The letter came from the Martial Enforcement Hall. He was being summoned.

"Finally."

Lin Shen smiled. With a flash of red light in his palm, he turned the letter into ashes. Then, he turned around and walked towards the exit of the academy.

Half an hour later,

Lin Shen arrived at the headquarters of the Martial Enforcement Hall in the Central District. It was a group of buildings that occupied a large area.

After showing the guard his Nine Yang Academy disciple identity token and explaining why he was there, Lin Shen was quickly brought to a place that looked like a gymnasium.

When he arrived, there were already many people inside.

There were no less than 50 people.

What surprised Lin Shen was that Zhao Xueying was among them.

The Martial Enforcement Hall was recruiting Long Breath Stage disciples this time.

To be able to stay here meant that Zhao Xueying had already broken through to the Long Breath Stage!

More than a month ago, she was only at the eighth level of the Qi Transformation Stage.

"Has she consumed some natural treasure or pills that can quickly increase her strength?"

Zhao Xueying was a direct descendant of one of the three major clans.

Lin Shen fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Zhao Xueying also noticed Lin Shen's arrival and a glint flashed across her eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, she pursed her lips and walked towards Lin Shen.

"You accepted this mission too?"

Zhao Xueying was indeed not good at chatting with others, so she asked an obvious question.

Which of the academy's disciples here didn't accept the Martial Enforcement Hall's mission?

After clearing his throat, Lin Shen nodded and casually asked, "Have you heard anything about this mission?"

Zhao Xueying shook her head. "The Martial Enforcement Hall is rather strict about keeping the contents of this mission a secret. They haven't said what they want us to do."

This answer wasn't surprising. After all, if it was really a highly confidential mission, the Martial Enforcement Hall would definitely not tell them the details until the moment before the mission began.

In any case, the disciples were only in charge of some peripheral work.

Even if they didn't know the contents of the mission in advance, it wouldn't affect them much.

Zhao Xueying wasn't good at chatting, and Lin Shen had no intention of developing his relationship with the girl. After chatting for a little while, the two of them fell silent.

Lin Shen didn't mind. He looked around, observing the surrounding crowd.

In just a short while, there were already more than 70 people in the hall.

Upon closer inspection, he saw although these 70 people were gathered in twos and threes, they were vaguely divided into three groups.

There were about thirty people in the innermost area, and Lin Shen had a vague impression of many of them. He probably had seen them in the academy.

Clearly, these thirty people were all from the Nine Yang Academy.

There were less than 20 people in the middle. More than two-thirds of them were young and beautiful girls. They were very lively and attracted the attention of many boys.

Recalling the rumors that the Azure Frost Sect had much more female disciples than males, it was obvious which academy these people belonged to.

The remaining twenty or so people near the entrance were obviously Raging Waves Academy's disciples.

"I didn't expect to see so many people from the three academies."

Lin Shen muttered to himself.

After the number of people exceeded 80, people stopped coming in.

After a while, the door opened, and four to five people in the Martial Enforcement Hall uniform strode in.

The person in the lead was an old acquaintance. It was the flag officer Han Wu.

"Quiet!"

Han Wu shouted loudly, immediately suppressing the surrounding discussion.

When everyone was looking at him, Han Wu raised his voice.

"First of all, thank you all for participating in this mission. Next, we will divide you into teams of four to six people. Now, please gather with your teammates when your name is called!"

Han Wu waved his hand, and a subordinate immediately took a step forward and loudly read out the numbers and members of each team.

The distribution of the teams clearly took into account the academy that the members belonged to. Those from the same academy would be assigned to the same team.

Coincidentally, Lin Shen was placed in the same group as Zhao Xueying.

Furthermore, the other two teammates in the team were actually disciples of the Azure Frost Academy, and they were both girls.

"Nice to meet you. My name is She Shuying."

The first girl to introduce herself was a short-haired girl. She was tall and gave off a valiant aura.

The other girl was petite and had a delicate temperament. She was the type of girl that boys would easily want to protect.

"My name is Zuo Manman."

"I'm Lin Shen."

"Zhao Xueying."

Yu Shuying was obviously an outgoing and cheerful person. After introducing another, she immediately asked excitedly, "I heard that your academy has a new Long Breath Stage student this year. Is that true?"

Zuo Manman was also curious.

After all, a new student at the Long Breath Stage was considered extraordinary in all academies.

Hearing this, Zhao Xueying had a strange expression. She glanced at Lin Shen and nodded slightly.

"It's true."

"It's actually true!" Yu Shuying looked surprised. "I thought the rumors were exaggerated. I didn't expect that someone had really advanced to the Long Breath Stage before entering the academy. I already think the top new disciple of my academy this year is quite impressive, and he's only at the ninth level of the Qi Transformation Stage. I guess there's always someone better out there."

Yu Shuying's face was filled with amazement as she praised the

disciples of other academies without care.

Zuo Manman asked curiously, "Did that person participate in this mission?"

"That's right!" Yu Shuying looked around. "Is he here?"

Zhao Xueying glanced at Lin Shen again, her eyes saying, "It's your turn."

This time, it didn't take a genius to figure out what that meant. The two girls' eyes widened, and they looked at Lin Shen in shock.

"You're that new student?"

Lin Shen shrugged and said with a smile, "I didn't expect my reputation to spread so far. Even the people from the other academies have heard about it."

When she came back to her senses, Yu Shuying clicked her tongue and sized up Lin Shen, as if she was looking at some strange creature.

"To be honest, I thought that geniuses who could advance to the Long Breath Stage before entering the academy would definitely be extremely arrogant. They would walk around with their heads held up high. I didn't expect you to be so approachable. It's beyond my expectations."

Lin Shen couldn't help but laugh. "Your impression is too stereotypical."

"Really?" Yu Shuying pursed her lips. "There are many people like that."

From the looks of it, she seemed to have met many such people.

However, when Lin Shen thought about the disciples of influential families he had encountered before, he somewhat understood her.

After learning that Lin Shen was the person involved in the rumors, the two girls' interest in Lin Shen immediately increased, and they kept asking all kinds of questions out of curiosity.

Zhao Xueying chimed in from time to time.

Three beautiful girls surrounded Lin Shen, making many boys around envious.

After a while, seeing that everyone was more or less familiar with their team, Han Wu shouted,

"Everyone, quiet down. Next, we'll assign the missions!"

Hearing that the highlight of the show had arrived, everyone immediately quietened down and looked at Han Wu.

Upon seeing this, Han Wu nodded in satisfaction and gestured to the people beside him. Soon, someone took out a formation disk, and after fiddling with it for a moment, a water screen condensed above everyone's heads.

Everyone looked at it.

The water screen was showing a manor.

The image gave a panoramic view of the entire manor's layout and surrounding environment.

Numerous numbers were marked at the various traffic routes and intersections around the manor.

"The numbers on it are your team numbers, representing the location you'll guard!"

Han Wu looked around with a solemn expression.

"After the mission begins, all teams will immediately head to their respective positions. Your mission is to stop anyone who tries to escape from the encirclement. Once someone tries to break out, take them down immediately. If the other party resists fiercely, you don't have to ask for instructions and kill them directly!

"You mustn't let anyone go! Do you understand?!"

His powerful words spread throughout the venue, and all the disciples had solemn expressions. They shouted in unison, "Understood!"

"Very good!"

Han Wu nodded in satisfaction. He took the formation disk from his subordinate and pressed it a few times.

In an instant, the formation disk lit up with specks of light as countless tiny blobs of light dispersed in all directions.

At the same time, everyone felt their feet tremble slightly. The entire venue seemed to have jolted.

Just as they were bewildered, they were shocked to find that bright patterns suddenly appeared on the floor beneath their feet.

The dense patterns intertwined and quickly outlined a huge array formation. The light it emitted became brighter and brighter.

This familiar scene reminded Lin Shen of the first time he entered the Nine Yang Academy.

A teleportation formation!

"Let's go!"

Han Wu's calm and powerful voice rang in everyone's ears.

In the next second, Lin Shen felt everything suddenly lit up, and his vision instantly turned white..
