Zhang Ze had just logged out, and Yu Ying and the others had also arrived at this mountain hollow.

"Are you sure this is the right direction, Sister Yu Ying?" The little princess pouted, "That's an elite boss! Killing it will definitely drop a lot of rewards, all money!"

Long Wang snorted and said, "You're thinking too much. Is an elite boss that easy to deal with? Who knows who will die!"

The little princess glared at Long Wang and said irritably, "Two S-grade talents, three A-grade talents, isn't this lineup strong enough? I don't believe we five can't defeat an elite boss!"

"It's really hard to say... it also depends on the strength of the elite boss." Ju Shen spoke up. He was steady and older than the others, so he had the highest prestige and usually served as the team leader.

Yi Ye Zhi Qiu looked at the silent Yu Ying and shook his head, "Yu Ying, saving that newbie is probably..."

Yu Ying was silent for a moment and said, "Tomorrow I'll go to school and find Teacher Liu Wei. That person should be his student. If someone really is in trouble, he should know."

...

A flash of light appeared in the living room, and Zhang Ze's figure emerged. It was around 1:00 AM.

His sister was already fast asleep, and Zhang Ze quietly returned to his room.

Obtaining the SSS-grade talent filled Zhang Ze with hope for the future. He suppressed his excitement and gradually fell asleep.

The next day, Zhang Ze was woken up by the aroma of food. He walked out of his bedroom and saw his sister, Zhang Feng, cooking in the kitchen.

"Good morning, brother! Wait a moment, the food will be ready soon!" Zhang Feng smiled at Zhang Ze, but her face was somewhat pale.

Zhang Ze knew that Zhang Feng's artificial kidney was deteriorating and needed timely rent payments to continue functioning.

He didn't say anything. After the food was ready, the two siblings sat down to eat.

"Brother, I heard that the Demon Realm is very dangerous. Maybe you shouldn't go." Zhang Feng put a piece of egg on Zhang Ze's plate, "I can find a way to pay the rent myself."

"How will you do that?" Zhang Ze was taken aback. It wasn't a small amount, and his sister was just a sixteen-year-old student. Where could she get so much money?

"It's a secret! Hehe." Zhang Feng teased, not saying more.

"I have a way to handle the rent! Don't worry about it." Zhang Ze shook his head, "At your age, focus on your studies!"

He originally planned to tell his sister about his awakened SSS-grade talent, but after some thought, he decided to keep it a secret.

The fewer people who knew about this secret, the better, especially his family and friends, to avoid getting them into danger.

"Brother, believe me!" Zhang Feng said anxiously. She had never dared to ask what talent Zhang Ze had awakened, fearing it would hurt his self-esteem.

After all, out of ten thousand people, no more than five could awaken an A-grade talent, and the rest were ordinary or even trash talents.

Zhang Feng wasn't looking down on her brother, but the probability was really too low.

"That's settled!" Zhang Ze finished the food in his bowl, waved his hand, and walked out of the house.

At school, as soon as he entered the classroom, Zhang Ze heard the students discussing yesterday's events in the Demon Realm.

"Ah! I awakened a D-grade talent, so I can only be an ordinary person for the rest of my life!"

"Being ordinary isn't bad, a simple life is true happiness!"

"Speaking so casually, what talent did you awaken?"

"…B-grade."

"Damn! You said we'd be failures together, but you became a genius!"

Zhang Ze silently walked to his desk, took out his phone, and checked the magic soul balls and the dagger he had listed on the trading website last night.

As expected, everything was sold. Zhang Ze directly withdrew the money, and 198,000 yuan was credited to his bank account.

Magic soul balls were in high demand, with many people constantly monitoring the trading website. Once someone listed them, they were immediately snapped up! Even if the price was a bit high, it didn't matter!

These buyers were from various major corporations, government agencies, and private organizations, using the magic soul balls to cultivate their talents.

If Zhang Ze didn't urgently need the money, he wouldn't have sold them.

"Today, I must get more magic soul balls in the Demon Realm!"

The class bell rang, and the homeroom teacher, Liu Wei, walked into the classroom, followed by a girl.

Many people immediately recognized that this girl was Yu Ying, who had led them to defeat the first-floor boss yesterday.

"Wow, seeing the goddess in person, she's even more beautiful than in the Demon Realm!"

"I wonder if the goddess has a boyfriend. If not, that would be great!"

"Wake up! You'll never be worthy of her in your life!"

Liu Wei cleared his throat, and the classroom quieted down.

"Classmates, there was an emergency during the fight against the first-floor boss last night. I won't go into details, as you were all there."

"So I want to ask, who helped Yu Ying lead the boss away? Please stand up, Yu Ying wants to personally thank you!"

The students looked at each other. When the elite Iron-Toothed Wolf appeared, they all ran away, and they didn't know what happened afterward.

Zhang Ze didn't stand up. He wasn't there to save anyone, and if Yu Ying asked about the elite Iron-Toothed Wolf, it could expose him, so he remained silent.

After waiting for a while with no one speaking, Liu Wei frowned and said to Yu Ying, "Yu Ying, that person might not be from our class."

Yu Ying sighed slightly and nodded, "I understand, Teacher Liu Wei. If you hear any news, please let me know."

Liu Wei escorted Yu Ying out of the classroom, and the class immediately burst into chatter.

"Who is this? To dare lead an elite boss! Is he crazy?"

"That's a real hero! I admire him!"

"Ah! I'll come clean, it was actually me who led the monster away! Is it still in time to tell the goddess?"

"Even with a peanut, you wouldn't be that drunk!"

Next to Zhang Ze, a chubby boy with glasses poked him, "Actually, I know who it is!"

The boy was Wang Yang, one of Zhang Ze's few friends.

Wang Yang came from a wealthy family but was a poor student. Zhang Ze often helped him with his studies, and as a reward, Wang Yang would give Zhang Ze some money.

"Who is it?" Zhang Ze was taken aback and turned to look at Wang Yang.

Wang Yang said mysteriously, "After the elite Iron-Toothed Wolf appeared, everyone ran out, but only one person ran back. I remember his name, it seems to be called Luo Sha."

Zhang Ze remained calm, "That's not necessarily true. Maybe he was just panicked and ran the wrong way. Besides, did you see Luo Sha lead the boss?"

Wang Yang scratched his head, "Well, no..." He waved his hand, "Forget it, it's not our business. Brother, let's go to the Demon Realm to fight monsters after school? I've invited two girls, so we can each have one... hehe."

"No, I still have to work at the school martial arts hall." Zhang Ze firmly declined.

"I remember your sister's kidney needs another rent payment, right?" Wang Yang's expression turned serious, "If you need money, just tell your brother!"

"Thanks, I can handle it myself." Zhang Ze smiled slightly.

"Alright, if you go to the Demon Realm, remember to find me. My name is Shuai Pang!"

If Wang Yang didn't trust Zhang Ze completely, he wouldn't have told him his name in the Demon Realm.

...

After school, Zhang Ze went to the school martial arts hall to clean.

At that moment, a group of people were gathered around a strength tester, watching a boy punch the target.
