Immortal Martial Saint, something's wrong with my entry.

"Hey, Qiang-ge, where's Pingyu?"

"That's because he's not qualified."

Qiang said nonchalantly.

"Those who work in information technology will definitely consider all aspects because it involves their own money."

"There's only one possibility: this kid has been hiding his true strength all along."

"Just like you."

Li Youan was somewhat puzzled.

"Like me?"

"Mmm."

Qiang nodded.

"With the monster materials you have, even these top contenders wouldn't find it easy to obtain them, let alone have so many."

Even if you're not the strongest among them, you're still among the top.

"Brother Qiang, I've been at the front-line base for so many years, I have that kind of insight."

After scanning Li Youan from head to toe once again, Qiang Ge sighed with emotion.

"I really don't know how you cultivated yourself. Is this what genius is all about?"

Li Youan accepted Qiang Ge's praise naturally.

Looking at Li Youan's composed expression, Bai Ze thought to himself that this person was really shameless.

With a flick of its claws, a gust of wind blew towards Li Youan.

"Ouch."

Li Youan felt a gust of wind; if he hadn't been sitting cross-legged, he would have been blown over.

"Brother Bai, praising me as a genius is the same as praising you. You are the real genius."

Although we had already determined yesterday from the behavior of Xiong Da and Xiong Er that this little white beast was unusual.

But I didn't expect that I had guessed too low.

"Wait, which of these two is the master, and which is the servant?"

Brother Qiang couldn't help but wonder.

At this moment, Xiong Da and Xiong Er also woke up because of the noise outside. The two bears rubbed their eyes and wandered over to Qiang Ge's side.

"No, Qiang-ge, what's with that look? I get the feeling you're thinking something really impolite."

Li Youan sensed something was off about the way Qiang Ge looked at her.

"ah."

"I was wondering if you've been possessed by a demonic beast."

Qiang laughed it off, but his body language betrayed him as he slowly approached the edge of the roof, ready to jump down at any moment if anything happened.

Seeing this, Xiong Da and Xiong Er also pretended to be dazed and approached the roof.

Upon hearing Qiang Ge's words, Bai Ze glanced sideways at Li Youan, scanning him from top to bottom and then from bottom to top several times.

"whispering sound."

Seeing Bai Ze's disdain and mockery, Li Youan immediately lost her temper.

"What's with that expression? What does it mean?"

"With my perfect body and outstanding talent, I'm more than a match for you."

Upon hearing Li Youan's narcissistic words, Bai Ze jumped directly onto Li Youan's head.

"I'm a divine beast! Do you even know what a divine beast is?!"

"I wouldn't even want your lousy body if you offered it to me."

Li Youan and Bai Ze communicated through their spiritual energy, but Qiang Ge couldn't hear anything. He just watched as the two of them glanced at each other a few times before they started fighting.

No, it's Bai Ze who's attacking, and Li Youan tries to catch him but can't.

Seeing the commotion between the man and the beast, Qiang Ge relaxed.

If it really is a monster possessing another's body, then it's most likely a comical creature.

"Brother Qiang, don't worry, just like your relationship with Xiong Da and Xiong Er."

Even without that damned memory, Li Youan could tell that the relationship between Qiang Ge and Xiong Da and Xiong Er was unusual.

"Xiaobai and I are best friends who would risk our lives for each other; there is no master-servant relationship between us."

After a while of commotion, Bai Ze and Li Youan quieted down, and Li Youan hugged Bai Ze and explained to Brother Qiang.

Upon hearing Li Youan's words, a hint of tenderness appeared in Bai Ze's eyes, but he quickly turned away with an arrogant expression.

"Brother Qiang, we don't have any information about Dongfang either. She's definitely better than these guys."

Li Youan was even more puzzled by the absence of Dongfang Jinghong from the list.

"If I hadn't had the good fortune to be with you today, very few people would even know she existed."

"The young master of the Dongfang family actually chose the Northern Frontier War Academy, and even came to the front-line base."

"The mindset of this kind of empire, or even the top families of Qingyuan Continent, is different from that of the nouveau riche in small places."

Li Youan could hear the admiration in Qiang Ge's voice.

"However, Pingyu called out Dongfang Jinghong's name as soon as he saw her today."

Upon hearing Li Youan's words, Qiang Ge spoke up.

"The Ping family is a family that came from the capital. For some reason, they left the capital and came to our Northern Frontier Province."

Before Li Youan could ask any more questions, Qiang Ge continued.

"You need to understand that the casualty rate at frontline bases is very high."

"For a clan of the Taira's caliber, there is no better option."

"They come here to gain experience, but most of them work in logistics units and never go to the actual outposts."

"A top-tier family like the Dongfang family doesn't need to gild their reputation in such a dangerous place."

"Their sweat is more precious than gold."

Seeing Li Youan's knowing expression, Qiang Ge continued.

"Therefore, apart from a very few people who knew about her arrival, outsiders had no way of knowing about it."

"Those who know this information disdain participating in gambling, which is like a chicken bone to them, so naturally no information will be leaked."

That evening, Qiang told Li Youan many things he knew.

This gave Li Youan a greater sense of belonging to this world that was both strange and familiar.

-----------------

Moonrise and sunset.

The silvery light shone on the ground.

Li Youan lay in bed, looking out the window at the twinkling stars in the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the panel appeared before my eyes.

Name: Li Youan

[Original Source: 100.34%]

[Entry: Military Training Model Soldier, One Shot Kills, Steel Bladder]

[Cultivation Level: Body Tempering Realm, Eighth Level+]

[Technique: Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission, Spirit Serpent Transformation - Yellow Rank, Intermediate+]

[Magic Item: None]

"Sigh, which one should I upgrade?"

"I wonder how much energy is consumed when upgrading a cultivation technique from intermediate to advanced?"

Li Youan did not rush to upgrade his cultivation technique because he was worried that the energy consumed would increase rapidly as the technique level increased.

If the previous situation were to repeat itself, one's own energy would be insufficient to sustain a prolonged battle.

"Forget it, I'll see how things go in the arena tomorrow and see if I can level up."

Li Youan stopped thinking about it and chose to go to sleep to maintain a good state and recharge for the next day's arena match.

-----------------

The next day, Li Youan and Qiang Ge arrived at the arena early.

Looking at the crowded people in front of him, Li Youan was somewhat surprised.

"Are there really this many people here?"

Qiang looked at the new students in the crowd, his eyes filled with a sense of melancholy and sadness.

With a soft sigh, everything ultimately turned into reconciliation and relief.

"Of course, although the intensity of the battle was not high, most of the people who came to watch were more reminiscing about their former selves."

"And, take a look at the reserve forces of the various families."

Li Youan was somewhat puzzled.

"Reserve forces?"

After a little thought, Li Youan understood.

"You mean, by observing the new members of each family, you can determine the internal situation of those families?"

The two walked forward with the flow of people, and Qiang Ge nodded when he heard Li Youan's words.

Even the most prosperous family cannot withstand the decline of its descendants.

"If no new generation of strong individuals emerges, the decline of this family is foreseeable."

Li Youan didn't say anything more, but instead pondered his next move.

If I were in the ring, I would eliminate Pingyu and the other two without hesitation.

Those affected will not only be these three people, but also their families.

This further provoked a vicious revenge from their families.

However, it's already a life-or-death struggle, and there's no room for retreat.

"You just need to initiate the team fight, and the system will automatically match him with opponents of similar skill."

Thinking of this classic line from his past life, Li Youan felt a little more at ease.

Soon, Li Youan parted ways with Qiang Ge.

Qiang Ge headed towards the stands, while Li Youan went towards the ring.

Walking down to the bottom of the arena, most of the freshmen gathered in twos and threes.

It's relatively rare to find someone like Li Youan who lives alone.

But one of them happened to be someone Li Youan knew.

"Miss Dongfang, why are you all alone?"

"Isn't it normal for me to be alone? I'm not from the Northern Xinjiang Province either, so naturally I don't have any friends here."

Not far away, Pingyu and the other two watched Dongfang Jinghong and Li Youan talking, their expressions unreadable.

"Don't worry, how could the Dongfang family possibly stand up for such a peasant?"

"The light of a firefly can not shine as brightly as the moon."

"Distinguished guests, friends, let's welcome this year's new students!"

The audience in the stands cheered enthusiastically.

Oh, oh, oh.

Roar! Roar! Roar!
