Chapter 350

The Global Freshman Competition has come to an end!

But its heat is still spreading, and countless freshmen globally have learned Lin Qi's name.

Everyone knows that Xia Guo has produced another top-tier genius who has created a historical record.

In Xia Guo, ordinary people might not know Lin Qi's name, but every freshman in any martial arts university knows Lin Qi.

His fame has gone up another level; sophomores, juniors, and even seniors know him.

Not only that, his fame has already blown onto the battlefield like a gust of wind.

Many soldiers and even social martial artists know that their country has produced a super genius named "Lin Qi" who swept through the geniuses of other countries!

Such things made them feel their blood boiling; when they were fighting disaster beasts, they inexplicably felt power surging in their hearts.

……

In the headquarters of the Imperial Capital Red Dome Martial Arts Hall, a bullet has been flying for over a year.

In a small conference room, an emergency high-level meeting was held.

As the Southern Inspector, the Eighth Realm martial artist Meng Wu, with distinct features, a firm face, and a burly figure, presided over this meeting.

At the round conference table sat the high-level leaders located at the headquarters.

On the dark surface of the table, a tall, cold-tempered woman was projected!

"Who could have thought that an S-rank genius from back then would now completely exceed our imagination."

"At the National Freshman Competition, he defeated awakened geniuses!"

"At the Global Freshman Competition, he even consecutively defeated SS-rank geniuses who had mastered minor divine abilities!"

"How was he compared to Li Zehao back then? Tsk tsk……" someone laughed and sighed.

The words were sarcastic, and several leaders immediately stopped talking.

Meng Wu was also quite embarrassed; to be honest, he also had responsibility for what happened back then.

This time, with Lin Qi winning the Global Freshman Competition championship, he immediately had an ominous feeling; his position seemed to have become precarious.

"Zhang Tai is truly damnable!" someone cursed angrily.

"People are already dead; it's useless to curse anymore!" someone said after hearing this.

"Last month, on the Beijiang battlefield, Zhang Tai was slapped into meat paste by an eight-level disaster beast, the Jin Gang Tiger; he couldn't be more dead!" someone said.

Others looked strange after hearing this; so he was dead?

At this time, the cold woman projected slowly spoke:

"Regarding Lin Qi's matter, I have already received the information from the Profound Heaven Shanyu Wuda and the Tianhai Red Dome Martial Arts Branch regarding upgrading to an SS-rank contract!"

"I have no authority to handle this matter; wait for the Vice Manager to return to handle it!"

"I came here today to announce several personnel appointments: regarding the dismissal of Qi Yao, the head of the inspection department, to be replaced by Jiang Weifeng……"

She dismissed several high-level officials in one breath, and some were directly demoted.

The faces of many of them immediately turned pale!

Even though they were all high-level martial artists, facing the woman's words, they didn't dare to raise any objections.

Many people immediately felt nervous; they all knew this was settling old scores!

The incident with Lin Qi back then only involved a portion of people, and he was only an S-rank genius, so things didn't go too deep.

Now, he is an existence who defeated SS-rank geniuses, and his status has become completely different after the Global Freshman Competition.

His future is limitless; he is a true Ninth Realm seedling.

Now the high-level officials of Xia Guo naturally have to come out and start flipping through old accounts.

After hearing the personnel changes and not hearing his own name, Meng Wu felt relieved.

This scene was seen by the cold woman, who revealed a disdainful smile and thought to herself: "This is just the beginning……"

"Are there any other questions?" she spoke again.

"None, Special Envoy Qin!" Meng Wu said with a smile.

After he finished speaking, Special Envoy Qin nodded and immediately dissipated into light particles.

Others also breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, because of the genius Lin Qi, the fates of who knows how many people in their headquarters were completely changed; this was a huge change that hadn't happened in ten years!

Martial Arts Era 2047, May 2nd

Profound Heaven Shanyu Wuda, Sixth Academy

The day after the Global Freshman Competition ended, all students returned to their normal study life.

Lin Qi sat on his electric car, heading to Cangjing Building; students he met along the way would take the initiative to greet him.

Lin Qi also nodded in response one by one.

In the Profound Heaven Sect, his status was already the highest; no matter how strong he was, everyone's attitude was just more worshipful.

A moment later, the black electric car he was sitting on arrived at its destination.

Looking at the building in front of him that looked like a blue giant whale emerging from the sea, he walked in slowly!

A moment later, the elevator door on the top floor opened.

Lin Qi walked out of it and came to the Dean's office, familiar with the path.

"Beep!"

The office door opened automatically; in the office that looked like an aquarium, a figure in a white robe sat at the desk processing matters.

"Lin Qi, sit down and wait a moment first!"

Liu Yuanzhang said.

Lin Qi nodded; his gaze looked at the floor, where two things attracted his attention.

He saw that on the smooth floor, there were two metal boxes emitting a metallic luster, one a cube, and another a cuboid shape.

Could this be his reward this time? It looks like it's not small at all!

A moment later, Liu Yuanzhang stood up and came to the sofa to start making tea.

"Sorry, I've been too busy these past few days!"

Liu Yuanzhang apologized.

"It's fine!" Lin Qi shook his head.

Liu Yuanzhang spoke slowly with a smile: "In the Global Freshman Competition, you performed too well!"

"Yesterday, many leaders who didn't think highly of you were slapped in the face."

"I also feel happy in my heart!"

Lin Qi also revealed a smile; being slapped in the face was normal, after all, he was just an "unawakened" genius.

"You have already shown talent far exceeding S-rank awakened geniuses, and SS-rank geniuses are no match for you."

"Principal Xu, several leaders, and I have reached a consensus to spare no effort in finding an Awakening Fruit for you." Hearing this, Lin Qi was shocked; an Awakening Fruit?

An Awakening Fruit, any martial artist knows it; its fame is simply too great.

Eating it gives a 20% chance to awaken, making countless martial artists flock to it.

Who hasn't fantasized about obtaining an Awakening Fruit when they were young and becoming a top-tier genius?

He was the same!

But Awakening Fruits are extremely rare, which leads to high prices, so they could only think about it.

"Gurgle gurgle~" The kettle was steaming.

Liu Yuanzhang continued:

"Awakening Fruits are scarce; in the decades since we humans entered another world, there have been fewer than a hundred recorded Awakening Fruits."

"With the connections of our Profound Heaven Shanyu Wuda, we can only guarantee to find an Awakening Fruit for you within two years at any cost."

"Free?" Lin Qi asked.

Liu Yuanzhang nodded and confirmed: "Free!"

!

"This is the school's cultivation of a genius like you!"

"If you don't awaken, it's a loss for the entire Xia Guo."

"The real price of an Awakening Fruit is about 500 million Xia Guo currency, but things are valued for their rarity; due to scarcity, its price can even soar to 700, 800 million, or even 1 billion Xia Guo currency!"

Lin Qi exhaled; that is to say, he would definitely get an Awakening Fruit within two years.

Giving an Awakening Fruit worth hundreds of millions for free!

He didn't say that he would definitely awaken a special ability in the next month or two.

Because the Awakening Fruit was simply too tempting.

If he could get the Awakening Fruit before he awakened, he would make a huge profit.

There might be a chance to fleece this wool.

"Alright, let's stop here about the Awakening Fruit."

Liu Yuanzhang handed the brewed hot tea to Lin Qi and said:

"I called you here today to give you the reward for the Global Freshman Competition championship!"

Lin Qi's eyes lit up; the reward he wanted most had arrived.

"For most contestants, they can only get prize money."

"But for genius contestants who can enter the semi-finals, they can not only get prize money but also generous grand prizes."

"A grand gift more valuable than the prize money!"

After Liu Yuanzhang sipped the hot tea, he stood up and came to the metal box beside him.

"Beep!"

He pressed his hand on the box, and a green light scanned over it, quickly turning red.

The black metal box slowly opened, revealing the things inside.

Lin Qi's gaze looked over; he was very familiar with the things packed in the metal box.

"This is a combat suit……?"

In his eyes, it was a jet-black combat suit!

"That's right!"

Liu Yuanzhang nodded and lifted the black jacket from it.

"This is a full set of Tier 6 combat suit!"

Lin Qi was shocked; a Tier 6 combat suit, the price of this was not cheap.

"As you know, for a full set of combat suit, the higher the tier, the more raw materials are needed, and the manufacturing difficulty is higher."

"At the same time, the ability to defend against disaster beast tearing is also constantly improving."

"Of course, the price is also extremely expensive."

"A set of Tier 6 combat suit includes a jacket, boots, underwear, and a defensive vest."

"Normally, the defensive vest is an A-rank defensive vest, but we have raised it by one level, which is an S-rank defensive vest."

"The full set of combat suit is 130 million Xia Guo currency; the jacket, boots, and underwear total 80 million Xia Guo currency, and the S-rank defensive vest is worth 50 million Xia Guo currency!"

Lin Qi listened from the side, feeling shocked.

What he was currently using was only a Tier 3 combat suit, and he was wearing an A-rank defensive vest inside.

The prices were all around 10 million, totaling about 20 million.

But the price of the Tier 6 combat suit and S-rank defensive vest in front of him had increased by a staggering 6 times.

Once he put it on, his safety performance when fighting disaster beasts in the wild would be significantly improved.

"A Tier 6 combat suit can effectively prevent tearing from Tier 6 disaster beasts."

"And the S-rank defensive vest is different; it can effectively defend against tearing from Tier 7 disaster beasts."

Liu Yuanzhang introduced it with a smile.

Lin Qi nodded; these were all genuine high-level equipment, equipment that only Sixth Realm martial artists, or even Seventh Realm martial artists, could possess.

"There is one more piece of equipment!"

Liu Yuanzhang smiled again and opened another cuboid-shaped metal box.

"Beep!"

The box opened, and a cold glint flashed before Lin Qi's eyes!

He looked closely and saw a spear embedded inside, forged entirely in black, inlaid with complex white-gold patterns, forming the shape of a tiger head.

It was the Level 9 disaster beast, the Platinum Evil Tiger!

The sharp spear tip was like its sharp tiger teeth.

"This is the Tier 6 weapon rewarded to you, the Evil Tiger Great Spear, 2.7 meters long and weighing 500 kilograms!"

"A weapon forged from 60% Delta alloy combined with other precious metals!"

Liu Yuanzhang said as he took out the Evil Tiger Great Spear.

"Buzz!"

He just waved it simply, but Lin Qi clearly heard the buzzing sound coming from the spear body.

The sharp spear tip sliced through the air, and the air was cut like paper!

Lin Qi could already feel the sharpness of this long spear!

This was a long spear several levels stronger than a Tier 3 weapon; he liked it at first sight.

Top-tier weapons could also enhance the strength of their possessor.
