"Where are you going?"

"Hand over your student card. You haven't forgotten your wager, have you?"

Nangong Ling watched as Chu Qiu was about to escape, her expression turning cold as she spoke icily.

As a third-year student and someone ranked within the top hundred at Shenxiao, Nangong Ling's fame had long been established.

However, the places she usually appeared were always the upper levels of the Dungeon Sanctuary.

There's no need for her to clear the dungeons on the first floor anymore.

As she suddenly spoke, the surrounding crowd that had been watching finally took note.

They then realized that this school beauty from Nuwa Academy had come here with Lin Yi.

Chu Qiu felt as if he had plunged into an ice cave.

Nangong Ling's warmth and friendliness towards Lin Yi were reserved solely for him.

To everyone else, Nangong Ling was famously cold and indifferent.

Imposing with a fifth-turn strength, Chu Qiu dared not act rashly.

His trembling hand could only reach out to hand over his student card.

Nangong Ling gestured, and Chu Qiu's student card was transferred to her using some skill.

Then, staring at Chu Qiu, she coldly said, "For the next month, your dungeon entry slots will be transferred to Junior Lin Yi by the sanctuary's operations department."

"Afterward, there will be someone to deliver your student card back to you."

"Now, scram."

Chu Qiu was drenched in sweat.

He slunk away dejected and embarrassed.

After dealing with everything, Nangong Ling turned around to face Lin Yi again.

Only to find that Lin Yi had disappeared.

All that was left was the faintly shimmering light screen of the Sky Temple dungeon.

...

Inside the Sky Temple dungeon.

The Gale Wings behind Lin Yi were flapping furiously, increasing his speed to its limit.

Yet Lin Yi still felt it was a bit slow.

He pulled out a wooden sword from his portable space.

Wind Attribute Tier Six [Swift Wind Flash] was invoked by him.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Yi surged forward by an immense distance!

Then Thunder Element Tier Six [Thunderbolt Flash] was also used by Lin Yi.

Lin Yi's figure transformed into a dazzling flash of lightning, flickering to a spot on the staircase with a roar.

After confirming that he broke his own record and earned some academic credits,

a thought surged in Lin Yi's mind at that moment.

That was, he could just earn credits through this score-boosting method!

The first attempt is unfamiliar, but the second becomes routine.

After having cleared the Sky Temple dungeon twice and combined with the strategies he had read before.

Lin Yi already knew where he could optimize the speedrun efficiency.

First, there's no need to kill the monsters on the long stairs and the Gatekeeper Eric in front of the temple gate.

His wave strategy could perfectly drag the Gatekeeper along into the inner temple maze.

This idea was put into practice by Lin Yi on his second Sky Temple run.

It even achieved outstanding results.

Which meant that Gatekeeper Eric, without being slain, allowed Lin Yi to enter the temple.

The activated battle mode shifted from Clear Mode to Annihilation Mode.

Its speed and attack power increased significantly.

With broad and powerful attacks, it crashed through violently.

It could even shatter the structure inside the temple.

This should be a special mechanism inherent to this dungeon.

The purpose is to increase the difficulty for teams attempting to bypass this boss and immediately tackle the boss further in, speeding up the walkthrough.

But for Lin Yi, this mechanism made it so he didn't need to traverse the maze on the second map.

It greatly saved time.

He just needed to fly forward with all his might.

Meanwhile, he dispatched Lin You to draw the attention of other small monsters in the temple.

Because Lin Yi discovered that if he didn't kill enough small monsters inside the temple, Kernge's tentacles wouldn't appear.

The entire dungeon would stall there.

Without advancing an inch.

So, Lin Yi released Lin You, who, with her nimble movements, helped him attract the monsters.

After they teamed up,

Eric the Gatekeeper used various charge skills to help him demolish the temple buildings, bypassing puzzles, rushing to the first stone platform deep within the temple in just seconds.

Then, several Ten Directions Thunder Prison were cast down.

The hundreds of monsters trailing behind, along with Eric the Gatekeeper, were all wiped out by a single AOI attack.

Halfway through slaying the monsters, Kernge's tentacles would appear.

The follow-up skill damage from the previously cast Ten Directions Thunder Prison was enough to instantly kill the second boss!

At this point, both bosses, along with the hundreds of small monsters across two maps, were entirely slain, all in just over a minute.

After dispatching Kernge's tentacles, fly into the sacrificial tower of the temple.

Lin Yi checked the watch on his wrist.

It had only been 1 minute and 33 seconds since he entered the dungeon.

Leaving him nearly a minute to spare compared to the record he set previously.

Lin Yi wasn't in a hurry to kill the priestess.

Enduring her countless skills, he went AFK.

When the time elapsed reached close to 2 minutes and 30 seconds, precisely timed, he sent her flying with a few instant-cast Tier Six thunder skills.

Exiting the dungeon.

The refresh notification for the dungeon record rang out.

Only about a second ahead of the last time.

250 academic credits credited.

Lin Yi didn't hesitate and re-entered the dungeon.

Following the same method again.

Cleared the dungeon.

And so...

For the entire ten-plus minutes following.

Every couple of minutes.

The entire Dungeon Sanctuary heard the announcement of the Sky Temple's record being refreshed.

The bystanders who had returned to their own dungeon routines were bewildered again.

Because with a little recall,

they realized that each record refresh was only a breakthrough of fractions of a second.

It was clear that Lin Yi was intentionally controlling the record progression!

And every refresh meant 250 academic credits were added!

Over these ten-plus minutes, he had already earned over a thousand credits!

Far faster than their rate of earning credits!

What the hell!

Is this even doable?!

Nangong Ling was also stunned!

This junior's operation surely made her see him in a new light.

...

Nuwa Academy.

In the Dean's office of Lan Ruoxi.

A person, drenched in sweat, was complaining to Lan Ruoxi.

"Mr. Lan, have your academy's new student scale back his Divine Power!"

"We've just received nearly a thousand complaints now."

"They all claim there's a bug in our dungeon reward credits mechanism being exploited by your new student..."

The person was a minister responsible for maintaining and operating the Dungeon Sanctuary's related mechanisms at the Shenxiao Dungeon's operations department.

They just received countless complaints from students across Shenxiao.

Saying someone was exploiting a bug to earn points.

But upon detailed investigation, they found, what the hell is this bug?!

Because the record for the Sky Temple dungeon had existed for decades.

Each refresh, at most, was broken once or twice.

That was pretty much it.

They never expected someone could one day clear this dungeon in under three minutes.

Even the true limit of the one who cleared it might be far beyond this three-minute record.

So, continuously using the record refresh method to earn credits.

Lan Ruoxi sat in her chair, listening with great interest.

After listening, she spread her hands: "I don't understand why you're handling such complaints."

"How is this utilizing a bug?"

"Isn't this a reasonable use of the rules you've set?"

"If those complainants are dissatisfied, they could entirely use this method to earn credits themselves!"
