"Oh my god, they actually said I overpowered Saitama? I had no idea I was that awesome."
"It's true that Saitama and I both have the strength of a top-five S-class rank."
"How come the whole thing was filmed? From that angle, isn't that the drone?" Lin Qing really hadn't expected that the drone would be live-streaming.
However, the scene of Saitama fighting Kagami was fine at first, but it got worse towards the end.
The air was filled with water vapor, making the video a blurry white mess, so no one knew the outcome of the battle.
After reading the news, Lin Qing quickly opened the Hero Bureau's app, only to find it filled with messages about Lin Qing and Saitama.
Seeing that there were still messages in the background, I quickly opened it to take a look.
【Dear Mr. Lin Qing, after a unanimous discussion among the high-ranking officials and the highest-ranking leader of the Hero Bureau, your ranking has been raised to eleventh place in the S-level category.】
Tomorrow, the fifth S-rank swordsman will conduct the certification. After the certification, your ranking will change.
Lin Qing checked the message; it was sent yesterday, and it looked like it should arrive today.
Lin Qing glanced at the eleventh-ranked S-class student and realized that he earned ten million every month. All of the top one hundred S-class students earned ten million every month.
The top ten S-tier players who created the Heroic Rank also have ten million, but that's normal. At this level, they have no shortage of money, so ten million is probably just a symbol.
"Haha, ten million a month, then we won't have to compete with those B-level and A-level guys for monsters anymore." Lin Qing laughed heartily.
Of course, if an S-class monster appears, Lin Qing will definitely deal with it immediately.
In fact, once you reach the B-class hero level, you're basically never short of money, and the rewards for killing monsters aren't actually that high.
An S-class monster is capable of destroying an entire city, yet it only has ten million.
When you reach a certain level of strength, killing monsters is no longer about making money, but about fulfilling your social responsibility.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the Sword God came to visit.
"Hey bro, I couldn't get through to you on the phone, so I had to come all this way. I finally managed to get over here while my daughter was asleep," the Sword God complained as soon as he walked in.
Lin Qing checked and said, "Uh, it seems I forgot to pay my phone bill. It was connected to Wi-Fi, so I didn't know I was overdue."
"It's just a matter of one phone call, why bother making a trip? Well then, your verification is complete, I'm off." The Sword God left after a brief exchange.
Lin Qing watched the departing Sword God in silence.
In the days that followed, Lin Qing lived an incredibly leisurely life, traveling all over China and enjoying delicious food.
In my spare time, I deal with weirdos and maintain world peace.
And just like that, a year passed.
That day, Lin Qing was having a farewell dinner with Saitama and the other two. A year had passed, and Saitama and the others were preparing to return to Japan.
In the past year, Saitama has made an unknown amount of money, but he's been sneaking around and hasn't told Lin Qing.
Saitama's ranking has reached twelfth in the S-class. Not to mention, even Genos's ranking has reached S-class, but he is at the very bottom.
"It's been a year, and I have to go back to Japan. After all, I really can't delay the visa any longer," Saitama said sadly.
I'll go back to the island nation first, and then continue applying for a visa, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get it.
There was nothing they could do; Saitama's name had already spread to the island nation, and his formidable strength had become known to the island's Hero Association and government.
How could such a powerful guardian deity be placed in China? Of course, if Saitama wanted to come to China, no one could stop him.
"We can do it when we get back. You've made so much money this year, and all you're doing is treating us to barbecue skewers?" Lin Qing said with utter disdain.
"Tch, you have so much good food, why don't you take it out and eat it?" Saitama spoke fluent Mandarin.
Lin Qing shrugged and said, "I don't know who shamelessly took ten roasted red pigs from me."
Three hours later, Saitama, Genos, and KG boarded a plane bound for the island nation.
[Ding! Upgrade complete. New system features are available. Please check them out.]
The long-lost voice rang in Lin Qing's mind. On the surface, he remained calm, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
"A new feature, tsk tsk tsk, I wonder what it is." Lin Qing quickly called up the system to check.

"That's it? That's all?" Lin Qing was full of questions.
Everything else remained the same, except for these three question marks, followed by "to be unlocked".
"The God System has a new function, and it tells me to check it myself? What kind of nonsense is that?" Lin Qing was truly speechless.
"Alright, let's leave it at that for now. System, expand my storage space to 20,000 cubic meters."
[This requires 18 million evolution points. Confirm expansion?]
"Sure."
[Upgrade complete. Please check it yourself.]
Chapter 441 Battle Qi Transforms into a Horse (Please subscribe, vote for monthly tickets, and recommend!)
Lin Qing sat alone at the top of the tallest building in China, the Shanghai Center Building, gazing at Shanghai under the night sky.
"System, travel to the next world."
[Traveling to the next world will cost 1000 Evolution Points. Confirm your travel?]
"Sure."
Lin Qing came to his senses after an unknown amount of time—perhaps a very long time, or perhaps only a second.
At this moment, Lin Qing was not on the central building, but on a high ground, gazing into the distance, where he could vaguely see a magnificent city.
[Ding! Successful transmigration. Current world: Battle Through the Heavens.]
Main Quest: Collect Different Flames. At least five of the twenty-two different flames.
Task Rewards: Advancement of the Three Flavors Divine Fire, 15 million Evolution Points.
Mission failed: Unable to travel to the next world.
"I read Battle Through the Heavens many years ago. Five different flames? Why didn't you collect them all?" Lin Qing asked with slight confusion.
Moreover, Lin Qing seemed to remember that there were twenty-three different kinds of strange flames in the Doupo world.
Immediately, Lin Qing bought the novel "Battle Through the Heavens" from the World Store.
"Hey, they even have comics, anime, and even TV series! Great, great, I'll buy them all."
Lin Qing spent four million evolution points to buy all the novels, comics, anime, and TV series of Battle Through the Heavens.
He wasn't in a hurry. His divine sense still told him that the small town in the distance was Wutan City, where the protagonist Xiao Yan was located, and that the story hadn't even started yet.
So Lin Qing found an open space and took out the villa he had built in the Marvel universe.
Lin Qing lay on the sofa and first started reading the novel, reviewing it once, before moving on to reading comics, anime, and TV series.
The day passed by while reading novels.
"A classic is a classic, it's wonderful. Battle Through the Heavens is the first novel I ever read," Lin Qing exclaimed.
To be honest, when I read it before, it was really enjoyable and satisfying, but now after reading just one chapter, I don't feel that way anymore.
The plot is full of clichés and melodramatic elements, but that's normal, considering that Battle Through the Heavens is a novel from ten years ago.
These seemingly clichéd and melodramatic plots from novels written ten years ago were completely new, directly creating a new genre.
"Now that I've finished the novel, let's read the comics!"
"Hmm, the artwork is pretty good, quite exquisite, not bad, not bad at all. But it's still not finished? Are these things still being serialized in the real world?"
Lin Qing felt like he had lost out big time, so he started watching anime again. Two seasons of anime, that's two seasons.
"It's actually in 3D! Which studio produced the first season? It was really stiff. The second season was not bad."
"I've finished reading novels, comics, and anime, so let's watch a TV series. The actors seem pretty good."
Lin Qing turned on the TV series "Battle Through the Heavens" with a hint of anticipation and started playing it.
"The five major families of Wutan City, along with a group of warriors, rode off on horseback to hunt down the Soul Emperor."
"When did the five major families in Wutan City become the strongest forces on the continent???"
"Damn, a horse formed from fighting spirit, that's terrifying! Holy crap, couldn't you at least add some special effects to the wings formed from fighting spirit? Are you serious with those two plastic wings?"
"Damn it, even a Battle Saint can't catch up with someone on horseback. It's outrageous, outrageous!"
"Holy crap, are you kidding me? Hey you, director Yu Rongguang? Don't make me go back to the real world, or else..."
Saitama's serious boxing couldn't make him vomit blood, but this TV series "Battle Through the Heavens" is even stronger than Saitama's punches, and he almost vomited blood.
Lin Qing was speechless. He hurriedly deleted the Battle Through the Heavens TV series and then took out a roasted red pig to cheer himself up.
"It smells so good." A young man led a unicorn out of the woods ahead.
An old man and a young girl followed closely behind, each leading a unicorn.
"Junior Sister Yanran, elders, you must be tired from your journey. Would you like to have something to eat?" the young man asked solicitously.
Upon hearing this, the old man nodded and said, "Go ahead, and remember to give that man plenty of money. It's not easy for an ordinary person like him to hunt this magical beast."
Mo Li immediately smiled and nodded, then walked alone towards Lin Qing, who was gnawing on a pig's head.
"Thud!" A small bag was thrown in front of Lin Qing.
