Chapter 86 : I bet you two can't get even one point
“Everyone, this competition will be based on a point system. Students from different grades will be assigned to different zones. The rules allow you to compete for prey, but absolutely no attacks against fellow students are permitted. Violators will face expulsion at minimum, or even imprisonment in severe cases. Understood?!” The instructor announced the rules from the stage.
“Next, each of you will be given a magic card. This card will record your points and will protect you during emergencies, teleporting you to the instructor's safe zone. However, doing so means you'll be disqualified from returning to the match and will exit with your current score.”
“You are no longer the freshmen you once were. After countless practical evaluations, this is nothing more than a minor test for you.”
Winnie stood in the line. Soon, the magic card was handed to him. It had his name and grade. This was a special card with intricate patterns, black as its base, adorned with blue designs resembling a spellbook.
Winnie tucked the card into his chest.

Only first-year students gathered here. As for where the upperclassmen had gone, Winnie guessed that due to different hunting grounds, their assigned zones and waiting areas were separate.
Under the instructor's guidance, the first-year students arrived at the entrance. One instructor took out a magic card key and swiped it at the forest's entrance. Instantly, the barrier that had hovered over the forest vanished. The previously gloomy forest suddenly felt bright and open.

Winnie removed his ice crystal earring, tossed it in the air, and transformed it into a long ice spear. He spun it a few times, then stepped inside.
Shikondell followed closely behind Winnie, entering as well.
Honestly, Winnie felt this points assessment came at the worst possible time, just when his soul armament was sealed. Now, all he could rely on were his combat experience and his magic artifact.
It wasn't a big deal in itself, but when it came to scoring points, he definitely wouldn't outperform other students.

After leading the group a certain distance into the forest, the instructor stopped and remained behind. Clearly, the rest of the journey was up to the students themselves.
Having gone through numerous practical evaluations, the students were already sensitive to combat training. This was merely replacing opponents with magical beasts. So after the instructor halted, they casually split up, each team hoping to keep their distance from others to avoid having their points stolen. Soon, the group scattered.
The once gathered crowd dispersed into small clusters. Finally, glancing around, Winnie realized no other teams remained nearby, only him and Shikondell were left.
Suddenly, a black rabbit as large as a dog leapt out from the bushes. Unlike ordinary rabbits, this one had a red mark on its forehead, bloodshot eyes, and sharp fangs protruding from its mouth.

These magical beasts here were clearly much larger than those in the outer forests. Winnie guessed it was due to the exceptionally rich mana in the air or some unique property of the soil.
Indeed, the Carillian Archipelago was truly a blessed land. No wonder the ancient Carillian Empire had valued it so highly, establishing both an imperial academy and a research facility here, even sealing and studying the [Divine Authority] on this very island.

“Dell, our first target has arrived. Let's go,” Winnie pointed at the black rabbit.
“Eh? Are we... going to kill it?” Shikondell hesitated.
“What else?” Winnie replied, slightly exasperated. “We're here to earn points, right? The mana concentration on this island is too intense, and the soil carries special energy, causing magical beasts to grow uncontrollably. If we don't eliminate some every year, they'll eventually spread everywhere.”
“Oh, oh, right, right!” Upon hearing this, Shikondell hastily began preparing a spell to blast the giant black rabbit.
But of course, a magical beast wouldn't just stand still and wait to die. Upon sensing danger, the rabbit darted into the brush and vanished after a few rolls.
“Ah, ah.” Winnie shook his head. If only he could use magic right now, a single Ice Lock would've snared the rabbit instantly, allowing him to capture and dissolve it immediately.

“Winnie, was I... too slow just now?” Shikondell asked meekly.
“If this rabbit felt it had a chance to defeat us, it might've already lunged and bitten us,” Winnie sighed, glancing at Shikondell.
Magical beasts aren't gentle creatures. That black rabbit wasn't herbivorous, it was carnivorous. The only reason it hadn't attacked was because these wild-grown beasts were intelligent. If they instinctively sensed they couldn't win, they'd flee. Especially smaller ones like this, their survival instinct was strong. Upon noticing larger creatures, they'd bolt immediately.
“I'm sorry, Winnie.”
“Why are you apologizing again? Dell, don't do that. A real man acknowledges his mistakes and fixes them next time. Don't keep saying sorry for everything.”
Winnie said this partly to teach Shikondell how to better act like a boy, but clearly, that wouldn't happen overnight.

Anyway, hunting like this was nearly impossible for Winnie now. It wasn't that he couldn't beat the prey, it was that he lacked any ranged attack. He'd have to rely on Shikondell.
If only his [Six Levels of Hell] were available now, things would be much easier.

The two continued walking through the forest. Winnie sensed something was off, he felt as if something was following them.
“Winnie! Something's happening!” Before Winnie could investigate further, Shikondell's voice rang out.
Ahead, they saw a dark-colored deer with three tails. The moment it spotted them, it lowered its antlers, clearly displaying aggression.
“This... might be a Three-Tailed deer,” Shikondell said. “An anomaly among deer, known to be extremely vicious.”

“Oh? Now this is getting interesting.” Winnie twirled his ice spear and stepped forward, provocativelying his finger at the beast.
The three-tailed deer seemed to understand the gesture. It roared furiously and charged forward, hooves raised.
Winnie gripped the spear and, timing it perfectly, swept sideways.

A whirl of ice shards erupted, forming an ice wall that deeply froze the deer's antlers in place.
The deer struggled, trying to pull its antlers free, but in vain. No matter how hard it strained, it couldn't break free from the solid ice.

Although Winnie's soul armament was sealed, he still retained partial strength, his magical attacks remained potent.
Just as Winnie raised his weapon to deliver the killing blow, a flaming crossbow bolt suddenly struck, exploding the deer's body.
When the black smoke cleared, all that remained before Winnie was a charred, lifeless corpse.
“The hell??” Winnie's expression shifted instantly from shock to furious rage.
Damn it. In his past life, he hated nothing more than someone stealing his kill in a game. And in this life, it was no different.
Winnie was livid. He turned toward two figures emerging from nearby bushes.

He recognized them immediately, weren't these the two Tyrell Empire students he'd defeated in combat class?
“Oh? Winnie and Dell? What a coincidence! You're hunting here too?” One of the students approached with an overly familiar smile.
“Heh.” Normally, in such situations, people wouldn't escalate, after all, they were classmates. You'd just glare to warn them off, especially if they might not have meant it.
But Winnie was different.
There's a saying: those without manners rarely suffer, not verbally, at least.
“You son of bitch coincidental?! I'm seriously losing it here! Stealing my kill, do you think you're in wholesale?! Stop flashing that damn smug face! It makes me want to puke, you know?! I'm done. How can someone be this ridiculous? Every expression you make is like you are at your dead mother's funeral!” Winnie abandoned all decorum, unleashing a barrage of verbal abuse with zero restraint.

“Winnie, what are you talking about? We just happened to pass by and saw you struggling, so we stepped in to help,” One student replied, clearly unprepared for such intense verbal assault. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly recomposed himself.
“Coincidence my ass!” Winnie had heard that excuse too many times today, first Aesphyra claimed it was a coincidence, now these two idiots did too.

Damn it, did they think they were the chosen heroine or something? Always “coincidentally” showing up?
“Whatever. Dell, let's go!” Winnie turned and left with Shikondell.
Soon, they encountered a three-eyed monkey with six arms, an entity known as a Spider Monkey.
After several exchanges, just as Winnie was about to land the killing blow, another meteor-like arrow shot out and struck the Spider Monkey dead.

Winnie silently glanced at the zero on his magic card, then turned to see the two Imperial students emerging from the jungle once more.
“Hey! Winnie, it's you again, what a coincidence!” The two laughed heartily.
Winnie tightened his grip on the spear. Now he understood why the rules explicitly forbade attacking fellow students, otherwise, his [Frost Fang] would've already left his hand.
“Are you two seriously trying to provoke me??” Winnie said with a cold, mocking smile.

“Winnie, that's not fair. When did we ever oppose you? Aren't we good classmates? Classmates should support each other.”
“Yeah, hunting together, sharing points. There's strength in numbers, right?” The other chimed in.

“You two? Too weak to win fairly, your skills are garbage, only good at these sneaky tricks. Fits your personalities perfectly,” Winnie leaned on his spear, tilting his head.
“Hey, Winnie, that's going too far.”
“What feelings do we even have between us?” Winnie laughed. “I didn't curse your entire ancestry, that's already me being generous.”
“Come on, Winnie, you're being too petty. It's just a few points. Is it really worth getting this angry?”
“Yeah, way too stingy.”
“Then why don't you just leave now?” Winnie raised an eyebrow.

“No way, Winnie. This isn't your backyard. We can go wherever we want. Do we need your permission?”
“Exactly. The rules clearly allow competition. If you can't defend your prey, that's your own weakness. We're just playing by the rules,” they said with infuriating grins, clearly hoping Winnie would lose control and attack.
“Heh. Two cowardly dogs relying on others' power, just hiding behind the rules, thinking you're untouchable,” Winnie mocked. “Like turtles, it fits your personalities. Like licking dogs who can't get what they want.”
“You!” That hit them hard. They angered up instantly, but quickly regained composure, smirking at Winnie as if to say, 'What can you do?'
“You two... are you really planning to let Winnie and me get zero points?” Suddenly, the usually silent Shikondell stepped forward.
“It's not personal, Dell. We have no grudge with you. But since you are roommates with this guy, collateral damage can't be avoided,” One student shrugged, though his tone carried no remorse.

One student even boldly declared, “If you manage to steal even a single prey today, I’ll remove my mark from my Soul-Tracking Crossbow!”
“Ha ha ha! It will be fun if one of only three Warlock Realm students among the freshmen will end up with zero points? Hahahaha!”

Those two fools were useless except for stealing kills, it was as if their magic came with a built-in “headlock” spell.
If his Soul Armament hadn’t been sealed, everything would’ve been fine. But now…
In that case, it would indeed be tough to compete with them for prey.
Just as Winnie was frowning in frustration, he suddenly felt a hand press down on his shoulder and push him back.
Ėn̆ ù mа̃
Huh?!
Something felt off, but who else would do that besides Shikondell?
Yet, that didn’t fit Shikondell’s usual personality…
Then Winnie saw her, Shikondell, chin lifted, hand still on Winnie’s shoulder, brushing past him as she strode toward the two offenders.

“How about we make a little bet?” Shikondell said with a cool, confident grin.
“Only this time, it’s reversed, I’m betting neither of you will score a single point from now on.”
