Today's test was another major failure.

After the police had dealt with everyone who had been distracted by the hurricane, You Yonghuai was finally able to get off the man.

After hopping into the restroom and cleaning the disgusting blood off his hands, You Yonghuai slowly returned to the venue.

Ling Xiuqi stood on the stage, directing the police to escort these cult members. Ye Qingchen stood beside him with her arms crossed, looking calm.

Seeing You Yonghuai limping over, Ling Xiuqi chuckled and said, "Looks like we're not quite in sync... Are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's just that my leg hurts a little." You Yonghuai patted his left thigh, seemingly unfazed.

His sense of pain had already become weak, and with the restoration of his life source, a mere cramp was naturally no problem.

If all else fails, you can cut off the left leg and let a new one grow.

He couldn't possibly settle any scores with Ling Xiuqi; at most, he'd just complain a bit.

After all, the purpose was good, and the result was good; it was just that a few unexpected things happened along the way.

Sitting down on the stage without any regard for appearances, You Yonghuai removed the two masks from his face, took a deep breath of air, and pulled out the key and note that Dai Quan had given him.

After explaining the situation, Ling Xiuqi took the key and handed the note to Ye Qingchen for identification.

"There's no problem. Judging from the writing style and spell structure, it's the same as the notebook we submitted before."

"Alright, then Xiao You, you can take it and learn it," Ling Xiuqi said, handing the note back to You Yonghuai. "Once you've learned it, we'll go check out that basement."

"Aren't you guys going to learn?" You Yonghuai asked, somewhat surprised. "Then wouldn't only I be allowed to go in?"

"I would like to learn, but," Ling Xiuqi said with a half-smile and a half-sigh, looking down at his palm, "this body of mine has already been given to Hurricane, and I can no longer master any other abilities."

"I'm in a similar situation. This kind of soul magic is incompatible with my existing abilities," Ye Qingchen said, shaking his head helplessly.

"Then there's nothing we can do." You Yonghuai regretfully put away the note.

He wasn't worried that Ling Xiuqi and the other person would trick him, but he was afraid that, like when he was learning the Fireball spell, he would encounter some kind of spell check that would prevent him from mastering it.

If all else fails, then use the phrase "accumulate knowledge and experience before unleashing it."

During this period, the accumulated misfortunes of "great things coming to fruition" had reached their limit, giving Yu Yonghuai another chance to ensure the success of the examination.

"Alright, everyone go back now. Xiao You, contact us when you're almost ready."

After leaving in the police car, You Yonghuai first transferred the payment to the fat man, and then stopped by a cake shop to buy a small cake.

He remembered that Si Xuanyin liked to eat this.

The absent-minded girl kept glancing towards the door until she heard it open. Then her eyes lit up, and she abandoned the game she was playing and ran out.

"Holy crap, why is number three AFK?"

Si Xuanyin's sudden disappearance prompted her teammates to finally turn on their microphones, but they received no response.

"I brought you a small cake." After handing the cake to Si Xuanyin, You Yonghuai took off his shoes and yawned wearily.

"Are you alright?" Si Xuanyin put her favorite little cake aside for the time being, circled around You Yonghuai a few times, and asked with concern.

"Of course not. Even if it had, it was cured on the way back." You Yonghuai smiled and casually rubbed Si Xuanyin's head.

"Your hairstyle will be messed up..." Si Xuanyin said in a dissatisfied tone, but she did not resist.

After declining the girl's invitation to share the cake, You Yonghuai went back to his room first, intending to finish the soul magic before going to sleep.

That way, if I fail, I can let Si Xuanyin give it a try sooner rather than later.

Similar to the flesh and blood magic in another notebook, the magic on the slip of paper was still easy to understand, and You Yonghuai was able to use it very quickly.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that this soul magic itself is relatively low-end and not very difficult.

The effect of this soul magic is quite simple: it consumes spiritual energy to gain special vision, allowing one to directly observe the souls of others.

"It's not very effective..." You Yonghuai quickly stopped using the spell.

In most cases, this kind of vision is useless. Special souls like Si Xuanyin don't need this ability to be seen, and souls that can avoid being discovered won't be detected even with this kind of vision.

Not to mention that during the period of maintaining vision, the user's spirituality will be continuously depleted.

Seeing that it was getting late, You Yonghuai reminded Si Xuanyin to brush her teeth after eating the cake. After washing up, he went to bed early.

The next day.

[Spell check: A score greater than 30 indicates a successful check]

Test result: 28

[Check failed! Obtained the incomplete spell "Chaos Enhancement"]

Some knowledge surfaced in his mind, but it was incomplete, preventing You Yonghuai from using the corresponding spells.

"If I had known it would be like this, I would have just used 'Accumulate Strength and Unleash Power' to adjust the success rate. Now they won't even tell me where to finish the spell." You Yonghuai said with dissatisfaction as he looked at the test results.

Because he was about to go to the underground space of Wenjiang Middle School again, Yu Yonghuai decided to save his "accumulated knowledge and skills" for when the emergency was coming.

Since high school students are almost on holiday, they won't be bumped into by random people if they go there now.

The group agreed to meet at nine o'clock. Taking into account the time spent in traffic, You Yonghuai felt that it was about time to set off.

Remembering Dai Quan's warning from the previous night, You Yonghuai didn't dare to take too many risks, so he brought everything he could.

He stuffed the Glory Shield, the Sage's Token, and the Demon-Slaying Nail into his pockets.

Si Xuanyin also possessed You Yonghuai's body, intending to go with him.

She didn't want to stay at home like a widow waiting for someone to come back.

As for the container that Dai Quan had sent earlier, Ling Xiuqi also said he would bring it along.

If all goes well, You Yonghuai should be able to break another unlucky node today.

After taking a taxi to the residential area opposite Wenjiang Middle School, You Yonghuai quickly found Building 8 and saw Ling Xiuqi at the entrance.

Since neither of them could learn soul magic, they couldn't enter the magic circle. Ye Qingchen felt he was useless, so he simply didn't come along.

Moreover, a large number of cult members were waiting for him to interrogate them last night.

"Be careful. Those people at last night's meeting are at most mid-level members of the Wujian School. None of the leaders showed up." Before opening the door, Ling Xiuqi reminded them, "If anything goes wrong, run immediately. At worst, we can just break the curse node next time."

After saying that, Ling Xiuqi inserted the key and opened the door leading to the underground space.

Unlike last time, a faint smell of blood slowly wafted out from the underground passage.
