Chapter 38: Everyone Was Shocked



Chapter 38: Everyone Was Shocked

"I’m going to kill all of you!"

Li Xiaofei executed the Great Strength Vajra Fist and blood spattered everywhere. The Blood-Eyed Dense Wolves were blasted into smithereens one after another.

He felt his blood boiling, his fighting spirit soaring.

"Hahaha, be shattered under my divine fist. But they’re too weak, it\'s not satisfying enough."

Li Xiaofei\'s manic laughter echoed in the Dark Wind Forest as he fell victim to his severe chuni syndrome again.

***

"Phew, this Dark Wind Forest is just too terrifying," Ren Dong sighed.

Pale blue data streams flickered as the big-headed loli, Ren Dong, appeared in her initial virtual base. A few seconds earlier, she had been torn apart by a wolf pack in the second-level trial, Dark Wind Forest, forcing her to end the trial. She had even lost 2 percent of her ranking points.

"I only lasted six minutes this time. As expected, it\'s really tough to clear a second-level trial at the seventh stage of the Qi Refining Realm," said Ren Dong

She clenched her small, fair fist, encouraging herself. In the trial, dying meant she had to wait for an hour before continuing the trial. Ren Dong immediately opened the rankings. Just then, a message from the world channel sounded in her virtual base.

"Congratulations to Liuhe Base City user, Your Grandpa, for clearing the high school ranking\'s first-level trial, Stormy Snow Mountain, in nine minutes and eleven seconds, receiving a Transcendent rating."

Ren Dong was momentarily taken aback. Passing the first-level trial in just nine minutes and eleven seconds? The short clear time was one thing, but receiving a Transcendent rating was simply astonishing.

A short clear time alone didn\'t guarantee a Transcendent rating. Instead, the light-core host evaluated all aspects of the user\'s performance during the trial, deeming the challenger to possess exceptional potential before awarding the highest rating.

A high school student with a Transcendent rating was undoubtedly a genius among geniuses. Ren Dong couldn\'t help but feel a surge of frustration, clenching her small fists tightly. Geniuses were truly infuriating creatures. Their existence seemed to highlight just how ordinary and mediocre you were. And to think that this person even chose a ridiculous name like Your Grandpa.

How casual could they be?

However, in less than ten minutes, the world channel\'s broadcast message sounded again.

"Congratulations to Liuhe Base City user, Your Grandpa, for completing the high school ranking\'s second-level trial, Dark Wind Forest, in seven minutes and twenty-one seconds, receiving a Transcendent rating."

Ren Dong was completely stunned when she heard the broadcast message.

A second-level trial, and it was a Transcendent rating again?

Even more astonishing was that they had cleared it in just seven minutes and twenty-one seconds, which was even faster than the first-level trial, Stormy Snow Mountain.

Was this... a joke?

At Qishen Academy, in the Noble Student Apartments.

A young man with a shaved head and phoenix eyes yawned widely.

"These points trials are so boring," he muttered.

He had just cleared the third-level trial, the Desolate Graveyard, and found it too easy. He was about to log off when...

"Congratulations to Liuhe Base City user, Your Grandpa, for completing the high school ranking\'s third-level trial, Desolate Graveyard, in five minutes and twenty seconds, receiving a Transcendent rating."

The lazy expression on the young man\'s face instantly froze. He thought he had misheard.

Five minutes and twenty seconds for a Transcendent rating? The light-core system must be malfunctioning.

He looked at his own score and muttered, "Ten minutes and forty seconds, Upper Limit rating."

This score, which would make many high school students in Liuhe Base City look up in awe, now felt like it was mocking him for his arrogance and ignorance.

Who is it? Who exactly is this person achieving a Transcendent rating in five minutes and twenty seconds?

The young man with phoenix eyes immediately thought of several top genius high school students in the city. It had to be one of them.

He vowed fiercely to himself. "I, Yun Qi, am also a top genius in the high school rankings of Liuhe Base City. I’m not inferior to anyone else."

He was gripped by a new sense of urgency. The lazy and proud expression on his face quickly vanished. He immediately re-entered the light-core virtual world as he started to grind for more points.

At Nanshan High School.

"Three consecutive Transcendent ratings?"

In the top independent training room, known as the Peak of Nanshan, the number one genius, Zhou Yunong, also saw the world broadcast from the light-core system.

"And it\'s someone from Liuhe Base City. Heh, interesting. It seems this year\'s High School War God League won\'t be so boring after all. I can\'t wait to face him."

His eyes burned with intense anticipation.

***

At Hongye High School.

The young and beautiful principal, Xiao Hongye, slowly put down her mobile light-core device.

Three Transcendent ratings in less than half an hour. If nothing unexpected happens, this Your Grandpa user will be a strong contender for the top three in the solo combat mode of this War God League. If only I could find out who this person really is.

Her long, slender legs, clad in black silk, crossed and pressed against each other as she gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Her pearly white teeth lightly bit her crimson lip as she pondered.

Xiao Hongye was famously known as a strong woman. Her greatest talent was poaching. She would spare no expense to lure geniuses from other schools to Hongye High School. After all, she had sworn to make Hongye High School the top institution in Liuhe Base City.

Now, she was interested in this user named Your Grandpa. A woman\'s intuition told her that Your Grandpa was likely a newcomer. These sudden rising stars were the best to poach. She decided to take action.

***

At the Ye Family, Duxing High School, the top-ranked noble school in Liuhe Base City. In the Principal\'s office.

Dean Ye Xinyu was holding the preliminary investigation report as he said. "I\'ve already asked around; this Your Grandpa is not a student of Duxing High School, nor of any of the other affiliated schools,"

Behind the desk, the silver-haired principal, Ye Xilan, furrowed his brows slightly. As the principal who had overseen Duxing High School for thirty years, Ye Xilan held absolute authority within the school.

After a moment of thought, he said, "Then find a way to investigate. We must uncover this person\'s true identity."

A high school genius who could achieve three Transcendent ratings within thirty minutes was always worth paying attention to.

"How should we proceed once we find out?" Dean Ye Xinyu asked.

Ye Xilan\'s face was stern as he replied, "If we can poach him, spare no expense to make him our student. If we can\'t, then give him special attention. If necessary, using some unconventional means is not out of the question. We absolutely cannot allow anyone to threaten our path to a three-time championship."

"Understood," Ye Xinyu responded, standing up to salute before leaving.

The Starry Sky Hotel was a chain enterprise under the Star Council. It had locations in base cities around the world. It was a hotel, but also served as a branch outpost for the Star Council.

The highest-ranking official stationed in Liuhe Base City was an Inspector named Li Zhoumin. Despite being highly respected, he was a thirty-year-old middle-aged man.

Li Zhoumin kept a low profile. He resided in the hotel, rarely making public appearances. He seldom involved himself in government affairs or the matters of the five major martial arts families. He was almost like a transparent person.

He also had ten Inspectors under him, all of whom were outsiders. They also rarely interacted with local forces. Their sole responsibility was to patrol the jurisdiction, preventing severe violations of Earth\'s highest law, the Star Charter, such as mental pollution and human-beast collusion.

However, there were rare exceptions, like today. Inspector Li Zhoumin had been alerted.

"A little guy like this caught the attention of the Star Network Monitoring System?"

He held a glass of red wine as he lazily watched the large screen. "His martial technique is ancient and crude, yet his fighting spirit burns intensely. Quite interesting indeed."

The screen was showing the footage of Li Xiaofei clearing the trial.

"Three Transcendent ratings, and using an ancient martial arts style... It\'s worth paying attention to. Perhaps this is my opportunity."

Li Zhoumin finished his glass of wine and operated his light-core device. He issued a command with the highest level of authority.
