Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 875: The Crazy Swarm of Bees

Chapter 875: Chapter 875: The Crazy Swarm of Bees

As the saying goes: Once bitten, twice shy.

Having had the experience of the first ti, Qin Sisi was much more proficient the second ti. Although her movent direction still deviated, it was a lot better than the first ti.

The others also gradually found patterns and thods through trial and error and started to realize that Teacher Taitan’s task might not be as difficult as they thought. They all let their guards down and began to speed up the use of the Earth Escape Skill.

The overall process went rather smoothly, and the outco was as expected. Yun Cheng, whose intrinsic attribute was Earth, was the first to complete the ten-round trips, successfully capturing the Tiger head Black Bees each ti.

The other three students who were not punished, An Yun, Qing Pu, and Chu Ming, also completed their ten runs back and forth and left Tiantu Mountain covered in mud from head to toe.

Xiao ng, Ya Ling, Li Li, and Wen Xuan faced double punishnt; after completing twenty rounds back and forth underground, they were all dizzy and gasping for breath.

Ya Ling and Wen Xuan were wearing white clothes. Originally looking ethereal and detached, but after hustling in the mud for a long ti, their clothes had beco unrecognizable, looking utterly disheveled and losing any semblance of their otherworldly charm.

Li Li’s black clothes had turned to the color of gray dirt, and her dusty, mud-streaked appearance looked less cold.

Mud had gotten into Xiao ng’s eyes, forcing her to blink hard for a long ti and even shed a few tears before she could clear the dust from her eyes. She sighed in relief and casually wiped her face; the tears mixed with the mud created long "whiskers" across her face, making her look like a dirty little kitten.

The others, seeing Xiao ng’s appearance, couldn’t help but want to laugh, but then they thought about their own situations and the urge to laugh quickly faded.

Teacher Taitan inspected the Tiger head Black Bees they had brought back, then placed them into his large bottle. When he checked Ya Ling’s box, his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted sternly, "Ya Ling, what happened here?"

Everyone was startled and quickly went forward.

Ya Ling had been using an exquisitely crafted jewelry box; she had searched in her storage ring for a long ti without finding a suitable tool and was afraid of tearing her clothes and ruining her image, so she had reluctantly chosen to use her jewelry box, moving the jewelry to another place.

There hadn’t been any problems initially, but perhaps she was too hurried the last ti she captured a Tiger head Black Bee, causing the jewelry box to close on and trap a bee.

Ya Ling was eager to return and didn’t notice until Teacher Taitan inspected it, by which ti the Tiger head Black Bee was already dead.

Teacher Taitan had made it clear from the start; killing a Tiger head Black Bee was not allowed. Ya Ling had violated the rules.

Faced with Teacher Taitan’s stern look, Ya Ling retorted, "It wasn’t intentional. I didn’t an to trap it; it flew over by itself."

Fury flashed in Taitan’s eyes as he emphasized each word, "I told you, I only look at the results."

Ya Ling pouted and muttered, "It’s just a small bee. Is it really necessary to make such a fuss?"

Teacher Taitan’s expression held a hint of disappointnt, and he said loudly, "Do you think it’s just about a small bee? Ignorance! Tiger head Black Bees have a strong sense of community. When they die, they release a specific scent. When the other Tiger head Black Bees sll this scent, they know one of their group has been killed and they imdiately beco very frenzied, with attack power ten tis stronger than normal."

Everyone was shocked, as under normal conditions, the Tiger Head Black Bees were terrifying enough. It was unimaginable to think of their attack power being multiplied by ten during a frenzied state. If they were now asked to capture the Tiger Head Black Bees, it was likely that none of them could escape being stung.

Ya Ling was at a loss for words, realizing she had indeed caused trouble.

She looked around shiftily for a while, whispering in her own defense, "Teacher Taitan, since almost everyone has completed their tasks, it shouldn’t really affect anything, should it?"

"There’s still Qin Sisi. She has four tis the normal amount of tasks," Taitan said, glaring at Ya Ling displeasedly.

Having accidentally killed a Tiger Head Black Bee, at seeing Teacher Taitan angry, Ya Ling was indeed a bit nervous. However, thinking that Qin Sisi couldn’t complete her task gave rise to a sense of schadenfreude.

She wished Qin Sisi couldn’t finish the task and be expelled from Heaven Academy by Teacher Yusha!

If there weren’t many people around, Ya Ling really wanted to burst into loud laughter. She tried hard to suppress the smile on her lips, cleared her throat, and said, "Qin Sisi is so powerful, she probably won’t mind such a little thing!"

Though the words sounded nice, everyone present could sense the malice behind them.

Apart from her Fire Magic, Qin Sisi’s other Magic Attributes were not strong, not to ntion powerful, and since Teacher Taitan didn’t allow the use of Magic Skills, how could Qin Sisi erge unscathed facing the Tiger Head Black Bees with tenfold increased attack power?

Xiao ng grew more and more angry, biting her lip and asking, "Teacher Taitan, since Ya Ling has disrupted the training environnt, shouldn’t she be punished?"

Teacher Taitan nodded and said, "Right, if you do sothing wrong, you should be punished. Ya Ling, you’re penalized to make two additional round-trips to capture two Tiger Head Black Bees."

"Ah?" Ya Ling was horrified, stuttering, "But... but aren’t the Tiger Head Black Bees already frenzied?"

Xiao ng retorted, "Qin Sisi is just a Junior Magic Instructor, and if she doesn’t mind, then you, as a Senior Magic Instructor, should be even less afraid."

Feeling indignant, Ya Ling glared furiously at Xiao ng. However, at Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, the tasks set by the teacher were mandatory to complete; otherwise, the only option left was withdrawal from school.

After pondering, Ya Ling adopted a pitiful look and pleaded with Teacher Taitan, "Teacher Taitan, I..."

Before she could finish, Teacher Taitan gestured emphatically with his hand and declared loudly, "No need to say more. It’s decided, begin now!"

Ya Ling bit her lip, feeling extrely aggrieved, nearly bursting into tears—she really hadn’t ant to do it, so why the severe punishnt?

Resigned yet hesitant, Ya Ling could only muster her Earth Attribute Magic Power and burrowed into the earth once again.

Just as Ya Ling had burrowed in, Qin Sisi erged from the ground and offered her bottle containing Tiger Head Black Bees to Teacher Taitan. Unaware that the situation had drastically changed, she greeted her classmates with a smile.

Teacher Taitan took one look at Qin Sisi, his expression complex as he transferred the Tiger Head Black Bees into his larger bottle.

Thinking she had completed another task, Qin Sisi was about to turn around and burrow into the earth again when she was stopped by Teacher Taitan and Xiao ng, among others, who all looked at her with worried expressions.
