Chapter 41: One Thought Supergod

Your Grandpa? No, he\'s just a real grandson, hahaha.

Disperse, everyone. He\'s just another has-been.

Exclusive: Your Grandpa used cheats to achieve three Transcendent ratings and has now been banned by the authorities.

I can testify that Your Grandpa suddenly disappeared and has been offline since 6:10 PM yesterday, right after completing the third-level trial scene, Desolate Graveyard. It seems something happened to him.

No wonder.

Hehe, vanishing for an entire night at such a crucial time for point climbing can only be explained by a ban.

There were tens of thousands of posts, mostly filled with rumors and slander. Li Xiaofei carefully read through the posts. He discovered that the most active account in slandering him was called One Thought Supergod.

This person was also a participant in the High School War God League. His real name was Du Yiding, hailing from the Du family, one of the five major martial arts families. He seemed to love flaunting his wealth online. He had crafted an image of being straightforward and bold, saying whatever came to his mind and offending anyone he wished. Additionally, he had a peculiar hobby of throwing money around. He often held lotteries on the forum, attracting a considerable number of fans.

Besides, Du Yiding was also a powerful genius high school student. He attended Lanling High School, which was ranked second in the city. He had placed sixth in the solo mode and second in the team mode in the previous War God League, giving him plenty of reasons to be arrogant.

Since there was a celebrity participant like him fanning the flames, more and more forum users joined in mocking Your Grandpa. This wave of slander spread like a plague. Of course, there were also posts supporting Your Grandpa.

A bunch of jealous dogs, laughable.

In the absence of an official announcement from the light-network authorities, these jealous anons are here spreading rumors about doping and banning. Your mothers are dead.

Yeah, if it was really because of cheating, the authorities would have already made an announcement.

So many rumor posts made me realize one thing: Your Grandpa is probably a newcomer, and a newcomer from an ordinary high school at that, which is why these jealous dogs dare to attack so brazenly.

That makes sense, I support Your Grandpa.

However, such posts were rare and were just a few scattered responses. As soon as they were posted, they were quickly drowned out by the sea of other posts.

Li Xiaofei watched for a while, feeling bewildered. Five hundred years had passed, humanity was struggling to survive on Earth, and yet some people were still this idle.

I had just casually gained some points, so how did I suddenly become a public enemy?

He didn\'t even know this One Thought Supergod, yet the guy was attacking him like a mad dog. However, he finally understood why Principal Chen Fei had advised him not to reveal his account identity. Negative fame was still fame. He now had a bit of a following.

If I were to activate Spectator Mode and start a livestream... Maybe I could even make some money?

Li Xiaofei hesitated for a moment but dismissed the thought. His Great Strength Vajra Fist was too distinctive and easy to recognize. If he started a livestream, Your Grandpa\'s identity would quickly be exposed. It was better to continue climbing the rankings in private mode.

***

At the Ancient Desert City, a level-four trial in the high school ranking trial.

Li Xiaofei\'s figure appeared on the ten-meter-high ancient stone walls of the city. This was a city that had been abandoned for thousands of years. The ancient city was filled with weathered stone walls, collapsed palaces, streets buried in yellow sand, and bones rolling in the wind. The dry air felt like flames burning his respiratory tract.

Hiss!

A monster covered in yellow-brown sand crystals burst out of the sand. It was a Sand Scorpion, a second-level star beast. The Sand Scorpion was a terrifying predator that lurked in desert environments. The yellow-brown sand crystals on its body formed a natural armor that could withstand heavy blows, while its tail stinger moved as fast as lightning and was capable of piercing a meter-thick stone wall in an instant.

Li Xiaofei did not dare be careless.

Boom!

The Vajra Thunderous Strike sounded as Li Xiaofei\'s fist, enveloped in a pale golden glow and carrying enough power to instantly kill an eighth stage cultivator, sank into the Sand Scorpion\'s abdomen.

Hiss.

The Sand Scorpion roared in anger as it was sent flying. A look of surprise appeared on Li Xiaofei\'s face when he realized his punch hadn\'t killed the Sand Scorpion. The sand crystal layer on the beast\'s body had acted like armor. Although pieces of it had shattered and fallen off, it had absorbed most of the punch\'s force.

The Sand Scorpion\'s massive body crashed into the yellow sand below the city wall, rolling a few times before charging at Li Xiaofei again. Its raised tail was like a drawn bowstring.

Li Xiaofei took a deep breath and used the second move of the Great Strength Vajra Fist, the Vajra Earth-Shaking Blow.

600，700，800......

Boom!

A miraculous vibrating force instantly erupted from his punch.

Bang!

Blood splattered everywhere. The deadly stinger of the Sand Scorpion didn\'t even have a chance to strike as its massive body was blown apart into chunks.

Just like that, Li Xiaofei earned fifty points effortlessly. The higher the level of the star beast, the more points he gained from killing it. At that moment, more Sand Scorpions emerged from the yellow sand, surrounding Li Xiaofei. Li Xiaofei grew excited. After all, combat was the best whetstone for the strong.

He bounded onto the ancient city wall, gaining the high ground, and began battling the swarming Sand Scorpions. As he repeatedly executed the Great Strength Vajra Fist, Li Xiaofei\'s understanding and mastery of the martial technique kept growing deeper. The strength of his punches also steadily increased with his insights.

He quickly grew completely immersed in combat. One giant Sand Scorpion after another was killed, transforming into points on Li Xiaofei\'s leaderboard score.

600, 700, 800...

His points began to skyrocket. In less than half an hour, he broke through the 1500 point barrier, re-entering the top ten of the high school ranking trial’s leaderboard.

Li Xiaofei\'s understanding of the first three moves of the Great Strength Vajra Fist had finally reached a state of perfection. Now, each move contained subtle, yet profound principles of martial arts. But he still lacked the fourth move, so the entire set of techniques felt incomplete and not entirely harmonious.

Why don’t I take this opportunity to try and cultivate the fourth move, the Vajra Wrathful Mountain Split, during battle?

Suddenly—

Whoosh!

A yellow flash of lightning streaked by as Li Xiaofei\'s body suddenly stiffened. A thumb-sized blood hole appeared at the center of his forehead and a trickle of blood slowly flowed down his cheek.

"Is that... the Scorpion King?!" exclaimed Li Xiaofei.

Li Xiaofei saw a gigantic Sand Scorpion that was over six meters long. The monstrous creature looked like it had been forged from gold as it silently appeared twenty meters away. Its stinger, which was as sharp as a divine needle, was dripping with blood.

Li Xiaofei unwillingly disappeared from the Ancient Desert City. In the next instant, he was back at his initial virtual base, sitting cross-legged on the grassy cloud. His face was full of unwillingness.

He had failed. This was the first time he experienced the feeling of failure in battle. If that had been reality, he would have been dead.

That Golden Scorpion King must be a second grade star beast. Even a first stage Limit Breaking Realm cultivator might not be its match.

He calmly analyzed his performance and concluded that the maximum power of the first three moves of the Great Strength Vajra Fist was still insufficient to contend against a second grade star beast. Likewise, it would also be difficult to compete against a Limit Breaking Realm cultivator. This realization made Li Xiaofei cautious.

There are always mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people.

He couldn\'t afford to become arrogant because of his recent achievements. He needed to quickly master the fourth move of the Great Strength Vajra Fist, the Vajra Wrathful Mountain Split.

After weighing his options, Li Xiaofei decided to start training right there on the grassy cloud in his virtual base.

Training in the light-network virtual world had one significant advantage, the user\'s energy, spirit, and focus were all adjusted to their theoretical best states, making the training of martial techniques highly effective. This was somewhat similar to the benefits of the Secret Time Pavilion.

Li Xiaofei quickly immersed himself in his martial arts practice. Meanwhile, he was unaware that the ranking trial’s forum was in an uproar once again.
