Chapter 9: The Toughest Guardian

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After sweating it out in the gym, Jack went home and took a cold shower. He left the house feeling refreshed.

“Unfortunately, the Heavenly Realm Federation doesn’t allow ordinary people to use skills in the city. If they are found out, they might be detained or even killed on the spot! ”

Jack had never experimented with his skills.

The original Shield Envoy became Primordial Shield Envoy, and he even had an added [Shield Value] attribute.

This was obviously different from his original basic occupation!

God knows what would happen when Jack showed his skills. He would regret it if it caused a huge disaster.

This was a world where everyone had superpowers.

In order to deal with the abilities brought about by the Divine Realm game, the Heavenly Realm Federation set extremely complicated and cumbersome rules.

Ordinary people were not allowed to use damage skills in public areas.

Special occupations or occupations that required the usage of skills,

such as doctors, security guards, forging, and so on.

had to pass a test in order to get a certificate.

There were also regular assessments, psychological counseling, career evaluations, and so on.

Only by becoming a Guardian could he freely use his skills!

These rules were set by the top powerhouses of the Heavenly Realm Federation.

Any violators would be punished according to the rules by Heavenly Realm Federation.

At the thought of this, Jack’s desire to become a guardian grew.

“Jack, over here, over here!”

On the way to school, Jack met his best friend Mike again.

He swept away the dejected and dispirited feeling from the day before, and was extremely excited.

It was obvious that he was deeply attracted by the Divine Realm the night before and was addicted to it.

“Hey, Jack, it’s really amazing. I completed the novice dungeon yesterday and joined a few classmates to level up. I’m already Level 5 now…”

Mike was still chattering non-stop, talking about his experiences from yesterday.

After six hours of work, he had already earned a huge sum of 7 Silver Coins!

“I was busy talking about myself. Jack, how were you last night?”

They were almost to the school gate when Mike became concerned about Jack’s progress.

“It’s alright, I cleared the novice dungeon.”

Jack really told the truth.

For six hours, he spent most of his time there, staring blankly at the Killer Ghosts.

The Assassinator after him was also quite powerful! Jack was so shocked that he thought he was going to fail miserably.

Later on, the novice dungeon was indeed cleared, with an SSS grading.

Jack wasn’t the only one who knew. The whole world knew.

Hearing his good friend’s answer, Mike sighed and said seriously,

“Jack, I really don’t want to say this, but your lazy personality needs to change.”

“You have Grade B talent. Don’t waste it.

“Work hard and reach Level 70 or 80 before the college entrance examination. There’s no hope for top Guardian University, but you should be free to choose any other guardian university, right?”

Hearing his friend’s concerned words, Jack tried not to laugh.

He could only nod patiently and perfunctorily.

“Okay, got it.”

Mike didn’t pester him for long and changed the topic to [Legion].

“It’s said that Legion has Grade SSS-rank talent. If only I knew him!”

“…”

“What do you think his innate ability is? Could he really shapeshift into an entire army?”

“…”

…

The lessons during the day were not difficult.

Everyone would more or less have added some Intelligence in the Divine Realm.

Jack had always scored above 90 for his cultural class.

Therefore, he did not need to make these meaningless additions.

The requirements to enter the top guardian university were extremely harsh.

One had to score above 90 points for cultural classes, and above 80 points for combat classes.

Most people had failed to achieve that and did not manage to enroll into the guardian university.

Countless people in the Heavenly Realm Federation wanted to enter the guardian university.

They wanted to pass the competitive competition and change their fate.

Yet.

With such a large number of candidates every day, the guardian university only accepted 100,000 students!

Top-notch guardian universities, for example: the Imperial Capital Guardian University and Magic City Guardian University.

The annual admissions index was less than 200 people.

To be able to get into the top guardian university, one had to have at least Grade A talent!

Jack now aimed to enter a top-notch guardian university. Hence, a higher level was essential.

After a day of studying, the form teacher stayed behind to give her final speech.

“Students, you awakened your talents yesterday. I have a few important points to emphasize:

Those whose talents are below Grade C, focus on cultural classes. In the game, increase your occupation and life skills.

Blacksmith University, New Oriental Culinary School, and Lan Lan Nursing University are all good career paths.

Come to me later to collect relevant information and confirm your career paths.”

The teacher knocked on the podium and said seriously,

“Students with good talent should not be arrogant!”

“Fan Jia’er from Class 1 next door leveled up to Level 10 in six hours yesterday.

“The first Class Advancement is about to be completed. There’s a chance to break the record of the Class Advancement in this school!”

“This class’s vice president, Sin, is also very outstanding. Grade A talent, Level 10 in 6 hours. Everyone, clap!”

The sparse applause made the form teacher’s expression awkward.

He emphasized, “These are all examples that you need to follow!”

“…”

Hearing to the form teaching mumbling on stage,

Jack’s heart had flown back to his house long ago.

He really couldn’t wait any longer. He wanted to log into the Divine Realm again.

He needed more time to clear dungeons.

High-level equipment, skills, materials for strengthening equipment, and most importantly, EXP.

The levels of the Death Soldiers were based on his level.

The stronger he was, the stronger the Death Soldiers would be!

The form teacher’s words pulled Jack back to reality.

“…The Year Three students will organize a combat test tomorrow. The champion will receive a Silver reward for a suitable occupation. You can choose any equipment or skill you want!

“Those who want to participate can register with the study committee member Linda.”

“School is over!”

Silver reward?

Any skill or equipment?

Jack’s eyes shone.

There was such a good thing?

Although the Death Soldiers wouldn’t be able to take part in the combat test, he still had his [Shield Value] attributes!

The passive skill alone allowed him to be immune to any damage below 90 points!

In addition, his combat was very good. He was almost sure to win in this kind of combat competition!

Jack was extremely excited!

In order to become stronger, he had to seize every opportunity!

The 26 lives lost the previous night were still fresh in his mind!

“I have nothing to do during the day anyway.”

“Linda, I want to sign up for the combat test!”
