Chapter 108: The Immortal Ruins Civilization
Chapter 108: The Immortal Ruins Civilization
President Li knew that Li Yuan possessed exceptional skill.
His expectations for Li Yuan were also high.
In April, Li Yuan's score on the Starfield Combat Network surpassed Yinxing by 300 points, which was solid proof.
However, there was a slight difference between the matches on the Kunlun Jiu Shan and the Starfield Combat Network.
The matchups on the Starfield Combat Network were, to some extent, influenced by luck. Therefore, when the scores were close, it didn't necessarily mean that the lower-scoring party had inferior skills.
But on Kunlun Jiu Shan? It was more like an advancement tournament on the Starfield Combat Network.
The strong were truly strong, and the weak were truly weak.
Usually, a slightly larger score gap represented a significant skill disparity.
And Li Yuan had directly broken into the Fifth Mountain?
"1300 points, representing the breakthrough into the Fifth Mountain, and he even killed three guardians of the mountain, surpassing Yan Jing," President Li marveled to himself. "His age is among the youngest in this batch of freshmen."
The youngest, yet the most accomplished?
After some contemplation, President Li reached out and tapped the light screen, and Li Yuan's battle in the Fifth Mountain appeared on the screen.
As the vice president, he had the authority to observe the battles of the students from his college up to the Seventh Mountain.
After watching the battle several times, he was astonished.
Every time, Li Yuan burst forth with terrifying spear rays, instantly killing a Star Realm creature.
"Dawn Piercing Cloud? The third form of Starlight Gun Technique?" President Li finally confirmed, growing more surprised.
The Starlight Gun Technique was a highly renowned second-tier spear technique manual with a great reputation.
President Li had also studied and practiced it for a period, so he was very familiar with it.
"Even the third form can be executed perfectly. If he continues to cultivate like this, in a few months, he will be able to reach the threshold of the advanced fourth-stage spear technique." President Li muttered to himself.
Logically, the improvement of skill became more challenging the further one progressed.
It was even normal to reach a bottleneck and be stuck at a certain realm for ten or twenty years, or even a lifetime, unable to break through. This was also the reason why Origin Martial Artists were scarce.
"But Li Yuan's spear technique..."
"If we look at the long-term trend, his progress has been accelerating since high school, and the speed of improvement becomes more exaggerated the further he goes." President Li was amazed. "After entering the fourth stage, there's not even a hint of slowing down."
This was indeed an incredible feat.
"It should be related to the continuous strengthening of his spirit power, but more importantly, his innate talent for spear techniques is gradually revealing itself." President Li made a guess.
"Perhaps!"
"We can advance the plan and let him participate in the Global University Martial Arts Tournament a year early." President Li thought to himself. "At least, by next February, he should be eligible to compete in the virtual tournament."
"After he officially enrolls tomorrow, I'll have a chat with him."
After figuring everything out, President Li suddenly smiled, "Hehe, I did pick up a treasure."
"With Li Yuan here, we don't have to worry too much about the team competition for the next few years."
"Probably."
"The other old ghosts are probably cursing me." President Li chuckled.
Cursing? He didn't care at all!
On the contrary, President Li was quite proud at the moment.
...
The Evergreen Building was the exclusive building for the students and teachers of the Eighth Academy. On the tenth floor, an office was filled with arguments.
"Get out!"
Zhao Instructor, with his sturdy build, scoffed, "Blame me for not signing Li Yuan?"
"Old Zhao, we're not blaming you," said the tall, black-cloaked woman, frowning. "It's just a pity that you were the first to contact him, but Old Li snatched him away."
"If we could sign Li Yuan, our 'guidance points' would increase significantly."
"Yes!"
"Such a talented seedling, if we say that we lost to the Sixth Academy in the competition, we would accept it." Another plump, elderly man shook his head. "But we didn't even get a chance to compete, and it's hard to accept the defeat."
"Hmph!"
"What's the point of being unwilling?" Zhao Instructor coldly laughed. "Anyway, Li Yuan has already signed with the Sixth Academy. You can do whatever you want."
He spread his hands, crossed his legs, and looked up at the sky.
The black-cloaked woman and the plump, elderly man exchanged glances, both feeling helpless.
They were the three vice presidents of the Eighth Academy.
The teachers at Kunlun Martial University were categorized as regular teachers, vice presidents, presidents, vice-principals, and principals.
There were hundreds of regular teachers in the entire university, all of whom were at least 2nd-tier Origin Martial Artists. They often taught students from multiple academies simultaneously.
Vice presidents and presidents were specifically assigned to their respective academies.
The students' performance was closely tied to the 'guidance points' they received.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore."
"In the end, it's just a young kid. No matter how talented he is, it won't affect us much. Since we've missed the opportunity, there's no point in regretting it." The black-cloaked woman shook her head. "Zhao Instructor, I plan to make another trip to the Kunlun Star Realm to hunt the Thundercloud Dragon. Are you willing to come along?"
"Hunt the Thundercloud Dragon? The one in the Mo Yan Mountains," Zhao Instructor, who had been lounging in his chair, suddenly sat up.
"Yes," the black-cloaked woman nodded.
Zhao Instructor glanced at the black-cloaked woman and frowned. "Just the two of us? Are we looking for trouble?"
"I've invited Koria from Europa."
The black-cloaked woman smiled. "He will also bring two 29th-level Origin Martial Artists."
"Five 29th-level Origin Martial Artists, including Koria?" Zhao Instructor narrowed his eyes. "Give me some time to consider."
"The Kunlun Star Realm is full of dangers. The Immortal Ruins Civilization is incredibly powerful, one of the highest-level alien civilizations known to human civilization, and it has always been under their control."
"Even if we disguise ourselves, it's easy to run into trouble. Hunting a second-tier perfect Thundercloud Dragon is not an easy task." Zhao Instructor nodded and then shook his head, as if weighing his options.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes. "Let's do it, but I need to invite Fifth Senior Brother. With six of us working together, it will be more secure, and we can prevent Koria from cheating."
"Okay."
"As you know, I only want the Thundercloud Dragon Spine. The rest of the spoils are yours to divide." The black-cloaked woman said.
Zhao Instructor looked at the black-cloaked woman and frowned. "With the two of us? Are we asking for trouble?"
"First!"
"Senior Brother, you're amazing!" The freshmen were indeed thrilled.
It was common knowledge that most freshmen would report to school on their first or second day.
Whether for glory or rewards, the students of the Eight Academies would secretly compete with each other.
The school's teachers also encouraged this competition.
By this afternoon, most of the freshmen from the other academies had given up; the gap was too difficult to bridge.
Unexpectedly, in the last half of the day, the situation took a dramatic turn, and Li Yuan single-handedly secured the top spot.
A cliffhanger-like lead.
In just one battle, Li Yuan's prestige among the Sixth Academy freshmen skyrocketed to an astonishing level.
"He's too strong."
"He alone is worth thirty of us."
"Thirty? I think he could take on a hundred of us." Freshmen from the Third and Seventh Academies felt helpless.
The top-ranked academy would reward each freshman with 20,000 Blue Planet Coins.
The second-ranked academy would give each student 10,000 Blue Planet Coins.
The subsequent academies would not receive any group rewards.
Of course, there would be individual rewards for the top 100 students.
Who would have thought that among the hundreds of freshmen from the Six Academies, a monster like Li Yuan would suddenly emerge?
Regardless, after this battle, Li Yuan's fame had surpassed that of Wu Luo and Yang Hong, quietly becoming the top freshman at Kunlun Martial University.
Most importantly, it was Li Yuan's creation of the admission competition record, becoming the new historical first.
It was foreseeable that with the passage of time, today's battle would quickly become known to all the seniors in the school.
"Is he stronger than Senior Brother Jin?"
"Hard to say."
"His physical qualities are definitely not as good, but his skills are excellent. It wouldn't be surprising if he catches up to Senior Brother Jin by the time he's a sophomore or junior." The seniors in the arena discussed.
They had quickly elevated Li Yuan to the same level as Jin Huguo.
...
It was past nine in the evening.
Li Yuan finally bid farewell to the other Sixth Academy freshmen and followed Gu Qianghan and An Nong back to the villa area.
Outside Villa 61032.
"Senior Brother, I'll take my leave first." Gu Qianghan waved to Li Yuan and smiled, "I'll organize everyone, and we'll vote for the new Senior Brother tomorrow. There won't be any discordant voices."
"I think we should still respect everyone's wishes." Li Yuan smiled.
Immediately, An Nong left.
"Senior Brother, I'm here for you." Gu Qianghan smiled at Li Yuan.
"Gu Qiang, you can still call me Yuan." Li Yuan sighed, "Today, you took the lead, and the situation got so big."
"What's the big deal?"
"A small scuffle." Gu Qianghan shook his head, "I'm doing this for your benefit. As the Senior Brother, you'll get an additional 100,000 Blue Planet Coins every six months."
"Not a small amount, but it adds up." Gu Qianghan said, "There will also be some hidden benefits."
"100,000 Blue Planet Coins?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised.
That's quite a lot.
After all, it's just a title.
"I'm not used to calling you Senior Brother."
"How about this, I'll treat you like a high school classmate, and I'll take a small loss. I'll call you Brother Yuan." Gu Qianghan pretended to be at a great disadvantage, "Even though you're younger than me, I can accept it since you're stronger."
"Okay." Li Yuan smiled and didn't insist further.
He understood Gu Qianghan's personality.
"In the Xuanwu Tower, you've completed the identity verification."
"Later, set up the facial and fingerprint dual authentication." Gu Qianghan pointed to the villa behind Li Yuan, "All the functions of the villa can be added to the smart ring."
"The overall framework is similar to the villas in the Starfire Nanhu Neighborhood..." Gu Qianghan explained in detail.
"Okay, got it." Li Yuan had just arrived at the school and was taken to the Xuanwu Tower.
He didn't quite understand many things.
After Gu Qianghan's detailed introduction, Li Yuan indeed became much clearer.
"Alright, call me if you need anything." Gu Qianghan waved, and his residence was nearby.
Li Yuan watched him leave.
...
Entering the villa, Li Yuan quickly set up everything in each room according to his preferences, following Gu Qianghan's instructions and various explanations.
Fortunately, in this smart era, everything was convenient.
It was past ten in the evening.
He made a video call to his uncle and aunt.
"Don't worry."
"Everything's fine at Kunlun Martial University." Li Yuan assured them, "Uncle and Aunt, look, I live in a private villa."
When you're away from home, you have to say good things to make your elders feel at ease.
He ended the video call.
"Past ten?" Li Yuan looked up at the starry sky, "In Jiangcheng, the haze and light pollution are severe, making it hard to see the stars."
"Kunlun University is actually in the suburbs, and the air quality is excellent."
"That's good."
"From now on, at 3 AM, I'll be seeing the stars from Kunlun University." Li Yuan smiled.
He headed towards the underground martial arts studio, beginning his cultivation for the day.
Li Yuan didn't care about being first among the freshmen at Kunlun Martial University. He didn't consider it an honor.
Among his peers across the country, fewer than a hundred could achieve mind-body integration.
The vast majority of them went to the top three elite martial arts schools.
The remaining few, like Wu Luo and Yang Hong, were mostly at the initial stage of the fourth level.
What about Li Yuan? In March, his spear technique and Tian Dazhuang's broadsword technique were far inferior.
But in the past four months, Li Yuan had undergone two mental transformations, and his spear technique had improved to a terrifying level.
It was no longer necessarily weaker than Tian Dazhuang.
In this situation, if he couldn't secure the top spot among the freshmen at Kunlun Martial University with a significant advantage, that would be strange.
"My opponent has never been the freshmen at Kunlun Martial University."
"But the top geniuses from the top three elite martial arts schools."
"And perhaps, the top geniuses from the seven major planets of human civilization." Li Yuan's heart was filled with longing.
Huff! Li Yuan calmed his mind and began his cultivation on his first day at Kunlun Martial University.
