Chapter 106: Chapter 106: New Record! First in History!
Inside the venue, everyone was staring at the two giant screens, eager to see the final result.
"Li Yuan, you truly are strong! You should change your name to 'Li Strong'." Gu Qianghan stood among the crowd, eyes gleaming.
"The score hasn't moved."
"700 points, why isn't it moving?"
"Did he fail?"
"Could he have been killed by the mountain guardian star beasts?" Li Yuan's score was stuck at 700 points, causing many first-year students to speculate.
Even Dong Haifeng and An Nong were somewhat worried.
"Relax, trust Senior Brother, scoring a thousand points is a piece of cake." Only Gu Qianghan remained confident.
"Can he really do it?" Many students from the Sixth Institute were still concerned.
"Trust my judgment." Gu Qianghan grinned, looking mysterious.
Gu Qianghan internally thought, "According to my sister, Li Yuan's martial arts skills are among the top dozens globally for his age. Within the first-year students at Kunlun Martial University, he's undoubtedly dominant."
Why did Gu Qianghan believe in Li Yuan so much? Was it blind faith?
No! It was because of intelligence!
He had already learned from Lin Lanyue that Li Yuan's martial arts skills had reached mid-fourth level.
However, Gu Qianghan never shared this information with other classmates to maintain his image.
Similarly, the dozens of second and third-year students in the venue understood the situation.
"This junior named Li Yuan is indeed impressive."
"Junior? Among us second-years, apart from Senior Brother Liu and the other two who reached the fifth mountain, no one else can match him."
"Not just the second-years. Even among the fifth-year seniors, most have been stuck on the third mountain for years." These second and third-year students were deeply impressed.
Too formidable.
...
Li Yuan, a first-year student who hadn't even started classes yet.
Judging by his martial arts skills, he was already among the top first-years.
Among the second-years, he was definitely in the top five.
How extraordinary?
"He's not done yet. His name is still highlighted, indicating he's still challenging the mountain, likely battling the fourth mountain's guardian."
"Seems so." The older students exchanged thoughts. "I feel he can truly compete with those monsters from Starlight and Starry Sky."
"Compete with Starlight's monsters? Indeed! He can certainly match them. Our school has produced a monster this year, haha."
"Can he defeat the fourth mountain's guardian?"
"No way."
"If he does, won't he reach the fifth mountain? A first-year student, before officially starting classes, clearing the fifth mountain in the entrance competition? Even Senior Brother Jin couldn't do that."
"Not just Senior Brother Jin. I checked the historical records. Only one predecessor ever did it."
"Impossible."
"700 points is already incredible. Compared to him, we're nothing." The second and third-year students naturally felt it was impossible.
Most people, when part of a significant historical event, are unaware of its gravity.
Therefore, most people tend to favor the past over the present.
Suddenly.
"Buzz~" The numbers on both giant screens simultaneously jumped, with Li Yuan's score leaping from 700 to 1000 points.
First: Li Yuan (1000 points)
Second: Yang Hong (399 points)
Third: Wu Luo (329 points)
Fourth: Han Hongjun (288 points)
...
Entrance Competition (Academy):
First: Sixth Academy (6767 points)
Second: Third Academy(6563 points)
Third: Seventh Academy(6043 points)
Fourth: Fifth Academy(5956 points)
...
"1000 points!!"
"Holy crap, he really did it! Senior Brother is awesome!" An Nong and Gu Qianghan almost simultaneously jumped up, waving their fists excitedly.
It felt as if they themselves had scored the 1000 points.
Involuntarily, Gu Qianghan glanced at An Nong, sensing a familiar competitive vibe from him.
"Brother Qiang." An Nong scratched his head sheepishly, then continued waving his fist, shouting, "First place! Sixth Institute is first."
"Senior Brother is amazing."
"1000 points! We got first place." The venue erupted, with all Sixth Institute students, regardless of their origin, celebrating the glory they felt.
"1000 points?"
"Li Yuan really scored 1000 points? Is he that much stronger than Yang Hong and Wu Luo?"
"Is the system broken?" The other institutes' students found it hard to believe.
It was too absurd.
If Li Yuan had scored 560 points, they might have barely accepted it, but 1000 points?
That indicated a massive gap, even compared to the top first-year students.
It was a cliff-like lead.
"You don't understand. That Wu Luo was completely defeated by our Senior Brother back in March."
An Nong immediately took on the role of commentator, loudly explaining, "Our Senior Brother, in terms of strength, is among the top nationwide. It's just because he didn't awaken his martial arts talent that he came to Kunlun Martial University."
"Our Senior Brother scored 900 points in martial arts during the college entrance exam! Full marks!" Gu Qianghan also shouted.
"900 points?"
"Didn't awaken martial arts talent? This!"
"So powerful? He didn't awaken martial arts talent?" The students from other provinces were stunned.
A full-mark genius?
Nationwide, on average, only one or two such martial arts geniuses emerge from each province.
Such a figure should naturally go to one of the top three global universities. How did he end up at Kunlun Martial University?
"Really 1000 points?"
"This is more impressive than Senior Brother Jin back in the day, truly a monster."
"Where did he come from?"
"His score is still increasing?"
"His martial arts skills must be mid-fourth level. How old is he? He hasn't even started classes yet?"
"A monster like this would be top-tier at Starlight University."
"And he came to our school?"
"Full marks in martial arts? Didn't awaken martial arts talent?" The dozens of older students were amazed, listening to the Sixth Institute students recount Li Yuan's past achievements.
It was hard for them to stay calm.
1000 points and 700 points were two completely different concepts.
These second and third-year students knew the specifics of the Kunlun Nine Mountains scoring:
First Mountain: 1-30 points, full marks require approximately second-level mastery.
Second Mountain: 30-100 points, full marks require approximately third-level high mastery.
Third Mountain: 100-300 points, full marks require approximately fourth-level initial mastery.
Fourth Mountain: 300-1000 points, full marks require approximately fourth-level mid mastery.
Fifth Mountain: 1000-3000 points
Sixth Mountain: 3000-10000 points
...
"He's still challenging."
"1200 points now."
"Could he reach the Sixth Mountain?" Everyone was fixated on the two giant screens.
Over the years, Kunlun Martial University has seen students suddenly rise to prominence.
But overall, it's far from matching the top-tier talents from the three elite universities.
Today, Li Yuan's overwhelming performance truly shocked the new and older students of Kunlun Martial University.
Is this a freshman?
...
In the virtual network, Kunlun Nine Mountains, Fifth Mountain.
"The difficulty of the Fifth Mountain has skyrocketed."
"Just now, I had to use the third form of the Starry Spear Technique, 'Dawn Pierces the Clouds,' to barely kill the final guardian of the Fourth Mountain, the Mountain King Wolf."
"Now, these opponents are all like weaker versions of the Mountain King Wolf."
Li Yuan, wielding his spear, was currently in a tough spot, his movements swift like the wind, dodging attacks from a group of humanoid astral beasts.
These star beasts had weaker physical attributes than Li Yuan but possessed fourth-level initial mastery skills.
Each strike was deadly.
With over ten of them attacking together, Li Yuan was fully suppressed, struggling to kill even one.
Suddenly.
"Swish~" Li Yuan seized an opportunity, his spear flashing like lightning, piercing through one star beast's throat.
Blood splattered! Dead!
But in the next moment.
"Slash~" A blurry blade light cut across Li Yuan's back, the terrifying impact making him stagger, losing his perfect balance.
"Clang!" "Boom!" Other astral beasts seized the chance, unleashing a terrifying combo.
After narrowly dodging three strikes.
"Slash~"
A blade light flashed, and Li Yuan's figure vanished from the Fifth Mountain.
Defeated!
"Congratulations, first-year student 'Li Yuan,' for reaching the Fifth Mountain on your first attempt at Kunlun Nine Mountains, scoring 1300 points, creating a new record for the entrance competition, and entering the top 100 records for first-year students at Kunlun Nine Mountains." A system voice announced.
Phew!
Li Yuan returned to his personal space in Kunlun Space.
"Entrance competition record?" Li Yuan was momentarily surprised, then clicked the screen to check.
...Entrance Competition Records (Since Qixing Calendar 2009):
First Place: Li Yuan, 1300 points (2043)
Second Place: Yan Jing, 1100 points (2029)
Third Place: Jin Huguo, 700 points (2041)
...
Kunlun Nine Mountains First-Year Records (Since Qixing Calendar 2009)
First Place: Yan Jing, 8000 points (2030)
Second Place: Jin Huguo, 8000 points (2042)
Third...
...
Sixty-Seventh Place: Li Yuan, 1300 points (2043)
...
"First in history?" Li Yuan quickly understood the significance of the two rankings.
The first ranking represented his score being the highest among all students participating in the entrance competition since 2009.
First in history!!
The second ranking wasn't limited to the entrance competition but included all first-year students' scores in Kunlun Nine Mountains throughout history.
"Jin Huguo?" Li Yuan muttered, remembering the name from the rankings.
A quick calculation indicated that among the top ten in the entrance competition history, only Jin Huguo was still at the university.
Jin Huguo should be a third-year senior.
"He reached 8000 points by the end of his first year? That score should be the Sixth Mountain." Li Yuan's eyes gleamed with a smile, "Good."
"Looks like Kunlun Martial University has some talents too."
"Finally, some challenge."
...
Clang~ The virtual network pod opened, and Li Yuan stood up, hearing the cheers outside.
"Senior Brother!"
"Senior Brother!" An Nong and Gu Qianghan, standing at the front, exchanged a knowing glance and shouted in unison.
Immediately, dozens of new students from Jiangcheng shouted "Senior Brother."
Then, new students from other provinces also joined in.
In no time, the entire venue echoed with the chant of "Senior Brother."
This scene left students from other institutes speechless but unable to argue.
With such strength, who else could be the senior brother?
...
"1300 points?" Wu Luo, in his underground room, looked at the score on his smart bracelet.
He was silent for a long time.
"Damn, is he that monstrous! If I knew, I wouldn't have chosen Kunlun Martial University."
...
"1300 points?"
"First in history? Truly amazing!"
Yang Hong, the burly youth, also in his dorm, looked at the score, muttering, "With such achievements, is he planning to compete in the Global University Martial Arts Competition as a freshman?"
The Global University Martial Arts Competition is a worldwide contest for university martial arts students.
But usually, first-year students don't get to participate.
...
Such a major event didn't need students to notify teachers.
The relevant teachers received notifications from their assistant AIs immediately.
In the Black Dragon Building, exclusive to Sixth Institute students and teachers.
On the ninth floor, in an office.
"Hmm?" Dean Li, contemplating his training plan, felt his smart bracelet vibrate and looked down to check.
"Hmm?"
Dean Li was momentarily stunned, "1300 points? Wow, a significant improvement from last time?"
"Could it be this kid is really cheating?"
