Chapter 22: Chapter 22

Nine Great Hunter Universities Alliance

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing an elite monster. The tenfold drop has been triggered!]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the Viper Ring!]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the Viper Boots!]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the Viper Robe!]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the Viper Gauntlet!]

Lu Benwei looked startled.

Good lord, he had gathered an entire viper set!

If it were anyone else, they might have to defeat three or four elite-level Argu Snakes before they could receive one or two drops of leader equipment.

All in all, it was extremely difficult to gather an entire set of equipment.

On the other hand, Lu Benwei had already gathered all the viper items after killing just one Argu Snake. If this got out, many people would be so envious that they would turn purple.

Before Lu Benwei could recover, the mechanical voice came again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new skill scroll—Venomous Fang!]

[Venomous Fang. Level: 20 universal skill]

[Quality: Rare!]

[Effect: Each attack will carry 15 percent poison damage. Effect lasts for 5 seconds!]

“Damn! That’s a little heaven-defying! That’s equivalent to doing 175 percent damage with each attack!”

Lu Benwei used [One-Click Skill Support] to instantly comprehend [Venomous Fang].

He was very confident that with his level 16 strength, it was completely possible for him to fight someone of a higher level!

Then, he put on the full set of viper suit.

“Damn, Brother Lu, why did you suddenly turn green?”

“Too bad. All that’s missing is the one on my head.”

Li Tianran and the others had already approached Lu Benwei. They looked at him curiously.

“Ahem…”

Lu Benwei put the Viper Set away.

At the same time, he also discovered that apart from the attributes of each piece of viper equipment, after collecting all items of Viper Set, it would also trigger the resonance effect of the set.

His attributes had been greatly improved. Not only that, but a set of skills also appeared in his mind.

[Viper Set]

[Set Effect: Immune to 30 percent of the poison below level 25. Can absorb 15 percent of the poison attack and convert it into your own strength!]

Lu Benwei’s eyes were calm. He was already used to such heaven-defying skills in the eyes of outsiders.

“Brother Lu, you’re so brave!”

“My admiration for you is endless!”

“From now on, you’re my idol. I want to be like you in the future!”

Li Tianran’s eyes turned to stars.

Guo Hao and Liu Dongqing also came forward to congratulate him. “If I’m not wrong, Brother Lu, you’re this year’s Hai Province’s top student. You can choose from any of the nine hunter universities!”

Zhao Kong could not hide the envy and respect in his eyes.

The moment Lu Benwei disemboweled the elite Argu Snake, he was completely convinced by Lu Benwei’s strength.

Lu Benwei looked at Chen Lei and Liu Nannan.

The two of them were stunned at first. Finally, the blush spread from their faces to the backs of their ears.

It was an indisputable fact that Lu Benwei had become the top student of the Hai Province.

However, he was a magician. Most importantly, before the assessment, the two of them had repeatedly spoken rudely to Lu Benwei.

Now, he had been slapped in the face. As if he was not embarrassed!

Lu Benwei said calmly, “Let’s go out. I’m sure the principal and the others can’t wait anymore!”

The exit of the purgatory mystic realm had long been opened.

Everyone crowded around Lu Benwei and returned to the real world.

The huge stadium was as silent as death.

The scene of Lu Benwei’s one slash ending the elite Argu Snake was still vivid in their minds as if it was right in front of them.

Even though five to six minutes had passed, it was still difficult for everyone to regain their senses.

“Zi… Ziling, tell me quickly, did Benwei really do this?”

“Are we all mistaken?”

Mrs. Lu placed a hand on Lu Ziling’s shoulder.

Lu Ziling could even feel the sweat on her palms.

“Mom, can so many people see wrongly?” Lu Ziling asked with a smile.

Mr. Lu suddenly came back to his senses and waved the flag with all his might.

“My son is the best!”

He waved as hard and as high as he ever had. The flag clanged in his hand!

The audience in Green Spirit City was the first to react and instantly erupted into thunderous applause.

“After so many years, our Green Spirit City finally has a top scholar.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Furthermore, he’s a magician. In the next three days, the entire Qinglong City will be shaken by our Green Spirit City!”

“Look at Lu Benwei. He’s even happier than when I won five million!”

“Brothers from other cities, what are you waiting for? Applause!”

The applause continued, growing louder.

At this moment, the exit of the purgatory mystic realm flickered.

The prodigies of the other schools jumped out one after another.

The finale was Lu Benwei’s team!

The applause reached a crescendo.

Li Tianran waved at everyone, feeling extremely excited.

However, at this moment, many people emerged from the curtain behind the stadium’s rostrum.

“Damn, that’s the vice-principal of the Central Plains Hunter University. He’s here to personally recruit people!”

“And the major general, whose uniform means he’s from the Northern Military District. He’s here to recruit, too?”

Previously, all the authorities in the scoring room had come out.

One of the reasons they were here was to score the students of Hai Province.

Secondly, they were here to recruit outstanding students.

Once the student was chosen by them, the student would be guaranteed direct admission. There was no need to review the student’s results.

Of course, the students who were not selected would also choose the hunter university that matched their scores after the evaluation and reviews officially ended.

The Qinglong City Hunter University was divided into three levels. The first level was the best, and the third level was the worst.

First-class Hunter University was divided into three levels: A-class, B-class, and C-class.

Among them, the A-class was divided into the Nine Great Hunter Universities Alliance, the Dragon East Five Universities Alliance, and the Five Central Universities…

“Chen Lei, right? I’m the deputy director of the Warrior Department at Zhonghai University. We can give you first-class resources.”

Zhonghai University was a first-rate Hunter University, second only to the Nine Great Hunter Universities!

At this moment, Zhonghai University had extended an olive branch to Chen Lei.

The others around him instantly cast envious glances.

Chen Lei was a little hesitant. At this moment, he did not know his score and felt that he had the ability to compete with the Nine Great Hunter Universities.

“Liu Nannan, you can join Hudan Hunter University if you want, but our school won’t pour any resources into you.”

The person in charge of Hudan Hunter University said solemnly to Liu Nannan.

Hudan Hunter University was one of the Nine Great Hunter Universities. Liu Nannan did not beg for much.

“Brother Lu, aren’t you the top student?”

“Why didn’t anyone recruit you?!”

Li Tianran patted Lu Benwei’s shoulder.

“Isn’t that simple? Look at the way the Nine Great Hunter Universities look at Brother Lu. It’s like they’re looking at a naked beauty.”

“They’re probably thinking of what tempting conditions to recruit Brother Lu,” Liu Dongqing said.

Li Tianran smacked his lips. “I’m so envious. I have to wait for the results to come out. It’ll be good enough if I can get a second-rate Hunter University to recruit me.”

Then someone tapped him on the shoulder.

“Li Tianran, is it? I’m the person in charge of the Assassin Department of Central Plains Hunter University. Are you willing to come to my school?” a middle-aged man offered.

Li Tianran was stunned. “First-tier B-class university?”
