Universal Ascension: Starting with SSS-Level Talent

Chapter 56: No Killing Among Senior and Junior Brothers

The rookies saw the 67 points and couldn’t help but feel envious.

A monthly salary of 67,000.

Indeed, the Dungeon First Division was great, it seemed like he had achieved accomplishments in all the dungeons he could fight, and not just one excellent achievement in hard mode.

Seeing his token, Li Chengfeng couldn’t help but chuckle:

“With just this… you want me to pour you tea?”

He released his own sect token, and casually tossed it onto the ground.

Everyone looked down at the token on the ground.

The side facing up had the three large characters “Xiaoyao Sect,” and in the lower right corner, there were three small characters—

Honor Division.

Everyone was shocked.

The Honor Division was the most powerful and elite department of the Xiaoyao Sect.

Only those with outstanding achievements could join the Honor Division.

Pan Jiang gulped in surprise.

He slowly reached out to flip the token, wanting to see the other side, to confirm if it indeed bore Li Chengfeng’s name.

When the token was flipped, the writing was clear:

Li Chengfeng—97 points.

At level 14, he was a full 30 points higher than Pan Jiang, who was level 17.

Pan Jiang trembled all over and sat down on the ground with a thud.

Li Chengfeng, with a stern face, asked:

“Do you still want me to pour you tea?”

An Honor Division senior brother.

Pan Jiang dared not recall what he had just done and said to an Honor Division senior brother.

He quickly knelt down and said:

“Senior Brother Li, I dare not, I dare not! I didn’t know you were from the Honor Division. It was my mistake for not recognizing you. Please, Senior Brother Li, forgive me.”

While begging for forgiveness, he picked up Li Chengfeng’s token, and repeatedly wiped it clean on his clothes, making sure both sides were spotless, then offered it with both hands.

Li Chengfeng was slightly taken aback.

He hadn’t expected the identity token to have such a significant effect, actually scaring Pan Jiang into kneeling and begging for forgiveness.

Could it be that a higher rank really suppresses others?

What he didn’t know was that in the Xiaoyao Sect, even a single point higher in status could be overwhelming.

Few dared to provoke senior brothers or sisters with higher status, otherwise, if the seniors made things difficult, life would be unbearable.

The other two veterans who had just been scolding also hurriedly knelt down:

“We didn’t know you were a senior brother. We unintentionally offended you earlier. Please forgive us, Senior Brother Li.”

“It’s our fault, we shouldn’t have spoken out of turn.”

Li Chengfeng’s expression remained stern:

“What should be done for speaking out of turn?”

The two immediately began slapping their own faces, pleading for Li Chengfeng’s forgiveness.

“Get lost!”

Li Chengfeng shouted, driving the two away.

Then he turned to Pan Jiang:

“You arranged a good defensive position for me, huh? How about you try that spot in the next wave?”

Pan Jiang realized that would be a death sentence for him.

First, dying was very unpleasant and painful.

Second, if he died, he wouldn’t be able to earn DKP, and thus wouldn’t get any equipment.

Almost crying, he bowed to Li Chengfeng:

“Senior Brother Li, please spare me. My martial skills are not even a tenth of yours. How could I possibly hold that position?”

Pan Jiang had repeatedly gone against Li Chengfeng, and had said many unpleasant things.

How could Li Chengfeng easily forgive him?

Taking the token, he said:

“I haven’t done anything to you, so what’s this about sparing you? You set up the good position, now go hold it yourself! As you said, not a single step back. If you dare to retreat even half a step, you’ll be a deserter. You know the consequences for deserters!”

This arrangement was immensely satisfying.

The rookie junior brothers and sisters had long been displeased with Pan Jiang.

In the second round of battle, Pan Jiang and the others hadn’t even lifted a finger.

Their DKP was all zero.

Li Chengfeng alone took 600 DKP.

After a brief rest, the third wave of orcs attacked.

Pan Jiang, at the forefront, bore the brunt of the assault.

After a bitter struggle, he managed to kill dozens of orcs.

But he ended up covered in wounds, barely clinging to life.

In the end, he was carried back by the veterans.

Li Chengfeng stood on high ground, effortlessly pulling the trigger.

Everyone worked together, and they successfully defended the third wave.

Pan Jiang’s injuries were severe; both his arms were crippled and beyond saving.

He would rather die and lose a year of his life than endure such torment, begging for death:

“Senior Brother Li, give me a quick end. I’ll revive after you finish the fight.”

Li Chengfeng firmly refused:

“No, how can we kill each other as fellow disciples? We can’t kill you; it would shorten your lifespan. Just stay put, and once we finish, we’ll take you to the dungeon entrance for healing.”

Pan Jiang was on the verge of tears.

In the subsequent rounds, he was dragged to a safe place to hide.

“Enjoying” the torment of his injuries, unable to live or die.

By the end of the fourth round, Li Chengfeng had been pulling the trigger a bit too aggressively.

His internal energy was running low.

He came to the corner and sought Pan Jiang to absorb some energy.

Pan Jiang was utterly frustrated: Do you take me for a living energy reservoir?

“Senior Brother Li, I beg you, give me a quick end!”

“It’s really not possible. Our sect has a rule: fellow disciples cannot kill each other.”

This time, Pan Jiang truly cried.

It was the first time in his life he experienced the feeling of being better off dead!

And it lasted for several hours.

Not allowing him to die was one thing, but couldn’t they at least give him some anesthetic?

Who could endure such torment?

However, since Li Chengfeng had already spoken, no one dared to give him any anesthetic.

This was probably the consequence of offending a senior brother.

Therefore, everyone in the Xiaoyao Sect held their senior brothers and sisters in high regard.

A few hours later, the entire dungeon was successfully completed.

【Ding! Secret Realm Challenge Successful, Achievement Unlocked.】

【Level 10 Ten-Man Secret Realm – Luqiao Siege Defense Battle – Normal Mode – 158 Points】

The entire dungeon dropped 10 pieces of equipment and two crystal stones.

Among them were two good-quality pieces of equipment, including one weapon.

The rest were of ordinary quality.

Li Chengfeng’s DKP: 1142 points.

The second-place veteran had only 420 DKP.

After being severely injured, Pan Jiang hadn’t participated in any further battles, leaving him with 146 DKP, ranking last.

With the dungeon completed, it was time to distribute the loot.

According to the rules, the best items were auctioned off first.
