Chapter 4: Martial Dao Prodigy Ning Yuan, is Ye Bai being shameless?

The queue of Martial Artists was startled, looking at the youth and discussing him in hushed tones.

It is common knowledge that the Three Great Alien Races each have their own strengths.

The Succubus Race is skilled in disguise and Charm.

The Beast Race, on the other hand, is simply and brutally powerful in their physical bodies!

They are also, at this current stage, the Alien Race with the most varieties and the largest population among the Three Great Alien Races, spreading across all areas outside the city and posing the greatest threat to humanity!

Even the low-grade Alien Beasts, the kind without much intelligence.

If a Martial Artist of the same grade fights them without having mastered a Martial Technique of the corresponding grade, the Alien Beast side is guaranteed to win!

Ye Bai only felt confident enough to leave the city because he had reached the First Grade Late Stage.

"Ning Yuan..."

Ye Bai saw the youth clearly, but felt a bit speechless.

Not just because he was an acquaintance.

The other party was the most loyal pursuer of the Third High School's school beauty, Li Qingqing, who had been the school's top student until the Martial Dao Talent Awakening Ceremony!

Over the past three years, he had often been at odds with Ye Bai, both openly and secretly, because Li Qingqing frequently sought advice from him, the school's top student...

Furthermore, as mentioned before, for the convenience of Martial Artists, the Martial Artist Association allows tasks to be submitted and rewards to be claimed directly via their app.

For hunting Alien Races outside the city, most don't even need to accept a task; one can simply film and upload a video of the Alien Race's corpse to claim the reward directly!

Ning Yuan appearing at the Martial Artist Association was clearly his first time hunting Alien Beasts, and he had run over specifically to show off, only to be coincidentally bumped into by him...

"Haha, everyone, you're too kind!

I have indeed reached Rank One, and I have also mastered the Yellow Grade Martial Skill 【Thunder Palm】 and the Yellow Grade Martial Skill 【Clear Wind Step】, though it was all just luck..."

And just like that, Ning Yuan turned around, his back to the counter.

His response seemed humble, but in reality, his eyes were full of smugness.

It was as if he were saying that he, Ning Yuan, was a genuine Martial Dao prodigy!

The true number one of Third High School!

"You are, Ye Bai?!"

However, just as Ye Bai was rubbing his forehead, feeling that Ning Yuan wouldn't stop anytime soon and wanting to switch to another window to queue.

Coincidentally, because Ning Yuan was facing away from the counter, he spotted him at the end of the line!

This one sentence even caused everyone present to fix their gaze on Ye Bai.

"This one is also a Martial Dao prodigy from Third High School?

No way, no way, can Third High School really produce three Ranked Martial Artists this year?!"

"He is indeed a Martial Dao prodigy from my Third High School..." Ning Yuan laughed happily.

"But he was only a prodigy before the Martial Dao Talent Awakening Ceremony!"

"Ye Bai, I really didn't expect to run into you at the Martial Artist Association. It's been half a year; you only appeared during the College Entrance Examination.

I heard that even during the College Entrance Examination, you still only had 10 points of Qi and Blood? How about it, another month has passed, have you raised it to 11 points?"

Then, without waiting for the crowd's confusion, Ning Yuan walked up to Ye Bai and said playfully.

After the Martial Dao Talent Awakening Ceremony, Ye Bai had been busy hunting the Succubus Race and only returned to Third High School on the day of the College Entrance Examination.

In the eyes of ninety-nine percent of the students, it was no different from having gone missing.

Ning Yuan also only knew that Ye Bai had been stuck at 10 points of Qi and Blood, unaware of the real reason.

"Wait, I remember now...

Isn't Ye Bai that Third High School student who awakened a trash talent unheard of in history during this year's Martial Dao Talent Awakening Ceremony?"

"The former number one student of Third High School?!"

These words finally stirred everyone's memories.

The talent Ye Bai awakened had once caused a sensation in Jiangcheng!

The first talent in history that had a negative effect on Martial Artists!

"I have reached it."

Ye Bai didn't care about the strange looks from the crowd and responded to Ning Yuan softly.

He was not a person who liked to show off, and his top priority was to quickly get the credentials and map, then go to the restroom to exploit the bug.

"Oh? Then I must congratulate you!

It's been half a year; hard work pays off, you finally increased your Qi and Blood by 1 point!"

Ning Yuan, however, did not intend to let Ye Bai off just like that.

"But Ye Bai, at your rate of improvement, how long will it take for you to successfully reach Rank One and then come out of the city to hunt Alien Races like me?

Fifty years? Or is it impossible for your whole life?"

"Think about it, call me Brother Ning, and I'll take you to experience the feeling of hunting Alien Races outside the city?"

He crossed his arms and said to Ye Bai in a condescending tone.

In the current era, Unranked Martial Artists are not allowed to leave the city.

The only exception is having a powerful Ranked Martial Artist by one's side for personal protection.

Ning Yuan had mastered 【Thunder Palm】 and 【Clear Wind Step】, meeting this condition.

"Good fellow, is he going to be Ye Bai's bodyguard for free?"

"And if I remember correctly, when a Ranked Martial Artist kills Alien Races in the Wilderness, even if an Apprentice Martial Artist just follows along, they can at least get a share of thousands in rewards, right?"

These words even caused some of the surrounding Apprentice Martial Artists to cast envious looks.

Ning Yuan wasn't showing off; he was clearly trying to be Ye Bai's god of wealth!

"No need..."

Ye Bai refused.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now..."

Then, seeing that he had been delayed by Ning Yuan for quite a long time and half of the ten minutes had already passed, even if he switched to another window, it would be a stretch for him to get in line.

Ye Bai left directly.

"Heh, do you think your strength is too weak, and that following me will only hold me back?

What a pity, I originally planned to hunt at least two of the Alien Race today when I went out of the city!"

Watching Ye Bai's back, Ning Yuan could not help but let out a cold snort.

He felt that Ye Bai was being ungrateful.

Having missed his chance, Ye Bai could forget about ever leaving the city again in this lifetime!

Qi and Blood: 1131→1281 points!
