Chapter 14: Number One

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was very lively outside the Lightning Gobzan dungeon as many students had already left the dungeon. Most of them had tattered clothes and dark scars on their faces. They looked like beggars.

Even Yang Wei and the other two were in a very sorry state. Only Li Feng was completely fine and looked relaxed. He was no different from before they entered the dungeon. It was as if he had been strolling around inside. Thus, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.

“Li Feng didn’t find a place to hide and play games after entering, right?” Someone asked with a smile.

Xu Luo, who was in Jiang Sheng’s team, said disdainfully, “You guys are really right. Many people saw Yang Wei and the other two fighting with Elementary-Grade battle armor while Li Feng hid behind and played games.”

Lin Ling’er didn’t say anything.. Her expression was indifferent, but she also looked at Li Feng with disappointment. This youth really couldn’t take the blow from before.

When everyone heard that, they were all amused. Li Feng was still in his usual style!

Upon hearing the surrounding comments, Zhou Zhengyang, who knew that Li Feng’s performance in the instance dungeon was extremely poor, couldn’t help but frown. He sighed in his heart and said, “Why would a perfectly fine child become obsessed with games? The Great Xia Kingdom should actively deal with these bad habits. It’s enough to just read novels for entertainment.”

Li Feng looked up at them and ignored them. Instead, he said to Yang Wei and the other two, “You guys go and hand over the Energy Stones. I’ll go back to the bus and play games.”

After saying that, he left. Now that he had created a new Assassin character, he had to level up first. He was somewhat looking forward to seeing what skills would appear after Level 10.

Furthermore, Li Feng was worried about a problem. There were only three skill slots at the Primary Rank, but there was only one empty spot left now. Thus, he had to choose carefully.

As for the rankings for the Summer Dungeon Hunt, to Li Feng, it was just something he did casually. He just wanted to see the real dungeons in the real world.

However, Li Feng’s actions made everyone shake their heads.

Only Yang Wei and the other two sneered and looked at the crowd as if they were looking at idiots. However, Yang Wei and the other two also had their own selfish motives. They hid their intentions and did not say anything about Li Feng. If they really exposed Li Feng’s strength, it would become difficult for them to team up with Li Feng in the future.

As for the thought that they would be fools if they formed a team with Li Feng again, it was laughable. As long as Big Boss could bring them to great heights, so what if he was a boot-licker?

“Everyone, come over here and tabulate the Energy Stones in your hands.” Zhou Zhengyang looked at the students who had just exited the dungeon and spoke.

No one moved. Instead, they all looked at Jiang Sheng’s team. Jiang Sheng’s team was publicly recognized as the first place in the cohort.

Everyone wanted to see how many Energy Stones they had gathered.

Jiang Sheng smiled confidently. Even if his sportswear was torn, it could not hide his handsome face. He walked in large strides to Teacher Zhou and handed him the Energy Stones he had obtained from this dungeon.

“Hmm, there are a total of 128 Energy Stones. Ten of them belong to evolved Goblins, and 118 of them belong to ordinary Goblins.”

Zhou Zhengyang nodded in satisfaction. This result was considered very good. He looked at Jiang Sheng and said, “I didn’t expect you guys to be able to kill ten evolved Goblins. Amongst the Primary-Rank players, you guys are considered very powerful.”

“This is too sick. It’s difficult for us to deal with three evolved Goblins.” Many students looked at Jiang Sheng with admiration.

After Jiang Sheng’s team took the lead, students handed over their Energy Stones one after another. Most of the teams only killed two or three evolved Goblins.

Some outstanding teams had only killed four or five evolved Goblins, but this still shocked many people.

Soon, it was time for Yang Wei and the other two to hand over their Energy Stones.

“These…” Zhou Zhengyang’s expression froze as he held the several hundred Energy Stones and looked at Yang Wei and the others. Then, he took a deep breath and said, “There are 18 Energy Stones from evolved Goblins. Are you sure that you killed them?”

“How is that possible?” The surrounding students also looked over with shocked expressions.

Jiang Sheng’s confident expression gradually turned into a stunned expression. They were already in great danger from hunting ten evolved Goblins, but Yang Wei and the other two had actually killed 18 evolved Goblins.

Suddenly, a classmate said angrily, “It must be because of the Elementary-Grade battle armor. That thing should not have appeared in a Primary-Rank dungeon.”

Upon hearing this, many people were enlightened as they cursed, “This is cheating. This is a conspiracy. Those tycoons are too detestable. They’re inferior to us in strength, but they actually used money to win.”

“The world is getting worse by the day. There’s actually such a thing. The world is too dark. If I had a set of Elementary-Grade battle armor, I could also kill 18 evolutionary Goblins.”

Many students had ugly expressions. It should be known that Yang Wei’s team was formed by the last three people in the cohort. If they were to get first place, how many people would be slapped in the face?

However, Yang Wei did not care about them and said with a cold smile, “If you guys are unhappy, you can also purchase a set of Elementary-Grade battle armor. You bunch of poor people also want to snatch first place from us.”

“That’s right. This is called the reasonable use of resources. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame your dad for not working hard. Of course, if you guys work harder, you might be able to make your son a rich second-generation heir,” said Sheng Xu with a venomous tone.

Meanwhile, Qin Anran simply rolled her eyes. Was she implicated in this matter as well? If she had known earlier, she would have run off with Li Feng.

“Son of a bitch, why do I want to beat these two up so badly?” Many students clenched their fists as the crowd surged with emotions.

When Zhou Zhengyang saw this scene, he frowned. If this continued, something major would happen. Thus, he hurriedly said, “Alright, alright. The results of this competition are that Yang Wei’s team is number one. Although they relied on their equipment, we can’t deny that they are powerful.”

“Sigh, I keep feeling that this isn’t a good thing! Will such a strange combination cause a negative effect on our school?” A teacher beside him asked.

“That’s right, that’s right. Should we change the rules? Jiang Sheng’s team will be first and Yang Wei’s team will be second. This will solve the problem. Otherwise, these students won’t be convinced.” Jiang Sheng’s teacher also chimed in.

“I think that’s good. Let them face the dangers of society head-on so that they don’t overestimate themselves after leaving school.”

How could the rules be changed just like that? Zhou Zhengyang’s expression changed slightly. He was about to speak when a voice suddenly sounded.

An old man with a white beard had appeared in the middle of them at some point. He looked at the surrounding students with a peaceful gaze, but he didn’t see Li Feng. Thus, he casually said, “By the way, where’s that Internet-addicted youth?”

“Ah, Principal Ye, why are you here?” Zhou Zhengyang was elated. Since Principal Ye had spoken, this matter was settled. Then, he asked carefully, “Are you talking about Li Feng?”

The few teachers beside him frowned and did not speak. However, Principal Ye was still very authoritative. Thus, no one said anything else about changing the rules.

“Forget it, I just came to take a look.” Ye Buzhou ignored them and left, as if he had really come to take a look.
