Everything happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that no one else could react.

When the others in Class 6) recovered and looked over, they saw the curved blade with a light blue light swirling back to Qin Su's eyes. Qin Su quickly and gently grasped the middle part of the Double-Headed Curved Blade from below with his palm facing upwards.

The spinning, curved blade came to an abrupt halt, its sharp, cold light flashing as it sliced through Qin Su's hand.

Qin Su's movements were fluid and graceful, his knife flashing swiftly and ruthlessly.

Clang...

In the distance, Giant Man-Eating Worm that had leaped into the air was cleaved in two mid-air, its staggered cross-sections spraying blood as it crashed heavily to the ground with a thud, instantly sending up clouds of yellow sand.

"!!!"

This thrilling scene was resolved by Qin Su in an instant, with a swift and decisive action, leaving everyone who witnessed it wide-eyed.

"So cool and awesome!"

Few people use Cold Weapons like Military Saber, but Military Saber still exist and are constantly being updated. They are equipped on Combat Suit for different environments, just in case.

Although most of the time, the issued Military Sabers were used to cut up items and rarely used in combat.

Even during school training, they were only told that there were Military Saber and were asked to memorize the types of Military Saber and the scenarios in which they were used, without being given any actual training.

Not to mention someone like Qin Su, who just wielded a 50-centimeter-diameter Military Saber with unparalleled skill.

After it was over, he casually grabbed the blade from below and stopped it from spinning so fast they could no longer see it.

Qin Su's display of this skill alone was enough for them to learn.

As expected of the Class Monitor, he always brings them surprises.

If weapons were used to bombard it, the local residents who were close to the Giant Man-Eating Worm would undoubtedly be injured.

Qin Su not only instantly assessed the situation, but also swiftly took measures that surprised them and perfectly resolved the predicament.

Whether it's reaction speed, judgment, or operational ability, they are all far ahead of the competition.

The gap between them and Qin Su was like a chasm, insurmountable.

The students of Class 6, who were once again deeply shocked by Qin Su, quickly composed themselves and their trembling hands and hurriedly entered combat mode.

They're already quite weak in front of Qin Su; they absolutely cannot afford to falter again.

[666. I'm tired of saying, 'How many more surprises does Brother Su have that I don't know about?']

[Sit down, everyone sit down, basic stuff, don't be silly...]

Wow, he's so handsome, it caught me completely off guard!

[The invincible polygonal warrior, with no weaknesses, who else but me is number one!]

[As expected, true handsomeness is best seen in Cold Weapons]

[In this setting, not only are they extremely knowledgeable about Firearms, but they are also so skilled in using Cold Weapons. This is...]

The problem was successfully resolved, and no one was injured. Qin Su pretended to be indifferent, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He casually placed the Military Saber he had been holding in his palm against the side of his Combat Suit.

After a light blue light, the Military Saber was disassembled into several parts, which obediently nestled into the Combat Suit, becoming one with it once again.

Without a moment's hesitation, Qin Su withdrew his hand from the Military Saber and immediately entered the same fighting state as before.

His nonchalant demeanor made it seem as if everything that had just happened was merely a hallucination of the local residents.

But the corpse of the Giant Man-Eating Worm, lying quietly not far from them and instantly sliced in two by a sharp blade, told the local residents that this was not a hallucination, but an indisputable fact.

Seeing the menacing maw falling just a step away from them, several local residents wearing simple protective suits collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way and their faces filled with terror.

The other residents who witnessed this scene dragged their limp bodies back, temporarily subdued and daring not to cross the line again.

The students in Class 6, who were engaged in a Giant Man-Eating Worm, noticed this scene, and their hearts, which had been pounding, settled down, and they focused on what was in front of them.

Accompanied by a series of loud thuds as heavy objects crashed to the ground, countless Giant Man-Eating Worms, their wounds ripped open by various weapons, rolled off the stacks, their bodies covered in yellow sand.

The local residents could only swallow their saliva and stare longingly, restraining their urge to go forward.

Almost everyone stared intently, their eyes filled with longing.

The Military Academy only conducts a cleanup once a month, and this time they were lucky enough to be among the first to be affected. Although they didn't know why it started almost a week early, as long as they grabbed enough, ate sparingly, and supplemented it with other things, they could last for a long time.

Another hour passed, and the last few Giant Man-Eating Worms were blasted away, marking the end of the Purge against the Giant Man-Eating Worms.

As soon as the fighting ended, a large group of local residents, disregarding the dusty and gloomy conditions, rushed into the battlefield with bloodshot eyes.

They brought their families along, picked up the Giant Devourer Worm Meat they had targeted even before the fighting ended, and tossed them into the rusty sand vehicle behind them, busy as bees.

Before they could even catch their breath, seeing the local residents frantically grabbing the Giant Man-Eating Worms, (Class 6 6 were used to it, while others were stunned.

Cutting, carrying, looting... everyone was too busy to spare a single glance for those still on the battlefield, who hadn't had time to leave.

Up close, even in their simple, worn-out protective suits, you could see their emaciated bodies.

"..."

The scene before them made some students in Class 6 feel the same way, while others were surprised.

The stark contrast between the luxury of the Jump Point and the current situation was devastating, and everyone unconsciously fell into a long silence.

"Were they... courting death before?" Anthony frowned and whispered.

Clearly, Qin Su had anticipated this situation; otherwise, he wouldn't have reminded those of whom were willing and able to pay attention to the local residents' conditions beforehand.

Qin Su treated everyone equally, not only focusing on their safety but also on the safety of the local residents.

Sophia murmured, "When living becomes torture, life means nothing."

In this place where food is scarce, they clearly believe that it is better to die in the process of fighting for food than to starve to death.

Qin Su didn't say anything about everyone's condition for the time being. He seemed to be tidying up and sorting the weapons he had used, but in reality, his gaze swept over the largest of all the Giant Man-Eating Worms he had killed.

He killed it himself, so he naturally knew where it was.

Its long, thick body appears to have been blasted into several pieces. Because it is so large, the local residents have not been able to cut it into pieces that can be moved by manpower, and no one is approaching it for the time being.

Having locked onto the destination and determined He Muzhi's position, and then mentally estimating his own location based on aesthetics, Qin Su directly maneuvered the Warship to dock in front of the largest Giant Man-Eating Worm.

The place where the Warship is docked will block the view of some of the native inhabitants of the comic Warship Comic World after he disembarks.

And since he started his operation without any prior notice, the other students would also hesitate to approach because of the "forty-meter-long sword" he would soon be holding.

At that time, they will do the same things as him, and they will also spontaneously distance themselves from him.

The Combat Suit carries various sizes of Military Saber, which are part of the protective layer of the Combat Suit when not removed. They can be freely disassembled and reassembled as needed.

In order to have a little more intense moment later, Qin Su did not jump off the Warship.

He stood in the position he had anticipated before coming over, and methodically disassembled the Military Sabers from his Combat Suit one by one.

He planned to combine these Military Saber into a single, long blade, long enough to easily slice the behemoth before him into eight pieces.

What is the Class Monitor doing?

Qin Su's actions drew the attention of the students in Class 6) back to the classroom.

He Muzhi remained silent upon hearing this, his gaze shifting between the local residents and Qin Su, before settling on the Giant Man-Eating Worm beside Qin Su's Warship, which was several times larger than the Warship. After a few seconds, he guessed, "They probably want to decompose that Giant Man-Eating Worm that the local residents can't even break down."

Seeing the state of the local residents, his thought was to help them move, to do what they could do themselves.

Qin Su's idea was to break down the massive objects that the local residents couldn't decompose, to do what they couldn't do, and not to interfere with what they could do themselves.

"..."

Thinking of this, He Muzhi's eyes darkened slightly.

He discovered this in the last real battle; his way of thinking was completely different from Qin Su's. He was slowly changing, and it seemed that he still had a long time to change.

He hadn't even considered using Cold Weapons, let alone thinking about them.

The longer He Muzhi spent with Qin Su, the more he realized his own shortcomings and the more eager he became to emulate Qin Su.

(Class 6 can forget the cool scene an hour earlier when Qin Su swiftly struck with his Giant Man-Eating Worm and cut the Giant Man-Eating Worm in two at the last moment when it was about to attack the local residents.

Qin Su's actions of disassembling the Military Saber reminded some students in the class of what He Muzhi was thinking. Their hearts were stirred, and they silently looked down at the hidden Military Saber on their Combat Suit.

Qin Su's demeanor made them deeply understand what it means to be 'powerful yet gentle'.

"I'll go over there."

"That one doesn't look like they can cut it either, I'll give it a try."

"Can we use a weapon to blast it apart?"

"No, there are so many people here. If shrapnel hits them, and they don't have Combat Suit like us, they might get injured."

The local inhabitants who dare to venture to such places in search of food do not have enough Star Coins to acquire temperature-controlled houses Hover in the air, and the ground temperature is too high, so most of them live underground to combat the heat.

What they were wearing were all Civilian Protective Suits, used to protect against the scorching heat when going out, without the high-level protective functions of the Military Combat Suits provided by the Military Academy.

"Oh right, that's my fault for not thinking of that. But who paid attention in class about this part? How do you assemble it again?"

"The teacher uploaded the data to the group chat; you can check it using your Optical Brain."

(Class 6 students, while exchanging hushed conversations, dispersed to the Giant Man-Eating Worms that the local residents' tools could not cut into pieces. They took their Military Saber off their Combat Suit and studied how to assemble them into shapes that suited them, while also frequently glancing towards Qin Su.

Even disassembling and assembling weapons becomes part of the assessment. After receiving the Federation's 'apology,' Qin Su instinctively practiced disassembling and assembling Military Saber knives.

Amidst the occasional glances from his classmates, Qin Su moved swiftly and skillfully from disassembling to reassembling, without a moment's hesitation.

In less than a minute, a two-meter-long knife appeared in Qin Su's hand.

To facilitate cutting into chunks of flesh, the back of the blade was assembled by Qin Su with a slightly concave curve, while the blade itself was a slightly curved, convex, streamlined shape.

The sleek, long blade reflected a cold, piercing arc of light in the afternoon sun. It didn't seem out of place in the hand of Qin Su, who had grown to 1.91 meters tall, whether due to intense exercise or the location.

Qin Su's gaze seemed to sweep across the blade, inspecting every inch of it, but in reality, he was striking a pose that would appear on the comic page at a predetermined position.

In the comic book, the sun blazes brightly high in the sky, and on a silver Warship, a tall, slender man holds a long blade that gleams with a cold light.

[(Raises hand to shield eyes) My eyes are almost blinded by the light!]

Who understands the feeling of "he shines brighter than the sun" in this scene?

[It's okay, just Boss 1. (Werewolf meditating)]

[Brother Su! (Werewolf's clothes explode)]

[This perspective... it's He Muzhi's perspective again. It's like the author is looking at He Muzhi from his own perspective, He Muzhi is looking at Qin Su from his own perspective. It's too much of a 'White Moonlight' perspective.]

[This description... sounds like a pretense.]

[The gaze of the Boss Su is so cold, even when looking at a knife]

[What are you looking at? Look at me! I'm cold-resistant!]

[Seriously, I wear Nike too.]

The scene reflected in the pupils once again ignited the excitement of the 'Viewers' both on and off the screen.

After pausing for three seconds, Qin Su withdrew his gaze from the long blade gleaming with a ghostly blue light. Standing on the Warship, he lowered his eyes and scrutinized the massive, mountain-like bodies of the Giant Man-Eating Worms.

The next instant, the Warship rose into the air, and Qin Su, who was standing on the Warship, leaped down from the Warship, landing steadily on the Giant Man-Eating Worm with a bent-over, half-squatting posture, one hand on the ground, and the other hand holding the hilt of his sword.

Less than a second after landing, Qin Su immediately stood up gracefully, his toes pointing outwards, and raised his right hand holding the knife.

Swish, swish, swish...

The long blade that Qin Su held high in his hand fell and drew a dazzling arc of light across the Giant Man-Eating Worm, leaving the students of Class 6 who were still studying the Military Saber and the local residents in awe.

In an instant, the enormous Giant Man-Eating Worm's body was torn to pieces, making it so that local residents could carry it by hand.

Qin Su's familiarity with the structures of various Zerg made disassembly a breeze.

Moreover, apart from its teeth, the Giant Man-Eating Worm has no hard bones from head to toe; it is all cartilage.

To save effort, he avoided the cartilaginous part of the Giant Man-Eating Worm when he chopped, essentially only cutting into the firm flesh. The Interstellar Saber truly achieved the level of cutting through iron like mud, making it much easier to chop than the Red-Winged Pheasant Crows.

Having practiced extensively on the Red-Winged Pheasant Crows, Qin Su was now highly experienced and could slash with one hand with ease and skill.

The scene before their eyes made the students of Class 6) speed up their work, striving to live up to the title of "Qin Su's classmate".

[Giant Man-Eating Worm: Is this... is this some kind of big shot who's going to come and chop me down?]

Just when I thought Su Bao was already incredibly handsome, even more stunning scenes awaited me.

[Incredibly high damage, truly a one-hit kill]

[This really hit me right in the heart.]

If Pinduoduo's "cut-the-price" model were like this, I could bankrupt Pinduoduo!

[I'm so powerful now, I can just close my eyes and faint.]

The thought of such a cool, arrogant, and domineering Boss 1 helping the local residents makes my eyes water.

[Everyone spontaneously helped out, the best Class 6 in the world, sob sob sob]

The gazes around him gradually shifted away from him, especially from He Muzhi, who was now seriously studying the assembly of the Military Saber.

Taking advantage of the reduced attention on him, Qin Su appeared to be cosplaying as a ruthless, disintegrating Giant Man-Eating Worm machine.

In reality, he was using the pretext of dismantling the meat to stack the chopped pieces into a wall of flesh to block everyone's view, preventing He Muzhi from looking at him and ensuring that no one behind him could see him cutting off the Giant Man-Eating Worm's 'Gland' and hiding it in the Spatial Refrigeration and Preservation Device.

As the Meat Mountain grew higher and higher, enough to block the view of everyone, Qin Su finally made his move on his target: the head of the Giant Man-Eating Worm.

After Qin Su carefully cut off the part of the largest Giant Man-Eating Worm that emitted Pheromones, he quietly placed it into the Spatial Refrigeration and Preservation Device.

After the entire Giant Man-Eating Worm was divided up, Qin Su's right hand, holding the long blade, trembled slightly.

Although cutting down the Giant Man-Eating Worm is as easy as chopping vegetables compared to the Red-Winged Pheasant Crows, which not only attacks bones but is also incredibly tough, even the simplest task will make your hands feel sore after repeating it for a long time.

Especially when using only one hand, where all the force is borne by that hand.

Alas...

He cannot switch hands.

After switching hands, when he reappears in the Viewers's sight, people will speculate that 'his hand was tired, so he switched hands.'

'Whose big boss gets tired of using their hands?'

That's definitely not the case.

Having already slain the largest Giant Man-Eating Worm, Qin Su couldn't afford to disappear from the Viewers's sight for too long. He briefly rested his right hand for a few seconds before maneuvering the Warship to the center of the Giant Devourer Worm Meat to meet him.

Standing atop the Warship, Qin Su reappeared in everyone's sight as he took to the air. He glanced around and walked towards He Muzhi's direction.

There was no other reason; it was simply because He Muzhi had chosen the second largest Giant Man-Eating Worm and was wielding a large sword with both hands, hacking away wildly with brute force and no skill.

Qin Su only needed to glance at the cross-section of He Muzhi's cuts to know that he had struck cartilage with every stroke.

"..."

This is the first time I've met someone even more unlucky than him.

Although... he relied on the principle that 'knowledge is power' and memorized the entire Zerg anatomy to achieve the 'luck' of avoiding cartilage and striking flesh with every strike.

But Qin Su didn't care. He 'smuggled' himself into 'Europe' using his own abilities, so why shouldn't it be considered that he was lucky?

"Class Monitor, you've arrived..."

Qin Su suddenly appeared before him, wielding a long, gleaming blade. He Muzhi looked embarrassed and paused his movements.

Oh no! Qin Su Gaze at the piece of meat he was chopping. Could it be that he thought he was being slow?

But it was his first time using Military Saber for something like this, and he had no experience whatsoever.

He didn't know what was going on, but he clearly saw that the other students could cut into the flesh. He had observed that Qin Su's cuts also cut into the flesh, but he was the only one whose cuts went straight to the bone.

Cartilage is still bone, so making him do something 'thankless' is pointless.

[This is what happens to unlucky, Unlucky One herders, hahaha]

[I have to say, Qin Su is really lucky.]

[In this situation, Lucky One or Unlucky One?]

"Hmm." Qin Su gave a light "hmm," and said to He Muzhi, "Go help Raymond, I'll handle things here."

As a 'big boss,' taking a break early is impossible for him. He can only finish cutting as quickly as possible and end it all as soon as possible so that his right hand can secretly rest.

It's rare for Qin Su to be Lucky One, and while talking to He Muzhi, he didn't forget to mentally give a thumbs up to the comments praising him as the Lucky One.

"Okay." He Muzhi nodded, quickly jumped onto the Warship that was hovering beside him, and flew towards Raymond's location.

He Muzhi left, Qin Su seized the opportunity and quickly started scrambling around.

He Muzhi hadn't been fighting at Raymond's location for long when Raymond nudged his arm, gesturing for him to look towards Qin Su's location. He Muzhi looked over and saw that Qin Su had already moved from where he had been to where Sophia was.

"... Terrifyingly strong." He Muzhi exclaimed sincerely.

Raymond nodded silently. Although they offered to help, it took them some time to get the Military Sabers ready, and their unfamiliarity with the Military Sabers made it even more difficult for them to use them.

"Hurry up and chop. Although Qin Su can't possibly get tired, we can't justify letting Qin Su suffer silently for us." He Muzhi said, looking down intently at the pieces of meat in front of him.

Five minutes later, all the massive pieces of meat on site had been chopped into manageable pieces.

Within those five minutes, wherever Qin Su passed, Meat Mountain crumbled and collapsed.

[Amazing, Brother Su handled 70% of the meat!]

[When the Boss 1 gets going, he becomes ruthless and forgets all about emotions and fatigue.]

[What do you mean 'forgotten'? It's obvious that the word 'tired' doesn't exist in this Boss 1's dictionary.]

"..."

Qin Su sighed inwardly.

There's no such thing as not getting tired; he's just pushing himself to the limit.

Thankfully, it's all done.

Qin Su leaped off the Warship, his feet landing on the sand. He lowered his eyes, his expression indifferent, and disassembled the blades, tucking them into his Combat Suit.

In the end, Qin Su left only a palm-sized Dagger in his left hand and strode toward the nearest Giant Devourer Worm Meat.

The right hand has 'retired successfully,' and it's the left hand's turn to take the hit.

The other students in Class 6 thought that after Qin Su finished cutting, he would lead them to help the local residents move the Giant Devourer Worm Meat.

Unexpectedly, Qin Su turned and left without even blinking, showing absolutely no intention of helping them.

Qin Su's ability to switch between warmth and coldness left them completely baffled.

"They've all been cut down, what do we do now? I completely don't understand what the Class Monitor means."

"I don't know, the Class Monitor didn't give us any instructions, we're pretty confused."

"To be honest, we worked so hard cutting down the trees up there, and they haven't said a single word of thanks. They're just grabbing at it even more like madmen. I feel really strange about it."

"Hey, try to understand. These are necessities for them to continue living. It's normal that they don't have time to bother with us. Put yourself in their shoes; if I were in their situation, I would do the same."

"That's true..."

He Muzhi's gaze fell on the local residents. If Qin Su hadn't been there, he would have readily offered his help, believing that he could do whatever he could.

Qin Su's actions made him hesitate, and he did not act rashly. His gaze lingered between Qin Su and the local residents.

The local residents paid no attention to the movements of the students in Class 6), not even glancing at them, their eyes filled with excitement that "this time they can finally take all the meat without wasting it."

[Don't you know how to see things through to the end? Why did you give up halfway through doing a good deed? Look, you've even corrupted He Muzhi (covers mouth and chuckles). Wasn't He Muzhi always the first to rush in this situation before? It's true what they say, you become like those you associate with.]

[(Rolls eyes) Do you want me to feed you? You're not crippled.]

[Helping is a favor, not helping is not our duty. Please be aware.]

[Why did you report me? This is completely unwarranted. From now on, I'll be the first to disagree if anyone says no one likes He Wenyuan. That's why I got so angry and reported your entire homepage.]

Don't try to guess what's on Brother Su's mind.

I figured they have hands and feet of their own.

[Damn, how did I get reported too?]

Qin Su knew his classmates were puzzled by his behavior, but he didn't offer any explanation.

The local residents didn't have the weapons to cut up the large pieces of the Giant Man-Eating Worm, so he would help them break it down.

Moving things that they could do themselves was none of his business.

It won't take long to chop it into small pieces with him around, but moving it will be much more strenuous. His right hand needs a rest, and the students need it even more. There's another tough battle to fight tomorrow.

"Didn't you say you wanted to eat barbecue?" Qin Su said indifferently, his back to the students. "Aren't you coming over here?"
