When system cheat becomes rampant!

"You're so despicable! I will kill you!"

Zhu Xinjue had thought he had found a kindred spirit in an ally, only to discover that Hou Chengwu harbored ulterior motives. On the surface, Hou Chengwu seemed to despise Xiang Beifei deeply, but in reality, he was targeting Yanzhou University!

Enraged, the fragile boat of friendship capsized in an instant.

On the other side, Yu Hongbo, after stabilizing those SRs, also sensed that something was amiss and saw Hou Chengwu fiercely attacking Zhu Xinjue and Chen Baiwen.

He instantly understood!

"So that's Qingzhou University's game! I thought you wanted to cooperate with us, Yanzhou University, but it turns out you were luring us into a trap!"

Yu Hongbo was furious.

They had joined forces to look for Xiang Beifei. Although they hadn't found Beifei, they discovered their own people trapped by the floodwaters, and then Hou Chengwu launched a surprise attack on Zhu Xinjue and Chen Baiwen — it was clear, even to the dimmest of minds, that Qingzhou University was up to no good!

The people from Qingzhou University had feigned an alliance to fight against Liangzhou University. They formed a pact with Yanzhou University, but they secretly intended to deal with none other than Yanzhou University itself!

Yu Hongbo pondered over this carefully, becoming increasingly certain.

Undoubtedly, the underground abyss was a trap Qingzhou University had set in advance!

This year, Liangzhou University had Xiang Beifei, which put a significant strain on the other universities. Qingzhou University obviously couldn't outperform Liangzhou University, so they decided to secure second place before anything else!

However, to hold onto second place, they still had to get past Yanzhou University, whose strength was no less than their own. Qingzhou University wasn't even assured of a victory over them!

Hou Chengwu from Qingzhou University and He Qiutong must have colluded long ago, under the guise of cooperating to confront Xiang Beifei, luring Yanzhou University into this place to deal with them first!

That is to say, Hou Chengwu's target was not Xiang Beifei from the start, but Yanzhou University! This explained why Hou Chengwu suddenly started attacking them!

Yes! It must be so!

"Everyone be careful, there may be other traps set by Qingzhou University within these floodwaters!" Yu Hongbo warned his team!

This outer wilderness was officially the responsibility of Qingzhou to defend, meaning students from Qingzhou University must have trained here in the past. They would be quite familiar with this area, so setting up traps in advance was not out of the question!

Now that the floodwaters had suddenly risen, who knows if it would be followed by flames, or if cliffs and rocks would crumble and bury them alive!

As Yu Hongbo was thinking this, boom! There was a loud noise in the distance. The floods seemed increasingly fierce, violently striking the cliffs, breaking the rocks from above, and sending them tumbling down.

Rockfall!

It was indeed a trap!

Seeing the falling rocks, Yu Hongbo grew even more convinced of his deduction!

He shouted angrily at the people from Qingzhou University, "If you think we're so easy to deal with, you are far too naive!"

Whoosh!

Yu Hongbo charged out as a huge boulder of ten square meters came smashing towards him. He emanated a powerful Spiritual Power, which rippled upon the rock, making the hard stone as malleable as dough and distorted it into a long, thin rock, as if he had stretched the boulder into a noodle!

Bang!

Yu Hongbo kicked at the stone strip, shattering the rock!

Yu Hongbo had awakened the [SSR-level Shape-shifting System], a particularly special system. Anything with form and substance he laid eyes on could make him stronger.

For example, a water cup, a piece of paper, a leaf, a tree, a clump of dirt... there are no two items with exactly the same shape in this world, and no matter how much they are replicated, there will always be slight differences in shape. These differences are invisible to the naked eye, but magnified several hundred times, the shapes will differ.

Therefore, every object Yu Hongbo sees daily can add to his system value.

He also has an extremely powerful ability. Not only can he perceive the shape of objects, he can also change their shape.

This means he can force any object to change its shape, including rocks thrown at him or mountains bearing down on him. Upon contact with him, they would be changed in shape. For example, he could create a passageway through a mountain that perfectly fits his body, passing through unscathed!

Even a Spiritual Power attack would be transformed, rendered harmless to himself!

Boom! Boom!

Countless rocks kept tumbling down, rolling in the floodwaters, creating massive sprays and deafening noise, fueling Yu Hongbo's growing ire.

"He Qiutong! What a cunning plan!"

Yu Hongbo glared at He Qiutong, seething with anger.

Yanzhou University and Qingzhou University were already rivals. Last year, they were evenly matched, and this year, both aimed to push the other down.

Their relationship was extremely fragile even during this temporary cooperation, and after Hou Chengwu's action, any semblance of trust was shattered completely.

"A plan?" Discover hidden tales at empire

He Qiutong, standing not far away, was stunned by Yu Hongbo's outburst, confused about the situation.

Both being SSRs of Qingzhou University, she knew about Hou Chengwu's deeds and thought he had come for Xiang Beifei seeking revenge. She only intended to assist them in pressuring Beifei to use the Forfeit Talisman and withdraw from the competition.
