Ye Fengyue's mental state has been good these past two days. It is said that he found a very good weapon in the Tower of All Heavens yesterday. Although it is a weapon from a fantasy world, it is also suitable for his superpower. It is said to be roughly equivalent to a six-star mortal-level weapon in the superpower world, which can be said to be very powerful. Whether he uses it himself or sells it, he can get a good profit.

Han Wei has also made some progress these past few days. It is said that he was chosen by an old sect leader in a fantasy world and was taken in as a closed-door disciple to be taught. He kept the unique cultivation technique for three consecutive days.

The others also made progress, but it was clear that after a long period of continuous training, some people were amazing at the beginning, but lacked follow-up strength, and were obviously just flashes in the pan with no potential. On the other hand, some people have quietly caught up in the past few days. Several dark horses have emerged, who were not very noticeable in the class before, but have been improving more and more in the past few days, and are even becoming the backbone of the class.

The stories of everyone catching up and being overtaken in their cultivation were quite exciting to hear; at least Cui Hong himself was enjoying them immensely, even somewhat forgetting his own disappointed expression just moments before.

Guan Wen found it quite boring. The level of the people was too low, and listening to their experiences would not help him at all. Moreover, the gap between him and these people was too great, and he had no interest in comparing himself with them. Therefore, he naturally felt quite bored.

After talking for a while, Cui Hong suddenly realized that he had been reporting his personal cultivation progress to Guan Wen all these days, but Guan Wen hadn't mentioned what level he had reached for a long time.

Although Guan Wen had trained in the regular class, Cui Hong didn't think he would be a flash in the pan. After all, he had the foundation of a level 5 ability user, so how bad could he be?

So he asked, "By the way, Guan Wen, why have you been so quiet these past few days? You haven't told me anything about your cultivation progress. It would be good if you could share it with me so I can get some feedback."

"I've also made some progress recently, and I'm already at level nine," Guan Wen said casually.

"What? You've broken through to level nine!" Upon hearing this, Cui Hong was so surprised that his voice rose several decibels. As soon as he raised his voice, everyone around him heard it and turned their surprised gazes toward him.

Seeing everyone's gaze, Guan Wen gave an awkward grin.

It's worth noting that Ye Fengyue hasn't improved at all in the past few days. The person in the class who is closest to him is a level six ability user. That person is also a classmate who is quite close to Ye Fengyue. Every day, he keeps talking about how he must take Ye Fengyue as his goal and surpass him. However, before that person could even achieve his goal...

Guan Wen then announced that he had advanced to level nine, surpassing Ye Fengyue by two levels.

Guan Wen's true level was naturally many times higher than level nine, but in everyone's eyes, it was already an exaggerated thing that Guan Wen had improved to level nine in such a short period of time.

When Guan Wen defeated Ye Fengyue, everyone naturally thought he was stronger than Ye Fengyue. However, most people also thought he was only an eighth-level ability user, and that ninth-level seemed a bit exaggerated. But now that he really is a ninth-level ability user, everyone is naturally very surprised.

Upon hearing this, Feng Yue's gaze darkened, clearly feeling somewhat disappointed because Guan Wen was stronger than him.

"You're amazing, Guan Wen!" Cui Hong kept patting Guan Wen's shoulder and shouted, "You're really the best in our class now. To be honest, you're not that far behind the elites in the elite class. If you work hard, you might even be able to catch up with Hua Qingyue!"

Cui Hong's shouting made Guan Wen quite embarrassed. To be honest, he didn't expect that mentioning level nine would surprise these people. After all, he was used to his own level of over twenty, and level nine was not particularly strong in his eyes. But these people were students after all.

Moreover, there's no such high level among people of the same age, which is why Guan Wen's level seems so terrifying.

In the elite class, everyone was having morning self-study, but only one person absentmindedly looked up at the scenery outside the window. That person was Hua Qingyue.

Sitting to the side, Ye Ruqiu noticed her unusual demeanor and whispered, "Xiaohua, what's wrong? You seem distracted."

Upon hearing the voice, Hua Qingyue turned around and replied, "It's nothing, just a little pressure."

"Pressure?" Ye Ruqiu was taken aback when she heard Hua Qingyue say this. What pressure do you have as the top student in the senior year? Is there anyone who can surpass you? Your family background and talent simply crush everyone else.

"You're not feeling pressured because that mysterious genius's identity hasn't been revealed, are you?"

“No.” Hua Qingyue shook her head. Although she was the top student in her grade and was praised by many people as the top student in the whole school, she understood that a genius who could pass the 79th floor of the Battle Tower was beyond her imagination. Even the top geniuses from the elite schools in the capital were not enough to compare with her. How could she compare with such a monster?

Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?

The person she was thinking of wasn't him, but someone else.

Guan Wen.

Ever since he witnessed the duel between Guan Wen and Ye Fengyue in the dueling arena that day, Guan Wen's image has been constantly on his mind.
