SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 155

Chapter 155: The Saint Knight Who Wielded a Battle Axe? It Turned Out to be Him!

TL: Rui88

“Brother Zhou Yi had cleared it!”

“13 minutes 56 seconds! Beautiful!”

Jiang Churan and Zhong Dan on the sofa exchanged glances, and each saw the excitement in the other’s eyes.

It was known that Liu Quan, who was ranked second, had taken no less than 15 minutes and 41 seconds, and had only achieved an 86% completion rate.

And Zhou Yi had fully cleared the dungeon in just 13 minutes and 56 seconds!

This was sufficient to demonstrate that the opponent had cleared the dungeon with great ease.

“Zhou Yi’s strength was too strong.”

Zhong Dan felt a wave of suffocation.

Although she was also a special admissions student, she felt that in her lifetime, she no longer looked forward to surpassing Zhou Yi.

Even keeping pace with the other seemed like an extravagant hope..-….

“Let’s go, let’s go find him.”

Jiang Churan got up first and walked toward the Return Teleportation Room-.

Zhong Dan, having seen this, also hastily put away her thoughts and followed.

…

…

The two women got up and left, while the entire hall was stirred into a tremendous shock.

“Fuck?! Someone had cleared the Abyss-level difficulty!”

“Zhou Yi? How come I hadn’t heard that name? Could he have been a third-year senior?”

“Hiss, 13 minutes 56 seconds! Too fast!”

“…”

At the entire Suhang University, the sophomore year had the most students at levels 17 to 21.

Next were the third-year students, and lastly were the fourth-year students!

And now, in the entire first-floor lobby, the most numerous were the sophomore students!

They almost all knew the strong ones in their own year.

Thus, at the moment when a strange name was refreshed on the big screen ranking, the students in the entire first-floor lobby instantly were in an uproar!!

They all began to speculate on Zhou Yi’s background.

Some speculated that he had been the hidden dark horse among the sophomores, while others speculated that he had been a powerhouse in the junior year.

And yet others believed that he had been the top freshman of this cohort…

“Impossible! I had also gone to watch the Freshman Competition!”

“Zhou Yi’s strength was indeed strong, but it had not reached the level required to kill that 23-level Epic-grade Goblin King!”

Once this conjecture was proposed, someone immediately refuted it.

“Indeed, in the Abyss-level Bear Monster dungeon, although the final BOSS had also been Epic-grade, it had only been 19-level.”

“Compared with the 23-level Epic-grade Goblin King, it had been as if one were in the heavens and the other in the underworld!”

“No matter how extraordinary Zhou Yi had been, it had not been possible for him to have increased his strength that much in the mere four or five days after the Freshman Competition had ended!”

This explanation instantly garnered the assent of many students present.

They admitted that the freshmen of this cohort had indeed been much stronger than when they had enrolled before.

But to claim that in just a few days they had achieved such a significant improvement, they were rather skeptical.

“The top freshman Saint Knight Zhou Yi—was he not tall, and had he been using a Gold-grade Army Breaker Battle Axe?”

Within the crowd, a tall, slender man asked hesitantly.

This person was none other than the male student who had previously been by Shi Mingxuan’s side.

“That’s right, it had been him. Throughout Suhang University, there had probably been only one Saint Knight who had carried a battle axe.”

The few students around who had watched the Freshman Competition all nodded.

Although Saint Knight was a hidden profession, throughout Suhang University there were roughly a dozen.

However, most Saint Knights carried totems, crosses, or giant shields.

Only Zhou Yi had, in a very unorthodox manner, used a long-handled battle axe.

“Ah, this…”

The tall, slender man wore a strange expression:

“More than ten minutes ago, I had indeed seen a 19-level Saint Knight with a battle axe on his back choose to enter the Abyss difficulty alone.”

As soon as his words ended, the surroundings instantly fell into an eerie silence.

After a moment, someone sighed:

“It had seemed that the Zhou Yi who had cleared the dungeon had indeed been that top freshman.”

Although one was very reluctant to believe it, judging by the current situation, the Zhou Yi who had been the first to clear the Abyss difficulty was 99% likely to be that top freshman who had shone brilliantly in the Freshman Competition…

“This was just too outrageous; it had only been a few days, and Zhou Yi had progressed so much already?”

Some were utterly puzzled, while others could not help but exclaim:

“We had originally thought that the strength of this cohort of freshmen would take some time to surpass us, but we had not expected them to catch up so quickly…”

At the Freshman Competition, when they had seen Wu Mang, the dean of the War College, open the Abyss mode for this cohort of freshmen, those veteran students realized.

This cohort of freshmen probably possessed far better innate talent than theirs!

Their strength was also expected to increase more rapidly! In the future, they would have been able to surpass them!

But they had not expected that this day would have come so soon.

“Hehe, the freshmen thought they could surpass us? Not so fast yet!”

“Just wait, Brother Xuan had entered the dungeon after Zhou Yi, so he had been a bit slower.”

“When Brother Xuan’s results came out, Zhou Yi’s ranking would definitely be pushed down!”

The tall, slender man who had spoken earlier immediately retorted.

At that moment, a new name slowly appeared on the big screen ranking:

‘Second, Shi Mingxuan, Abyss difficulty, time taken 14 minutes 42 seconds, final completion progress 100%.’

“Hmm?”

Upon seeing this ranking and name, the tall, slender man was momentarily stunned, and then immediately recovered, his face turning red.

His words had only just been spoken, and he had not expected to be hit in the face so soon.

While feeling embarrassed, he also felt somewhat incredulous.

After all, that was Shi Mingxuan!

The sophomore sequence ranking was in the top ten!

He had been surpassed like that by a freshman who had one year less of cultivation experience.
