Cracked Mountain Secret Realm.
As buses drove away from Shanzhou City, heading to various destinations.
News of the conclusion of the Martial Exam began to spread rapidly throughout Ying Province.
Although the results haven't been officially released, people with inside information have leaked them every year, and this year's results are even more explosive than in previous years, so naturally, this year is no exception.
There are two main pieces of news that have been making headlines --
Ye Li, a martial artist from Linhai City, won this year's Ying Province Martial Exam championship with a score far exceeding his competitors!
[The highly anticipated Yang Family Twin Stars have both perished, not even getting a whiff of exhaust fumes from the Martial Arts University!]
In forums related to "Martial Arts High School," many students from Ying Province are starting threads to discuss it.
"Who is this Ye Li? He snatched the championship from Shanzhou First High School?!"
"Isn't that the one who was recently rumored to have been admitted to Fengyun University through a special admission program?!"
"Wow, this guy totally stunned me. When did Linhai First High School get such an amazing Martial Science Student?!"
"I'll be entering Martial Arts High School next year, and I'll take the entrance exam for Linhai First High School!"
"Upstairs, what's impressive isn't the school, it's this Ye Li..."
"Following the crowd will surely lead to certain death. I choose Qingshan First High School; who knows, I might even get into the Qingshan Sword Pavilion after graduation!"
"Does no one care about the crying from Shanzhou First High School? All the teachers thought they were going to make a name for themselves this time, but the Yang Family Twin Stars have really pulled a huge stunt!"
"..."
The Martial Exam champions of Ying Province had been dominated by Shanzhou First High School for many years, so when they were finally taken away, the news spread like wildfire.
People seemed pleased to see this unexpected upset.
There are also rumors that the reason why the Yang family's twin stars were eliminated so quickly was because they encountered a young martial artist named Ye Li in the core area.
If things continue to develop in this way, the results of this year's Martial Exam will most likely be the only one that is different from those in recent years, and Ye Li's name will be seen and remembered by future Martial Science Student.
As night fell, the bus finally entered the territory of Linhai City.
A quiet residential area in Linhai City.
A weary traveler, Ye Li returned to his home after a long absence, took out the golden waist token, and couldn't hide his joy.
Since joining Fengyun University, he has been able to directly access the Fengyun University's Book Repository collection through this gold medal.
It can be said that it includes everything from Fifth Tier Cultivation Method to Second-Tier Martial Skill Cultivation Method; the only difference is the quantity included.
Moreover, judging from the nature of these types of colleges...
If Fifth Tier Cultivation Method can be kept in the Book Repository, then even a sixth-tier Cultivation Method is highly likely to be available to someone within the academy...
Although these martial arts skills cannot be directly exchanged at present, they can only be obtained by entering the main campus of the academy.
However, Ye Li now has the right to freely enter and leave Fengyun University, so this is not a major obstacle.
Recalling Lin Yinyun's words before she left, he couldn't help but smile.
"The road ahead is bright and clear..."
Ye Li chuckled softly to himself.
There was another thing that concerned him greatly—
Before leaving.
Lin Yinyun seemed to remember something, and suddenly turned around to look at Ye Li, saying:
"By the way, besides being feature-rich, your 'Fengyun Gold Medal' also lets you view the rankings on the Fengyun Ranking in real time. You can check it out if you're interested."
"The Fengyun Ranking?"
"It's something the school developed to motivate students to improve. It ranks students based on their performance in completing tasks and their wins and losses in daily battles, creating a highly symbolic ranking."
Lin Yinyun took out her Silver Medal, shook it gently, and smiled, "There are only thirty spots available, all reserved for the most outstanding figures at Fengyun University —geniuses among geniuses."
"You're quite talented. I'm ashamed to admit my inferiority. It won't be long before you catch up to me."
"But compared to them, you still have a long way to go."
"They're all arrogant and proud individuals; you might run into them when you take on a mission someday."
"For your own sake, I still suggest you learn to be humble."
Upon hearing this, Ye Li tentatively activated the [Harmony Ring].
With a flash of light, the bewildered Lin Yinyun remained kneeling, watching Ye Li leave.
However, this lazy girl's personality was too Zen-like; she merely got up, dusted herself off, thought for two seconds, and then turned and left.
[You made the laid-back senior from Fengyun University kneel before you; your Malice Points increases by 500!]
That's a bit too little.
It's a pity he was a good person.
"Humble...?"
Returning to the present, Ye Li lay down on the bed, his thoughts churning.
It will likely take a few more days to get to Fengyun University, so there's no need to rush.
Furthermore, if all goes well, the S-Grade Refinement Method that Jiang Qingzhu promised will be delivered soon.
Third Order First Layer is about to become a thing of the past; the era of stat allocation is about to begin.
The 40,000 Malice Points lying quietly on the panel were the foundation for Ye Li's continuous progress.
PS:
My Corgi, whom I've only had for two days, had a persistent high fever this morning. I've been busy taking it to the vet all day, so there probably won't be a third update by midnight...
I'm very sorry! or2
We will compensate you immediately!
