Chapter 17 (1/2)

Her previous owner was the top powerhouse, Dark Flare?

Jack was surprised.

The equipment used by the top powerhouse was only worth 200 contribution points?

Jack believed that if he sold the mask to someone else, he would definitely be able to sell it for more than 2,000 contribution points.

Even if it was 20,000 contribution points, there would be a lot of people willing to bid!

This was practically a big bargain!

As for the mocking buff the mask came with,

Jack didn’t care.

His Death Soldiers needed more EXP to thrive.

If the demons from the outer realm came knocking? He couldn’t ask for more.

The Crown Crystal Man kept the other two items and sent Jack out of the Trading Mystic Realm.

Jack logged out of the game and looked at the sun rising over the horizon.

A new day began.

“Next, we’ll be reporting the morning news of the school.”

“At 4:58 this morning, the player Legion successfully conquered the Earth Elemental Dungeon and became the Master of the Earth Elemental Mystic Realm…”

“Last night, something happened in the southeastern region of the outer realm. Grandmaster Brother Ma attacked and repelled the outer realm attack…”

“According to experts’ predictions, the scores for this year’s college entrance examination are: Level 75, Cultural Class 90 marks, Combat Class 90 marks. The experts have pointed out that children hate playing games mainly because of their parents…”

…

Before Jack could return to his seat, Mack rushed into the classroom.

“Jack, I know a huge secret!”

“What?”

Mike said in a low voice.

“Last night, both Legion and the Four Incandescent Flames were in the Earth Elemental Dungeon. The Legion beat her to the dungeon. The Four Incandescent Flames’ face turned green!”

“Who is the Four Incandescent Flames”

Jack looked confused.

Why didn’t he know this person?

Go see a doctor if her face turned green!

What does it have to do with me?

Mike looked puzzled.

“Don’t you read the school forum?

“Fan Jia’er’s ID is Four Incandescent Flames, and she’s a genius with Grade S talent.”

“Oh.”

Jack’s reply was too perfunctory.

Jack was really not interested in such a genius.

The gap between the two would only grow wider.

Jack’s eyes were already on something farther away.

Mike couldn’t help but complain.

“Fan Jia’er is definitely going to become a top student in the best Guardian University!

This year’s scholar’s scores might not be lower than Level 97, or even Level 99! ”

They gossiped a while over Fan Jia’er, then Mack changed the subject.

“Jack, in the combat test this afternoon, you might face the Four Incandescent Flames!

Her talent is related to the Earth Elemental. Her endurance is strong! Her Defense is astonishing! You have to be careful. ”

“Got it. Let’s not talk about this. Let’s talk about you.”

As soon as Jack spoke, Mike couldn’t stop talking. He began to tell the rest of the inspirational story about how he’d managed to rise from Level 5 to Level 9 overnight.

Mike was a good friend.

He had helped Jack a lot during the holidays and even dragged him to Mike’s house for dinner. He didn’t treat him as an outsider.

The two of them were more like brothers than real brothers.

Listening to Mike’s motivational story, Jack began to think about how to help Mike increase his strength.

It would be best if he could help Mike get into Guardian University.

Mike’s father was a guardian who had retreated from the outer realm.

His biggest dream was for his son to get into Guardian University and bring glory to his comrades.

Although Mack usually giggled and talked nonstop,

but he worked no less harder than others in the game.

It was already very impressive for him to be able to reach Level 9 in two days with a mere Class C talent!

With Jack’s help and Mike’s own efforts, getting into Guardian University was not a problem.

The morning classes passed quickly.

Jack and Mike went to the cafeteria for lunch, then went back to the classroom and leaned over the table for a short break.

The bell rang.

The afternoon combat test was about to begin.

“Jack, you can do it!”

Mike voluntarily became a cheerleader.

Jack rolled his eyes at him.

The physical education teacher stood on the field, taking attendance with the roster.

“Zhang Hu, Fei Jianyue, Zhou Dapeng…”
