22: Reborn, Lin Qingyan

Inside a villa.

The spacious training room was currently covered in frost, resembling a freezing ice cave.

Sitting on the floor in the middle of the training room was an extraordinarily beautiful young girl wearing a white dress. Her thick black hair cascaded down to the ground like a waterfall, her eyes were closed, and white cold Qi was exhaled and inhaled between her mouth and nose.

As she abruptly opened her eyes, a flash of white light swept past, and the entire training room was instantly frozen solid!

"It has finally awakened, my second talent!"

A trace of joy flashed through the young girl's eyes.

Her name was Lin Qingyan, the well-known Lin, School Beauty of the martial arts high school, and also the illegitimate daughter of Lin Baihe, the CEO of White River Group. She was the paternal half-sister of the Prodigy Lin Junhao, but she had only awakened an A-rank talent. She was heavily ostracized by Lin Junhao's mother, and after her father's death, she was driven out of the Lin family.

Students at the martial arts high school often compared her with Luo Xi, who was also a school beauty. In terms of appearance alone, Lin Qingyan was even stronger, but her awakened talent, class transfer, and background couldn't compare to Luo Xi's.

These were the things people knew.

And what people didn't know was...

She was someone who had undergone Rebirth.

Lin Qingyan stood up, standing barefoot on the cold ice. Her thick black hair fluttered behind her back, and cold Qi lingered around her body. Her exquisitely beautiful face revealed a trace of coercion and domineering aura that did not match her age.

"In my past life, it was only after the College Entrance Examination that I accidentally bought an awakening stone from an ignorant store manager in that grocery market, Awakening my SS-rank second talent, Absolute Zero, and thus began my rise."

"And in this life, I obtained the awakening stone before the College Entrance Examination, awakened the SS-rank second talent, broke through ten points in blood Qi, and even transferred to the legendary class—Divine Speaker."

Lin Qingyan sneered: "That woman Luo Xi still wants to show off in front of me, little does she know that she is the clown. Whether it's talent or class, I don't know how many times I exceed her."

"You foolish idiot who doesn't know how to keep a low profile, just wait for the Abyss Believers to come find you."

"In this life, I will definitely take first place in the College Entrance Examination!"

Lin Qingyan thought to herself.

She must accelerate the progress of her rise and step into the King Realm as soon as possible.

It had to be fast.

Otherwise, it would be too late...

Recalling that terrifying existence that walked out of the abyss in her past life and brought destruction, a layer of grey shadow covered Lin Qingyan's ice-blue pupils, and her fists clenched tightly.

"Divine beings..."

In her previous life, one year after Awakening her second talent, she became a Tier 4 Martial Artist, and once again awakened her SSS-rank third talent of the spacetime sequence. It took her less than three years in total to step into the King Realm, and she was hailed as invincible within the same Realm.

People gave her the title, Empress Qingyan.

And right at that time, three hundred years after the gods' abandonment, the abyss located inside an island in Southeast Asia opened up. A terrifying existence whose life level reached the Divine-Grade walked out from it. Even if all the top powerhouses of Blue Star were dispatched, they were no match, and ultimately Blue Star was destroyed...

During the final destruction, Lin Qingyan's own spacetime-type third talent activated an ancient forbidden item on her body, causing her to undergo Rebirth back to before the College Entrance Examination.

"There are still three years until humanity's doomsday."

Lin Qingyan murmured.

There were only three years left.

"Fortunately, there is still a chance."

"As long as I can step into the mythological level within these three years, I will have a chance to change everything."

Confidence carried in the depths of Lin Qingyan's eyes; having once been invincible in the same Realm, she was proud enough.

"Having awakened my second talent, even if I go to the abyss alone now, there won't be any major problems."

"However, before that, I still have to go register as a Martial Artist..."

Thinking this, Lin Qingyan went to her bedroom, changed into a set of white casual clothes, put on a baseball cap, and went out heading towards the Martial Artist Association.

Arriving at the Martial Artist Association.

There were still a few people ahead in line, so she sat down on a seat and waited, closing her eyes to rest her mind and exercising her spiritual energy with a top-tier contemplation method.

...

Jiang Yuan arrived at the Martial Artist Association and met the friend Xu Yihan had mentioned.

That was a beautiful woman with a head of blonde curly hair, a voluptuous figure, and wearing a work uniform.

Seeing Jiang Yuan.

Her eyes lit up as she walked over in high heels with clacking steps. Her proud chest bounced with her movements, and beneath her work skirt, a pair of black-silk-clad beautiful legs were slender and tight. The gazes of quite a few men who had come to register as Martial Artists couldn't help but drift over.

"You must be Junior Brother Jiang that Yihan mentioned; she has already told me all about it."

"My name is Aisha." The blonde beauty smiled and extended her hand, and Jiang Yuan reached out to shake it.

"Hello, thank you for the trouble today."

Watching Jiang Yuan hold her soft hand, the surrounding men couldn't help casting gazes of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

"It's nothing, Yihan and I are good girlfriends who have known each other for many years. Her Junior Brother is my Junior Brother. I just didn't expect you to be able to come and register as a Martial Artist at such a young age, and look so handsome too."

"Do you have a girlfriend? Would you like to consider this elder sister?" Aisha blinked playfully at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan: "..."

"Haha, just joking."

After Aisha led Jiang Yuan to complete the registration procedures, she said to him: "Next, as long as you pass the test, you can become a Martial Artist."

"There are still a few people ahead who need to take the test, so sit here and wait for a moment."

Aisha guided Jiang Yuan to sit down at the spot next to Lin Qingyan, and then left for some business.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Lin Qingyan beside him. Although the young girl was wearing a baseball cap, it couldn't hide her stunning beauty.

He didn't expect that there would be a peer just like him coming to register as a Martial Artist today.

It seemed she noticed his gaze.

Lin Qingyan opened her eyes and glanced at him with a cold gaze, then quickly withdrew her gaze and closed her eyes.

He wasn't one of those people in her memory who already possessed the strength of a Martial Artist before the College Entrance Examination.

It seemed to be another fellow who was blindly confident in his own strength.

Two young boys and girls who looked like students sitting together, especially right here at the Martial Artist registration site, inevitably attracted surprised gazes from some people.

"Those two should be students, right?"

"This is the registration area for Martial Artists, could they possibly be here to register as Martial Artists?"

A short-haired young man wearing a tank top with bulging muscles sneered and said:

"Register my ass. Look at how scrawny they look; at one glance, their blood Qi hasn't even broken ten. They must have run over to take a few photos and shoot some videos to go back and act tough with their friends. There are plenty of such brats. Anyway, registration only costs a thousand bucks, and failing is no big deal."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing his words, the crowd's gazes toward Jiang Yuan and the other became disdainful.
