74: I'm afraid I'm not a fake genius!

Blazing Dragon University Plaza.

As the giant light gate appeared, a piece of information suddenly surfaced in the minds of all new students.

"Secret Realm Dungeon: Beast Tide Impact."

"Secret Realm Dungeon Grade: Silver-grade."

"Secret Realm Dungeon Minimum Admission Rank: Level 30."

"Secret Realm Dungeon Optional Difficulty: Easy, Normal, Difficult, Hell."

"Secret Realm Dungeon Admission Limit: One person."

"Secret Realm Dungeon Introduction: An endless Beast Tide is approaching, brave Awakener, will you persevere until the end in the Beast Tide, or will you be torn to shreds by the swarming monsters?"

...

"A Silver-grade Secret Realm Dungeon?"

After checking the suddenly appearing information, a fiery glint flashed in Wang Chen's eyes.

He hadn't forgotten the gains from the College Entrance Examination Secret Realm Dungeon, and now that a higher Rank Secret Realm Dungeon had appeared, he was already impatient to know how much he could gain.

Without hesitation, he immediately chose the Hell difficulty with a thought.

The next second, his body disappeared from the plaza.

At this moment, the surrounding new students also made the same choice as him.

In an instant, the plaza became empty.

Immediately after.

The solitary giant light gate, as Sun Miao Teacher, the referee, waved her magic staff, twisted and transformed, directly becoming a giant screen floating above the plaza.

This screen was divided into 120 grids, each corresponding to a new student.

"It's finally starting!"

"Everyone, guess who will be this year's top new student?"

"My blind guess is Zhao Li, that kid's strength among the new students is definitely at the peak."

"..."

When the giant screen appeared in the sky, the older students gathered around the plaza immediately became excited.

The annual new student ranking battle was a traditional school event, and many people were placing bets at this moment, planning to earn some academic credits.

"I choose Wang Chen; he has two Divine Beast-level Beast Pets. Just now, the teachers from the three major academies almost fought over him. He definitely has the strength to reach the top spot."

Someone at this moment placed a heavy bet on Wang Chen.

"That's not necessarily true. His Rank is too low. A twenty-level gap, even a Divine Beast can't close it."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone next to him objected.

"Zhao Li still has the most hope of reaching the top. A Level 60 Saint Warrior, capable of both offense and defense, and possessing healing abilities, he's practically a whole team by himself. He's simply too suitable for the Beast Tide Impact Secret Realm Dungeon."

Hearing his words, many older students around him nodded in agreement.

"That's right, the Saint Warrior Awakener is simply a bug. High attack, high defense, and can heal himself. I'm also betting on Zhao Li."

"The Hell difficulty of the Secret Realm Dungeon Beast Tide Impact will face nine waves of Beast Tide in total. Challengers are not allowed to use any recovery items, so Zhao Li has a huge advantage."

"Ah? Is the Saint Warrior that strong? Then didn't I lose a lot?"

For a moment, the older student who had bet on Wang Chen just now immediately felt some regret.

And at this time, while they were discussing, the teachers on the high platform of the plaza strangely maintained a consistent view.

The teachers from the three major academies who had previously frantically competed for Wang Chen were all sitting upright in their chairs, their gazes fixed on the area belonging to Wang Chen on the screen, not looking at anyone else.

Tap, tap, tap!

When Sun Miao Teacher, the referee presiding over the first part, walked back, what she saw was this strangely harmonious scene.

"It seems you all have a lot of confidence in this little guy?"

Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask.

"Of course!"

"Teacher Sun, you just returned from the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, so you don't know how terrifying this kid Wang Chen is."

"He set an unprecedented record of clearing the College Entrance Examination Secret Realm Dungeon in one minute!"

"He is the future star of our Combat Academy!"

Teacher Zhao from the Combat Academy said with a look of shock upon hearing this, and then he chuckled, as if thinking of some beautiful scene.

One minute?!!

Hearing his words, Sun Miao couldn't help but widen her eyes.

The Dragon Country College Entrance Examination Secret Realm Dungeon had not changed for so many years, so she knew very well how terrifying this achievement was.

One must know that she was also the provincial top scorer back then, but it took her a full ten minutes and twenty seconds to clear the Secret Realm.

Wang Chen's achievement was more than ten times hers!!

Am I a fake Genius?

Sun Miao began to doubt her life.

At this moment, as the Combat Academy teacher's words fell.

"Get lost!"

"Teacher Zhao, do you have no shame? Wang Chen is clearly the rising star of our Magic Academy!"

The teacher from the Magic Academy next to him immediately became displeased, glaring fiercely.

In an instant, the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and it seemed about to escalate into a violent conflict again.

"Alright, alright."

Startled by the commotion caused by both sides, Sun Miao stood between them, feeling a bit helpless and amused. She said:

"You don't need to show your confidence in this little guy so obviously; you should also consider the feelings of the other new students."

"Hmph!"

"What do their feelings have to do with me?"

The beautiful teacher from the Magic Academy rolled her eyes upon hearing this.

"Exactly, is it that hard to admit that others are better than you? This kid Wang Chen is ten times stronger than them!"

The Combat Academy teacher, at this moment, unusually agreed with the Magic Academy for once.

Seeing this, Sun Miao felt a little tired.

These new students, once they mature successfully, will at least be 5th Rank Awakeners in the future.

Why do they sound like trash when you talk about them?

Mutted a thought to herself, Sun Miao's gaze fell on a tall figure on the screen.

"How long do you think it will take Wang Chen to clear the nine waves of Beast Tide?"

She asked with some anticipation.

"Nine minutes, I guess!"

"His Rank is still a weakness, and the Nine-tailed Fox was just contracted, so nine minutes should be his limit."

Teacher Zhao from the Combat Academy pondered for a moment and said, and the Magic Academy teacher next to him also nodded in agreement.

"That's not bad either!"

"Nine minutes, that's already an achievement that many first-year students can only reach in their later semesters!"

Sun Miao said with some emotion.

...

...

"Warm Reminder: Challenger Wang Chen, you have successfully entered the Silver-grade Secret Realm Dungeon 'Beast Tide Impact'!".

"Current selected difficulty: Hell-grade!"

"Current Secret Realm Dungeon Challenger Count: One person!"

"Current Secret Realm Dungeon Monster Waves: Nine waves!"

"Return Scroll has been automatically issued. If you encounter life-threatening danger, please use it cautiously, Challenger!"

"Wish you a successful clearance of the Secret Realm Dungeon!"

"..."

Space and time shifted. When Wang Chen's feet touched solid ground again, the Secret Realm Spirit's prompt sounded in his ears.

"Nine waves?"

Wang Chen's face showed excitement.

The more waves, the better. The more monsters that appear, the higher the rewards when the clearance is settled.

"Perhaps, after clearing this Secret Realm Dungeon, I can raise Ice Purity's Rank to the verge of advancement."
