What's So Great About SSS-Class? You're Still That Ant!

Hearing the system prompt, Bai Zhou was naturally delighted, though he kept a perfectly casual expression on his face.

He also noticed another issue: Villain Roulette.

The first roulette only required him to accumulate 1,000 Destined Villain Value to unlock it. Why did the second one suddenly require 2,000?

Of course, none of that mattered.

After all, Bai Zhou had more than one way to obtain Destined Villain Value.

At that moment, Chu Yun, the big spender supplying Bai Zhou with Villain Value, was dumbfounded!

It was one thing for his girlfriend to go with Bai Zhou, but even his childhood sweetheart, Lin Wei—the girl who never spoke to anyone else and only knew how to trail behind him calling him "Brother Chu Yun"—had gone with Bai Zhou too?

No!

I, the Chosen One, refuse to believe it!

Taking three steps in two, he once again blocked Lin Wei's path and exclaimed dramatically:

"Weiwei, what's gotten into you?! How could you go with him?! He's Bai Zhou, that vile, evil young master—"

Slap!!

The third crisp smack rang out across the sports field.

That was right. Bai Zhou was still the one doing the hitting, and Chu Yun was still the one getting hit.

Chu Yun clutched his cheek and glared at Bai Zhou in shock and fury.

Meanwhile, Bai Zhou spoke with a devil-may-care grin.

"You still dare insult me to my face? Are you tired of living?"

Ding! Detected that you caused the Protagonist 10 points of physical damage and 99,999 points of mental damage. Destined Villain Value +200. Villain Roulette requires 1,700 more points to unlock!

It had gone up by two hundred at once this time?

But why did the mental damage have another digit?

After Bai Zhou's slap landed, the entire sports field erupted into an uproar:

"My god! Chu Yun has already awakened an SSS-Class Talent! He's a genius among geniuses, yet Bai Zhou still dared to hit him?"

"A talent like Chu Yun's only appears once in a century! Who knows how many big shots have already heard the news, and how many want to take him as their disciple!"

"Bai Zhou really dared to do it. He really hit him!"

"So what? Have you forgotten who Bai Zhou is? Behind him stands the Bai Family, one of the Four Great Conglomerates!"

"That's right! Don't forget that three of Dragon Country's Ten Great Masters come from the Bai Family!"

"If you put it that way... it makes sense. He didn't hit him hard enough."

"How about another one?"

"..."

The astonished chatter around him made Chu Yun's face turn increasingly livid!

Bai Zhou, on the other hand, remained calm amid the noise. He lightly shook out his hand and said to Lin Wei:

"Classmate Lin Wei, let's go."

Lin Wei lowered her head and softly replied, "Mm," before turning to follow him.

"Weiwei!" Chu Yun still wanted to stop her, but Lin Wei finally reacted. She turned around and shouted at him:

"Chu Yun! Stay away from me, okay? I don't want to see you now, or ever again!"

After saying that, Lin Wei turned around and strode forward, even overtaking Bai Zhou.

Ding! Detected that because of you, the Protagonist suffered 99,999 points of mental damage. Destined Villain Value +200. Villain Roulette requires 1,500 more points to unlock!

No one saw Lin Wei, her head lowered, bite down hard on her lip as a tear fell from her eyes to the ground.

"Brother Chu Yun... I'm sorry... forgive Weiwei..."

No one heard Lin Wei's inner thoughts, and likewise, no one knew that Bai Zhou was overjoyed inside.

"Bai Zhou! You bastard!!" Chu Yun suddenly let out a furious roar. "What did you do to Weiwei?! I'm going to kill you!"

Chu Yun looked almost hysterical. Clenching his fists, he charged straight at Bai Zhou's back.

The powerful aura of an SSS-Class Spirit Master instantly burst from his body!

Although Chu Yun had yet to contract a Divine Weapon Maiden, such an extraordinary talent was enough to raise his strength by a massive tier.

If he really attacked Bai Zhou, the current Bai Zhou might not be able to withstand it.

But could Chu Yun succeed?

Bai Zhou did not turn around. With his back facing Chu Yun, he raised one hand and snapped his fingers with a soft snap!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" A string of faint sounds rang out as five men in black instantly appeared behind Bai Zhou.

The five men in black released their auras on the spot!

They were all Spirit Masters above Level 10!

Chu Yun might have had an SSS-Class Talent, but he had only just awakened and was still Level 0.

It was as though he had crashed into a wall.

A muffled bang! rang out.

With a pfft!, blood sprayed from his nose and mouth as he was sent flying backward.

Ding! Detected that because of you, the Protagonist suffered 100 points of physical damage and 9,999 points of mental damage. Destined Villain Value +500. Villain Roulette requires 1,000 more points to unlock!

"Ho!"

Hearing the system prompt, Bai Zhou was absolutely thrilled!

Increasing physical damage could also raise his Villain Value?

If that was the case, what did it matter if the roulette requirement had risen to two thousand?

Hadn't it returned to where it started in an instant?

These five men in black were naturally the personal bodyguards of the Bai Family's young master.

With resources like these, why wouldn't Bai Zhou use them?

Chu Yun could only stand there blankly behind the wall of bodyguards. Even if he styled his hair like an adult, he still could not stop his childhood sweetheart from falling into his clutches!

Looking at Lin Wei, who had turned back in worry, Bai Zhou said calmly:

"You saw that, didn't you?"

Lin Wei lightly bit her lip, gave Chu Yun a deep look as he lay on the ground, then turned and left.

Bai Zhou was telling Lin Wei that crushing Chu Yun to death would truly be as easy as crushing an ant.

Of course, Bai Zhou really could directly crush Chu Yun, who was only Level 0, to death right now.

However, after the Otherworld Invasion, nations around the world had formed city-states, and they explicitly forbade Spirit Masters from killing one another.

You could duel and injure your opponent, but you could not kill them.

Otherwise, who would fight against the otherworld?

Bai Zhou was not afraid of city-state law. He simply could not be bothered dealing with unnecessary trouble.

Besides, why kill Chu Yun?

Chu Yun was currently his biggest cash cow for Destined Villain Value!

He would squeeze him dry first.

Seeing the five fierce bodyguards behind Bai Zhou, even the teachers and principal of the school did not dare utter a word.

Besides, Chu Yun possessed an ultimate SSS-Class Talent.

The students watching from afar all clicked their tongues and shook their heads.

"Just as expected! Even if Chu Yun's talent is insane, Bai Zhou is still Bai Zhou, and Chu Yun is still just Chu Yun!"

"Yeah, talent is truly worthless in the face of power and influence!"

"If it weren't for city-state law, Chu Yun would probably be dead by now, right?"

"I'm so jealous of Bai Zhou. If I had been born into a family like that, I'd definitely be even more arrogant than him!"

"Shh—how can you describe Bai Zhou's actions as arrogant? Do you have a death wish?"

"Hey? Have you noticed the direction Bai Zhou is taking Lin Wei... It seems to be the Contract Room!"

"What?! No way! Bai Zhou wants to form a contract with Lin Wei?!"

"How is that possible? Lin Wei only has an E-Class talent, and her spirit weapon is called the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear. Even though he only awakened an A-Class Spirit Master talent, he still can't contract such a useless E-Class Divine Weapon Maiden, can he?"

"Could it be... a Master-Servant Contract? Is he going to turn Lin Wei into his slave?"

"Even then, he should pick a prettier woman. Lin Wei is so skinny and small, she really is..."

"..."

The crowd discussed it as though it had nothing to do with them, but two people's expressions suddenly changed.

One of them was naturally Shen Qin, Chu Yun's ex-girlfriend.

When Chu Yun awakened his SSS-Class Talent, Shen Qin had still put on an aloof act and approached him, saying, "I'll reluctantly give you a chance to contract me."

But Chu Yun had backbone and directly rejected her. So now...

"No! The only one who can contract with Bai Zhou is me! How could it be that E-Class piece of trash?!"

With that thought, she sprinted wildly toward the Contract Room.

The other person was naturally Chu Yun. He clutched his chest and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth as the aged voice in his mind spoke up:

"Something's not right... Does that skinny little girl really only have an E-Class talent?"

"No! Her talent has been concealed. She may be a Peerless Divine Weapon! Hurry and stop them from forming a contract. That girl is your opportunity!"
