284: Chapter 288 Reunion with Hao Bo and Hao Nan

Ji Yuandao was not a native of the Magic Net Great World.

He came from a vast and magnificent Martial Dao World.

From childhood, he was a Genius in the way of the sword.

His father was revered as the Sword God,

a Peak existence in that world.

But one day,

everything changed.

His world was invaded by a strange species called Abyss Monsters.

In less than a month,

countless Abyss Monsters had submerged their world.

Everyone died,

even the legendary Sword Ancestor did not escape.

At that time, Ji Yuandao was only 18 years old.

He fought side by side with his father,

until the very last moment of battle.

Finally,

his father gave up his own life

just to buy more time for Ji Yuandao.

But surviving was not that easy.

Ji Yuandao could not escape the pursuit of those monsters.

He died under the sharp claws of those Abyss Monsters.

However, Ji Yuandao felt no great pain at the moment of his death,

because everything he loved had vanished—

his father, mother, and fiancée—everyone was dead.

So Ji Yuandao never even thought of escaping.

He was captured directly.

Ji Yuandao had only one regret:

that he failed to eliminate the monsters that destroyed everything.

As the sharp claws pierced his heart,

he closed his eyes.

But when he opened his eyes again,

his Soul had entered the body of an infant.

Or rather, he was Reincarnated with the memories of his past life.

He was born into the Ji Family of Sword Saints,

the same Family as the Crimson Sword Saint Ji Wuchang.

Ji Yuandao's father in this life was also a very formidable Hunter and Swordsman.

Ji Yuandao displayed extraordinary talent in the way of the sword from a very young age,

because he retained his memories from his previous life.

He quickly became the most outstanding child in the Ji Family.

However, the most important and greatest secret in his life was his System.

The "Warrior System."

This System was activated when he was five years old.

Although the Magic Net Great World had game-like Systems,

Ji Yuandao's personal System was clearly far superior.

Its function was simple:

The System would give him missions.

The braver he completed the mission,

the higher the reward would be.

He completed his first mission with a one-star rating,

thereby obtaining the Transcendent Talent "Sword Monarch."

It was precisely because of this Talent

that he became the absolute leader among the younger generation.

Even other talents of the same level

paled in comparison to him.

Because this was granted by the System,

and over the years,

he had completed many missions

and obtained countless rewards.

For example, Innate Sword Body, Sword Sense, and even the Great Five Elements Extinction Sword—a Transcendent-level swordsmanship from the System.

Ji Yuandao was establishing his own influence,

because he knew he would inevitably face many enemies.

The System also told him

that this was just the beginning.

Once he reached a certain Realm,

the System would upgrade,

and he could leave this world

for a larger one.

Now, Ji Yuandao sat atop the corpse of a Vicious Beast,

contemplating the new mission given by the System:

"Befriend Lu Fu."

So, he needed to find this Lu Fu first,

before he could become his friend.

The focus of the mission was how to truly find that person.

The System's missions never came out of thin air.

Since it gave him this mission,

the other party must be nearby.

When he met that person,

the System would notify him.

He didn't need to keep guessing.

"Alright, today's hunt ends here. Let's return to the Academy first. Have the new students reported yet?"

"There should be a banquet tonight that requires my attendance,"

Ji Yuandao thought to himself.

Then, he cut off the head of the corpse,

taking all the important parts.

Afterward, he left the Beast God Great Forest.

Lu Chen was sleeping in his room.

He slept for a full three hours during his nap.

He finally woke up.

After washing up,

just as he was putting on his clothes,

he heard a knock on the door.

"It must be someone Luo Su sent."

Lu Chen opened the door,

only to find Luo Su himself.

Lu Chen smiled,

"Senior, I didn't expect you to come in person."

Luo Su said,

"New student recruitment is over now."

"Besides you, we also recruited three other new students. However, two of them are A-rank, and one is S-rank."

"So, I naturally should first build a good relationship with you, the most talented one, which is why I came,"

Luo Su said with a smile.

Lu Chen was speechless.

"Damn, you are too straightforward. Fine, I like straightforward people. Shall we go now?"

Lu Chen also smiled.

Luo Su nodded.

The two quickly left the dormitory.

Luo Su was an SS-rank Awakener,

so he also belonged to the S-rank dormitory.

The banquet was to be held in a room at the Sacred Sword Society's club building.

Today,

all the other societies were also holding banquets.

The club building was packed with people.

Lu Chen soon spotted some familiar faces.

It was Hao Bo and Hao Nan.

The pair of siblings who caused a huge stir on the day of their Awakening.

Hao Nan had awakened the Transcendent Talent, Devouring Body, which was above X-rank.

And Hao Bo had awakened the X-rank talent, Myriad Forms Body.

Lu Chen had a good impression of them.

Hao Bo was more outgoing,

and he communicated well with him.

Hao Nan, on the other hand, was more introverted.

However, they were both good people.

Furthermore,

Lu Chen could tell that there were secrets within Hao Nan's body.

These secrets might be terrifying,

so he had been paying close attention to her.
