132: Go to Small World

Rank 38.

The scarlet numbers displayed above Li Changkong’s head made the expressions of the two people in front of him turn strange.

Fire Rongrong even rubbed her eyes to confirm that she hadn’t seen it wrong.

“Junior, you’re Rank 38?”

Fire Rongrong quickly recovered from her shock and asked hurriedly.

“I reached Rank 38 while grinding. My profession is a bit special, so it has a bonus to Rank, naturally making my leveling speed faster.”

Li Changkong nodded, casually finding an excuse.

Listening to Li Changkong’s words, Fire Rongrong only felt that Li Changkong was being boastful.

She was able to reach Rank 35 entirely because she spent every day in dungeons.

Moreover, with fixed monsters and her unique water-attribute profession, that was why her leveling speed was so fast.

Although Li Changkong had a unique profession, he had only just entered university.

Counting from the time of his Awakening, it had only been a full four months.

Reaching Rank 38 in four months was absolutely unheard of and unseen.

“You brat, you were holding back before.”

Fire Dean looked at Li Changkong, marveling.

“Look at what you’re saying, Dean. How was I holding back? You never asked me what my Rank was before.”

Li Changkong replied with a calm smile.

“You brat, I finally understand why you were first in this freshman joint exam. With this Rank, it would be strange if you weren’t.”

Fire Dean nodded, stroking his beard.

“Dean, with my strength, I should have reached the minimum standard, right? So, you…?”

Li Changkong asked with a chuckle, looking at Fire Dean.

“Alright, since your strength has reached Rank 38, there’s definitely no problem.”

“However, I still have one condition: if you want to go, then you must go with Rongrong.”

Fire Dean looked at Li Changkong and then spoke.

“No problem.”

Li Changkong nodded.

His purpose for going this time was to obtain the meteorite iron; it didn’t matter who he went with.

Upon seeing Li Changkong agree, Fire Dean nodded, satisfied with Li Changkong’s answer.

“By the way, is there something you two need to do when you go to the Small World this time?”

Li Changkong had some doubts in his heart and looked at Fire Rongrong.

The biggest difference between a Small World and a dungeon should be that a Small World is often an entire world.

Moreover, the monsters within it would not be low-Rank, and many of them were even organized.

Usually, the entrance to a Small World would be heavily guarded to prevent those monsters from entering.

Sometimes, if a riot occurred in a Small World, then the soldiers and the families guarding it would be responsible for dealing with it.

“It’s to complete a mission. Besides me, there are a few senior students, mostly around Rank 40.”

Hearing this question, Fire Rongrong replied.

“Alright, no problem.”

Hearing this, Li Changkong readily agreed.

Anyway, he was only there for the meteorite iron; other things didn’t matter.

Even if there were many people, he still had a way.

Li Changkong didn’t even know what meteorite iron was, but he should find out once he entered the Small World.

They would depart tomorrow, and Li Changkong would go with them then.

...

“What? Letting a freshman join us is a bit too childish, isn’t it?”

Upon hearing this news, the teammate was very surprised.

“Don’t worry, his strength is quite good. He was the first in the freshman league before, and this was also agreed upon by my grandfather.”

Fire Rongrong looked at her teammate and explained.

“Anyway, once we enter the Small World, he’s definitely going to be a burden. I don’t want that.”

The teammate continued to object.

As a very famous blade master in the school, Zheng He could be considered the top blade master of the entire third year, and his overall strength ranked among the top ten.

“I know that guy. His strength seems really good, but you should still consider it carefully.”

“No matter how much of a Genius he is, he’s still just a freshman. His Rank probably isn’t even 30.”

A Shield Warrior walked out and continued to speak.

Fire Rongrong opened her mouth, ready to explain.

But in the end, she swallowed her words and didn’t continue.

She didn’t want to reveal Li Changkong’s Rank, as that could be considered his privacy.

In Fire Rongrong’s eyes, Li Changkong definitely didn’t want to be too conspicuous, which was why he was unwilling to reveal his privacy.

So she was also unwilling to reveal relevant information, and even if she did, they probably wouldn’t believe her.

If Li Changkong himself was willing to say it, then he naturally would.

While they were discussing, Li Changkong had already arrived at the scene.

Fire Rongrong’s entire team consisted of five people, making it six with Li Changkong.

The main roles of warrior, Shield Warrior, mage, and healer were all present.

They could be considered a complete team, and even with Li Changkong, there would be no trouble.

“You are Li Changkong?”

Before Li Changkong could speak, Zheng He had already opened his mouth first.

“Is there something?”

Hearing the question, Li Changkong retorted without hesitation.

“This time you should be with us, your seniors. Make sure to stick close to us and absolutely do not drag us down.”

Zheng He sized up Li Changkong and continued.

“Zheng He, I told you his strength is not weak. If you don’t believe me, you can withdraw now.”

Hearing these words, Fire Rongrong was the first to get angry, her tone cold.

“Rongrong, our mission this time is not simple. I’m just worried that his presence will jeopardize our mission.”

Seeing Fire Rongrong get angry, Zheng He quickly explained.

“These things are not for you to consider. If you really want to meddle, you might as well put more effort into the subsequent battles.”

Fire Rongrong continued.

Although Fire Rongrong was only a sophomore, her strength among them was definitely one of the best.

So after she finished speaking, it also served to establish authority for Li Changkong.

Zheng He, who was originally still arguing, also obediently shut his mouth at this moment, not daring to anger her further.

Soon, they had arrived at the teleportation plaza and selected one of the teleportation arrays.

As the teleportation array rotated, they quickly entered the Small World.

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the towering city in front of him, as if it would pierce the clouds.

On the city wall, there were many soldiers guarding, their expressions solemn.
