  At that moment, Bai Jiacao was scrolling through the livestream platform, and it was filled with on-screen comments and comments in the comment section.

  [No way, he’s that good?]

  [Meng Chao of Agricultural University’s martial arts course? I’ll remember that name!]

  [Wang Dao is the best of the younger generation. I heard that since young, he has never lost when it comes to all forms of competitions, regardless of whether they’re about stances or real fights. He was actually forced to lose together with this Meng Chao?]

  [I heard that Meng Chao came from a regional key high school. Before the national college examination, he was a nobody. In less than a year, he’s practically like a different person! His cultivation speed is a little too ridiculous, don’t you think?! He seems even more terrifying than Wang Dao and Shao Jianqing!]

  [Compared to his strength, what is more terrifying are his strategies. At the start, he ran away and lured Wang Dao into continuously forming spirit energy magnetic fields and wasting his spirit energy. He also used that time to fully understand Wang Dao’s fighting style. In the end, he used the terrain to launch a desperate counterattack and forced such a powerful enemy to a tie. He has such a calm head and rich fighting experience. He’s absolutely nothing like a freshman.]

  [Tactics are naturally important, but without the endless supply of spirit energy and stamina provided by the Ultimate Style, no matter how great his strategies were, he wouldn’t have been able to make use of them. This Ultimate Style is pretty interesting. Are there any training classes related to it?]

  [Right now, Agricultural University’s martial arts course has already put up an official website for the Ultimate Style. They’ve also set up experience centers in the Supernatural Tower, and the four luxurious malls to the north, west, south, and east of the city. Also, an Ultimate Style flagship experience center is being built beside Yan Organization’s Ripple Force flagship shop.

  [Looks like many of the rich tycoons in Dragon City regard Ultimate Style highly, and they’ve invested a lot of money in it. Soon, the Ultimate Style will be able to stand on equal footing with the Overkill Style!]

  [Soon? Today, the Ultimate Style already fought the Overkill Style to a tie!]

  Bai Jiacao stared at all the praises.

  Of course, she did not know that there were quite a lot of ghostwriters from Yan Organization mixed among them.

  And so, she was so happy that she grinned and handed her phone to her parents so that they could look.

  Bai Suxin’s heart had been aching for her son’s injuries, but after he gasped for breath for half a minute, he climbed up to his feet. His recovery speed was much faster than that of Wang Dao, who still lay on the other bank. It was only then that Bai Suxin sighed in relief.

  When she saw the comments online, she became happy again and gestured at Meng Yishan with her chin.

  Meng Yishan stuttered, “W-What is it?”


  “Our son did well. Aren’t you going to send a message to your circle of friends and give a bonus to your employees to spread the joy?”


  “There’s…… no need for that, right?”


  “Well, if you’re not going to, I will. Hand over your phone,” Bai Suxin said.

  Meng Yishan refused it. “I…… I won’t!”


  “What did you just say?”


  Meng Chao was currently in the resting area of the arena in Graveyard Forest. Naturally, he did not know that he had become famous online, in his family group, neighborhood group, his mother’s grocery shopping group, and his father’s company group.

  Honestly, what he had used was not the fighting style he liked.

  He would rather bring Wang Dao on a stroll around Graveyard Forest for three-to-five hours, or even a whole day and a night, just to see who could outrun the other. In the end, when both of them were exhausted and foaming at the mouth, he believed that he would still have enough strength left to place Bloody Flame at Wang Dao’s neck.

  He might even pretend to cough up blood during the fight and use it to interfere with his opponent’s vision. Then, with lightning fast movements, he would stick a crystal bomb covered in Stone Statue Fungus liquid on his opponent’s back to blast their spine into bits. In the end, if he needed something more, he would bring out a pistol with crystal bullets and fire a shot at their forehead.

  Of course, his best strategy was to actually disappear into the crowd a few days ahead to figure out where his target lived and how he went about his daily life. Then, while he slept, he would sneak in and cut his throat or think of a way to poison his food.

  This was his fighting style in a real fight!

  However, since they were competing in front of people and he wanted to promote the Ultimate Style, it was best if he did not use such sinister methods. It was much more appropriate to use righteous methods.

  Wu Wu led the remnants of the alliance of the five universities against the remaining ten or so freshmen from Dragon City. Based on the cheers that came from the students who were sent out of the arena, Wu Wu, who had also practiced the Ultimate Style, brought even more surprises to the spectators.

  But Meng Chao no longer cared about the results of the tournament.

  In his field of vision, a dazzling ball of flames rose before it turned into rows of golden notifications.

  [Completed the renewed fourth segment of the Fight for the Ultimate Style, where you are supposed to win against at least five Overkill Style users who are at the same level as you are during the interuniversity tournament!

  [Congratulations, Fire Relayer, you have completed all the quests of the Fight for the Ultimate Style quest chain. Due to your hard work, the Ultimate Style has managed to shine with glory several years ahead of its time. Many of the superhumans and normal citizens have gotten to know the advantages of the brand new fighting model, and they will now begin to think about it and train in it. The chain reactions have already been formed, and there will no longer be anyone that can stop the Ultimate Style’s rise to power.

  [Quest Rewards: 50,000 contribution points. You can choose to awaken a brand new supernatural ability and three skills whose Skillfulness you want to increase by one level.]

  Meng Chao did not hesitate and chose to awaken Bizarre Stab.

  Walking Corpse and Bizarre Stab were the lurking and assassination secret techniques that the black skull instructor had taught Meng Chao when he joineed the mysterious and unfathomable training camp in his previous life.

  Walking Corpse could minimize his physiological functions and make all his organs enter a state of near hibernation while still allowing him to maintain great motor functions.

  Bizarre Stab would allow him to use all sorts of inconceivable methods, tools, and skills to quietly take his opponent’s life in one move.

  An assassin skilled in these two skills was a true ghost.

  Meng Chao grunted while he experienced the pleasurable sensation that came after the pain when he experienced his old memories crashing into his mind.

  At that moment, his spirit energy value had reached the limit of a two-star superhuman. He had cleared 45 main meridians and one dragon meridian surrounding his spine.

  Among the 1,024 branch meridians, at least 50% of them had crystalized. His body functions were so strong that he would definitely not lose to a normal three-star superhuman.

  He had two killing moves. One of them was the Thousand Moon Slash, which was used to bind enemies and perform crowd control. The other was Demon Subduing Slash, which was used to determine a fight in one swift move. He had pushed them to Perfect Level, and now, his aim was to push them to Ultimate Level.

  As for the two secret techniques he had only just begun practicing, he pushed Walking Corpse to Master Level and raised Bizarre Stab with the Skillfulness reward to Specialist Level.

  After several months of fierce training, fighting, and harvesting, his senses, finger agility, and knowledge of monster structures had increased by leaps and bounds. Once he dumped a large amount of contribution points into it, his Basic Harvesting Skill also reached Perfect Level.

  It could be said that there were only a handful of monsters that could stump Meng Chao now. When he swept his gaze over the monsters, they were naked in front of him.

  ‘We won in the northern offense.

  ‘The Ultimate Style is also going to be promoted to the whole city.

  ‘My strength has also increased to the point where I can fight against those at the peak of Earth Realm.

  ‘Regardless of whether it’s my fate or Dragon City’s fate, everything is changing in a good direction. But I can’t let my guard down. Once we gain full victory in the northern offense, the subsequent development of the city will definitely be different from my memories. Many of the things I remember will not happen, but knowledge of them might interfere with my judgment.

  ‘But there is one thing I can be certain of, and it is that the Nine Great Supernatural Entities won’t take this lying down. They will definitely launch an even fiercer counterattack.

  ‘But if we lock down on these abnormal beasts with intelligence and get rid of their threat, we’ll be able to gain full victory in the Monster War, right?’


  As he thought of this, the flames before Meng Chao’s eyes jumped, and a brand new quest popped up.

  [A sturdy fortress is always taken down from the inside. Often, a soft brain is much more dangerous compared to sharp claws.

  [Quest: Mystery of the Supernatural Entities

  [Quest Details: The abnormal beasts possessing great intelligence known as Supernatural Entities have infiltrated Dragon City. Search for the secrets and uncover them so that you can bring true victory to Dragon City!

  [Quest Difficulty: Unknown

  [Quest Reward: Unknown]

  ‘I knew it. The Nine…… No, it should be the Eight Great Supernatural Entities are my next opponents.’


  Meng Chao’s mind raced. ‘But isn’t Kindling being a little too unreliable? The difficulty and reward are both unknown. And it didn’t even tell me the way to complete the quest. I don’t have a single clue as to how I’m supposed to find these Supernatural Entities. It’s asking me to search for a needle in a haystack, but where am I even supposed to begin?

  ‘Looks like Kindling is really not omniscient and all-powerful. Or rather, its ability increases as my brain improves, and the more stuff I remember, the more quest information I unlock.’


  Even though the quest description was really unclear, Meng Chao was still able to seize two key points.

  First, the quest was named the Mystery of the Supernatural Entities. The requirements were for him to find and uncover the secrets behind the Supernatural Entities, not to completely get rid of them.

  What did it mean? Did Kindling think that Meng Chao was still too weak and could only look for clues before reporting them to the official organizations like the abnormal beast research department? Then, there would naturally be Deity Realm elites who would attack the Supernatural Entities.

  Or maybe it was not yet the time to get rid of the Supernatural Entities. Instead, it was more important for the future of Dragon City for him to uncover the truth behind their existence.

  Also, what did it mean by “bring true victory to Dragon City”?

  In his previous life, Dragon City went through years of bloody war. Even though they paid a devastating price for it, they did win the Monster War.

  Could it be that Kindling thought that the devastating victory for which they had sacrificed a lot of their own was actually a false victory and wanted them to defeat their enemies effortlessly and sweep them down while remaining uninjured, because this was “true victory”? Did it think that this was the only way for them to have the right to join the next war in the Other World?

  However, it might not be a problem of them suffering major losses or not. As Kindling gained more information, it might not believe that Dragon City had actually won the Monster War in his previous life.

  Meng Chao decided to think about these questions later.

  Cheers had erupted all around him like an avalanche.

  All the students in the resting area for the alliance of the five universities jumped up in excitement.

  Chu Feixiong, Duan Lian, Xie Feng, and around eight other built boys hugged Meng Chao tightly. They first squeezed him so tightly that he winced, then tossed him high into the air.

  “We won!”


  “Hurray!”


  “After ten years, for the first time, we finally won against Dragon City University!”
