… …

“Good heavens, this Jun Bujain is truly fierce, almost half an hour faster!”

“Yes, he’s too fast, but why do I feel like he’s from our Jiangcheng?”

“You’re really dreaming. Our Jiangcheng already has a genius like Lin Xuan, how could another Jun Bujain appear?”

“Jun Bujain is indeed not from Jiangcheng. Recently, the neighboring Jiangnan City is holding the High School League finals, and many novice professionals are passing through Jiangcheng.”

“Do you still remember the Goblin Castle dungeon record? At that time, a person wearing silver-white light armor, suspected to be a Sword Emperor professional, appeared in Jiangcheng.”

“And just now, I saw her at the High School League live broadcast, which is the Jiangnan City dungeon hall.”

“Such a coincidental location and time, she is very likely to be Jun Bujain!”

“Brother, are you serious? Jun Bujain is clearly a male nickname, isn’t it?”

“What male, can names have gender? Then tell me if Qingqing Zijing is male or female.”

“Stop arguing, the High School League finals have started!”

Inside the Jiangcheng Dungeon Hall, discussions about the Shili Slope record continued.

But as the central crystal screen switched.

Everyone instantly quieted down, focusing on the central crystal’s screen projection.

“Welcome to the 97th National High School Professional League!”

“Today’s match will be between the ‘Dudengtai’ team from Jingbei University and the Weicao team from Modu University!”

“Next, please welcome…”

The excitement of the High School League finals quickly overshadowed the Shili Slope dungeon.

After all, there are at least a thousand dungeons in Xia Country.

In the speedrun rankings of these dungeons, there is even a five-person team that holds over a hundred first places.

Jun Bujain, now including Goblin Castle, only has six speedrun first places.

In everyone’s eyes, he is at most a rising star.

At the same time.

Lin Xuan and his team slowly advanced through the dungeon.

“Captain, so you’re Jun Bujain! I originally thought Jun Bujain was a girl.”

The Priest, Su Xiuxiu, looked at the settlement information and said with some surprise.

“This…” Lin Xuan was a bit helpless, “Does the name not sound like a girl’s?”

Seeing Lin Xuan’s reaction, Su Xiuxiu shrugged her nose and laughed awkwardly.

“Haha, no, it doesn’t. I heard it from someone else.”

“It’s because of that Sword Emperor professional.” The Sword Cultivator, Chen Yao, explained from the side.

“When Jun Bujain took the Goblin Castle dungeon record, Sword Emperor Li Hanyue happened to be in Jiangcheng.”

“Sword Emperor Li Hanyue? Is there really a Sword Emperor professional?” Lin Xuan asked curiously.

“Yes, and Sword Emperor Li Hanyue is also from the Li family in Jingbei.”

“The Li family is a major sword dao family, and Li Hanyue is an even greater genius girl in their family. She was admitted to Jingbei University the very night she transferred to Sword Emperor.”

“Her visit to Jiangcheng should be a stopover on her way to the High School League finals in the neighboring Jiangnan City.”

“Sword Dao family, Sword Emperor, High School League.”

Everything Chen Yao explained was very new to Lin Xuan.

His thoughts were still stuck on the idea that Blue Star was a copy of Earth.

In reality, even without the Great Cataclysm, Blue Star seemed to have developed something similar to martial arts.

“My strength is still too weak. My talent only makes it difficult for me to die.”

“To live better, I still need overwhelming power.”

“After finishing the dungeon today, I must learn more about Blue Star before the Great Cataclysm.”

Lin Xuan secretly made a decision and refocused his attention on the dungeon.

As they advanced through the dungeon and chatted, they quickly cleared it and were teleported back to the Dungeon Hall.

At this time, the High School League had just finished its final performance and was officially entering the first game.

However, few people noticed them.

“It’s actually possible to broadcast live across venues through the central crystal?”

Lin Xuan glanced at the hall, a little surprised.

Due to the unstable electromagnetic waves in the air, communication between cities through the internet was impossible.

Lin Xuan didn’t expect that communication could be achieved in this way.

According to his conversation with the team members just now, the maximum level limit for players in the High School League was ninety-nine.

At this moment, the strength shown by these people was much stronger than the ordinary professionals he had seen in online videos.

Noticing Lin Xuan’s gaze, the Priest Su Xiuxiu, who had become familiar with Lin Xuan, said:

“Captain, stop looking. Those people are all for the league rewards, desperately staying at level ninety-nine to farm stats. Ordinary people can’t get into the professional league.”

Level capping is the abbreviation for the practice of reaching level ninety-nine and not doing the advancement quest.

Tier 2 professionals are many times stronger than Tier 1.

But many people still choose to cap their level in the final stages to get various rewards.

“Yes, it’s said that there’s a professional named Kane who has played in the league for thirty years and never won a championship.”

“I heard his stats have accumulated to the point where one skill can instantly kill a monster of the same level. He’s truly abnormal.”

Just as everyone was resting and discussing, Lu Qinghan’s voice rang out.

“Lin Xuan, my father wants to meet you to discuss your compensation in detail.”

“As for the compensation for the others, the Lu family has already contacted your respective family representatives.”

When they came out of the normal dungeon, Lu Qinghan had already contacted her father.

Now, he had just replied to her message, saying that the Lu family had already begun to act on the compensation she had promised.

“Meet me? Alright.”

Lin Xuan nodded, then asked with some hesitation, “Your Lu family is really okay with providing fifty billion?”

“Fifty billion in cash is indeed very difficult, so the compensation for the others will most likely be calculated in terms of family resources.”

“However…” Lu Qinghan paused for a moment, then continued, “For you alone, it’s completely fine.”

“Congratulations, Lin Xuan, you’re already a billionaire.”

“Haha, Captain, you’re rich now, you have to treat us.”

“Too bad, this money still goes into the old man’s pocket. Qinghan, why don’t you see if you can just give me a few billion directly?”

“If it works, I’ll treat everyone after we clear the dungeon!”

The few of them chatted and laughed, rested for half an hour, and then entered the dungeon again.

Normal and Hard modes had already been cleared.

Having become familiar with the mechanics, they smoothly completed Nightmare and Hell modes as well.

And they still topped the clearance rankings for both difficulties.

Just like before, not as many people were paying attention to the Shili Slope dungeon speedrun leaderboard anymore.

The High School League was in full swing, already at match point.

Most professionals were looking up, intently staring at the central crystal’s projection.

“Phew, that was too dangerous just now. Willow Ghost’s branch hit me once, and I was at critical health.”

After completing the Hell difficulty dungeon, the few of them were still a bit shaken.

Although they broke the record, it was truly thrilling.

Lin Xuan’s Frost Giant pet even died once.

Contract beasts are not summons.

If they die, they are lost forever.

If not for Su Xiuxiu the Priest, and the fact that resurrection skills could be used from Nightmare difficulty upwards, Lin Xuan would have permanently lost this mutated Frost Giant.

As the few of them rested, the Sword Cultivator Chen Yao looked at his backpack. There weren’t many supplies left, so he asked,

“What do you say, Lin Xuan, do you want to continue challenging the World-Ending difficulty?”

“I feel the difficulty is indeed a bit high. Most of our equipment is still from before level twenty.”

Lin Xuan drank a bottle of energy potion to restore his stamina.

He glanced around and could tell that everyone was a bit tired.

After all, four dungeons had already taken nearly ten hours.

They had started in the morning and it was already late at night.

Since that was the case, they would make a quick decision.

Lin Xuan laughed twice and replied, “Let’s do it. For World-Ending difficulty, I’m going to use that move.”

“What move is that?”

Hong Ying, without any regard for her image, lay sprawled on the floor and asked.

She could be said to be the most tired person in the entire team.

By the time they reached Nightmare and Hell difficulty dungeons, Skeleton Soldierss would be shattered by Peach Demon and Willow Ghost in two hits.

Afterward, she was almost entirely relied upon to pull aggro and tank at the front.

She was already so tired, and Lin Xuan seemed to still be holding back a move.

Wait, wait, Shen Hongying suddenly thought of something.

She sprang up with a carp-like movement, came before Lin Xuan, and asked, “Are you thinking of using that move from the final stage of the martial arts exam?”

“Yes, that way it might be a bit slower, but it’s safer.” Lin Xuan nodded.

“You guys rest first, I’ll go replenish some mana potions. When I get back, we’ll start the World-Ending difficulty dungeon.”

As his voice fell, Lin Xuan walked towards the hall’s trading area.

After replenishing his mana potions and bringing some for his teammates, Lin Xuan returned to the team, and they entered the dungeon.

Soon, as several figures appeared before the Shili Slope dungeon entrance, Lin Xuan and his team completed the Shili Slope record for all difficulties, taking first place!

At this time, the High School League champion had already been decided, and the Dungeon Hall was bustling.

Lin Xuan and the others had a big meal nearby, parted ways, then followed Lu Qinghan to the Lu family to meet the Deputy City Lord, and finally returned home to rest.

The next morning, Lin Xuan left without saying goodbye to anyone.

He headed alone to Jiangcheng’s teleportation array.

“Jianghai City, here I come.”
