44: Chapter 44 System Upgrade Task

"Eighty floors? What a joke!"

Principal Chen Lingjun exclaimed.

The Divine Dao Heavenly Ladder of Wang Mountain has a total of ninety-nine floors.

Having worked in the education industry for so many years and having seen countless examinees from Wang Mountain, he had never seen anyone exceed seventy floors.

Even the top scorer of a province barely reached sixty floors!

Shen Xingchen and Jiang Qingyao didn't feel much about it because they truly hadn't understood these things.

Secretary Su Rou glanced at Principal Chen Lingjun. "That file was sealed, so it's normal that you don't know. Sixty years ago, Wang Mountain welcomed an S-rank examinee, and he ultimately stood on the seventy-ninth floor!"

"After feeling the pressure of the seventy-ninth floor, that student didn't try the eightieth floor anymore, because he was already the undisputed number one by a massive margin."

"Of course, this also had to do with us; back then, none of us knew what the eightieth floor meant!"

"That is the inheritance of a King-class existence above Tier 9!"

Principal Chen Lingjun was so shocked that his eyes were about to pop out. "What!?"

He was both shocked that someone could actually reach the seventy-ninth floor of the Divine Dao Heavenly Ladder and shocked that the inheritance turned out to be of the King-class!

It was said that above Tier 9, there were still several realms, and the highest peak was called the King-class!

In the entire current Huaxia, there was only one King-class figure. He had been stationed in Snowfield Dragon City year-round, protecting Huaxia for countless years.

Now, another King-class inheritance had appeared in the world!

Secretary Su Rou changed her usual alluring posture, looked at Shen Xingchen, and said solemnly, "Shen Xingchen, you are the only S-rank in ten years. Only you have the possibility of obtaining that person's inheritance, so... you must succeed!"

That King-class figure in Snowfield Dragon City had been stationed there for too many years; he was truly too old and... too tired!

If another young King-class figure could emerge...

Secretary Su Rou couldn't help thinking this way.

"I will work hard!" Shen Xingchen nodded.

He had watched documentaries of the Snowfield Battlefield, all of which were real footage.

Countless people had been fearless of death, following one after another to guard Huaxia's territory, and right now, people were dying on the battlefield every single moment.

Secretary Su Rou looked at the youth's firm gaze and said softly, "I believe in you!"

Just like that, the chat about the college entrance examination was finished.

Secretary Su Rou reverted to her usual enchanting appearance.

During the casual chat, astonishing words frequently came out.

Things like "beyond reach", "man upon man", "effortlessly", "bestow everything", and "deep and concise".

Shen Xingchen felt that he could no longer view these words normally anymore...

Jiang Qingyao also blushed ignorantly. Although she couldn't fully understand the "certain profound meaning" of these words, she could still guess a thing or two.

Shen Xingchen really couldn't take it anymore and changed the subject. "Is Director Li doing well right now?"

Secretary Su Rou: "Very well."

Shen Xingchen continued to ask, "Then what about Director Li's mother? What about his father? And are his grandmother all doing well?"

Secretary Su Rou: "???"

If you didn't want to chat, just say it directly!

High school students nowadays really had thin skin; they were too embarrassed to say words of rejection directly.

Secretary Su Rou didn't have anything else to do, and since she was rejected from chatting by Shen Xingchen, she had no reason to stay any longer.

When she left, she had a look of unfulfilled desire on her face.

Shen Xingchen was chilled to the bone watching her.

No joke, even a Tier 7 Demon race wouldn't be able to chill him to the bone like this right now!

...

All matters came to an end.

Principal Chen Lingjun exhorted Shen Xingchen with a few words, telling him to be extra careful when going out, and then with a flash of movement, he disappeared.

A Tier 5 Martial Artist was indeed fast...

Then, Shen Xingchen turned his head to look at Lin Hu.

Lin Hu was startled at first, then hurriedly spoke, "Um... my uncle gave birth to my grandma, my dad has a cold uterus, so I'll... I'll leave first."

"..." Shen Xingchen.

What the hell was this all about?

Lin Hu quickly disappeared.

In the end, only the two of them, Shen Xingchen and Jiang Qingyao, were left.

Jiang Qingyao's brain had been thoroughly influenced by Secretary Su Rou today.

Recalling the scenes of Secretary Su Rou conquering Shen Xingchen just now, she inexplicably moved closer to Shen Xingchen's body.

Her small hand brushed across Shen Xingchen's jaw, gently pinching Shen Xingchen's collar.

Because she was very nervous, her heartbeat was extremely fast.

Mimicking Secretary Su Rou's tone, with her other hand, she drew circles on Shen Xingchen's chest with her fingers and said softly, "Little brother, do you think older sister is beautiful?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Qingyao herself was shocked.

How could she say such words!

Shen Xingchen's face was full of black lines.

He could tell with his toes that Jiang Qingyao was imitating Secretary Su Rou.

One Secretary Su Rou was already enough for him to handle; a second one couldn't be allowed to appear!

"I told you not to learn bad things!"

Shen Xingchen raised his hand and gently patted Jiang Qingyao's perky buttocks.

Slap—

A crisp sound rang out, and the entire world seemed to quiet down.

Shen Xingchen could clearly feel that Jiang Qingyao's body trembled violently.

Her brain seemed to go blank in an instant.

Following that, her cheeks turned visibly red, and her entire body seemed to be about to turn completely red.

"You... you..." Jiang Qingyao pointed her jade finger at Shen Xingchen, unable to speak for a long time.

Shen Xingchen actually had a tiny bit of regret; after all, she was just an inexperienced little girl...

But since it was already done, there was nothing much to say.

Didn't she tease him too?

Jiang Qingyao's pretty face was blushing so hard it seemed like it could drip blood. She glared at Shen Xingchen with a cannibalistic gaze, then ran away as if fleeing.

"Big hooligan!!"

The girl only left behind such a shy and angry remark at the end.

Shen Xingchen shrugged helplessly. "She actually ran away. How rude!"

Shen Xingchen strongly condemned this style of eating everything up and refusing to acknowledge the debt!

He thought again about the way Jiang Qingyao imitated Secretary Su Rou just now.

Although it was just put on.

But that face capable of turning all living beings upside down, matched with that charming posture, truly made one... intoxicated!

If it were real...

Just thinking about it made Shen Xingchen feel like his bones were being softened.

After Little Miss Jiang had left for a long time, Shen Xingchen finally calmed down.

Although he was assassinated this time, the harvest was also quite abundant.

On his wrist, the gilded bracelet shone brilliantly under the reflection of the streetlights.

Xingyue gilded bracelet!

That was the name of this storage bracelet.

This was a bracelet worth five hundred million RMB!

He could go purchase some daily necessities, as well as weapons, spiritual objects, and so on, and store them inside the gilded bracelet.

This way, even if he went out for a long time in the future, he wouldn't have to worry about supply issues.

Furthermore, it also resolved the awkward dilemma of having learned various martial techniques before yet being unable to carry weapons around with him.

The Tang Family father and son were truly good people!

Shen Xingchen was sighing with emotion.

{Ding!}
