Chapter 135: Chapter 134: Why

"There are additional points for the top three!"

And soon, the scores of the three people below quickly refreshed.

Xu Lingjun, for risking his life to save others, gained 30 points, and for contributing to the resistance against the mysterious races of the heavens in the disaster-stricken Qingzhou City, gained another 30 points, for a total score of 1545!

That’s right, Qingzhou City has already been destroyed.

Below Han Yun City.

It shows that on the Polar Star Battlefield, a thousand mysterious races of the heavens were killed, earning 200 merit points and exchanged for 200 points!

Below Zhou Mu’s score, an additional score appears: Interstellar navigation, breaking into the lair of Pirate King Roger Sparrow, assisting in the capture of the Interstellar Pirate King, exchanged for 150 points!

The crowd was silent.

Isn’t this scoring method a bit exaggerated?

Killing a thousand mysterious races of the heavens on the Polar Star Battlefield and exchanging all merit points for additional points... that’s the frontline of battles between Blue Star and the cosmos, an extremely dangerous place.

Since they still need to take the Dragon Gate Examination, they must be no older than 20.

Yet a young person under 20 has already slain over a thousand mysterious races of the heavens.

And although another is not as exaggerated as the one from Han Yun City, Blue Star has indeed maintained good relations with many mysterious races of the heavens, and interstellar pirates have always brought great trouble to Blue Star.

It’s surprising that a young person under twenty could assist in capturing Pirate King Roger Sparrow, which, though not as difficult as killing mysterious races of the heavens, is still a matter of life and death... the points are high but deserved due to the contribution to Blue Star.

It’s actually understandable.

But even so...

"I feel like the candidates this year are truly extraordinary."

"Don’t you think it’s amazing? This guy, Xu Lingjun, only got an additional 60 points, yet he can still outshine the one who got 200 extra points and remain in first place."

"Just luck, he only saved a person and got 30 points... as for the other thirty, it’s merely benefiting from Qingzhou City’s misfortune."

"Luck is also a kind of strength, who knew Qingzhou City would fall at this time?"

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

Looking at those added scores...

"Damn, that’s impressive."

Zong Xiaoping, who specifically came to see the scores, couldn’t help but give a long sigh; his written test scored 470, with a total of 1142, which is quite impressive.

But compared to this...

No wonder Instructor Gu Xi didn’t fancy me, I shouldn’t have aimed to compete with such prodigies.

At this moment.

Watching the scores refresh on the phone, Xu Lingjun couldn’t help but be stunned and asked, "Who are these Han Yun City and Zhou Mu? How did they get such high additional scores..."

"Probably fought for it with their lives."

Wang Qingya said, "But even without these 200 and 150 points, their Martial Tao scores wouldn’t be inferior to Xiaojun’s. Like this Han Yun City, who seems to be applying to Dongxu Martial Mansion, his martial test score is 831, even higher than Xiaojun by a few points. Being able to join the Polar Star Battlefield at such a young age, these two must have extraordinary backgrounds."

Xu Lingjun nodded, understanding Wang Qingya’s point.

Not everyone is a prodigy; his high cultural test score just gave him an advantage to take first place... but for a martial artist, passing the written test is enough, though more is important, the martial test is far more significant.

"But my opponents have never been them, I just need to surpass myself."

Xu Lingjun sighed, saying, "But Li Jingjun is quite unfortunate; she was originally in second place... now she’s directly bumped to fourth. If she had any additional points..."

If Li Jingjun gained 200 points, she might have jumped directly to first place.

It’s quite a pity.

At this moment.

Thousands of miles away.

In the Great Xia Empire.

In Yuzhang City.

The Li Family, a long-standing power based there, almost the entire Yuzhang City could be considered under their control... it could be said that with a word from the Li Family, no industry, organization, company, or power could survive there.

After all, as a Martial Arts Family, the Li Family has over a hundred years of legacy, producing three Upper Realm Grandmasters in four generations, and even a Creation Realm Grandmaster.

In terms of strength and economy, the Li Family is almost a colossus.

If Qingzhou City had such a Martial Arts Family, no matter how many Chi Yu mysterious clan there were, they wouldn’t dare act so wantonly there.

At this moment.

In the practice room, Li Jingjun was soaked as if she was washed with water, her entire body covered in sweat, slumped on the ground, unable to move.

The training clothes on her back were already ragged from lashes, with bloody red welts crisscrossing, looking shocking.

The whip soaked in salt water, driven by True Qi, could inflict maximum pain on her without damaging her bones.

A full fifty lashes were given.

She no longer had the strength to stand up.

The person holding the whip was a woman, about forty to fifty years old, with eyes like a hawk’s, filled with sharpness, making people dare not look at her.

She walked up to Li Jingjun and said, "Your academic performance dropped. You promised me you would outperform that Xu Lingjun... but you scored more than a hundred points less than him, over a hundred points, you’ve utterly shamed the Li Family. The extra twenty lashes are a punishment for your overestimation of your abilities."

Li Jingjun weakly replied, "I’m sorry."

"I’m tired of hearing your apologies. The Li Family’s face has been completely lost by you, can’t compare with Zhou Mu, can’t compare with Han Yun City, even suppressed by a commoner, fourth place... who gave you the face to still bear the Li surname?"

Li Fufeng coldly looked at her only granddaughter.

Her eyes full of disdain and contempt, she said coldly, "The Li Family provides you with the highest-grade cultivation techniques, the finest martial skills, unlimited Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and resources, and this is the unimpressive performance you give back to us? On usual days, I could still tolerate you, but you should know the significance behind your enrollment this time... Is this performance presentable?"

Li Jingjun was silent for a moment, then said, "I’m sorry, Grandma."

"You should be thankful that our Li Family in your generation has only you as the successor, so you have another chance. If you still can’t surpass that Xu Lingjun, don’t blame me, as your grandmother, for being ruthless. If there’s no value in grooming, we can only abandon you and use your womb to help us nurture a more outstanding heir."

Saying this, Li Fufeng seriously pondered and said, "That Xu Lingjun seems quite suitable, good looks, not a bad aptitude, and a commoner too. If his genes were combined with our Li Family’s bloodline, a more outstanding bloodline than yours would certainly be born. While I’m still young, I don’t mind bringing him into the family, letting you both have a child for me to raise from scratch, do you understand?"

Li Jingjun was stunned upon hearing this, an unwilling look appeared in her eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "I will win, Grandma, please believe in me."

"Then work hard. If you don’t want to become a breeding machine in the latter half of your life, use your own power to secure your future. The Li Family has given you everything, your future is yours to decide."

Li Fufeng paused, then said, "Oh, Xiaoyun."

"Patriarch."

Beside them, a young maid in her early twenties bowed respectfully.

Li Fufeng said indifferently, "Dispose of that cat in the young lady’s room, dissipating ambitions by playing, no wonder the grades are so poor. Earlier your performance wasn’t bad, I could tolerate an extra pet in your room, but now... humph..."

Li Jingjun closed her eyes, but her breathing involuntarily grew heavier.

"If you dare to cry, I’ll hit you with another fifty lashes."

Li Fufeng looked at her granddaughter, sighed lightly, and said, "Don’t blame me for being hard-hearted, the Li Family has four generations of grandmasters, and in your generation, you are the only seedling. Grandma knows the pressure on you is immense, I went through the same. You just need to endure ten more years... Jingjun, you need to understand the meaning of your name."

"Yes, I understand, abandoning all distractions for a single goal."

"When you become an Upper Realm Grandmaster in the future, everything in the Li Family will be yours to control. You can even drive me out of the Li Family then if you wish."

Li Fufeng said indifferently, "But before that, Li Jingjun, what you need to do now is to turn all your resentment into motivation, hate your own weakness, hate me, your grandmother, for being heartless... If you don’t want to become Xu Lingjun’s plaything, tormented day and night by him, then work hard in your cultivation to surpass him."

"Yes, I will surpass him."

"Xiaoyun, apply the medicine for the young lady."

"Yes."

Xiaoyun responded.

Li Fufeng left.

After making sure she was far away, Xiaoyun, who had previously remained calm, suddenly changed her demeanor.

Rushed over with urgency, she carefully embraced Li Jingjun, looking at her back, beaten to a pulp, her eyes couldn’t help but redden, choking with emotion, "How could the Patriarch be so cruel, young lady, you’re just a girl..."

Li Jingjun weakly smiled, softly said, "It’s okay, after applying the medicine, it will recover."

"But they can’t beat you to death, they used to take half a life with thirty lashes, and now they’ve whipped you with fifty lashes, that bastard Xu Lingjun, he..."

"Sister Yun!"

Li Jingjun softly said, "He is indeed more outstanding than me, losing to him I admit it willingly, it’s not anyone’s fault."

"But..."

"I will win back, don’t worry, I will win back, but Sister Yun, I have a request."

Li Jingjun grabbed Xiaoyun’s arm.

Xiaoyun nodded, seriously said, "I understand, the Patriarch told me to dispose of it, but she didn’t say it must be killed, leave it to me."

"Thank you, Sister Yun."

"You’re welcome, such a poor child... you previously requested to go to the Polar Star Battlefield to train, but the Patriarch refused. Now others have earned extra points through the Polar Star Battlefield, but she blames it on you. With your strength, if you went to the Polar Star Battlefield, you could surely kill more than a thousand mysterious races of the heavens."

"That really depends on luck, maybe you could get hit by stray bullets as soon as you went up. Grandma has her reasons for not letting me go, that Han Yun City was allowed because he was already abandoned... I can’t go, I understand."

Li Jingjun bit her lip unwillingly, not sure if it was because of the pain from the medicine applied to her wounds or the unwillingness in her heart.

She said she understood.

But among the four, she was the only one who didn’t get bonus points and lost to Xu Lingjun. She admits defeat willingly...

Losing isn’t scary, she will work hard to win next time.

But losing to the other two, why?
