Jingcheng College, tutor’s residential area.
"Hmph! Your contribution is not enough! You've only been enrolled for a few days, what contribution do you want?" Li Wenyan angrily crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it out.
Beside him, Zhang Baili sighed deeply: "You and I both know that insufficient contribution is just an excuse. As long as Li Xuan has not made clear achievements for the academy, the dean and his faction will always have reason to refuse to list Li Xuan as a demon genius."
After discussion among the top management of the academy, they have already issued a decision on Li Xuan's application to be nominated as a genius. They rejected it on the grounds that his contribution was insufficient.
After Zhang Baili got the news, he immediately came to inform Li Wenyan.
In the past, as long as an applicant had both strong talent and strength, his/her application would be approved. These were the only two criteria for measuring a genius.
But this time, the college's top management rejected him on the grounds of insufficient contribution. It was obvious that Li Xuan's talent and strength had reached a level that was difficult for freshmen to achieve.
"The academic faction is truly shameless this time, even coming up with such an excuse! What contribution can a freshman make to the academy?"
This time, even Zhang Baili couldn't stand it anymore.
Li Wenyan sat on his recliner, pondering for a long time before an idea flashed across his mind: "I got it! I've thought of a way to make them embarrassed to refuse!"
"What method?"
Zhang Baili looked up and asked.
Li Wenyan sat up straight from the recliner and said to him seriously, "Let Li Xuan beat up those guys who have been classified as evil geniuses!"
"A true genius has been defeated by him. I wonder if the academics still have the nerve to refuse him."
Zhang Baili's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this: "Is this your method?"
"Well, it's feasible!"
Li Wenyan even wanted to praise himself.
Haha...Zhang Baili already felt a little regretful and asked this crazy guy for help.
"First of all, those monstrous geniuses are at worst the strongest among the juniors. Although Li Xuan can be considered a pervert among the freshmen and sophomores, he still has some gaps to go."
Zhang Baili was afraid that Li Wenyan would really let Li Xuan do this, so he could only analyze it rationally, "Secondly, if you let Li Xuan challenge the evil genius, even if he wins, doesn't that also make enemies for Li Xuan?"
"These monstrous geniuses either have aristocratic family backgrounds, or have long been invested in by guilds or chambers of commerce, and are considered their people."
It can be said that behind every evil genius there is a powerful force that is binding them. While protecting them, they also hope that after they grow into strong people in the future, they will give feedback to their own powerful forces, forming a win-win situation.
Li Wenyan, however, was completely unconcerned: "So what if I've offended them? In the current situation, the key is to improve ourselves as quickly as possible. Who knows, in a year or two, the demons might invade en masse."
Hearing this, Zhang Baili also frowned. As a seventh-level strongman, he was very clear about the current situation facing China and even the human race.
The demons are growing stronger and stronger on the battlefield of the demon world, while the strong men of the human race are constantly being consumed. The speed at which the strong men grow is far less than the number of sacrifices and consumption.
As a result, on the battlefield of the Demon Realm, the human race retreated again and again, and there were no longer many strong people who could defend the original territory.
It is only a matter of time before the demons invade on a large scale.
At this moment, he also understood Li Wenyan's idea. Indeed, at this time, trying one's best to improve is the right thing to do, regardless of whether he offends him or not.
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door, and Li Xuan walked in with a look of joy on his face: "Teacher, I have completed the Misty Forest raid! I also got the blessing!"
“Haha, good!”
A smile appeared on Li Wenyan's face. He was surprised and happy that Li Xuan could complete it within the time limit.
He had deliberately exaggerated the time limit to three days, but he didn't expect that Li Xuan actually did it, and he was so lucky that he was blessed.
"The Misty Forest raid? The one in the junior campus?" Zhang Baili couldn't help but ask.
"Director Zhang, you're here too?"
Li Xuan then noticed Zhang Baili standing beside him, and nodded, "Yes, it's the Misty Forest on the third campus."
hiss!
Zhang Baili took a deep breath. He had just defeated Xiao Ce a few days ago, and now he could actually clear the third campus group. That required at least the strength of the middle fourth level.
This rate of improvement is really shocking.
Li Xuan looked at Li Wenyan expectantly. The teacher said that after completing the goal, he would tell him some of the things that happened.
Li Wenyan lay back on the recliner, closed his eyes and said, "Your father's name is Li Wenhan. He is of the same generation as me and is also an eighth-level expert."
"Eighth level?"
Li Xuan was a little stunned.
The tenth level is the peak of combat power, the ninth level is the realm that only some old monsters or leaders of chambers of commerce and guilds can reach, and the eighth level is already considered a high-level figure in China.
He originally thought that his father was at most a sixth or seventh level, so that after his death, he and his aunt would not be taken seriously.
Zhang Baili was also a little surprised. There were quite a few eighth-level strongmen in the capital. If Li Wenyan had not voluntarily withdrawn from the Li family and came to the Capital Academy to retire early.
He will now inevitably become the leader in a certain field of the Li family and become a decision-maker of the Li family.
Unexpectedly, Li Xuan's father was also like this, and when Li Wenyan said this, he didn't care at all that I was listening.
"Yes, he is an eighth-rank cultivator. Back then, there were only five eighth-rank cultivators in the Li family, and your father was the youngest and most promising of them."
Li Wenyan's tone suddenly became a little sad.
"Then how did he die?"
Li Xuan was even more puzzled. If that was the case, then his father should have been a very important figure in the Li family at that time.
"He died in the demon invasion in the southern part of the capital!" Li Wenyan opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes.
The demons are invading... Li Xuan touched his chin.
“Yes…it’s him!”
Zhang Baili's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he knew who Li Xuan's father was.
Li Xuan turned his head to look at him, and the teacher's voice sounded again.
"Eighteen years ago, on the outskirts of the southern capital, the passage to the Demon Realm battlefield suddenly opened without warning, and a large number of demons poured out, including eighth-level demons."
As he spoke, Li Wenyan turned back to look at Li Xuan: "Do you know the damage that an eighth-level demon can cause?"
Li Xuan shook his head slightly. He was still too far away from the eighth level, but with his current strength, the damage he could cause was terrifying enough, not to mention the eighth level.
"If an eighth-rank demon attacked, they could have destroyed most of the buildings in the capital in an instant, and countless ordinary people would have died. And your father happened to be nearby at the time."
Li Wenyan took out another sip from the wine flask. "Your father single-handedly fought against nine eighth-rank demons. Until his death, he never let a single demon escape from the passage. He held out until the elders guarding the capital arrived."
Although his narration was very brief, Li Xuan could still recall the heroic scene in his mind.
