110: Factional struggle, Li Pengfei is courting death!
The people outside the Home of Dungeons rushed over.
Breaking records always aroused people's curiosity and surprise.
“Someone broke a record again?”
“I wonder which big shot it is this time.”
“Quickly, let's see which dungeon it is.”
Hundreds of people swarmed into the Home of Dungeons and found the shining information stele.
“Holy cow, it’s actually the Holy Land of experience, the Bat Cave dungeon.”
“Amazing, the most time-consuming Rank 25 dungeon, and a new record was set.”
“Wait a minute, could it be that person from yesterday again?”
“Let me see, Xia Qi, it really is him.”
A new record appeared on the stele; the original first place moved down one spot, and the new clear record appeared at the top.
[Xia Qi, Rank 22, Mage, 45 minutes 35 seconds.]
“Amazing, this student named Xia Qi, he soloed it.”
“Isn’t that right? I saw him with my own eyes break the Magic Wolf Mountain Ridge dungeon yesterday, and today he refreshed the Bat Cave.”
“This is too terrifying, how did he manage to solo it?”
“Mages are strong in area-of-effect attacks, and his Innate talent must be very strong, so soloing is possible.”
“What you’re saying isn’t nonsense, but the key is, can you do it? Breaking a record!”
The more the people present talked, the more surprised they became.
Xia Qi’s strength had already exceeded their imagination.
At least in Shengjing for so many years, few students had heard of someone this formidable.
“Heh heh, he just got lucky; he definitely used some trick.”
At this moment, a voice full of jealousy rang out.
Hearing this, hundreds of pairs of eyes simultaneously fell on Li Pengfei.
“Student, why do you say that?”
Li Pengfei’s remarks aroused everyone’s curiosity, and someone immediately raised a question.
Breaking a record was not something that could be done simply.
Furthermore, Xia Qi had set the record by soloing the dungeon.
This was even more difficult.
Why did this person say that Xia Qi achieved it by trickery?
Li Pengfei showed a look of disdain, “I know this person; he’s just an ordinary student who just finished the college entrance examination. Relying on his connection with War God Hu Jun, he must have obtained some powerful treasure.”
“Otherwise, how could he solo a nightmare difficulty dungeon with such a low Rank?”
As Li Pengfei’s words fell, he felt that his words would definitely be recognized by everyone.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how Xia Qi did it.
But he should not have said these words in front of a group of ordinary students.
An ordinary student immediately looked at Li Pengfei angrily, “What’s wrong with being an ordinary student? Why can’t an ordinary student create a record?”
“Exactly, you said Student Xia Qi broke the record by relying on a treasure given by War God Hu Jun, do you have proof?”
“I know him, his name is Li Pengfei, he’s a student from War God Academy, no wonder he looks so arrogant, looking down on us ordinary students.”
“Is War God Academy so great? They just started earlier; it’s not certain who will be stronger in the future.”
The ordinary students present were roused to anger, causing the scene to erupt into chaos.
Ordinary students and academy students were already at odds, and with Li Pengfei fanning the flames, the conflict between them immediately broke out.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves; the ordinary students immediately began to argue and curse.
Don’t think ordinary students are weak.
They also got in after layers of fierce competition among thousands of students.
It can be said that they are all very excellent people.
Moreover, most of the professionals who achieved excellent results in the college entrance examination have strong Innate talents.
Even if they are not as good as these family disciples cultivated within the academy at first, as time goes on, this gap will gradually narrow, and eventually, they may even surpass them.
Therefore, in the eyes of many excellent ordinary students, family disciples are nothing special.
If it came to a real life-and-death fight, it’s hard to say who would win.
But similarly, the academy students were more inclined to believe what Li Pengfei said.
For example, the theories about immense wealth from yesterday were all deduced by academy students.
In their eyes, it was impossible for ordinary students to be this strong.
As noble families, they enjoyed unique resource advantages from birth, yet they couldn't do it.
Why could an ordinary student do it?
The two sides immediately started an irreconcilable argument.
They mocked each other, back and forth, almost coming to blows.
With a flash of light, Xia Qi appeared right in front of the dungeon.
Upon appearing, seeing the scene even noisier than a wet market, he was momentarily bewildered.
What’s going on?
At this moment, someone grabbed Xia Qi, “Student Xia Qi, did you just finish your college entrance examination two days ago?”
Xia Qi nodded instinctively.
“Yes, why?”
“Then what was your score?”
“National Champion.”
Xia Qi stated truthfully.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Especially the academy students, they were completely frozen.
They indeed looked down on ordinary students, but a National Champion was different.
Although a National Champion might not be as good as them when first entering Shengjing, most National Champions, given time, could catch up and even surpass them.
Which National Champion is simple?
The answer is certainly very few.
After all, being able to get first place among millions of test-takers proves that even if this person's background resources are not good, their potential is absolutely enormous.
Such a person, even if suppressed in the early stages, will quickly display their Innate talent and strength in the Late Stage.
Li Pengfei said coldly, “Don’t be bluffed by this kid. So what if he’s a National Champion? If it were us, who couldn’t be a National Champion?”
Someone retorted, “That’s not how it works. If your family was ordinary from childhood, and you only awakened a month before the college entrance examination, you would know that being a National Champion is not that simple.”
These words made sense and were agreed upon by many.
Why could family disciples enter the academy? It was because they could Awaken early.
Unlike ordinary people, who could only Awaken their Innate talent at eighteen, a month before the college entrance examination.
Time, resources, and various aspects were not on equal footing, so they could not be generalized.
Even the academy students had to nod in agreement with this statement.
The fact was indeed so.
Xia Qi also understood what was going on; his gaze shifted, and endless killing intent surged.
It was Li Pengfei again causing trouble.
“You probably really don’t know how to write the word ‘death’!”
Xia Qi’s eyes were filled with chilling killing intent; everyone dared not even look directly into his eyes.
This was the kind of look that only someone who had truly killed could possess.
