Chapter 368 Where did this newcomer come from, overestimating himself?
Upon seeing the words "S-level mission," Jiang He immediately clicked to accept it without hesitation.
With his exceptional hand speed, he successfully won.
In addition to cultivators from Wanjue Academy, the Trial Tower mission hall also houses cultivators from other academies and even some sects.
They were just about to take a closer look at the released S-level missions when they discovered that in less than a second, the missions changed from an available status to a grayed-out unavailable status.
A wail came from the crowd:
"No way! I've been waiting for days, which cultivator has such fast hands? I'm speechless."
"That was too fast, gone in seconds. I didn't even see what this S-rank mission was."
"I'm speechless. Next time, can we fight each other before we grab something? I never manage to get anything."
"Did you see which cultivator snatched this S-rank mission?"
"Everyone, disperse. Stop looking at that matter about the youngest son of the Yue family."
"So it was that damn job."
Several cultivators with different hair colors stood in a row, with Li Songcheng's hair color being the most eye-catching. Unlike the Academy Competition, the Trial Tower account and the Star Network account are shared, and the modeling is allowed for characters connected to the Star Network.
Wan Qiziye still had his fiery red hair, and Li Songcheng and Kong Ji stood beside him.
Li Songcheng's hair color was even more flamboyant than Wan Qiziye's. From the crowd, his green hair looked like a watermelon rind covering his head, so green that it seemed as if it would emit green light at any moment.
The three gathered together; they had seen the S-level missions posted by the "Yue family" two days prior.
The Yue family is a Xuan-rank family with abundant assets. Each time they issue a mission, the reward in star coins is substantial, measured in hundreds of millions.
Li Songcheng watched helplessly as the S-level mission slipped through his fingers, muttering to himself:
"Who is it? So quick! How many years have you been single?"
Kong Ji scrolled through the quest log to check who had accepted the quest. He only saw their IDs when he got up and walked out with Wan Qi Zi Ye.
"No need to look anymore. Let's wait until the 14th. If they haven't succeeded by then, we'll come back."
Li Song quickly followed, glancing at the ID name that had accepted the Yue family's mission, and muttered to himself:
"Brother Ge, the tomato wholesaler for AAA tomatoes, that name sounds familiar."
Wait... that's not right, this isn't ginger..."
As the distance increased, Li Songcheng's voice became softer and softer.
The monks gathered in the hall complained as they refreshed their quests.
"No, who is Ge Ge, the AAA tomato wholesaler? Is he a WeChat seller? His hand speed is so fast. I don't think his cultivation level is high. He's only at the Nascent Soul stage. Can he even complete the mission? He just steals it."
"I've never heard of this cultivator's name before. I clicked into his profile and saw that this is his first time accepting a mission. Isn't this just overestimating himself?"
A monk covered in tattoos scoffed:
"Where did this newbie come from? Daring to take on an S-level mission on their first try? Aren't they afraid of dying? This mission from the Yue family has been hanging for half a year now. Each mission has a 14-day time limit. If the mission is not completed within 14 days, it is considered a failure."
At first, some newcomers even tried to take on the tasks, but they often returned terrified within two days.
Another monk standing next to the tattooed monk chimed in:
"Haha, I know about this. It's the team that took on the mission for the third time. I heard that several of them went insane. Out of five people, only the captain is still okay. Today is the 14-day deadline for the previous team. I spent the whole day waiting to see which team would dare to take it. I didn't expect so many fearless people."
"The Yue family's mission is marked as S-level, but to be precise, it's even more difficult than S-level. I bet this team will automatically terminate in no more than 5 days. The Yue family's tricks are no joke. If they're just here to level up their resumes, I advise them to give up as soon as possible. They'd be better off sending other capable people."
"What a waste of time! I think they'll come back crying in less than three days, hahaha."
A few cultivators gathered together and laughed, their faces full of disdain. Some even set up a platform in public to use as a gambling table.
Most of the cultivators in the crowd had watched the Academy Grand Competition, and many of them were students from the Myriad Absolute Academy. They recognized Jiang He's ID at a glance; she was the one who sent them the strategy guide and led them into the Academy Grand Competition.
As the commander of their Wanjue Academy, Jiang He led them to victory in the competition. Now, if anyone in Wanjue Academy hears even a bad word about Jiang He, they would be ready to roll up their sleeves and fight on the spot.
Upon hearing this, some cultivators immediately looked at the tattooed man who had initially mocked them:
"No, so what if you're a newbie? Everyone starts as a newbie. I don't think you're any better. You've taken on a few hundred F-rank missions and you think you're some experienced veteran? You should take a good look at yourself."
The tattooed man glared at the unfamiliar monk who had contradicted him, his temper flaring.
“I’ll say whatever I want. What’s your relationship with this cultivator? Instead of worrying about her, why don’t you worry about whether she can complete this mission?”
"How can you not complete it? It's you who's wasting your time gossiping. You'd be better off using that energy to cultivate. You're a piece of trash who can't even beat me. It's not your place to criticize you."
Facing the tattooed man, most of the cultivators from Wanjue Academy knew their place. They might not be able to win arguments, but when it came to fighting, they were all sword cultivators; they would rather fight than talk.
The tattooed man and the cultivator next to him quickly noticed the Wanjue Academy school badge that the two of them were deliberately showing.
It's from the Wanjue Academy.
Wan Jue has the most sword cultivators and is also the most warlike. Once you get caught up in a fight with them, you'll be skinned alive.
He must have been thinking too much to challenge the sword cultivators from the Myriad Absolutes Academy to a duel.
The tattooed man cursed inwardly, thinking, "Who knew this newcomer would be so ruthless?"
"I still have missions to take on. Unlike you guys who are so free, I'm very busy." He stubbornly refused and left in a hurry.
Those other cultivators in the mission hall who recognized Jiang He's ID also knew that Jiang He was the commander of the Wanjue Academy cultivators who won first place in this year's competition. Those who didn't know him also found out by listening to other people's discussions.
Winning first place in the university competition still carries weight, and the waves of ridicule and mockery subsided until they disappeared.
Some cultivators who had never seen the Academy Grand Competition specifically looked up information about Jiang He.
They found that Jiang He's homepage was empty. Only after being redirected to the title page did they discover that Jiang He's ID was followed by a series of titles they had never seen before.
"Monster Slayer," "Dungeon Terminator," "Dungeon Complete Guide," "Butcher," "Dungeon Fusion Concept," "Grand Tournament MVP"...
The titles, arranged in several columns, were dazzling.
"Wow, look at Brother Ge's title list! There are titles from the Trial Tower and titles from the Academy Competition. There are so many! This is the first time I've seen so many titles, and every single one of them is rare."
"No way, Wanqi Ziye doesn't even have this many titles. Who is this Brother Ge? I need to go watch her competition videos."
"It seems to be a sword cultivation major from the Wanjue Academy, her name is Jiang He, I think."
Upon seeing Jiang He's title, most cultivators swallowed back the sarcasm that was on the tip of their tongues.
Just by looking at the conditions for achieving certain titles, you can tell how difficult they are to obtain. For example, the "Complete Dungeon Compendium" title requires challengers to successfully complete all dungeons from the second to the seventh floor of any Trial Tower.
After receiving the task, Jiang He pondered the details, automatically blocking out the outside world.
Long Aotian crouched down, his head bowed, holding his sword in his arms:
"Team up?"
