I Can Extract Abilities – Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Gaokao Sniping

Hundred Fragrance Pavilion!

This was a relatively high-end restaurant in Chengde County. A meal here might cost half a month’s salary for an ordinary family.

Li Feng and Lin Ling’er casually chose a seat in the main hall.

“Are you that rich?” After sitting down, Li Feng glanced curiously at Lin Ling’er. But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized he had said something pointless.

Lin Ling’er possessed a Beginner Skill, so her background must be extraordinary, since even Yang Wei and Sheng Xu hadn’t been able to acquire one.

Thinking of this, he felt a little depressed again. Why were all the people he met so wealthy?

“It’s alright!” Lin Ling’er was taken aback. No one she had ever interacted with had ever asked her that question.

Li Feng understood. Robbing the rich and giving to the poor was his favorite thing to do. During the days when Yang Wei treated him to meals, he had been eating lavishly at the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion. He directly took the menu, not being polite, and skillfully ordered several dishes from the waiter next to him, then lowered his head to play his game.

Lin Ling’er, watching from the side, felt a bit speechless, but she let him be. She asked curiously, “Do you really like playing games? Why don’t you reveal your strength if you’re so powerful?”

“I don’t like it. My strength isn’t great.” Li Feng replied without looking up, his words as concise as ever.

This answer immediately dampened Lin Ling’er’s desire to ask further. She couldn’t help but touch her face, wondering if her charm had diminished. The atmosphere once again turned cold.

Fortunately, the service at Hundred Fragrance Pavilion was excellent, and the dishes were served quickly.

Li Feng also put down his phone and started eating quietly. He hadn’t had a good meal since last night.

“Tsk tsk, although Chengde County is a bit small, the food here is still very delicious.”

“Of course, some of the entertainment here is quite well done. But this is putting the cart before the horse. Instead of focusing on increasing their strength, they’re focusing on these frivolous things.”

“Haha, don’t say that. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be living so comfortably here. I heard that those two ruthless people are also coming here. I really don’t know what they’re thinking. They could get good results in the Gaokao in Daqian City, but they insist on coming down here to compete with us for spots.”

At a table not far from Li Feng, four young people were feasting and discussing the upcoming Gaokao.

“But the students of Chengde County will be miserable this time. With so many of us coming here, will we make all the high school students here lose face?”

One of the young men, wearing a black T-shirt, chuckled lightly.

“Why care so much? The students of Chengde County are all a bunch of trash. They should give up their spots to avoid wasting food,” someone said disdainfully.

“That’s a bit too much.” Hearing their discussion, Li Feng frowned, his chopsticks pausing mid-air.

It was one thing for these people to come to Chengde County to steal spots, but to openly provoke them like this was simply not putting the students of Chengde County in their eyes. Even someone like him, who usually didn’t like to interfere in other people’s business, felt a bit angry at this moment.

But before Li Feng could stand up, Lin Ling’er, who was sitting beside him, couldn’t take it anymore. She slammed the table and said, “Do you dare to repeat what you just said?”

“Zheng Chang’an, someone is asking you to repeat what you said,” someone in that group teased, full of mockery.

Zheng Chang’an looked at Lin Ling’er and couldn’t take his eyes off her. He smiled and said, “I didn’t expect the food in Chengde County to be good, and there are even beauties of this level. I’m starting to like this place. How about you come over and have a few drinks with us?”

◈◈◈

“You scoundrel!” Lin Ling’er’s eyes were full of anger. Compared to these people, Li Feng was much better.

“Haha, as long as you agree, I’ll allow you to team up with us during the Gaokao. It’s not that I look down on the students of Chengde County. I went to the Dark Cat Forest earlier, and the performance of the students from your three schools was really too poor. I’m afraid any one of us could sweep the floor with all of you.”

Zheng Chang’an laughed loudly, his tone full of confidence. He glanced at Li Feng, who was at the same table as Lin Ling’er, and added, “You should give up on this year’s Gaokao. Otherwise, you’ll only be able to enter the worst academies because we’re taking all the spots for the top academies.”

“Taking all the spots?”

Li Feng slowly stood up. He didn’t look at Zheng Chang’an but looked at Lin Ling’er. “I remember that for this Gaokao, everyone has to wear a Score Counter, right?”

“Yes, that’s right.” Lin Ling’er didn’t know what Li Feng was planning to do for a moment, but she nodded reflexively.

The Gaokao was much more formal than the school’s Summer Dungeon Hunt. Every score was extremely strict. The Score Counter was a mechanical tool specially prepared for the Gaokao. It could clearly record every cat demon killed by a player and include it in the score. It was also to prevent anyone from using cheating methods.

Li Feng nodded in understanding, then looked at Zheng Chang’an and said, “You said we are trash? Do you even have the right to say that? You’re just losers, guys who were eliminated in the competition in the big cities. You come to our Chengde County and have the nerve to boast. If I were you, I would have found a latrine to bury myself in. After doing such a thing, I would be too embarrassed to publicize it.”

“Kid, what did you say? Are you looking for death?” This time, not only Zheng Chang’an but also his three companions stood up angrily.

Because Li Feng’s words had stung them. Unlike Hua An and Luo Feng, they really didn’t have the confidence to compete for top academies there, which was why they came to Chengde County.

“Did I say something wrong?”

Li Feng was not in a hurry. His gaze slowly swept over the four of them and said coldly, “This time, I plan to send you back to where you came from. None of you will pass this Gaokao.”

“You want to snipe us?”

This made Zheng Chang’an and the other three laugh. “With just the trash from Chengde County, you can do that?”

Gaokao sniping was not something that had never happened before. As long as you constantly stole the other party’s monsters and kept their Score Counter at a low level, they would naturally be eliminated.

However, to do this, the sniping party must have overwhelming strength. Otherwise, they would face the risk of retaliation and having their own monsters stolen.

This kind of thankless task was rarely done by anyone. But this time, Li Feng was really angry.

“Kid, I’ll remember your words. Don’t let me see you during the Gaokao. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you get zero points.” Lin Hai said with a cold face.

Zero points meant that the other party would not be able to kill a single creature. For Gaokao students, this was a kind of humiliation.

If you have a ticket, please give me a ticket.
