Two hours later,
Lu Xiaobai and his group found another mechanical octopus.
To their surprise, there were already people near the octopus, and they were fighting against Megastar Sharks!
"Huh? A Megastar Shark above level 10?"
Lu Xiaobai's expression shifted slightly, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He saw three students teaming up with the mechanical octopus, completely suppressing a Megastar Shark King.
Unlike Lu Xiaobai's assisting tactics, the combat power displayed by these three was quite impressive, at least inflicting serious injuries on the Megastar Shark King...
"The vitality of all three of them is probably above 9.5..."
Lu Xiaobai roughly judged their strength from their attacks.
"Brother Lu, these are people from Yuanchu Middle School. They have taken first place in most of the previous competitions..."
"No wonder..."
Lu Xiaobai nodded.
The combat power of these three was not weaker than Lin Xue'er and her brother in the slightest. Moreover, they seemed extremely coordinated, obviously having undergone professional training. By joining forces, they could even go head-to-head with the Megastar Shark King...
Not to mention there was a mechanical octopus helping to suppress it!
Sure enough,
in just a few minutes, the Megastar Shark King was slain on the spot.
The three ignored Lu Xiaobai and his group, instead wielding their blades to carve up the Megastar Shark King's corpse, causing copious amounts of blood to gush out.
Around them lay the shriveled corpses of seven or eight Megastar Sharks, completely drained of their blood!
Clearly, the monster-luring method used by these three was similar to Lu Xiaobai's, just not as efficient...
"Young Master Lu..."
After finishing their task, the three finally turned their gazes toward Lu Xiaobai and the others, their eyes full of vigilance.
Had it been anyone else from Xingguang Middle School, they would not have allowed them to watch and would have long since eliminated them.
However, the lethal weapons Lu Xiaobai had displayed earlier had truly frightened them...
As the saying goes, competition comes second, life comes first.
Naturally, they didn't dare to offend him...
Lu Xiaobai nodded and said with a smile:
"Your efficiency in luring monsters is too low. Let me help you out."
"Huh?"
The three looked puzzled, but in the next second, their expressions jolted with shock and bewilderment.
They saw Lu Xiaobai loosen the restraints of his diving suit, and his limbs instantly suffered severe trauma, causing massive amounts of blood to spread out!
Compared to the blood of Megastar Sharks, the blood of a Star Martial Artist was much more tempting...
Especially since Lu Xiaobai had grown up eating all kinds of rare supplements, his blood was probably almost as enticing as the flesh of the Tang Monk...
In less than an hour,
dozens of Megastar Sharks had surrounded them, all bearing greedy expressions.
The three from Yuanchu Middle School were shocked. They hadn't expected his luring method to be so efficient, but wasn't the price a bit too high...?
Roar!
Just then, another group of level 9 Megastar Sharks approached.
The shock on the three's faces vanished, replaced by solemnity.
"Young Master Lu..."
They wanted to remind him not to lure too many, but looking at his injuries, there was no sign of the bleeding stopping at all...
The three looked speechless, wanting to speak but not quite daring to.
What was the point of luring so many? With just the few of them, it would be impossible to handle...
Lu Xiaobai ignored them and continued to bleed himself.
As time passed,
more and more Megastar Sharks gathered around, eventually totaling in the hundreds. Although there were no level 10 Shark Kings, there was a considerable number of level 9 Megastar Sharks...
At this moment,
Xia Xing and the other two tightly clung to the mechanical octopus, not daring to move half a meter away. They had completely lost their previous tough-guy image.
Are you kidding me? Hundreds of Megastar Sharks were enough to swallow them whole, leaving not even a single hair behind...
"Points, they are all my points!"
Lu Xiaobai licked his lips, his eyes filled with excitement, as if he could already see thousands of points rolling into his account...
"No way, this is too arrogant..."
Xia Xing and the other two exchanged glances and couldn't help but mutter complaints under their breath.
The combined combat power of the three of them could be considered top-tier among intern Star Martial Artists, yet they still didn't dare to provoke these hundreds of Megastar Sharks.
Meanwhile, this guy looked like he was about to slaughter the entire school of Megastar Sharks. Did he really think he was a formal Star Martial Artist who had mastered combat star skills?!
"Hmm?"
Lu Xiaobai's expression shifted slightly, seemingly having heard their muttering, and he said with a smile:
"Arrogance requires backup hidden energy, and my big brother happens to have it!"
"??"
Xia Xing and the other two were slightly taken aback, seemingly not understanding.
"Off you go!"
Lu Xiaobai didn't delay any longer. He immediately threw out the core energy he had just acquired, landing it directly in the middle of the Megastar Sharks.
Whoosh!
An arrow instantly pierced through the seawater, steadily shooting straight through the core energy!
This time, he actually hit the bullseye in one shot!
Boom—
In an instant,
terrifying energy overflowed in all directions.
The pupils of Xia Xing and the other two contracted, their eyes filled with shock as they hastily backed away.
Fortunately, the mechanical octopus beneath them automatically activated its defense mode, blocking the terrifying explosion coming from the front!
After a long while,
the violent commotion caused by the explosion finally ceased.
"What the hell was that?!"
The three exchanged glances and then looked forward, instantly left dumbfounded, seemingly unable to believe what they were seeing.
The hundreds of Megastar Sharks were devoid of life, just floating there in the seawater. All of them were reduced to a bloody pulp, looking incredibly miserable...
[Killed Level 9 Vitality Megastar Shark, obtained 30 points]
[Killed Level 9 Vitality Megastar Shark, obtained 30 points]
...
Right at this moment, a flurry of rapid electronic beeps echoed out.
Xia Xing and the other two were jolted, all looking toward the diving suit on Lu Xiaobai.
With so many Megastar Sharks, just how many damn points was he getting!
After a long while,
the electronic beeps finally stopped.
Xia Xing and the other two went from initial shock to gradual numbness, no longer knowing what to say...
"So satisfying!"
Lu Xiaobai watched the points on his suit skyrocket, his face covered in a wide smile.
He refused to believe anyone could snatch first place from him now!
At this time,
Xia Xing recovered from his numbness and spoke up:
"Young Master Lu, did you really bring that liquid bomb in here?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiaobai smiled and said:
"Stop joking. The competition rules state that no foreign objects can be brought in. Once violated, all points are cleared. What would be the point of me doing that?"
Xia Xing and the other two were stunned.
What did he mean? This wasn't a liquid bomb he brought in?!
"This is called using local materials!"
Lu Xiaobai chuckled, then crouched down and placed his hand over the head of the mechanical octopus beneath him.
The next second,
a new energy core appeared in his hand once again,
and the mechanical octopus beneath his feet naturally lost power and began to sink continuously...
"You... this..."
Xia Xing and the other two were deeply shaken, their eyes full of disbelief.
Holy crap, the source of his bombs was actually the energy core of the mechanical octopus?!
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
