Transcending Godhood: I Extract Keywords and Crush the Gods

Bai Ye leaned closer.

He had expected to see some shock or fear on Lin Yuan's face.

After all, this is the fall of a true god.

He only saw a completely expressionless profile.

"What a freak." Bai Ye rolled his eyes inwardly, muttering to himself, "Is this guy's heart made of iron?"

On the podium.

Wen Muxue coldly observed the thirty new students.

She didn't really want to stand here.

Looking at these little guys who haven't even grown their first hair yet, she just felt annoyed.

If it weren't for that old geezer taking advantage of his position as the vice-principal of the university to dump this mess on her.

She should be in the abyss rift of the Seventh Star Sector right now, slicing the Void Mother Worm that bit Chen Lie into raw worm pieces.

"A bunch of burdens," Wen Muxue thought to herself with a cold sneer.

She didn't want to offer even a single word of comfort.

So what if someone dies? People die every day at Starry Sky University.

She just wanted to get rid of these newbies as soon as possible.

"Quiet."

"I don't care how talented you are in your respective regions, once you come here, you're all just a bunch of ants."

Wen Muxue tapped the lectern, without uttering a single word: "I'll give you two weeks."

"The next task is to invade another plane. Whether it's an alien plane or an abyssal rift, it's up to you."

"If you are still alive and standing here in two weeks, we can discuss the future teaching arrangements."

"If you die, the school will send an electronic obituary to your family free of charge."

These words caused a stir in the classroom.

No one cared about the cold-bloodedness in Wen Muxue's words; none of the people sitting in this Class 3 were truly spineless.

The fear they felt upon hearing of the fall of the true god was less evident in their eyes.

There was an undercurrent of barely concealed anticipation.

Go plunder! Go kill! Go seize the laws and resources of other planes.

This is their real purpose in coming to Starry Sky University.

Seeing the reactions of the new students, Wen Muxue's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

There was no crying or protesting.

"It seems that the quality of this year's class is barely acceptable." Wen Muxue's irritation subsided a little.

Just as she was about to announce the disbandment, the woman with glasses in the third row on the left raised another question.

"Ms. Wen," the girl with glasses raised her hand and said, "I'm Chu Xiaoxiao. Excuse me, doesn't our class elect class officers?"

This question voiced the sentiments of everyone present.

At Starry Sky University, the class monitor is not some kind of errand-running service position.

According to publicly available intelligence from previous administrations.

The class monitor receives an extra 500 credits of academic support each month and has the privilege of using the school's public starship once a month for free.

In addition, the class monitor's position naturally brings them closer to the mentor, making it easier for them to receive personal guidance from the mentor.

Of course, for these geniuses present, who often have powerful gods backing them up, this is a different story.

So-called guidance is nothing rare; who doesn't know a few true gods?

What they really value is the opportunity to take advantage of being the class monitor.

I came into contact with many ordinary students who had no right to know the inside story of Starry Sky University.

Who wouldn't be envious of this if they wanted to quickly climb the ranks of the gods?

Wen Muxue raised an eyebrow, and an impatient look reappeared on her face.

"Starry Sky University doesn't use that kind of democratic voting system."

She pointed to the star keys in everyone's hands.

"Your Star Keys are connected to the school's Star Matrix. They record your every move in alien planes and on the battlefields of the Abyss."

"Killing enemies, plundering, and destroying anchors of faith will all be converted into academic credits."

"Whoever has the highest number of credits in two weeks will be the class monitor. It's that simple."

Wen Muxue grabbed the lesson plan from the lectern, turned around, and walked towards the door.

"Just a heads up. You currently have one thousand initial credits in your Star Key."

"Take this money and go to the StarNet Hall to buy coordinates, intelligence, or exchange for supplies."

"If that's not enough, use the resources you brought with you to fill the gap."

"Don't try to save a few credits by plunging into a dimension beyond your capabilities. If you die, no one will come to collect your corpse."

"get out of class dismissed."

Da, da, da.

The sound of high heels quickly faded into the distance.

Wen Muxue left decisively, leaving everyone with only a cold and indifferent figure.

The first lecture for freshmen ended in less than ten minutes.

With their leader gone, the thirty people in the classroom began their respective tasks.

Someone activated the Star Key and began browsing the redemption list in the internal store.

Some people opened their personal terminals, contacted senior students they knew, and spent a lot of money to buy relatively safe dimensional coordinates.

Several other people stood up from their seats and walked towards the classmates who looked imposing.

They attempted to form gangs and raiding squads on the spot.

The melancholy man, who had been sitting in the corner with his head down playing with a coin, flicked his finger, and the coin turned into a stream of light in mid-air and disappeared back into his sleeve.

Without even glancing at the people around him, he got up and walked straight out of the classroom.

Lin Yuan did not move.

When Wen Muxue mentioned that the Star Key contained a thousand basic credits, he had already separated a wisp of his spiritual power to connect to the Star Key.

A screen of light appeared in my mind.

A dense stream of information scrolls across the light screen.

He skipped over the blueprints for weapons, armor, and divine realm buildings, and entered a few keywords into the search bar.

A file titled "Freshman's Guide to Plundering Dimensions (Internal Access Version)" popped up.

Price: 500 credits.

It's really dark.

With an initial investment of one thousand, you have to cut your investment in half every time you buy a piece of intelligence.

Lin Yuan didn't hesitate and clicked to buy immediately.

A flood of information rushed into my mind.

This guide details the hundreds of alien planes currently under the control of Starry Sky University that are suitable for new students to explore.

Coordinates, racial characteristics, and the degree of suppression by laws—it has everything.

Just as Lin Yuan was quickly filtering through the information, a figure strode up to his desk.

This is a tall, slender boy with wild red hair.

He was wearing a sleeveless, specially made combat suit, with faint fire patterns flowing across his skin.

"You must be Lin Yuan from Tianhai Province!"

The red-haired boy placed his hands on Lin Yuan's table, his eyes burning with intensity.

"My name is Yan Lie! I come from the Blazing Sun Region, and I have awakened the [Lava Master] Divine Domain!"

"I watched your big exam video; those monsters of yours are right up my alley. A real man should fight with brutal force!"

Yan Lie patted his chest, making a loud thud: "How about it? Let's team up! We'll pick a Platinum-level or higher alien coordinate and charge in together."

"You handle the frontal assault, and my war beast will take care of the flanks and attacks. We'll definitely wipe out those aliens!"

Yan Lie has a very loud voice.

His shout drew the attention of many people in the classroom.

Lin Yuan's reputation is widespread, with 77 million points in Tianhai Province, plus the incredible feat of shattering the core source with the final punch in the final exam.

Although everyone present was a prodigy from their respective provinces, no one dared to underestimate this freak from humble origins.

They also wanted to see what Lin Yuan's attitude was towards forming a team.

Bai Ye pricked up his ears and his eyes darted around.

Lin Yuan raised his head and looked at the boy in front of him, whose whole body seemed to be burning.

He had just discovered a special target plane in the guide.

In that dimension, he can pull off some minor tricks.

With this little trick, he could take down that dimension all by himself.

Therefore, no one else needs to join.

"I'm sorry," Lin Yuan said calmly, without any inflection. "I'm used to being alone."

The refusal was swift and decisive, leaving no room for negotiation.

Those secretly observing from the sidelines had various expressions.

Some people sneered, thinking that Lin Yuan was too arrogant.

Some people frowned and began to reassess the level of danger Lin Yuan posed.

Bai Ye rolled his eyes; he knew this would be the outcome.

Lin Yuan is the kind of guy who, like me, hides his trump cards more tightly than his own life.

How could I possibly team up with a complete idiot I've only known for less than ten minutes to raid another dimension?

Yan Lie was stunned for a moment.

He thought that even if he was rejected, the other party would come up with a plausible reason.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan didn't even bother with formalities.

When faced with such a public humiliation, most people would feel embarrassed and even angry.

But Yan Lie did not.

He stared at Lin Yuan for three seconds, and instead of getting angry, he became excited as if a powder keg had been lit.

"Good! No wonder he's known as the commoner demon king!"

Yan Lie raised his head, his eyes burning with a chuunibyou-like and fanatical flame.

"True strength never needs the protection of a pack! A lone wolf always roams the wilderness alone!"

"Lin Yuan! I acknowledge you! Since you're unwilling to team up, then let's have a duel between men!"

He pointed to the classroom door: "Two weeks from now! Let's see who brings back a higher-grade dimensional core! I, Yan Lie, will never lose to you!"

After saying that, Yan Lie laughed wildly, turned around, and walked out of the classroom.

Lin Yuan stood there, watching Yan Lie's back, which seemed to have its own background music, and his eyes twitched slightly.

He is increasingly impressed by the diversity of human species at Starry Sky University.

The day before yesterday, I met a talkative little sun girl named Xia Luoluo on the spaceship, and today I met a late-stage chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) guy whose head is full of passionate manga quotes.

To be assigned to the high-risk Class 3 with an extremely high mortality rate, yet still have a personality that leans towards this type.

How exactly did Yan Lie's family raise him?

Ignoring the strange looks from those around him, Lin Yuan walked straight to the classroom door.

The guide is in hand, and the target has been identified.

There's no need for him to waste any more time here.

Bai Ye sat in his seat, watching Lin Yuan's back, and tentatively whistled.

Lin Yuan didn't stop walking; he just turned his head slightly and gave Bai Ye a look.

The meaning in his eyes was clear: stay away, do your own thing.

"Alright, have a good day, take care." Bai Ye shrugged, watching Lin Yuan's figure disappear through the classroom door.

It looks like I won't be able to latch onto this powerful figure for the time being.

After Lin Yuan left, the people in the classroom gradually dispersed.

Bai Ye slowly walked out of the teaching building.

He found a secluded corner and activated the Star Key's remote communication function.

beep--

The holographic projection unfolded in mid-air.

In the scene, Su Yueying is wearing a white combat uniform and is sitting in a conference room.

"Get to the point, I'm busy." Su Yueying didn't even look up, she was flipping through the documents in her hand.

"Miss Su, you have no conscience at all." Bai Ye leaned against the wall and sighed. "You have no idea how crazy those freaks in Class Three are."

"That mentor named Wen Muxue doesn't speak a human language; she's just pushing us to our deaths."

"On the first day of school, they're sending us to raid other planes! If we don't see grades in two weeks, we're fired!"

"I just saw a guy who uses Gu worms drain half his blood to buy an Abyss coordinate in exchange for credits."

"My arms and legs are so small and weak, how can they withstand this kind of torment?"

Su Yueying paused in flipping through the documents, looked up, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Half a month? Starry Sky University's pace is even faster than the intelligence reports."

She seemed to remember something and murmured, "What about Lin Yuan? He must have been assigned to Class 3 too."

"Don't even mention that guy." Bai Ye rolled his eyes. "He's totally in his element. Someone asked him to team up just now, and he didn't even look at them properly, he just turned it down."

"I reckon he's already single-handedly choosing the dimensional coordinates."

Su Yueying was not surprised when she heard this.

As someone from the same province, the same city, and even the same high school as Lin Yuan.

She witnessed Lin Yuan's journey from a recognized wasteland oracle awakener to where he is today.

His amazing performance during the big exam, and his ultimate punch when facing the Abyss Source Beast.

Even now, in this top federal academy teeming with monsters, Lin Yuan still maintains an astonishing level of execution.

"Lin Yuan's success today has never been due to luck," Su Yueying said in a complicated tone.

"The kind of person he is born to be in a cannibalistic place like Starry Sky University."

Just then, a head peeked out from the corner of the holographic screen.

It's Xu Xingyan.

Holding a gleaming starlight staff, she peered out and asked, "Bai Ye, what do you want with Sister Su?"

"Go away, kids shouldn't interfere in adult matters." Bai Ye waved his hand and put on a fawning smile as he looked at Su Yueying.

"Sister Su, let's make a deal. We're fellow townsmen from Tianhai Province, after all, and we even formed an alliance during the college entrance exam."

"Want to consider giving me a hand? Let's team up and run a low-risk instance. I'll provide you with undead cannon fodder to clear the mines, and I promise I won't steal your kills!"

Su Yueying looked at Bai Ye's face, which was grinning like a chrysanthemum, and sneered.

"No need."

As a former ally, she knew all too well what kind of person Bai Ye was.

This person is like a slippery eel, impossible to handle.

It's fine for casual chatting and exchanging information.

On the battlefield, this guy's undead cannon fodder is useful, but his ability to hide his trump card with "Void Dream Spirit" is even more disgusting.

Who knows if he'll pretend to be dead again and try to take advantage of the situation?

"If I team up with you, I'm afraid you'll sell me out and I'll still have to count the money for you."

"If I really want to form a team, I might as well go to Lin Yuan. At least he actually does things after taking the benefits."

Snapped.

After saying that, Su Yueying decisively cut off the communication, and the holographic projection disappeared.

"Feed? Hey!"

Bai Ye shouted twice at the air, on the verge of tears.

"These women, they're all so pragmatic."

He sighed.

Old friends know you inside and out; they're really not easy to fool.

The road ahead will either require them to fight those alien races to the death on their own.

Alternatively... the only option is to find a few new accomplices at school who are unaware of their true background.

But on second thought, that's unlikely.

I was, after all, the second-place finisher in the major exam in Tianhai City.

The last trump card, the Diamond-tier Undead, has already been sold off by various information brokers.

Labels like "cunning," "treacherous," "opportunistic," and "shameless" are probably already plastered on his file folder.

"This is going to be difficult."

Bai Ye stroked his chin, pacing back and forth in distress.

Suddenly, a fiery red figure flashed through his mind.

Intense heat!

Bai Ye's eyes lit up.

This guy looks like a brainless idiot with nothing but muscles in his head and a completely straightforward, stupid brain.

The Divine Realm is the [Lava Controller], with high output and a fiery temper, making it most suitable for taking the lead and attracting fire.

What I, as a necromancer, lack most is a high-quality front-line tank that can withstand damage.

Most importantly, this kind of immature teenager can be easily manipulated by pleasing him.

Just give him some hypnotic stuff like "bonds," "passion," and "for glory," and you'll be fooled every time!

"Hehehe..."

White Night let out a chilling low laugh.

He straightened his flashy white trench coat, strode off, and quickly chased after Yan Lie in the direction he had left.

"Brother Yanlie! Wait for me! I think you were absolutely right! A real man should conquer the stars and the sea!"

"Actually, I've disliked that kid Lin Yuan for a long time! I'll help you out; let's pull off something big and give him a good thrashing!"
