"Mind your own damn business!" Elder Luo replied.
"Of course it's none of my business, but to think that Liangzhou University actually recruited an N-level student... Haha! What a fall from grace! Hou Chengwu, now you should realize how right your choice was."
Ren Jianghai glanced lazily at Hou Chengwu. Hou Chengwu didn't respond directly. Although he was an SSR, he hadn't yet fully grown and couldn't talk big to someone like Professor Luo.
However, he snorted disdainfully through his nose.
Xiang Beifei didn't say anything, just curiously observing Hou Chengwu's system.
This was his first encounter with an SSR system. The opponent was only in the latter stages of Qi-Controlling, so Xiang Beifei could see exactly what the system was all about.
[Shadow Saint System Overview: Anyone whose shadow you step on will silently be bound to you. For every advancement they make in their cultivation, you can plunder their cultivation for your own use, with the amount depending on the opponent's status (this includes various attributes like strength, speed, etc.)]
[Current shadows bound by your shadow: 1000/1000 (Qi-Controlling stage)]
[Note: Try to bind and plunder people with high talent and rapid progression as your shadow servants. Do not attempt to bind someone whose cultivation level is a whole realm higher than yours.]
...
After reading this system introduction, Xiang Beifei was quite amazed.
The system that allowed S-level Liu Qianrou to plunder backups had already seemed very strange to Xiang Beifei, but this Shadow Saint system was even more terrifying!
Hou Chengwu's [SSR Shadow Saint System] actually plunders other people's cultivation?
That meant he didn't need to cultivate at all; he just needed to bind those with good innate talent. People whose shadows he stepped on were essentially bound to him, turning into his shadow servants.
As long as his shadow servants' cultivation levels increased, so did his!
[Cultivation: 2098/6000 (late Qi-Controlling stage)]
[Strength: 899]
[Speed: 658]
[Intelligence: 127]
...
This SSR system quantified every capability improvement of his shadow servants, including cultivation which could also be measured by data. He could also use these system points he plundered to enter lotteries or buy items in the store.
In the world of systems, nearly everyone is doing system tasks every day, then strengthening themselves through these system tasks. However, those shadow servants whose system talents aren't like Hou Chengwu's, definitely wouldn't expect that while they are getting stronger, their strength is quietly being stolen by the SSR!
The amount of cultivation Hou Chengwu could plunder from a person wasn't fixed, but as long as the data reached 6000 points, he could step into the Meridian Opening stage!
It had only been two months, but Hou Chengwu had already plundered 2000 cultivation points through this powerful SSR system. With this momentum, reaching the Meridian Opening stage in half a year wasn't out of the question!
Xiang Beifei was genuinely surprised by Hou Chengwu's system.
However, he had already figured out who these two people were. This Ren Jianghai must be the teacher from Qingzhou University's admissions office.
Last night, the leaders of Liangzhou University had an unpleasant dispute with people from Qingzhou University, but Ren Jianghai dared to come, claiming it was a farewell visit, but in reality, he planned to provoke Elder Luo one more time with SSR Hou Chengwu before heading back.
Elder Luo was likely so angry mainly because of this history with Ren Jianghai, and now being ridiculed, he had no way to refute it.
Elder Luo's face was grim, and he said sternly, "What students Liangzhou University recruits is none of your business! Just manage your own school's students!"
"Of course, our Qingzhou University doesn't recruit N-level students! We only recruit absolute elites, like SSR Awakener Hou Chengwu."
