92: Chapter 92 Why is she so strong?

A group of students in the distance, secretly watching this scene, couldn't help but be deeply shocked.

"I didn't expect Sister Hu's Believer to have reached Tier 3. Looking at this momentum, it won't be long before she can ascend to a Demigod, right? Good heavens, how long has it been?"

"Hey, hey, I say. Your focus is a bit strange, isn't it? Shouldn't the most shocking thing be that Sister Hu's Tier 3 Believer was crushed by the opponent's hundred people? The opponent is actually still Tier 2? And their numbers are ten times less than Sister Hu's!?"

"I think you guys are focusing on the wrong points. Don't forget that this Su Xue is at the very bottom, having not awakened the slightest bit of talent. But look at her situation now? Not to mention the ridiculously strong power of her Believers, just look at that uniform Tier 2 status and the equipment on them? If it were someone unfamiliar, I would believe you if you said she was the direct descendant of some noble Family in our Anping County!"

Compared to those students, Meng Ning and the other top students who graduated from Star Academy had much sharper eyes.

"Lord Lin is truly generous; to think he's already started cultivating a Prodigy at this time. Look at this combat power; this isn't just an ordinary Prodigy."

"A Prodigy, that's not something just anyone can afford to raise. Even in the Academy, only those direct descendants of major Families have this kind of treatment. And yet, Lord Lin is using it to cultivate a subordinate? Isn't this a bit too extravagant? If the subsequent Realm resources can't keep up, wouldn't all the massive resources poured in now be wasted?"

"I heard this girl doesn't even have any talent. Even if Lord Lin really wants to cultivate someone, he could have found someone with better talent. That way, at least fewer resources would be spent, right?"

When there were less than three hundred people left on her side, Hu Rong chose to concede with a bitter expression. She looked at Su Xue in front of her, her eyes filled with an incomprehensible look.

"Why? This makes absolutely no sense. Clearly, your Believers are far inferior to mine in both strength and quantity. Yet why did it end up like this..."

Hearing this, a reflective smile appeared on Su Xue's face.

"There are inherent gaps between Believers; what you see is only the surface. You cannot see what lies within..."

Eating Medicinal Pills worth 6 billion faith points every day and living atop a Spiritual Vein, while using the best training grounds—Su Xue was not at all surprised by this performance. Or rather, it would be truly shameful if she didn't achieve this result!

"Defeated? Actually defeated? Is this fake? How is that Su Xue so strong?"

"A regular Divine Being with nothing, just by becoming a Slave God, she was able to have such a transformative effect..."

"What should I do? I suddenly feel like even the direct descendants in my Family who are being heavily cultivated don't seem as good as this Su Xue? Am I crazy?"

"Whether you're crazy or not, I don't know. I only know that right now, there is a crazy thought in my mind: to become Lord Lin's Slave God..."

"Don't be foolish! Su Xue must have this strength because they've had such huge gains these past few days. Once they use up these gains, they will definitely be knocked back to their original form later. By then, you won't even have the chance to regret it."

"What 'now' or 'later'? As long as their daily gains remain this high, these harvested resources are enough to spawn a large number of deities. Don't tell me you're still hoping you can ascend to Tier 2 or Tier 3 on your own? I can't take it anymore; if I don't get resource replenishment, it won't be long before my Believers' strength regresses. If becoming a Slave God can help me ascend to become a deity quickly, then I accept this Slave God status. Without those resources from the direct line, relying solely on myself, it's not certain if I can ever become a deity."

While this person was saying this, his body had already acted. He walked quickly to Lin Xiao, dropped to his knees with a thud, and bowed respectfully to Lin Xiao.

"Fang Yuan of the third generation of the Fang Family is willing to become Lord Lin's Slave God. I implore you, Lord, to bestow the Slave Mark!"

This action by Fang Yuan was like a signal. Soon, more than a dozen people walked out from the student group, all kneeling and speaking just like him.

For these subordinates who came to his doorstep, Lin Xiao waved his hand and accepted them all. After understanding the ascension of a Intermediate God, he wished he could have more subordinates. After all, he certainly wouldn't be the only Intermediate God in the future; his subordinates would definitely need to ascend as well. In that case, the more Subordinate Deities, the better. Ones he cultivated himself would be more reliable to use, right?

After planting the Slave Marks, Lin Xiao began his usual practice of generously distributing resources. He threw stacks upon stacks of massive amounts of various A-grade resources and a small amount of Spirit Rank resources to these students who had defected to him.

When they saw the resources Lin Xiao gave them, only one thought crossed everyone's mind: it's a good thing we didn't defect too late.

Fang Yuan and the others gathered around Hu Rong and smiled bitterly.

"Sister Hu, you really kept it well hidden. If you had told us about such generous treatment earlier, we wouldn't have had to struggle for so long..."

Hearing this, Hu Rong rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Would you have listened if I had told you back then?"

"Sister Hu's strength must have only recently improved, right? Lord Lin is truly worthy of being someone from a major Family; this generosity and boldness are simply incredibly cool! If I were a woman, I would definitely marry him."

"Pfft, with your looks, even if you really became a woman, you wouldn't look much better. You still expect to marry Lord Lin? If you aren't an offspring of an equally major Family, you wouldn't even get an admission ticket!"

"Do you think we should notify the guys over there? If they knew about this treatment, they would definitely be willing to defect to Lord Lin as well."

"Notify them? You are really kind-hearted. Have you forgotten how they talked about us and looked at us when we came over just now? They are probably badmouthing us in their hearts right now. If you want to be the good guy, you do it. Anyway, I won't. Aren't they arrogant? I want to see how long they can stay arrogant without resource replenishment. If they can keep up this attitude until they die, then I will really admire them."

The students in the distance who had been observing this side felt an indescribable feeling in their hearts after seeing Fang Yuan and the others actually become Lin Xiao's Slave Gods.

Not long ago, in their eyes, this Lin Xiao was nothing more than a joke who used his Bloodline to swindle resources. At that time, they looked at Lin Xiao as if they were watching a clown trying hard to perform.

But now, first Sister Hu, and not long after, Fang Yuan and others also became his Slave Gods. This immediately made them feel as if their positions had been reversed. Originally, they were the ones high above, but now they needed to look up to the other party. This feeling was somewhat terrible for them.

It was also because of this terrible feeling that they subconsciously resisted contact with Lin Xiao. They resisted becoming his subordinates even more.

"They are really bringing glory to their Families, a third-generation direct descendant actually running off to be a Slave God for someone else. Aren't they afraid that their elders will find out and break their legs?"

"I am now somewhat suspicious whether all of this might be that guy's scheme? He claims to be saving us, but he doesn't send us back, nor does he give us resources. Once we can't hold out anymore, we have no choice but to become his Slave Gods. In this way, he can even tell the outside world that it was of our own volition, right?"

"Hiss! Now that you mention it, that seems to be the case!"

"Hmph, just some petty tricks. When our Families discover everything here, let's see how he explains all this to our elders!"
