Altar Square.

The place was still bustling, with stalls set up, auctions ongoing, goods being collected, and teams forming amidst the noisy crowd.

However, this time, compared to the first few days, there was a noticeable difference, for near the altar, there gathered a group of first-tier professionals whose levels were generally around Level 25. Apart from a few exceptions, each person was very well-equipped.

The individuals who were engaged in discussions fell silent the moment Zi Liyuan arrived, staring at him in disbelief, their expressions akin to having seen a ghost.

“Second tier? Holy shit, Zi Liyuan advanced to second tier?”

“Is there even any room for us to live?!”

“Could he not be so outrageous? I’ve fought tooth and nail, grinding day and night in dungeons and against wild monsters, and I’m still just first-tier Level 27!”

“A freak of nature! He’s just here to crush our spirits!”

“Sob, he’s been over us since our first year of high school, and now with college entrance exams looming, he’s still here to crush our self-confidence. Life is tough enough!”

“It’s truly unbelievable. Clearly, he’s got a hidden profession. He must have received an invitation. Why come and steal our chance at becoming top scholars?!”

“Damn it! In the past three entrance exams nationwide, none of the top scholars managed to break through to the second tier. How did this freak do

it?”

“You’re asking me? Who should I ask? I wish I could level up that fast!”

A group of elites from Jiangnan Province looked at Zi Liyuan with eyes full of envy and various other grievances.

Being in the same generation as such a freak was truly unfortunate for them.

Super scholars are born every year, and those proficient in both literary and martial virtues are not uncommon. But even super scholars come in different ranks.

Some struggled to barely come first in yearly assessments, always at risk of being overtaken, but this guy was restricted by the limited points of the assessment itself!

For other super scholars, the assessment content was the ceiling, but for him, the content was the floor. It truly mirrored the line ‘Separated by desolate sorrow, each year brings a fresh woe.’

Amidst the discussions and complaints of these elites, Zi Liyuan, with his current strength, naturally overheard everything. Nonetheless, he faced them with a smile and even greeted a few familiar super scholars warmly.

He then decisively entered the altar space, leaving behind a group of prodigies outside, their faces ashen as if their livers were pigmented.

Throughout three years of high school, even a super scholar like Shen Yurou could only begrudgingly stay in the second-place spot. The super scholars outside had long been crushed by his dominance, losing their fighting will, and had been suppressed for three years, both in literary and martial virtue.

This time entering the altar space brought about another change.

Previously, only the first and second levels were open, but now the restriction on the third level had disappeared, so Zi Liyuan directly entered the third level of the altar.

This time, the number of dungeons available in the altar caught his eye.

On the second level, the number of dungeons seemed to have been restricted by White Crane Academy, offering only a carefully selected range to these novice professionals.

But the third level clearly had no such limitations, as there were over a thousand dungeons available, with as many as fifty at Level 60.

“As one of the Nine Great Divine States Academy, the number of dungeons is truly terrifying.”

Frankly speaking, having control over a second-order dungeon could create a mid-sized family clan, and with a Level 60 dungeon, if used well, there should be no problem in elevating such a clan to the peak of mid-size.

White Crane Academy displayed such an array openly, and these dungeons would be accessible to the talents within the academy.

“Besides the military, with their vast numbers uncovering a horde of Fourth Order warriors, the peak Fourth Order warriors from the Nine Great Divine States Academy must be the most numerous, right?

This made Zi Liyuan all the more eager to get into Dragon Academy.

Shaking his head, he set the dungeon level cap at Level 60 and started to select from the fifty available dungeons, looking at them.

Underwater dungeons, cave dungeons, elemental dungeons… Each one appeared to have different themes, but overall, they were mostly terrestrial terrains.

Thinking of the Hell Demon Marionette, he casually picked a plain terrain dungeon—Jackalwolf Plains.

Just as he selected Hero mode, a pitch-black vortex suddenly appeared and swept Zi Liyuan into it.

The next instant, Zi Liyuan found himself on a boundless plain, surrounded by lush grass and basking in comforting sunlight, with a scent of roasted meat wafting through the air.

Uh, Zi Liyuan looked ten meters away to see seven or eight Jackalwolves squatting on the ground, gnawing on the roasted leg of some creature, especially their green, vertical pupils which were sizing him up from head to toe, as if contemplating which part of him would taste tender and sweet when roasted.

“Hey, fellas, how about some cumin and chili powder?”

Zi Liyuan looked at the Jackalwolf squad with a smile on his face, greeted them politely, and even pulled out two cans of cumin and chili powder as a friendly gesture.

“Human! Delicacy! Catch him!”

“No one snatch from me, I want his thigh. It’s very chewy when roasted!”

“I want his head. I can finally make a human skull drinking goblet!

“I want his little arms. They are very tender. Ali was complaining last time about not getting to eat the tender meat of human little arms!” “Leave the meaty butt for me! That’s where the most tender fat is, pairing it with some herbs makes for an absolute delicacy!

The Jackalwolves howled, tossing aside their roasted meat, picked up their weapons, and charged at Zi Liyuan, while quickly divvying up their desired spoils of war.

“Man, I’m not even dead yet, and I’m being carved up already?

Zi Liyuan had a face full of disbelief, and at the same time felt a bit odd. When did the monsters in this module become so intelligent?

But now was not the time to think about that. He had to take down these Jackalwolves first before he could investigate the abnormalities of this module. “Little guys, thinking of ganging up on the fewer? Bring it on, my Skeleton Army!”

Clutching the Magic Wand, a huge summoning formation appeared before him, so large that it even encompassed the Jackalwolves.

The next moment, 256 Skeleton Knights appeared within a cloud of grey fog, instantly blocking his front as densely as a wall.

The Jackalwolves, who had just initiated a charge, were now sandwiched within the formation of the Skeleton Knights. Forget about continuing to charge towards Zi Liyuan-they practically collided with the bone horses of the Skeleton Knights and nearly got their faces impaled on the ribs.

[Skeleton Knight LV9]: Physical Damage 154, Physical Defense 62, Health 830, Skill: Charge.

After activating the attack aura, the Skeleton Knights’ physical damage was pretty decent.

At this moment, Zi Liyuan also gauged the actual strength of these Jackalwolves.
