Ye Chen stepped into the forest.
Before long, Ye Chen spotted a large, imposing black bear staring intently at him.
Monsters in the wild are different from those in beginner dungeons. Monsters in beginner dungeons will not attack humans unless provoked, but most monsters in the wild are aggressive.
The black bear in front of us is also an aggressive monster, which is also to allow novice players to get used to the dangers of the wild in advance.
Black Bear (Normal)
[Level: 8]
[Health Points: 8000]
Attack Power: 620
Physical Defense: 160
[Magic Defense: 80]
[Skills: Roar, Heavy Strike]
With 8000 health points and 160 physical defense, the level 8 black bear's health and physical defense are eight times that of a level 4 wild boar.
"roar!"
The black bear roared at Ye Chen, gaining a power enhancement buff that lasted for 10 seconds, and then charged towards Ye Chen.
However.
Ye Chen had already begun to retreat.
Keep your distance from the black bear.
As an archer, you must always keep your positioning in mind and make the most of kite tactics.
After all, you can only contribute if you're alive.
Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, let alone a black bear. Even though Ye Chen's attributes are far superior to others, he cannot withstand many attacks from the black bear.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
[Battle Prompt: Your skill hit the black bear's weak point, dealing double damage.]
-2398! (weakness)
-2401! (weakness)
-2396! (weakness)
-2399! (weakness)
In less than a second, four arrows were fired at the black bear in quick succession.
The four arrows pierced the black bear's eyes almost simultaneously, penetrating its skull and causing double damage from four weak point attacks, instantly killing the bear.
[Log: Successfully killed the black bear, gained 100,000 experience points.]
Since the black bears' strength has not been weakened and their level is the same as Ye Chen's, each black bear can obtain the full 10 experience points, which, with the system's boost, amounts to 100,000 experience points.
"Next, let's start upgrading our skills!"
"Other professions need to spend about 1 million experience points to upgrade their skills from level 1 to level 10, while I need to spend 10 million experience points."
"Killing a black bear now gives 100,000 experience points, which means I only need to kill 99 more black bears to level up a beginner-level skill to the maximum level. However, the Heart of God talent can break through the skill level cap, so I can keep grinding without wasting experience points."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen put his stored experience points into the experience bar of the Arrow of God.
Although it can only store up to 10 times the maximum amount of experience points, once it gains experience points, it can directly add them to the skill's experience bar with a thought. Once the skill's experience bar is full, the skill will automatically level up.
[Log: God's Arrow upgraded! Experience points -100,000, current level 2.]
【Divine Arrow (Level 2): Active skill. An energy arrow condensed from magic power, consuming 9 mana. The energy arrow has 11% attack power.】
After God's Arrow is upgraded to level 2, the mana cost is reduced by 1 point, and the attack power of Energy Arrow is increased by 1%.
Based on Ye Chen's current attack power of 693, that's equivalent to an increase of 7 points in arrow attack power. Adding the 200% final damage increase from the Heart of God talent, it's still a considerable improvement.
Currently, a single Divine Arrow provides 76 attack points, while the beginner arrows in the storage space only add 1 attack point, which is pitifully small and completely useless to Ye Chen.
After upgrading his skills, Ye Chen closed the attribute panel.
They rejoined the battle.
...
Outside the instance.
All the high school principals in Lincheng gathered here.
They sat around a table, drinking tea and chatting, waiting for the students to emerge from the beginner dungeon.
"I wonder how many levels these kids will reach on the first day."
"Based on past experience, rare professions can generally be upgraded to level 6."
"Ten years ago, Xu Wuming from No. 1 Middle School awakened the hidden profession of Dark Gunner. I remember he leveled up to level 7 on the first day. Now he is a big shot in China."
"Generally speaking, you can basically judge the upgrade speed in the following days from the upgrade speed on the first day."
"If you can't reach level 6 on the first day, you basically have no hope of getting into Longjing University."
"I wonder how many levels Ye Chen from No. 3 Middle School will reach on the first day. His only hidden profession should be no weaker than Xu Wuming from No. 1 Middle School back then."
Once everyone enters the instance, a countdown begins, and they will be automatically teleported out of the beginner instance after 12 hours.
Let's see how many levels we can gain in the first 12 hours.
"Old Bai, I heard that Ye Chen from your No. 3 Middle School went in and soloed it. Why didn't you stop him? Even though it's a beginner dungeon, it's inevitable that you'll encounter some dangers when you're alone. Teaming up will allow you to take care of each other."
One of the school principals looked at Bai Xinyuan with a puzzled expression.
Many principals had witnessed Ye Chen entering the dungeon alone that morning.
Although Ye Chen is the only hidden class, as an archer, his high attack and low health are very obvious characteristics. He will lose health after being attacked by monsters a few times, so soloing in the early stages is not only inefficient, but also very dangerous.
As the principal, Bai Xinyuan should have been well aware of the archer's weaknesses, but he did not stop Ye Chen from soloing the archery challenge. He simply offered some advice and then nothing more.
This left all the principals completely baffled.
Bai Xinyuan looked at the puzzled expressions on the faces of the school principals.
He just smiled helplessly and didn't explain anything further.
He had a pretty good idea of what Ye Chen was thinking, so he simply offered some advice and didn't firmly stop Ye Chen.
After Ye Chen's parents sacrificed themselves in the Abyss Rift, Ye Chen vowed to wipe out the demons of the Abyss, inherit his parents' will, protect humanity, and allow ordinary people to live peacefully in this world.
From then on, Ye Chen was either learning professional knowledge or practicing combat skills.
Others only know that Ye Chen is the number one genius in No. 3 Middle School, but they don't know how much effort Ye Chen has put in behind the scenes.
Ye Chen soloed the dungeon to maximize his level; his goal was not just to get into Longjing University.
Ye Chen not only wants to get into Longjing University, but also wants to become one of the best students there.
For this reason, Bai Xinyuan did not try to dissuade him further.
Thinking of this, Bai Xinyuan let out a heavy sigh.
"Hopefully, Ye Chen knows when to back down and will return safely."
The principals saw that Bai Xinyuan didn't want to say anything more.
They didn't ask any more questions.
