On the way.
Aiden opened WeChat and asked Lunara, the beautiful salesgirl at Starlight Store.
"Hey, do you buy materials?"
The chat window jolted instantly. Lunara replied almost immediately:
"Uh? Materials? What grade? You, you, you didn't go out to the wild with an Iron Rank armor and staff yesterday, did you?!"
Aiden's lips twitched slightly. He didn't say much.
He just typed:
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Uh? You don't know? It's big news, didn't you watch TikTok?!"
Lunara was shocked. She typed that and sent a shock emoji.
Aiden frowned and asked:
"What happened? I was tired yesterday, so I went to bed early."
Lunara quickly replied:
"We don't buy materials, because all the items at Starlight Store have stable supply lines. You know that, cutie. We have strict quality control."
"But if you want to buy gear, second-hand purchases, I can give you a discount. A batch of Enchanted gear just came in yesterday!"
Lunara sent a cute emoji.
Aiden stayed silent.
He had more gear than he needed right now. Epic, Diamond Rank, Gold Rank - all top-tier stuff!
Starlight Store probably didn't even have that.
No, not even Epic or Diamond Rank - definitely not.
Maybe Gold Rank, but it would be super expensive.
He nodded thoughtfully and muttered to himself:
"Then I should ask the Reclasser Association or Warrior God Guild."
Aiden frowned.
In The White City, the two biggest trading houses were backed by the strongest guilds.
One was Warrior God Guild, Selena's family.
The other was Dragonlight Guild, Kael's family.
"Let me go to Warrior God Guild after my Class Change."
Aiden rubbed his temples and made a simple plan for the day.
Then his phone buzzed again.
Lunara sent another message.
"Check TikTok, you're okay, otherwise The White City would be missing a super handsome guy. Yesterday, something big happened in the wild. It was really scary!"
"Now, the whole city is talking. It might be that The White City is about to face a disaster."
What?
Aiden stared at Lunara's message, confused.
He opened the short video app, logged in, and was immediately shocked.
What the hell was going on?
Trending.
The top three local trending topics were all about him.
Not just TikTok, Aiden checked other video platforms, local news sites, and more.
Everyone was talking about Aiden.
"Shocking! A Red-Name Boss Appears in The White City!"
"Slain the Dragon! A Genius Teen Slays a 30-Level Dragon!"
"Out-of-town Genius? Forbidden Spells on the Move! A Top-Tier Genius Who Controls Forbidden Spells!"
"Are you crazy? Call this just awakening?"
"The whole city is in panic. What faction has invaded The White City?"
"A boss siege disaster is about to start! The Iron Dragon Boss Tetian has come out of a space rift!"
Looking at all the shocking video titles, Aiden let out a bitter laugh and shook his head.
You didn't expect it, but the big thing Lunara was talking about was actually caused by Aiden.
"Who would have thought, I actually went viral."
Aiden took a quick look at the comments.
He was already famous in other provinces.
Even the comment section had IPs from major cities.
Some top-tier Reclasers from big cities were shocked by the video and kept saying this was definitely a young Lord from a top family!
"Wow! So fucking cool! Forbidden spells! He's already mastered forbidden spells at level 10!"
"Whoa! His movements are so smooth! Look at his steps, S-shaped movement! This kind of battle skill feels like he's been through countless life-or-death fights!"
"What, a level 10 genius? You think forbidden spells are just for fun? Healing spell! This is definitely not level 10! His battle skills are so smooth because he's been training in real danger all the time. Level 10 is just a low rating. Challenging a level 30 boss at level 10, that's how he learned deeper battle skills in a near-death situation!"
"Whoa! Is this real?!"
"Too bad! I didn't get to see his face. Why didn't they shot his face? You can tell from his body that he's a super handsome guy!"
"Wait, how can you tell from his body? Are you kidding me? You guys are all such fangirls!"
"Not shooting the face? You dare to shoot it? This kind of young Lord, we don't even know his background. If you accidentally reveal something too big, the person who filmed it might get in trouble!"
"Oh right! But wait, why did the Iron Dragon Boss Tetian come to The White City? Didn't we hear that he went into the Abyssal Sanctum before?!"
"A space rift opened, look at the trending topics, they're saying disaster is coming!"
"..."
A quick glance at the comments made Aiden laugh and sigh.
So crazy!
The netizens, especially those in The White City, started a collective imagination, making all kinds of wild guesses about Aiden's identity and background!
And the more they talked, the wilder it got.
Even Aiden, who read it, found it a little funny.
Was this really talking about me?
But one message made Aiden's expression turn cold for a moment.
"Well, I see."
"The Iron Dragon Boss came out of a space rift. Wasn't he supposed to have gone into the Abyssal Sanctum already?!"
Abyssal Sanctum
Although the name is "Secret Realm,"
It's actually a world far, far bigger than the entire Earth.
Its territory could fit millions of Earths.
In the depths live countless undead creatures-demons, ghosts, skeletons, strange witch women, and more...
To put it simply, the biggest enemy of Earth is the demon bosses from the depths.
The noble demons in the depths are all extremely powerful.
From the weakest demon baron to the strongest demon duke-
Each of these demon bosses, when they tear open a space rift and appear on Earth, would bring a disaster!
Even the worst case would be a city-destroying disaster.
"No wonder," Aiden nodded, rubbing his chin slightly.
The Iron Dragon Boss was actually a fluke for Aiden.
If it hadn't come out of a space rift, Aiden wouldn't have had the chance to kill this red-name boss and get the rich loot.
He looked up, then turned off his phone.
The fact that he went viral on Douyin didn't cause any emotional waves for him.
This kind of fame was just something outside of him.
And luckily, the person who filmed him didn't capture his face.
No need to worry.
Of course, the most important thing was that the video of Aiden using Blazing Tornado was edited very exciting and positive, with no hint of negativity.
Aiden was pretty satisfied with it.
"Also a true fan," Aiden smiled and slightly narrowed his eyes.
Soon, Aiden arrived at the school.
He went straight to the student office.
As he approached the office, he looked through the crack in the door and saw a familiar figure!
Elyra!
And standing in front of Elyra was a fat, middle-aged woman with a yellowish face.
The two were half-closing their eyes, talking about something.
"I said from the start, Ms. May, this Aiden is just a bottom feeder. I don't know if he was really that hardworking before. Maybe he just cheated on the exams!"
Elyra smiled, adding fuel to the fire with her mocking words.
May was shocked. "Really? Is that true?"
Elyra raised her eyebrows. "Yeah, you didn't know? That exam room, there was a girl who always had good grades. She's been secretly in love with Aiden for a while. Maybe she passed him notes during the test."
May's nose twitched, and she suddenly got angry.
"Good! This kind of bad student, cheating on exams! Think he can cheat forever? On Awakening Day, he finally showed his true colors! Hmph! I really should expel him today!"
Elyra waved her hand.
"Hey, Ms. May, I don't think we need to be that harsh. Let me handle it. I just awakened to Epic class. I can help train Aiden a little. He might still be able to get into a regular college for the College Testing."
