Lightning-type E-rank? My Space-time-type S-rank can't be hidden anymore!

For a moment, the entire room fell silent.

Then it exploded.

"No weapons? Has he gone mad?"

"How are you going to fight an F-rank lightning-type enemy without a Tier 2 B-rank weapon?"

"Level 4 of Tier 1, after two days at most Level 5 of Tier 1, I could do that too!"

"Wait a minute, is this a trap?"

After they finished arguing, Lin Yuan slowly extended five fingers.

"but..."

The entire room fell silent again.

"The challenge isn't free. It costs 50,000 per attempt."

"Fifty thousand?! Why don't you just rob someone?!" someone immediately shouted from below.

Lin Yuan replied without changing his expression, "Robbing is nowhere as lucrative as this."

The man choked so hard his face turned green.

But someone quickly realized what was happening.

Fifty thousand yuan sounds like a lot, but if he wins... Lin Yuan's score is over seven hundred points, and thirty percent of that is over two hundred points.

Is it worth spending 50,000 to buy 200+ points?

It was totally worth it.

Those ranked high on the leaderboard, weren't they all built up through massive resources? For them, 50,000 yuan is just pocket money.

Sure enough, the eyes of several well-dressed candidates lit up.

"I will report it."

The first person to step forward was a boy wearing the uniform of Hangzhou No. 1 High School. He wasn't very tall, but he had broad shoulders, and it was obvious that he had trained.

C-grade soil system, first-order, 5 layers.

He was considered one of the best among the candidates from outside the main pool. His name was Wang Lei, and his father was in the business of selling monster materials in Hangzhou; his family was quite wealthy.

"Scan the code or transfer money?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Scan the code." Wang Lei took out his phone.

Lin Yuan also took out his phone. The closer they got to Hangzhou, the better the signal became. They could already get two bars of signal in the outer areas.

He opened the QR code for receiving payments, handed it over, and Wang Lei scanned it. The notification sound of 50,000 yuan arriving in his account was crisp and pleasant.

"bite."

Lin Yuan's eyes crinkled when he heard the voice.

He put his phone away and stretched his wrists.

He didn't adopt any fighting stance; he just stood there casually.

"bring it on."

Wang Lei didn't waste any words.

He unleashed his earth-elemental power at full force, a layer of grayish-yellow rock armor forming on his right fist, and punched towards Lin Yuan's chest.

With considerable strength and speed, it is indeed a formidable opponent for a Tier 1, Level 5 fighter.

Lin Yuan turned to the side, his fist grazing past his clothes.

He seized Wang Lei's wrist and pulled him along.

Wang Lei felt as if his strength had vanished into thin air, and he was falling forward uncontrollably.

Then, he tripped, and Lin Yuan's toe somehow hooked onto his ankle.

Wang Lei fell face down on the ground, getting a mouthful of dirt.

The entire room fell silent again.

Just one move. Only one move.

He didn't use any superpowers, weapons, or even any decent moves; it was just a matter of pulling, dragging, and tripping, like an old man playing with a child.

......

"Next," Lin Yuan said.

Wang Lei got up from the ground, his expression changing from anger to confusion, and then to a bewildered feeling of "Was I just made a fool of?"

But he lost, and that's that. Students from Hangzhou No. 1 High School still have some dignity.

He dusted himself off, stood aside, and didn't say anything.

But others didn't think so. They believed Wang Lei was too careless and couldn't utilize his earth-type advantage after being brought into close combat.

Why not just switch to a remote one?

The second person to sign up was a fire-type, Tier 1, Level 5, Rank B.

Scan the code, payment received, start playing.

He had learned his lesson; he retreated immediately to create distance, and fired three fireballs, each the size of a fist, in a triangular formation towards Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan didn't even try to dodge.

He walked straight toward the fire-type examinee.

When the first fireball flew right in front of him, he tilted his head slightly, and the fireball grazed his ear as it flew past.

When the second fireball flew towards his chest, he turned slightly to the side, and the fireball grazed past his clothes.

When the third fireball flew towards his face, he raised his hand and slapped it away.

It was smashed apart.

With his bare hands, he slapped away a level 5, tier 1 fireball of the B-grade fire element.

The fire-type examinee's eyes nearly popped out, and then Lin Yuan's knee slammed into his stomach.

The battle is over.

The third one. The fourth one. The fifth one.

The sound of scanning QR codes kept coming.

Fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand.

Lin Yuan's mobile banking balance was increasing at a visible speed, his smile grew brighter and brighter, and his actions became more and more efficient.

"Hehehe."

The sixth one is a wind-type character, very fast, and thinks he can wear Lin Yuan down by flying a kite.

Then he discovered that Lin Yuan was much faster than him, not just a little faster, but much faster.

Lin Yuan's true cultivation level was the 8th level of the first rank, which was at least three levels higher than everyone else present.

Lin Yuan caught up with the wind-element examinee in three steps and delivered a chop to the back of the neck.

The battle is over.

The seventh. The eighth.

By the ninth one, someone finally noticed something was wrong.

"Wait a minute." A bespectacled examinee pushed up his glasses and stared intently at Lin Yuan: "Your cultivation level... is not Level 5 of the First Order."

Lin Yuan stopped what he was doing, looked at him, and calmly said, "No, it's not."

"Tier 1, Level 6?"

Lin Yuan shook his head.

"Tier 1, Level 7?"

Lin Yuan shook his head again.

The bespectacled examinee's pupils contracted slightly, and he cursed angrily, "You're a first-tier, eighth-level cultivator?!"

These four words were like a bucket of ice water poured over everyone's heads: Tier 1, Level 8.

How long has it been since the 3,000 test-takers in Hangzhou woke up to reality? Less than half a month.

In just half a month, he went from awakening to the 8th level of the first tier. What does that mean?

Han Feng, the undisputed number one player in Hangzhou, possesses an A-grade weapon system and has accumulated abundant family resources, yet he only reached level 5 of Tier 1 in half a month.

This person is an F-rank lightning type, at level 8 of the first tier.

"And," the bespectacled examinee's voice was somewhat hoarse, "your number of Bone Tempering Wheels... seems to be more than five, doesn't it?"

Lin Yuan didn't answer. He simply slammed his fist into the ground.

The power of nine rounds of bone tempering is unleashed without reservation.

A spiderweb-like crack appeared on the ground, centered on his fist.

The audience was silent.

The wealthy young men who hadn't yet taken the stage nearly dropped their phones.

At least seven rounds of bone tempering, first tier, eighth level, lightning-type superpower. These three words combined are beyond what "genius" can describe.

"Want to keep fighting?" Lin Yuan stood up, patted the dirt off his fists, and looked around.

No one spoke. The rich kids, who had been so energetic just moments before, now looked like chickens with their necks being choked.

Lin Yuan waited for three seconds. No one spoke.

"Alright then." As soon as he finished speaking, he walked towards the edge of the crowd. After taking a few steps, he flashed a bright smile.

"Hehehe, I've hit the jackpot!"

......

The moon rose from the east and hung in the center of the sky.

One by one, bonfires lit up in the open space outside. The examinees gathered around the fires in twos and threes. Some were whispering about what had just happened, while others were quietly checking their bank balances on their phones.

Lin Yuan returned to the big tree he had been under before, leaned against the trunk, crossed his legs, and opened his mobile banking app.

Received: 450,000. He smiled and put his phone back in his pocket, then closed his eyes.

This money is so easy to make.
