Chapter 4360

Edward Elric: "......"

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Ara ara, that is indeed a true statement."

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Alchemy tests one's understanding of the world. The deeper your understanding of the world, the greater the power you can harness through alchemy."

Xiao Zhizhi Shu smiled faintly, her expression tinged with amusement.

She added another remark.

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "And who, then, understands the world better than a scientist?"

Nakano Miku: "You mean Mr. Tony Stark's physicist, right......"

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "!!! There is no essential difference between the two. A scientist must also be a brilliant mathematician, physicist, chemist...... and simultaneously study artificial intelligence, energy science, and a host of other disciplines...... otherwise, what the hell kind of scientist are you?"

Nakano Miku: "!!!"

Shazam: "...... Only you shameless scientists would study so much. Apologize to ordinary scientists right now!!! "

Princess Lala: "Eh!? Isn't that how it is?"

Princess Lala was utterly astonished.

Sakamoto: "......"

Levi: "......"

Hermione: "I almost forgot...... the scientists in the society aren't normal at all."

Kayaba Akihiko: "...... I'm normal. How did you all forget me?"

Senjougahara Hitagi: "In an ordinary everyday world, you alone created Sword Art Online—a 100% immersive virtual game. Doesn't your conscience hurt?!"

Aikawa Ayumu: "True ordinary people dare not speak."

Gao Ban realm: "How are you ordinary? You're Zombie Ayumu! And you're even the male version of a Magical Girl!"

Aikawa Ayumu: "......"

Seeing the first half, Aikawa Ayumu felt a flicker of relief—but after reading the rest... damn it, is this encouragement or mockery?! After a long silence, Aikawa Ayumu posted a message in the society from the bottom of his heart.

Aikawa Ayumu: "Mr. Gao Ban, if you hadn't joined the society early and hadn't built up your strength through early accumulation, you'd have been killed long ago."

Nya-ko: "He's been killed so many times already! Last time I saw him with my own eyes—he was strung up in the society's virtual battlefield and died in an extremely cruel way."

Hilarious.

"

Lao Fu Shi Hou Jue: "Hehe, it was probably me last time. The only regret is... I didn't trick Gao Ban realm into activating 500% pain mode!"

Gao Ban realm: "Pfft... You think I'm stupid.

I accepted your challenge precisely because I wanted the pressure from your strength to push me to grow stronger......"

Gao Ban realm: "The results proved it—after that last battle, I truly achieved a major breakthrough."

Gao Ban realm: "Now, among the Third Class, I can call myself a peak existence."

Gao Ban realm: "But Old Hou Jue's strength is simply too great... If he hadn't been annoyed by me last time and hadn't toyed with me like a cat with a mouse, he could've killed me instantly. I wouldn't have gotten the chance to grasp the next step."

After a long sigh, Gao Ban realm regained his composure.

Gao Ban realm: "Next time I break through the Fifth Barrier, I'll find someone whose strength matches mine!"

Lao Fu Shi Hou Jue: "......"

A Xing: "There's even this kind of move?"

"

Wall-Eyed Luo Jie: "This is truly shocking... bullshit. If you want to challenge someone, why not pick Sakata Gintoki—the one who's your mortal rival?"

Luo Jie's expression was priceless—Gao Ban realm's explanation had too many absurd points.

Gao Ban realm: "I've fought Sakata Gintoki too many times... no surprises left."

Gao Ban realm: "Besides, he can't give me that life-or-death sense of crisis! So I have to pick others... and now, needless to say, hahaha—I've completely surpassed him!"

Besides, he couldn't give me that lethal sense of crisis either! So I could only pick someone else... Now there's even less need to say more, hahahaha, I've already completely risen above him!"

Sakata Gintoki: "I feel like you've got some serious misconceptions about me! Even against Second Class members in the society, I can still hold my own... even you, after your breakthrough, are no match for me!"

Sakata Gintoki: "I always feel like you have some kind of misunderstanding about me! Even against a second-tier powerhouse within the Duigong Society, I can still exchange a couple of moves... Even you after your breakthrough are absolutely no match for me!"
