You've met Xu Jingming? Tell us, what's his ability?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the exam hall, when the others heard Zhou Mingyang had encountered Xu Jingming, they immediately became interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't confirm the type of ability, but his physique is extremely strong—his blood value is at least 180 points.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Mingyang shook his head, voicing his speculation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"180 blood points? No wonder he's so fierce.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald boy muttered in amazement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary awakened individuals have only about 100 blood points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even we, first-rank lower-tier ability users, only have around 130 blood points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With such a robust physique, he's almost certainly a Qianghuaxi  ability user.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if his ability enhanced his physique, reaching this level of blood value is still impressive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long-haired boy feigned indifference, but his tone carried a hint of bitterness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, Xu Jingming is still just an awakened individual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Mingyang shook his head again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not deny the long-haired boy’s guess that Xu Jingming possessed a  Qianghuaxi  ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he thought the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An awakened individual?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The petite girl with the great sword gasped, \"So we, actual ability users, can't even match an awakened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her words instantly silenced everyone present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, Zhou Mingyang sighed, \"I have to say, Meng Di, you still have the same uncanny knack for hitting the nail on the head.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Di was the only girl among them, an awakened with a B-grade  Qianghuaxi  ability, currently ranked fourth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just got startled, that's all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Di stuck out her tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her adorable appearance clashed sharply with the great sword she carried, but Zhou Mingyang and the others were already used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Jingming is truly a monster—still just an awakened and already this strong...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bald boy’s expression was complex; after a pause, he added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what should we do now? There’s still about an hour and a half left until the Wu Ke exam ends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The core zone’s ferocious beasts have been wiped out—do we have to go back to the central zone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the Wu Ke exam, everyone scrambles to kill as many ferocious beasts as possible to earn more points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They certainly couldn’t afford to idle away the remaining hour and a half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’ll take at least half an hour just to reach the central zone—too much time wasted on the way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, the central zone mostly has peak non-tier ferocious beasts, and the points from killing them aren’t high.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s thought, Zhou Mingyang said, \"Rather than returning to the central zone, let’s head straight for the core zone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The core zone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ferocious beasts in the core zone are all at least first-rank upper-tier, some even second-rank beast kings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as first-rank lower-tier ability users, entering such a zone would put their lives at great risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Entering the core zone alone is suicide, but if all four of us combine forces, we might stand a chance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hesitating, the bald boy finally nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wu Ke exam decides your entire future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Granted, for us ability users, failing the Wu Ke exam isn’t catastrophic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if we can get into a better university, why not try?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m fine with it,\" the petite girl Meng Di grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems this is our only option,\" the long-haired boy also nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, let’s move out then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Mingyang was decisive; once the plan was set, he led the three off at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a ruined town, somewhere in the core zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming walked down the road, his long spear slung across his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This had once been an urban street, but now the concrete was cracked, weeds had reclaimed it, and everything looked desolate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The buildings and shops on either side were equally dilapidated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Xu Jingming paid no attention to his surroundings—his focus was entirely on his system panel:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Level】: Awakened\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ability】: Purple Thunder Divine Lightning (S)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Physique】: 181 Blood (++)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Spirit】: 182 He (++)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Skills】: Spear Technique (Advanced+), Lightning Wind Break (Beginner+)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ability Points】: 2413\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming’s eyes gleamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were all his gains since entering the core zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a massive amount of ability points was nothing short of astonishing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the plus sign still hadn’t appeared after his level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This confirmed his suspicion: he hadn’t yet learned an ability cultivation method, so he couldn’t transform into an ability user.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But now, I’ve killed off most of the ferocious beasts in the core zone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To earn more ability points, I must go to the core zone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But there are second-rank beasts there—I need to strengthen myself first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming clicked the plus sign next to the skill 'Lightning Wind Break.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ability Points -100.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning Wind Break: Beginner → Intermediate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ability Points -200.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning Wind Break: Intermediate → Advanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming spent 300 ability points in one go, instantly upgrading the skill to Advanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, the technique felt as familiar as if he’d practiced it thousands of times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now I’m more confident I can handle that second-rank beast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he had many ability points, Xu Jingming hadn’t extravagantly spent them to boost his base stats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d only raised his blood value to 180 at the start, and now upgraded this skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d been extremely frugal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, ability points were precious—after the Wu Ke exam, such opportunities to harvest them would vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other, once he entered an ability user university, these points would have far greater uses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, his current strength was already sufficient to handle the second-rank beasts in the core zone—no further upgrades were needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing his point allocation, he downed the last two energy bars in his backpack to restore his stamina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming checked his map, then strode resolutely toward the core zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the entire Wu Ke exam map, the core zone was tiny—barely a dot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in reality, it wasn’t just a dot—it was an entire residential complex!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Jinse Garden complex, where dozens of ferocious beasts now dwelled on the open grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike ordinary beast groups, these creatures were of different species: Shadow Cats, Iron-Haired Boars, even a Unicorn Rhino.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keep in mind,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ferocious beasts were inherently violent, and different tribes often saw each other as prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For so many different species to coexist peacefully in one group, there must be a supreme beast king dominating them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that beast king was a massive gray bear crouched deep in the center of the open ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike ordinary gray bears, this one was enormous, like a tank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its eyes glowed crimson as blood, as if holding mountains of corpses and seas of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merely by resting there, it radiated a terrifying aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Zhou Mingyang’s group had arrived nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing atop a building, they looked down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they saw the gray bear below, their faces all changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a Bloodthirsty Rampage Bear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Mingyang’s expression darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were differences in strength even among ferocious beasts of the same rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, a Shadow Cat could never defeat a Unicorn Rhino, even if both were first-rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is racial suppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bloodthirsty Rampage Bear is also a famously rare lineage among ferocious beasts, extremely difficult to deal with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving aside its absurdly terrifying strength, even its thick, matted fur, knotted together across its entire body, is tougher than E-grade alloy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even missiles cannot easily shatter it!\u003C\u002Fp>",1227,"2026-06-21T05:33:57.936Z",1,"Qwen3-Next
