Chapter 106 Abyss Combat Ends, S-Rank Rating!
The half-demon launched a surprise attack in less than ten seconds.

Although Jiang He won, it was only a Pyrrhic victory.

Not only did two of his teammates get off the field in danger, but he himself was also seriously injured.

Especially the right arm, because it was subjected to an impact at 128 times the speed, caused it to suffer a pulverized fracture while severing half of the demon's body, and it was almost rotten into a pile of flesh.

Such a severe injury is practically the same as losing an arm.

Even with healing spells, recovery is still quite slow.

However, my mental energy is still quite high, since I haven't used the spell too many times.

"This demon should be at least a B-level monster, right?"

Jiang He sensed through intuition that the danger had dissipated.

He put the remains of the half-demon into his pack and talked to Lao Jiang.

“No.” Old Jiang floated down and stood on the rock, saying, “Level B superhumans possess the ability to create their own professions, allowing their talents to be sublimated and their self-systems to be built…”

"It's a true qualitative leap in energy levels."

"B-level alien beasts and B-level demons that can be compared to B-level superhumans also have corresponding strength."

"This demon is at most a strong C-rank, far from being a B-rank."

Jiang He couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

The monster that nearly wiped out the entire team and cost him dearly in injury was actually only a C-rank demon.

The higher the energy level in the extraordinary system, the more strictly hierarchical it becomes...

He's using so many cheats, and even surpassing higher-level players is so difficult for him, let alone others.

As for the heavy casualties caused by being ambushed by the half-demon, he didn't feel frustrated at all.

Jiang He and his two companions originally came here for practical testing and to challenge their limits.

As they delve deeper, the demons grow stronger, and it's perfectly normal to encounter enemies they can't defeat.

More than setbacks, Jiang He focuses on self-reflection.

This half-demon wasn't as strong as he'd imagined; despite its superhuman strength and speed, it was still within his control.

The reason for such heavy casualties was that he had too much faith in the laws of the "demon territory," which caused him to become complacent when he was at the edge of the building and fail to anticipate the situation in time.

If he uses [Time Revelation] in advance to foresee future events.

That outcome would absolutely not occur.

"Reality is not a game; there are no 'absolute' rules."

"We cannot rely entirely on experience; we must remain vigilant..."

Old Jiang stood on the rock, watching Jiang He take medicine to heal his injuries while reflecting on his actions.

He smiled with satisfaction.

No one can have a smooth journey on the path of spiritual practice; encountering setbacks is perfectly normal.

As long as you don't dwell on regrets, learn to reflect on your mistakes, and strive to do better... then this is not "failure," but "growth."

As expected of me.

……

Two teammates unexpectedly left the team, but Jiang He did not leave the abyss. Instead, he continued his solo exploration.

He spent a lot of time using the medicines he had stockpiled in advance, combined with the effects of the incantation, to restore himself to his peak condition.

Afterwards, they circled the dark playground and found the passage at the edge.

This time, he first divided the danger level into five levels, and then used the Time Revelation to make a query.

Get the answer.

"High risk"

This is the same level of danger as a half-demon.

Jiang He walked along the passage and came to a new playground.

Sure enough, a new half-demon was spotted.

However, unlike the "lower body" mentioned earlier, it is the human body part from the neck to the chest, with four arms, eyes as nipples, and a mouth as a navel. It is a complete monster.

It floats in mid-air, its four hands controlling the earth, water, fire, and wind respectively.

Even the ground becomes its weapon, constantly launching terrifying area attacks.

This was another extreme compared to the leg demon. Jiang He exerted all his strength, almost draining his mental energy, to defeat this four-armed demon.

He put the materials of the four-armed demon into his spatial backpack, took some medicine to rest, and restored his mental energy to its peak before arriving at the next passage and using Time Revelation.

"Extremely high risk"

The danger level of the next area is a whole level higher than that of the Leg Demon and the Four-Armed Demon!
Jiang He gasped and decisively began drawing cards to stack buffs.

There's no way he'd be cowardly. He entered the abyss to launch a fierce attack. At worst, he could just teleport back to school to heal. He wouldn't die anyway!
In preparation for the upcoming battle, he spent a full half minute stacking buffs and even self-harmed to max out the critical injury enhancement of his Fiery Body.

In other words, the spell's effect doesn't last long. Otherwise, if Jiang Hedie went in again after an hour, he would be able to easily defeat everyone.

At this moment, Jiang He, with peak buffs, stepped into the passage.

Come, let me see what kind of opponent we have!
As he walked through the passage and stepped onto the new playground.

The flames illuminated the darkness, and he saw an enormous, one-eyed head floating above the playground.

Below the head, two legged demons were running around the track, seemingly competing in speed, while two four-armed demons floated together, playing rock-paper-scissors with their eight arms.

At this moment, I sensed Jiang He's presence.

All the demons stopped what they were doing and turned around.

Jiang He: "...Hi."

……

The stone monument in the square of Zhongzhou No.1 High School.

With a flash of white light, Jiang He appeared from beside the stone tablet.

The flames on his body went out, revealing his twisted, muddy hands and festering skin. He grimaced and looked extremely wretched.

When people saw him like this, there was no mockery, no sympathy, only a sense of acceptance.

When all the students returned, they were all seriously injured, and some even had lost their hands and feet or suffered other limb mutilations.

Fortunately, these extraordinary individuals can even control space and time, so regenerating severed limbs is nothing to them.

The healer who had been standing next to the anchoring stone made his move, and golden light descended from the sky, showering Jiang He with light.

In an instant, his injuries healed and his strength was restored.

Even the pain was dispelled, and Jiang He sat up from the ground, letting out a sigh of relief.

Indeed, when it comes to treatment, it's best to leave it to the professionals.

He recalled the battle just now and couldn't help but smile.

Although in the last area, the demons were terrifying in both strength and number.

But he was fearless and managed to kill a leg demon before being "killed," and put it into his spatial backpack.

Taking on five opponents and still managing to kill one of them, not a bad deal!

"Jiang He, you're finally out!"

It had been almost two hours since Chi Zhilei and Xiao Xue returned to school.

With so much time, Jiang He must have already defeated that demon and traveled far ahead.

At this moment, the two of them came to Jiang He's side and urged him with smiles, "Quickly take a look at your combat summary and settlement reward!"

Jiang He took a jacket out of his backpack, put it on, and asked curiously, "You've already come up with a summary? How do you interpret it?"

“The instructors have been observing everyone’s performance in real combat and have already reached a conclusion,” Chi Zhilei explained. “Just check your phone messages.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang He took out his phone from his spatial backpack, and as soon as the signal was restored, he received a new message.

He opened the message, and a line of text caught his eye.
