My Dual-Cultivation System

Chapter 69 Students' Hard Struggle At The Riverside

After the students finished their conversation with the villagers they headed towards the village's head house, unlike Ling'er's team who directly went there to get the mission as the trio already knew where they should go first.

Ling'er noticed a total of six different groups had already arrived. This confirmed that there were other teams too who prepared to wake up early in the morning to start their journey for the silver moon village just like her and Wang Min's team.

As the Shangguan Sisters were standing, they saw a familiar figure coming in their direction with his group.

It was Wang Min who had just come out of Village's head house as he acquired the information about their special mission.

Seeing the person he wanted to marry, he started going toward her, he was delighted to see that Yue Yan was not with her.

"I didn't expect you guys to arrive here before us. We were really fast with our journey yet we lost to you guys." Wang Min said, covering his words with honey to sound pleasing to her.

Shangguan Bing'er stepped back as she saw the two boys and two girls approaching her beautiful sister. Ling'er could see how the white-haired beauty had started getting nervous around them and took her distance to separate her.

'What happened to her again? She was okay last time but she started distancing herself again.'

The girl raised her eyebrows but didn't point it out as she was standing in front of strangers and didn't want to say it out loud.

"Yeah, My darling found a shortcut so we reached here earlier than expected," Ling'er said as she didn't think to reveal Yue Yan's secret which was also their strength to do this special task so it was better to hide their advantages from their competitors.

Hearing the 'Darling' word caused Wang Min's face to drown in bitterness as he didn't like that boy who came between his plan to marry Shangguan Ling'er.

"We are going to try finishing Blocking Boulder's quest first. If you 'sisters' want, you can join us. We heard from the village head that it will require many teams to work together so why not you two support us from the side?

I will also ask the other team leaders who have already arrived in the village to work together with us to finish this quest so we can then focus on our second task without worrying about this water problem the villager are facing."

Wang Min explained his plan as he thought more helping hands would help to finish the task as the Village head had informed him. He also wanted to include the crimson-haired beauty so she would have a better impression of him since she could receive points for finishing the blocking boulder task given by the Tianhai academy to their second-year class.

"Okay, We will join. Let me call Yue Yan." The girl agreed but she was going to bring her fake boyfriend along as he was also part of their team.

"That Trash would only become a burden, I don't even understand how he get admission at the Tianhai Academy" Meng Hu complained, his voice filled with sourness as he was standing behind Wang Min.

"Don't talk bad about my Yue Yan, He is not a burden, he is our team member and I can confidently say he is a lot better than you all," Ling'er spoke in a fierce tone as she saw how Yue Yan's stepbrother was talking ill about him.

Just as they were talking, a voice sounded from a few meters away, "Don't worry, I won't interfere. You guys can try on your own to take care of the boulder."

The five of them were surprised as they heard the sudden response and Everyone turned towards the eastern side from where the person's voice came.

Yue Yan was coming in their direction to meet the Shangguan Sisters as the door was fixed, he heard their conversation and decided to answer Meng Hu.

The boy knew very well that just five of the team together wouldn't be able to fix the boulder from the river so he withdraw his name from participating and wanted to watch them making fool of themselves.

"That's better. He won't be joining us. We should ask other team leaders so we can attempt to finish this task as soon as possible." Wang Min said to his team members and Ling'er as he was delighted that the crimson-haired beauty's lover wasn't going to join them.

He walked away from them to approach other teams as he needed to gather them all for this quest.

Meng Siblings gave a venomous gaze towards Yue Yan before also walking away from where the Shangguan Sisters were standing.

When Yue Yan approached the girls, Ling'er gave him perplexed look and asked suspiciously, "Why did you refuse to participate?"

"I don't want to make fool of myself by doing something that won't be happening with help of just five team members." He said casually and told her clearly the bitter truth.

The girl didn't believe him and said, "But if they succeeded then we won't get any point."

"You can join them when they do it, I will stay out of it and watch you guys. Our team will still get points if you are helping them even if they successfully finish this quest as you believe they might. But I am warning you this won't work so I won't participate." Yue Yan declared as he already predicted the outcome of their blocking boulder quest.

"Okay, I am going to join them. However, Bing'er will not come with me to do this task as she can not stay around others." The crimson-haired beauty spoke in a tender voice, she noticed that Bing'er had come to stand alongside her and was comfortable around this boy.

"Okay... After you guys fail we can go out of the village to do our task." Yue Yan said in a casual tone as if it was already fixed they would not able to do anything about the boulder.

'Why is he talking with so much certainty that we will surely fail.'

Ling'er wasn't able to understand his reasoning for why he would say such things without even attempting the collaboration with other teams.

After twenty minutes passed, Wang Min had already convinced and talked to all the teams that had arrived at the village.

There were a total of seven teams including his and Ling'er's group but to do the task there were only twenty-four members as Bing'er and Yue Yan wasn't joining and one of the arrived team had three members.

All of them traveled outside the silver moon village to enter the forest and reach the quest area where the boulder had crashed into the river, blocking the stream of water.

Wang Min and the group of students found the massive stone that was situated in the river, preventing water from reaching the village.

The students were eager and determined to remove the boulder to restore the flow of water for the villagers to finish their very first task when most second-year teams were still on their way to the silver moon village.

Wang Min, the one who convinced them all, stepped forward and tried to push the boulder with all his might and attempted to lift the boulder. His Spirit skill gave him super strength so he was going to attempt this quest with brute force. He gritted his teeth and strained his muscles, but the boulder did not budge.

"Come guys and give me a hand." The Long-haired boy yelled in frustration as he was trying all alone.

Soon other students joined in and used their own spirit skills to support the boy.

A girl with the telekinesis spirit spell tried to move the boulder using her spiritual power. She focused all her mental energy on the boulder, but it remained firmly in place.

Another boy, who could control the wind element, raised his hands and summoned a gust of wind to push the boulder.

The wind whipped around the boulder, but the massive stone stood in its place like an iron fortress castle that was hard to infiltrate. The boy tried again, increasing the intensity of the wind, but the gusts of air current merely bounced off the massive rock.

There was a thin boy with the ability to manipulate fire who attempted to heat the boulder until it cracked and broke apart, but the intense flame only managed to singe the surface of the rock.

When this boy was trying, others had to back off as the boulder was blazing in flame but when he gave up others started trying again as the boulder became touchable soon due to the pool of water that was accumulated because the stream of the river was blocked here.
