"Su Bai!? You're actually sleeping in class? Don't you know that tomorrow is the day for the Martial Dao Awakening!?"
Just as Su Bai was gradually waking up from his nightmare...
He heard the roaring voice of his homeroom teacher, Xu Qing.
The next second...
The entire class erupted in laughter.
The gazes directed at Su Bai were filled with a strong sense of mockery.
After all...
Who didn't know that Su Bai was the Yuncheng No. 1 High School's notorious 'waste'?
Now, he was about to turn eighteen and begin his formal Martial Dao Awakening.
His Qi and Blood were pitifully low, less than one point.
And as for his strength, there was no need to mention it; it was practically negligible!
"Su Bai, come to my office after class!"
With that said...
Xu Qing, as the homeroom teacher, gave Su Bai a resentful look before continuing her lecture.
At this moment...
Su Bai gradually came back to his senses.
He looked around with a dazed expression, his face slightly solemn!
To be honest!
Although he had Transmigrated to this world eighteen years ago...
He still found it a bit hard to accept everything as it was now.
Horror had resurfaced, Evil Spirits ran rampant!
Large numbers of humans Awakened the Martial Dao to combat the Evil Spirits from Hell.
It could be said...
This was a world that revered the Martial Dao and was extremely chaotic.
Here!
Strength!
Was the best Pass!
But he, Su Bai, had been Transmigrated for eighteen years...
Let alone strength, he hadn't even Awakened a Golden Finger.
In fact, many times...
Su Bai felt...
That he might be an oddity among tens of thousands of Transmigrators.
Eighteen years had passed...
And the Golden Finger still hadn't arrived!
Afterward...
Not long after, the bell for the end of class rang.
Su Bai followed his homeroom teacher, Xu Qing, to the office.
Looking at the handsome and fair-skinned Su Bai, Xu Qing slowly sighed.
She thought...
How could such a handsome face be paired with such useless strength!?
Then, she took out Su Bai's test scores from yesterday and handed them to him.
When Su Bai saw the clear and chilling data on the report, he hung his head in shame.
Su Bai.
Qi and Blood: 0.86!
Strength: 180!
Let alone Su Bai, even Xu Qing felt a headache when she saw these numbers!
"Su Bai, tomorrow is the Martial Dao Awakening. Do you think with these scores, you can successfully Awaken!?"
Xu Qing sighed helplessly.
"Teacher Xu, I..."
Su Bai felt a pang of guilt, his heart filled with mixed emotions... "Alright, I won't say more. I wish you good luck. I hope a miracle happens during tomorrow's Martial Dao Awakening!"
With that said...
Xu Qing patted Su Bai's shoulder encouragingly.
With less than one point of Qi and Blood...
Awakening would be incredibly difficult.
One must know...
The prerequisite for a Martial Artist to Awaken was a Qi and Blood level of one point and a strength level of 0.5!
But looking at Su Bai's data... Xu Qing could only pray for a miracle to happen tomorrow!
Afterward...
Su Bai bid farewell to Xu Qing and left the office.
Just as Su Bai stepped out of the office, he immediately heard an extremely harsh taunt!
"I say, Fatty, what are you doing following Su Bai every day!? Do you also want to become a waste like him, who can barely Awaken!?"
As the words fell...
A man with luxurious clothes and a feminine appearance slowly appeared before Su Bai.
"Su Bai, I'm telling you, my Qi and Blood reached 1.2 in yesterday's test, and my strength reached 800!
Tomorrow, when we Awaken, just wait to be crushed by me!"
The effeminate man finished speaking, his face full of disdain and disgust.
Sarcastic laughter suddenly erupted, echoing in Su Bai's ears!
"Hahaha!"
Hearing this, Su Bai showed no reaction, but instead spoke to Fatty.
"Fatty, let's go!"
With that said...
He quietly walked out of the school.
"Wang Hao, you..."
Fatty glared at Wang Hao with anger, then quickly followed Su Bai's footsteps.
"What!? A waste isn't allowed to be talked about!? Hahaha!"
"Now, Lin Yueqing and you are like heaven and earth; your difference is like a chasm!"
"Su Bai, I'm telling you, after I Awaken tomorrow, with my strength, I will definitely be able to go to the Imperial Capital.
By then, you and Lin Yueqing will have absolutely no chance!"
Hearing this, Su Bai clenched his fists tightly, his face turning incredibly red.
In his mind, the cold and terrifying images from his earlier dream resurfaced.
Then... an extremely crazy thought appeared in his mind.
Refine him!
"Su Bai, Su Bai! Are you alright!?"
Seeing his friend's body turn cold and his eyes bloodshot, the Fatty beside him couldn't help but ask urgently.
"I'm fine!"
Su Bai suddenly came back to his senses, trying to calm the terrifying scene that had just appeared in his mind.
"You..."
But before Fatty could finish speaking...
Su Bai spoke first.
"Fatty, I'm going home now. See you tomorrow!"
With that said...
Su Bai slowly walked home.
At this moment... he only felt incredibly sleepy, an urgent desire to sleep!
After arriving home... looking at the empty and cold house.
Su Bai's expression held only endless indifference.
His parents had died long ago!
They died in the Evil Spirit invasion ten years ago!
Now...
He was the only one left in the house.
So... whether for himself or for the entire family, he had to shoulder the responsibility.
After thinking that...
Su Bai's heart couldn't help but become heavy.
Then, a sense of exhaustion and drowsiness suddenly overwhelmed him.
Su Bai couldn't resist any longer and collapsed onto the sofa, falling asleep instantly!
Entering the dream!
Su Bai seemed to enter a special state.
Black mist surged, roars and howls continuously sounded.
Countless ghosts and monsters constantly emerged, wildly waving their arms... They were... cold, sinister, terrifying!
At this moment!
Vast black Qi continuously emanated from Su Bai's body.
That power of a monarch and emperor, originating from his Bloodline...
Made all the countless vengeful spirits, fierce ghosts, and all Evil Spirit beings within a hundred miles...
Tremble and prostrate themselves on the ground!
And at this moment, Su Bai...
Was already deep in shock!
Because, standing before him was a Red-Clothed Female Ghost!
Wearing a wedding dress as red as blood, she walked step by step towards Su Bai!
This is... a Red-Clothed Female Ghost!?
Su Bai suddenly woke up, his face instantly becoming extremely solemn.
Even if he was stupid, he understood...
What a Red-Clothed Female Ghost represented in this era of horror's resurgence.
But... in the next second!
The Red-Clothed Female Ghost stopped still in front of him.
Her lips moved, ghostly whispers permeated the air!
At this moment...
Su Bai seemed to clearly hear the Red-Clothed Female Ghost in front of him.
She seemed to be calling him... Master... At the same time!
Inside the Yun City Garrison!
A piercing alarm suddenly blared.
Waking up the entire team guarding the peace of Yun City!
"Report, Captain, fierce ghosts have suddenly appeared in Yun City, numbering over ten!"
"Report, Captain, the number of fierce ghosts has already exceeded fifty!"
"Report, Captain, the number of fierce ghosts has already exceeded one hundred!"
"Report, Captain, a Red-Clothed Female Ghost has been sighted!"
As the last voice sounded, everyone in the Yun City Garrison headquarters was stunned.
A Red-Clothed Female Ghost!?
What the Hell... "Strength!?"
At this moment, Ma Long, the Captain of the Yun City Garrison, asked with extreme composure.
"Fifth-tier Ghost King!"
"What!?"
