Lin Shen smiled and nodded.

It was naturally a good thing to have two more minor merits.

After the registration, Lin Shen now had fifteen minor merits.

Apart from the remaining four minor merits from before, there were also five minor merits for the mission reward. The remaining six minor merits were the past two months' fixed benefit for Black-rank disciples.

"Speaking of which, there's still a month before the rank challenge,"

Lin Shen suddenly remembered.

However, he immediately threw this matter to the back of his mind.

Many people were curious about whether Lin Shen could keep his spot as a Black-rank disciple or not, but he wasn't concerned at all.

After leaving the Mission Hall, Lin Shen returned to the wooden building and prepared to continue cultivating.

On the way, a person walked toward him. It was Leng Xing, who had a conflict with him in the Mission Hall that day.

Lin Shen had a deep impression of this Senior Brother, who had been forbidden by his father to accept any combat missions.

Leng Xing also remembered Lin Shen well. When he saw Lin Shen, he immediately glared at him.

Seeing this, Lin Shen smiled and walked away without arguing with him.

Watching Lin Shen walking away, Leng Xing spat on the ground.

"What are you so proud of? Let's see if you can still smile in a month!"

Just as he reached the wooden building, Lin Shen saw a paper crane flying around outside the door.

"Another flying crane. Who is it this time?"

Lin Shen grabbed the paper crane in surprise.

This time, the paper crane was made of a folded talisman. After opening it, he immediately heard a familiar voice.

"Lin, come to the Night Dream Club when you're free. Su and I will wait for you here."

After sending the message, the sound-transmitting talisman quickly turned into ashes and dissipated.

"Yang..."

Lin Shen smiled slightly. He had been busy cultivating for the past two months after entering the academy and had yet to meet up with Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian, so he canceled his cultivation plan and rushed out of the academy.

When they arrived at the Night Dream Club, the sky was already dark.

Yang Zhongyi had clearly made arrangements. As soon as Lin Shen stepped into the Night Dream Club, a waiter immediately welcomed him.

"Mr. Lin, Young Master Yang and Young Master Su are already waiting for you in the private room on the third floor."

Lin Shen nodded slightly and was led to the third floor by the waiter.

After opening the door of the private room, he saw Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian sitting on both sides of the table. Beside each of them was a beautiful cat girl.

Yang Zhongyi lay lazily on the cat girl's lap, sipping the wine handed over by her fair hand with a satisfied expression.

Su Nian, on the other hand, was sitting upright with his back straight.

He didn't even look at the girl beside him.

Instead, the cat girl stared at his side profile intently. Her cheeks were flushed, and her gaze was infatuated.

Hearing the door open, Yang Zhongyi looked up and immediately smiled. He sat up and greeted Lin Shen.

"Lin, you've finally appeared. If I didn't see you, I would have thought that you were missing!"

Lin Shen sat down at the side of the table facing the door. He picked up some snacks and mumbled as he chewed.

"I was busy cultivating."

He was just saying it casually, but Yang Zhongyi seemed to have misunderstood. His eyes narrowed slightly as he waved his hand silently.

The two cat girls immediately stood up and bowed slightly. Then, they left the private room and closed the door.

After they were gone, Yang Zhongyi looked at Lin Shen and said solemnly,

"Are you confident about the rank challenge next month?"

Hearing this, Su Nian immediately turned around and looked over with a serious expression.

The two of them had witnessed the uproar in the Nine Yang Academy recently. They knew many people couldn't wait to challenge Lin Shen and snatch his Black-rank disciple spot.

In the rank challenge next month, Lin Shen would face a lot of pressure!

Lin Shen was stunned by the sudden question. When he realized what they meant, he couldn't help but laugh.

"That's what you invited me here for?"

Seeing Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian's serious expressions, Lin Shen said calmly,

"Don't worry. I'm not so weak that I can't even keep what I have."

Seeing Lin Shen's unexpected confidence, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian couldn't help but be stunned.

Initially, they were worried that Lin Shen wouldn't be confident about the rank challenge and wanted to encourage him. But now, it seemed that he didn't take it to heart at all.

Didn't Lin Shen realize what kind of difficulty he was going to face next?

It was good to not lose confidence, but he shouldn't be blindly confident.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Zhongyi still felt that he had to remind Lin Shen.

"Lin, it's not that I want to intimidate you, but there are many powerful people among the Yellow-rank disciples. Based on what I know, Duan Hao and Cheng Xipeng both threatened to challenge you in public.

They're both at Level 4 of the Long Breath Stage. They're not easy to deal with!"

"That's right!"

Su Nian nodded as well.

"I've also heard of these two names. Be it Duan Hao or Cheng Xipeng, their strength is enough to be ranked in the top five among the Yellow-rank disciples. Furthermore, these two are seniors who have been in the academy for more than three years. Their attainments in martial arts are extremely high. Even though you might not be their match!"

"I see. Thank you for your information." Lin Shen smiled without many reactions.

Seeing that Lin Shen was still calm, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian felt a little resigned.

However, they also knew that Lin Shen was a person with his own opinions. Once he decided on something, it would be very difficult to persuade him, so they could only stop trying..
