Global Deities: My SSS-Rank Talent Lets Me Evolve Everything

Chapter 83: Nonsense Literature

On the other side, Li Tianheng’s team was commanding their followers to slaughter the 3,000 low-level demonic beasts before them.

Opening the leaderboard and looking at Yang Fan’s points, Li Tianheng’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

He couldn’t understand why, after he and his brothers had been exploring non-stop, day and night, for this entire period, they had been left so far behind by the other party.

“How did that bastard manage this?” Li Tianheng said through gritted teeth.

Li Chengze didn’t understand it either.

After all, they were a ten-person team.

Even though the resources they obtained had to be split, the distance they could penetrate into the Divine Kingdom was not something a lone wolf like Yang Fan could compare to.

With only his own forces, Yang Fan was likely still exploring the outer perimeter.

“Brother Tianheng, rumor has it that Yang Fan was a top student in Class 7. Could it be that he really has some insight into resource gathering?” Li Chengze asked skeptically.

“Really? Is there actually a trick to gathering resources?” Li Tianheng was equally confused.

If it were just a small difference, it might be fine; perhaps one could say it was luck, or that Yang Fan had some gathering techniques.

But the gap was too large—anyone who didn’t know better would think he was collecting resources deep within the Divine Kingdom.

“There’s someone named Li Shuhao who seems to be his classmate. I’ll have someone ask around.”

“No need. The real deciding factor is deep within the Divine Kingdom. I will take first place based on my own strength,” Li Tianheng refused directly.

Seeing this, Li Chengze couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

“Big Brother is too stubborn. I’ll make arrangements secretly. If there really is a good method, everyone will be able to harvest a lot more during this time.” Li Chengze secretly made a decision.

As much as he disliked Yang Fan, no one would turn their back on Faith Points.

Yang City villa.

“Husband, can you continue to accompany me shopping today? The First Department Store has some new arrivals. I heard those clothes are from a Tier 2 Cultivation Divine Kingdom and are engraved with dust-repelling and waterproof arrays. I want to go take a look.” Luo Rou held Yang Fan’s hand and acted coquettishly.

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan forced a wry smile.

One day, he was genuinely bored, so he accompanied Luo Rou for a shopping trip.

It was pure torture.

She tried on twenty or thirty items in one store.

Yang Fan went from standing to sitting, and finally to lying down.

Yang Fan truly couldn’t understand how anyone could enjoy such a boring activity.

Now that they weren’t short on money, they could just shop online for even the most high-end clothing, and it could be materialized into reality in minutes.

He simply couldn’t understand how those physical shops in reality managed to survive.

Just as Yang Fan was pondering how to refuse, a message came through on his watch.

“My good friend has something important to discuss with me. Definitely next time.” Yang Fan opened Li Shuhao’s invitation to show her, and then put on his virtual helmet as if he were fleeing for his life.

Arriving at the private room in Tianxiang Renjian, before the other party could even start talking about business, Yang Fan sent a message and called his old friend, Liu Ruyan, over.

“Brother Yang, why haven’t you seen me in so long?”

Yang Fan opened his arms, and she sat on his lap naturally.

The movement was fluid and perfectly in sync.

Seeing this scene, Li Shuhao was stunned and couldn’t help but say, “Brother Yang, you’re quite practiced at this.”

“Do it enough times, and you get used to it. Practice makes perfect!” Yang Fan said shamelessly.

Li Shuhao coughed.

“Well, Brother Yang, your points are firmly in first place. I thought you were busy exploring the Divine Kingdom the whole time; I didn’t expect to actually be able to book an appointment with you.”

“Let’s meet often when we have time. Although exploring the Divine Kingdom consumes energy, one must occasionally come here to relax. Staying in a high-pressure state all the time will actually reduce the efficiency of gathering resources. We must learn to balance work and rest.” Yang Fan spoke nonsense with a straight face.

During this time, Li Shuhao had been acting like a mouse seeing a cat whenever he saw him, and he hadn’t even sent any messages to explain privately.

Now that they were meeting suddenly, it wasn’t hard to guess that someone had put him up to it.

Naturally, Yang Fan wouldn’t treat him with sincerity.

“Brother Yang, your efficiency is ridiculously high. Do you have any tips to guide a brother?” Li Shuhao rubbed his hands together, looking slightly embarrassed.

“Small matter. Let me recommend a few books to you.”

“I’d appreciate your guidance, Brother Yang.”

“Guide to Resource Gathering in the Divine Kingdom, On the Dynamic Distribution of Spirit Plants, and Appreciation of the Alien Divine Kingdom Compendium,” Yang Fan said.

Li Shuhao frowned, his eyes filled with confusion.

“Um… Brother Yang, aren’t these the compulsory education textbooks for fifth grade of elementary school?”

“That’s right!”

“Can these be useful?”

“That’s where you don’t understand. Do you know that all theorems are derived from axioms? Similarly, all profound knowledge evolves from these basic contents. As long as you thoroughly understand these few books, you’ll grasp the fundamental principles behind everything.”

“Right now in the Alien Divine Kingdom, by following the knowledge I learned from the books, I can easily find the Spirit Plant gardens and clusters of demonic beasts.”

“One only regrets having read too little when the time comes to use it. Only now do I realize how much I missed in elementary school. During this time, I’ve spent my days exploring the Divine Kingdom and my nights studying elementary school textbooks. It wasn’t easy to carve out time to see you.” Yang Fan took a sip of the red wine in front of him, his eyes revealing a hint of profundity.

“Really?”

“Truer than real gold!”

“Brother Yang, are you messing with me?”

“How could that be? With my character, I would never scam my own brother. Remember to settle the bill. I’m going to the room next door.” After saying that, Yang Fan took Liu Ruyan’s hand and walked out.

Watching Yang Fan’s back, Li Shuhao sat there, falling into deep self-doubt.

“This is the chat video, Brother Chengze. I’ve sent the message to the group chat.” Li Shuhao sent the message.

“Damn, that dog Yang Fan is actually talking about character? Hasn’t he scammed enough brothers? I told you not to ask, but you insisted on going. @Li Chengze.”

“Brother, you finished watching it so fast? @Li Tianheng”

“…”

In another room, just as Yang Fan was about to get to the main point, his wrist suddenly beeped with a notification.

Seeing the identity of the sender, he was a bit conflicted about whether to go or not.

“Sister Ruyan, I have something to take care of. I’ll transfer 10,000 as a tip. Let’s meet again when we have time.”

Yang Fan got dressed, tapped the coordinates, and left Tianxiang Renjian.

“Sister Bing, I wonder why you are looking for me?” Yang Fan said politely.

Although he had scammed Luo Bing, she had much more class than Li Tianheng, and she hadn’t taken revenge on him even now.

“Why is your resource gathering so fast?” Luo Bing went straight to the point.

“This…”

“If it’s inconvenient, forget it. Goodbye.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the other party vanished instantly.

Seeing this, Yang Fan was left completely stunned.

What was that?

Is this person sick?

Not only did she interrupt his good time, but she also left so quickly.

Are you messing with me?

And it’s not like I said I wouldn’t tell you!

After leaving, Luo Bing arrived at a conference room.

“Sister Bing, this is the video leaked from the boys’ group. They said Li Shuhao has already found out Yang Fan’s secret, so we don’t need to ask that scumbag.”

“Good, project it now. Let’s study it together.” Luo Bing nodded seriously.

A dozen or so geniuses from the Luo Family sat upright in the conference room, watching the conversation between Yang Fan and Li Shuhao with serious expressions, afraid of missing a single detail.

A full quarter of an hour passed before the video ended, and the entire conference room was abnormally quiet.

“Um… Sister Bing, my younger sister seems to be in the fifth grade. Should I borrow a book from her to take a look?” One of them hesitated, unsure whether what Yang Fan said was true or false.

This sentence seemed to make some sense, but it also felt like nonsense literature!
