“Alright….. that’s all for today’s class. If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to discuss it with each other, or come find me.”
Teacher Zhang Xuefeng’s lips were slightly purple. He took a deep breath, raised a hand to cover his heart, and announced the end of class.
Facing this pair of Peerless Twin Prodigies, he felt incredibly weary, sweat pouring down his back. The old ailment he’d picked up in his youth was acting up again.
As for Lin Jiaxin and the other one….. when it came to praising them, he couldn’t be bothered to keep it up. But when it came to scolding them, he didn’t want to either. Teachers of the older generation didn’t like to discourage students.
So he might as well end class, go grab a chocolate ice cream bar, and rest to calm his nerves…..
Teacher Zhang picked up his teacup and slowly left through the front door. Seeing this, the others also filed out of the classroom one after another.
They had all gained something. The cultivation questions they’d once had were now basically answered, and they wanted to go back and start practicing.
Big genius or little genius, all geniuses had their own pride. They absolutely refused to watch that pair of ‘Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix’ ride on everyone’s heads and take a dump!
“Master! Master! Wait for me!”
Young Phoenix Brother Wang Haozhe stuck close behind Lin Jiaxin, refusing to let go. Wherever Lin Jiaxin went, he followed, like an eternal companion that had been fed a mountain of bones.
“Master, please, you have to take me in!”
Lin Jiaxin finally grew impatient. She stopped, turned around, and glared at him.
“Who’s your master…. I told you to stop following me!”
“Sister Xin! Sister Xin! Please take your little brother in! I want to become a powerhouse like you too!”
Wang Haozhe changed his form of address in a flash. He had already become Lin Jiaxin’s loyal follower.
Especially when he thought of that line:
‘When you stop asking me that question’
It perfectly showcased that intangible Master aura! So showing off didn’t require belittling one to praise another—there was an even simpler way?!
“No can do. No disciples, no carrying girls. I like solo queue, thanks.”
Lin Jiaxin waved her hand coldly, throwing out a triple-rejection combo.
Was she joking?
In this world, only your Sister Xin could flex this hard, okay? If she taught him, how would your Sister Xin still stand out?
“Sister Xin…. I’m serious…..”
“So am I. Stop following me. I need to go to the restroom. If you still want to keep following, go ahead—if you’ve got the guts.”
Lin Jiaxin let out a ‘tsk’ and darted away, speechless. Like a sticky dog-skin plaster, after being completely defeated twice, he’d stuck right onto her. This kind, stuck to a shoe sole, was the hardest to pry off.

“Fellow students, don’t pass by and miss out! Universe E-Sports is newly opened—recharge 100 and get 300 free! Members can also enter the League of Legends and Valorant tournaments!”
By the cafeteria, a few young students in anime cosplay outfits were hopping around holding banners, loudly promoting. Quite a few onlookers had gathered around.
Lin Jiaxin grew curious and squeezed in to check out the excitement.
Several girls, dressed up flamboyantly, were performing otaku dances in the open space. Who knew what they were being paid—every one of them was full of enthusiasm, each one prettier than the last.
An internet cafe actually hiring students to promote its opening? This owner was pretty clever.
Lin Jiaxin nodded approvingly but quickly lost interest and planned to go eat.
Just as she turned around, though, she heard the lead girl announce:
“The tournament winner gets a direct spot in the Southwest City Championship and a chance to compete against champion pro teams!”
City Championship? Champion team?
Lin Jiaxin stopped in her tracks, stroked her chin, eyes narrowed slightly.
So that meant this would be a tournament with lots of people?
If…. she stepped on the heads of the champion pro team and took the title in front of over 1,000 live spectators and tens of thousands of online viewers…..
Wouldn’t that mean she no longer needed to rack her brains trying to show off? She could leap straight to the top and stockpile all the Manifestation True Qi needed to break through to Second-Rank True Master?
Lin Jiaxin refused to believe it was impossible.
At the freshman performance last time, it was understandable that those students didn’t appreciate art. After all, they were just a bunch of ordinary people. They really couldn’t measure up to Lin Jiaxin’s aesthetic taste.
She could totally understand that about these mortals.
But this time was completely different. E-sports didn’t talk about aesthetics, only strength. The ranking system was strict, with clearly defined tiers.
Skill lived and died with one’s parents. It didn’t flatter men, didn’t flatter women, and didn’t even flatter the rich. It purely flattered the strong!
Beat hundreds of thousands of people into submission with pure skill. Then…. go into seclusion and cultivate straight up to Second-Rank True Master in one breath!
Become the tenth person at Southwest United University to reach Second-Rank before the first semester of freshman year even ended—the strongest of the season!
A name carved in history! Lin Jiaxin wasn’t just thinking casually. She had genuinely thought it through.
Even though she hadn’t played games much in this life….. in her previous life, she was a Season 2 living fossil of League, and a launch-day old fogey of Valorant. Her ranks on both sides had only been a pitiful Diamond IV and Diamond…..
But don’t forget—in her previous life, Lin Jiaxin had been just an ordinary man. From his character model to his bank account, an ordinary guy in every way. In these two games’ ‘Girls Leave IDs, Men Self-Strengthen’ environment, he’d climbed step by step to Double Diamond through solo queue alone!
Invincible Double Diamond! Only missing a partner!
With that strength as a foundation….. combined with this life’s looks that could make anyone stare, dazed and captivated….. Just make her voice a little cuter.
Wouldn’t finding a few invincible carries to boost her be a breeze?
Lin Jiaxin was arrogant, but most of the time she was quite realistic. She really didn’t believe her Diamond-level skill could demolish pro players.
Since she’d truly uninstalled QQ and become a girl, with looks that high, wouldn’t it be a total waste not to use them?
However….. despite deciding she would enter the competition, Lin Jiaxin decided to do some investigating first. She wanted to see how the League and Valorant player level in this life compared to her previous life.
With that thought, Lin Jiaxin stopped hesitating. She pushed through the crowd and grabbed a student-exclusive discount card for fifty yuan of internet credit.
If she wanted to play games, her old office laptop definitely couldn’t run them. She’d have to go to an internet cafe, and conveniently, they had coupons here. Free stuff was free stuff!

After lunch, taking advantage of having no afternoon classes, Lin Jiaxin grabbed her expensively DIY’d custom keyboard and her premium tri-mode wireless mouse. Following the address on the card, she arrived at this newly opened Universe E-Sports.
Don’t ask why she’d pair such good keyboard and mouse with an office laptop. It was purely because she’d gotten used to being a beast-of-burden office worker in her previous life. She’d also gotten used to good keyboards and good mice…..
“Welcome to Universe E-Sports! Are you a new customer or a returning one?”
The moment she pushed open the door, a flock of chattering girls surrounded Lin Jiaxin. Every one of them chirped nonstop, all wanting Lin Jiaxin to open memberships and cards with them.
If this were her previous life, Lin Jiaxin might have felt secretly pleased. Because never had so many members of the opposite sex been this enthusiastic toward him.
But…. in this life, she was a girl too. Lin Jiaxin felt nothing at all, and even found it a bit noisy.
She casually glanced at the nearest female attendant. Mm, her legs were long, but not as straight as hers.
Then she glanced at the one next to her….. her waist was slim too, but not as well-defined as hers. She had an invincible V-line!
As for looks….. Lin Jiaxin’s gaze quickly swept across those faces, then she shook her head inwardly. Not to brag…. she genuinely hadn’t met anyone yet whose looks could compare to hers!
“Hmph…..”
Lin Jiaxin’s smug mood had just surfaced when the whole of her seemed to realize something and suddenly froze in place.
Wait…. damn it! What the hell had she been comparing just now…..?
Holy cow, why had she suddenly and inexplicably started engaging in female rivalry!?
