Five Days of Gains

November 1, 2019, afternoon, Real Universe, Donghai University, Room 414 of a dormitory.

Su Li opened his eyes and swept his gaze around, but no one was there.

"They're all out. That's rare!" he muttered. Then he stopped thinking about it, opening the Blue Screen.

Name: Su Li

Location: Real Universe-Donghai City-Donghai University

Rank: E- (37%)

Talent: Eat (Everything you can see is your food)

Carbon Element Manipulation (As long as you are willing, all carbon atoms can be arranged into whatever form you desire)

Shop: Unlocked

Resource Points: 654

PS: Population, land, wealth—everything you own can be converted into Resource Points.

Quests:

"Grolar Chapter"—Become a Superhuman and continue advancing along the Path of Superpowers. At every stage of the quest, you can obtain some Resource Points.

"Primal Chapter"—Slaughter. The meaning of life lies in slaughter. Amid endless slaughter, you will continuously obtain Resource Points.

"Tianling Chapter"—Celestial God Physique. Countless years ago, a celestial god fell here. Collect the celestial god's remains, and you will receive a reward of Resource Points.

After glancing at the Blue Screen, a smile curled up at the corners of Su Li's mouth. His smile grew even wider when he saw the Resource Points column.

Over the past few days, Su Li's luck had been neither good nor bad. The good thing was that he had not encountered any D-Class creatures on Primal Star, so he had stayed alive. The bad thing was that in five whole days, he had encountered only seven E-Class creatures—two E-Class and five E-.

As Su Li grew more proficient in using Carbon Element Manipulation, those seven E-Class creatures were nowhere near a match for him!

Even so, Su Li had killed only six of the seven creatures.

The one that escaped was an E-Class creature. That fellow seemed fairly intelligent. The moment it saw Su Li, it had turned around and fled without hesitation. As an E-, it seemed to specialize in speed as well. Su Li had chased it for a long time without catching up, and could only give up in the end!

Aside from the one that escaped, the flesh of the remaining six E-Class creatures naturally ended up in Su Li's stomach. That was precisely why his rank progress had reached thirty-seven percent.

Of course, Su Li's greatest gain was still the Resource Points. Although most of the beasts he had killed were only ordinary-level, he had still obtained nearly a thousand Resource Points. After spending three hundred points to materialize his thirty-seven percent rank progress, he now had six hundred and forty-five points left.

In other words, as long as he had enough energy, Su Li could immediately advance again and become an E-Class Superhuman.

There was no denying it—this speed was insane!

The energy would naturally have to come from Gorol Star. However, Su Li currently had no Credit Points and could not buy an energy source, so he could only leave these six hundred-plus Resource Points untouched for now!

Actually, Su Li had gone to Gorol Star several times over the past few days. He had naturally tried to earn Credit Points as well, but unfortunately, the results had been minimal. As the saying went, he could not handle intellectual work, while physical labor had all kinds of robots—cheap and durable ones at that. There was simply no need for him!

He was a dignified E- Superhuman, yet he could not even find a place to do manual labor!

Just as Su Li was thinking about this, the dormitory door suddenly opened. Zheng Hongyu and Zhang Yu walked in one after the other.

However, Su Li felt that the expressions on their faces were rather complicated. Had they suffered some kind of blow outside?

"What's wrong with you two?" Su Li asked casually.

"Hey!" The two of them sighed in unison.

Su Li: "..."

"Someone succeeded!" Zheng Hongyu suddenly blurted out.

"Hm?"

"The news has gone viral online. Liu Feng from the Class of 2017's Physical Education Department at Donghai University is suspected to be the first Superhuman since Huaguo announced Superpower Technology." Zhang Yu continued, "At least, no one has come forward to refute it so far. Everyone says he became a Superhuman the earliest!"

"We're both students at Donghai University. Why am I still just short of learning the Breathing Technique?" Zheng Hongyu sighed again.

Su Li had finally stopped provoking him over the past few days, but then another monster had appeared at Donghai University!

It hurt so badly.

"Oh? That fast? What a talent!" Su Li was slightly stunned when he heard the news.

However, if he calculated the time, eight full days had already passed since Superpower Technology was announced. It was hardly surprising that a Superhuman had appeared.

At that moment, Zhao Shengkai's voice rang out from the doorway. "That Liu Feng studies physical education. His body was probably already in good shape. After learning the Breathing Technique and adding a few Energy Potions, it's only natural that he became a Superhuman!"

As Zhao Shengkai spoke, he walked over to Su Li and handed him a box.

"What's this?" Su Li asked.

"The Energy Potions we bought. I brought yours back while I was at it!"

"Oh! Thanks." Su Li nodded as he accepted the Energy Potions.

"Su Li, keep it up! I believe in you!" Zheng Hongyu said as he looked at Su Li. "If you become a Superhuman now, I'll have something to brag about too. We can't let that musclehead have all the glory!"

Musclehead?

The corner of Su Li's mouth twitched. Even if the guy was from the Physical Education Department, that did not necessarily make him a musclehead, did it?

"All right. I'll do my best!"

Su Li opened the box containing the Energy Potions. As he stared at the two brownish-yellow bottles inside, he fell into thought.

The first Superhuman in the real world had already appeared, and his Energy Potions had arrived as well. If he became a "Superhuman" now, it should still be considered normal, right?

"Then I'll have a taste of this stuff!"

With a smile, Su Li opened both bottles of Energy Potion, tilted his head back, and drank them all.

"Hey, Old Su! Isn't drinking them like that a little reckless?" Zhang Yu said, somewhat speechless.

"It's fine. I can feel power surging through my body!" Su Li quickly said, then pretended to close his eyes.

Seeing Su Li like this, the three of them immediately fell silent. After all, in their eyes, Su Li had learned the Breathing Technique five days ago. Now that he had drunk the Energy Potions, perhaps he would become a Superhuman this time.

At such a crucial moment, they absolutely could not allow anything unexpected to happen!
