Chapter 110: Humiliating the Previous Year’s Top Student (Requesting Monthly Vote)
“Beep!”
The office door slid open. Three figures stood in the room, their eyes fixed on a man who faced away from them, standing before a lavishly decorated desk.
He wore a white casual suit, his towering frame nearing two meters tall. Broad shoulders and muscular arms hinted at his raw power. A crushing aura radiated from him like a storm.
Slowly, he turned. His sharp, handsome face came into view as he tilted his chin upward, smirking arrogantly. Instantly, his oppressive presence surged like a tidal wave.
“Hello, juniors!” he greeted, his voice laced with the ferocity of a ferocious wolf. His aura roared outward, whipping the air into a frenzy.
Li Lang’s lips curled. As a senior, he’d come to teach these underclassmen a lesson—and leave a lasting impression. The anticipation of their shocked faces thrilled him.
The pressure bore down like invisible blades, making Jiang Tao and Li Zhou’s faces pale.
“He’s so strong!” Jiang Tao gritted his teeth.
Only Lin Qi remained unfazed.
Suddenly, his eyes gleamed like gold as his own aura erupted violently. The Golden Vajra Tiger within him awakened, responding to the challenge with a deafening roar.
The air vibrated as Jiang Tao and Li Zhou felt razor-sharp slashes tear across their skin.
Li Zhou’s expression darkened. Why is his aura so terrifying?
Jiang Tao silently fumed, Is this the power of breaking into the Second Realm? Why don’t I feel the same?
Li Lang, however, felt his aura shattered like glass. The force slammed back on him, crushing his pride.
Impossible! he thought. I’m the former top-ranked student—my Vital Energy Stat exceeds 20! How can I lose to a junior?
“Enough!”
Jiang Zhiguang stepped in, halting the invisible clash.
“This is Li Lang, your senior and last year’s top student.” He gestured to the three. “Lin Qi, Li Zhou, Jiang Tao—the current top three.”
Jiang Zhiguang studied Lin Qi, amazed. This kid actually overpowered Li Lang? They’re a year apart, with a massive gap in stats. Unbelievable.
Li Lang exhaled, lowering his head. The cocky smile vanished as he extended his hand. “Juniors, nice to meet you.”
Lin Qi’s lips quirked. He shook the offered hand.
The five sat as Jiang Zhiguang brewed tea.
“Juniors, you’re far stronger than I was at your stage,” Li Lang said, his tone warm but tinged with regret.
Lin Qi glanced at him. If he recalled, Li Lang hadn’t ranked in the city’s top 20—falling short of Yu Jing and Qi Yuelin. Despite an extra year of training, he was weaker than expected.
“Li Lang’s here to share experiences,” Jiang Zhiguang explained.
“Tell us about Azure Firmament University!” Jiang Tao blurted.
“Me too!” Li Zhou chimed in.
Lin Qi leaned back on the sofa, adding, “Curious about it as well.”
Li Lang straightened, his smile bitter.
“Azure Firmament University is Xia Kingdom’s top-ranked martial arts academy. Only true geniuses, those with unparalleled innate talent, make the cut. I was first in my high school, but at the university, there are at least a hundred stronger than me. Everyone’s a hair’s breadth apart in strength.”
He chuckled grimly. “They say if you throw a brick at a classroom here, you’ll hit several top-ten city rankers. Someone like me, not even in the top twenty statewide, is nothing. The competition is relentless. Slack off, and you’ll get left behind. I’ve seen peers collapse under the pressure, broken beyond recovery.”
His voice thickened. “The university’s a new beginning—and an even fiercer battlefield. I regret not pushing harder during senior year. One misstep, and you’re doomed to lag forever, starved of resources.”
As he spoke, Jiang Tao and Li Zhou frowned, the weight of his words sinking in.
Lin Qi remained expressionless. So even after entering university, the fight intensifies. Perfect. He welcomed the challenge.
Li Lang, once arrogant, now sat humbled, his demeanor as meek as a puppy.
Jiang Zhiguang, watching, shook his head. Who knew the top-ranked Li Lang would struggle so much in university?
Minutes later, Li Lang offered, “Lin Qi, add me on Wechat. Ask anything—my family has connections in Tianhai City.”
“Sure,” Lin Qi agreed, pocketing his phone. More connections meant more opportunities.
After parting ways, Li Lang drove off, his mood lifted.
This visit was worth it, he mused. Lin Qi’s future is limitless. Cultivating his favor now could pay off immensely.
“Looking forward to seeing you at Azure Firmament University in July,” he murmured, smiling.

That afternoon, in the martial arts classroom, Zhang Cheng in his black uniform scanned the room.
“Winter break is over. I don’t know how much you’ve improved, but your stats and martial arts won’t lie. The National College Entrance Exam is 109 days away—your last chance. Push through the pain. Three months, and it’ll be over.”
The students exchanged grim looks. Time had slipped away faster than they realized.
After dispersing, Lin Qi returned to his training hall. The air felt thin, the primordial energy scarce—a setback for cultivating the Golden Vajra Tiger Evolution Method. He resolved to move his training to the Martial Arts Pavilion.
He calculated mentally: 109 days left. Li Lang’s right—university’s brutal. The stronger I arrive, the better.
First, he’d break into the province’s top ten in a month to claim Yue Feng’s reward—preferably cash—for new spear techniques. Next, upgrade his contract to S-Rank for more resources. Build a positive cycle: power, rewards, growth.
He exhaled sharply. Clarity settled. Now, it was time to act.
