"

She left the office with light steps.

He had only one thought in his mind: Lin Yu has finally made it.

No, he didn't achieve it through sheer hard work.

He earned his place through sheer skill and hard work.
