I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything

Close to two thousand points as a score.

Han Yun City wasn't overly pleased, only nodding slightly towards a few mentors before heading to one side.

"Hmm, not bad, not bad."

Li Tianlai stroked his beard with satisfaction and said, "The kid is still quite good. Though he's arrogant, his pride is only towards his opponents. Facing those mentors who might not even match his strength, he is still courteous, which shows his nature isn't bad."

Liu Zhiyuan frowned and said, "No one thinks he's bad, it's just his identity that shouldn't be so flamboyant."

"Have you ever asked him if he wants to be flamboyant?"

Li Tianlai glanced at Liu Zhiyuan and said, "Xiao Yuan, you're being narrow-minded."

"Yes, Elder Li, you've taught me well."

Liu Zhiyuan nodded respectfully, but his expression was dismissive. Clearly, you're criticizing me, I go along with you, then stubbornly refuse to change.

And Han Yun City walked aside and quietly waited.

"Ha, it looks like he feels the pressure."

Zhou Qianmo said, "Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion has Xu Lingjun and Li Jingjun, Nanyun Martial Mansion has Zhou Mu. He won't easily monopolize the top."

"Let's just watch quietly."

The few of them fell silent, watching as each student below had their scores tallied first. Some showed disappointment, others were ecstatic with joy.

It's important to know that the academic credit score is just the beginning. Along with gaining credits, the meat of these Demon Beasts becomes the property of the slayer. Selling it could at least fetch equal if not greater value.

In other words, compared to ordinary Secret Realms, it's virtually double the experience.

And below, there were constant reports going on.

"Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion student Zuo Bufan, 823 academic credits!"

"Central City Martial Mansion student Lin Suyun, 792 academic credits!"

"Nanyun Martial Mansion student Li Zhong'Er, 1280 academic credits!"

............

The calls echoed, with most students scoring between 300 to 500 credits, while outstanding students scored around 800 credits.

To reach over a thousand, you would have to be the pride of the Martial Mansion.

But for someone like Han Yun City, who directly scored close to two thousand, there wasn't even one, the gap being a few hundred points wide, a gap impossible to surpass.

After all, Han Yun City was fighting on foreign grounds, unfamiliar with the environment which actually cost him quite a bit.

"Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion student Li Jingjun, 1942 points!"

All those students who had come out were astonished, even Han Yun City looked over in surprise.

She was only a few points less than him.

In fact, if not for one of the Demon Beasts Han Yun City killed being pregnant, counting the small ones as beasts too, the girl's score might have been a few points higher than his.

Although Han Yun City knew his own situation, knowing his harvest in the first few days was all taken by Xu Lingjun.

However, to get such a high score...

That Xu Lingjun's girlfriend is quite capable.

In the center of everyone's attention, Li Jingjun remained composed, not showing any regret or frustration for being merely a few points behind Han Yun City. Even the sympathetic gazes from the other students didn't move her.

For her, the only opponent to surpass was herself. She had already gained experience and strength in the Secret Realm, rankings meant nothing.

The true gain is what is absorbed into the body.

"Not bad, neither arrogant nor rash, the Li Family has produced an excellent young lady."

Liu Zhiyuan praised with appreciation.

Zhou Qianmo lamented, "What a shame, only a few points difference... This girl lost only in fortune, why couldn't she be pregnant?"

Liu Zhiyuan looked up in surprise and asked, "What?"

"I mean, why couldn't she kill a pregnant Demon Beast?"

"That's true, but with this score, it's enough to keep Han Yun City from monopolizing the top."

They stopped talking and continued watching those students looking at their own scores; some were hammering their heads and stomping their feet, while others were filled with ecstatic joy.

In short, the Secret Realm of the Four Mansions could be considered the only reasonable way for these students to earn credits.

So naturally, they worked extra hard, and the gains were consequently remarkable.

In the blink of an eye... four hours had passed.

When Xu Lingjun came out.

Instantly, he attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone stared almost stupefied at the two corpses on his back. He was the only one who brought corpses out instead of being empty-handed, seemingly valuing these two so much that he didn't even want the mentors to help.

And these two Demon Beasts were clearly...

Ice Snow Leopards.

The King Without a Crown of the Outer Realm of the Ice Snow Realm!

And there were two of them.

Instantly, exclamations filled the examination hall!

Along with shocked cries.

"He, he, he... how did he do that?"

"A Level 7 Demon Beast Ice Snow Leopard, one has strength no less than a Profound Realm Martial Artist, and there are two of them. How did he manage that?"

"Two Level 7 Demon Beasts, how many credits is that worth?"

"According to the rules, a Level 7 Demon Beast is worth 600 academic credits. Not counting anything else, just handling these two Level 7 Demon Beasts brings him to 1200 credits. If he collected anything else, this crushes everyone, doesn't it?"

The crowd burst into exclamations, leaving Liu Zhiyuan and Zhou Qianmo in shock.

Even Han Yun City looked at Xu Lingjun with amazement, clearly not expecting that in just a few days, this guy managed to take down two Level 7 Demon Beasts. Killing a Level 7 Demon Beast was something he could manage if well-prepared, but facing two of them...

But remembering this guy's thick, impenetrable skin, he thought again, two so what?

Even if it's two hundred, as long as they couldn't pierce his skin, eventually they'd all be exhausted to death, wouldn't they?

It didn't seem like a big deal to exhaust two Level 7 Demon Beasts to death.

Xu Lingjun threw a bunch of beast ears to the ground, then piled the corpses there too, saying, "Come on, tally up my credits quickly, the Ice Snow Leopard's body doesn't do well in heat. I need to get them to refrigeration immediately."

"Oh, oh, oh."

Several mentors went up to start counting individually.

And were shocked to find that Xu Lingjun really had an abundant harvest of Demon Beasts slain—flying in the sky, swimming in the sea, crawling on the ground, and even some Cannibal Fish he picked up. These Headhunter Piranhas always moved in schools, they wondered how he managed it.

Finally.

Several mentors seriously calculated, and one of them raised a hand and said, "Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion student Xu Lingjun, 3148 points!"

As soon as these words fell.

Everyone was plunged into an eerie silence.

3148 points?

At this moment, Xu Lingjun suddenly remembered something and asked, "Right, if I didn't successfully kill a Demon Beast but heavily injured it and cut off its arm, does it count as credits?"

The mentor said, "If a Demon Beast isn't killed, it doesn't count."

"Is that so, what a pity."

Xu Lingjun said regretfully, "Looks like the meat from the skinned Demon Beast won't exchange for credits, better keep it for myself."

Meanwhile, on the viewing platform, Liu Zhiyuan couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter, laughing, "Good, good, Xu Lingjun didn't disappoint me after all. Two Level 7 Demon Beasts, this kid did a fantastic job; surely the first place is indisputable now. Old Zhou, even if your grandson hasn't come out yet, I fear he can't score this high?"

"That may not be."

Zhou Qianmo thought to himself, with the Primordial Martial Pill's ten desperate opportunities, killing two Level 7 Demon Beasts doesn't seem that challenging. It just depends on whether Xiaomu would be this aggressive... But given his nature of meticulousness, it's likely.

He smiled, "No matter what the score is, I am certain Xiaomu won't be inferior to Xu Lingjun in the slightest."

"Why hasn't Director Xia come out yet?"

Tai Zhengyuan was already feeling uneasy and asked worriedly, "By now, more than half the students have returned. If he's concerned about the students' safety, he should have come out by now, why is there no sign of him?"

"Hmph, so typical, maybe he got lost who knows? As the Director of Central City Martial Mansion, surely he couldn't have met a master in the Secret Realm and got killed, right?"

Liu Zhiyuan taunted, "Or perhaps he provoked someone he shouldn't have, got buried in the ice river, and fed to the fish?"

"Nothing good ever comes from a dog's mouth!"

Tai Zhengyuan sneered, "If any student really had the ability to defeat and kill Director Xia, do you believe I'd swallow those fish whole? Looking down on Central City Martial Mansion like this, do you really think there's no one here?"
