Chapter 49: The Witch’s Cloak

???

Ye Xuan’s goal was exactly this. With his current performance, it would be easier to make friends with them. By brushing up some favorability points, he could reach thirty and then have a good time with the lottery.

Immediately, Ye Xuan said to Qin Heng, “Didn’t I tell you? My A-class is different from what you imagined!”

As he spoke, Ye Xuan stomped heavily. His strength was comparable to that of a fully grown adult elephant in its prime.

However, his body was much smaller than an elephant. Pressure is equal to force divided by contact area. Therefore, the destructive power that Ye Xuan could release far exceeded that of an elephant.

With this stomp, the cement arena cracked a thirty-meter-long crack, which was extremely shocking.

Of course, this was not solely Ye Xuan’s credit. Previously, Qin Heng had manipulated the iron sword and used its vibrating ability to partially destroy the structure of the cement ground.

Combined with the damage caused by the iron sword piercing the cement ground, as well as Ye Xuan’s stomp, it all added up to create such a shocking scene.

And this level of destructive power could only be achieved by Su Mengli, an SSS-class Awakener. Others simply couldn’t do it.

Therefore, with this stomp, the people below looked at Ye Xuan with even more admiration.

They couldn’t achieve this level of destruction themselves. Did someone like this need to take shortcuts? Need to rely on others? It’s ridiculous!

Immediately, Ye Xuan picked up the iron sword and threw it to Qin Heng, saying, “Are you still fighting? If you surrender, call me ‘brother’!”

Qin Heng looked at the cracked cement arena and swallowed his saliva. He honestly said, “Brother!”

Ye Xuan smiled and said to the leading teacher, “Teacher, I’m really sorry for breaking the arena. Do I need to compensate?”

The leading teacher was stunned for a moment before saying, “No… How did you do that?”

Ye Xuan calmly said, “What’s so difficult about it?”

Ye Xuan had a good smile on his face because he had added more than twenty people to his friends list. All of these people were S-class Awakeners.

Their favorability levels ranged from ten to twenty. Ye Xuan estimated that as long as he put in a little effort, he could raise their favorability levels to over thirty and start drawing prizes.

And for Ye Xuan, there was another surprise. Qin Heng’s favorability level had increased to fifty!

Qin Heng had a good relationship with Ye Xuan before. Their initial favorability levels were both thirty-five, and after spending some time together, it had increased to forty-five, making them good friends.

Although Qin Heng lost to Ye Xuan in the arena, he wasn’t a petty person. Calling Ye Xuan “brother” after losing actually made him appreciate Ye Xuan even more as a friend.

Therefore, his favorability level increased to fifty, and he could now draw a prize.

Afterwards, Ye Xuan silently said in his heart, “System, draw a prize.”

“Congratulations, host, for obtaining the reward: Witch’s Cloak.”

Upon hearing this system prompt, Ye Xuan was momentarily stunned. The Witch’s Cloak? Was it the same cloak he had imagined?

His thoughts focused on the reward column of the system, where a deep and mysterious blue-purple cloak was quietly placed.

His thoughts concentrated on this Witch’s Cloak, and Ye Xuan also sensed its abilities: “A powerful defensive equipment. After equipping it, it can provide the host with a large amount of life bonus and spell defense. At the same time, it grants a shield that can neutralize spell damage. The shield is invisible to the naked eye and refreshes every twenty-four hours.”

Sure enough, it was the Witch’s Cloak from the game “King of Glory,” but it had been weakened a lot. The shield that used to be obtained after three seconds of expansion now refreshed every twenty-four hours. Even so, it was still very powerful.

In battles between Awakeners, many times, a single negligence determined victory or defeat.

Not to mention the life bonus and spell defense brought by the Witch’s Cloak, just the shield that could neutralize spell damage was an incredible function.

With this Witch’s Cloak in the future, Ye Xuan would have an absolute advantage against elemental ability users. At least until their ability development exceeded ten percent, they would pose no threat to Ye Xuan.

Su Mengli had no surprises about Ye Xuan’s victory. Ye Xuan had already said on the bus that he was absolutely confident, and it turned out to be true. Ye Xuan never disappointed her.

Afterwards, the group returned to the tiered classroom, and the leading teacher, Zhou Qiang, said, “Alright, everyone quiet down. Next, let’s welcome the dean of our Awakening Academy, Lin Xu.”

Then, a middle-aged man with a cold and stern expression stepped onto the stage. He looked at the students below and said, “I am Lin Xu. I won’t waste time with unnecessary words. Let’s get straight to the point.

Talent is innate, but effort is something you can decide for yourself. Your progress in the next month will determine the cultivation resources you can obtain in the following year.

Awakeners can improve their ability development in two ways. The first is to walk on the edge of life and death, pushing their limits. Each time their ability development increases, they will gain a huge improvement. Progress is fast, and no resources are needed. The downside is that they die quickly.

The second method is to absorb spirit stones to increase spiritual power development. This method is slower but more stable.

Both methods can be tried if you are interested. By the way, I am a self-awakened person, and I mainly use the first method.”

When Lin Xu said this, the students below were all shocked. Walking on the edge of life and death to improve oneself, this person was ruthless! Looking at Lin Xu’s eyes, they couldn’t help but feel a bit fearful.

Ye Xuan’s expression didn’t change much. He knew Lin Xu. He was indeed a ruthless person. In his previous life, Lin Xu’s ability development exceeded ninety-five percent.

Ninety percent of that was obtained through life and death training. However, his method was not suitable for others.

Because Lin Xu had an SS-class ability called the Indestructible Demon Body. This ability had a terrifying recovery ability. Even if his limbs were severed, they could be reattached.

At the same time, the more injured he was in battle, the stronger his strength, speed, and recovery abilities would increase exponentially. The more he fought, the braver he became.

Unless someone could instantly kill him, they would eventually be worn down. Lin Xu died before the invasion of the magic city. He was an SS-class Awakener and belonged to the type that became stronger the more he fought.

His role on the battlefield was not much smaller than Su Mengli’s. Therefore, before the invasion of the magic city, arrangements were made for advanced beasts with shape-shifting abilities to assassinate Su Mengli and Lin Xu.

Su Mengli was always aloof and had no friends. The other party transformed into a high-classing member of the magic city’s defense force and said they wanted to discuss the defense matters of the magic city with Su Mengli.

Su Mengli glanced at the other party and unleashed her full firepower, completely incinerating the other party.

Afterwards, Su Mengli didn’t even lift her eyelids and coldly said, “No one has ever discussed defense matters with me!”
