Rise of the Zerg in the World of Gods

Chapter 20: Announcing the Rankings, New Student Champion!



When destroying the Goblin tribe, it was a one-sided massacre, so there wasn't a very vivid impression.

It wasn't until the battle with the Two-Headed Ogres that he realized just how formidable this student's species was!

To put it bluntly, at this early stage when everyone was just starting, Xu Luo, with his tens of thousands of Zerg, had few opponents at the Bronze tier.

Although it was eventually revealed that his species lacked anti-air capabilities, how many people had flying units at this point? Who wasn't lacking when facing flying units?

"Xu Luo, you... did very well!"

Zhang Jianming patted the shoulder of the young man beside him. His facial expressions were rich, changing constantly like a chameleon. He had a lot to say, but in the end, he could only squeeze out this one sentence.

"Teacher, you're too kind."

Xu Luo knew his performance should have been very good, but without the final results, he still wasn't certain.

"My performance should have been okay, right?"

"Xu Luo, stop being so modest!"

Hearing Xu Luo's words, the surrounding classmates gathered around to tease him.

"It's not just okay, it's absolutely amazing!"

"You're definitely the first in this assessment. The title of New Student Champion is undoubtedly yours!"

"You're the first person I know from Sixth Middle School who dared to counter-invade the invaders' plane. Xu Luo, you're too awesome!"

"Now let's see how those second-generation rich kids, those so-called elite class students, can look down on others. You've trampled them all!"

Everyone surrounded Xu Luo, offering words of praise.

On both sides of the formation, students from Class 18 and Class 20 were also watching.

Although not as enthusiastic as Class 19, the admiration in their eyes was undisguised.

The conflict between wealthy families and humble backgrounds wasn't formed in a day or two, or even in one or two generations.

This contradiction was reflected in all aspects.

The closed loop of social classes basically predetermined everything, with upward channels closed. It was as difficult as ascending to heaven for ordinary people to change their social class.

Now, someone from a humble background had trampled all the wealthy family children. This was why everyone was so happy.

Faced with his classmates' enthusiasm, Xu Luo felt a bit at a loss.

For the past month, he had been like a transparent person in the class, going to and from classes with barely any interaction with others.

In contrast to the bustling atmosphere in Class 19, the mood in Class 1's formation was very depressing.

Born into wealthy families, they had received treatment from birth that others couldn't even dream of in a lifetime. They truly stood at a height that others could hardly reach after a lifetime of struggle.

After entering school, while others were still quibbling over small resources, they received support from both the school and their families. Yet, even in this situation, they were still trampled by a commoner from an ordinary class. This was what made them even more embarrassed.

It would have been better if everyone had started from the same starting line. But they had received so many resources and still couldn't surpass others. If given the same resources, wouldn't it mean they couldn't even see others' shadow?

"Xiang Xun, you can't keep your New Student Champion title now!"

Beside him, a girl couldn't help but tease.

Xiang Xun had always considered himself the top freshman, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.

"It's just luck, his species mutated. Who knows if it can continue to mutate and reach Silver tier!"

Xiang Xun snorted coldly.

Born into wealthy families, they knew more than others.

Species mutations could be good or bad. Some fell from the clouds to the bottom, while others soared high. But more often, there was one mutation that seemed good, but then there were no more changes. The species couldn't advance or improve, so everything was still uncertain!

Mutation was ultimately just a shortcut. The future was still unknown.

Behind him was the Xiang family. His species had dragon blood, and with continuous advancement, there was even hope for blood regression in the future, cultivating true dragons. This was the real path to the heavens.

Although blood regression was a difficult and costly process, he had the Xiang family behind him, able to provide continuous financial support. His progress would be steady and firm, unlike some people who were just lucky for a moment.

In time, trampling everyone underfoot would just be a matter of time.

Commoners would always be commoners.

He, as heaven's favorite, was destined to soar in the nine heavens.

Of course, no matter how Xiang Xun envisioned the future, Xu Luo still took the top freshman spot this time, becoming the well-deserved New Student Champion.

Although Zhao Yiming was extremely unwilling, as the Educational Director, he had to go on stage to announce the results.

"In this monthly exam, a total of 1,413 students from 28 classes in the freshman year participated in the assessment. 73 people passed, defending for over 20 minutes. The rest failed!"

Although everyone already knew the results, when they were officially announced, there was still an uproar. Out of over 1,400 people, only 73 passed? That's a pass rate of just one in twenty! Moreover, Class 1 took 50 spots, meaning only 23 from ordinary classes passed?

This meant some classes had no one pass at all?

Zhao Yiming ignored these people's feelings and quickly read out the top ten rankings for the grade.

"First place, Class 19, Xu Luo!"

"Second place, Class 1, Xiang Xun!"

"Third place, Class 1, Wang Xiaoling!"

...

Except for the first place, there were no surprises in the other rankings. They were all students from Class 1.

However, this made Xu Luo, who had pushed all Class 1 students back one rank, even more admired by ordinary students.

Because he came from an ordinary class, because he was also from a humble background.

Having seen the previous battle scenes, everyone knew this first place was well-deserved. No one had any doubts.

On the stage, Zhao Yiming continued speaking.

"The top 50 in the grade will be elite class students. Xu Luo will be transferred to Class 1, Jin Xiaochuan will be moved out of Class 1 to study in Class 19."

Zhao Yiming announced the school's regulations expressionlessly.

"Those who are unwilling can give up the spot!"

Here, he left a trap in his words. If Xu Luo gave up entering the elite class himself, it would be his own choice, and no one could say anything about it.

At this moment, in Class 1, a young man's face turned pale. This was Jin Xiaochuan, the last in Class 1.

This was the cruelty of this world - elimination of the last place. The elite class only wanted the top 50. This time, only Xu Luo squeezed into the top 50. If there were more people, more would be eliminated.

In the ordinary classes, some people were also striving hard to enter the elite class, with their families investing at all costs.
