Note From Developer: I’m a big fan of Chinese web novels, but I often came across great stories with poor translations. That’s why I started this website! My goal is to make this the best web novel translation site out there. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to reach out on Discord or Instagram.

Ye Zhongming had experienced many battles and witnessed numerous competitions between strong individuals during the ten years of the apocalypse, but he had never seen anything like what was unfolding before him now.
Pulling, tearing, scratching, and even biting...
There was no form, no rules, nothing at all. Every method that could inflict harm or hinder the opponent was used to the extreme.
It wasn't just Liang Chuyin; even Teacher Park was the same, and her opponent was a burly male student.
This method of fighting opened Ye Zhongming's eyes.
Liang Chuyin and Park Soo-young were equally furious. They had been mining magic crystals successfully, each collecting over a hundred in a short time. They estimated that if they finished collecting in the relatively safe areas, they could reach a total of five hundred, not counting the places they were afraid to go due to the reappearance of zombies, which could add over two hundred more.
Although the work was disgusting, the sense of achievement from collecting each magic crystal made the two women forget their discomfort and work with enthusiasm.
However, they didn't expect that before they could finish collecting, some people suddenly appeared from somewhere, including many old acquaintances from the armed department, and began collecting magic crystals just like them, which made Liang Chuyin and Park Soo-young unhappy.
These crystals were theirs, and they couldn't just ignore someone picking up the spoils. Liang Chuyin, who was hot-tempered, immediately went over to question them.
But these people completely ignored her and kept digging. In just a short while, they had already taken dozens of crystals.
At first, Liang Chuyin and Park Soo-young wanted to compete with them for speed, hoping to collect more themselves, but soon realized it was impossible. After all, there were too many of them. Even though their tools weren't as good and their efficiency wasn't as high, they were still digging more than the two women.
When the corpses around had almost been dealt with, Liang Chuyin couldn't help but confront these people for the second time, demanding the return of the magic crystals. Not only did they refuse to return them, but they also had thoughts of robbing the crystals from the two women.
As the secret of the roulette began to spread, all the internet celebrities, former idols, and beautiful teacher fantasies were pushed to the side. What they wanted most was to gain that mysterious power.
Thus, a fight broke out. To protect the magic crystals, even Teacher Park got involved.
By the time Ye Zhongming and Mo Ye arrived, the two women had already been knocked down, and many people had turned over their backpacks, excitedly shouting upon seeing them filled with magic crystals.
“Put them down!”
A cold voice interrupted their fantasies about the mysterious roulette. Looking up, they saw Ye Zhongming with a furious expression.
Some people who had been rescued by Ye Zhongming from the teaching building, as well as those who had escaped from the armed department, instinctively felt fear. However, more people were not afraid at all.
That's how people are sometimes; when faced with easily obtainable benefits, they don’t know how to make choices.
These people subconsciously ignored the machete in Ye Zhongming's hand and instead clutched their backpacks and magic crystals tightly to their chests.
“Who are you? Why should we give them to you?”
These magic crystals were won at the cost of four people's lives. Not to mention Liang Chuyin, even Park Soo-young, who was somewhat indifferent to Ye Zhongming, got involved. Mo Ye, who had basically accepted Ye Zhongming in her heart, saw her companions being beaten down and casually pushed aside those who were still bullying them. Hearing someone actually say, "Why should we give them to you?" made her even angrier.
“Because we killed those zombies!”
Anyone who could study or teach at this university wasn’t foolish. When Mo Ye said this, they all understood that she wasn't lying. However, would they be willing to admit it? No, they wouldn't, because admitting it meant losing these magic crystals, which they couldn’t accept.
