Heroes Return

Just then, Lin Jie suddenly looked out the window at the beach.

A loud bang echoed on the beach outside the window.

Amidst the billowing dust, Harry and Tifa struggled to their feet.

"Oh dear! I didn't expect such a strong reaction." Tifa said to Harry, feeling dizzy and disoriented, "Alright, I've completed the task for you. Now you need to help me make the equipment."

“Of course I mean what I say.” Harry struggled to his feet, shook the sand off himself, and looked at the beach.

Right in the middle of the beach, there was a huge, charred mark shaped like a magic circle, just like a magic circle that had just been cast.

Around the magic circle, there were also several strange machines of unknown origin.

"Are you two starting to experiment with magical mechanical fusion?" Lin Jie appeared between the two and said.

"Teacher! We've fixed the spiked club!" Harry said excitedly to Lin Jie, pointing to the spiked club in the center of the magic circle. Then he didn't know what to say next.

Tifa was also at a loss for words: "W-what?! What's going on?"

Lin Jie followed the gazes of the two people and saw a dark-haired girl with wheat-colored skin standing quietly in the center of the magic circle. She had two small, pointed horns on her head and wore an ancient-style dress.

"Damn it! Is this some kind of powerful girlification magic circle?" Lin Jie couldn't help but say to Harry, but the next moment he realized something.

At the same time, the girl, carrying a huge spiked club that was completely disproportionate to her size, walked towards Lin Jie. When she reached Lin Jie, she bowed and greeted him, saying, "Master."

"Holy crap!" Lin Jie turned to Harry and said, "You two actually summoned the spirit wand!"

"Because many sealed evil spirits have been eliminated, I am able to come out," the spirit said to Lin Jie.

"W-w-w-! Is this the legendary spirit of a weapon?" Harry looked at the cute little girl in front of him in shock.

"Wait! This isn't scientific! Why would a girl's soul appear inside a spiked club? A spiked club shouldn't be alive." Tifa stared in shock at the scene before her. "Wait! Could it be that the material of the spiked club itself is some unknown life form? Teacher! Please lend me the club spirit so I can study it!"

"Study your sister!" Lin Jie replied impatiently.

"Then she'll be my sister from now on! I'm going to study her!"

"Go about your business," Lin Jie said to Tifa and Harry.

After dismissing the disgruntled Tifa and Harry, Lin Jie looked at the little girl in front of him again: "Fine, as long as it's not those four older sisters who come out, it doesn't matter who the other spirits come out."

After a brief moment of thought, Lin Jie finally arrived at this answer.

"Oh, right, I have a task for you. Go and gather all the other students back for me." Lin Jie said to his spirit, "Except for those two from before, bring all the other students here."

"Yes, Master." With that, Bangling disappeared from Lin Jie's sight. Not long after, Lin Jie saw Zhi Nian scream as it flew from the sky toward him and then crashed heavily onto the beach.

"Who the hell is that little girl? Why is she attacking me with a spiked club?" Obsession crawled out of the sand, and then he saw Lin Jie standing in front of him: "That bastard, you didn't arrange this, did you?"

"He's clearly a goofball, but I never expected his mind to work so fast!" Lin Jie looked at Zhi Nian with a look of newfound understanding.

But before the obsessive could even finish speaking, Miyamoto Spicy Strips flew down from the sky and, after landing on the beach, said with difficulty, "Such sharp stick technique..."

Immediately afterward, Ye Daoshen and Qi Ge flew over one after the other, and the two landed successfully in a Type 69 formation.

"What the hell is that little girl with the spiked club?" Ye Daoshen struggled to his feet. He never imagined that one day he would be inexplicably beaten with a spiked club by a little girl, and then end up here.

Next to be attacked were the three henchmen brothers and Justin.

"Master, we've found them all." Bangling carried the trembling Felicia in one hand, while dragging the struggling Akarin with the other.

"I just asked you to call them over," Lin Jie said to Bang Ling. "But whatever, it's quick anyway, it's more convenient."

"Convenient my ass!" Ye Daoshen shouted angrily at Lin Jie, whose attack by Bang Ling had almost crippled him.

"Forget about the details," Lin Jie said to the students who had fallen onto the beach. "It's time to train your life-or-death combat skills."

"Life-or-death combat ability?" Upon hearing Lin Jie's words, Justin instinctively shrank back, as did Felicia, who resembled a startled rabbit.

"No! I don't want this!" Felicia kept muttering. From the moment Lin Jie mentioned the life-or-death struggle, she knew that nothing good would happen next.

"Alright, you guys wait for me here!" Lin Jie simply said to them, and then disappeared before the students could even speak.

In fact, most students were still lying on the beach at this time.

Not long after, a mournful cry reached everyone's ears. The next moment, to the students' astonishment, a huge blue whale was approaching them.

“Akarin, are you kidding me?” Felicia grabbed Akarin, who was standing next to her, and said, “I saw a huge whale flying in the sky.”

“I didn’t do anything,” Akarin said to Felicia. “Look at that whale!”

The other students present also heard her words, and everyone looked up at the giant whale.

To everyone's surprise, Lin Jie was now standing on the giant whale.

At this moment, all the students were shocked by Lin Jie's identity. None of them had expected that Lin Jie could actually control that terrifying giant whale beast.

It wasn't until the giant whale stopped directly above everyone's heads that all the students felt its oppressive force.

"Alright, all of you, get on the back of the giant whale!" Lin Jie said to the students. "Next, I'm going to take you to a brand new training ground."

As Lin Jie spoke, he gestured for the students to get onto the back of the giant whale.

"By the way, Qige, you stay here, I need to give you some private lessons." Lin Jie said to Qige, who was about to follow the others to get on the back of the giant whale. His words reminded Qige of Justin's miserable state a while ago, and he immediately felt terrible.

After everyone climbed onto the back of the giant whale, Lin Jie signaled the whale to fly away into the distance.

After some time, everyone was shocked to discover that they had arrived in an unknown sea area.

"Everyone, let me introduce you to the Fantasy Sea!" Lin Jie said to the students around him.

"What a beautiful sea!" Felicia exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the water beneath the giant whale.

The others also began to examine this legendary sea area. Like all humans entering the Fantasy Sea for the first time, Lin Jie's students couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"Teacher, is this the Fantasy Sea?" Akarin ran up to Lin Jie. "I've heard that many fairy tale kingdoms are located in this sea. Teacher, can you tell me if the stories in those fairy tales are true? I've always wanted to know what happened after Cinderella and the prince lived together."

"I haven't heard anything about it," Lin Jie said to Akarin. "To be honest, their married life isn't very harmonious."

"Huh? Is your married life not going well?" Akarin asked with interest.

"Actually, that prince is a foot fetishist. He doesn't like anything but feet. After living together for a while, Cinderella inevitably couldn't stand it," Lin Jie replied.

"Teacher, you're not joking, are you? I don't believe it!" Felicia said as she walked over.

“I’m not kidding,” Lin Jie replied. “Cinderella only changed her clothes back then, she never said she would cover her face, right? But why didn’t the prince remember her face? The reason is simple, because the prince was actually looking at her feet the whole time.”

"What happened to Sleeping Beauty?" Akarin asked with interest.

"Sleeping Beauty? She was killed by that prince later," Lin Jie replied.

"Huh? Sleeping Beauty was so beautiful, why did the prince kill her?" Even Akarin couldn't accept it after hearing Lin Jie's words.

"It's nothing. Do you know what motivated that prince to overcome all obstacles along the way?" Lin Jie asked casually.

Akarin shook his head.

"Actually, that prince was a necrophiliac," Lin Jie said casually. "Back then, it was because Sleeping Beauty was always asleep and would never grow old, that the prince risked his life to save her."

"Huh? This is so different from what I imagined," Akarin couldn't help but say.

“Not much difference,” Lin Jie replied. “At least the events described in the fairy tale are correct, it’s just that the ending is a bit unexpected. Just like the ending of the Little Mermaid story that I heard in the Sea Emperor’s Capital last time.”

"I won't listen! I won't listen! I won't listen!" Felicia covered her ears at this moment: "I don't believe what the teacher says! Teacher, you big liar! I won't listen to anything you say! I just won't listen."

"Fine, don't listen then." Lin Jie looked at the small island not far away: "We're almost there."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Alright, we've arrived." Lin Jie looked at the small island not far away and said to everyone, "You will have to survive here for the next five days."

As Lin Jie spoke, he stomped his foot.

The giant whale beneath his feet let out a cry and then moved toward the island.

When everyone arrived at the island, Ye Daoshen asked Lin Jie thoughtfully, "Teacher, is the life-or-death training you mentioned just a simple task like surviving in a place like this for five days?"

“Of course, it’s that simple a task,” Lin Jie replied.

"How could it be such a simple task? This bastard is definitely up to no good!" Zhi Nian then looked at Lin Jie: "Anyway, the tasks this guy arranges are definitely not going to be anything good!"

"I don't like it here! I can't smell the spicy snacks here!" Miyamoto Spicy Snacks also said.

"Alright, I won't waste any more time with you here." Lin Jie said, then gestured for the giant whale to carry him back into the sky. "By the way, just a friendly reminder, the local sea creatures call this place Cannibal Island! That means the entire island is infested with A-level cannibalistic creatures. I hope you have a wonderful time here."

"What...what...what could possibly be some wonderful memories here!" Justin shouted as he watched Lin Jie's departing figure, while he also vaguely heard the sounds of strange creatures wriggling.

After flying a short distance, Lin Jie said to the staff standing beside him, "Please come down and keep an eye on them. I don't want these idiots to actually die here."

After hearing Lin Jie's words, Bang Ling nodded slightly and then disappeared in front of Lin Jie.

"It's so nice to have someone to do things for me. Speaking of which, should I consider having her wear a maid outfit in the future?" Lin Jie couldn't help but think to himself, and he found the idea quite appealing.

Not long after, Lin Jie reappeared on the beach. Qi Ge was sitting on the beach, looking rather bored.

"Hey, I'm back." Lin Jie suddenly appeared beside Qi Ge.

"Teacher!" Qige turned to look at Lin Jie.

"Next, I'm going to give you some special training," Lin Jie said to Qi Ge. "It's about training your strength. How does it sound? Doesn't it sound interesting?"

"Training on the strength in my body?" Upon hearing Lin Jie's words, Qi Ge couldn't help but look at his bandaged arm: "Teacher, what are you planning to do?"

"Need I say more? Our next training session will be about helping you master this power. Your level might even increase several times over by then," Lin Jie said, pointing to Qi Ge's arm.

"Teacher! Don't joke around! The power in my arm is a power that my father painstakingly refined over countless years." Qige said to Lin Jie, "That's a power designed to destroy humanity! Let alone mastering it, just resisting its corrosive influence on me and everything around me has already exhausted all my energy!"

"That's why I've always said you're just a piece of trash with a combat power of five," Lin Jie said calmly. "In my eyes, your current situation is like that of a little girl who could be raped at any moment. Your first thought is to hide, not to take down that dangerous rapist!"

"Teacher, what kind of analogy is that!" Qige said discontentedly. "You have no idea what that power represents! If I actively come into contact with that power, my body and my spirit will be instantly corrupted by it! I will completely turn into a dangerous person! What I should do now is to seal this evil power as much as possible!"

“No power is evil!” Lin Jie said to Qi Ge. “The key is where you intend to use this power!”

"Hmph! Anyone can talk big like that!" Qige remained unchanged: "Do you think you can sway me with such hot-blooded words? Don't be ridiculous! Teacher, you have never even seen this kind of power! This power is inherently evil! And I have no way to control it, since I will be immediately corrupted by that power as soon as I break the seal."

"You really are full of talk about being a complete weakling," Lin Jie said. "Look at that Uzumaki X-Man! Didn't he manage to control that so-called evil power within him?"

"Don't be ridiculous! The kind of guy who can brainwash the boss with just talk is an exception!"

"Sigh! I'm really bad at persuasion." Lin Jie sighed. "Since that's the case, I have no choice but to force you to cultivate. Besides, in my opinion, your choice was completely wrong! You've gone down the whole path of a weakling."

"Teacher, what are you going to do?" Upon hearing his words, Qige involuntarily took two steps back.

"Do you even need to ask? Of course I intend to help you walk the path of a true man." Lin Jie said to Qi Ge, "Just like I said at the beginning, don't complain about how difficult or powerful your mission is! Don't lament the unfairness of fate! Remember, kid, the reason for all this is simply because you are not strong enough."

As Lin Jie spoke, he took out the iron bar in his hand and walked towards Qi Ge.
