It wasn't until around five o'clock in the evening that Qin Shuang and Mu Feng came out of the teaching room. No one knew what had happened in between. However, Mu Feng's muddled mind, which had been clouded by various hints, was finally set straight.

It was already time for dinner at five o'clock, but Mu Feng didn't immediately go to eat. Instead, he went upstairs to check on Xiaojin's condition. Only after seeing Xiaojin lying sound asleep on Chuchun's bed, breathing steadily, did he finally feel completely at ease.

"How is it?" When Mu Feng came downstairs, the girls had already started eating. Qin Shuang and Lily had both expended a lot of energy to help Xiaojin channel the power within her body. However, Qin Shuang still managed to ask Mu Feng while eating.

"Sleeping soundly!" Mu Feng replied with a smile.

"That's good. Don't let Xiaojin play the game tonight; let her rest and recover. And you, don't be too eager. Cultivating special abilities isn't something that can be achieved overnight. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been studying for so long at school!" Qin Shuang advised.

"I understand!" Mu Feng was indeed a bit anxious. Without accumulating small streams, one cannot form a river; without taking small steps, one cannot travel a thousand miles. Cultivating special abilities still required a steady and gradual approach.

"After logging in... what should we do?" Thinking about how their characters in the game were still linked by the Heart Connection, Qin Shuang's face turned red again.

"Hmm..." Mu Feng was also troubled by this peculiar Heart Connection. "Let's see what happens after logging in!" He could only take it one step at a time. Perhaps the Heart Connection would be gone after logging in, and then there would be no need to worry anymore.

After finishing dinner, everyone returned to their rooms to log into the game. Mu Feng originally wanted to pick up his helmet but noticed that a game pod had already been installed in the corner of the room. While he was locked in his room practicing self-suggestion, Qin Shuang and the others had indeed done a lot of things!

"Welcome to the 'Sky' game pod. For your first game, please choose to register. If you already have an account, please choose to log in!" The system prompt sounded as the game pod started for the first time.

"Log in!" Without hesitation, Mu Feng chose to log in. A beam of light scanned his eyes, recording his retinal information.

"Please enter your ID number."

"..." Mu Feng reported his ID number.

"Retinal scan results match the number. Successfully logged in!" The system's prompt sounded, and the darkness in front of Mu Feng immediately turned to light as he successfully entered the 'Sky' game.

"Whoosh!" Mu Feng's figure appeared outside the Jalan Tomb, but Qin Shuang was not by his side, holding his hand. Mu Feng's eyes had been blinded by the Blade of Destruction, granting him the ability of Heart Vision. However, under the system's adjustment, his vision was in black and white, which was a bit strange and required a few seconds to adapt.

"You're finally online!" Qin Shuang was sitting on a nearby rock. She was a bit disappointed to find that the Heart Connection had disappeared upon logging in.

"Good thing it's gone!" Mu Feng breathed a sigh of relief. This way, he could use the Hearthstone to return to the city directly, which was much faster than riding a mount or walking back!

"Let's return to the city!" Both of them used their Hearthstones to return to the city.

"Whoosh!" They appeared in the inn in Thorn City. When they reached the inn's entrance, Lily, Chuchun, and Ye Luochengdie were already there.

"Xiaojin isn't here. How should we proceed today?" Qin Shuang asked Mu Feng.

"What! Xiaojin isn't here?" Ye Luochengdie asked in surprise. The last time Mu Feng and Xiaojin were both absent, it could be explained by some matter, but why was only Xiaojin absent this time?

"Xiaojin played with the helmet yesterday, so she's resting tonight." Mu Feng naturally wouldn't tell Ye Luochengdie about the special abilities.

"I see... Since Xiaojin isn't here, I'll go do my level 30 class quest!" Ye Luochengdie thought for a moment. "After I finish, I can help Xiaojin with her class quest when she logs in tomorrow!"

"Okay, be careful on your journey!" Mu Feng didn't stop her. He had already taught her many things, and she needed to apply and understand them in real combat. The class quest designed for rogues was undoubtedly very suitable.

"Then let's go handle the guild affairs!" Since Ye Luochengdie had a class quest to do, Mu Feng naturally had one too. Qin Shuang and the others decided to handle the guild affairs. The events of yesterday had a significant impact on them, and they were eager to get the guild in order to seek revenge on Ten Directions Annihilation! Although the events had a significant impact on Ten Directions Annihilation, they were still an old guild and hadn't been severely damaged. If they successfully obtained the guild token and established the guild first, they still had a chance to become the top guild in China!

"Hey?" The girls instantly left, leaving Mu Feng alone. He had gotten used to acting in a group recently, and suddenly being alone felt a bit strange. Since Ye Luochengdie was doing her class quest, he might as well do his too. However, he still had a task to turn in first—the Jalan Dynasty task.

"Congratulations on completing the high-difficulty task of clearing the tomb! You have randomly obtained an epic piece of equipment: the Unrivaled Shoulder Guard!"

Unrivaled Shoulder Guard: Leather shoulder guard, level (epic), +89 armor, +27 agility, +30 stamina, 3% critical strike, +3% hit. Required level 30!

It was just the right equipment to use! Mu Feng immediately equipped the Unrivaled Shoulder Guard, replacing the green Forest Mantle, which improved his stats even further.

He couldn't take the new class quest in Thorn City, so Mu Feng had to return to the main city of the elves, Eversong. Fortunately, the flight points to Eversong and Thorn City were already recorded, so he could directly ride the flying mount, saving a lot of time. After dismounting, Mu Feng didn't rush to the class guild but went straight to the Moon Temple with enthusiasm. Unfortunately, Theresa's figure was not there.

With no choice, Mu Feng had to head to the class guild and meet his direct superior, the guild leader Asar!

"Melancholy Wind, long time no see! As I expected, you are the first demon hunter to reach level 30!" Mu Feng's strength no longer needed to be proven; Asar had complete trust in him.

"I'm level 30, but it came at a significant cost!" Mu Feng removed the hood of his cloak, revealing his face. A red scar ran from his right eye across his nose to his left eye, and two eerie green flames replaced his original eyes, looking strange and terrifying.

"You... You actually used the Blade of Destruction to blind your eyes!" Asar was surprised. The last time they met, Mu Feng had clearly said he wouldn't try it easily, yet he had so quickly used the Blade of Destruction to blind his eyes and gain the power of Heart Vision!

"Well... It was due to various reasons. I was forced to do it." Mu Feng said helplessly. "Give me the level 30 class quest. As usual, give me the hardest one."

"Since that's the case..." Asar pondered for a moment. "I have a piece of equipment you urgently need. If you complete this class quest, it will be yours!"

"What equipment?" From Asar's tone, it seemed to be a very impressive piece of equipment!

"Here it is!" Asar took out a long, thin, black leather strip!

"Are you kidding me?" This thing didn't look like anything good!

"Check its attributes!" Asar directly threw the item to Mu Feng.

Dark Ribbon: Leather eye mask, level (legendary)! +56 armor, +45 agility, +50 stamina. After equipping, a demon hunter with Heart Vision can regain color vision!

Shocked! Even just the last attribute, for the current Mu Feng, was the most powerful attribute! "Tell me, what's the quest? I'll go complete it right away!"

"I believe you will succeed!" Asar smiled and handed the task envelope to Mu Feng. "After completing the task, your class badge can be upgraded again!"

PS: I stayed up until 1:30 AM to finally complete the promise! I will continue to update three times tomorrow! However, I will pay attention to efficiency to finish updating earlier.
