Let's Turn Up the Heat for the Students of the High Martial World!

Xu Jie acted as if nothing had happened, arriving at the school cafeteria and ordering four dishes and one soup.

Two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes!

There weren't many people in the cafeteria at this time; the students were likely still on the field watching the practical combat tests.

Xu Jie welcomed the peace and quiet, eating his meal while sorting through the fragmented memories left by his predecessor.

He hadn't had the time to do this before.

Now that he had the time, the first thing he needed to do was understand the rules of this world and the specific situation he was in.

Or rather, Xu Jie wanted to know what means he could use to get revenge on the Xu siblings!

They dared to openly try to kill him; if he didn't kill them, should he wait for the New Year?

As time passed, Xu Jie, eating mechanically, gradually came to understand the situation in this High Martial World.

In general, it was incredibly brutal!

Unlike conventional High Martial Worlds, the High Martial World Xu Jie was in was a true embodiment of "the strong prey on the weak"!

The strong took everything, and the weak had only death as their fate!

According to Xia Country's laws, Martial Artists had very few restrictions, except for not being allowed to kill people in the streets within city limits.

The various events that happened in martial arts universities were a testament to this.

Bullying by senior students against junior students was quite common in schools.

The school authorities wouldn't intervene even if they knew about it, because there were far more brutal things happening within the school.

For example, the monthly practical combat tests, where opponents were chosen by lottery, and could be either wild demons or fellow students from the same year.

Countless students died at the hands of demons or were accidentally killed during these practical combat tests.

On average, out of a thousand students, fewer than five hundred managed to survive their four years of university.

Among them, 30%-40% died directly, and about 10% were left disabled.

Just like how Xu Jie had just crippled those three senior students, the school authorities wouldn't say anything if they found out.

The strong ruled, the weak perished; it was that simple and crude!

In addition to the monthly practical combat tests, the school also organized senior students to hunt demons in the wild or act as mercenaries, taking on various commissions, with extremely high casualty rates.

Within the school, there was also a ranking board that divided the top hundred students based on their strength, with large amounts of resources provided monthly.

Students of any year could challenge those on the ranking board.

The winner would replace the loser, and could even kill the loser during the challenge, taking everything!

For students of martial arts universities to graduate, they had to undergo an assessment arranged by the school during their senior year, which was equivalent to an internship in the wild.

Then, they had to achieve a ranking on the board to be eligible for successful graduation.

The difficulty of this could be imagined!

Therefore, the number of students who truly graduated from a martial arts university each year was very small.

Graduates could join higher institutions for further studies, and after graduation, they would be directly assigned high-ranking positions, becoming people above others.

They could either wield great power and govern a region, or conquer outer territories and become famous throughout the world!

Those who couldn't graduate would, like Xu Jie's deceased father, become mercenaries or bodyguards for the wealthy.

The reason this High Martial World was so brutal was primarily due to the invasion from other realms, which were constantly encroaching upon this world.

The divine beings from the outer realms were watching covetously, and to protect themselves from being invaded by alien races, the only way was to turn the entire world into a crucible, using an extremely cruel method to quickly and efficiently screen out Martial Artists.

To put it bluntly, compared to the dangers of the outer realms, everything happening in the university was child's play!

Seeing the memory fragments up to this point, Xu Jie finally understood why this world was so unique.

Of course, he felt he had come to the right place!

Martial Artists!

Since I already have extraordinary combat power, why should I be restricted by various treaties and clauses?

Why would I risk my life practicing martial arts so hard?

Wouldn't it be more comfortable to hide in the rear like the general populace, living one day at a time?

In fact, Xu Jie even felt that the rules of this world were not cruel enough!

At least there were some order and rules, like Martial Artists not being allowed to kill people in the streets.

Compared to the Southeast Asian environment he came from in his previous life, this High Martial World was nothing.

That place in Southeast Asia was truly and utterly chaotic!

You could die at any second, and you couldn't trust anyone but yourself!

It seemed he needed to "intensify" things for the students in the school!

What kind of pressure could be generated by sluggish, dawdling cultivation?

I already have a cheat, so why should I play by the rules with you bunch of trash?

What good is this system then?

After transmigrating to the High Martial World and gaining the Life-Sacrifice System, Xu Jie's first thought was to conquer everything he could see!

Wealth, power, women, strength – he wanted it all!

Yes, he was that vulgar. Xu Jie was that kind of person, living for the moment.

A desperate man lived each day as if it were his last!

As for the Xu siblings…

Honestly, Xu Jie didn't fully understand what the deal was with the inheritance that the dog-like mother and son duo mentioned.

To be precise, his previous self hadn't figured it out!

After his cheap father died, he only left Xu Jie a few clothes, a registered credit card, and an ordinary battle saber.

That was it!

If the Xu siblings wanted his inheritance, Xu Jie wanted to dig out of those two what his father had actually left him!

You have to understand, Jincheng City, where Xu Jie was located, was in Yue Prefecture, on the southeastern edge of Xia Country.

And the Xu siblings had traveled thousands of miles from Central Prefecture of Xia Country.

Such a long distance, yet the Xu family not only came, but the two siblings even transferred to Jinwu University.

This showed that Xu Jie's father must have left behind something extremely precious.

Xu Jie had also figured out how to get revenge on the Xu sisters.

Didn't the school have a ranking board?

The Xu siblings would be on it!

Ranking battles could be lethal, with a high casualty rate.

Xu Jie planned to use the rules of the ranking battles to personally kill the Xu siblings!

He was naturally vengeful. If those two wanted him dead, letting them live another second made him uncomfortable!

Of course, one had to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. The most important thing for Xu Jie right now was to use the system to quickly improve his strength.

After finishing his meal, Xu Jie subconsciously reached into his pocket and felt around carefully.

Which bastard had swiped his cigarettes again?

Uh…

Xu Jie quickly realized that there was no tobacco in this world, so he couldn't have his post-meal cigarette.

This was truly frustrating!

Would he not even be able to have a smoke after… you know… later on?

This life…

Helplessly, Xu Jie could only bring up the system to check his status panel.
