Chapter 268: How Can I Be Number One?
The small landing ship was silent.
Everyone blankly watched as Chu Nan held a huge piece of meat that was even larger than his face and ate heartily. They were speechless for a long time.
After a long time, a member of the rescue team forced a smile and said, âCough⌠this⌠this Chu Nan⌠has a huge appetiteâŚâ
The others turned to look at him and did not speak.
That team member helplessly spread out his hands, âWhat do you want me to say? Could it be that we still have to discuss the problem of rescuing him?â
Hearing the word ârescueâ, the other team members looked at the leader.
The leader frowned as he looked at Chu Nan on the virtual screen. He thought for a moment and shook his head.
âThereâs no need. Since even a C-rank beast canât kill him, thereâs no need for our help.â
After saying that, he turned to the team member who had been responsible for monitoring Chu Nanâs personal condition and asked, âHowâs his current condition? If he encounters another battle, can he persist?â
The expression on that team memberâs face was extremely strange.
âThis⌠you definitely wonât believe it. His current physical condition is actually much better than beforeâŚâ
âHow is that possible!â Immediately, a team member retorted, âHe just fought with the Storm Killer King. Even if he wins, heâll at least be injured, right? We clearly saw that his leg should have been broken by the Storm Killer King. How can heâŚâ
Before he could finish, he swallowed his words.
This was because on the screen, Chu Nan was squatting on the ground and biting on a huge piece of meat happily. His legs were firmly supporting his body, so how could anyone see any signs of breaking?
âPull it closer and take a closer look.â The leader suddenly instructed.
The team member in charge of monitoring immediately zoomed in and even circled Chu Nan. He discovered that other than some blood on his body, he did not seem to be heavily injured.
In the extremely precise scene, it could even be seen that his skin was not even broken!
âThis⌠this is too ridiculous!â
Not only was the team member who had asked the question just now, after seeing this situation, almost all the team members shouted in disbelief.
âHow can he not be injured at all?â
âThatâs right. Thereâs not even a scratch. How is this possible?!â
âI also remember seeing that his leg seemed to be broken just now. Itâs impossible for me to be wrongâŚâ
âWhatâs going on? It canât be that our eyes are playing tricks on us, right?â
The leader pondered for a moment and waved his hand. âAlright, now is not the time to discuss these problems. Since weâve confirmed that his physical condition is fine, our rescue operation will temporarily end. Immediately connect me to Director Sun. I want to report the situation to him.â
âReport directly to Director Sun?â The surrounding team members were a little strange.
Logically speaking, after the rescue teamâs mission was completed, they only needed to submit a report.
Moreover, such a rescue operation that was canceled midway should not have alarmed Director Sun at all.
âThis kid called Chu Nan is clearly extraordinary to be able to kill a C-rank ferocious beast as an initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. I have to report this special situation to Director Sun in time and ask him to pay more attention to this kid,â the leader said.
The team members looked at each other. One of them said hesitantly, âBut speaking of this Chu Nan⌠I remember now. Wasnât he once judged by the two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman, to be almost impossible to break through the Cosmic Heavenâs Gate?â
âSo what?â The leader sneered and pointed at Chu Nan who was still eating meat on the virtual screen, âYou all saw it just now. If he hadnât already comprehended spatial energy, it would be impossible for him to break through the Storm Killer Kingâs protective Gale. He was able to comprehend spatial energy when he was still at the initial-stage Internal Breath Realm, so how can he not break through the Cosmic Heavenâs Gate in the future? What a joke of an evaluation!â
Feng Mingxi casually slapped the head of a Giant-Tailed Spirit Lizard. The powerful Internal Breath of a fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist surged out wildly and directly shattered the head of this Giant-Tailed Spirit Lizard.
âHey, Weisol, quickly scan it. After this, weâll go to the next place.â
Feng Mingxi shouted, but he did not hear Weisolâs response. He turned around in confusion and discovered that Weisol was actually staring at the virtual screen of his personal terminal with a frown and a surprised expression.
âHey, what are you daydreaming about?â Feng Mingxi urged, âIt wonât increase by itself just by looking at the rankings. Come over and scan this one first. This way, your points will exceed 1,000. You should be able to squeeze into the top 200, right?â
Weisol was still too stunned to answer.
Feng Mingxi became impatient and walked over to pat Weisol.
âHey, what are you doing?â Feng Mingxi asked.
Weisol nodded and then changed to an excited expression.
âMingxi, do you know what I discovered just now?â
âWhat?â Feng Mingxi was a little strange. âCan you see anything from this ranking?â
âI really saw something!â Weisol pointed at the real-time points ranking on the virtual screen, âLook at thisâŚâ
Feng Mingxi leaned over in confusion and discovered that Weisol was pointing at the guy ranked 88th on the rankings. His name was Chu Nan.
âChu Nan? You seem to have mentioned this to me before?â
âYes. Itâs that guy who was said by two Star-Grade Martial Artists to be unable to break through the Cosmic Heavenâs Gate,â Weisol said excitedly, âDo you know what I discovered on him just now?â
âDiscovered my ass! You donât even know where he is now. How can you know what heâs doing?â
âOf course!â Weisol proudly pointed at the points ranking, âI just discovered that Chu Nanâs points actually increased by 100!â
âOh?â Feng Mingxi raised his eyebrows in surprise, âIt seems that this guy is really not bad. He can actually deal with ten D-rank ferocious beasts in a row. However, itâs possible that someone helped him kill them and made him gather them for a scan, right? Just like when I helped you farm points yesterday.â
âNo, no, no. Itâs different.â Weisol immediately shook his head, âHe gained 100 points at once. Do you understand what I mean? It means that he didnât gain 10 points 10 times, but directly 100 points!â
Feng Mingxi was slightly stunned, and then he narrowed his eyes.
âYou mean⌠he killed a C-rank beast? How is that possible?!â
âIn terms of strength, it should be impossible for him to kill a C-rank beast, but the change in points canât be wrong. I donât know what method he used, but he definitely killed a C-rank beast!â
âOh?â Feng Mingxi was silent for a moment before the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up into a smile, âIf itâs really a C-rank beast he killed himself, then itâs a little interesting.â
After a pause, he suddenly waved his hand.
âLetâs go, Weisol. Letâs find a C-rank beast.â
Weisol was stunned. When he saw the expression on Feng Mingxiâs face, he immediately cried out in his mind.
âThereâs no need to do this⌠Mingxi, your points are more than 200 points higher than the second place. If you persist for another day, youâll definitely obtain first place. If you run to find a C-rank beast, not only will it be a waste of time, perhaps⌠cough, in any case, itâs quite a waste of time. The efficiency is not high.â
âWhat? Are you afraid that I canât defeat a C-rank beast?â Feng Mingxi sneered, âLetâs go. Even this Chu Nan can kill a C-rank beast. If I canât even compare to him, how can I call myself number one?â
After saying this, Feng Mingxi turned around and left.
Weisol smiled bitterly and could only follow.
