82 – The Look In His Eyes; He Must Have Killed People Before
With so many eyes on him, Ling Zhen evidently felt a bit uneasy.
“Why do you say that?”
Someone raised a question.
Setting a new record isn’t something that can be easily achieved.
Not to mention that the record was set by a single person.
This is even harder.
So why is he saying that Lin Moyu was lucky?
Ling Zhen said with disdain, “He’s merely an ordinary student who just completed the great examination. However, he has a connection with God Bai. He probably got some powerful treasure from him.”
“Otherwise, it would be impossible for one person to clear a nightmare rank dungeon.”
His words have just fallen, when someone said angrily, “So what if he’s an ordinary student? Can’t ordinary students set a record?”
“That’s right. You say Lin Moyu relied on a treasure he got from God Bai to set the record, but do you have any evidence to prove your claim?”
“I recognize you. Your name is Ling Zhen, a student from Qianlong Institute. No wonder you’re looking down on us ordinary students. However, you just got an early start, that’s all. It still remains to be seen who will end up standing at the top.”
Ling Zhen’s words triggered a frenzied reaction.
The relationship between ordinary students and institute students is a bit strained. However, at least things weren’t out in the open, hidden behind a thin membrane.
Everyone was conscious not to pierce through the membrane.
Yet now Ling Zhen threw a metaphorical stone and pierced right through it.
The ordinary students erupted at once.
Since they received the approval of the office of academic affairs, these ordinary students are eligible to enter Dungeon Hall.
It can be said that they are all excellent individuals.
Furthermore, most of them have achieved outstanding results in the great examination, and their class is formidable.
Even though they can’t compare to students nurtured by the academy at first. But over time, the gap will gradually narrow and eventually may even reverse.
So, that’s why in the eyes of many excellent ordinary students, the students nurtured by the academy are nothing special.
As for the institute students, they are naturally on his side, thinking that what Ling Zhen is mostly true.
Both sides broke out in a heated argument, taunting remark flying left and right, almost coming to blows.
With a flash of light, Lin Moyu appeared in front of the dungeon.
A fierce quarrel entered his ears. Momentarily, he couldn’t figure out what was going on.
Suddenly, someone pulled Lin Moyu by the arm, “Lin Moyu, did you just complete the great examination this year?”
Lin Moyu instinctively made a sound of assent.
“What was your result?”
Lin Moyu answered honestly, “Imperial top scorer.”
Everyone was stunned. It turns out he is this year’s imperial top scorer.
The institute students were specially shocked.
Although they look down on ordinary students, but imperial top scorers are different.
Even though imperial top scorers are inferior to them when they first arrive. But after a few years, most imperial top scorers will catch up to them or even surpass them.
Imperial top scorers are no pushovers,
In general, their class and skills are formidable.
They just didn’t have access to many resources and had a late start.
Ling Zhen said coldly, “What’s so great about imperial top scorers? Can they compare to us? If we had taken the great examination, we would have easily taken the position of imperial top scorer.”
Someone retorted, “I wouldn’t say that. If you hadn’t been nurtured by the academy and only awakened your class a week before the great examination, it’s hard to tell if you had been able to take the position of imperial top scorer.”
This statement received approval from many.
Even the institute students had to agree.
After all, it’s the truth.
Lin Moyu finally figured out what was going on.
Ling Zhen was provoking him again.
Lin Moyu looked at Ling Zhen, a surge of murderous intent in his eyes, “I told you — if you provoked me again — that I would kill you.”
Ling Zhen felt intimidated by Lin Moyu’s gaze, “You think I’m scared of you? Who do you think you are?”
Lin Moyu gave him a deep look, his gaze full of admonishment.
If it were in the wilderness, Lin Moyu would have taken action already.
Some noticed Lin Moyu’s gaze and couldn’t help but shiver.
Lin Moyu ignored him, then turned around and entered Spider Nest again.
At this moment, someone patted their chest, “Oh my god, the look in his eyes; he must have killed people before.”
“And not just one or two.”
“Stop saying such things, okay? He’s merely a new student who just finished the great examination. There’s no way he could have killed anyone.”
“Do you think the outside world is that simple? You grew up under the protection of the academy and know nothing of the dangers of the outside world.”
“I’m sure he has killed people before, and quite a few. The look in his eyes just now, it’s as if he were looking at a monster in a dungeon.”
“Right, that look was very scary.”
At this moment, Ling Zhen was also scared.
Lin Moyu’s gaze affected him the most.
In Lin Moyu’s eyes, he was not a human, but rather a monster that can be killed at any time.
When he thought about the terrifying skeletons under Lin Moyu’s command, fear washed over him.
His legs started trembling.
Although he is scared, but he can’t lose face.
Ling Zhen got a grip, “Humph, you better not run into me in the wilderness, or else I’ll kill you.”
With that, Ling Zhen used the Teleportation Stone and teleported away.
After he left, a burst of laughter rose in Dungeon Hall.
“Ha-ha, this guy is scared.”
“From his last words, you can tell that he is just putting up a strong front.”
“What a coward.”
“This is a student cultivated by the academy, a so-called genius, what a disgrace.”
The institute students felt ashamed, giving no retort.
They have already begun to despise Ling Zhen.
After all, this guy caused them to lose face.
They put Ling Zhen on the blacklist, making a mental note not to party up with him for a dungeon raid in the future.
When they left Dungeon Hall and prepared to look for party members, the bell rang again.
“My gosh, what’s going on?”
“There’s another new record?”
“Needless to say, it must be Lin Moyu. He did the same with Mutated Forest yesterday.”
“Yes, I was there yesterday as well. He set a new record on the first raid, and then broke his own record on the second raid.”
“I have never heard of any treasures that can enable people to solo nightmare rank dungeons and create such astonishing records.”
The people who just left Dungeon Hall rushed back in.
When they saw the result on the light screen, their eyes widened more than their mouths.
[Lin Moyu, level 19, Necromancer, 22 minutes and 51 seconds]
This record was no longer astonishing, but instead terrifying.
Everyone felt cold all over.
Soloing a nightmare rank dungeon, in only 22 minutes and 51 seconds.
No one can imagine how he achieved that.
Yet he did achieve it.
The facts were vividly presented before them.
“No way, is there something wrong with Dungeon Hall?”
“What nonsense are you spouting? If anything, there’s something wrong with your head, not Dungeon Hall.”
“Do you know how many years Dungeon Hall has been in operation, yet it has never had any problems.”
“Then how did he do it?”
“You can go and ask him.”
“I won’t go, his eyes are too scary.”
At this moment, Lin Moyu appeared outside the dungeon.
The next moment, he entered the dungeon again.
In the dungeon, Lin Moyu looked at his EXP.
Level: 19 (74%).
There are still 26% left until he can level up.
In order to clear the dungeon quickly, he left many spiders alone in the previous raid and gained very little EXP.
“With this raid, I can level up.”
When he set a new record for Spider Nest, he once again received 1,000 points and five contribution points as reward.
Rumbling sounds rose incessantly in Spider Nest.
Lin Moyu marched forward along with the Skeletal Warriors.
By the time Lin Moyu arrived at the entrance to the boss cavern, white light had already appeared on him.
He leveled up.
Level 20 at last.
Lin Moyu let out a long breath.
He estimates that there are few people in the world who can level up as quickly as him.
After all, he can solo nightmare rank dungeons. His efficiency is astonishingly high.
However, considering that joining Chuangshen Institute requires level 30, he feels that he still has ways to go.
After level 20, leveling speed will definitely slow down again.
He just doesn’t know how much it will slow down.
Based on the time he reached level 10, after he leveled up, skills may undergo a change.
Especially his talent and the skill Summon Skeletal Warrior.
Lin Moyu is looking forward to seeing if there are any changes.
He viewed his attribute panel.

Although he has expected as much, but Lin Moyu was still shocked by the changes.
