Chapter 5: Surprise and Praise! Daily Experience Boost!
As soon as Red Dress Tongtong killed the ghost, the red dress quickly faded, turning back into a white dress.
Then, she transformed into a white light and returned to the bow tie in Lin Feng’s hand.
“Calm down, the malevolent spirit has been killed,” the red paper man’s voice sounded.
In the classroom, many students had already seen what happened, their eyes wide as they stared at Lin Feng.
“You are excellent,” the red paper man said, with a hint of surprise and admiration.
“Ghost controllers also have talent. Powerful ghosts can only be controlled by powerful ghost controllers. You’ve just awakened your ghost, yet it already has ordinary-level strength and even has two forms. This is very rare and speaks of your excellence.”
The red paper man did not hesitate to praise Lin Feng.
The other students in the classroom looked at Lin Feng with expressions of amazement, envy, and admiration.
“But what’s even rarer is your courage! In comparison, the rest of you seven are nothing but cowards!” The red paper man’s voice suddenly became stern as it scolded the other seven students.
Those seven students immediately lowered their heads in shame.
“Malevolent spirits are generally stronger than benevolent ones. However, even though this malevolent spirit had reached the ordinary grade, if you eight who awakened your ghosts had worked together, you could have subdued it. But instead of acting, you ran around like headless chickens, screaming. It’s truly disgraceful,” the red paper man harshly criticized.
The seven students lowered their heads even more.
The red paper man then turned its gaze back to Lin Feng, clearly satisfied, and then looked around the room.
“After today, you are no longer students but official ghost controllers. Take a day off tomorrow. The day after, report to the outer city, where you will learn how to deal with ghosts. A ghost controller can only grow through battles against ghosts. Alright, that’s all for today!”
“Um… excuse me, what about us?” at this moment, a student wearing a shroud who had yet to awaken his companion ghost asked.
“You have one year. If you still can’t awaken your ghost after a year, head to the inner city,” the red paper man replied.
“A year… what if it doesn’t respond to me?” the student asked, looking troubled.
“Then wear the shroud every day,” the red paper man responded, then ignored the student. After one last glance at Lin Feng, it walked out of the classroom.
As soon as the red paper man left, several uniformed people entered the classroom and carried away the bodies of the two deceased students.
What happened today left a significant impact on these students, who had just turned 15, enough to change many of their lives.
Out of more than forty students, only eight successfully awakened their companion ghosts and became ghost controllers.
Thirteen lost their chance forever, and the remaining students only had one year left.
Even with the system’s training… in this world, becoming a ghost controller was still challenging and required a lot of luck!
—
“Lin Feng, you’re amazing~”
“Yeah, Brother Feng, when you go to the outer city, take me with you~”
“……”
After the red paper man left, several students who had become ghost controllers immediately surrounded Lin Feng, praising him.
As for the other students… they were no longer qualified to stand with them.
Lin Feng wasn’t interested in their flattery and left the classroom directly, returning to his dormitory.
Back in his dormitory, Lin Feng took out the bow tie.
“Tongtong, Tongtong,” Lin Feng called out.
But…
The bow tie didn’t respond.
Just as Lin Feng was about to give up, Tongtong, dressed in her white dress, appeared and stared at Lin Feng with an expressionless face.
The temperature in the dormitory dropped noticeably as soon as Tongtong appeared.
“Tongtong, you did great today,” Lin Feng said.
Tongtong remained unresponsive.
Lin Feng continued to talk to her.
But after a few minutes, Tongtong still showed no reaction.
“Do ghosts… have no consciousness?” Lin Feng wondered.
Or was it that Tongtong was too weak now, so she had no consciousness?
[You communicated with Tongtong for ten minutes. Ghost Spirit Experience +5, Bond +1.]
At this moment, the system’s voice suddenly sounded.
Huh?
Even daily conversations can increase experience?
