Chapter 190 - 130: Nationwide Extraordinary

Chapter 190: Chapter 130: Nationwide Extraordinary

"The spaces where the Source Land and Earth merge are becoming more and more common. It shouldn’t be long before Earth experiences a full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery."

"My Biological Level has been stuck for so long. I hope I can evolve during this Spiritual Energy Recovery."

"If a full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery suddenly happens, who knows what Earth will become. Maybe everyone will become Extraordinary."

"I heard an archeology expert say that Earth might have gone through a Spiritual Energy Recovery a few hundred years ago, but for some reason, it later entered an age of decline."

"You think if Earth really does have a full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery, will some old monsters born during the last one pop out?"

"..."

Outside the conference hall.

Gu Qing moved a little closer, calming his mind and focusing his attention. He perked up his ears, concentrating on the faint murmurs coming from the conference hall, afraid of missing a single word.

’Spiritual Energy Recovery... everyone becoming Extraordinary... Is it all happening so suddenly?’

’The world is about to undergo a massive change.’

’The social order is about to be completely reshuffled.’

’No.’

’It probably can’t be reshuffled.’

Right now, power in society is mostly in the hands of Extraordinary Beings.

And these pioneers who embraced Extraordinary Power before the full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery will only grow stronger when it arrives.

Societal power will remain firmly in their grasp.

In fact, they might even grip it more tightly.

When Earth undergoes a full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery, a vast amount of Extraordinary Resources will surely emerge.

And the pioneers who already possess great power will inevitably have an advantage over ordinary people when it comes to collecting or competing for these ownerless Extraordinary Resources.

To put it bluntly, only the strong are worthy of carving up the cake. The weak can only hope to get lucky and pick up the scraps.

And this is what’s known as class stratification.

The strong monopolize resources, growing ever stronger, while the weak have almost no chance to get ahead.

’As for me, with my label cheat... ’

’Two words: Take all!’

’I can take the ownerless Extraordinary Resources, and I can also take on the so-called experts who compete with me for them.’

’These so-called experts are all Extraordinary Resources for me to claim.’

’They devour Extraordinary Resources to get stronger, and the labels above their heads will become stronger as well. Then, I can burst even stronger Attributes from their labels.’

’In short, in this coming full-scale Spiritual Energy Recovery, I, with my label cheat, am destined to be the biggest winner. No one else comes close.’

Just as Gu Qing was completely lost in these thoughts,

Zhao Chuan, the instructor of the Awakened Squad, appeared from around a corner in the hallway ahead and walked quickly toward him.

"Everyone’s here. Let’s go. I’ll take you inside to sign in."

Zhao Chuan said this as he stopped in front of the group.

As he spoke, he did his best to suppress the awkwardness in his heart, trying to make his tone sound casual and normal.

He couldn’t help it. In the exchange with Gu Qing a few hours ago, he had lost in a truly humiliating fashion.

This made him feel particularly ashamed and embarrassed when facing Gu Qing and the others.

Unlike him, Gu Qing’s group had long since forgotten about the sparring match.

Right now, their minds were completely occupied with the upcoming meeting, filled with curiosity about its contents.

At the same time, they were also curious about the experts who would be attending.

They were all newcomers to the Extraordinary World, so everything and everyone related to the Extraordinary was novel to them. They were eager to broaden their horizons and gain some experience.

’All available Extraordinary Awakened from the Night Court have to attend this meeting. I wonder if Ningyu will be here too?’

Gu Qing suddenly thought of this, and his heart stirred.

Although the probability of Bai Ningyu attending this meeting was low, he still held a sliver of hope, wishing he would see her in the conference hall.

Over the past few days, too many questions had piled up in his heart, and he wanted to ask Bai Ningyu about them face-to-face.

「Soon.」

Gu Qing followed Zhao Chuan into the conference hall.

The hall was quite empty.

Most people hadn’t arrived yet.

But that was normal. The leaders and the old-timers always liked to arrive right on time.

Only the newcomers were called in early to fill the seats.

After signing in on a machine at the entrance,

Gu Qing and his group headed straight for the back rows.

The front rows were reserved for important leaders.

Newcomers to the Night Court like them could only sit in the back and be invisible, non-existent figures.

On the way to the back row,

Gu Qing scanned the dozen or so scattered people in the hall.

They were all strangers.

He didn’t see any familiar faces.

’She’s not here?’

Gu Qing calmly scanned every face, thinking to himself, ’I’m probably just too early. Maybe Ningyu will arrive in a little while.’

Without thinking too much about it, he quickly walked to a seat in the back row and sat down.

Xia Shuran silently sat down beside him, staying very close.

Liu Yue and Wu Jiahao, in turn, sat down next to Xia Shuran and idly played on their phones.

Gu Qing didn’t kill time on his phone. Instead, he raised his head and looked toward the entrance of the hall.

His gaze fell on the people signing in and entering one after another.

From afar, he sized up their faces and their labels.

[Playboy]

[Wizard]

[Monster Hunter]

[Toy Boy]

[Poisonous Insect Master]

[...]

As Gu Qing saw more and more labels,

the conference hall gradually filled until it was about two-thirds full.

But even then, the person he longed to see, Bai Ningyu, still hadn’t appeared.

He figured Bai Ningyu probably wasn’t coming.

He wasn’t too disappointed by this.

After all, he knew perfectly well that the chances of Bai Ningyu attending the meeting were very slim.
