I choose a C ranked hero in another world, I was mocked online-Chapter 333: Slay Gods if They Stand in the Way!
Chapter 333 - 333: Slay Gods if They Stand in the Way!
Chapter 333: Slay Gods if They Stand in the Way!
The match began.
The two participants on stage started fighting.
But Chen Ye lost interest after just a glance.
To him, it was nothing more than a couple of amateurs pecking at each other—utterly boring.
Very quickly,
The first match ended.
The winner was the girl.
The little fat boy had overfed his summoned beast. Though it had grown stronger, it was so sluggish it was hard to watch. His opponent's beast, however, was an agility-type and easily claimed victory.
For students who hadn't yet left the academy, battles were still heavily reliant on their summoned beasts.
They themselves didn't possess much combat power.
The second match—
Also a battle of amateurs...
It wasn't until the third match that things got a little interesting.
The two summoned beasts were both quite unusual. One had a dragon's head and a horse's body, resembling a qilin, and it could spew out large volumes of water and even launch "Water Arrows" to attack.
Its appearance immediately caused a stir in the crowd.
Listening to the chatter, Chen Ye learned that this kind of beast contained dragon blood in its body and was known as a sub-dragon species.
The other summoned beast couldn't even be named. It looked like a lump of slime. Chen Ye even wondered if it counted as a living creature at all.
Surprisingly, despite its appearance, that slime creature turned out to be incredibly tough to deal with.
The water-based attacks from the qilin-like beast had no effect on it at all.
If it weren't for the qilin beast's raw strength, it might've lost the match...
The competition continued.
Several impressive summoned beasts appeared next, but most were mediocre in strength. Not ordinary animals, but not all that powerful either.
Over an hour passed...
"Next up, from Class Yin, Song Yuting versus Wang Liang from Class Xu."
Chen Ye opened his eyes slightly at the announcement.
Song Yuting, however, was visibly nervous.
Every monthly assessment in the past had been a bad memory for her, to the point it left a psychological scar.
Even though she now knew her giant panda was strong, she still couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Soon, both contestants walked onto the stage.
When the students saw Song Yuting and her giant panda appear, many of them perked up and started whispering among themselves.
"Didn't they say this panda awakened Titan blood? Why does it look so... normal?"
"It's weird, honestly. Looks just like the pandas you see at the zoo."
"This thing? Titan bloodline? Come on, every beast with Titan blood is ridiculously buff. Could the academy teachers have made a mistake?"
"We'll know soon enough. Her opponent, Wang Liang, isn't weak."
The reason for all the buzz
Was, of course, because over the past half month, Song Yuting had gone from Rank D straight to Rank B. She was currently one of the most talked-about students in the academy.
Amid the discussion,
Wang Liang stepped onto the stage.
His summoned beast was a burly black bear.
Coincidentally—or not—it was the same black bear that had injured the giant panda and knocked it off the stage in a previous match.
Reportedly, it had an extraordinary bloodline too, and was called the Rampaging Black Bear.
In terms of sheer size, the three-meter-tall black bear could crush Chen Ye with ease. Its aura was also immensely oppressive.
Purely from appearance, it crushed Chen Ye in every way.
"Song Yuting, what a coincidence! We meet again," Wang Liang said with an arrogant smile.
He glanced disdainfully at the panda beside her and sneered, "I heard your summoned beast awakened Titan blood? Doesn't look like it. Don't tell me it's fake?"
He said it loudly on purpose, clearly holding a grudge against Song Yuting.
Immediately, murmurs of doubt spread through the crowd.
Song Yuting's expression turned cold. "We'll see soon enough."
Wang Liang shook his head and said with a laugh, "Last time, my Black Cannon was feeling generous and didn't bother killing your useless panda. This time, that might not be the case. So, my advice? You'd best surrender now."
Song Yuting was furious but said nothing.
Ding!
A bell rang.
The match had officially started!
Wang Liang immediately commanded, "Black Cannon, kill... that panda!"
He had originally wanted to say "kill them,"
But thinking of Song Yuting's father, he hesitated and quickly changed his wording.
The Rampaging Black Bear roared and charged at Chen Ye.
Song Yuting watched nervously.
With the bear's terrifying aura, rushing in would be suicide. All she could do was stand back and hope her panda performed well.
As the black bear rushed forward, Chen Ye remained expressionless, his small eyes flashing with irritation.
He truly had no interest in fighting these amateurs.
Then—
Chen Ye casually glanced at Wang Liang behind the black bear and suddenly made his move.
He raised his right palm and pushed forward with a plain motion.
Although his palm wasn't fast, the black bear didn't dodge—or more accurately, didn't even think about dodging. It figured the strike wouldn't even tickle.
But—
As the palm struck its chest, it was too late for regrets.
Boom!
It was like the air exploded.
A shockwave burst from Chen Ye's palm, sending ripples through the surrounding void.
The black bear was instantly blasted backward at an incredible speed—
Like a cannonball, it smashed into its own master, Wang Liang!
In that instant, Wang Liang barely had time to show an expression of utter terror and disbelief before he was completely engulfed by his own summoned beast.
Crash!
The pair crashed through the protective railings at the edge of the stage and flew out of bounds.
Startled, the two instructors assigned to maintain the arena quickly leapt into action and barely managed to catch them.
They were caught—
But both Wang Liang and the black bear lay limp and motionless.
Looking closer, blood was flowing from all seven orifices of their faces—clearly dead.
The two instructors stared in shock and looked up at the giant panda on stage.
The academy's medical team rushed forward to check on Wang Liang and his beast.
One glance was enough for the head physician to shake his head and wave his hand: no saving them...
...
The entire arena fell silent.
No one had expected such a result.
That seemingly ordinary giant panda had used just one palm strike to kill both Wang Liang and his summoned beast—two birds with one stone.
What shocked everyone even more was that the Rampaging Black Bear wasn't just powerful—it was also famous in the academy for its insane defense!
"What just happened? How is this possible?"
"One hit? It killed the Rampaging Black Bear in one hit? How?!"
"Damn! What the hell is that panda? That's terrifying!"
"Titan bloodline? Even if Titan himself showed up, it wouldn't be this exaggerated!"
While everyone was stunned,
Chen Ye remained calm. Without waiting for the referee's verdict, he simply turned and walked off the stage.
Only then did the referee announce Song Yuting's victory.
...
The next matches began.
Chen Ye advanced with unstoppable momentum, slaying any opponent that stood in his way!
No matter who he faced, they couldn't withstand even a single slap from him.
Even in the final match, where his opponent's summoned beast was a blue dragon, Chen Ye grabbed its tail and threw it straight off the stage.
The only reason he didn't kill it with a slap was because Song Yuting had told him that the blue dragon's owner came from a family allied with the Song family—so Chen Ye held back...
It wasn't that Chen Ye was too powerful.
In truth, his current strength attribute was only a bit over 1,300.
But this assessment was for rookie students, and their summoned beasts hadn't yet reached their mature forms—they were all still in early stages.
Letting Chen Ye fight these summoned beasts was like bullying kindergarteners.
So, Chen Ye felt no sense of accomplishment from winning.
On the other hand, Song Yuting was thrilled.
The headmaster of the Holy Hall Academy personally awarded her the prize and even gave her a few words of encouragement.
After this match,
Song Yuting and her summoned beast became famous from a single battle!
News of it even spread outside the academy, catching the attention of some influential figures.
...
That night,
Song Yuting returned home and saw her father looking worried and distressed.
"Daughter, I heard you stole the spotlight at the academy today and took first place in the assessment?"
"That's right!" Song Yuting beamed with joy and said, "Dad, Big Cat is so strong now—does this mean I don't have to leave the capital anymore?"
Song Zhichang smiled bitterly and nodded. "You really don't have to leave. In fact, even if you wanted to, it wouldn't be so easy anymore."
"Dad? Why?" Song Yuting finally noticed the look on his face. "You don't seem happy?"
Song Zhichang sighed. "I just didn't expect your Big Cat to be capable of this so soon after awakening."
Song Yuting said, "My teacher said it might be a case of long-time accumulation erupting all at once."
"Long-time accumulation, huh?"
Song Zhichang shook his head. "No matter what the reason, it means your Big Cat has terrifying potential! His performance today at the academy even reached the ears of the king... Yuting, from now on, stay quietly at the academy. Don't come back unless necessary. And above all—don't wander around."
"Huh?"
Just as Song Yuting was about to ask why, she seemed to realize something. "You mean someone might see Big Cat as too powerful—and see me as a threat—and want to eliminate me early?"
Song Zhichang looked at his daughter in surprise.
Although it was an obvious concern, with her old level of awareness, she might not have thought of that.
"Seems you've grown a lot lately," he said with relief. "That's right! Big Cat's performance has already triggered those people's sensitive nerves. With their methods, they'll try everything they can to target you and suppress your and Big Cat's growth."
"At this point, the safest place is the academy. With your headmaster around, no one will dare to act recklessly inside the Holy Hall."
Hearing this, Song Yuting furrowed her brows.
She didn't complain like she used to. She simply said, "I understand, Dad."
Her best friend Li Xin had taught her a harsh lesson and made her realize just how treacherous human nature could be.
"Good."
Song Zhichang looked at his daughter with some heartache. "Stay home and rest tonight. I'll take you back to the academy tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
Song Yuting agreed readily.
After dinner with her father, she returned to her room.
"Big Cat, tell me... why do humans like to fight each other so much?"
Lying on her bed, Song Yuting stared at the ceiling and murmured, "Isn't peace a good thing? Why must everything be life or death?"
In response to her words—
Chen Ye replied: Go to the Void Realm tonight!
Song Yuting understood what he meant—if she wanted to protect herself, she had to grow stronger.
"Big Cat, I'm so lucky to have you!"
She said this as she rolled over beside Chen Ye, burying herself in his arms, unwilling to come back out...
At midnight,
Song Yuting and Chen Ye appeared in the second layer of the Void Realm.
They had already gone through the first layer three times and used up their entries.
From those three runs, they'd earned a total of 233 potential points!
That result was on par with the top talents.
She'd already learned from her teacher about what awaited in the second layer of the Void Realm.
The monsters there were called "Goblins"!
These creatures were generally small and weak, but they lived in groups and wielded weapons. Encountering them could be just as dangerous as running into a Cyclops.
Among them were also stronger types, including magic-wielding "Goblin Priests"!
If you ran into a Goblin Priest, it was extremely dangerous.
They could hide among ordinary goblins and launch sneak attacks with magic when you least expected it—almost impossible to defend against!
So—
As soon as they entered the second layer of the Void Realm, Song Yuting's face turned serious, and her attention became razor-sharp.
Fortunately, she had Big Cat.
That night, they encountered many goblins—and all of them were slaughtered by Chen Ye's claws.
Song Yuting's only job was to lie back and win.
As for the legendary Goblin Priest—they didn't encounter one that night.
...
The next morning,
At 8:00 a.m.,
Song Yuting and Chen Ye safely returned.
Back in her familiar room, Song Yuting relaxed, a happy expression appearing on her face.
Although there had been danger, the impact on her was still significant.
Because Chen Ye had taken her to a goblin nest.
Inside that goblin den, she saw the corpses of many human girls, violated beyond recognition by the goblins.
Some even had newborn goblins crawling out of their bodies...
Even for Chen Ye, it was an unbearable sight.
All he could do was take revenge for those girls.
At least, the gains this time made Song Yuting very satisfied.
They had earned 87 potential points!
In fact—
Chen Ye had killed at least three to four hundred goblins in that one den.
But—
It took five adult goblins to generate one point of potential.
"Yuting! Yuting!"
Her father's voice rang out from outside her door.
"Coming!"
Song Yuting quickly went to open the door.
Seeing how exhausted she looked, Song Zhichang asked curiously, "Why do you look so tired? Didn't sleep last night?"
"Yeah," Song Yuting replied truthfully. "Big Cat and I went to the Void Realm for training."
Hearing that—
Song Zhichang's face changed in shock.
...
Dungeon progress increased...
