“According to the latest reports, Linhai City in Cang Province is about to face a new typhoon.”
“Citizens are reminded to monitor weather updates and take preventive measures in advance.”
“The military has announced that a Disaster Beast surge has erupted in Cang Province’s maritime zone. A massive spatial gate has opened, affecting nearby cities and potentially escalating the Disaster Beast crisis.”
“We’re currently at Bay Island in Cang Province’s waters. Let’s take a look at the live situation…”
At this moment, during a class break in the Second High School Elite Class:
Someone turned on the projector, displaying a news channel that immediately drew many eyes.
The footage showed coastal areas battered by relentless storms. Beyond the rain, the sea stretched endlessly, churning with monstrous waves. Countless dark shadows surged from the depths.
These were colossal, grotesque Disaster Beasts—gigantic claws, razor-sharp teeth, bloodshot eyes radiating slaughter. They charged ashore fearlessly, as if spotting prey.
At the video’s edge loomed a massive black ring, glowing with terrifying light. Endless Disaster Beasts poured through, flooding the ocean and land alike.
“That’s a spatial gate—it’s too huge! Disaster Beasts descend upon our world through these gates,” someone exclaimed, though everyone already knew. Endless shadows surged with the storm, a scene like the apocalypse.
Boom!!
Crash!!
Suddenly, deafening explosions roared, like gunpowder detonating. Colored beams rained down like arrows.
Towering steel war machines, stretching for dozens of kilometers like an iron Great Wall, formed the defense line. On their peaks, massive cold-barreled cannons targeted the ocean, unleashing fatal barrages.
Flames roared without pause, spewing fury. Lasers, missiles, armor-piercing rounds—science fiction’s arsenal materialized.
Struck Disaster Beasts exploded into blood, mushroom clouds blooming crimson and gold. Corpses piled into mountains, yet more surged forward.
Roar~~
A forty-meter-long shark-like Disaster Beast leapt from the waves. Its jet-black skin bore rows of gaping maws, teeth gleaming like daggers. Red eyes burned with malice.
“That’s a level-seven Disaster Beast—the Ghostfang Colossal Shark!”
“Too big!”
Students gasped.
Peng Peng!!
Boom!!
Lasers and missiles bombarded the beast like mercury, yet barely scratched it. The shark thrashed, creating tidal waves, roaring mockingly.
Suddenly, a colossal blue blade slashed from the distance, cleaving the sky with lightning speed.
Roar~
The blade’s strike erupted in a bloodbath, blood cascading like a waterfall. A gaping wound tore open the shark’s body.
In the sky, a figure grew larger—a muscular man wielding a blade. Clad in red armor, he hovered, surrounded by blue light like a war god.
“It’s Yue Feng, deputy master of Tianhai City’s Crimson Vault Martial Arts Pavilion!”
“A Seventh Realm martial artist!”
“He used his signature technique—the Slaughter Whale Tyrant Blade!”
Someone recognized him. Murmurs erupted, eyes alight.
Lin Qi watched, equally enthralled, as Yue Feng executed three slashes mid-air, cleaving the Ghostfang Colossal Shark.
“Awesome!”
The news ended with Yue Feng’s victory, the class erupting in cheers.
“I’ll become as strong as Yue Feng, dominating the battlefield!”
“Slaying Disaster Beasts like cutting melons!”
Hearts raced. “The Slaughter Whale Tyrant Blade is so cool! I’ll learn that technique someday!”
Eyes gleamed with longing. These elite geniuses dreamed of greatness.
Jiang Tao clenched his fist. “Bro Qi, Master Yue’s incredible! Maybe we’ll join the Crimson Vault one day!”
Lin Qi nodded. Such news always stirred awe for top martial artists.
“There’ll be chances!”
He stood, heading out. “Where to, Bro Qi?”
“The head teacher summoned me!”
Meanwhile, Chen Zichuan rose, joining him at the office.
“Check the card number, sign if no errors,” Yan Hong said bluntly, handing them forms. They reviewed and signed.
“Funds will arrive within an hour,” Yan Hong said. “Use this money for resources. Your talent deserves higher rankings.”
“Pity the school’s Second-Class Genius Loan application failed.”
“No worries—I’m happy with third-class,” Lin Qi shrugged.
Chen Zichuan added, “Thank you, Teacher!”
“If you rank in the top thirty during the monthly exam, you might secure the Second-Class Genius Loan.”
Lin Qi’s heart stirred. Third-class was 200,000 Xia Kingdom Currency, second-class 500,000—a 300,000 difference. That sum could greatly boost his martial cultivation.
Leaving the office, his phone buzzed.
[Icbc card ending in xxx received 200,000 on September 16 at 10:05 AM. Balance: 200,432 Xia Kingdom Currency.]
Lin Qi smiled. The 200,000 loan had arrived. Now he could buy advanced resources he’d never used before.
Chen Zichuan, checking his phone too, nodded. “Chen Zichuan, let’s push forward!”
“Top thirty for the second-class loan!” Lin Qi encouraged, reentering class.
Chen Zichuan hesitated. They’d barely spoken, yet Lin Qi’s words ignited his resolve. Entering the top thirty was tough—but with 200,000, it was possible.

After lunch, in the Martial Arts Training Hall:
“Bro Qi, you’re eating two nutritional meals now. And you’ve gotten even bulkier!”
Changing into training gear, Jiang Tao eyed Lin Qi’s physique.
“I’m not even 18 yet. My body’s still growing. I was just malnourished before,” Lin Qi replied, studying his reflection. He’d passed 1.8 meters tall. His arms and shoulders broadened, his frame thickening.
Checking his Status Panel:
Name: Lin Qi (17)
Template: Erlang Shen Yang Jian
Fusion Rate: 4%
Daily progress showed. His martial arts—Harmony Stance, Tiger Form Fist, Mountain-Shattering Spear Method—improved with each 1% Fusion Rate increase. His innate talent grew, but at a cost: more nutrients, more supplements.
“Last batch of resources is almost gone. Good thing the 200,000 came through,” Lin Qi mused. He’d need more soon.
