I conquered the cultivation world with scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"What's going on?"

"I've only taken two steps into the mountains and I already feel an oppressive gravity. Seriously? I've heard about how tough our university's military training is, but does it really have to be this brutal from the very beginning, in this desolate wilderness?"

Zhong Liyu was panting, but she wasn't crushed to the ground by the gravity; she could even take a few steps.

Other freshmen with weaker cultivation or lower realms were directly forced to their knees and couldn't get up.

Wanjue Academy is one of the four major academies. In fact, all the freshmen who can enter Wanjue Academy are quite capable, and there are not many freshmen who can be overwhelmed.

Zhong Liyu pulled someone up from the back and asked them a question, only to find out that the person was specially recruited by the Planting Academy.

It's normal for the new students in the Planting Academy to be physically weaker than those in the Sword Cultivation Academy, as they are often overwhelmed by gravity.

As long as you can adapt, it's still possible to slowly climb the mountain.

Jiang He slowly stood up in this way. Her cultivation level was not high, only at the Foundation Establishment stage, so every step she took was somewhat difficult.

Moreover, the drizzle had just passed, and every patch of soil on the mountain was muddy, making it difficult to climb; one could easily slip and fall if one wasn't careful.

Standing next to Jiang He, Zhong Liyu lifted her toes off the ground and walked nimbly upwards as if on flat ground.

Jiang He is different from her; she must use earth elemental energy to solidify the soil or create steps to climb up.

Jiang He walked with difficulty. A candidate from Shanyang walked ahead of her. Wang Xian recognized her at a glance. Watching Jiang He's arduous journey, she felt a strange sense of superiority. She turned and began chatting with the female cultivator beside her:

"Do you remember I told you before that Wanjue admitted the top scorer in our state's college entrance examination this year?"

"I remember, I remember you said she had a useless spiritual root. I've always been puzzled, isn't a useless spiritual root almost the same as a piece of trash? How could a cultivator like that become the top scorer in the college entrance examination?"

"Who knows? As soon as she became the top scorer, we all suspected that she had cheated on her results."

"I would have doubts too."

Wang Xian noticed that the people around her agreed with her.

In addition, Wang Xian's voice was quite loud, and the freshmen who were near her cast curious glances at her, satisfying her vanity.

Wang Xian suddenly found an outlet for her emotions and kept raising her voice:

"See that? The person wearing a black hoodie, ten meters behind me, is Jiang He, the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Shenzhou City."

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze immediately shifted to Jiang He.

"Is Jiang He the only top scorer in the college entrance examination recruited by our university?"

"It looks like it. I feel like I've seen this face on StarNet before."

"No way, this female cultivator doesn't look particularly special."

……

After climbing a few steps, Wang Xian realized that Jiang He was still lagging behind her. She felt no pressure from gravity, so she maintained her disdainful attitude towards Jiang He.

"Look how difficult it is for her to walk on the flying boat at the same time. I think her cultivation level is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. When did our Wanjue Academy start to treat such a 'top scorer in the college entrance examination' as a treasure?"

As soon as Wang Xian finished speaking, the murmurs began to rise:

"Indeed, he doesn't look like a top scorer in the college entrance examination at all. With this kind of gravity, I feel like I could climb it by myself without any problem."

"Wow, this is so weak. Is this what a top scorer in the college entrance exam is like? I feel like I could be a top scorer in the college entrance exam if I went to China, haha."

"Not necessarily. We don't even know how those top scorers in the college entrance exam got their results. Do you have any connections in China? Then go."

"Haha, that's true..."

……

Unlike the others, Zhong Liyu did not react with surprise when listening to the other people's words; his eyes were filled with only the desire to curry favor with them.

This is the only top scorer in the college entrance examination that their prestigious academy has ever admitted.

It's the best in the entire state, so it's definitely prestigious.

If not now, when?

Zhong Liyu smiled brightly:

“Your name is Jiang He. My surname is Zhongli and my given name is Yu. If you ask me, these people are just bored and have no pressure. There’s no need to listen to them.”

Jiang He nodded in agreement, and Wang Xian's words were actually correct.

She was indeed weak; the biggest feeling Jiang He experienced from this gravity-based stunt was that her physical strength was inadequate.

This gravitational pull created by a special magnetic field can actually help to better train one's weak body.

Wang Xian had attracted enough attention, and she was immersed in the praise she received. When she looked at Jiang He again, her eyes turned mean:

"Since everyone shares my opinion that the top scorer admitted to our academy is unworthy of the title, then I will investigate!"

Zhong Liyu leaned against the tree with his arms crossed, watching Wang Xian's movements.

Wang Xian retreated from the front and attacked Jiang He. With a kick, several short swords flew out from under her feet, aiming straight for Jiang He's knee.

If Jiang He wanted to dodge, she would have to move her body.

Seeing that Jiang He was having difficulty moving, she guessed that Jiang He was moving slowly.

You either can't dodge it, or you'll lose your footing and fall because of your big movements.

Zhong Liyu didn't intervene. He looked at Jiang He, seemingly certain that she would have a solution.

Wang Xian's plan was shrewd and clever.

Jiang He, of course, would not let him have his way.

Wang Xian's short sword flew towards Jiang He. The sword was fast and aggressive. The other freshmen watched this scene nervously, and no one stopped her. Even those who had just been discussing Jiang He were waiting to see her make a fool of herself. They didn't even try to dodge. It seems that the title of top scholar is indeed just an empty name.

With the short sword at hand, Jiang He looked at Wang Xian and instantly cast an earth-based spell, deploying an earth shield that directly blocked Wang Xian's short sword.

Under the influence of gravity, the short sword had already lost three-tenths of its power. Perhaps because she had comprehended the meaning of the stone tablet, when she looked at Wang Xian's short sword again, she felt that the short sword was flying at a very slow speed, as if it were flying at twice the speed.

Jiang He didn't dodge; instead, she took the initiative to attack.

Even these students with high college entrance exam scores were somewhat surprised to see the short sword blocked.

"Instant casting of spells, that's impressive."

Frustrated by her failed attack, Wang Xian, perhaps feeling humiliated, wanted to launch a second attack.

But this time Jiang He didn't give her another chance.

The sword behind Jiang He was instantly drawn, and she attacked with the sword as usual, without the slightest hesitation.

She was even more ruthless than Wang Xian, her sword aimed straight at Wang Xian's face, even towards her eyes.

Wang Xian didn't expect Jiang He's attack to be even faster than hers. With this sword control move, she couldn't react in time and could only dodge in a hurry.

In the midst of the dodge, Jiang He silently recited an incantation to deliver the finishing blow. A vine wrapped around Wang Xian's ankle, pulling her straight down.

Wang Xian's attention was focused on the sword, and she didn't notice her footing. By the time she thought of a way to deal with it, she had already tripped over the vines.

Wang Xian fell backward, her feet slipping and tumbling down the steep mountain path for more than ten meters before returning to her original position.

Due to gravity, Wang Xian crashed hard to the ground. The ground was wet, and she fell directly into the mud, looking quite disheveled.

"Jiang He!"

Just as Wang Xian was about to shout in anger, a laugh interrupted her.

"Haha, is this the legendary dog-faced mud? It's quite a vivid description."
