110: Chapter 110 After Single-Handedly Destroying the Training Ground
Yun Zhuo was going on a killing spree in the Advanced Zone, and the people waiting in the monitoring hall to watch the show couldn't sit still anymore.
They had originally wanted to see Yun Zhuo scared out of his wits, but instead, they saw a madman who killed monsters without blinking.
"Exactly what level is that kid? He's been slaughtering through the Advanced Zone from south to north, and east to west all by himself. After killing for so long, I haven't even seen a single basic attack; it's all Martial Skills.
Where is he getting all that spiritual energy?"
"I heard that when he arrived at the school the day before yesterday, the dormitory assigned to him was the Listening Wind Tower. Logically speaking, he shouldn't even be Level 20 yet."
"That's impossible. If he's not even Level 20, how could he have so much spiritual energy to squander?"
"Damn it, he's using Flowing Wind Twin Instant Shot, and I learned Flowing Wind Twin Instant Shot too. I'm Level 40 now, and even I wouldn't dare to squander it like he does."
"Wait a minute, don't you guys suspect that the kid's Martial Skill has leveled up?"
"It's only been how long? He's already leveled up?"
"Don't forget, it only took him two shots to reach the entry level for these Martial Skills."
"If that's the case... I... damn... who was it that said we were here to watch a good show? You guys watch it; I'm out. The more I watch, the angrier I get."
They were still waiting to see Yun Zhuo get scared shitless by a sudden attack from a Mutated Beast.
Instead, the guy showed off a wave of Martial Skills right in front of them, letting them know what a true Genius really is.
An Earth Rank High Grade Martial Skill reached entry level in two shots, and then improved again within a single day—is he even human? Is this something a human can do?
Du Biao and Luo Sen had originally only clicked on the video about Teacher Su on the campus network to follow their goddess.
Instead, they saw Yun Zhuo slaughtering everyone in the training grounds. Within a single day, an Earth Rank High Grade Martial Skill went from entry level to proficiency, and even reached Major Achievement.
As for whether Yun Zhuo had already practiced to Major Achievement, they didn't even dare to think about it.
Yun Zhuo's performance today filled them both with worry, because they still had a private arena match with him.
It was agreed that it would take place after the placement exam.
Originally, the two of them were certain of victory, but now, it was hard to say.
After that kid took Teacher Su into the Advanced Zone, he hadn't used a basic attack once, killing his way through entirely with Martial Skills.
Whether it was a Level 30 Mutated Beast or a Level 40 one, they were all finished in one move.
You're telling me these are the results a person who isn't even Level 20 can produce?
He's already this powerful now; who knows what he'll be like in a month. No matter how they thought about it, they felt they had fallen for that kid's trap.
"Don't be afraid, isn't there still a month left?"
Seeing Luo Sen's worried expression, Du Biao comforted him.
Luo Sen nodded. "What the hell am I afraid of? You think I'm like you? Isn't there still a month? It's still up in the air whether that kid can even survive Young Master Chen's hands by then."
"Exactly. Offending Young Master Chen is just seeking death. By the way, where are you going at a time like this?"
"Doing missions to earn academic credits. Don't forget our bet with that kid; whoever loses has to pay twenty thousand academic credits. When the time comes, as long as I take the initiative to admit defeat, I won't have to go into the arena."
"Didn't you just say you weren't afraid?"
"Yeah, why would I be afraid of him? Can't I make two sets of preparations?"
"Besides, is it certain that I'll lose?"
"No matter how fast that kid is, it's impossible for him to reach Level 40 in a month, right?"
"Then wait for me, let's form a team together."
In Su Zixing's office, he slowly closed the desktop terminal.
Originally, he just wanted to see what Yun Zhuo would choose after learning about the Su Family's attitude.
When Yun Zhuo chose to face the difficulties head-on, it piqued his interest.
Then he saw Yun Zhuo's common-sense-defying martial Comprehension Ability.
Most people in this world define a War Spirit Master's talent only by the conversion efficiency of their corrosion energy furnace.
Very few people pay attention to a War Spirit Master's Comprehension Ability.
Little do they know that a War Spirit Master's means of attack are Martial Skills. Martial Skills must be learned, and the most important thing for learning them is Comprehension Ability.
The more Advanced the Martial Skill and Cultivation Technique, the higher the requirement for Comprehension Ability.
No matter how high the conversion efficiency of the corrosion energy furnace, how fast the leveling speed, or how much energy one has in reserve, what's the use if it can't be released?
Leaning against the back of his chair, he rubbed his temples.
He suddenly opened his wristband and found Su Jingzhou's number, but his finger hovering over the call button hesitated to descend.
If he told him that the person he looked down on was actually a Genius, would he believe it?
If he believed it, he wouldn't be Su Jingzhou.
Besides, to someone in his position, the rest of the world were just pigs, dogs, cows, and horses.
A Genius? Then they were just a Genius pig, dog, cow, or horse.
Sigh~
Su Shaoxing sighed softly and lowered his hand.
No matter how much potential that kid Yun Zhuo had, if he couldn't escape his status as a commoner, he would be no different from a pig or a dog in the eyes of the great families.
"But, what does this have to do with me? Why am I worrying about a kid I've never even met?"
He opened his wristband. Since he was bored, he might as well browse short videos online. Looking at girls in purple Daoist robes was better than overthinking this.
In Ji Shuyue's office, hearing a knock at the door, she turned off the holographic screen on her wristband.
"Enter!"
Ji Shuo pushed open the door and saw his sister's executive chair facing the scenery outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window.
"Sister."
"What is it?"
"When I was drinking with Ji San'er last night, I mentioned Chen Qi's intention to propose to the Su Family."
"What did you say?"
"I just repeated what Chen Qi said yesterday. Chen Qi has already put the word out that he's going to the Su Family to be a Live-in Son-in-law, and that he won't marry anyone in this life except for The two Su sisters."
Seeing that his sister didn't speak, he added: "Sister, you think Ji San'er will tell Ji Gang, right?"
"There's no need to take such things to heart."
"No need to take it to heart? Sister, wasn't this your idea?"
"If I don't want to be cannon fodder, I have to get rid of Ji Gang. The opportunity is rare, and now you're telling me not to take it to heart. How can I not?"
Ji Shuyue frowned and turned her chair around, looking at the indignant Ji Shuo. "It's precisely because this matter is so important to you that you cannot take it to heart."
"This whole thing is playing with fire. If you show this much concern, are you worried you're not dying fast enough?"
"What do you mean? Why do I feel like you're setting me up?"
"What good would setting you up do me?"
"Your task is only to light the spark, not to fan the flames after the fire is lit."
"Besides, you're not someone who is good at playing mind games. You want to learn to fan the flames like others? Aren't you afraid of getting burned?"
"So what you mean is, this matter ends here, and we don't interfere anymore?"
"Exactly. Just telling Ji San is enough. Everything else has nothing to do with us."
Ji Shuyue finished, and seeing that her brother still looked unconvinced, she added: "Do you know why the family didn't fully support your promotion to professor last time?"
"Why?"
"Because you are impulsive and lack depth. Such a person brings no help to the family, so why would they fully support you?"
"You guys..."
"Alright, don't look like you've been deeply wronged."
"Your impulsiveness is seen as a bad thing by others, but what I want to tell you is..."
"Bad things can be turned into good things because it can become your camouflage. Everyone knows you lack depth, so no one will suspect you of playing tricks."
"Just remember my words. In this life, as long as you master the trick of lighting the spark, you can become the most unpredictable blade."
Ji Shuo listened thoughtfully. "By the way, sister, something seems to have happened to that kid Yun Zhuo. Do you know about it?"
