# Chapter 604: The Strongest BOSS in History
One hundred training participants excitedly rushed into the Sword Mountain Spirit Ruins!
At the same time, on the official website of Kyoto Spirit University, the footage inside the Spirit Ruins was being live-streamed simultaneously!
It was the weekend, and students holed up in their dormitories had long been impatiently waiting to watch the live stream on their phones!
And news of the training competition spread like wildfire!
Jiangnan's fans on Weibo, who hadn't received any updates from him in over half a year, were absolutely starving for content!
They flooded the official website like mad dogs to watch the live stream, nearly crashing the servers!
"My dear mother, I've been missing my Southern God so much!"
"Finally showing up? It's been killing me!"
"Fairy wand is ready! Where's Southern God? I want to see my Southern God!"
Xing Da was dumbfounded. What kind of insane popularity was this?
Over four million people had flooded into the livestream as soon as it started?
Just this wave alone was equivalent to a huge advertisement for Kyoto Spirit University!
He originally thought giving away so many tickets would be a loss!
But they ended up making a killing, didn't they?
...
At the top of the stone pillar mountain, one hundred participants poured in. The moment they entered, they saw a crimson griffin lying on the mountaintop, scaring them!
What's going on?
Jiangnan's spirit pet? How did it get up here?
Xiao Jiuwo lifted its wings, revealing Jiangnan sleeping soundly in its embrace!
"Master~ Time to wake up, they're all here!"
Everyone looked terrified!
What the hell?
It talks? Since when do spirit beasts talk?
Jiangnan burrowed deeper into Xiao Jiuwo's embrace!
"No way~ I don't want to! Sleep a little longer, just a little!"
Xiang Zu and the others all had dark looks on their faces!
Wasn't this supposed to be a BOSS battle?
You came into the Spirit Ruins all afternoon, did nothing, didn't even hide, and just slept by the entrance the whole afternoon?
And you even have morning crankiness?
Is this what slacking off looks like?
[From Xiang Zu, Resentment Value +1000]
[From Wang Zhan...]
Xiao Jiuwo: !!!
"Master~ They're grinding their teeth. If you don't get up, they'll beat you up!"
Jiangnan: (｡⁼̴ࡇก̀｡)
He reluctantly sat up, rubbing his sleepy eyes, looking completely dazed!
"Ah... the training competition, right. I forgot."
He stretched lazily and looked at the crowd: "Seriously? You guys are this obedient? Just standing there staring?"
"When I was sleeping just now, that was a perfect ambush opportunity. I gave you the chance, and you didn't take it!"
Veins bulged on the foreheads of every participant!
Wang Zhan slowly untied the bandages wrapped around his hands and sneered, "Ambush? I, Wang Zhan, would never stoop to that!"
"Are you ready? I've never experienced a spatial system's abilities before!"
Jiangnan shook his head with a bitter smile: "Never stoop? You guys are adorably naive."
He raised his hand and pulled out a Paralysis Ring, putting it on the middle finger of his right hand!
Ye Xingxuan's expression turned serious: "Everyone, spread out!"
In an instant, the hundred participants scattered, surrounding Jiangnan from 360 degrees without死角!
Xiao Jiuwo said nervously, "Master~ Do you need my help?"
Jiangnan smiled brightly, his right middle finger turning gold as he pointed it at the group!
The "MB" on it was so conspicuous!
"No need! A bunch of little cuties, your old man only needs one finger to handle you!"
At this moment, the participants were completely enraged, blood rushing to their heads, eyes bloodshot!
They felt that their dignity had been insulted!
You can't look down on people like this!
"Everyone attack! Teach him a lesson!"
In an instant, explosions rang out across the field, and figures shot toward Jiangnan like arrows!
At this moment, the livestream chat exploded!
"What's going on? What kind of match is this? Why are a hundred Gold ranks ganging up on my Southern God?"
"Haha! Haven't seen him in so long, and Southern God is still as arrogantly punchable as ever!"
"Wasn't this supposed to be a BOSS battle? Blocking the entrance right away? What kind of shady operation is this?"
"Won't it end before it even starts?"
Watching the livestream, Xing Da's heart sank halfway. These foolish kids!
Jiangnan was deliberately provoking them!
When people get angry, they lose their overall perspective and keep making mistakes!
Now, the only goal left in their minds was to take down Jiangnan at all costs!
All the tactics they'd discussed all afternoon were completely forgotten!
With just one sentence, he effortlessly nullified everyone's preparations!
How could Xing Da's heart not sink?
Jiangnan might be young, but his experience was far too seasoned!
Looking at the charging crowd, Jiangnan grinned: "The first lesson I want to teach you!"
"Those who cannot control their emotions, likewise cannot control their lives!"
The moment seven or eight fireballs fell, Jiangnan vanished with a teleport!
"Boom!"
Where he had been standing, a giant crater over a hundred meters wide was blasted open!
Appearing in the middle of the crowd, Jiangnan thrust out a finger!
"Pfft!"
His iron-hard finger stabbed deeply into the shoulder of a Gold 7!
"Ahhh!"
A high-pitched scream echoed across the mountain. That brother's face was twisted in agony, frozen in place, experiencing the extreme thrill of paralysis!
Behind him, a lion beast-transformation system burly man seized the opportunity, raising his broad axe high and swinging it down with heaven-splitting force!
"Spiritual Art: Mountain Cleaver!"
Jiangnan didn't even dodge; he raised his middle finger to block!
"Clang!"
Sparks flew, the axe blade cracked, the axe head snapped off, spinning dozens of meters away!
The enormous force even cracked the ground under Jiangnan's feet into a spiderweb of fissures!
But Jiangnan was completely unharmed, not even a mark on his finger!
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow:
"(๑◔ٹ◔ิ๑) Mountain Cleaver? That's it? Are you here to trim my fingernails?"
The lion burly man was stunned! The participants were all shocked!
What kind of finger was that? Even an axe couldn't break its skin?
When he said he'd use just one finger, he wasn't lying at all!
The lion burly man glared: "What did you say? I'll—"
Before he could finish, Jiangnan's finger had already stabbed into his shoulder. Another one paralyzed!
Jiangnan didn't waste a moment. His figure flickered rapidly through the crowd, too fast for the naked eye to track!
No one knew where Jiangnan would appear next!
A series of screams rang out, and 14 people were paralyzed on the spot!
As an old double-standard dog, Jiangnan stabbed men in the shoulders and women on the tip of their noses!
At this moment, the participants were in chaos. They had no idea why being poked once by Jiangnan left them unable to move!
They could only desperately release skills, trying to prevent Jiangnan from getting close. But the mountaintop wasn't that big, making the scene even more chaotic, with friendly fire occurring!
Panic filled everyone's eyes!
How could Jiangnan be this strong?
They had read the information, but Jiangnan wasn't using anything written there!
Wang Zhan shouted urgently, "Don't panic! Everyone, don't panic! Spread out! Protect your entire body with spiritual arts! Don't let Jiangnan's middle finger touch you!"
As he spoke, he slapped his hand onto a nearby Gold 6 wood-system spirit warrior!
"Brother! Lend me your ability!"
Wang Zhan's ability was the extremely rare Copy!
His gifted spiritual art was Copy and Paste!
He could copy the abilities of spirit warriors at the same rank as him, and even their spiritual arts!
But the usage time was only 10 minutes, and it couldn't be saved!
After the time limit, if he wanted to continue using the ability, he would need to touch and copy again!
Even so, it was already very overpowered!
Wang Zhan could even copy Jiangnan's spatial system ability and spiritual arts!
In fact, that was exactly what he planned to do!
He slapped the ground: "Tree Armor!"
Tough ironwood broke through the soil, growing rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it formed a thick ironwood armor on Wang Zhan's body!
"Vine Whip!"
Several soft vines shot out from his palm, deeply embedded into the stone crevices, then contracted violently!
Dragging his entire body toward Jiangnan at terrifying speed!
By now, Jiangnan had paralyzed 21 people. Seeing Wang Zhan charging at him, he didn't dodge. His finger stabbed out with a sonic boom, straight toward Wang Zhan!
"Thousand Leaf Pine Needles!"
In an instant, pine needles as hard as steel needles shot toward Jiangnan!
Jiangnan's fingers danced into a blur, blocking all the pine needles!
Wang Zhan's eyes lit up: "Opportunity!"
He reached out his big hand toward Jiangnan!
Jiangnan thrust out his middle finger. Wang Zhan quickly withdrew his hand and blocked with his arm!
"Boom!"
The paralyzing middle finger stabbed deep into the ironwood but didn't touch Wang Zhan's body!
In an instant, the ironwood tightened, clamping Jiangnan's finger tightly, unable to pull it out!
Wang Zhan smiled triumphantly: "You fell for my trap!"
His other hand was already reaching from below, about to touch Jiangnan!
But at that moment, Wang Zhan's heart sank. Because there was no panic in Jiangnan's eyes—not even a trace of surprise!
He was terrifyingly calm!
Wang Zhan watched helplessly as half his arm sank into Jiangnan's body!
"Damn! Space Wormhole!"
Wang Zhan's hand extended out from 300 meters away, pressing down on a water-system ability user!
In an instant, all the ironwood armor on his body shattered into specks of spiritual light and dispersed!
The wood-system ability on him had vanished, replaced by the water-system ability!
Jiangnan's finger stabbed fiercely into Wang Zhan's chest!
"Hss—"
The excruciating pleasure of paralysis nearly made Wang Zhan explode. His face was full of shock!
Everything was within Jiangnan's prediction?
He predicted my prediction?
In such a short time, how did he react?
How did he know the weakness of my ability?
Paralyzed, Wang Zhan's eyes reddened as he forced out a sentence: "How did you know my Copy ability requires touching the opponent with my hand?"
Jiangnan said calmly, "You told me yourself. You had bandages on your hands. During the fight, you took them off."
"As if you were afraid no one would notice there was something wrong with your hands."
"Just now, you kept trying to touch me while attacking my vitals. If I still didn't know your hands were problematic, I'd be an idiot!"
Wang Zhan glared at Jiangnan, his jaw clenched so tight he could have ground his teeth to dust!
Jiangnan had noticed even such a detail?
Jiangnan: "You have some brains. But not enough. Your ability is very interesting. Don't waste your talent."
With that, he lifted his leg and brought it down like a thunderbolt, slamming it onto the top of Wang Zhan's head!
Smashing his entire head into the ground!
[From Wang Zhan, Resentment Value +1000]
The smile in Jiangnan's eyes grew even brighter: "Is this all you've got?"
"Good! Now I'm going to use three fingers! Little cuties, are you ready?"
At this moment, the expressions on the mountaintop participants had shifted from shock to terror!
One finger took down 22!
Three fingers? What kind of BOSS was this?
This was absolutely despair-inducing!
Unbelievably strong!
The strongest BOSS in history, wasn't it?
Jiangnan pulled his left hand out of his pocket and snapped his fingers three times in an instant!
"Void Black Hole! Hole! Hole!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
