    “However, it doesn’t matter… the top freshman will ultimately still lose to me.”

    Li Wei said: “Don’t you feel like your throat is on fire? After I confirmed the location, I secretly set up ‘Burning Fire Poison’, you…”

    Before he finished speaking, he saw Fang Xing leap, his body moving like flight, landing before him.

    “Bodily flight… no, you’ve reached the Outer Scene Realm?”

    Li Wei was shocked, his two jet-black daggers like striking snakes, making a final struggle.

    *Slap!*

    The next moment, Fang Xing raised his right hand, and a slap landed.

    The two daggers flew high into the air. His golden-glowing palm hardly paused, slapping him across the face, distorting his features…

    “Ah! What the nerve!”

    Li Wei was kicked off the battle platform, somewhat fearfully touching his face.

    “I didn’t expect Fang Xing to have already reached the Outer Scene Realm. The Burning Fire Poison didn’t have much effect on him… the mixed poison on me is the same.”

    Outer Scene Realm experts can envelop themselves with their domain power, making them opponents that poisoners are very reluctant to face.

    Moreover, this is a virtual space. Even if poisoned deeply, as long as they quickly kill their opponent, they can pass, and then their physical state is refreshed…

    “However, next time it won’t be so simple. Poisons that can break domains… I’m still a little short of being able to configure them…”

    Li Wei prepared to go to the virtual laboratory to configure a type of poison he had conceived.

    What he liked most about virtual space was this: he could experiment freely without worrying about killing others or himself.

    Of course, more importantly, the raw materials for making poisons are very expensive, but in virtual space, they are dirt cheap.

    He could completely refine his skills here before configuring them in the real world.

    It saved so many resources!

    At this time, he heard two girls beside him talking: “Did you also meet that face-slapping maniac?”

    “Yeah, that person is so fierce, slapping faces right away, so impolite.”

    “I heard he’s a Martial Dao freshman from Blue Star University. He was even more brutal during enrollment, beating a girl’s face until it was unrecognizable…”

    “Later, that girl became his junior. I wonder if she’ll have nightmares at night…”

    “Face-slapping maniac, terrifying!”

    Li Wei checked and found that in just this short time, Fang Xing had started winning rapidly.

    However, this was normal. An Outer Scene Realm martial artist in this virtual space battle platform is definitely a top-tier expert.

    It’s just that his habit and bad taste are a bit…

    “Face-slapping maniac Fang Xing…”

    Li Wei touched his cheek.

    Although he knew it was an illusion, it still seemed to hurt…

    Fang Xing was completely unaware of what was happening outside.

    He was immersed in the battle platform, familiarizing himself with the power after reaching the Outer Scene Realm.

    The initial opponents were naturally some weaklings, defeated by him with a casual punch or palm.

    Only after reaching the 10,000th place did he finally encounter some challenge.

    “Hmm?”

    Fang Xing opened his eyes and saw a new enemy, causing him to pause slightly.

    “Boss…”

    Opposite him, Song Jingang waved happily: “I heard that Boss, you broke through to the Outer Scene Realm and are frantically sweeping the battle platform, so I immediately came online… I didn’t expect it would take so long to queue to you…”

    “Hmm, you came just in time. Let me test how strong the strongest defense of the Brave Warrior Realm is.”

    Fang Xing nodded, casually grasping his hand, a dazzling blade light condensing in his hand, transforming into a bluish-green long sword.

    This was a deeper utilization of domain power and Outer Scene Realm True Qi after his advancement.

    “Okay, but Boss, let’s agree beforehand, you can’t slap my face!”

    Song Jingang quickly said.

    “What do you mean I can’t slap your face?”

    Fang Xing was somewhat bewildered.

    “Boss, don’t you know yet? Your name has spread outside. People call you the Face-Slapping Maniac…”

    Song Jingang’s voice got smaller and smaller towards the end.

    “Face-Slapping Maniac?”

    Fang Xing’s face darkened. The bluish-green long sword, like thunder, instantly struck Song Jingang’s ‘King Kong Body’ defense.

    “Ah! Boss… I didn’t call you that!”

    The golden light on Song Jingang’s body shattered like an eggshell, his face still bearing a hint of grievance.

    Then…

    He saw a golden palm descending from the sky…

    ‘Face-Slapping Maniac, the name lives up to its reputation.’

    Before falling into darkness, only this sentence remained in Song Jingang’s mind.

    Fang Xing, with a dark face, exited the battle platform and checked the internet, only to find many comments.

    “Sigh… my reputation is ruined, I’m leaving.”

    He quickly told Xiao Lan to go offline, leaving the gathering crowd to eat nothing but regret, and they dispersed.

    “Today I broke into the top 10,000… two more days, I should be able to break into the top 100, the challenge qualification before the end of the month is secured.”

    Over the next two days, Fang Xing continued to bury his head in sweeping the battle platform, completely ignoring the outside world’s chaos.

    The freshmen in the Martial Dao department were somewhat surprised by their chief, who had been quietly cultivating after enrollment and now finally caught up.

    Fang Xing did not disappoint. Before the end of the month, he reached 66th place, successfully securing a challenge seat.

    Soon, the end of the month arrived.

    Gu Jian Tong eagerly entered the virtual cabin and came to the Blue Star community.

    “Here it comes, here it comes, the most exciting moment, the end-of-the-month challenge!”

    Around the battle platform, students from various universities had already gathered, all looking up at the screens on all sides of the battle platform.

    Through these interfaces, they could watch any battle.

    “Needless to say, Dark Star will definitely win again this time.”

    “I’m more optimistic about Luo Kai. It’s said that he has completed a major upgrade of his mecha, creating weapon modules in the virtual mechanical factory that are enough to kill Outer Scene Realm martial artists…”

    “What’s that? Our President Huyuan is the best… at least she’s very easy on the eyes.”

    Numerous students came online to watch the battle, taking sides with their favorite experts, arguing happily.

    Gu Jian Tong’s eyes narrowed slightly, seeing his own ranking: “108th… damn it, if I were in the Outer Scene Realm, I would have already climbed up.”

    Even he had to admit that Fang Xing, that face-slapping maniac, was truly formidable, especially in terms of breakthrough cultivation!

    His domain had already been established, but the spiritual power in his Niwan Palace was a little short.

    Furthermore, he was still considering his future path, which school of martial arts combined with light was the best.

    Therefore, he planned to break through to the Outer Scene Realm at the end of this school year.

    Who knew that Fang Xing would achieve it so silently.

    Even so, Gu Jian Tong did not rashly break through but prepared to push forward further with his own strength.

    Unfortunately, there were too many geniuses from the three top universities, and many older students were among them.

    He ultimately suffered a disadvantage in realm, still at the Brave Warrior Realm, regrettably outside the top 100, and could only be a spectator today.

    “Gu classmate…”

    At this time, someone greeted him with a smile.

    “Oh, it’s Yin Hazhen…”

    Gu Jian Tong nodded; he still had some impression of this classmate who could receive a few of his moves.

    “The top 100 of the battle rankings are basically all Outer Scene Realm level. It’s extremely difficult for us to gain a foothold among them…”

    Yin Hazhen suddenly asked: “Do you think Fang Xing will challenge whom?”

    “If it were me, I’d directly challenge Dark Star!” Gu Jian Tong raised his eyebrows: “Huyuan Qiusui is a woman, and Luo Kai only relies on the advantages of his mecha… Only Dark Star’s sword can make me interested in a fight… Of course, Dark Star is too strong, Gu Zhen is also good… he failed last time, and he’ll definitely rush for the top ten this time!”

    Gu Jian Tong was most unhappy about losing to two people during the college entrance examination.

    One was Fang Xing, the other was Gu Zhen!

    He was proud by nature. Although he was not forgiving in words, he still recognized that these two were his true opponents.

    Since both major opponents would be participating this time, he was naturally eager to see it.

    Inside the battle platform.

    Fang Xing sat in his rest room, watching the battle list: “Hmm… the top ten must accept ten challenges today, no more, no less… who should I choose?”

    He looked at the young-looking Dark Star, the burly mecha pilot Luo Kai, and glanced at Huyuan Qiusui, with her autumn-water eyes and tall, slender figure, and smiled.

    “Huyuan Qiusui is also the student council president, and she’s quite pretty…”

    He swiped his finger, stopping at the ninth position.

    “I’m not stupid, to challenge a peak Outer Scene Realm expert as a newly entered Outer Scene Realm expert…”

    “The tenth place is considered a soft persimmon, receiving too many challenges, too troublesome… ninth place is just right.”

    Ninth place on the battle ranking, named ‘Wu Lie’, from Sacred Armor University, was a mecha pilot!

    ‘According to the virtual space classification, this Wu Lie is a fifth-order mecha pilot, meaning that wearing a mecha, he can rival Outer Scene Realm martial artists… I can see what he’s like.’

    Fang Xing called up the challenge invitation button and clicked send.

    Not long after, he saw Wu Lie accept his challenge.

    “Hmm, there are three more battles ahead of me… hopefully, nothing unexpected happens.”

    Once Wu Lie loses, he will automatically relinquish his seat, and the previous battle list will naturally be invalidated.

    Fang Xing waited for half an hour, and a prompt suddenly appeared in his ears.

    A smile appeared on his face, and his figure moved.

    When he reappeared, he was already in the air above a city ruin.

    He stood on top of a tall building, looking at Wu Lie who stood on top of another tall building in the distance.

    Wu Lie’s entire body was encased in a jet-black mecha, revealing only his face under the mask. His skin appeared dark, with a pair of blue eyes.

    “Fang Xing, do you know why I chose you?”

    He moved his mecha, making a sound.

    “Because I’m a freshman and easy to bully?”

    Fang Xing guessed the answer.

    “No… because you, this face-slapping maniac, even attacked my sister mercilessly before, and I promised her that I would definitely teach you a lesson when I have the chance!”

    Wu Lie roared, and two guns suddenly appeared on his mecha’s arms: “Take my bullets!”

    *Da da!*

    *Da da!*

    Flames danced wildly, a metal bullet storm sweeping across Fang Xing’s location, only to hit the concrete wall in vain.

    *Tap tap!*

    Fang Xing leaped, his figure winding like a dragon in the air, continuously approaching Wu Lie.

    “Cloud Dragon Nine Turns Step?”

    A large amount of data appeared before Wu Lie’s eyes, the mecha’s auxiliary intelligence calculating Fang Xing’s route.

    “Don’t think you’re the only one who can fly!”

    Flames erupted from his feet, the jet-black mecha like a death god spreading its wings, soaring into the sky!
