77: Chapter 77 Am I Actually a Villain?

On the top floor of the Federal Chamber of Commerce, inside the exclusive reception room reserved for Su Chen's use and accessible only to a select few VIPs.

"Sister Ruoyun."

Following the sound of clicking high heels, a graceful figure pushed open the door and entered.

Su Chen set down the warm Dark Gold-grade fine tea in his hand and greeted her.

Wen Ruoyun was still wearing her signature purple qipao. She walked over with a swaying, elegant gait and leaned lazily against the sofa chair.

The qipao was expertly tailored, outlining her stunning figure to perfection. Her long, fair legs were crossed, glowing with a porcelain-like luster under the lights.

He couldn't help but marvel that the color purple truly held a unique charm when worn by her; Su Chen's gaze inevitably lingered on that splash of bright color for a moment.

"Brother Su Chen, how do you have time to visit today? How did your performance in the big exam go?" The corners of Wen Ruoyun's mouth curled up into a seductive arc. Her slightly magnetic voice was enough to make one's bones go soft. "Did your points break the fifty-thousand mark?"

A hint of anticipation was hidden in her tone.

Looking at the College Entrance Exams of previous years, once a score crossed the five-hundred-thousand-point threshold, one gained an entry ticket to compete for the title of National Top Scorer.

Although Su Chen belonged to the Assassin class—which didn't excel in drop rates or mob-grinding efficiency—Wen Ruoyun subconsciously felt that he could create a miracle.

"It was alright," Su Chen said with feigned humility as he took a sip of tea, his tone flat. "I just casually got over one million eight hundred thousand points."

"How... How many?"

Wen Ruoyun's smile instantly froze, and she even leaned forward in a slight loss of composure.

She couldn't help being shocked. Back when she won the title of Jiang Province Top Scorer, she only had about four hundred and fifty thousand points. The highest national record in history seemed to be only eight hundred and eighty thousand points. Su Chen's score was more than double the historical record?

"Alright, stop making fun of your sister." She gave Su Chen a charmingly resentful glare, her eyes shimmering with elegance, clearly assuming he was joking.

"If Sister Ruoyun doesn't believe me, just browse through the Yunlan professional forums and you'll see."

At this moment, the College Entrance Exam had just concluded. The name 'Su Chen' and that shocking score had already spread across the entire internet, not to mention his staggering identity as an 'Amethyst Giant Dragon Knight'.

Half-doubting, Wen Ruoyun took out her phone, her fingertips sliding quickly across the screen.

A few seconds later, her movements stopped completely, and her beautiful eyes gradually filled with disbelief.

"My god... it's actually true! That Amethyst Giant Dragon flying over Yunlan that day was really your mount?" Her red lips parted slightly as she stared at the young man before her in a daze. Besides surprise, there was a layer of peculiar brilliance in her eyes.

"Let's get down to business. Besides the usual clearing out of unused equipment and materials, I also need to purchase intelligence."

Su Chen withdrew his smile, set down his teacup, and said seriously, "Sister Ruoyun, help me keep an eye out for all BOSSes of the 6th Transition and below that possess S-grade or higher talents."

Additionally, as long as it's a wild or secret realm BOSS below the 6th Transition, send me the coordinates as soon as they are updated."

His request served two purposes: those with high talents were for 'Stealing,' while the wild ones were for 'Devouring Evolution'.

As for dungeon BOSSes, because they couldn't be taken out due to rule restrictions and would automatically refresh after death, they held no value for devouring.

"Another one of these strange requests..." Wen Ruoyun murmured under her breath, yet she briskly began operating the terminal.

Before long, a thick stack of files was placed on the table.

She used her slender fingers to precisely pick out dozens of core documents and pushed them toward Su Chen. "BOSSes with S-grade talents are extremely rare. There are only ten known ones below the 6th Transition, and their locations are very scattered."

"However, there is plenty of information on wild BOSSes. There are dozens of activity tracks around Yunlan, and all have been confirmed to be alive."

Su Chen rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache looking at the data.

Those high-talent BOSSes were either close to the level cap or scattered across the far corners of the world. Even with the Amethyst Thunder-Flame Dragon for transport, this cross-regional travel would consume a lot of time.

As for the wild monsters around Yunlan City, they could be cleared out as snacks first.

It seemed the plan for large-scale plundering of high-tier talents would have to wait until after enrolling in Tianchen Academy.

In the era where everyone underwent class transitions, the status of academies was extremely high. They not only held the power to allocate national-level resources but also received feedback from countless experts who gave back to their alma maters.

Under the logic that the strong get stronger, the academies almost monopolized top-tier secret realm coordinates and class transition resources.

For top-tier geniuses, this preferential treatment was taken for granted—after all, resources were limited, and only by letting those with the most potential master them first could the maximum strategic value be realized.

Before leaving, under Wen Ruoyun's astonished gaze, Su Chen piled up a large amount of epic-grade loot in the backyard, with even a few priceless legendary-grade materials mixed in.

"I said the trip to the snow mountain would yield rewards."

"I'll trouble Sister Ruoyun to continue managing these things for me." Su Chen waved his hand, leaving behind a dashing figure as he walked away.

Wen Ruoyun stood in place, her eyes shimmering, not looking away for a long time.

The road back to the villa wasn't very far, so Su Chen simply put away the giant dragon and walked through the streets of Yunlan, browsing the professional forums as he went.

At this time, the topic of the College Entrance Exam had already exploded in popularity, with headlines more eye-catching than the last:

《F-grade Talent's Shocking Counterattack! 900,000 Points Dominates the Crowd, Breaking the Long-Standing Records of Huaxia!》

《A Golden Age Arrives? God-tier Geniuses with 600,000 Points Emerge in Multiple Provinces This Year!》

Jiang Province Sees a Massive Gap with 1.8 Million Points for First Place! A legendary-grade Dragon Knight Appears!》

《Shocking! To Make the Giant Dragon Submit, This Youth Actually Did This to It...》

Su Chen swiped past several battle reports about himself, but his gaze stopped on the post about the "F-grade Talent Counterattack".

"Another F-grade talent, another cross-tier face-slapping... this plot... why does it feel like a strange sense of déjà vu?" Su Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, lost in thought.

Is it that there are too many 'Children of Destiny' in this world, or... am I actually playing some kind of villain role?
