High-Level Martial Era
Chapter 110: 105: Power of One (Seeking Monthly Votes)

"Hai Feng, help me with my bag," Li Yuan called out, slipping off his backpack to pass it to Dong Haifeng.

After all, he was most familiar with Gu Qianghan and Dong Haifeng.

The others? Although they called him 'senior brother,' Li Yuan didn't take it seriously.

"Senior brother, leave it to me, I'm the best at this," said An Nong, the tall and skinny boy standing alongside, as he caught the backpack from Li Yuan's hand and patted his chest, "I will definitely hold on to it well."

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, giving An Nong a curious look.

The kid sure knew how to curry favor!

"Alright, An Nong, thanks a lot," Li Yuan said with a smile, not rejecting the offer.

In the short time from the terminal to Xuanwu Tower, Li Yuan had already made up his mind.

The students who were able to enroll in Kunlun Martial University might not have talents that matched his own, but they were all top choices, and at the very least, they all had the potential to become Prime Warriors in the future.

What's most important is that this group of people were all from Jiang City!

In ancient times, this meant they were naturally 'fellow villagers', thereby naturally having a foundation of trust among each other.

Therefore, now that Gu Qianghan had already laid some groundwork for him, if he could truly rally this group of people together, unite them, and truly establish prestige and influence among them, it might be of great use in the future.

So-called social networks and relationships are all built up step by step.

His uncle, Li Changzhou, had taught Li Yuan from a young age not to focus only on the present.

For instance, learning a few foreign languages, understanding an industry, acquiring additional certifications, and making more friends among classmates...might seem useless at the moment, even mostly useless, but at some critical moment in the future, you might be able to use one or two of these skills to great effect.

In a word.

Gathering more resources, it's never a mistake.

"Senior brother?"

"Are we electing the senior brother now?"

"Don't we wait until the Combat Assessment in July to choose the new senior brother?"

"Is this Li Yuan really that amazing?" Many freshmen were shocked upon hearing An Nong's address.

The title of senior brother is clearly recognized for each class and each institute by the school.

It's based on strength, and moreover, one must be willing, with competitions every half year.

There are responsibilities, but also benefits.

"What do you guys know?" An Nong, holding the large bag, laughed coldly and said loudly, "Everyone says Yang Hong is the senior brother for the freshmen of the Third Institute, and Wu Luo will be the senior brother for the Seventh Institute... But do all the people in those two institutes truly acknowledge them?"

The people in the venue looked at each other.

At this moment, there were mostly students from the Third and Seventh Institutes in the venue.

Truly acknowledging Wu Luo and Yang Hong? Forget about it!

Many freshmen truly had never met Wu Luo and Yang Hong, so how could they recognize them?

"So you guys from the Sixth Institute genuinely recognize this Li Yuan?" someone finally couldn't help but shout.

"Of course, we do."

"Our senior brother of the Sixth Institute is way stronger than those two, just you wait and see," An Nong, waiting for this cue, immediately shouted towards Gu Qianghan and the others, "Brothers and sisters, show them the unity of our Sixth Institute, call out to senior brother."

"Senior brother!" Over thirty people, seemingly prepared, shouted in unison towards Li Yuan, their voices echoing throughout the entire venue.

Li Yuan was taken aback and looked at An Nong again.

The kid was a pro!

Just one glance, and you could tell he was great at creating 'hype,' 'laying the groundwork,' and 'building anticipation,' perfect for public relations work.

If he learned to write cliffhangers, he could try writing serialized novels online, and he'd likely do well.

"Are they really calling him that?"

"Do so many people acknowledge him?"

"This Li Yuan, is he really that incredible?" The unified shouting from tens of people instantly subdued the six to seven hundred freshmen in the venue.

Many students who were originally skeptical started to become doubtful.

Is this Li Yuan really that incredible?

In fact, there were also many students from the Sixth Institute in the venue who came from other provinces and didn't know Li Yuan, but they didn't dare to speak out in the face of such a situation.

People have the instinct to conform and fit in, and nobody wanted to be labeled as a 'traitor of the Sixth Institute.'

For a moment, everyone in the venue couldn't help but turn their eyes toward Li Yuan, waiting to see his performance.

They wanted to see how incredible he could really be.

Could he truly reverse a deficit of over seven hundred points with his own strength?

"Senior brother, you can do it!"

"Beat the Third Institute, take the top spot." An Nong, with the bag slung over one shoulder and waving his fist with the other hand, appeared extremely excited.

The atmosphere was perfectly charged up.

Li Yuan's expression showed a trace of oddity as he murmured to himself, "If this act fails, it's game over, will probably get ridiculed for years."

To be the big brother, it's crucial to hold your ground in big moments.

"Well, it's okay."

"It's only a seven hundred point gap, not seven thousand. Otherwise, it really would be a headache," Li Yuan muttered to himself, and sat straight down into the public virtual network pod.

The pod door closed.

Li Yuan's eyes tightly shut, his consciousness connected, already entering the virtual network.

Whoosh!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Everyone subconsciously looked up, eyes fixed on the two giant screens with the leaderboards on either side.

In reality, every student could participate in the 'Kunlun Nine Mountains' virtual battles from their own villa.

They could also see the real-time updates of the rankings.

But however realistic the network is, what could be more exciting than being there in person?

Hence, when the enrollment competition of the Eighth Institute approached closure, so many people came to the east hall of Xuanwu Tower.

Primarily students from the Third and Seventh Institutes, they were actually prepared to celebrate.

...

All freshmen from each institute have various chat groups.

Therefore, in a very short time, many of the freshmen in the Xuanwu Tower were able to spread the news to their respective institute groups.

"Who is Li Yuan?"

"Does anyone know?"

"The Sixth Institute is boasting that Li Yuan alone can chop down eight hundred points, how arrogant."

"Never heard of him!"

"Eight hundred points? Aren't those idiots from the Sixth Institute saying that Li Yuan can grab a thousand points?"
