Chapter 5: Former Deskmate, Now a Dragon Proud of His Strength

After that, someone jumped out to provoke, intending to step on Yan Mingwang's toes. That person, Wang Linchi, was also known to him; he was a student from the neighboring class. His temperament was somewhat reckless and his temper a bit volatile, but he was not a fool.

It is estimated that because he is a time traveler, his soul is different, which is why he has not been affected

He is the only one in the entire program, so this scholarship naturally fell into his hands

Others in the profession have already transitioned to combat-related specialties through various operations over the course of this month

Yama, the King of Hell? Wang Linchi saw a familiar person

Later, Wang Linchi decided not to engage with him any further, and the reason was quite simple. On the day of awakening, Yan Mingwang's awakened soul form was named the All-Powerful King, sharing the same potential level of 4 as him

I had not yet left the academy when I happened to hear a commotion.

Wang Linchi had never considered seizing the opportunity from the other party, as the likelihood of success was low. After all, what the other party could accomplish, he could not.

Yes, this may have rightfully belonged to you, but what can you do to confront the other party head-on? Have you considered your own identity and capabilities? Do you have the means to do so?

However, this farce at hetushu.com quickly came to an end, as the principal intervened, and ultimately it was left unresolved

Only those with outstanding academic performance will receive a subsidy of one hundred yuan each month

"Hmph, you Yan Mingwang are merely lucky; don't think that just because you became the chief through underhanded means, you can look down on me!" shouted a student angrily

At that moment, a wave of astonishment surged through Wang Linchi's mind, realizing that he only needed to master one ability to succeed

It is precisely because of this situation that Wang Linchi could not help but feel fear; this was not merely the awakening of the soul form, but also the simultaneous activation of the protagonist's halo, the mocking halo, and the intelligence-diminishing halo.

Having just finished borrowing the book and leaving the library, I heard the results. Naturally, Yan Mingwang emerged victorious. Initially, there was a sense of shock; no one believed that Yan Mingwang could win. This was followed by skepticism, which eventually evolved into accusations of opportunism, luck, and sneak attacks.

Indeed, the gambling match was easily resumed, with both parties placing their stakes and proceeding to the arena for the contest

Every secret realm is guarded by officials of the court, so how could he possibly gain entry

Instead, it is more practical to engage in a transaction, allowing the other party to find a method for soul forging on m.hetushu.com themselves

The process of receiving the scholarship was quite smooth: sign the document, collect the money, and leave.

To be honest, he does not understand why there is such a thing as a school beauty; who has the time to randomly rank such things

Their souls may not be suitable for combat, much like Wang Linchi's Book of Records, but as long as their soul types are combined, they can also transform into combat forms

King Yan of the Underworld has secured victory

This time I plan to borrow some books to take home, such as those related to the basics. After all, some of the books at home are not suitable for reading at the moment. If I want to learn, I must start from the beginning, rather than aiming too high.

During the battle, everyone could see that Yan Mingwang had overwhelmingly defeated this person, yet each one believed it was merely luck rather than strength, thinking they could do the same.

However, he did not leave; instead, he took a detour to the library. Over the past month, he has read quite a number of books related to soul types and soul appearances.

The reason is quite simple: although the talent of the All-Powerful King allows Yan Mingwang to quickly master everything and rapidly become stronger, transforming him into a king of all trades, the energy and resources required for this are excessively demanding, making it impossible for him to truly grow.

The outcome was that the two engaged in a gambling duel on the spot, losing the resources they had used for enhancement to King Yan.

In this way, the court can monopolize all resources and control the channels of advancement

This person was his deskmate in the county town. If Wang Linchi can be considered an outstanding student, then Yan Mingwang is truly a prodigy. He excelled in his studies and was extraordinarily handsome, resembling a figure beyond human beauty. He had a beautiful sister with no blood relation, a charming childhood friend, and, more importantly, it seemed that all the campus beauties from his college had some connection with him

Even those who went to the site to watch were similarly transformed in their perceptions

Unfortunately, he is unable to enter the secret realm, as the court stipulates that only those with awakened battle-type soul manifestations are permitted to enter, while others are not allowed access

Offending the person who grants scholarships may result in them retracting fifty yuan, but starting next month, the scholarship will no longer be within their reach

In the distance, he saw a familiar person

Perhaps in order to obtain this forging method, it falls upon this seemingly main character, Yan Mingwang. After all, if he were truly the protagonist, any slight leakage from him would be sufficient for me at the current stage to utilize.

It simply does not exist; even if it did, it is not something he could access

Yes, there are scholarships

Moreover, a group of onlookers also followed along, which caused Wang Linchi to shake his head. He had no intention of going to see it, as it held no suspense for him whatsoever

After all, only King Yan of the Underworld can enjoy the benefits of reduced intelligence; Wang Linchi cannot. When the enemy's intelligence recovers, it would be disastrous if he turned against himself. Moreover, at that time, he was only thinking about getting ten million and securing a stable job before marrying and having children. His soul counterpart did not support him in having ambitions.

Certainly, over the past month, he has not only been reading books but also seeking ways to acquire the Soul Forging Method

Just as someone has swapped his soul seed, shouting is of no use; on the contrary, if the other party finds out, one might even lose their life.

At this moment, what Wang Linchi needs to do is to quietly develop and accumulate strength, rather than engaging in conflict with the other party as if he has a problem with his mind; he does not possess such capability

Then there was no intention to have too much contact with King Yan of the Underworld, after all, he was just a deskmate. At that time, most of the focus was on physical endurance, and there were not many cultural classes, so the communication was rather ordinary

A month later, Wang Lin and the library once again entered Qinghe College. He came to the college not for classes or anything else, but to receive a scholarship

The kind that requires no thought at all

Just like Wang Linchi, if he were to equip the Rainbow Light series of soul types, he could also transform into a combat class. However, it is unnecessary, as it is completely incompatible, and entering the secret realm would only lead to death.

A group of people has gathered together, seemingly arguing about something

More importantly, one can only see beautiful women by the side of the other person. A man like him approaching might end up being sacrificed

This is actually not a problem; however, for some reason, everyone believes he is a fallen genius and mocks him

There are indeed drawbacks, but there are only fifty yuan left. However, it is sufficient for Wang Linchi's living expenses, and he did not make a fuss about it

Wang Linchi stood at a distance, believing that the next step would likely involve a gamble or duel. Moreover, observing this student, it seemed he was a scion of a certain prominent family in the city, and his abilities were undoubtedly impressive

As for Yan Mingwang, it is evident that he possesses the qualities of a protagonist; otherwise, who would dare to give such an ostentatious name? More importantly, no one would name their son something as juvenile as "Mingwang". Furthermore, the character "Ming" itself is considered inauspicious, making it even less likely for a parent to choose such a name for their child.
