The next day, Meng Chao revealed his application to his teachers and classmates.

No one was surprised by his choice.

Agricultural University’s canteen was famous for providing an abundance of rich food. Meng Chao could not execute a lot of skills, so if he joined the martial arts course in Agricultural University and trained until he was covered in tough muscles, then put some beast souls in his body, he could use that one skill to rule over the entire world.

Demon Yan found it a waste because of his gun technique, but he still enthusiastically invited Meng Chao to go for an exchange in the military school.

The current power layout of the schools of higher learning in Dragon City was this: One great university, and five super universities.

The great aristocratic university, Dragon City University, stood at the top.

Then, there were the five famous universities—Agricultural University, University of Technology, Medical University, University of Science, and military school.

Dragon City University was located in the west, and it was a traditional university. It took up nearly 666 hectares of land. It had its own cultivation center, research center, and even a weapons production factory.

The five famous universities were located in the east, where was the new university town. They formed an alliance to fight against Dragon City University.

The five universities were really close to each other. They were either separated by a single wall or by a few roads. Since they had a mutual “enemy” in Dragon City University, their relationship with each other was pretty good, and they often exchanged what they had learned.

Meng Chao was very thankful toward Demon Yan’s enthusiastic invitation, and he told Ning Shewo about his choice.

Ning Shewo found it a pity that he did not major in the resource course.

But everyone had their own aspirations, and he could not force him to take a certain course. Besides, with Meng Chao’s marks, he could register for a few of the elective classes in the resource course. In any case, he was in Agricultural University, so his studies would not be delayed.

When Yan Organization’s Ripple Princess learned that Meng Chao had woken up, she brought a fruit basket to visit him in the morning.

Upon learning that he did not choose to join Dragon City University’s martial arts course, she found it a great pity.

But Dragon City University was truly not the best choice for broken-star superhumans.

She could only lament that even the gods were jealous of genii. Meng Chao was the true successor of the Old Fire Relayer, but he had to be “reduced” to going to a “place like” Dragon City University’s martial arts course.

Honestly, Meng Chao did not quite like being close to Yan Feirou

When it came to internet celebrities, his attitude toward them had always been “you can watch them, but don’t toy with them”.

He felt that the Ripple Princess was too calculative, and after talking to her, he felt a little tired.

For example, when Yan Feirou came to visit him, she never forgot to beat around the bush while checking whether the Old Fire Relayer had any treatment plans for him.

Meng Chao did not want to reveal too much information about the Old Fire Relayer.

After his parents came, he said that he had to be discharged and sent Yan Feirou back home.

His dignified and upright expression shocked Bai Jiacao. She even asked him quietly, “Big Brother, do you only like watching that big sister through your phone or your laptop? Do you not know how to handle the real deal when you see her in the flesh?”

Before her older brother could hit her, the girl quickly hid behind her parents and pulled a face at him.

Meng Chao was so angry that he gnashed his teeth, but he did not have the time or energy to settle with Bai Jiacao.

After he completed the procedures to be discharged, he went to a meeting.

Construction High’s student council president, Luo Hai, had invited him to the Supernatural Tower so that he could complete the registration process for superhumans.

“When you look at the Supernatural Tower from here, it really looks grand!”

Half an hour later, Meng Chao appeared in the citizen market before the Supernatural Market. He looked up, and he almost broke his neck trying to see the building’s top.

The Supernatural Tower reached for the skies. It was like a space elevator in a geosynchronous orbit. It could bring humans from the surface of the planet to the endless galaxy.

But of course, that was impossible.

For the time being, the Earthlings in Dragon City did not have the ability to launch satellites and start a search beyond the ozone of the Other World.

The weather forecast station had once tried to send a few hot air balloons meant for observational purposes past the ozone layer to take panoramic pictures of the Other World.

It would have helped the Earthlings to understand what sort of planet they had transmigrated to.

But all the hot air balloons burst in some strange way or another right above the ozone layer.

It was as if there was some mysterious force that prevented them from exploring the planet.

Many Heaven Realm and Deity Realm elites had the ability to perform magnetic levitation. They could use the mutual repulsion from their own magnetic field and the planet’s magnetic field to cancel the influence of gravity and rise into the air.

But even they experienced obstacles when they reached the ozone layer and could not rise past it.

When they tried to force themselves past it, they were injured heavily. They felt like they had just plummeted tens of thousands of meters into the ocean and suffered a great pressure that had a force of hundreds of millions of tons. Their eyeballs and organs exploded.

The Supernatural Tower, which pierced into the sky like a sharp blade, was the highest observation tower of the transmigrators.

For the time being, they could only see endless fog.

The square was packed.

Many citizens lined up and waited to go inside the Supernatural Tower to visit it.

There was a large area in the Supernatural Tower open for all citizens.

If they were willing to spend money, they could also ride the special maglev platform and reach the area above the one hundredth floor. Then, they could see all of Dragon City and Monster Mountain Range, which was shrouded in fog.

Of course, the core areas were only open to superhumans, and there was a strict requirement to their realms to be able to access these areas.

Only when they reached certain levels were they able to enter certain floors.

Those who reached Deity Realm were the only ones who could enter the highest level of the Supernatural Tower.

“When you stand at the top of the Supernatural Tower, you can see a scene that has no comparison.”

This was the motivation behind why many of the Dragon City youths trained hard.

Aside from normal visitors, Meng Chao also saw some peers who were dressed lavishly and had impressive presences.

Regardless of whether they were boys or girls, all of them were strong and tall. Their bodies were surrounded by spirit energy that looked like smoke. Their eyes were full of life, and they did not bother to hide the profound and complicated spirit tattoos on their skin.

They were the same as Meng Chao. All of them were new superhumans who had come to be registered.

They had just entered the path of superhumans, and they had yet to learn how to restrain, suppress, and accumulate spirit energy. Hence, the energy easily ran amok in their spirit meridians, which made it show up on their skins and form beautiful, sparkling patterns.

Most didn’t even want to control their spirit energy, though. Instead, they arrogantly boasted about how different they were compared to everyone else.

‘So many of my peers became superhumans?’ Meng Chao sighed.

July and August had always been the superhuman season for Dragon City.

The new generation of the aristocratic families would become superhumans after their national college examinations. This was a norm.

Before the national college examination, the teenagers had not become mature in terms of their bodies and temperaments, and their growth as well as emotions had not stabilized yet. If anyone tried to make them grow up faster, it was far too easy for them to end up being normal people despite showing great promise while they were young.

In fact, there were even genii at the age of twelve or thirteen who had become superhumans in the past. Yet their minds gradually deviated from righteousness, and they became irredeemable villains.

As time went by, the national college examination became the standard measurement.

The aristocratic people who performed well during the national college examination would be supported by their families. They would be sent to a cultivation room with all the facilities and would have a lot of resources that would allow them to break through the limit of their lives.

As he watched them, Meng Chao felt really complicated emotions.

He had worked hard in the wild and nearly died together with the Bloody Moon Demon King. It had taken a lot of effort for him to become a superhuman, yet he ended up with problems in his main meridians, which he would have to deal with in the future.

The aristocratic disciples, in comparison, just stayed in their houses with Heaven Realm or even Deity Realm elites protecting them. With highly valuable cultivation machines and gene medicine, they could become superhumans safely, effectively, and steadily.

He looked at the dazzling spirit tattoos on their hands and feet. They had cleared dozens of main meridians.

Meng Chao could not help but feel a little jealous.

But he was currently much more level-headed than when he had just been reborn.

At that time, he thought that Zuo Haoran was the one who caused his tragic fate, and he was filled with hostility toward the rich and the aristocratic children. He really wanted to climb to the peak as soon as possible and stomp on these people.

When he thought about it now, when the apocalypse arrived, regardless of whether they were the rich or poor, regardless of whether they stayed in Dragon City No. 1 or the public renting houses, everything was reduced to powder, and no one managed to escape.

All of them were ants on the same piece of string. An appropriate amount of face slapping would help them grow, but there was no need for him to grit his teeth and target them.

‘You’re rich, and I have a cheat with me! We can be considered to be fighting fairly and squarely!’ Meng Chao smiled.

“Meng Chao!”

Luo Hai appeared with a smile.

The Construction High student council president was a completely different person when compared to when he took his national college examination.

Overnight, he had grown by close to eight centimeters and gained some thirty kilograms of muscle. His eyes were lively, and his skin shone with a metallic light. He was beginning to resemble his father, Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu.

“Luo Hai, you awakened too?” Meng Chao sized him up, smiled, and said, “Your hands and feet are surrounded by spirit tattoos. Looks like you’ve cleared quite a lot of spirit meridians!”

“It’s all thanks to you that I’ve managed to clear sixty-one main meridians. Now, I can somewhat compete against those prodigies in the martial arts course in Dragon City University.”

Luo Hai was a very sensible person. He knew that Meng Chao had not cleared a lot of spirit meridians, so he was worried that he would end up splashing salt on his wound.

“Meng Chao, I asked to meet you here today because I really wanted to thank you,” he quickly said.

“You know that my father is the Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu, right? When it comes to cultivation, this naturally brings me a lot of benefits, but you might not know that my father has fifteen children, and I’m not the son he favors the most. I face a lot of competition in my family.”

Meng Chao was a little shocked. Then, he came to an understanding.

Dragon City was always engaged in fights, and the death rate for adult males was very high. The ratio between men and women was imbalanced, and their views regarding marriage and offsprings were no longer the same as when they were on Earth.

They lived in an era that worshipped the strong and where people longed for powerful genes to be passed to the next generation. It was not strange then for a Heaven Realm elite to have around twenty descendants.

In fact, there were people who believed that peerless elites should spread their seeds more so that their powerful genes would be passed down. This was their responsibility to protect civilization.

And there were quite a lot of powerful elites who upheld this belief. They had around fifty children, making them even greater than the emperors during ancient times.

Such “aristocratic children” were actually somewhat pitiful.

“Meng Chao, you can laugh if you want, but when I was sent to the wild, I was actually very alarmed, and I really wanted to run in the direction of the city. If I had done that, even if I had managed to protect my life, I wouldn’t have gained my father’s favor.”

Luo Hai smiled wryly. “My father is as stubborn, harsh, and merciless as his Soul Breaking Saber. If my performance didn’t please him, he would definitely not help me become a superhuman.

“The fighting courses in the universities are filled with competitions since the start. We have to fight for resources, lecturers, and all sorts of practical tasks. We have to fight for good food that is filled with spirit energy and for dormitories filled with spirit energy. We have to fight for everything.

“Whoever manages to awaken to supernatural abilities before the semester starts and is the first to stand out will have all sorts of advantages, while whoever enters the university as a normal person will probably end up dead last forever.

“There are many among my friends who have become superhumans. If I entered university as a normal person, I’d never be able to be their opponent, and my life would have been ruined.

“It’s all thanks to you gathering us together, motivating us, and leading us to launch a counterattack that I killed quite a lot of Demonic Bloody Moon Wolves. It also helped me gain my father’s recognition, and now, I have the ability to fight against those prodigies! Thank you!”

He sounded really sincere.

Meng Chao smiled and said, “We only managed to break out of the encirclement because we fought together. There’s no need for you to be so polite to me. If someone actually needs to thank anyone, it’s me who should be thanking you.

“Your father got me a lot of precious materials and super gene medicine that you can’t get in the market. That’s why I was able to wake up so soon. Otherwise, it’d have been really bad for me if I couldn’t make it to the opening ceremony.”

“It’s a pity that we didn’t manage to repair your main meridians for you...”

Regret shone in Luo Hai’s eyes. But soon, he changed the topic and looked at the towering Supernatural Tower. “Meng Chao, do you know that there is an ancient ruin under the Supernatural Tower?”
