The next day, at the school’s South Gate, a group of thirty to forty new students was gathered.

“Uncle, why can’t you let us out?”

“It’s not like we haven’t entered the South Forest a few days ago.”

“That’s right, that’s right. I even killed a few magical beasts that day!”

“We promise we won’t wander off. Please let us out!”

After the course selection competition, the major selection duel was coming. Therefore, many new students wanted to leave the school to gain experience.

Due to the South Forest having weaker magical beasts and their experience in exploring the place, the South Forest became their first and only choice.

However, from early morning until now, more than one group of students had wanted to go out from the South Gate, only to have all been stopped by the guard,

“In the first semester for new students, you don’t have the freedom to enter and exit the school,” At this time, the guard crossed his arms and put on a non-negotiable posture.

Similar situations happened every year, and he was already used to it. Therefore, no matter how the students before him defended themselves or begged, he could not let them out.

No new student was allowed to leave the school unless they were accompanied by a senior student or had the permission of a teacher.

Faced with this situation, some of the new students began to whisper.

“Forget it, let’s not beg this rigid uncle anymore.”

“That’s right, that’s right. I don’t think he’ll let us pass.”

“If I had known this would happen, I would have just climbed over the wall.”

“My roommate just went to do that. Maybe he’s already outside.”

The suggestion of climbing over the wall made everyone’s eyes light up.

[Woof woof!]

However, just as many people were eager to try, they suddenly heard a dog barking behind them.

Everyone turned around and was stunned.

An old dog with long ears that drooped to the ground was walking slowly toward them, and behind the old dog was a row of seven to eight students. They walked with their heads lowered, clearly embarrassed due to their tattered clothes and the obvious bite marks.

“To think you even dared to climb such a high wall. Aren’t the lot of you afraid of falling to your deaths?” Seeing this group of people, the guard at the gate seemed to be in a bad mood.

The school’s walls had the effect of blocking and defending against magical beasts to a certain extent, so it was not easy to climb over. This was especially so for new students who had just become Summoners. Their physical fitness was not necessarily stronger than that of an ordinary person.

They were the epitome of having great ambitions but poor abilities. Even the Earth-hearing Beast, which was not very good at fighting, could easily capture these little guys who struggled to climb over the wall.

[Woof woof!]

The students who were caught would undoubtedly be punished to stand. The Earth-hearing Beast barked at the guard, then dug out an unknown sharp tailbone from the soil at the foot of the guard station’s wall and began to gnaw on it.

This sudden turn of events made all the new students dispel the thoughts that had just risen in their minds. This big dog didn’t seem to be easy to deal with. It seemed that the method of climbing over the wall was not an option anymore.

“Morning, uncle.”

[Cao!]

At this moment, a limping figure with a Scarecrow crossed the crowd.

It was Li Pu, who had just woken up and was ready to go to war again.

Yesterday’s experience at the trading station ignited his fighting spirit, and his goal was very clear. That was to make money.

500,000 crystal coins seemed to be an unattainable astronomical figure, but if he didn’t work hard, it would always be out of reach. The earlier he acted, the earlier he might be able to gather enough money.

What he was most afraid of right now was that the item would be bought by someone else before he had enough money.

“Morning, are you going out again today? Hehehe, you’re really diligent,” Unlike the other new students, the guard was very friendly to Li Pu.

“Yes, do I still need to make a call?” Li Pu nodded.

“No need. Go on then,” The guard waved his hand and let him go.

“Thank you,” Li Pu was happy to be saved from all the trouble.

[Woof woof!] The Earth-hearing Beast saw Li Pu approaching and quickly stood up while wagging its tail.

“I’m off, old dog. Let’s see if I can bring you more goods today,” He reached out his hand and rubbed the dog’s head.

This scene scared the few students who were being punished to stand. Wasn’t he a little too bold? Could this beast’s dog head be touched so casually? Moreover, the name “old dog” was too hurtful, no?!

[Woof woof!]

Unexpectedly, the Earth-hearing Beast enjoyed Li Pu’s pats and squinted its eyes.

“…” The guard was quite speechless at the performance of his summoned beast.

However, Li Pu had given the Earth-hearing Beast its favorite lizard tail last night. Moreover, it was a D-grade lizard tail, which was a great supplement for the beast.

The logic of “whoever feeds one is one’s parent” was vividly reflected in the dog.

“Wait, uncle!” However, at this moment, someone among the new students who were being punished to stand suddenly reacted, “He’s clearly a freshman too. Why is he able to leave?”

The boy knew Li Pu. Rather, they couldn’t possibly not know the person who had obtained various “firsts” among the batch of freshmen. However, even if he came in first, he shouldn’t have special privileges for no reason!

“Him?” Looking at Li Pu’s figure that was already far away, the guard couldn’t help but scoff at the boy’s words, “If you can go to the South Forest alone and bring back the corpse of a level 4 D-grade magical beast, I’ll allow you to come and go as you please in the future.”

Everyone was shocked by his words.

What the hell?

A level 4 D-grade magical beast?

Did this mean that Li Pu had done it before?

Wasn’t that too ridiculous?

…

“What’s going on here?” In the depths of South Forest, Jules, the principal’s assistant, was standing in front of a large rock with a puzzled look on her face.

Although the rock looked ordinary, it was actually an intelligent feeding machine.

Although the little Zen tree needed to be placed in the wild during its infancy, it needed enough nutrients to grow well. So this feeding machine was specially placed here for it by the principal.

From its appearance, it looked like an ordinary stone. However, as soon as it detected the approach of the little Zen tree, it would automatically open up to provide the beast with rich food.

In the beginning, they had spent some effort to secretly guide the little Zen tree to learn this eating pattern. Since then, whenever it was hungry, it would come over to eat and absorb nutrients.

This feeding machine had a complete set of functions. When the ingredients inside were below a certain level, it would send a reminder to the remote end to replenish them.

The task of replenishing the ingredients was done by Jules.

“I only filled it up once yesterday morning. How did it end up empty again?” At this moment, Jules was puzzled, “Can a tiny Treant digest so many ingredients so quickly? This shouldn’t be the case with the little Zen tree’s usual appetite. Could it be that there’s another magical beast that’s taking advantage of the loophole to eat?”

The suspicion in her heart made her decide to wait and see.
