Chapter 136: Strength Rating
The white light faded, and the strength evaluation for everyone concluded.
Some were happy, while others were filled with worry.
"I can't go on like this! I'm only at the initial stage of the Soldier rank!"
"Haha, be content with that. Hundreds of students in Class F out there probably didn't even reach the initial Soldier rank!"
"Life is good, I’m at the peak of the Soldier rank! Who dares to compete with me?" a student from Class A boasted, wishing everyone knew he had reached the peak of the Soldier rank.
Shangguan Chaoyue said coldly, "Hmph, it's only the peak of the Soldier rank; what is there to brag about?"
The Class A student was displeased: "You trash who only got in as a substitute, what about you? What are you?"
Shangguan Chaoyue opened her Wisdom Particle data, and above her head, it clearly displayed: "Initial General Rank!"
"Wow! General rank! So strong!"
"I heard that once you reach the General rank, you can join the Shadow Legion or the White Cloud and Stray Dog organization directly! I'm so envious!"
Shangguan Chaoyue basked in the surprise, praise, and jealousy of the surrounding students, while intentionally casting her gaze toward Chen Mo, as if to say: Did you see that, Chen Mo? This is my strength! What about you? If you have the ability, open yours!
However, Chen Mo didn't even acknowledge Shangguan Chaoyue’s gaze; instead, he locked his eyes on Gongzi Wei and Zhang Shengmo.
Data Scan!
Gongzi Wei, initial Marquis rank!
Zhang Shengmo, peak General rank!!
Good heavens!!
Are they really that strong? When he fought Gongzi Wei, he didn't feel like the man was particularly formidable. Chen Mo realized it was because the S-rank zombie’s attributes were so overwhelming that he couldn't perceive Gongzi Wei’s true strength.
"Brother! What is your strength level?" Ning Xuan blinked her large eyes, looking forward to Chen Mo’s answer.
The strength ranking would be revealed sooner or later, so Chen Mo didn't bother to hide it and said truthfully, "High-level General rank!"
Chen Mo's words reached the ears of the surrounding students, immediately causing an uproar.
"Chen Mo, what did you say just now? What are you?"
Chen Mo said indifferently, "High-level General rank, is there a problem?"
*Hiss—*
A wave of envious gazes swept over him.
"High-level General rank! This—this is too strong!"
"I heard Instructor Yue Hu is only at the high-level General rank; he’s already caught up to the instructor’s level!"
"No wonder he could rank first. It seems it wasn't just luck; he really relies on his strength."
"Brother Chen Mo, teach me, I want to be as amazing as you!!"
Shangguan Chaoyue’s radiant smile turned ashen instantly, as if her chest had been struck by a heavy blow. She glared at Chen Mo with resentment: Why! Why! Why is that guy at the high-level General rank! I won't admit defeat; I will surpass you! I will definitely surpass you!!
Shangguan Chaoyue’s personality was more stubborn and extreme than any boy’s! Whatever she set her mind to do, she would put in 200% effort to achieve it!
The female elf appeared once again: "Everyone, you have 20 minutes left to access the instance shop and purchase items. Please note, the points from the 'Survival of the Fittest' instance can only be used in the 'Survival of the Fittest' shop! Different instances have different shops and different point currencies, so please use your points wisely!"
Chen Mo’s heart surged with excitement! He had a hundred million points! He wondered what he could buy; he was so looking forward to it!
Chen Mo waved his hand, pushing away the girls who were intentionally brushing against him: "Everyone, no need to crowd around me. After we get out, when I have time, I will definitely share my insights with you all. Everyone should go check out the instance shop!"
One student heard "instance shop" and burst into tears: "I have zero points, what am I supposed to shop for!"
Chen Mo took his sister to a small wooden hut by the sea and opened the instance shop: "Ning Xuan, don't rush to spend your points. Let me take a look first!"
Ning Xuan was speechless: "I know, I'm not a child!"

Tch! A waste of excitement! Chen Mo thought high-level instances would have high-end items, but it was just like the beginner instance, only with slightly higher tiers.
The most ridiculous thing was the appearance of "Very Excellent Ordinary Person." Would there be "Very, Very Excellent Ordinary Person" next time?
Chen Mo, representing the Association for the Protection of Ordinary People, lodged a strong protest, requesting fair treatment for ordinary people from the system!
Sticking to the principle of "better to buy than not," Chen Mo purchased the [Very Excellent Ordinary Person] character pack. After all, it offered a decent attribute boost, and he had heard that ordinary people could potentially roll very powerful special skills.
[Purchase successful, congratulations, you have been upgraded to a Very Excellent Ordinary Person]
[Obtained Skill—Virility-Boosting Chive Scrambled Eggs]
Chen Mo: ...
Meimei! Come out here! I’m going to kill someone, ahhh!!
The skill he learned last time was Golden Egg Fried Rice, and this time it was Virility-Boosting Chive Scrambled Eggs. Is his profession that of a chef?
*Ding-a-ling!*
The female elf Meimei actually appeared beside Chen Mo. One had to know that in the instance lobby, everyone shared a single female elf—the one floating above the hall.
That Meimei could appear directly in the lobby shocked Chen Mo.
"Master, don't be angry. I checked for you; the skill is not a mistake. Ordinary people do indeed have a chance to randomly obtain food-based skills!"
Food-based skills?
Chen Mo’s eyes lit up. That’s right! Why hadn't he thought of that? Instructor Chicken Leg wasn't he a food-based mage? The chicken legs he created were edible, and they could also grant shields and heal teammates!!
Could it be that his Golden Egg Fried Rice and Virility-Boosting Chive Scrambled Eggs were also food-based magic?
"Meimei, can you help me check the skill information?"
"Hmm..." Meimei hesitated, but soon said, "Alright, Master, I'll check it secretly for you, just a moment."
Ning Xuan looked confused: "Brother, did you call me?"
"Meimei" and "Little Sister" sounded very similar. Chen Mo laughed awkwardly: "Hehe, yes, yes, I called you. That... attribute points are very useful, buy some more!"
Ning Xuan struggled: "But I only have 350,000 points. I want to buy an advanced Mage pack and two skill books, and then my points will be gone."
Chen Mo finally remembered that not everyone had a hundred million points like him to spend freely.
Looking at his sister’s conflicted expression, Chen Mo felt helpless. His points couldn't be transferred to his sister. A bold idea suddenly popped into his head: draw his sister's Wisdom Particle into his own body, use his points to buy items for her, and then return the particle.
That was suicide! Too reckless! Chen Mo quickly shook off the thought. It was too risky, and even if he were to test it, he wouldn't use his sister's Wisdom Particle.
