Chapter 243: Practical Course Mission

Chapter 243 Practical Course Mission

Li Wei's face lit up with joy, finally encountering a practical course mission.

Sean issued the practical course mission to all second-year students of the Red Class.

After reviewing the mission content, Li Wei hurriedly rushed to the Element Tower.

The Red Class students gathered in the square outside the Element Tower, then followed Sean to the secret realm where the practical mission lay.

According to the background description of the practical course mission.

This secret realm was not an independent space.

But rather a patch of land circled off within the Ancient Battlefield by the Element Tower using special means.

This area was specifically used to train the students' practical combat abilities.

The monsters within the secret realm would not be too powerful.

Through artificial segmentation, it was just suitable for first to third-tier mages to explore.

"Going to fight skeletons!"

When Li Wei arrived at the gathering point, everyone was very excited.

Many people preferred the thrill of magically bombarding enemies.

Disliking sitting idly in classrooms learning magical theory.

Sean walked over wearing a purple mage robe.

Li Wei turned to look, the badge on his chest was engraved with five shining stars.

This represented that he was a fifth-tier mage.

Li Wei was somewhat surprised.

How had a fifth-tier mage fallen to teaching the Red Class?

Most class instructors were fourth-tier mages.

Only a few classes, such as the Blue Class or Purple Class, would have fifth-tier mages as teachers.

A seventh-tier mage was a Legendary Mage.

In this era where Legends were hard to produce.

A fifth-tier mage was already considered top-tier combat power.

A sixth-tier mage was a pinnacle existence.

For such a powerful mage to be the teacher of the worst class was truly inappropriate.

Li Wei did not know what hidden circumstances lay within.

Sean walked over, swept his gaze across the crowd, and said, "We won't wait for those who haven't arrived, let's go."

The crowd arrived at the secret realm square.

Sean opened a secret realm teleportation gate in the southwest corner.

He walked into the teleportation gate first.

No one else moved, all turning their heads to look at Li Wei.

Feeling the gaze of the crowd, Li Wei stepped out of the group and walked toward the teleportation gate.

After previous events, the Red Class students vaguely regarded Li Wei as the class boss.

Taking the lead in all things.

Passing through the secret realm teleportation gate.

Li Wei stepped onto a desolate land.

The soil beneath his feet was black.

Rumor had it that every inch of soil in the Ancient Battlefield was filled with blood.

Hundreds of years passed, the bright red soil also turned black.

Digging down one meter, one could still see black soil.

Rumor or truth, impossible to distinguish.

Rustle rustle rustle!

Li Wei saw several dry bones lying on the ground not far away climb up.

Bluish soul flames emerged from the skeletons' eyes, stumbling toward him with faltering steps.

Undead creatures naturally harbored hostility toward living beings.

Li Wei took one look, not paying too much attention.

A few zero-tier skeleton monsters, not worth fearing.

Soon, other students also entered the secret realm.

Seeing the skeleton monsters approach, someone couldn't help but step out to show off.

"Wind Blade Spell!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Several wind blades shattered the skeleton monster's body.

That person turned proudly to look at Li Wei, seemingly seeking credit.

Sean stood aside and reminded, "To kill a skeleton monster you must destroy their soul flame, merely damaging the body is meaningless."

The words had just fallen.

A rustling sound came from not far away.

The skeleton monster shattered by wind blades just now stood up again.

Only a few bones severed by the wind blades were missing from its body.

Hearing this, the crowd all reacted.

Li Wei raised his hand and threw a small fireball. Boom!

One small fireball blasted three skeleton monsters into powder, the soul flames also dissipating in the explosion.

The crowd showed expressions of surprise.

Seeing this, Sean smiled and said, "Of course, if your spell power is strong enough, there is no need to consider this point."

Hearing this, the crowd's hearts shook.

Was Teacher Sean praising Li Wei?

This was the first time everyone had seen Sean praise someone.

Sean turned to look at the vast secret realm and said, "Alright, begin the practical course mission."

"Pay attention to safety, although I will watch from the side, I may not be in time to save people."

"Never be careless; upon encountering enemies beyond your capability, call for reinforcements immediately."

"Though there are no overly powerful skeleton monsters in this secret realm, fourth-tier ones still exist; do not venture too deep."

Hearing this, Li Wei thought of the practical course's mission in his mind.

The first mission was to clear one hundred zero-tier skeleton monsters.

The undead aura of the ancient battlefield was too dense; new undead creatures were born at regular intervals.

Among them, the most numerous were the skeleton monsters.

To avoid the skeleton monsters accumulating in too great a number, leading to a skeleton sea.

Thus, the Element Tower would regularly clear the skeleton monsters within the ancient battlefield, reducing the number of undead creatures.

Keeping the number of undead creatures in the ancient battlefield within a relatively safe range.

Completing the first mission rewarded one credit.

The second mission was to kill twenty first-tier skeleton monsters.

Completing the mission rewarded three credits.

The third mission was to kill second-tier skeleton monsters.

For every second-tier skeleton monster killed, one could obtain 0.25 credits.

The fourth mission was to kill third-tier skeleton monsters.

For every third-tier skeleton monster killed, one could obtain 0.5 credits.

The fifth mission was to kill fourth-tier skeleton monsters.

For every fourth-tier skeleton monster killed, one could obtain 3 credits.

Completing any single mission counted as completing this practical course.

It would add points during the year-end grand examination.

The higher the completion rate of the course mission, the higher the added points.

Compared to studying a theoretical course, then passing an exam to obtain 0.5 or 1 credit.

Obtaining credits through the practical course was easier for many people.

While Li Wei was pondering, the crowd had already sprung into action.

Many chose to form teams, cooperating with each other to complete the missions.

Most people's targets were the first two missions.

Clearing one hundred zero-tier skeleton monsters and killing twenty first-tier skeleton monsters.

Whether one could encounter and kill a second-tier skeleton monster depended on luck.

Boom boom boom! Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Crackles! Rumbles!

Various elemental magics flew wildly within the secret realm.

The commotion of battle woke the skeleton monsters within the secret realm.

More and more skeleton monsters climbed up, surrounding the crowd.

Looking out, there were at least several thousand skeleton monsters.

Further away, a large number of skeleton monsters were still approaching.

There was no worry whatsoever about the quantity of zero-tier and first-tier skeleton monsters being insufficient.

Instead, one had to worry about the skeleton monsters being too numerous, exhausting mana and encountering danger.

The human wave tactic had always been the skeleton monsters' classic strategy.

It was also the most effective tactic.

Skeleton monsters were weak, but could overwhelm many powerful enemies through numerical superiority.

Even the strongest enemies had moments of exhaustion.

As undead creatures, skeleton monsters possessed nearly infinite stamina.

And recuperative power comparable to an immortal body.

Unless the soul flame was destroyed, skeleton monsters could be reborn infinitely.

While the crowd was tensely dealing with the skeleton ocean.

Li Wei walked alone toward the depths of the secret realm.

Fire Snake Technique!

A fire snake swam before Li Wei, clearing the path.

Devouring and burning low-level skeleton monsters.

As long as the firepower was sufficient, there was no need to specifically target the soul fire.

When poor, strike precisely; when rich, cover with firepower.
