Chapter 62

Su Ming teleported back to the Heavenly Tower Society.

Arriving at the mission hall, there weren't many people there now.

After all, the rookie wave had passed, and the flow of people had returned to normal.

"Perfect, it's convenient to turn in the mission."

Su Ming thought coldly. ===== CHAPTER 154 =====

"It's just a pity that the air isn't as fresh as in the forest."

Su Ming said to himself.

Then his thoughts stirred.

Consuming a bit of mental energy, he healed all the wounds on his body.

He activated his Healing Factor bloodline.

When he was poisoned by the snake, he had sliced off a piece of flesh from his elbow; now, the flesh there was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Soon, it was completely restored.

The bloodline power would operate autonomously at all times, but active stimulation would make it heal faster.

The gray robe of the Shadow Sword set had strong defensive capabilities.

The only drawback was that it didn't provide full-body coverage, so he still had some injuries.

But the rest of the venom and blood had been blocked by the Shadow Sword coat.

That was why Su Ming's injuries were so light.

He also owed it to this set of Platinum-tier equipment.

If it were an ordinary set, it would have been easily corroded by the snake venom.

Afterward, he walked quickly toward the mission hall.

Arriving at the window where he had accepted the mission, Su Ming's expression was calm.

"I need to process some business," he said.

Inside the hall, there were still some player squads that hadn't dispersed, sparse and scattered.

The people around slowly turned their heads to look over.

"Is that... Su Ming?"

"Su Ming, the Sword Controller from Xuanjing City, ten-star talent, a recent figure of interest."

"I heard he accepted a D-level mission; once he completes it, he'll be a Platinum-tier hunter?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true; I saw it with my own eyes at the time."

People from several squads whispered.

Ten-star talent, regardless of the strength of the profession, is an extremely rare genius.

So Su Ming's name was known to almost every rookie, not just in Xuanjing City, but in the entire Zhongchuan Province.

Everyone was a bit surprised.

A rookie daring to accept a D-level mission, and it looked like he didn't have a squad; he was a lone wolf.

It was truly a bit arrogant.

"This little handsome guy seems to be overestimating his own strength a bit; ten-star talent is strong, but a D-level mission requires dealing with Second Rank monsters... it's still too difficult."

In the crowd, a female player with a hot figure, wearing black silk velvet stockings, said.

She stood in the distance, her eyes playful, looking at Su Ming with deep meaning.

Her words drew a chorus of agreement.

"Miss Mo is very right."

"I think so too, indeed."

People nodded, their expressions serious.

"He wants to reach the sky in one step and be ranked directly as a Platinum-tier hunter; he has great ambition, and I have to admit, I admire him."

A young man with a cold gaze, wearing white clothes and carrying a ruler on his back, said.

"I look forward to him leaving a brilliant mark in the history of the Dragon Country in the future."

Speaking of this, a hint of hidden gravity appeared in his eyes.

Perhaps one day, he would also have a battle with Su Ming.

He actually didn't want internal strife; he only wanted to kill demons and monsters to let the Dragon Country expand its territory.

His ambition was to lead the entire human race to strength; he wanted to protect all weak people.

But he knew that resources were limited.

The human race is in the cracks of the myriad race struggle, and their current situation is not good; the Dragon Country also doesn't have many resources.

If geniuses want to become stronger, they need to constantly fight and seize resources.

Perhaps it won't be a life-and-death battle, maybe just a fight in some competition, but it will happen eventually.

He... does not want to lose.

Mo Mei looked at him and smiled slightly, the charm in her eyes not restrained at all.

"Hehe, Shen Baiyi, you're joking; with your strength, even I couldn't last a few moves."

"Su Ming being able to reach level 16 in the rookie dungeon certainly shows he has his own methods, and his strength won't be weak; this achievement can be called unprecedented."

"But leveling up fast doesn't mean combat power is strong."

"Profession is the foundation of everything."

"A Sword Controller's combat power in the early stages is like heaven and earth compared to your Exorcist."

She had a faint fragrance on her, born with a charming bone.

She was also a seven-star genius, and the family power behind her was also very strong.

But in her words, there was a hint of her actively showing weakness to Shen Baiyi.

However, no one around refuted or was surprised.

Because Shen Baiyi's talent was indeed terrifying, and it had long been known to all.

Even if Mo Mei didn't say it, everyone knew she couldn't beat Shen Baiyi.

He deserved it.

Ten-star Exorcist; with this talent and profession, he could sweep through everything in the early stages.

All the geniuses in Zhongchuan Province paled in comparison to him.

Provincial top-scorer level!

Shen Baiyi was expressionless upon hearing her words.

He couldn't be bothered to reply at all.

His gaze was like iron; at this moment, he was thinking in his heart.

Opportunity?

How ridiculous.

Family descendants like Mo Mei, who are high above, really love to look down on people.

She hasn't experienced hardship; her whole life has been arranged by her family.

How could she know how difficult it is for an ordinary person to get ahead!

That Su Ming, an orphan without a family, was able to reach level sixteen in the rookie dungeon.

What kind of persistence, effort, suffering, and obstacles did he have to endure to achieve this result?

There must have been opportunity, but it wasn't all about opportunity.

Although Shen Baiyi was the strongest person here, he was also the one who least underestimated Su Ming.

Shen Baiyi and Su Ming were so similar, so he felt a sense of sympathy for him.

It was this calmness, caution, and clear insight into the situation, combined with his talent, that created him, Shen Baiyi.

He had extreme calmness and clarity.

His insight into all things was far more acute than his peers.

Mo Mei smiled seductively and said slowly.

"Sword Controller Su Ming... although he is handsome, whether he is just a showpiece still needs the test of time."

"You don't need to be in such a hurry to treat him as an opponent."

"Shen Baiyi, you have many enemies now; you'd better take care of yourself first." ===== CHAPTER 155 =====
