109: A new record is born!

Natural Awakeners.

Their numbers are extremely scarce, almost one in a billion.

Looking at the Dragon Country's vast territory and population, among 13 billion Awakeners, there are fewer than 100 Natural Awakeners.

And every single Natural Awakener is a person of astonishing talent.

One of the most representative figures is the current President of Shengjing University, President Tu Yuanshan.

Thirty years ago, he was only an A-Rank Talent Awakener.

Now, he is an SSS-Rank Talent Awakener.

Talent cannot be promoted; this is a universally acknowledged truth. (Excluding drugs)

But Natural Awakeners are an exception!

This type of person is born with immense potential and will constantly grow in battle, with the possibility of their Talent continuously improving.

Therefore, every Natural Awakener is a national treasure.

“If Xia Qi is truly a Natural Awakener, then it seems our Human Race will soon have another new star.”

On this point, President Tu Yuanshan has the most authority to speak.

General Hu slapped his head, “That’s right, why didn’t I think of it? Eighteen years ago, Xia Yuan was also a Natural Awakener, so it’s very possible his son, Xia Qi, is too!”

Cheng Long chugged the white liquor in his cup, rolling his eyes at General Hu, “You’re really absent-minded, discovering such an important matter only now.”

General Hu scratched his head awkwardly, “Then, Old Tu, what do you say about Xia Qi entering War God Academy?”

“Then let’s make an exception this once and let him in. However, externally, we must say he was allowed in due to his outstanding contribution in driving away Sakura Country professionals, otherwise, the rules will be broken.”

President Tu Yuanshan nodded in agreement.

“Alright, alright, no problem. Old Cheng will arrange this.”

General Hu nodded repeatedly, patting his chest in response.

To be frank, the purpose of this drinking session was for General Hu to get Xia Qi into War God Academy early.

Normally, new students wishing to enter the Academy must pass the regular Academy test and the Academy test.

They are only allowed to enter the Academy after several procedures.

Now, General Hu wanted to help Xia Qi skip these processes, and President Tu Yuanshan was actually a bit hesitant.

But considering that Xia Qi might very well be a Natural Awakener.

For such a precious Genius, it wouldn't be good to let him develop freely like an ordinary student.

So, he tacitly agreed to this backdoor entry.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, General Hu once again raised his glass, winking at Cheng Long, “Come, come, Old Tu, I toast you.”

President Tu Yuanshan smiled and shook his head, and the three raised their glasses and drank together.

.....

The next day.

Early in the morning, Xia Qi woke up.

He slept especially soundly and sweetly last night; the two girls had even tidied up his bedroom in advance.

This warmed Xia Qi’s heart.

He hadn't felt the sense of 'home' for three years, and yesterday he truly felt a bit of it.

Brushing teeth, washing face, going to the toilet.

A quick three-in-one routine.

After Xia Qi finished tidying up, he bought teleportation stones for the two girls and teleported into the Home of Dungeons first.

Outside the Home of Dungeons, it was as lively as ever.

A large number of professionals were shouting and looking for teams, just like setting up stalls in a market.

Inside were ordinary students from universities, and also many students from various academies.

Although they were all students of Shengjing University, there was a clear distinction between them.

The ordinary students in the Academy were basically admitted through the major entrance examination.

The composition of students in various academies was much more complex; some were cultivated internally by the academies.

They were all children of prominent families, possessing excellent Bloodline Talent, and had received a large amount of resource allocation from a young age.

At the same Rank, students from the academies far surpassed ordinary students.

When ordinary people were taking the college entrance examination, they had generally already surpassed Rank 20, or even higher.

So they were more arrogant, and some even looked down on ordinary students.

Just like Li Pengfei before, he even looked down on a National Champion like Xia Qi.

In the history of Shengjing University, those National Champions and provincial Champions, when they first entered the university, were indeed not as good as them.

Starting too late, inferior in Rank, inferior in knowledge, inferior in foundation; it could be said they were inferior in every aspect.

This situation would only change after two or three years, when their Rank increased and their foundation deepened.

Some excellent individuals would also pass various tests to enter various major academies and become members of those academies.

And those who were not good enough could only remain ordinary students.

The existence of academies was to differentiate between Geniuses and ordinary students.

Xia Qi had thought through this matter in a flash and was completely unconcerned.

Anyway, it didn't affect his leveling up and becoming stronger.

Moreover, he had never thought of teaming up with others from the beginning to the end.

Except for special cases like Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu.

He preferred to solo.

Entering the Home of Dungeons, Xia Qi went directly to the Bat Cave dungeon entrance.

The cooldown had just ended, saving him 40 points.

He selected the nightmare difficulty dungeon and entered.

Familiar routes, familiar caves.

“I’ve run it three times, and the map hasn’t changed at all. It seems to be a fixed map.”

“If that’s the case, I can definitely speedrun it.”

Xia Qi calculated in his mind and had a rough idea.

However, this round he wasn't in a hurry to speedrun, but rather to optimize his farming route first.

He wouldn't go to some too distant places, choosing closer caves. Xia Qi first pulled all the bat monsters inside.

This way, he could both gain most of the experience and save a lot of time.

Achieving optimal efficiency.

Calculated this way, the dungeon farming speed could almost double.

He could clear the dungeon in at most fifty-odd minutes.

At the same time, he could still gain about 70% of the experience points.

Thus, the efficiency would greatly increase.

This was a method he thought of temporarily last night; there was no need to clear every single monster, as that would waste time instead.

Fire Breathing unfolded, and explosions occasionally rang out along the way.

Fighting while pushing through the map, his experience points continuously increased.

When he was halfway through, Xia Qi, who was already close to leveling up, glowed with the light of an upgrade.

His internal energy was fully restored.

Xia Qi didn't pay attention and continued to push and fight.

Along the way, flames soared to the sky, sweeping everything before him.

After abandoning many groups of monsters in remote corners, Xia Qi only took forty minutes to reach the end of the dungeon.

After clearing the bat monsters at the entrance, the Bat King, seeing Xia Qi for the fourth time, seemed to have a hint of fear in its eyes.

Skill: Energy Bullet.

Skill: Toxin Infection.

Just at the first encounter, the Bat King immediately unleashed a frenzy of attacks.

However, Xia Qi gave the Bat King no chance, and the energy surged wildly from his flaming greatsword.

Sword Skill: Flame Dance!

Blazing red flames danced, and massive explosions continuously erupted.

The Bat King died a miserable death directly.

At the same time, the bell of the Home of Dungeons rang.

A new clear record was born again!
