Goddess's Punishment

Du Qiangwei was furious. She could not remember ever being this angry in all her life, so angry that even her years of self-discipline could not suppress the blazing rage in her chest!

Since when had Du Qiangwei become some commodity to be passed around? Especially that shameless bastard—she wanted nothing more than to carve him into a thousand pieces!

As she thought of carving him into a thousand pieces, hundreds of flying knives appeared around her, flickering continuously. The sight made Wei Zitong's scalp go numb, and goosebumps rose all over his body, itching unbearably.

"Die, you bastard!" Du Qiangwei shouted. The hundreds of flying knives froze amid their flickering, then poured down on Wei Zitong like a dense rainstorm!

Wei Zitong's expression changed drastically. He grabbed the unsuspecting Ge Xiaolun beside him and used him as a shield. Facing the hundreds of flying knives rushing at him, Ge Xiaolun's eyes filled with despair!

At the same time, Wei Zitong applied another "Body Indestructible" Buff to himself. Du Qiangwei's flying knives could travel through wormholes, and he only had enough energy for one Buff right now. He could not lock down the surrounding space like last time.

The instant the Buff was applied, Ge Xiaolun's body began shaking violently like a sieve, and he let out a rapid, bizarre string of sounds: "F-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-fuck..."

A flying knife struck the hand Wei Zitong was using to grip Ge Xiaolun's shoulder, ringing with the clash of metal. Wei Zitong reflexively withdrew his hand and bent over, bracing Ge Xiaolun's rapidly shaking body with his shoulder as he whispered, "Xiaolun, I'm counting on you!"

"W-W-W-W-Wei Z-Z-Z-Zitong, I-I-I-I curse your whole f-f-f-f-family for eighteen g-g-g-generations..." Every word Ge Xiaolun spoke came with a trembling effect, making it more bizarre the longer one listened.

"Fuck, that's brutal!" Zhao Xin watched with everything clenched, cold sweat breaking out all over him. "I've never seen Qiangwei this savage before!"

"That's because last time, Qiangwei kicked you into some godforsaken corner and you played dead!" Cheng Yaowen's teeth were chattering too. He had witnessed Du Qiangwei's special move before; she had sliced a whole layer off the balcony of B209 Dorm Room. This time, however, she had struck in anger, and it seemed even more powerful!

"Shouldn't we go help them?" Zhao Xin asked without much confidence. "Xiaolun is almost done for..."

"Help my ass—go back to sleep!" Cheng Yaowen screeched, spinning around and dashing into the dorm at incredible speed before slamming the door shut with a bang.

"Hey, Yaowen, you..." Zhao Xin had wanted to accuse Cheng Yaowen of being disloyal, but a series of bangs from closing doors rang out without end. In the blink of an eye, he was the only one left standing foolishly in the third-floor corridor. He screeched as well, pounding on the door and shouting, "Nima, Yaowen, open the door! Save me!"

"Why the hell are you pounding on it? It's not locked!" Cheng Yaowen roared from inside.

"Oh..." Zhao Xin replied quietly. He shoved the door hard and found that it really was unlocked. It had only gotten stuck because Cheng Yaowen had slammed it too hard.

"Get your ass in here and lock the door!" Cheng Yaowen roared from inside when he saw Zhao Xin still standing there in a daze.

Hearing the endless clanging from downstairs, Zhao Xin shuddered and scrambled into the dorm, locking the door at the fastest speed of his life.

After entering the dorm, Zhao Xin sat gloomily on a bed and asked, "Yaowen, are we really not going to help Xiaolun and the others?"

"We can't help. We can't beat her!" Cheng Yaowen sighed. "Qiangwei's Micro Wormhole Transport Technology is fucking wicked!"

"Damn it, we came here and haven't done a damn thing except get beaten up every day..." Zhao Xin complained bitterly. "I really don't know what I came here for!"

"It's fine. This is a test for us. Look, didn't we all survive?" Cheng Yaowen consoled him. Unlike Zhao Xin, he was not lost. He had known about his abilities from the start; he simply could not use them proficiently yet. Or rather, he did not dare use them. This was the deepest secret buried in his heart.

"That's true!" Zhao Xin nodded, seeming to regain a little confidence. "Then let's go help Xiaolun. We probably won't die, right?"

"That won't do. Xiaolun can take much more punishment than us. He can endure it, but we might not!" Cheng Yaowen waved his hand. "This is the Goddess's punishment!"

"What?" Zhao Xin looked at Cheng Yaowen's solemn expression in confusion. Then he looked up at the ceiling and asked, "Huh? Why is there an orange light installed on the ceiling?"

"An orange light... orange?" Cheng Yaowen abruptly looked up and saw an orange Light Orb floating beneath the ceiling. What made his skin crawl was that the Light Orb was growing brighter and larger!

"Stop!"

Cheng Yaowen and Zhao Xin screamed in terror at the same time. At the same moment, flames flared up inside B210 Dorm, accompanied by a deafening roar!

Cheng Yaowen and Zhao Xin flew out of the flames and crashed heavily beside Ge Xiaolun and Wei Zitong!

"Hahahaha, trash! Since everyone is here, this Goddess's test for you begins tonight!" Lena laughed as she stepped out from the group of girls. "You have two choices: walk out on your own and assemble in the dormitory square, or get blown out by this Goddess like those two losers?"

In an instant, the dorm doors of the entire Super God Class flew open, and disheveled boys rushed out in a panic.

Looking at the messily dressed boys, Lena nodded in satisfaction. Then she turned to Du Qiangwei and said, "Alright, Qiangwei, stop."

Du Qiangwei snorted coldly and waved her hand. All the flying knives vanished. Ge Xiaolun, who had taken the full brunt of the knife storm, was already unrecognizable. Not a single strip of cloth on his upper body remained intact. When Wei Zitong released him, he fell straight onto his back, revealing the almost completely unharmed Wei Zitong behind him.

"Hmph!" Du Qiangwei snorted and turned away, refusing to look at Wei Zitong's punchable face.

"Xiaolun, are you alright?" Zhao Xin kept shaking Ge Xiaolun, who lay motionless on the ground. As he shook him, he began crying and howling hoarsely, "Xiaolun, you died so horribly! Don't worry, I'll definitely take your body back to your parents intact!" With that, he moved to carry Ge Xiaolun away.

"Even if he's dead, he still needs to be blown up once!" Lena said with a cold laugh. "It's even easier to blow him up if he lies still!"

In an instant, Ge Xiaolun sprang to his feet and laughed loudly. "I'm not dead! I'm not dead! Hahahahaha!"

"Nima, Xiaolun, can't you play dead properly?" Zhao Xin said indignantly. "What's so bad about getting blown up once? Look at Yaowen and me—we got blown out by her, didn't we? I was just about to carry you away, for fuck's sake!"

"Huh?" Ge Xiaolun looked full of regret and prepared to pretend to be injured and lie back down.

But how could his little scheme fool Lena?

An orange Light Orb appeared out of thin air in Lena's palm. She sneered and said, "Trying to play dead again? Want this Goddess to grant your wish and make you actually die?"

"No, no, no!" Ge Xiaolun waved his hands repeatedly and instantly stood at attention.

Once Ge Xiaolun had settled down, Lena turned toward the other twenty-plus members of the Super God Class. Putting on a serious expression, she said, "Alright, listen up. I, Lena, the Sun of Light, am your class leader and your Goddess. Got it?"

"Y-y-you're that, uh, glowing sun thing?" Liu Chuang was the first to speak, but the moment the words left his mouth, he was blasted away with a boom!

Lena ignored Liu Chuang as he flew away and continued, "Anyone else who can't remember?"

"Got it!" everyone answered in unison.

"Who am I?" Lena shouted.

"Our Goddess, Lena, the Sun of Light!" everyone shouted back.

"Hahahaha!" Lena laughed loudly, raised a hand toward the sky, and shouted proudly, "I am God!"

Before anyone could mock whatever lunatic had appeared out of nowhere, orange Light Orbs flew from Lena's raised hand. On closer inspection, there was exactly one fewer than the number of male students in the Super God Class!

The night wind blew past, and the orange Light Orbs seemed to dance with it as they slowly drifted toward the crowd, accelerating more and more!

Rumble!

Blinding flames erupted one after another in the square before the boys' dormitory, accompanied by screams of agony and desperate cries!

Facing the continuously exploding flames, Lena's smiling face, illuminated crimson by the firelight, was breathtakingly beautiful!

"This is both your test and your punishment!"

She said with a smile.
