1: System awakening, first plunder

September 1st, 2605.

Azure Planet, Dragon Country, Wu City Base City.

Public High School Number One, Senior Class Six!

A banner above the blackboard displayed eight eye-catching characters:

Martial Arts College Entrance Exam Pep Rally!

"Students, in three days, it will be the Martial Arts College Entrance Exam's admissions test!"

"The opportunity to change your destinies is about to arrive..."

Lin Wu looked at the Class Teacher, who was speaking endlessly on the podium, and couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Wu's true identity was that of a Transmigrator.

He had been Transmigrated to this world for over ten years.

This world was largely similar to his previous one, with no difference in language or writing.

The difference, however, was that this was a world of Vicious Beast invasions and universal martial arts Cultivation.

Human Cultivators could traverse the Void Realm with their martial prowess; those with great strength could shatter planets with a single punch; those with formidable Physical Bodies could walk on neutron stars; powerful Mental Energy Masters could even alter the direction of comets.

Of course, the Vicious Beasts in this world were even more terrifying.

Even in this era of universal high-level martial arts, humans, for self-preservation, had to erect high walls to isolate themselves from the endless Vicious Beasts in the wild.

Yet, in this world where martial arts reigned supreme!

Lin Wu's martial arts talent was extraordinarily poor.

No matter how he Cultivated, his Cultivation could not advance an inch, falling far short of the Martial Arts College Entrance Exam's passing mark.

To be reborn into a new life, only to be a Trash.

How could one not be troubled?

The Class Teacher's endless speech soon concluded, followed by the announcement of a three-day holiday for everyone to go home and rest well.

The moment the teacher left the classroom, the students immediately became lively.

Among their discussions, a few sentences were about Lin Wu.

"Lin Wu has Cultivated the hardest and studied the most diligently these past three years, but he just can't pass the minimum requirement. Perhaps this is fate," a female classmate muttered softly.

Beside her was the school beauty, Liu Qingran, and when Lin Wu was discussed, a hint of sadness actually flickered across her pretty face.

"Honestly, I used to quite like him."

"Big sister, what's the use of being handsome? This is an era where strength reigns supreme!"

"Yes, he and I are not from the same world."

...Just as Lin Wu was about to get up, a clear voice sounded in his mind!

"Ding, congratulations to the host for meeting all prerequisite conditions! The trait Plunder System has officially Awakened!"

"Reading martial arts data..."

"Name: Lin Wu"

"Realm: Unranked"

"Strength: 70kg (Average person is 50kg)"

"Qi and Blood: 60 Cal (Normal person 50 Cal, represents Physique, martial arts potential.)"

"Speed: 11m/s (Normal person 3m/s)"

"Spirit: 12 Hz (Normal person 10 Hz, represents Mental Energy)"

"Cultivation Technique: Dragon Country Basic Body Tempering Technique (Proficient)"

"Entries: Mediocre Talent (White), Considerable Charisma (Green)"

"System?"

Lin Wu was a little surprised, but quickly reacted.

The preceding data was consistent with the school's test results, but the last few columns of the System were quite special.

"trait Plunder System: The host can obtain entries by killing enemies, or if a nearby creature dies abnormally, all entries possessed by that creature can be obtained."

"trait Plunder System..."

Lin Wu quickly understood the System's function, so he continued to scroll down to view the trait descriptions.

"The entries you currently possess are: Mediocre Talent (White), Considerable Charisma (Green)."

"Mediocre Talent (White): In this world where martial arts reigns supreme, you have no Cultivation talent whatsoever. Fading into obscurity is your destiny."

"Considerable Charisma (Green): Your appearance is handsome, which will slightly increase others' favorability towards you."

"Interesting."

Lin Wu opened his eyes and looked at his classmates; sure enough, entries and their descriptions appeared on them.

"Liu Youzhi: Arrogant and Complacent (White), Well-Developed Limbs (Green), Slightly Skilled in Fists and Kicks (Green)."

"Arrogant and Complacent (White): You are easily satisfied with your current state, and thus, on the path of martial arts, you will easily stagnate, or even invite disaster."

"Well-Developed Limbs (Green): Your body is very strong, but you don't seem to be good at thinking."

"Slightly Skilled in Fists and Kicks (Green): You have considerable talent in Cultivating fist and kick techniques, and your Cultivation speed is two-tenths faster than ordinary people."

Lin Wu understood instantly.

These entries could be interpreted as talents or characteristics.

As long as he killed a person or a Vicious Beast, or if a creature nearby dropped an trait, he could perform a Fusion.

And these entries were categorized by color!

They were: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange, Gold, Red!

Lin Wu quickly began to ponder.

Since the System had Awakened, he naturally had to utilize it!

However, at present, he couldn't commit murder or go into the wild to kill Vicious Beasts.

Lin Wu continued to think... Soon, he remembered the old residential area where he lived.

It was an old neighborhood located on the outskirts of Demon Repelling City.

Because land prices were cheap, many bosses came to open small workshops and factories near the neighborhood.

"It seems there's a low-Rank Vicious Beast slaughterhouse in my neighborhood."

In this era, most Vicious Beast meat was non-toxic and had the effect of strengthening the Physical Body.

So low-Rank Vicious Beasts replaced ordinary livestock as a source of meat.

Typical Vicious Beasts would be captured in the wild, then have their spinal nerves severed, and then distributed to various slaughterhouses.

Thinking of this.

Lin Wu immediately had a plan!

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately sprang into action!

...Two hours later.

Demon Repelling City, beyond the Fourth Ring Road.

Peaceful Neighborhood.

Lin Wu got out of the taxi and went directly to the slaughterhouse near the neighborhood.

Lin Wu found the slaughterhouse.

Because it was a small workshop, the management was not strict.

Even when Lin Wu sat on a stone bench at the entrance, no one came to drive him away.

This slaughterhouse was open-plan.

The smell of blood and game assailed him!

At this moment, several burly men, bare-chested, dragged a low-Rank bovine Vicious Beast from an old minivan.

This Vicious Beast was still alive, but due to its severed spinal nerves, it was paralyzed.

Lin Wu's vision showed a panel.

"Name: Mutated Brute Ox"

"Realm: First-Rank Vicious Beast"

"Bloodline: None"

"Entries: Brute Ox Strength (Green), Thick Skin and Rough Flesh (Green), Qi and Blood Like an Ox (Green), Easily Ignited and Enraged (White)"

"Brute Ox Strength (Green): A normal adult water buffalo has a strength of 300-900kg, but a Mutated Brute Ox is even more terrifying, with a Peak burst reaching up to 2000kg!"

"Thick Skin and Rough Flesh (Green): Your skin will become as tough as oxhide, greatly dispersing blunt force impacts."

"Qi and Blood Like an Ox (Green): Your Qi and Blood will be as vast as an ox's."

"Easily Ignited and Enraged (White): You will possess a fiery temper like an ox, which might produce unexpected effects in combat but will lead to a loss of reason."

"Status: Dying"

Lin Wu looked at the System's message.

In this era, Vicious Beasts were divided into ten Ranks, starting from the Mortal Rank.

And above these ten Mortal Ranks were King Rank, Venerable Rank, Saint-Grade, and Divine-Grade, and so on!

Meanwhile, those few burly men, cigarettes dangling from their mouths and slaughtering tools in their hands, seemed ready to go.
