7: Chapter 7: The Collapse of Values! Beidi University!

Wild Boar Forest.

"Three hundred and one!"

"Three hundred and two!"

In a clearing by the river.

Li Fan was silently doing squats while carrying a massive rock on his back that looked like a small mountain.

At this moment, Li Fan had already stripped off his shirt, revealing a body full of explosive muscles.

Compared to ten days ago,

the aura emanating from Li Fan's body was clearly many times stronger.

It had to be said, this feeling of getting stronger bit by bit was truly addictive.

If not for the rising and setting of the sun, he wouldn't even have noticed the passage of time.

Boom!

The rock fell, blasting a crater nearly half a meter deep into the ground.

Li Fan immediately drank his fill of spring water and began devouring the wild boar meat he had prepared long ago.

"I didn't expect ten days to have passed already."

Checking the date on his phone, Li Fan couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.

Time really flies!

By a rough calculation, there were only about five or six days left until the entrance exams for the various Martial Arts Universities.

He tapped open his attribute panel.

"Name: Li Fan

Level: Lv7 (23/20000)

Strength: 5732

Defense: 5909

Spirit: 5820"

Ten days of bitter cultivation.

Li Fan's level had already broken through to Level 7, and his attributes in all areas had reached an inconceivable level.

By a rough estimate, these stats could completely rival many Awakened Ones around Level 25!

As for this result,

Li Fan was indeed very satisfied.

But to be honest,

he was truly sick of eating this wild boar meat by now.

He no longer wanted to stay in this place.

He stood up and packed his things.

Li Fan then set off toward the exit.

Next,

the problem he needed to face was choosing a university.

He didn't plan on hiding his freakish Body-refining Talent.

On the contrary, he planned to rely on this talent to see if there was a chance to get special admission into some top-tier universities.

The better the university, the more resources he could get for free, and the more opportunities he'd have to broaden his horizons.

He had absolutely no interest in going to some third or fourth-rate university.

Currently, the university he wanted to attend most was North Emperor University.

As the top-ranked institution among the Great Xia's ten most prestigious Martial Arts Universities,

it clearly had the most resources.

If he could go there, his Body-refining Talent would definitely progress even faster, and he could reach true invincibility sooner.

However, North Emperor University's standards for special admission were higher than many of the other top ten schools.

He wasn't sure if he could get in yet.

...

Walking out of the secret realm,

looking at the skyscrapers that came into view,

Li Fan felt truly excited.

After living in the wild for ten days straight, coming back really felt like he had transmigrated all over again.

"Holy crap! So handsome!"

"Oh my god! That physique is insane!"

"Such a manly body! I wish he were my boyfriend!"

"Tsk! Not even wearing a shirt, just wants the girls to see his body, right? What a show-off!"

Hearing the discussions around him,

Li Fan finally realized that he had actually come out without a shirt on.

He couldn't help it; he was already getting unaccustomed to wearing clothes.

Quickly leaving the scene,

Li Fan rushed toward his home.

His current filthy appearance was indeed not very presentable.

On the bus,

Li Fan opened his message inbox for the first time in a while.

The first thing that caught his eye was, unsurprisingly, messages from Gu Ling.

There were dozens of them.

"Brother Fan, are you busy?"

"Brother Fan, I'm leveling up so fast, I'm already Level 5!"

"Brother Fan, I'm already Level 10, do you want me to carry you through some levels?"

"Brother Fan, which university are you planning to apply for? I want to go to the same city as you so we can be closer."

...

Looking at these messages,

Li Fan couldn't help but scratch his head, starting to sweat nervously.

He had been focused on training in the Wild Boar Forest, so he had directly muted his notifications.

He hadn't expected this little girl to send him so many messages in one go.

Seeing this, Li Fan couldn't help but feel apologetic.

If it were anyone else and the other person never replied, they would probably be angry.

Yet Gu Ling had been gentle throughout, even making up excuses for him, wondering if he was tied up with something.

To be fair, Gu Ling was really a bit too good to him.

The last message Gu Ling sent

was news that she had already headed to Beizhou City to prepare for the Azure Vault University entrance exam.

Azure Vault University was the second-ranked Martial Arts University in Great Xia, and it was just across the street from North Emperor University.

Li Fan wasn't surprised at all that Gu Ling went to this university.

Because Healing-type Talents were simply too rare. Even though Gu Ling only had a B-grade Healing-type Talent, if it were a combat-type, it could be treated as A-minus or even A-plus grade.

At this level, it would be strange if she didn't get into a top school.

Soon,

Li Fan sent a message back to Gu Ling.

"Lingling, sorry, I've been in a secret realm this whole time and didn't check my messages."

"I should be heading to Beizhou City in a few days as well. You go ahead, and when I arrive, I'll take you out for something delicious!"

Li Fan wasn't someone who liked to play hard to get.

He had said before that they would talk about romance after starting university.

Now that university was right around the corner,

he naturally wouldn't go back on his word.

To be honest, Gu Ling actually fit his criteria for a partner quite well in all aspects; it was just that the emotional foundation wasn't quite there yet.

But feelings would come naturally after spending more time together.

On the other end,

seeing the message from Li Fan, Gu Ling immediately perked up, and a faint blush gradually spread across her cheeks.

She then replied to Li Fan,

"Waiting for you."

Along with it, she sent a happy and cute emoji.

Seeing Gu Ling like this, Liu Mei, who was beside her, was truly speechless. Her poor, love-struck best friend was being played like a fiddle by this man!

...

Li Fan returned home.

The first thing he did was take a refreshing hot shower.

"Refreshing!"

Compared to the ice-cold river water in the secret realm, home was much more comfortable.

After showering, Li Fan turned on his computer to handle the registration for the North Emperor University entrance exam.

Having successfully completed the registration,

Li Fan bought a ticket for the next available train to Beizhou City.

The departure time was the day after tomorrow in the afternoon.

In other words,

Li Fan now had less than two days to rest properly.

However, resting was out of the question.

Just to be safe, he still needed to push his stats a bit higher.

As the top institution in Great Xia, North Emperor University had deep roots and must have seen countless genius monsters with physical enhancements.

What he needed to do was stand apart from those people.

He needed to be in a league of his own!

And so,

Li Fan didn't stop, immediately deciding on the next secret realm to visit.
