Sensing the strong smell of gunpowder in the air, Lin Duo and Lin Huan quietly shielded Lin Yu in front of them.

However, Lin Yu still affectionately patted Lin Qing's head and put the necklace on her.

"Thank you, Master!" Lin Qing rushed over and hugged Lin Yu. "Master is the best!"

That wretched green snake!

She actually succeeded!

Lin Xue seemed to be deep in thought.

Lin Ya angrily pulled out a bag of potato chips.

Lin Shan looked extremely regretful, hating herself for not seizing this opportunity.

Lin Yu helplessly hugged Lin Qing and looked at Lin Huan: "Huan'er, you are a non-combat profession, you don't need this kind of equipment."

"I'll give it to you when I find a suitable gift later."

"Huan'er understands." Lin Huan nodded obediently, "Huan'er only cares about Master's happiness."

Yao Fei stood not far behind, watching the scene before him, and his gaze went completely blank as he heard the beast girls address Lin Yu.

No, these beautiful girls are all calling him "master"?

Is this young man playing such fancy tricks?

Why does it feel like my carefully crafted necklace has become part of their play?

Yao Fei was filled with envy, only regretting that he was too old.

Otherwise, he would at least try out this new way of playing.

Now that the necklace had been distributed, Lin Yu expressed her gratitude to Yao Fei.

At the same time, he took out 5 rare refining materials from his [Space Bracelet] and gave them to the other party.

These all "fell" from that reckless hunter team.

Yao Fei declined at first, but eventually accepted it.

"Young friend Lin, if you need any more good materials in the future, feel free to come to me!" He patted his chest and assured him, "My weapon-refining skills will absolutely satisfy you!"

After saying goodbye to Yao Fei, the group returned to school.

It was already 1 p.m. when the van entered Wujiang Vocational College.

At this time, the new semester had officially begun, and Lin Yu had moved up to the third grade.

As he led the beast girls back to their dormitory from the parking lot.

It's obvious that the atmosphere is different today.

At this time of day, students would either leisurely go to class, sit in twos and threes chatting on benches, or do morning exercises on the training field.

In short, the pace was very relaxed.

But today, many people are running.

"Quickly, the exclusive quest instance is about to open!"

"Brother Zhang, wait for me! My shoe fell off!"

"Never mind that, getting a good spot is the priority! If we're late, we won't be able to find a team for the joint challenge!"

"Holy crap, is this for real?! Then I don't want my shoes anymore!"

Many third-grade students were seen sprinting towards the school's secondary area as if in a race.

Lin Yu then remembered.

After students move up to the third grade, the school will implement a "points-based competition" system.

Each third-grade team will receive three exclusive mission dungeon reward opportunities per week.

The dungeons are divided into three difficulty levels: Elite, Hard, and Nightmare. Points are awarded based on the difficulty level of the dungeon you clear.

Points determine the team's ranking, and ranking determines resource allocation.

These resources include drug quotas, equipment rewards, and opportunities for one-on-one guidance from renowned external teachers.

More importantly, the Hard and Nightmare difficulty levels allow two teams to team up for a challenge.

The reward points are also split equally between the two teams.

If a small team has weaker damage output but strong support and control, then teaming up with a high-damage team will greatly increase the chances of clearing the dungeon.

So every year on the first day of school, third-grade students rush to the dungeon area like they've been injected with chicken blood.

They're trying to secure a good position and find a strong team partner with complementary strengths.

Even luckier players managed to latch onto a powerful ally and snag a bunch of free points.

However, for Lin Yu's team right now, this points race is no challenge at all.

With their team's strength, they could easily solo Nightmare mode in less than half an hour by going there occasionally.

"Master, are we going to run a dungeon?" Lin Duo asked, tilting her head up with curiosity in her eyes. "They all seem to be in a hurry..."

"No rush," he waved his hand. "We have a week, plenty of time."

He said it casually, but a third-grade boy who happened to be passing by heard it.

I stumbled and almost fell.

"Dude, are you serious?" The boy turned around and looked at Lin Yu like he was an alien. "Do you know how many people would spend 24 hours a day grinding in dungeons just to succeed once?!"

Lin Duo: "...What does '凹' mean?"

"It's about trying repeatedly, taking your chances, and seeing if you can get lucky and succeed once!" The boy was somewhat distressed to see that Lin Duo didn't even know such a "popular term." "You should know that there's no limit to the number of times you can fail a challenge. As long as you succeed, you'll get points as a reward."

He pointed towards the dungeon area: "Look at those people, why are they running so fast?"

"Because if you go in a minute earlier, you can try again!"

"Every attempt increases your chances of success!"

The boy spoke animatedly, then patted Lin Yu on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Take my advice, hurry up and get in line."

"Don't wait until tomorrow, there'll be other ways to 'roll' things up tomorrow!"

After saying that, he ran off in a flurry of activity.

Lin Yu stood still and blinked.

"No wonder it's so curly."

After the boy's explanation, he finally understood where this surging crowd came from.

Lin Yu and her group walked against the flow of people for a while before arriving at the boys' dormitory area.

At this time of day, there weren't many people in front of the dormitory building.

Only the dormitory supervisor was sweeping the floor at the entrance.

When she saw Lin Yu walking over with six incredibly beautiful girls, the broom in her hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

The older woman stared wide-eyed at Lin Yu, then at the six girls behind him.

His mouth opened and closed repeatedly, but he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Lin Yu nodded politely: "Hello, Auntie."

"Okay, okay..." the woman replied mechanically, her gaze fixed on Lin Yu's face, her expression indescribably complex.

She hesitated for a moment, but still kindly advised, "Young man, young people... you should be moderate."

Lin Yu: "...Thank you for your concern, Auntie."

He turned around and led the beast girls into the dormitory building.

Behind her, the older woman picked up the broom, shook her head, and sighed, "These young people nowadays...so hot-blooded..."

Inside the dormitory building, several lower-grade boys who were about to leave ran into Lin Yu and her group.

They saw Lin Yu walking ahead, followed by six girls of different styles, all of whom were absolutely stunningly beautiful…

Six!

Six in total!

And they all followed Lin Yu into his small single room!

With a "thud".

Lin Yu closed the door.

The corridor was deathly silent.

A few seconds later, a boy said in a trembling voice, "W-was I seeing things?"

Another boy muttered, "Why? Why does he get six of them all by himself!"

"And...they're all so beautiful!"

The third boy lamented, "It's like some are dying of thirst while others are drowning in floods..."
