Chapter 72

Some things just have to be done by someone.

Nanjiang City.

The rain was pouring down, and it had been raining for a day and a night.

Tao Yufeng looked out the window as she cooked in the kitchen, humming a little tune, in a good mood.

"I'm back," Mo Xixi's cheerful voice rang out.

The girl kicked off her shoes, jumped onto the sofa, picked up the tablet on the table, and started watching.

Tao Yufeng looked at her, "How were today's test results?"

"We broke 6! You didn't see the expressions on the faces of the teachers and classmates. Qingqing was stunned," Mo Xixi said with a grin.

Tao Yufeng smiled. "Not bad. The medicine Xiaoyuan gave you didn't end up on the pigs."

"Of course!"

She jumped onto the sofa, stood up, put her hands on her hips, and laughed loudly, "I, Mo Xixi, am a genius girl destined to become the Demon King! Although I can't compare to Brother Yuan, I'll still have no problem sweeping through No. 1 High School and suppressing the Abyss with one hand, hahaha..."

Tao Yufeng was amused and said, "Stop joking around, go wash your hands, it's time to eat."

……

downstairs.

A hooded man stood in the pouring rain, his hands in his pockets, looking up at Mo Xixi's house, and letting out a strange laugh.

"Found it! Found it!"

"This is it..."

His name is Kapok, a follower of the Abyss, codenamed "The Otherworldly Man," who, in accordance with the will of the Abyss, seeks out the families of those geniuses, bestowing upon them blessings and assimilation.

Just as he was walking toward the elevator.

The elevator doors opened.

A blue-haired girl whose eyes were covered by black satin appeared before them.

She smiled and said, "Hello, person with a different face."

Ten seconds later.

The alien was executed.

Yan Runan wiped the blood off her hands with a handkerchief, looked up at the leaden sky, and remembered a text message Jiang Yuan had sent her before the college entrance examination.

If you can take responsibility for the safety of my family, I can agree to join Shenwu University.

It seems that after the Thunder Martial Arts Academy incident, he realized that the Abyss Cultists would come knocking on his door.

"She's even smarter than I thought," Yan Runan said with a smile.

"He knows how to utilize resources and connections, and he understands the principle of equivalent exchange. I was right about him."

He casually tossed away the blood-stained handkerchief.

Yan Runan opened her umbrella and walked into the rain, her red lips slightly pursed and upturned.

"Welcome to the university, junior Jiang Yuan."

……

Inspection Division.

Zhang Wei lit a cigarette and looked out the window.

"It's raining so hard."

Under such torrential rain, countless evils may breed in the darkness.

…………

Chongming Martial Arts School.

A brand-new, silver-white shuttle came to a stop.

Xu Yihan opened the door and was somewhat surprised to see Ji Feiyue and her group.

"President, what brings you here?"

Roy poked his head out and said with a grin, "Isn't today the last day of the college entrance exam? Everyone's here to wait for Jiang Yuan to become the top scorer."

Ji Feiyue laughed and said, "Although we can see them from across the star field, it's definitely more lively when everyone is gathered together."

Rena: "I brought beer and fried chicken from the store, let's all eat together!"

A group of people sat on the floor of the Chongming Martial Arts Hall, eating fried chicken and drinking alcohol, watching the live broadcast on the screen in front of them.

A sweet-looking female anchor sits on a flying device, hovering in the air, with a huge points leaderboard behind her.

"Hello everyone, I'm Cuttlefish. Can you guess where I am right now?"

[The squid is cute today too!]

Where am I?

[It seems to be at school...]

Aren't you going to practice martial arts with Sasha-chan today?

I really want to see women fight.

【+1】

As the comments flew by, the number of viewers in the live stream room was in the tens of thousands, with over 100,000 followers.

Mo Yu smiled at the camera and said, "Actually, I'm now at Wudao No.1 Middle School in Nanjiang City. This year, Nanjiang No.1 Middle School is undoubtedly the most watched school in Jiang Province. Please take a look."

As the camera panned around, the people in the live stream went wild.

[It really is at Nanjiang No.1 Middle School!]

[Isn't it raining there? I'm in Nanjiang too, and it's pouring rain.]

[Idiot, didn't you see the magic circle above? It blocked all the rainwater.]

I saw Liu He, the principal of No. 1 High School. He's a big shot at the seventh rank.

[So many students, weren't they eliminated? Why haven't they left yet?]

[Is that Xia Qinghou? He was eliminated too?]

As the camera panned across the podium and spotted several figures wearing badges and exuding a powerful aura, someone in the live stream exclaimed in surprise.

[Hiss...those guys look like professors from the top four accounting firms.]

I saw it too.

[Is this for recruitment purposes?]

Wait, it seems like it's not just them...

[Commander Lu of the Patrol Division, President Luo of the Pharmacist Association, the head of the Xia family, even the president of the Silver Wolf Guild are here...wow...these are all big shots who frequently appear on television.]

[Nanjiang No. 1 High School has become famous throughout the province this time, so it's not surprising that it attracted these important figures.]

If I could stand out in the college entrance exam and catch the eye of these important figures, I'd be on a meteoric rise. I'm so envious...

Looking at the comments, Cuttlefish chuckled, "Does everyone know who the most talked-about candidate is right now?"

Of course, everyone knows that.

It must be the one with the highest points.

[I think his name is Jiang Yuan.]

[This has been trending on social media for the past few days.]

What exactly is his background?

"Yes, it's him."

Squid laughed, controlling the camera to focus on the points leaderboard.

The name of Jiang Yuan, who came in first place, shone brightly and was incredibly dazzling.

"With nearly 1200 points, he surpasses the top genius of Beijiang City with SS-level talent and Xia Qinghou, the number one genius of Nanjiang City. It can be said that he is unprecedented and will never be surpassed again."

"He emerged out of nowhere just over ten days before the college entrance examination, and as a dark horse, he remained so until the end. If there are no surprises, he should be the champion of martial arts in Jiang Province this year."

"and……"

The squid winked at the camera and whispered:

"According to my inside information, Qin Nansun, who is known as the pride of the Qin family, was eliminated by him."

As he spoke, he also gave Qin Nansun a shot from a distance.

He sat there, head down, completely listless, as if shrouded in an invisible shadow.

The live stream chat was filled with rapidly scrolling comments.

[Hiss... Is this Qin Luoshui's grandson from the Sword Sect?]

Wasn't he incredibly arrogant before? How come he's acting like a complete loser now?

Looks like that was quite a blow.

I think it's more like his sword heart has shattered.

Just how terrifying is Jiang Yuan to have turned him into this...?

"I'm sure everyone is curious about who this candidate named Jiang Yuan is and what he looks like. With the college entrance exam just around the corner, tune in to Moyu's live stream, and Moyu will reveal the true face of this top scorer in Jiang Province," Moyu said slyly.

As the number of viewers in Moyu's live stream continues to rise.

The vice-principal glanced at her and said to Liu He beside him, "Principal, is it alright as long as we don't worry about it?"

Liu He glanced at her. "Oh, that girl. She's my niece. Do you think she'll be alright?"

Vice Principal: "..."

Never mind if I didn't ask.

……

"I didn't expect you to be here too." A beautiful middle-aged woman, Luo Ningyan, dressed in a turquoise robe, exuding elegance and captivating figure, glanced at the aloof middle-aged man beside her and chuckled, "What, is the Inspection Division also trying to win over this year's top scholar?"

"Is that not allowed?"

Lu Beili said calmly.

He decided to come and see after hearing Zhang Wei's description.

"Everyone knows that the Patrol Division is busy with little resources, offers no freedom, and is dangerous. If it were my daughter, I would never let her join the Patrol Division," Luo Ningyan said, her arms crossed, her chest protruding.

Lu Beili was silent for a few seconds, then calmly said, "Some things just have to be done by someone."
