Powerful New Students at Capital University

The Military District's mess hall is very spacious.

It looks to be about 1,000 square meters.

Inside, there were only tables and chairs, with no other decorations.

It looks very simple, which is in line with the style of the Military District.

It was noon, and the mess hall was full of soldiers eating.

Lin Zichen used [Danger Perception] to secretly assess the Biological Rank of these soldiers.

A small number of cases may be due to a significant difference in levels, making it impossible to perceive.

Of those that can be sensed, almost half are Advanced Being.

Their average skill level is ridiculously high.

Moreover, many of them exude a menacing aura.

The pressure was extremely strong.

He must have been fighting a lot in the Origin Land; his hands were stained with blood...

Lin Zichen thought to himself.

Soon, the group swiped their cards to get their food and found a random spot by the window to sit down and start eating.

"Xiao Chen, this food is delicious! It's much better than the school cafeteria food!"

Shen Qinghan took a bite of the food, and her beautiful, watery eyes lit up immediately, her pretty face full of surprise.

She originally thought that such a large canteen must be serving mass-produced meals that probably wouldn't taste good.

Now I realize that I was biased.

"Xiao Chen, you should try some."

Shen Qinghan picked up a piece of fried tofu and affectionately brought it to Lin Zichen's lips.

Lin Zichen didn't think too much about it, opened his mouth and ate it. After tasting it, he nodded in agreement and said, "The taste is indeed quite good."

Oh shit!

Showing off their love in front of single people.

Is this something a human could do?!

Seeing Shen Qinghan feeding Lin Zichen fried tofu, Li Moyu and Luo Yongjian were incredibly jealous and inwardly cursed.

Ma Xiwei didn't feel anything; at this stage, she wasn't interested in romantic relationships.

She had only one thought in her mind: to become stronger, stronger, and ever stronger!

He's strong enough to make his father Ma Zhenhe, proud!

She was strong enough to make her father hold his head high and be proud in front of her maternal grandparents!

"Xiwei, feed me a piece of tofu. I want to experience the wonderful feeling of being fed by a beautiful woman."

Li Moyu looked at Ma Xiwei opposite her and made this foolish request to her.

Without even raising her head, Ma Xiwei coldly cursed, "Get out!"

"Puff!"

Seeing Li Moyu being scolded, Luo Yongjian laughed gleefully, almost spitting out his food.

Li Moyu chuckled awkwardly to ease the tension.

He guessed that Ma Xiwei admired strength and would likely be attracted to him, who was stronger, so he tried interacting with her to see if they could develop a relationship.

Unexpectedly, Ma Xiwei completely ignored him; he'd made a complete fool of himself.

At that moment, five people entered the dining hall.

Four men and one woman.

They all looked to be around 20 years old.

Lin Zichen was sitting facing the entrance and immediately saw the five people.

He first noticed the only girl among the five.

That girl was very pretty.

She has fair skin, a beautiful face, and a curvaceous figure.

The only drawback is that her calves and arms look a bit thick, with overly firm muscles, making her look less youthful and alluring than Shen Qinghan.

At this moment, the five people were walking around, curiously looking at the canteen, as if they were newcomers.

If nothing unexpected happens, these five people should also be top geniuses invited to participate in the special training, and most likely they are freshmen from Capital University.

The reason for guessing that it was a freshman from Capital University is that the other party is not Mechanical Cyborg, which directly rules out the possibility that they are from the Machine God Group.

Then, upon entering, he looked around and ruled out that he was from the Military District.

In conclusion, the only possible candidate is a freshman at Capital University.

Li Moyu confirmed Lin Zichen's guess.

Li Moyu looked at the five people from afar and said to the four people sitting together eating:

"Look over there at the entrance, those are the freshmen representing Capital University who are here for special training."

"The two men walking at the very front are my high school classmates. After the college entrance exam, they both applied to the Evolution Academy at Capital University."

"Those two, one was the second-place finisher in Capital City, and the other was the Capital City Third Place Scholar. They were both my defeated opponents, whom I utterly crushed for three years in high school."

As Li Moyu said those last words, her face was full of smugness, making her look incredibly irritating.

On the other side, the Capital City Runner-up and Capital City Third Place Scholar from Kyoto, whom he mentioned, also saw him and were walking towards him at a leisurely pace.

Before long, the group from Capital University walked up to the table and stopped.

Among them, the third- Third Place Scholar Capital City, a boy with eyes so small they were almost squinting, smiled at Li Moyu with a smug look on his face:

"Traitor, what a coincidence!"

The term "traitor" refers to Li Moyu, after taking the college entrance examination, did not apply to Capital University but instead applied to Mountain University, thus betraying the years of cultivation she received from the Capital University High School.

Li Moyu laughed and retorted directly, "You're the eternal third-place loser, who are you calling a traitor?"

"Me, a piece of trash?"

The boy with squinty eyes laughed too, completely disregarding Li Moyu, and said confidently, "Li Moyu, do you think this is still high school?"

"Times have changed. From the moment you chose to become a traitor and enroll at Mountain University, your abilities were destined to be surpassed by Qin Chuan and me."

"Now, you're the only piece of trash in our eyes, okay?"

The squinty-eyed boy's tone became increasingly arrogant, his words barbed and highly aggressive.

He looked down on Li Moyu, a traitor who had grown up with the resources of Capital University but ended up enrolling in a university in another province.

There is no need to respect traitors.

"You two don't even deserve it?"

Li Moyu retorted with a disdainful look, "You trash are so easy for me to take on two of you at once. You two should just go back to sleep!"

The atmosphere was highly charged, with both sides immediately engaging in heated exchanges and various personal attacks.

They just spew out insults without any restraint, calling people trash and useless.

Hearing the commotion, many soldiers eating nearby turned their heads to watch the spectacle with great interest.

"Li Moyu, shall we have a fight?"

The Capital City Runner-up, who had remained silent until now—the same Qin Chuan the squinty-eyed boy had just mentioned—suddenly looked at Li Moyu with a calm expression and asked a question.

Upon hearing Li Moyu stopped eating and immediately stood up, saying, "That's exactly what I wanted!"

He had no reason to refuse when his defeated foe came to humiliate him.

I'm going to have to stomp on his head hard later!

We'll trample them until they're completely convinced and never dare to cause trouble again!

"There's a Martial Platform on the training ground outside. Let's go over there and settle this once and for all."

After saying that, Qin Chuan turned and walked out of the canteen toward the Martial Platform on the playground.

Without saying a Li Moyu followed after him.

"Let's go, let's go too."

After saying that, Luo Yongjian quickly shoveled a few mouthfuls of rice into his mouth, then got up from his seat, chewing the rice in his mouth as he hurried after him.

Seeing Ma Xiwei silently got up and followed.

"Xiao Chen, let's go over there too."

After everyone had left, Shen Qinghan looked at Lin Zichen and said.

Lin Zichen showed no intention of getting up, continuing to eat slowly and deliberately while saying indifferently:

"Let's eat first, then we can go check it out, otherwise we'll go hungry this afternoon."

"Oh."

Shen Qinghan chose to sit quietly and eat, thinking that they would go over together after Lin Zichen finished eating.

That's what I thought, but I had absolutely no appetite.

His mind is entirely elsewhere.

I want to go out and watch the match.

On the contrary, Lin Zichen was not interested in the infighting among the weaklings outside; he just wanted to eat quietly.

But seeing that Shen Qinghan really wanted to go see it, he only ate a couple of bites of rice as a formality, then put down his chopsticks and said to her, "I'm full, let's go take a look."

"They haven't cleared their plates yet, let us help them clear them before we go over," Shen Qinghan, showing a strong sense of responsibility.

Lin Zichen didn't say anything, but silently helped her tidy up the plates on the table and put them where they belonged before they went outside together to watch the duel.

Leave the dining hall.

We arrived at the playground.

The two noticed that a large crowd of onlookers had already gathered around them.

Most of them were people who were originally going to eat in the cafeteria.

These people saw people about to spar on their way here, and since they were freshmen from two major universities who had come to participate in special training, they stopped to watch out of curiosity.

At this point, the duel had not yet begun.

In fact, there was no one on the Martial Platform at all.

The two players who were about to face off on stage were currently discussing the bets on their duel backstage.

Since we're going to have a showdown, with winners and losers, then let's gamble.

There's no point in gambling, even if you win.

After some discussion.

Ultimately, the two sides decided that the loser would have to call the winner "Grandpa".

Having determined the stakes for the duel, Li Moyu was the first to leap onto the Martial Platform, arrogantly shouting to the Capital City Runner-up and Capital City Third Place Scholar from Kyoto below:

"You two come at me together, so I don't waste time beating you up one by one!"

"There's no need for that. Gao Mu alone is enough to crush you."

Qin Chuan crossed his arms and said calmly.

The Gao Mu he mentioned was the squinty-eyed boy who ranked third in the college Third Place Scholar in Capital City, a student who was one place below him.

"Huh, him?"

Li Moyu sneered contemptuously, "I can crush him with one hand!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Mu leaped onto the Martial Platform and looked at Li Moyu, saying, "You arrogant fool, you'll soon find out what it means to be humiliated."

"Enough talk, let's fight!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Moyu activated the Demon Eye Giant Ape Gene and the Shadow Night Cat gene within her body. As her body grew larger, a pair of purple beast ears also sprouted on her head.

The Shadow Night Cat gene was fused by him at home last week, mainly to make up for his lack of speed, while also taking into account strength and agility, and developing in all aspects.

On the other side, Gao Mu also had an idea and activated the Exotic Beast genes dormant in his body.

Subsequently, his skin calcified at a visible rate, until it turned into incredibly hard scales.

Lin Zichen recognized the Exotic Beast genes that this freshman from Capital University had fused with.

It's the gene of the Armored Earth Dragon!

This is an earth-attribute Exotic Beast with extremely strong defense!

It was just an ordinary Tier 9 Armored Earth Dragon, yet its defense was so high that it could withstand a full-force punch from Advanced Tier 1 Demon Eye Giant Ape and emerge completely unharmed.

"Bang!"

A crisp sound of impact rang out.

On the Martial Platform, Li Moyu and Gao Mu had already started fighting.

Li Moyu launched the main attack, wielding her fists as big as casserole dishes and kicking with her legs as hard as steel pipes, each attack aimed at Gao Mu's vital points.

Gao Mu focused on defense, using his scales to withstand Li Moyu's attacks while looking for openings in Li Moyu's defenses to launch a counterattack.

The fight looked very intense.

But one can't hurt the other, and the other can't hit the other.

Neither can do anything about the other.

"Xiao Chen, these two seem evenly matched. If they keep fighting like this, the result will probably be a draw."

Shen Qinghan watched the fight from the sidelines for a while, and seeing that the two were evenly matched, she said this to Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen said calmly, "This duel won't end in a draw. That Gao Mu from Capital University will win."

"How so?"

Shen Qinghan turned her head to look at Lin Zichen and asked, somewhat puzzled.

She felt the situation on stage was evenly matched and didn't understand why Lin Zichen was so certain that the people from Capital University would win.

Lin Zichen leaned close to her ear and whispered an explanation:

"That person from Capital University is holding back, not using their full strength. I sensed that the person from Capital University has two kinds of Exotic Beast genes in their body, and one kind of Exotic Beast gene has not been activated. On the other hand, Li Moyu has already used her full strength."

Is that so?

Shen Qinghan blinked, still feeling puzzled.

How can you tell who didn't use their full strength?

Could it be Xiao Chen's superpower?

Can he see through other people's cards?

With that thought in mind, Shen Qinghan quickly focused her gaze on the Martial Platform.

She wanted to see if it was really as Lin Zichen said, and if the squinty-eyed boy from Capital University named Gao Mu would ultimately win the duel.

About two minutes later.

The two on the Martial Platform distanced themselves from each other.

Li Moyu looked at Gao Mu and frowned, saying, "Why did you have to fuse with Armored Earth Dragon gene that can only defend and not attack? You can only play like a tortoise and drag the game to a draw. It's pointless."

"Only able to defend, no attack? A draw?"

Gao Mu laughed, looking at Li Moyu with a mocking gaze, and said, "Scholar Li, is it possible that you've already used your full strength, while I haven't?"

The moment he finished speaking, a thought struck him, and he activated a new Exotic Beast gene.

Immediately afterwards!

His body began to grow at a visible rate!

His body is bulging with explosive muscles!

His entire body size increased by a full 50%!

It's the Demon Eye Giant Ape Gene.

This freshman at Capital University named Gao Mu, like Li Moyu, also possessed the Demon Eye Giant Ape Gene.

"That's impossible!"

Li Moyu couldn't believe what she was seeing and questioned, "With your talent, how could you possibly have successfully fused two different Exotic Beast genes at only your Tier 1? Something must be wrong!"

Gao Mu explained, "Li Moyu, it's true that my talent is not as good as yours."

"But!"

"Capital University's Gene Fusion technology is far superior to Mountain University's, allowing someone like me, whose talent is not as good as yours, to become a secondary Gene Fusionist in my first semester of university."

"Betraying Capital University and choosing to enroll at Mountain University will be the worst decision you've ever made in your life, bar none."

Having said that, Gao Mu stopped wasting words and immediately took a step forward, charging towards Li Moyu.

Gao Mu's attack speed wasn't fast, Li Moyu could easily dodge it.

However, Li Moyu didn't dodge at all.

In his eyes, Gao Mu had always been a defeated opponent.

His pride wouldn't allow him to dodge an attack from a defeated opponent.

We must go all out and confront them head-on!

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

A deafening crash resounded.

Li Moyu and Gao Mu exchanged punches wildly, neither of them showing any intention of dodging. It was a brutal exchange of blows, a contest of strength.

This exchange of punches lasted for a full half minute.

Ultimately, Li Moyu, whose defense was inferior to her opponent's, was the first to fall.

His fists were torn and fractured, and he was exhausted when his opponent knocked him off the Martial Platform with an Iron Mountain Lean, resulting in a regrettable loss of the duel.

"Traitor, call me grandpa!"

Having won the duel, Gao Mu walked to the edge of the Martial Platform and looked down at Li Moyu, shouting.

Li Moyu felt frustrated and tried to clench her fists, but as soon as she tried, she was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat. Both of her fists were comminuted fractures and she couldn't clench them at all.

If there weren't so many people around, he would have cried out in pain long ago.

"What, can't accept defeat?"

Seeing that Li Moyu hadn't called him "Grandpa" yet, Gao Mu's face was full of disdain.

Li Moyu accepted her loss.

He gritted his teeth, suppressing his humiliation, and shouted towards Gao Mu on the stage:

"Grandfather!"

After calling him "Grandpa"...

Li Moyu immediately got up and disappeared into the crowd to avoid further embarrassment.
