Chapter 7: Number One in the Newcomer Rankings

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Congratulations to student Peter for successfully challenging the Newcomer Combat Power Rankings.”

“You have ranked first and obtained a reward of 5,000 points.”

Peter saw that the 5,000 points went directly to his account.

He was in a great mood!

However, just as Peter was about to leave the testing machine.

The holographic interface presented another reward.

This time, it was because Peter’s challenge results had broken the historical records of the Newcomer Rankings in the Genetics College.

“Congratulations to student Peter for breaking the newcomer power record. You have received 2,000 points.”

“Congratulations to student Peter for breaking the newcomer speed record. You have received 2,000 points.”

“Congratulations to student Peter for breaking the newcomer neurological response quotient record. You have received 2,000 points.”

Another 6,000 points were transferred to his account.

Together with the reward of 5,000 points for ranking first in the Newcomer Rankings…

Peter’s current points balance had reached…

A total of 11,018 points!

According to Peter’s current appetite…

These points were enough for him to use for a year.

Subsequently, the intelligent testing machine updated the Newcomer Combat Power Rankings.

Along with that, the machine also sent out the news that Peter was ranked first.

Beep beep beep!

At this moment, the smart wristbands of the students who were training in the sports field beeped at the same time.

One of the students stopped what he was doing and checked the message sent by the smart wristband.

The student’s eyes almost popped out shortly after seeing the message.

“Oh my god! Look, the Newcomer Rankings have been updated!”

The others reacted quickly and immediately checked their smart wristbands.

“Eric, who was placed first in the rankings, has been replaced!”

“Now, the first place is occupied by a person named Peter. Why is this name so familiar? I can’t remember it at this moment.”

“What kind of memory do you have! It’s the same Peter that we just saw.”

“Are they the same person? I don’t believe it! There are many people called Peter…”

“That’s an issue. If it’s really that Peter, he should still be in the training room right now. Wouldn’t it be clear if we went to see him?”

As time passed, more and more students in the Genetic College saw the update on the Newcomer Rankings.

However, what shocked them the most was Peter’s data from when he had challenged the Newcomer Rankings.

When they selected the person in first place, they could see Peter’s data.

Power: 7,254kg…

Speed: 20.7m/s…

Neurological Reaction Quotient: Five Stars…

Newcomer Ranking Combat Power Value: 19,324!

“Oh my god! He reached a power of 7,254kg! Am I seeing things?”

“Is this Peter guy still human…”

“I’ve been in this school for more than a year, and my genes have been enhanced twice. However, my power is only 2,250kg…”

“Hurry up and report to the teacher that a mutant creature has infiltrated the genetics course!”

“What mutated creature… Even mutated creatures don’t have such terrifying power.”

Just as the students were discussing…

At this moment, a female student from the Genetics College was conducting a genetic experiment with her teacher.

Seeing the notification from the smart wristband on her wrist, she simply used a voice message to activate the virtual image.

The interface of the Newcomer Combat Power Rankings was projected in midair.

“Oh? The Newcomer Combat Power Rankings have been updated!”

The female student immediately saw the person ranked first on the Combat Power Rankings.

“Peter? I remember that the original number one was called Eric. Let’s look at this newcomer’s challenge data.”

After selecting Peter, who was ranked first, the interface changed instantly.

Peter’s data from challenging the Newcomer Combat Power Rankings appeared.

“Ah!”

The female student cried out from excessive shock after seeing Peter’s power value.

This shocked the teacher, who was still doing experiments.

“What are you doing!”

After the teacher was frightened by the female student, the reagent in her hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

“Teacher, look at the Newcomer Rankings…”

“Hm?”

The laboratory teacher was wearing an even more advanced intelligent device. She usually turned off the notifications.

The female student also knew this and simply showed the virtual interface to the laboratory teacher.

“A power value of 7,254kg?”

The laboratory teacher looked incredulous when she saw Peter’s power value.

“No, there must be something wrong with the Newcomer Rankings. How can a newcomer have such a high power value…”

“Heh! If this is true… Eric, who was ranked first, will go crazy.”

As for Peter’s speed and neurological response quotient, the laboratory teacher simply ignored them.

Since there was a problem with his power value, the other two data values might have the same issue.

Then, she immediately used her smart device to contact the maintenance staff of the college.

Just as the teacher was reporting the problem…

On a beach more than 300 kilometers away from New York Base City, a mecha army had just repelled an attack from mutated sea monsters.

Although they managed to withstand the first wave of attacks from the mutated sea monsters, the mecha army suffered heavy losses.

A total of 35 Mecha Warriors had died because of this battle.

After a rare rest, the surviving Mecha Warriors saw the Genetic Warriors behind them.

This activated the daily taunts.

“Sigh! The cleaners are so comfortable, hiding behind us mechas.”

“You can’t say that. Didn’t you see how many of the Cleaners died…”

“Haha, they’re a bunch of useless people. They hid behind us mechas. How can they die?”
