"No wonder the Iron Blood Warband forfeited outright! What the hell is there to fight for? The man has already shattered the ceiling, and you’re still trying to see who can jump higher? This isn’t even a contest on the same dimension anymore! That ’Iron Fanatic’ boss’s decision to forfeit, while blunt... I respect the hell out of it!"
However, this was only the beginning.
Just as everyone was still reeling from the miracle of an ’S+ evaluation on a Nightmare-level mission’...
Another insider, claiming to be a ’temporary worker in the Fearless Warband’s logistics department,’ posted a bombshell revelation—one even more shocking and utterly worldview-shattering than the last.
[BOMBSHELL! The inside scoop on the Nightmare-level mission! You think the four-man squad was badass? NO! The truth is...]
"I know you’re all hyping up how badass Dragon Jade’s four-person squad is, but I’m here to tell you a much harsher truth."
"First, why did the Iron Blood Warband forfeit? Because they failed their Nightmare-level mission. Even though there were no casualties, they didn’t complete the objective. That means they had no way of beating the Fearless Warband, so there was no point in competing any further."
"Second, and this is the most important part! The truth about the Fearless Warband’s mission! You think it was the three powerhouses—Dragon Jade, Nissan, and Ning Jing—who carried the team? Wrong! You’re dead wrong!"
"According to the core contribution distribution data—which I risked my life to copy from the Mission Settlement Center—during the entire Nightmare-level mission, Qin Feng single-handedly obliterated the final boss, a Tier Six Slaanesh Demon! Because of this, out of the mission’s total of 200,000 Contribution Points, he was awarded... 150,000!"
"Three-quarters of the Contribution Points! All you veterans who regularly team up for missions should know better than me what that kind of DPS share means!"
This post detonated across the entire forum.
It instantly blew all the previous shock and discussion to smithereens!
"Holy shit... Is this for real?!"
"It’s fake, right?! This has to be fake! Qin Feng single-handedly obliterated a Tier Six Slaanesh Demon?! That’s a fucking million times more ridiculous than getting an S+ on a Nightmare-level mission!"
"Qin Beast... He’s... he’s that powerful?!"
"Whoa, hold on a minute, let me get this straight... None of this adds up! How long has it been since Qin Feng advanced to the Fifth Level? Thirty years at most, right? How could he possibly get that strong in just thirty years? Obliterating a Tier Six Slaanesh Demon?! Forget him—even the top-tier powerhouses like Dragon Jade, Nissan, and Ning Jing, who have reached the ’minor limit’ of 7,200 life force, couldn’t pull that off!"
"So... what you’re saying, OP, is that... Qin Beast didn’t just spend thirty years raising his life force index from 3,600 to the ’minor limit’ of 7,200. On top of that, he’s already considered to have practically invincible Combat Power at that level? He’s strong enough to tank the bizarre Mental Power attacks from a Tier Six Slaanesh Demon and just beat it to death? And meanwhile, the three famous pillars of our Fearless Warband’s Fifth Level Division—Dragon Jade, Nissan, and Ning Jing—were just... slacking on the sidelines the entire time?"
"Holy fuck! Now that you’ve summarized it, I believe it even less! This is... even the trashiest, most mindless power-fantasy novels from the Nest Capital wouldn’t dare to write a protagonist this over-the-top! The author would get flamed by the readers into oblivion!"
Amidst a tide of doubt and disbelief, a hardcore analyst with the ID ’Imperial Data Emperor’ posted a data comparison chart that was appallingly detailed.
"Everyone, hold your fire. I just reviewed all the public data reports published by the Imperial Academy of Sciences on the ’Top-grade Acupoint Opening Technique’ and ’Top-grade Yuanqiao Technique.’ I cross-referenced this with all of Qin Feng’s public records since his enrollment and came to a conclusion... that even I can barely believe."
"Official Imperial statistics show that for a genius cultivating a ’Top-grade Acupoint Opening Technique,’ the average time required to open their acupoints is one hundred years. Qin Feng, however, only took forty."
"Official Imperial statistics show that for a genius cultivating a ’Top-grade Yuanqiao Technique,’ the average time required to fuse their acupoints is two hundred years. Qin Feng, however, only took thirty."
"For comparison, geniuses cultivating the tier-down ’Upper-grade Acupoint Opening Technique’ and ’Upper-grade Yuanqiao Technique’ take an average of thirty years to open their acupoints and an average of thirty years to fuse them."
"In other words... while using the most elite, most difficult, and most time-consuming Cultivation Technique in the entire Cosmos, Qin Feng achieved a cultivation speed nearly identical to that of geniuses using lower-grade techniques!"
The moment this data chart appeared, the entire forum fell silent.
Everyone was shocked into speechlessness by this set of cold, objective, yet utterly absurd data.
"I... I don’t get it... So, is Qin Feng about to graduate? In another eighty or a hundred years, we’ll see someone who mastered a Top-grade Cultivation Technique walk out of Canaan? Is... is this a joke?"
"Damn... what more can I say? I’m literally on my knees reading the forum right now."
"I’m done talking! I’ve already sent a friend request to Qin Feng! When I graduate, this’ll be my ultimate bragging right! Please carry me, my lord! Please beat me up, my lord! Everyone, just wait for my good news!"
"Holy fuck! I sent one too! Same here! My lord, please notice me!"
"Beat me up +1!"
"Beat me up +9001! I’ve already figured out my epitaph. It’ll read: ’Defeated by a single punch from Qin Beast. A loss with no regrets’!"
