In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 139 Popularity Ranking? The Book of Life and Death of the King of Hell! (Fourth update, please vote!)
After witnessing Taihua High School's performance, the other six high schools besides Yaoxing High School immediately reacted.

They temporarily abandoned their plan to besiege Yaoxing High School and instead began to surround the students from Taihua High School.

However, due to the lack of trust among the six schools, they were far apart and did not cooperate sincerely.

Looking at this scene where the world seems to be against him (don't ask where the enemies came from), Su Yuan remained calm and unhurried.

He looked up at the popularity chart and said calmly:
"Everyone, I'm going to take the top spot on the popularity chart."

"And if you want to be number one, nothing is more effective than personally eliminating the candidates who are more popular than me."

"Those who make it into the top ten of the popularity chart are either good-looking, popular, talented, or a combination of all three."

"I will challenge you one by one, and no matter what army stands in your way, I will eliminate you."

After making this declaration of war, Su Yuan raised his hand and pointed at a high school student with a silly expression and a gentle, anime protagonist vibe.

"First of all, it's you, Liang Yunyun, right?"

"You, a mere extra, are more popular than me? I'm going to take you down first!"

Before the students from the six major high schools could even launch their attack, Su Yuan led his army directly towards Liang Yunyun.

Liang Yunyun's high school is called Chilu High School, which is said to be one of the top five high schools in the city, but its actual ranking is estimated to be eighth.

They were already inferior to Taihua High School, and when faced with the transformed Taihua High School Special Class, they were simply crushed!
Upon seeing this, two female high school students at the ninth level of Qi Refining immediately stood in front of Liang Yunyun from among the Chilu examinees.

"Xiao Liang, you go first and join the other high school students. We'll hold off Su Yuan for you."

"Liang Yunyun, I'm not doing this for you. I just want to teach that devil Su Yuan a lesson. You should leave now and not get in my way!"

"Everyone……"

Looking at the two female classmates in front of her, one gentle and the other proud, Liang Yunyun couldn't help but show a touch of emotion.

Having only reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, he hesitated for a while before deciding to follow their advice and first join the candidates from other schools to fight against the Soviet Union together.

But before he could even move, suddenly, an electric shock-like sensation surged through his entire body.

His body stiffened instantly, as if he had been frozen in place by a spell, remaining completely still.

"Liang Yunyun, you're still standing there..."

Upon seeing this, the proud girl angrily rebuked her.

But at that moment, a cold and eerie voice suddenly entered their ears.

Want to know why he was stunned?

Su Yuan appeared before the two girls like a ghost.

The proud and beautiful girl's eyes flashed with anger, and she lashed out with a whip kick toward Su Yuan's face.

"too slow."

Su Yuan casually raised his hand and grabbed the arrogant girl's ankle.

Relying on the daily tempering of his physical body with the Undying Sword Body, coupled with the combat power boost from the Rage Heart Attack, Su Yuan's strength has far surpassed that of an ordinary Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivator.

The moment he grabbed the proud girl's ankle, the abyssal spiritual power slithered into her body like a serpent.

Increase your body's sensitivity a hundredfold!
"Well……"

The proud young girl trembled violently. The moment Su Yuan released her ankle, she collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud. Her beautiful eyes, which should have been haughty, widened and lost their luster.

Su Yuan didn't even glance at the beautiful girl. He used his hand as a fork to grab another gentle and beautiful girl who was shocked and bewildered.

A cloud of pitch-black mist was exhaled from Su Yuan's mouth and entered the girl's mouth and nose.

The girl's terrified gaze gradually turned blank, and she finally bowed respectfully to Su Yuan:

"Meet the leader."

Su Yuan ignored the other party and slowly walked up to Liang Yunyun, whose face was flushed.

The reason why this person remained frozen in place was quite simple—Su Yuan had greatly enhanced his physical sensitivity through the spiritual power of the abyss, while simultaneously applying the Demonic Art of Fingering to Liang Yunyun.

If he dared to move even slightly, he would probably lose control of his bladder on the spot.

"First."

Su Yuan raised his finger and aimed it at Liang Yunyun's brow, gently releasing a sword aura.

A small wound immediately appeared between Liang Yunyun's eyebrows, but according to the light membrane's judgment, this sword energy was enough to kill Liang Yunyun.

Liang Yunyun is eliminated.

The so-called popularity rankings are now like the King of Hell's little notebook, writing down whoever's name and whoever's name is destined to die.

Only then did the Taihua High School student contingent finally arrive, taking the two beautiful girls as captives while launching a fierce attack on the remaining students of Chilu High School.

"Xiao Meng, let's go."

Su Yuan abandoned the remaining students of Chilu High School and, taking only his strongest fighter Xiao Meng, charged towards the eighth place on the popularity chart.

The eighth most popular student is Wang Baiji, the top student in his grade from Qian Suan High School.

This is an ordinary-looking young man who has reached eighth place on the popularity chart entirely through his own abilities.

It doesn't refer to combat capability, but rather command and coordination capabilities.

Qian Suan High School is a high school that specializes in cultivating management talents, and it is also Chen Xian's alma mater.

Wang Baiji did not tarnish the reputation of their school.

While Su Yuan was dealing with Chilu High School, he had already persuaded Heilong High School, one of the eight schools specializing in sports, to join forces with him. This fragile commander was now hiding among a group of black-skinned, white-socked sports students.

The alliance between the two schools meant that if Su Yuan wanted to defeat Wang Baiji, he would have to break through the defenses of more than seventy late-stage Qi Refining candidates.

This is a task that a Qi Refining cultivator could hardly accomplish.

"Xiao Meng, give it your all!"

Su Yuan gave instructions to the girl beside him.

The next second, the Yin Fire spiritual power within Xiao Meng's body began to boil.

Countless eerie purple fireballs, carrying light and heat, flew out from the girl's body, heading towards Wang Baiji's location like a rain of fire.

Each fireball possesses the characteristic of never going out, and its firepower is far stronger than Xiao Kong's black fire.

Back then, Xiao Kong's black fire could be temporarily blocked by simply coating it with a layer of spiritual energy, but Xiao Meng's flames were like concentrated sulfuric acid, capable of instantly corroding the spiritual energy coating on the target's body.

This is the absolute dominance of a genius who simultaneously possesses a Dharma lineage, a spiritual body, and family heritage over ordinary cultivators of the same level.

Although the dark-skinned athletes were physically strong enough, they dared not ignore the threat of the fireball and had to devote a lot of their attention to defending against it.

There were some oversights in Wang Baiji's protection.

Su Yuan flashed forward and charged directly at Wang Baiji through the gap in the defense.

A dark-skinned physical education student at the eighth level of Qi Refining attacked Su Yuan. Su Yuan neither dodged nor avoided, and instead shot out a sword aura condensed from the Demon Heart Sword Seed.

Unsurprisingly, the dark-skinned PE student was eliminated by a single strike.

But there were just too many opponents. As soon as he dealt with one dark-skinned sports student, more sports students surrounded him.

The Nine Swords of Taixu!

Nine condensed sword energies shot out from Su Yuan's acupoints, meeting the three physical education students one by one. Two swords struck the chest and one the tip of the sword, instantly killing all three once again.

"Squad Leader Wang, Su Yuan is attacking. He's far too strong. What should we do?"

Beside Wang Baiji, a student from Qiansuan High School said anxiously.

The former, however, remained calm and even laughed out loud.

Why is the squad leader laughing?

The students at Qiansuan High School were somewhat bewildered.

Then Wang Baiji laughed and said:
"I'm not laughing at anything else, but at Su Yuan, this kid who has all the skills but no strategy whatsoever."

"Just look at each sword strike he unleashes; they are powerful, but how much spiritual energy do they consume?"

"Even if Su Yuan possesses a special lineage, has extremely refined spiritual power, and has received the true teachings of Master Taibai, it would be impossible for him to kill all the Black Dragon High School examinees before his spiritual power is exhausted."

"The final result was nothing more than defeat due to exhaustion."

Upon hearing this, the student from Qiansuan High School suddenly realized the meaning and quickly applied it to other situations:
“You’re right, class monitor. Besides, Su Yuan is just too arrogant.”

"They could have used hypnosis on the students from Black Dragon High School to help them, but instead they chose to eliminate them. It was utterly foolish."

Wang Baiji smiled without saying a word, and the students of Qiansuan High School around him were relieved.

But as they laughed, they realized something was wrong.

Because Su Yuan had already killed a full fifteen Black Dragon High School examinees, yet showed no signs of exhaustion.

On the contrary... they became even stronger in battle?!

"Something's not right."

Wang Baiji felt a sense of unease creeping into his heart.

Su Yuan's spiritual power was strangely abundant.

In fact, Su Yuan's spiritual power came from very simple sources: the dark-skinned physical education students he had killed.

Each time he attacked a dark-skinned physical education student, he would quietly insert the tentacles of his Senluo Spirit Root into the student's dantian to draw out a wave of spiritual energy to replenish his losses.

The dark-skinned athletes who were instantly eliminated were naturally unaware of anything.

The disguise effect of the Senluo Spirit Root was truly outstanding; it's estimated that no one in the entire arena could detect that Su Yuan was stealing spiritual power.

Perhaps Taibai Yuxi, a girl with an exceptional ability to perceive the demonic path, would discover it, but would she really tell anyone?

"Wang, please get going."

After forcefully carving a path through the encirclement of the dark-skinned physical education students, Su Yuan finally arrived in front of the bewildered Wang Baiji.

The Demonic Art of Fingering Body imprisoned him, while the powerful spiritual sword energy formed by the fusion of multiple sword energies blasted the latter apart!
Without their commanders, Qian Suan High School and Hei Long High School fell apart once more, surrounded and eliminated by the increasingly powerful Tai Hua High School team.

At this point, Su Yuan had already destroyed four of the eight high schools.

That leaves only the strongest Yaoxing High School, Baihewang Girls' High School which ranks fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh on the popularity list, and Yangxi High School, which ranks last among the eight schools in terms of overall strength.

At this point, the three high schools had joined forces.

To be more precise, it was Li Zhengxing who took in the students from Baihewang Girls' High School and Yangxi High School.

At this point, only two forces remained on the field.

On one side is the Taihua Demon Sect, which has grown stronger through evil hypnotic sword energy; on the other side is the Righteous Alliance, led by Taihua's strongest high school student.
