Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

"Ancient battlefield?"

Zhang Jingtian was taken aback; the name of this place was quite unique.

"Yes," the teacher said with an exceptionally serious expression, "Almost every entrance to a Seal Gate is like this, piled up with the blood of the Card Makers from the Ministry of War.

This area within a hundred miles belongs to our territory and can be considered an outpost! So, you'll hardly see any Scourge Legion here."

Zhang Jingtian nodded and then noticed a building in the distance.

"What's that?"

The teacher smiled, "Your eyes are quite good; that's where you'll be staying later. Usually, soldiers live here. Tonight, you all should rest well, and tomorrow, we'll assign you tasks."

"Also, Zhang Jingtian, you and Yang Zheng are responsible for this operation. I won't be accompanying you any further. Tomorrow morning, someone from the Ministry of War will come to replace me."

After the teacher finished speaking, he quickly left.

Zhang Jingtian glanced at the teacher's back and exchanged a look with Yang Zheng:

"You take charge. I was exhausted from being the captain before, and now managing so many people is too much trouble."

Yang Zheng smiled and agreed.

"Then everyone, after going back, hurry up and sleep. Tomorrow probably won't be so easy. I think the Scourge Legion will definitely make some moves."

After the group of students settled into their dorms, a white dove circled above the building for a while before flying into another military camp.

Several middle-aged men in military uniforms were sitting together. After hearing the dove's report, they sneered:

"I knew it; these students are too naive and have no vigilance at all. At the Seal Gate, don't trust anyone.

Didn't they ever suspect that the teacher who led them into the Seal Gate had already been replaced? Perhaps the person who just arranged their itinerary wasn't the original teacher at all, but just a trick."

"Moreover, they moved in without any precautions and didn't even set up traps with spell cards at the entrance. They don't even know they're being monitored by us!

Alas, today's students only have spiritual power, but their combat skills are zero, making them useless!"

After listening, the officer next to him calmly tapped the table with his fingers:

"Well, don't expect too much from them; they're just freshmen."

"Come on!" The hot-tempered officer just now immediately rolled his eyes:

"You don't know how competitive the Scourge Legion is! Children as young as a few years old are already learning how to kill! From childhood to adulthood, they're instilled with hatred, and they can't wait to break out and kill our people!

But we here are always unwilling to reveal the truth and still fabricate lies to numb ordinary people. If you ask me, all Card Makers should have come here to see and feel the cruelty of the world instead of living in a utopia!"

"Then what do you think should be done?"

The other officers also felt that what he said made some sense; it's always better to educate these flowers in a greenhouse than to have them educated by the Scourge Legion.

"Let's launch a surprise attack at three in the morning tonight! The troops will definitely arrange for someone to keep watch, but they certainly won't have that idea!"

At the same time, Lou Lan, who had been standing outside bathing in the moonlight, walked up behind Zhang Jingtian.

"You said a bird just flew away; is it a spirit like you?"

Zhang Jingtian touched his chin and suddenly smiled, "Looks like someone is monitoring us."

Speaking of which, we were indeed too careless after arriving in an unfamiliar environment. We should have used some spell cards to set up the place."

Yang Zheng's face turned red; he had actually forgotten too.

Too many things had happened today, constantly impacting his brain and making him completely forget to think.

Then, several of them took out some protective spell cards and stuck them outside the dormitory.

"Can we still sleep tonight?"

Everyone was an elite student, after all, and after being reminded by Zhang Jingtian, they immediately came back to their senses.

Everyone followed suit and summoned their strongest spirits.

Compared to the consumption of spiritual power, survival was obviously more important.

"Arrange for someone to keep watch!" Zhang Jingtian immediately said, "Tonight, it'll be me, Yang Zheng, Bai Xiaoyue, Wei Yingyue, Ding Xiaoyu, and…"

Zhang Jingtian called out a total of ten names, all of whom he was relatively familiar with.

Those who were named nodded in agreement with Zhang Jingtian's arrangement.

Daji was also summoned by Zhang Jingtian. She gently brushed Zhang Jingtian's body with her big tail and whispered, "Are we going to fight again tonight?"

"Maybe, let's just go all out when the time comes."

In the middle of the night, Ding Xiaoyu, who was originally sitting outside with Zhang Jingtian, had already started snoring.

Zhang Jingtian was speechless, and Wei Yingyue next to him smiled, "I find that he has a pretty good attitude; he can even fall asleep at a time like this."

"That's what it's like to be carefree." Lou Lan, who was next to Zhang Jingtian, suddenly moved.

Zombies are nocturnal animals, so her senses are more sensitive at night.

"Someone's coming." Lou Lan said in a cold voice.

Zhang Jingtian chuckled, "They really came to ambush us; it looks like they're planning to teach us a lesson. Then, we can't be looked down upon either."

Those officers certainly wouldn't come in person; their lowest strength is Emerald, coming here would be a dimension reduction strike, so they sent a team of soldiers over.

Spirits who are good at ambushes, at this time, blended into the night and began their attack.

However, what was unexpected was that Zhang Jingtian had already been waiting there.

Lou Lan confirmed the direction, and Daji directly used her skill, throwing foxfire over.

The soldiers' expressions changed:

"Not good! They're not asleep; they're prepared!"

Immediately afterward, Bai Xiaoyue threw out several aggressive spell cards and then directed her spirit to help Daji finish them off.

These few people had experienced the University League, and their teamwork was no worse than these soldiers.

In addition, they were ambushing here, occupying the advantage of the terrain.

No one expected that this surprise attack by the Ministry of War would end in failure.

The officers who learned the result didn't know whether they should be happy or speechless.

But they were clear that they had indeed underestimated this group of Card Academy students.
