Chapter 44
On the day of the college entrance examination, students returned to school and expressed
The next few days.
Xu Yihan went down into the abyss with Ji Feiyue and her group, while Jiang Yuan trained his body and mind alone at the martial arts school to prepare for the college entrance examination.
More than a dozen bizarre massacres and attacks by martial arts practitioners have occurred in Nanjiang City, causing widespread panic. The Martial Arts Association and the Patrol Department issued a statement saying that the cause has been found and the problem will be resolved soon, and asked the public to rest assured.
Jiang Yuan remembered what happened that night and felt a little uneasy, so he sent a message to his aunt's family, telling them to be careful and try not to go out at night.
"We understand. Be careful living alone outside. Don't provoke others and try to avoid fighting," Tao Yufeng replied, indicating that she already knew about Jiang Yuan's fight with Liang Cheng.
soon.
Time flies, and the eve of the college entrance examination has arrived.
"boom!"
A loud bang.
The combat capability test aircraft shook violently, emitted white smoke, and the numbers fluctuated wildly before finally freezing.
150392!
"The base damage under the Ripple skill has finally broken 150,000."
A smile appeared on Jiang Yuan's face.
"In terms of single-target damage, it is comparable to that of a typical third-tier advanced martial artist."
"Jiang Yuan, Sister Feiyue said your bone spear has been forged and traded to the guild warehouse so you can see it for yourself. She also sent you some things."
A pleasant female voice came from outside.
Xu Yihan, who had returned from the abyss, walked in wearing a plain white training uniform and carrying a package.
She gained a lot from this trip to the abyss. After overcoming her inner conflict, her marksmanship finally reached a high level, and she also reached the third tier.
Clang.
Upon seeing the numbers on the combat power testing machine, the package in her hand fell to the ground.
Jiang Yuan opened the guild warehouse and saw the bone spear inside. He took it out and examined it.
The originally snow-white and monotonous bone spear was stained with a touch of dark gold, and its weight, hardness, and sharpness all increased several levels.
View information.
[Dark Gold Bone Spear (Common Excellent): Attack +10%, Attack Speed +10%, Critical Strike Chance +5%, with additional damage reduction, spell break, and rip effects; 100% durability]
Even among ordinary top-tier equipment, these are considered top-tier attributes.
"That's really good."
Jiang Yuan said happily, and added it to his system inventory.
"What is this?"
He walked over and curiously picked up the package.
Xu Yihan then came to her senses and said, "It must be the clothes she bought for you. Open them and take a look."
Jiang Yuan opened the package and found several sets of clothes. The fabrics were top-quality, the brands were high-end, and the clothes were embroidered with a blood-red rose logo. They were clearly custom-made.
These are all custom-made by "high-end tailors" who have transitioned to a lifestyle profession. Besides being comfortable, flattering, and aesthetically pleasing, they also feature dust-repellent and self-repairing properties. Each piece costs over 100,000.
"Sister Feiyue said that what you're wearing isn't high-end enough, so she had a few custom-made for you to wear when you take the college entrance exam," Xu Yihan said with a smile.
"It feels like I've become a gigolo being kept by a rich woman..." Jiang Yuan said with a wry smile.
"That pretty boy can't deal 150,000 damage." Xu Yihan looked at the combat power testing machine, her face showing an expression of not knowing what to say.
"I thought I could relax a bit after reaching the third tier... but I didn't expect you to catch up with me so quickly."
Her damage output without using skills is only around 200,000.
Jiang Yuan is currently at LV9. Once he reaches LV10, he will gain a professional skill at both the first and second tiers, resulting in a significant boost.
At that time.
I'm afraid I'll have to give up my position as the team's main attacker.
……
The next day.
On the day of the college entrance examination.
Jiang Yuan returned to the school and came to the playground. He saw that the students were dressed in all sorts of different clothes, some wearing warrior armor and carrying greatswords.
Some wore mage robes and hats, carrying staffs; others carried spears or bows and arrows, dressed like elves.
They're decked out in every piece of equipment imaginable.
"Can't I just put it in my backpack?" Jiang Yuan thought to himself, speechless.
He was still wearing the black and white school uniform from No. 1 Middle School, simple and plain.
The clothes Ji Feiyue sent were nice, but they were too eye-catching.
Especially a custom-made black trench coat with a blood-red rose logo; wearing it made him look like an executive officer—it was just too eye-catching.
"who is he?"
"From Class S?"
"You don't recognize him? Jiang Yuan from Class 3, the one who beat Liang Cheng."
"It's him! No wonder he looked terrifyingly strong..."
"He's so handsome!"
"Hiss... So it was him, the class heartthrob of Class 3. But I remember he only awakened an E-level talent."
"You believe that? You must be hiding your talent..."
Students in the distance glanced sideways and whispered among themselves as they looked at Jiang Yuan.
He stood in the center of the field, his face still bearing a hint of youthful innocence, handsome and fair-skinned, with a tall and slender figure, his golden eyes sharp and majestic, and his indifferent expression revealing an invisible pressure and surging aura that made people dare not approach.
Even in school uniforms, they resemble the blazing sun in the sky, radiating a dazzling light that cannot be ignored.
Some of Jiang Yuan's classmates also saw him, but they didn't dare to go up and say hello.
"That's... Jiang Yuan?"
"Hiss... How come he's changed so much?"
"I heard he's already a first-tier martial artist."
"No wonder just looking at them terrifies me; it's like seeing those monsters from Class S..."
Their eyes were filled with awe and worship.
Wearing full soldier's gear, Huang Yi hunched over in a corner, not daring to even glance at Jiang Yuan, who was surrounded by admirers.
He's only at level 5 now, while Jiang Yuan, whom he once mocked and looked down on, has already become a first-level martial artist and even defeated Liang Cheng, who was incredibly powerful in his eyes. He doesn't even have the right to look up to Jiang Yuan now.
Those female classmates who used to look down on Jiang Yuan and said that his E-level talent was not even worth mentioning are now filled with regret.
Handsome, strong, from an ordinary background, and hardworking!
This is simply a stock with top-tier potential!
Even if we couldn't be girlfriends, if I had shown him some kindness back then, we could have been friends. Who knows, he might have become some big shot in the future, and a single word from him could have changed my life.
But now... he has ruined the friendship with his classmates, and he doesn't even have the chance to get closer to them anymore.
The thought of this made them feel a pang of sadness.
