SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: The Top Scorer from Lijiang, A Sensation Across the Province!

TL: YYang

Suhang Province, one of the largest provinces in Zhongxia Country, had as many as 53 subordinate base cities.

Among them were the provincial capital city, Ning’an City, 23 prefecture-level cities, 4 autonomous prefectures, and 25 county-level cities.

Among these many base cities, Ning’an City, the provincial capital, was recognized as the most prosperous city with the most geniuses.

In contrast, the 25 county-level cities located closer to the north were acknowledged as barren and lacking in talent.

This was indeed the case.

For over twenty consecutive years, the top scorer of Suhang Province had been born in Ning’an City.

Even if they were not born in Ning’an City, they were born in the surrounding prefecture-level cities.

Therefore, when this year’s provincial top scorer was revealed to be from the impoverished northern city of Lijiang, the entire southern part of Suhang Province erupted in excitement!

“A dark horse!! The provincial top scorer comes from Lijiang City!!”

“Shocking!! The provincial top scorer was only level 10 when entering the dungeon!”

“The job transfer ceremony triggered a miracle; it turns out the provincial top scorer had long been a portent!”

“Shocking!! The provincial top scorer’s profession is actually this!”

“……”

One article after another, sparking curiosity, quickly flooded the internet.

In previous years, the top scorer’s identity had always been a hot topic.

Now, the top scorer appeared from a little-known city in northern Suhang.

What did this mean?

It meant a sensational highlight!!

Once the articles were published, they drew numerous clicks and comments.

Especially the netizens from Suhang Province, who continuously left their comments beneath these articles.

“What the hell? The provincial top scorer is actually a Saint Knight? Isn’t the Saint Knight a heavy armor support class?”

“I haven’t read much, don’t lie to me. Saint Knights clear dungeons slowly on their own.”

“Level 10 can solo clear a Nightmare-level dungeon? Are you kidding me?”

“……”

In the affluent southern part of Suhang Province, hidden job transfers were not considered a rare occurrence.

In fact, many people had encountered Saint Knights or claimed to be one themselves.

Unlike pure support Priests who only provided buffs, Saint Knights had a certain level of combat capability.

However, this combat capability was comparable to that of a typical tank.

They could withstand damage decently, but trying to use that combat power to solo a Nightmare-level dungeon was akin to seeking death!!

Thus, when the news broke, these people were bewildered.

How was Zhou Yi’s job transfer to a Saint Knight different from their impressions of a Saint Knight?

Some radical individuals even shouted online that Zhou Yi was not a transferred Saint Knight; the media had made a mistake!

Amidst all the doubts and questions, videos of Zhou Yi clearing the dungeon also circulated.

In response, some malicious trolls who had been preparing to launch a scathing attack were suddenly left dumbfounded.

This provincial top scorer, Zhou Yi, was indeed a Saint Knight!!

“What the hell, such fierce power! He actually succeeded in the Tiger Assault grab on the Minotaur??”

“Are you telling me this is the Holy Light Cross of a Saint Knight? Why does it feel even more powerful than a high-level fire spell from a Mage?”

“Weapon Blessing, God’s Blessing, Gift of Courage… Can someone help me count how many buff skills this provincial top scorer has released?”

“……”

Watching the video, Zhou Yi was enveloped in various holy lights, wielding the Holy Light Cross.

A tall figure, wielding a glowing giant battle axe, chased after the BOSS, delivering powerful blows.

Countless people were left in shock.

Saint Knight…

Is this how it’s played?

Some marveled at Zhou Yi’s strength and skills, while others gradually veered off-topic, discussing Zhou Yi’s looks:

“Wow! This provincial top scorer is quite handsome.”

“I want to attend the same university as him!!”

“Hehe, every provincial top scorer has been admitted to one of the three top universities. Are you sure?”

“Ahem, sorry to interrupt… but he’s still really handsome!!”

“……”

Many girls were swooning in the comments below the video, even expressing a desire to attend the same university as Zhou Yi.

However, upon learning that Zhou Yi would be going to one of the three top universities in the future, they could only exclaim that they were interrupting…

…..

In Ning’an Base City, the capital of Suhang Province, which was extremely affluent.

In the main urban area, there was a vast residential complex.

The entire complex was enveloped by a large protective magic formation, capable of withstanding a level 3 beast tide attack.

Inside the complex, there were small bridges and flowing water, exquisite artificial mountains and waterfalls, along with abundant greenery.

Moreover, the most eye-catching features were the luxurious villas.

Between these villas, intelligent robots moved back and forth, providing the most comprehensive services for their owners.

Nanhui Returning Line Community.

One of the most luxurious residential complexes in Ning’an City.

This place could not simply be bought with money or power!

At this moment, in a beautifully decorated villa’s living room in the Nanhui Returning Line Community.

A holographic projection was playing a video of Zhou Yi clearing a Nightmare-level dungeon.

After a while, the video finished, and the holographic projection disappeared.

Revealing a young boy dressed in loose training clothes with fiery red hair lounging on the sofa.

“Clearing time, 9 minutes and 24 seconds, 20 seconds faster than me.”

“This Zhou Yi is quite interesting.”

A playful smile appeared on the handsome face of the boy.

“However, daring to steal my glory, next time we meet, I’ll just crush him…”

The boy stood up and walked further inside.

Around him, bright sparks scattered.

One of the sparks fell onto the pristine white floor.

Like ice meeting magma, a bowl-sized pit formed instantly…
