Chapter 22 3rd Grade 1st
……
As soon as Qin Fengqing reached the north gate of Hope City, he heard shouts coming from the Magic Martial Arts Academy students behind him.
"Qin Fengqing, a second-level student of the Magic Martial Arts University, has killed countless enemies in the meat grinder! With the body of a third-rank martial artist, he killed Mu Yi, the son of Mu Sheng, a seventh-rank commander of Tianmen City, and a fifth-rank peak expert!"
Dozens of fourth-rank martial artists! Several fifth-rank, early-stage martial artists! One fifth-rank, peak-stage martial artist!
"Level 2 of Magic and Martial Arts University..."
Cheers erupted from the north gate.
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
……
Qin Fengqing had been saving people for the past two weeks, so he hoped that many people in the city would recognize him. He had also previously killed a fifth-grade, early-stage underground martial artist in public.
Some warriors who have returned to Hope City have already reported this to their superiors.
Therefore, Qin Fengqing's ability to kill a peak fifth-grade martial artist in the underground cave was only somewhat unexpected.
At the city gate in the north of Hope City, Xu Mofu, the head of the Shanghai Underground Military Department, and Wu Kuishan stood with their hands behind their backs.
Seeing Qin Fengqing and his group looking so spirited, Xu Mofu exclaimed, "It seems your Magic Martial Arts Academy has truly produced an extraordinary genius! A third-grade high-level formation slaying a fifth-grade peak martial artist..."
Wu Kuishan nodded and said, "To be honest, this kid has surprised us a bit. His father wasn't as good as him back then."
"Qin Nansheng? What a pity..."
……
Amid cheers, Qin Fengqing arrived at the logistics department and exchanged all the spoils of war that she didn't need for academic credits.
And then there's the main event: Qin Fengqing first found Mu Yi's kill mission and accepted it, then submitted his head and fifth-rank medal, earning a total of 1500 credits.
This time, Qin Fengqing earned a huge sum of 5000 credits.
At the price of one kilogram of Grade A alloy, he could buy a full 10 kilograms, which was enough to forge a long sword. Qin Fengqing planned to exchange for a custom-made long sword at the Magic Martial Arts Logistics Department after breaking through to the fourth rank.
……
After a month of continuous fighting, Qin Fengqing felt that he was about to break through to the peak of the third rank.
Through constant battles, Qin Fengqing has reached a state of perfect harmony between his essence, energy, and spirit.
His meridians, skin, and flesh had been tempered to a certain level.
Qin Fengqing immediately decided to break through to the peak of the third rank on the spot.
Arriving at the energy room in Hope City, I spent my contribution to open one.
Hope City also has cultivation energy rooms, but there are no underground warriors to provide energy; you need to put in cultivation energy stones yourself.
Upon entering the energy room, Qin Fengqing inserted a cultivation energy stone. The energy stone continuously transformed into pure energy, helping Qin Fengqing temper his fascia and flesh.
......
One day later.
Qin Fengqing's body was bursting with solid qi and blood, and all his meridians, skin, and flesh had been tempered to a level that perfectly matched his bones.
With a series of cracking sounds.
"Peak of the third rank!"
Qin Fengqing slowly opened his eyes and murmured, "Finally, I've reached the peak of the third rank. The next step is to break through to the fourth rank. However, I still need to consolidate my realm after breaking through to the peak of the third rank. I can't rush it."
Having already broken through, Qin Fengqing didn't linger any longer and went straight out of the energy room.
As soon as he stepped out of the gate, he saw several students from Magic Martial Arts University excitedly discussing something he didn't recognize. Qin Fengqing vaguely remembered them; they were students from the same year as him.
Upon seeing Qin Fengqing, the group excitedly held up the paper in their hands and exclaimed, "Fengqing, look! This is the newly released Rank 3 ranking list, and you've taken first place!"
Based on the timeline, Qin Fengqing has indeed been in the underground cave for almost a month.
Upon hearing this, Qin Fengqing took the paper and glanced at it.
"Qin Fengqing, a 22-year-old third-year student at Magic Martial Arts University, is a high-level third-rank martial artist."
Rank: First place
Peak achievements: Within 30 days, he killed one peak fifth-rank martial artist, three early fifth-rank martial artists, and over a hundred fourth-rank martial artists.
"Yao Chengjun, a 21-year-old sophomore at the First Military Academy, is a peak third-rank martial artist."
Rank: Second place
Peak performance: Surrounded by enemies, he killed one peak fourth-rank martial artist and three high-rank fourth-rank martial artists.
"Li Hansong..."
Wang Jinyang...
Peak performance: Killed two high-level fourth-rank martial artists.
......
The release of this ranking immediately caused quite a stir within the Wuhan University community.
The achievements of Yao Chengjun, Li Hansong, and Wang Jinyang alone are astonishing, not to mention Qin Fengqing's high-level third-rank skill in killing a peak fifth-rank expert.
No one doubted that Qin Fengqing had lied about his battle achievements, because in China, lying about battle achievements is a serious crime, so Qin Fengqing's battle achievements must be true without a doubt.
Qin Fengqing curled her lips after looking at the list. It was obvious that Old Wang and his two buddies had better records that weren't recorded.
The three of them, all at the peak of the third rank, certainly possessed blood and qi exceeding the upper limit of ordinary martial artists. In a life-or-death battle, they could even fight at the initial stage of the fifth rank.
However, Qin Fengqing didn't pay much attention to it. After returning the list to the group, he planned to return to Magic Martial Arts University.
......
They quickly returned to Magic Martial Arts Academy.
Upon arriving at the main gate of Magic Martial Arts University, Qin Fengqing saw a familiar figure standing in front of the school gate, lost in thought.
Looking at that familiar figure, Qin Fengqing remembered that this time was the time when she first met Fang Ping in her previous life.
Even in his past life, he never imagined that the junior student who stood in a daze at the school gate would later become humanity's hope.
Qin Fengqing then walked towards Fang Ping.
......
"Do Wuhan University students travel by aircraft carrier?"
Standing at the school gate, Fang Ping couldn't help but mutter a sentence.
Fang Ping only heard someone behind him say with a hint of amusement, "Shocking, isn't it?"
Fang Ping turned his head and saw a young man about his age standing to his left behind him.
The young man had delicate features, slightly long hair, and a smile on his face.
What caught Fang Ping's attention was not the appearance of the young man's hand, but the sheathless longsword he was holding. The longsword was covered with many faint scratches from battles, and was also covered with bloodstains that had not yet been wiped clean.
Qin Fengqing smiled: "A freshman?"
After thinking for a moment, Fang Ping calmly said, "My blood energy exceeds 180 calories, so guessing that I'm a freshman at Shanghai Martial Arts University shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
"Haha, that seems to be true." Qin Fengqing laughed immediately.
Normally, Fang Ping judges other people's strength by the intensity of their qi and blood. However, with the young man in front of him, Fang Ping could only sense that his body contained extremely powerful qi and blood, but he could not perceive his specific strength.
"May I ask who you are, senior?"
"Qin Fengqing, a third-year student at the Weaponry Academy of Shanghai Martial Arts University!"
At this moment, there were other students outside the Magic Martial Arts School. When they saw that it was Qin Fengqing, they all began to stir.
"Is that Qin Fengqing, the senior? He's so handsome!"
"Yeah! Not only is he handsome, but he's also incredibly strong."
"I heard he's only at the third rank right now."
