No. 1: Ling Jiu, 8.5 million
No. 2: Yang Ling’er, 4.8 million
No. 3: Ai Yuhe, 4.74 million

No. 5: Christopher Adam, 2.98 million

“Ugh… the number two and three spots did really change hands!”
“What’s going on?”
“How did Yang Ling’er and Ai Yuhe climb over Zhou Ji as well as the others?”
“Oh, come on! Four million? Were they on steroids or what?”
“Even if the Beast Tide caused their results to improve a lot, both Zhou Ji and Christopher also increased their score…”
Seeing the placement for numbers two and three on the leaderboard, all of the students were stunned.
Yang Ling’er and Ai Yuhe had been ranked eighth and ninth all this while; that had been the case for the past few weeks.
Last week, due to their injuries they had even dropped out of the top ten list.
Hoo, boy!
They had actually silently climbed their way to the top three this week. Even Zhou Ji and Christopher, the eternal number two and number three, had been pushed down!
What in the world had they done?
Zhou Ji and Christopher Adam both wondered the same too.
Being eternally number two and number three was already depressing enough. Nevertheless, that was fine and dandy. But now, they could not even be number two and three. How could they live with that?
“Yuhe, Ling’er, why are your results so good this week?”
The others only had normal relationships with the girls, so it did not look good to ask. Shi Gang, on the other hand, did not have such reservations. He approached the girls and asked, “Tell me, what secret do you two have? I want to improve my results too!”
Secret?
The trainees’ ears perked up.
“What secret is there?”
Ai Yuhe shook her head and said, “We just happened to ride on Ling Jiu’s coattails!”
“Ugh…”
Shi Gang paused for a moment and then exclaimed, “You two were teaming up with Ling Jiu?!”
“Yeah.”
Ai Yuhe nodded slightly. She was not embarrassed about riding on Ling Jiu’s coattails, and she did not care what others said.
She had already learned to let go. What good did “face” do her anyway?
The Superior life-enhancing liquid, the Superior Gene Arcana strengthening liquid, and the right to train on the first level of Underground Room 12 were the most important; the rest were not.
“No wonder their ranks improved so much; they teamed up with Ling Jiu!”
“Man, I’m jealous! If only Ling Jiu would also bring me along with him!”
“Bloody hell! Ling Jiu is just too strong! Not only has he been number one, but now he’s taken the two girls to the top three with him. He’s literally invincible!”
“You think? Ling Jiu is a monster with that Replication Arcana. He can even kill a Class 7 Direbeast, so what’s carrying two people to the top three?”
“He’s a leaderboard hogger! He’s not satisfied with taking first place, and now he’s bringing girls into the top three. How are we supposed to survive?”
“Pfeh, it’s not like it has any impact on you, as though you are in the top nine.”
…
After receiving Ai Yuhe’s answer, all of the students went into an uproar as they started to talk about it. Some were jealous, while some were bitter and angry.
The most unhappy of the lot were naturally Zhou Ji, Christopher, and Hirano Hatake. However, they were men beyond anything else, so they would not show their displeasure outwardly.
In comparison, the female European and American students like Christina Millie could no longer bear it. She immediately called them out.
“You cheat! You’re clearly cheating! With your strength, you are nowhere close to being second or third! You’re cheating by purely relying on Ling Jiu!”
Christina Millie rushed up to Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling’er as she growled angrily. “You two b*tches, without Ling Jiu, you guys aren’t even worth lifting my shoes for me. You two cheaters! Shameless cheaters!”
She had originally been ranked fifth, and after following Hirano Hatake closely, she had been able to enjoy an Intermediate-level Life-enhancing Liquid, Intermediate-level Gene Arcana Strengthening Liquid, and the right to use the second level of Underground Room 12. She thought that after putting in a bit more effort, she would be able to progress even further!
When the results were revealed, not only did she gain zero progress, but she dropped to seventh place. So, how could she take it lying down?
“That’s right! If you want to win, do it fair and square. If you lose, make it fair and square too! If you are that good, then hunt the Direbeasts yourself. What skill is there in relying on Ling Jiu?”
“Using such an underhanded method to take the training camp rewards… You two are just too shameless! I’m going to the camp commandant to lodge a complaint on the both of you!”
The two other female students who were ranked sixth and seventh also stood up as they tore Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling’er apart.
Both Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling’er’s pretty faces were flushed with anger, but they were powerless to refute the accusations.
Although the formation of their team was in line with the training camp’s rules and there was no problem at all, they did ride on Ling Jiu’s coattails. On top of that, they had indeed damaged Christina Millie and the other two girls’ interests.
“Ling’er, let’s go!”
Since they could not argue back, they might as well leave, so Ai Yuhe pulled Yang Ling’er away.
Christina Millie was honestly being unreasonable. She blocked the two of them as she hissed. “You want to leave? You can forget about leaving if you don’t give us your word today!”
“What word are you talking about?”
Ai Yuhe was angry.
“In front of everyone here, give us your word that you will never team up with Ling Jiu again, or else you can forget about leaving!” Christina Millie said disdainfully.
“That’s our own business, and it has nothing to do with you!”
Ai Yuhe was as cold as ice. “If you have the ability, look for Ling Jiu and team up with him then!”
“You…”
Christina Millie was so pissed that she was at a loss for words. She wanted to team up with Ling Jiu too, and she had looked for him more than once. Sadly, it had ended with Ling Jiu not answering her calls!
He never replied to her messages either!
Even when she had tried to seduce Ling Jiu in private, he had straight-up ignored her.
After many attempts, she realized that Ling Jiu was simply not interested in her, so the idea gradually faded. Otherwise, how would she have let Ling Jiu go?
She would have eaten him up long ago!
“I honestly can’t be bothered to poke my nose into your matters, but your actions have seriously damaged our interests and the fairness of competition. So, of course we have to care about it!”
The former sixth-ranked black girl, Edna Eddie coldly said, “Just give us your word. Promise in front of everyone that the both of you will not team up with Ling Jiu again in the future. Otherwise, don’t blame us for not holding back!”
“Whoa!”
“The five golden flowers are at each other’s throats!”
“Welp, there’s some drama to watch I guess!”
The other trainees all gathered around.
Christina Millie, Edna Eddie, Janet Ferguson, Ai Yuhe, and Yang Ling’er were the top five ranking girls.
At the same time, they were the golden flowers of the training camp and the five most popular girls there, even considered as goddesses in the minds of many trainees.
However, like all goddesses, they were beautiful yet cold, showing no interest in those low-ranking scrubs.
Forget the rest, they could just watch these five goddesses tear each other apart.
“You’ve gone too far!
“Me teaming up with my brother has nothing to do with you!” Yang Ling’er spat.
“Brother? You’re already calling him that? So, both of you are already riding him on the bed quite a bit then?”
Christina Millie sneered, “I really don’t understand why Ling Jiu would fancy a cripp—”
Slap!
Before Christina Millie could finish her sentence, the sound of a crisp slap rang out.
Everyone looked over in shock and saw Christina Millie cry all of a sudden. She clutched her cheeks as a trace of blood oozed out of the corner of her mouth.
“Who was it? You dare to hit me?”
Christina Millie’s eyes turned red.
“Your mouth is like a feces pit in the countryside during the summer. You just stink. It’s not your fault that you stink, but when you come out to pollute the place, then it becomes your fault!”
An indifferent voice rang out as everyone looked over to find a figure squeeze himself out of the crowd. It was the handsome Ling Jiu.
“Ling Jiu, how dare you hit me?”
