Fastest Promotion in History

The next morning.

When Jiang Hao once again stepped into the exclusive training hall of the Senior Year Key Class, he keenly sensed that today's atmosphere was completely different from yesterday's.

As he entered from the Virtual Immersion System login hall!

The classmates training fell silent for a moment.

Those gazes turned extremely complex—awe, curiosity, and deep disbelief.

Even Lin Qiu's expression looked unnatural when he saw Jiang Hao, deliberately avoiding his line of sight from afar.

With a single battle at the same grade level, Jiang Hao had crushed Zhao Wuji head-on.

That fight had already carved his own fearsome reputation in this gathering place of geniuses at Eighth Martial High's key class.

Add to that yesterday!

Comprehending Spear Intent in front of everyone!

He was already a fierce dragon crossing the river.

Jiang Hao's expression remained calm, ignoring all of this as he walked straight to the corner, ready to begin today's training.

Lin Fan's face was dark and terrifying!

He said nothing.

Lin Qiu, head lowered, hid behind Lin Fan, not daring to meet Jiang Hao's eyes.

Su Qingning arrived on time as well. Her cool, clear gaze swept across the room, paused on Jiang Hao for half a second, and she gave an almost imperceptible nod, a greeting of sorts.

"Fall in!"

After Jiang Hao and the others had warmed up for a while!

Mentor Luo Cheng's figure appeared right on schedule.

His aura was still as deep as an abyss, but today, a barely concealed smile lingered on his usually stern face.

All the students quickly assembled.

Luo Cheng's gaze landed on Jiang Hao first.

"Today, before training begins, I have an important announcement to make."

"It concerns Classmate Jiang Hao."

Everyone's hearts instantly tightened.

Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.

"Yesterday in class, Classmate Jiang Hao observed the martial demonstration, had a sudden epiphany, and comprehended Spear Intent."

Luo Cheng's voice was resonant, as if carrying a magical power, clearly reaching every ear.

"I have reported this matter to the Principal's Office."

"After unanimous deliberation between the Principal and the School Board."

Luo Cheng paused, his eyes full of approval.

"Classmate Jiang Hao's potential is extraordinary; he is a Once-in-a-Century Talent of our Eighth Martial High."

"The original B-Class Treatment is insufficient to support his cultivation."

"Therefore!"

"Classmate Jiang Hao's resource treatment is hereby upgraded from B-Class to A-Class!"

"Effective immediately!"

Luo Cheng's voice crashed down like a divine thunderbolt from the nine heavens!

After a full three seconds of Deathly Stillness in the entire training hall.

It completely erupted!

"Hiss—!"

Gasps of air came in waves!

The whole place was in an uproar!

"A... A-Class Treatment?"

"Did I hear that wrong? Less than a week, and he goes from B-Class to A-Class Treatment?!"

"Got B-Class on his first day in class! Upgraded to A-Class Treatment in less than a week?"

"What kind of promotion speed is this? The fastest record since Eighth Martial High was founded, right?"

"Crazy!"

"A-Class Treatment—that's the same level as Senior Lin Fan!"

"Not just that—A-Class means three High-grade Nutrient Solutions per month and elite Mentor guidance, but Jiang Hao comprehended Spear Intent. The weight of his A-Class Treatment is probably even higher than Senior Lin Fan's!"

The students went completely wild, their gazes toward Jiang Hao filled with envy and admiration!

In the corner.

Lin Fan's already gloomy face was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

The fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms!

A-Class!

Even Jiang Hao had gotten an A-Class!

This not only matched him in resources but also posed the most serious challenge to his status as "second in the Key Class"!

Lin Qiu's face was ashen, his lips twitching as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound!

Lin Qiu never imagined!

They had all just stepped into the Key Class, so how was Jiang Hao performing so outrageously!

Damn it!

Amidst this overwhelming uproar.

Only Su Qingning maintained her usual cool composure. She quietly watched Jiang Hao, who stood at the center of the storm with an unchanged calm expression, and a glint of "just as I thought" flashed through her beautiful blue eyes.

An A-Class treatment?

Su Qingning shook her head slightly inwardly.

Still too low.

Given Jiang Hao's heaven-defying potential in comprehending Spear Intent the moment he entered the Key Class.

A guaranteed Grandmaster seedling.

In Su Qingning's view, even if the school immediately gave him the same S-Class treatment as her right now.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration.

At the same time.

On an alien battlefield stained by war and blood, tens of thousands of light-years away from Dragon Star.

"Roar--!"

As the last Goblin Chieftain with a Blood Energy of 15.0 was cleaved in two, weapon and body alike, by a Door-plate Axe.

Chen Xuan's burly figure, bathed in a rain of green blood, looked like a demon god returning from hell.

His Blood Energy of 14.8, after this high-intensity life-or-death battle, faintly showed signs of another breakthrough.

"Hoo..."

"The S-Class treatment is mine."

Chen Xuan slowly exhaled a puff of hot white breath, in a very good mood!

Then he opened his Personal Terminal, and sure enough, the internal system of First Martial High had sent a promotion notice.

He, Chen Xuan, with indisputable combat merits, had officially ascended to the S-Class treatment of First Martial High!

Just as he was about to arrange his return to Rongguang City.

An encrypted message from Eighth Martial High popped up.

It was from an informant he had planted.

Chen Xuan casually opened it.

"Brother Xuan! Big trouble!"

"That Jiang Hao has stirred up trouble again!"

"During Luo Cheng's Grandmaster class, he had an epiphany in public and comprehended Spear Intent!"

"Ten Thousand Spears Submission! The whole school saw it!"

"The Principal's Office of Eighth Martial High just passed a resolution to raise his treatment from B-Class to A-Class!"

"Brother Xuan, this guy... this guy's momentum is too fierce. He's only been in the Key Class for less than a week!"

Chen Xuan stared at the information on the light screen, and for the first time, the chiseled, hard-faced man's expression lost its contempt.

His sharp eyes narrowed slightly.

"Spear Intent?"

"A-Class treatment?"

Chen Xuan slowly pulled the giant axe from the goblin's corpse.

"Heh."

A cold, mocking laugh escaped Chen Xuan's throat.

"No wonder he caught Qingning's attention."

"So he really isn't just a flea that knows how to cut corners."

"He does have some skill."

Far from showing fear, a fiercer fighting spirit blazed in Chen Xuan's eyes.

"But."

"That's what makes it interesting."

"If he were too weak, wouldn't crushing him with my own hands be boring?"

Chen Xuan lifted his head as he spoke, gazing at the dark red sky as if he could already see the stage that would draw the eyes of thousands two months from now.

"Jiang Hao, is it?"

"I hope you can bring me a little surprise at the 'Collegiate Joint Examination.'"

"I'll make you understand the true gap between you and me."
