Free Web NovelThe reason it was set for the day after tomorrow was to give some students who were out of town time to return to school, specifically the top ten on the Xingyao List who were out.
Because Mingxi clearly stated that her goal was to be number one on the Xingyao List, the top ten had to be present.
However, half of the top ten were not currently at school, but the teachers in the Academic Affairs Office had contacted them and confirmed they could return within four days, so the challenge was set for the day after tomorrow, which is Wednesday.
With over 4,000 opponents, Mingxi couldn't finish in one day, so returning within four days was definitely enough time.
"This is outrageous! The 4266th-ranked person on the Xingyao List is undertaking a Sky Ladder Challenge. Is this the lowest-ranked Sky Ladder Challenger in our school's Xingyao List history?"
"Evidently. I remember the previous highest record was 527th place, but that senior failed the challenge and was defeated at 233."
"4266th place! Even if some people automatically surrender or forfeit because they can't make it back, there will still be at least 4,000 people who accept the challenge. Over 4,000 challenges! It feels like more than my hair!"
"Mingxi must be crazy!"
"Do you think she can succeed?"
"Does that even need asking? One hundred percent failure!"
"No energy replenishment, no healing, no item usage, continuously fighting 4,000 battles. Even if Mingxi has many powerful pet beasts, she can't withstand over 4,000 rounds of attrition warfare."
"And she's arrogant enough to demand the Extreme Sky Ladder, so why even think about it? She'll fail one hundred percent!"
The Extreme Sky Ladder is a Sky Ladder Challenge where one must fight against the top ten, and its difficulty is absolutely a hundred times that of a normal Sky Ladder Challenge.
No one was optimistic about Mingxi.
It wasn't because she wasn't strong enough, but because her ranking when she initiated the Sky Ladder Challenge was simply too low.
Over 4,000 challenges—even a donkey from a production team would be worked to death.
Although no one was optimistic, the teachers and students were exceptionally positive and expectant about this matter, and everyone was looking forward to this day arriving quickly.
And those students who received the news also rushed back one after another.
The citizens of An Ting City were also stirred, and the oppressive atmosphere caused by the Yun Gong Film City incident eased because of this.
It also revitalized a large number of struggling peripheral casinos.
For a time, An Ting City seemed to come alive again.
Those who didn't know would have thought Immortal University was about to hold a grand event.
Mingxi had nothing much to prepare for.
Although her identity was restored, she was still a student in Beast Taming Class 1.
Over these past two days, Mingxi's classmates' emotions have been a roller coaster. Yan Luoxi was already enough to make them wary, but then Yan Luoxi directly transformed into Mingxi.
That's just too much.
Although Yan Luoxi was also very talented, she truly couldn't compare to Mingxi, who had awakened six times at 15 years old.
They were simply not talents from the same world.
Facing Yan Luoxi, they felt they still had a chance to fight, and even if they weren't her match now, it wasn't impossible in the future.
But what about Mingxi?
Heh heh. freeweɓnøvel.com
It wasn't that they looked down on themselves; it was genuinely that they weren't worthy!
The only one in the class whose attitude towards Mingxi hadn't changed was Li Tangtang, although she was also shocked for a long time when she heard the news.
Mingxi attended classes and studied as usual.
Although Immortal University was wild in many ways, most of its courses were still very normal.
Especially the professional skill classes taught by Yue Zhong, a teacher with unique insights and extensive knowledge in extraordinary skills, not only benefited Mingxi greatly but also broadened the horizons of our little skill prince, Lan Yue.
He was currently dedicated to experimenting with new combination skills.
She also regularly delivered Light and Darkness Ni裳 to Xuan Ting and the others at the school gate.
Although the Film City was closed, the plays that needed to be filmed still had to continue.
So the male and female leads still had to buy Light and Darkness Ni裳 from Mingxi.
Because of Mingxi's life-saving grace, and because Mingxi was Mingxi, these three very actively and voluntarily raised the price of Light and Darkness Ni裳.
500,000 star coins per piece, with a minimum purchase of 13 pieces per person per day.
According to Xuan Ting's assistant, Xiao Lu, director Su Wei personally paid one-third, and the drama's investor dad paid another one-third.
As for the remaining one-third, they planned to demand compensation from the mastermind once he was caught.
Due to the Yun Gong Film City incident, all the "accidents" that occurred in various film crews naturally came into the eyes of the official bigwigs.
So whether those people were used as pawns or harbored malicious intentions themselves, they would be caught sooner or later.
Thus, Mingxi only earned this money for two days; the perpetrator was caught on the third day.
It wasn't Yue Lingling, who wanted to replace Xuan Ting, but the Substitute for the female lead, Aiko.
Her biological cousin, Hayata Keiko.
What do you call this?
A relative's blade is the most fatal.
Well, Mingxi had already seen it coming.
They had all recovered, and Mingxi's source of income was thus cut off.
4.5 million star coins a day—who wouldn't be dazed by that kind of money?
Even Lan Yue, who was accustomed to being aloof, started singing, accompanied by Emerald Green's daily hums: "Today is a good day, everything you wish for can come true."
Just goes to show how sweet that money was.
Alas, it's all the fault of that useless perpetrator. After watching Detective Conan for so many years, how could he not even manage a perfect crime?
Bad review!
Wednesday was the second day the business went bust.
It was also the day the Sky Ladder Challenge began.
Originally, the Sky Ladder Challenge should have also taken place in the arena area, but considering Mingxi's situation, the school decided to set the challenge location in the more spacious Xianzong Plaza.
Early in the morning, Xianzong Plaza was already bustling with people outside.
Normal people couldn't get in through normal means.
Fortunately, apart from the students from ordinary colleges, there were hardly any normal people in this school; people were constantly ready to fight in the arena at the slightest disagreement.
Why are you pushing me?
Little sister, don't talk nonsense with your red lips and white teeth. Am I pushing you? I'm pushing youth!
Damn your youth! Sister will let you know what it means to lose your youth right now!
Hey, what a short temper I have!
...
May this prosperous age be as you wish.
Fortunately, the school was aware of its students' tendencies and had dispatched security teams early on.
Students with tickets were ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) allowed to enter in line, while those without tickets were told to leave immediately.
Yes.
Tickets.
This was Shen Najia's idea.
"Mingxi's fame is there, plus the gimmick of 4265 Extreme Sky Ladder challenges. Can't you see any business opportunities?"
"Worried that Mingxi might have emotions? Does her having emotions matter? ...Well, it does matter a little. That little fellow... Sigh, how about this: tell her she'll get 40% of the ticket and broadcast rights income afterward!"
That's how things were.
Mingxi, seeing the 40% income, naturally didn't dare to show any emotion.
The logistical staff of Immortal University were quite capable.
In addition to the central arena, tiers of stands were built around the periphery.
Seats, walkways, sound systems, a high and exquisite canopy, and independent VIP boxes.
