All players: Become a Dharma King, with unlimited skill stats.

An Bai saw that he had already gained enough from this trip, so he didn't plan to stay in the wild any longer.

In addition, the battle with the projection of the Mountain Eclipse King had made An Bai deeply feel the extreme fatigue brought about by extreme combat.

This kind of mental fatigue cannot be recovered by leveling up; one must take a good rest.

So he and Li Da returned to the city together.

Meanwhile.

Chengdong Military Region.

Lin Qingshan, who had just arrived with his men to search for An Bai, learned some major news from Li Shan, the head of the Chengdong Military Region.

"Members of the Lin Yuan Cult have been discovered in the wild!"

"They're attempting to summon the projection of the Mountain Devourer in the eastern wilderness!"

"We must immediately issue alerts and rescue notices to Shangjiang City, Linjiang City, Dongjiang City, and Jusen City, ordering their garrison experts to converge on their positions as quickly as possible!"

"Send this message to the Seventh Military Region, and simultaneously request assistance from the nearest Holy Phoenix Academy, Beidou Academy, and Great Xia Academy!"

"Also, Professor Lin, you're a teacher at the Four Saints Academy, right? Please inform your academy of this news as well. If possible, it would be best to let them know as well, because if absolutely necessary, we might need your assistance!"

"Notify all city defense troops to prepare to activate the city's defensive formation at full power! In the event that the situation becomes untenable, we must buy the citizens as much time as possible to escape!"

When Captain Li Shan saw Lin Qingshan and several principals coming over, he didn't try to hide the matter and spoke directly.

Everyone present knew the dangers posed by the Eclipse King's projection.

If not handled properly, the entire city, or even the nearby towns, could be destroyed!

Historically, there have been four instances of the Eclipse King descending throughout the world, one of which occurred within the territory of Sheikha.

The losses from that incident were incalculable, with the number of casualties even reaching millions!

"The King of Eclipse!?"

The principals who followed behind also looked fearful.

"Everyone, go back and prepare to organize the students to leave Shangjiang City. We must be prepared to abandon the city and flee!"

Lin Qingshan said decisively.

He had also experienced that catastrophe and knew that decisiveness was necessary at this time!

Only by protecting these vital forces can we have a future.

However, at that very moment...

Li Shan's communicator rang—

"elder brother!!!"

"Bro!!! Holy crap, do you even know? The Eclipse King projection is solved!!!"

The sudden shout startled Li Shan for a while.

Then Li Shan suddenly grabbed the communicator and shouted:

"Report on your situation immediately! The other members of Team Three have returned. They said you left the team to rescue a student named An Bai, is that right?"

On the other side, Li Da was still incredibly excited: "Brother! An Bai and I are both safe and sound, and we're heading back to the city."

"Furthermore, with the help of the An Bai brothers, the crisis of the Eclipse King's arrival was successfully resolved!"

Although Li Da was very excited, he still reported the battle situation one by one.

After repeated questioning, Li Shan finally confirmed that the Eclipse King would not be coming.

"call--"

Even he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He then said to those around him, "Cancel the notification to apply for rescue from the university, but we must still maintain vigilance in Shangjiang City and Dongjiang City, and be ready to receive orders at any time."

"Send Team Two and Team Four to the coordinates sent back by Li Da to scout and verify the situation!"

After giving the order, he turned to the communicator again, but this time his tone was not as urgent as before.

"Li Da, when you're on duty, you must call me Captain!"

"Also, make sure to protect An Bai and escort him back to the camp!"

About half an hour later.

The person in charge of scouting the intelligence finally brought back the confirmed information.

Meanwhile, An Bai and Li Da returned to the East City Military Region.

After confirming once again that there was no danger of the Eclipse King being summoned, Li Shan finally felt completely relieved and canceled the highest level of alert throughout the city.

Although it was known that this sudden wave of alarms might cause chaos among the city's residents.

But chaos is better than the city being completely destroyed!

As for the specifics, the military did not intend to disclose them to the public, only saying that it was a temporary exercise to keep citizens vigilant and prepared for potential dangers.

The only information Lin Qingshan received was the initial news that "with An Bai's assistance, the crisis of the Eclipse King's projection was resolved."

The three principals did not expect that this so-called crisis of destroying the city would turn out to be more bark than bite.

From receiving the message to lifting the alert, it took less than an hour.

So much so that they all thought the military was making a mountain out of a molehill, or that there was a mistake in the intelligence transmission.

"I didn't expect the alarm to be lifted so quickly."

"It seems that An Bai encountered members of the Lin Yuan Cult in the wild, and then worked with the patrol team to deal with these members who wanted to summon the projection of the Eclipse King."

"Yes, after all, if the projection of the Eclipse King has really been successfully summoned, even if it is only at level one, it is not something he can handle."

Lin Qingshan quickly came to a conclusion that everyone present agreed with.

"Even so, An Bai is incredibly brave and resourceful; he has truly made a great contribution!"

"Principal Zhang, you almost caused a promising young talent to miss out on an opportunity!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Gaohai's expression turned somewhat displeased.

Instead of feeling proud that a student from their school had done something so meritorious, they were not proud at all.

On the contrary, she felt that it was all because of An Bai that she had been reprimanded time and time again, and had lost face!

Moreover, the principal of Shui Lan High School has already given out recommendation slots, which means that even if the other party performs well in the assessment, it will be counted on Shui Lan High School's side, not their No. 1 High School.

Zhang Gaohai didn't reply, he just hummed.

On the contrary, Lan Qiu, the principal of Shui Lan High School, had increasingly bright eyes, secretly marveling at how he had struck gold. He couldn't help but step forward and smile:

"An Bai truly lived up to the internal referral quota I gave him. On the other hand, Principal Zhang, you should go back and check if your school's qualification assessment equipment is old and out of service."

Just then, An Bai was also brought here by a guard.

"Hello Principal Zhang, is there anything I can help you with?" An Bai asked, somewhat puzzled.

Why did the principal come to greet me personally?

"Um."

result....

The other party simply responded coldly and said nothing more.

An Bai was somewhat confused, so he activated his appraisal skill and checked one of the data points—

[Attitude]: Indifference 8, Hostility 3, Murder Intent 0

? ? ? ?

What's going on?

Did I offend the principal?

"You must be An Bai, right? I'm Lin Qingshan, a teacher from the Four Saints Academy."

At this moment, Lin Qingshan walked over enthusiastically to explain to An Bai.

"I just heard from Captain Li that you've done a great service. This kind of thing deserves praise and reward, no matter what. I'll make a suggestion to the military on your behalf, in the name of the Great Hero Academy!"

"There's another thing. The principal of Shui Lan High School is willing to give you a spot in the internal referral assessment."

Would you personally be willing to participate in this internal referral assessment?
