Chapter 17

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The actions of Dazhuang and Cheng were just a microcosm of the employees in Qianbai Enterprise in this frenzy hour.

The usually lifeless Binhai City seemed to have been awakened by the gimmicks of the arena.

When countless people saw the high school student on the poster, they felt as if they were seeing their past selves or the humans who were struggling on their last legs.

And when he saw the beast in front of the high school student, they seemed to recall the beast attacks that had happened over the past hundred years.

It was obviously just an exaggerated publicity stunt, but everyone who saw the leaflet had the urge to watch it.

No matter what they were doing, as long as they had the time, they couldn’t help but walk to the Bay Arena.

They would take their money out, buy tickets, and enter the venue. They wanted to see this high school student duel with the beast.

When the one-hour promotional period ended, the tickets to the arena were already sold out, but there were still many blocking the entrance, holding up cash and shouting to buy tickets.

For this reason, the arena staff even hastily produced a batch of “standing tickets”, and finally collected the money of the people blocking the entrance into their pockets.

Even though the frantically made “standing tickets” were still three times the price of the ordinary tickets, the audience was still willing to pay to watch.

This was because the people who came later didn’t just want to see an exciting battle, but more so of a human defeating a fierce beast.

They wanted to see that there was still hope for the future of mankind in defeating the beasts and taking back their home!

On the other side, in Binhai First High, a large number of teachers and students had received the news from the arena.

Whether it was the students or the teachers, all of them subconsciously stopped what they were doing.

Then, they talked to the people closest to themselves and shared their shock.

“Did you see the news? A student from our high school is going to participate in the duel?”

“I’ve seen it! That guy’s name is Su Chen, from Class E03. I heard that he’s someone who has awakened his talent. ”

“Wow, he just awakened his talent and already dares to go to the arena? Could it be that he had awakened a talent above the B grade? That can’t be, aren’t those with talents above B-grade protected?”

“I heard that the principal has heard about this. He’ll probably take action soon. Let’s wait and see.”



Voices of discussions filled the campus, causing the originally quiet campus to suddenly become unusually lively.

In a dormitory in the student dormitory building, a high school student was looking at the content on his phone with his mouth wide open.

On the screen of the mobile phone was a slightly scribbled but clearly styled poster.

On it, a thin human stood upright like a lonely warrior in a forbidden land. In front of him was a huge fierce beast.

At the bottom corner of the poster was the specific content of this gimmick: A student of Binhai First High VS the weeping corpse bird, a beast of the myriad races.

“Su Chen…. To think he went to the arena and even dares to apply for a duel with a beast? He must be crazy! Isn’t this guy afraid of dying in the arena? Why didn’t he tell me about this? Did he not want his brother anymore after awakening his talent? Doesn’t he need my worry anymore?”

The person who was shouting and looking extremely angry was Su Chen’s roommate, Li An.

The dormitories of Binhai First High accommodated two people per room.

Therefore, Su Chen and Li An’s relationship was usually very good. However, after the talent awakening ceremony yesterday, the two of them had not spoken a word to each other.

It was because Li An had failed to awaken his talent, so was in a very bad mood. He did not congratulate Su Chen at all for successfully awakening his talent either.

Li An even felt a little jealous at that time. As such, when Su Chen passed by him yesterday, he did not say a word.

However, he would never have thought that in just a day, Su Chen would go to the arena!

Li An began to worry. Although he was envious of Su Chen’s talent, he was still worried when he saw that Su Chen might be in danger.

“I just wonder what Su Chen is thinking! Does he really think that he’s very powerful just because he had awakened a D-grade talent? If you have the ability, then don’t make me worry! You ignorant fool!” Li An got up from bed and scolded Su Chen angrily.

Unable to fully vent his anger, he even picked up a bottle of mineral water from his table and smashed it on the ground.

The unfinished water bottle smashed to the ground, and the mouth of the bottle broke on the spot. Foul water gushed out of the broken bottle and spilled on the floor.

Not far away, there was a pile of leftover food boxes from last night. In Li An’s anger, he kicked them and scattered them all over the dormitory as well.

A strong stench filled the room. The food boxes scattered around and the water mixed with oil stains gave the dormitory a new look.

In less than a dozen seconds, the dormitory that was quite a good stay had become a new garbage dump.

The strong stench and the dirty garbage stimulated vision and taste at the same time.

However, even the strong stench and the messy garbage piles could not affect the anger in Li An’s heart.

He was angry at Su Chen’s stupid decision and blind confidence. He had just awakened his talent, yet he dared to go to the arena to fight with a beast.

Su Chen was just a f*cking fool who did not care about his life!

However, even though Li An was saying all sorts of unpleasant things and even had a hint of disdain and ridicule in his tone, his eyes were filled with worry.

Just like when he smashed the bottle of water in anger, he still subconsciously avoided Su Chen’s bed, or else the water would’ve splashed on Su Chen’s bed.

When he kicked the stack of food boxes to vent his anger, he also control the direction in which those food boxes would fly, to prevent them from hitting Su Chen’s shoes.

He didn’t want the greasy soup from getting onto Su Chen’s clothes.

Even though Li An kept scolding Su Chen, he did not curse at his friend. Almost all of his words were directed at Su Chen’s wrong decision.

After putting on his shoes, Li An immediately left the dormitory and ran to the teaching building where his form teacher, Mr. Yang, was.

“Su Chen! Just you wait! I’ll call the teacher to save you!”



In the principal’s office of Binhai First High, the door was constantly pushed open, and people kept coming in one after another.

After a while, more than ten teachers had gathered in the office.

Every teacher had a phone in their hand, and the phone was full of the news of the arena.

The office was slightly crowded because of the large number of teachers gathered. There were also celebratory lanterns, colored couplets, red couplets, and so on placed around.

At this moment, these should have been hung on the campus to celebrate the students who had awakened their talents.

However, due to some special reasons, they were all piled up here.

On the principal’s desk, a large amount of tea leaves that had been soaked in water were scattered. They let out hot steam as they fell off the edge of the table along with the water.

The source of the tea was the headmaster’s teacup that had been knocked over. The teacup was still shaking, making the tea in the cup change spilling directions.

The steaming tea swept the endless tea leaves and rolled over the entire desk, wetting all the documents and papers they came into contact with.

However, the strange thing was that no one in the entire office seemed to care. The teachers just looked at the desk silently, allowing the water to run everywhere and wet many things.

The owner of the desk, the principal of Binhai First High, didn’t even look at the desk.

He just held his phone and pointed at the promotional message of “Binhai First High student VS the weeping corpse bird”, and roared angrily, “Which class is this student from? Why didn’t you stop him! We only have a dozen awakened students in our school today! Don’t you know what this means?!”
