Chapter 62: Water Curtain Cave Dungeon

Lanting Pavilion!

This was the villa where Luo Xiyun resided. From afar, Li Feng could see a bamboo forest planted within the courtyard, a beautiful scene.

Moreover, this villa’s area was twice as large as the one Cai Yuan owned that he had seen earlier.

“Hmm, Student Li Feng, why are you here?” Just as Li Feng approached the main gate of the villa, he saw a familiar figure walking out.

It was Upperclasswoman Yuwei, whom he had met on his first day of reporting to Jianye Academy.

Li Feng said, “Upperclasswoman Yuwei, I’m here to see Instructor Luo.”

“Hmm, why are you looking for my instructor?” Leng Yuwei asked, puzzled.

Normally, very few people came looking for Luo Xiyun. Her instructor had a naturally cold personality and preferred to cultivate alone. She rarely met with people. In addition to her mysterious background and powerful strength, few people dared to disturb her. Even her own students rarely saw her.

“Luo Xiyun is Upperclasswoman’s instructor.”

Li Feng was surprised by this, but he quickly said, “I’m here to become Instructor Luo’s student.”

He hadn’t expected such a coincidence. The information he had gathered stated that Luo Xiyun had very few students. He hadn’t expected to run into one of her students as soon as he arrived, and it happened to be Upperclasswoman Leng Yuwei.

“You want to become Instructor Xiyun’s student?”

Leng Yuwei was slightly surprised, but she shook her head and said, “You should go back. My instructor never accepts male students.”

“I want to try. At least I want to meet Instructor Luo once,” Li Feng said. He was in a difficult situation now.

Because of the incident with Instructor Xia Yutian, no instructor in Jianye Academy wanted him now.

“Alright, I’ll take you there.” Seeing Li Feng’s determined expression, Leng Yuwei said helplessly, “But you should be prepared to fail.”

Li Feng nodded. Then, under her guidance, he arrived at an ancient pavilion.

In the pavilion, there was a stone table with several stone stools around it. A woman wearing a black veil was sitting there, playing a zither. Pleasant music sounded, and countless birds in the bamboo forest danced to the tune.

Leng Yuwei brought Li Feng to the woman and respectfully said, “Instructor Xiyun!”

“Didn’t you just leave? Why are you back?”

The woman raised her head and looked at Leng Yuwei with a cold gaze. However, when she saw Li Feng, she was slightly stunned. A strange look flashed in her eyes, and she asked, “Who is this student?”

“Instructor Xiyun, his name is Li Feng.”

Seeing Luo Xiyun take the initiative to ask, Leng Yuwei quickly explained Li Feng’s situation and added, “I already told him clearly that you don’t accept male students, but he insisted on trying.”

She was still a little afraid of this cold instructor.

“Hello, Instructor Luo.”

Li Feng stepped forward. Since Leng Yuwei had already explained things clearly, he didn’t need to repeat himself. He directly asked, “Instructor Luo, are you still accepting students?”

However, he was already prepared to be rejected. According to the information he had gathered, this Luo Xiyun had a mysterious background and rarely accepted students. Over the years, she had only accepted a few.

He was just unwilling to give up, so he wanted to try.

“You can.”

Just as Li Feng was feeling uneasy, Luo Xiyun spoke, “But you must first complete an assessment before you can become my student.”

“What?” Hearing this, Leng Yuwei’s mouth fell open in an ‘O’ shape. However, when Luo Xiyun’s gaze swept over her, she quickly covered her mouth.

She was very shocked and suspected that the Luo Xiyun in front of her had been replaced. Luo Xiyun had never accepted a male student before. Was she going to break her own rule?

◈◈◈

If this news got out, it would probably cause a huge uproar.

“What assessment?” Li Feng asked, feeling slightly relieved. If Luo Xiyun didn’t accept him, he would probably fall into Liu Changyue’s clutches.

“There is a Beginner dungeon in Sky City called Water Curtain Cave. A group of wild monkeys lives in the Water Curtain Cave. I want you to go there and bring me the Monkey Wine brewed by the Monkey King.”

Luo Xiyun said calmly. Then, she handed him a white token. “With this token, you can enter this dungeon freely. When you obtain the Monkey Wine, you will become my student.”

Hearing the words “Water Curtain Cave,” Leng Yuwei’s expression changed. She was about to say something, but Luo Xiyun’s cold gaze fell on her, causing her to instantly shut her mouth.

“I understand!” Li Feng didn’t notice this detail. He took the token and looked at it.

He found that this white token was crystal clear, and the character “天” (Sky) was engraved on it. It must be the pass to enter Sky City.

“Alright, if there’s nothing else, you can leave,” Luo Xiyun said lightly, her voice carrying a sense of aloofness.

Li Feng nodded and left.

He felt that something was off about Luo Xiyun today. He looked at the comments on his phone.

“Cold goddess. Only to be admired from afar, not to be approached.”

“Although she is very beautiful, she is an iceberg. If you don’t want to be frozen to death, it’s best to stay away.”

“…”

“Sure enough, rumors stop at the wise. You can’t believe everything on the internet,” Li Feng shook his head. Although Luo Xiyun gave him a cold impression, it wasn’t as exaggerated as the internet said.

After leaving Lanting Pavilion, he didn’t delay any further. He went straight back to his dormitory, planning to discuss forming a team with Zhou Dayu. He felt that it was a bit dangerous to enter a dungeon alone.

Moreover, he had to start creating his fourth game character. With more strength, he could complete the assessment more easily.

He believed that Luo Xiyun’s assessment wouldn’t be that simple.

………

Lanting Pavilion.

“Instructor Xiyun, why did you let him go to the Water Curtain Cave? Isn’t that sending him to his death?” After Li Feng left, Leng Yuwei couldn’t help but ask.

The Water Curtain Cave dungeon was a nightmare for Beginner players in Jianye Academy. Very few people could clear it.

And the Monkey Wine was the Monkey King’s treasure, guarded by him personally. Ordinary people couldn’t even get close to it.

She couldn’t understand. If Luo Xiyun wanted to reject Li Feng, she could have just said so. Why did she give him such a deadly mission?

“I have my own considerations. You can go back now!” Luo Xiyun didn’t explain.

“Yes.” Hearing this, Leng Yuwei’s heart trembled. She remembered that Luo Xiyun was known for being cold and ruthless.

After Leng Yuwei left, Luo Xiyun took out a pink mobile phone and sent a text message to someone.

“How can they look so similar? Could it be…” After sending the message, Luo Xiyun pondered for a while. When she thought of a certain possibility, her brows furrowed, and a hint of killing intent flashed in her eyes. She murmured, “It’s best if it’s not.”

Will Luo Xiyun’s goddess image be ruined if she uses a mobile phone? Alright, a new dungeon is about to begin. Don’t say I’m dragging things out. The previous dungeons were a bit monotonous. In the future, many mythical dungeons will be opened, including prehistoric ones and otherworldly magic worlds. Leave a message if you like any particular type of dungeon, and remember to vote for me. I haven’t recovered yet, so it seems like there will be two updates today as well.

🇰🇷🤝) – I Can Extract Abilities

Status: Completed Author: Native Language: Chinese
The world has digitized, and humanity struggles against the emergence of dangerous monsters through the power of "Players" and dungeons. Li Feng, once a top student, suffers a crushing defeat, and his life falls apart following his parents' death. He retreats into the popular mobile game, Hero Legend, where he discovers he has a unique ability: extracting in-game skills into reality. As graduation nears, Li Feng is forced back into the real world, invited to participate in a "Summer Dungeon Hunt" by a group of notorious classmates - the wealthy but weak Yang Wei and Sheng Xu, and the formidable but enigmatic Qin Anran. Li Feng joins, not for the honors or the chance to redeem himself in the eyes of his peers, but to continue his quest for unique and powerful skills from Hero Legend. He aims to extract powerful skills, level up his in-game character, and dominate the dangerous dungeons, hoping to change his destiny and overcome his past. Li Feng secretly levels up in-game classes like Gunslinger and Assassin, combining their abilities in unexpected ways. As he gains strength and rare skills, he clashes with the school's top prodigy, Lin Ling’er, and her team, while also navigating complicated alliances with his new teammates. He realizes that there is more to his unique talent than he initially thought. Forced to confront the real-world Gaokao (college entrance exam) which focuses on conquering real dungeons, Li Feng finds himself using the skills he's gained from Hero Legend and discovering he is a hidden power. His team, comprised of the lowest-ranked students in the grade, unexpectedly excel, despite Li Feng's seemingly detached nature. As they climb the ranks, their team attracts unwanted attention, including animosity from transfer students from larger cities. Li Feng has to find a way to balance his real life and his digital one, but soon, the two become dangerously intertwined. The Gaokao itself becomes more challenging, not only pitting him against other students but also an unexpected encounter with a transformed Dungeon Boss that will test the limits of his skills. He faces the choice between grinding for power, making money to secure his future, or focusing on the needs of those who rely on him. But when a rare item unexpectedly drops in his lap, Li Feng realizes he may not be as ordinary as he thinks. With his secret advantage, can he claim his place at a prestigious academy, defeat the looming threats, and finally take control of his destiny?
