The sun rose and the moon set; time flowed on.

Three months slipped away quietly, rewarding those who cherished them.

Inside Lingyun Library, Su Hao turned the last page of Mysteries of the Elite Warrior's Body. There was only one sentence on it: "All secrets lie within our bodies. One day, we will truly come to know ourselves."

Su Hao closed the book and returned it to its place.

He glanced at the girl he had frightened into tears three months ago and found her holding a book, reading quietly. Sunlight shone through the window, its soft reflection falling across her face, making her look as tranquil as an angel.

Su Hao liked the atmosphere of Lingyun Library, so he came there to read every afternoon.

Every day, he saw this girl in Lingyun Library. She looked extremely frail, and from her companions, he had learned that her name was Xiao Mei.

What Su Hao found interesting was that she had been frightened into tears by him one day, yet the very next day, when she saw him in the library, she still dared to come in and read. He truly did not know whether to call this little girl brave or timid.

One thing was certain: Xiao Mei was someone who liked books. In other words, she liked knowledge. For that alone, Su Hao felt a trace of fondness toward her.

That fondness had nothing to do with romantic feelings or whether the girl was pretty. It came from Su Hao's admiration for Scholars and his respect for those who passed on and explored knowledge.

People like that were perhaps part of the reason this world could be so beautiful.

It was foreseeable that many years from now, this timid little girl, Xiao Mei, would become a Scholar respected by the world.

Su Hao returned to his seat, closed his eyes, and sent his consciousness into Marble Space, opening the body status list.

"Age: 10 years and 4 months; Height: 153 cm; Weight: 53 kg; Physical condition: Healthy; Level: High-Rank Elite Warrior; Elite Blood Qi: 40; Weapon mastery: Basic Blade Technique (Mastery); Basic Combat (Mastery); Basic Shield (Mastery); Basic Battle Axe (Proficient); Basic War Hammer (Proficient); Basic combat skills: Ascending Fist (Ultimate Technique); Shield Bash (Mastery); Horizontal Slash (Mastery); Tricky Stab (Proficient); Hard Force Fist (Proficient); Charge (Proficient); Leaping Cleave (Proficient); Basic Footwork: Basic Footwork (Mastery); Sliding Shadow Step (Mastery); Long-Distance Raid (Proficient); Leap (Proficient); Variable Control: Blood Qi Strengthening Function (Mastery), Muscle Strengthening Function (Mastery), Bone Strengthening Function (Proficient), Viscera Strengthening Function (Not Started), Five Senses Strengthening Function (Not Started). "

Over the past half year, the greatest change had been his height. Not only had he broken through 1.5 meters, he had shot up another 3 centimeters. Worth celebrating. At this encouraging pace, he believed that in a few more years, he would reach 1.8 meters and become a truly tall, rich, handsome man.

As his body rapidly grew taller, his physical strength had already surpassed the bounds of ordinary humans, reaching a level even he could not imagine.

For that, he had Variable Control to thank.

With the help of the Muscle Strengthening Function and Bone Strengthening Function, his body seemed to have been covered in several layers of cowhide, becoming extraordinarily sturdy. His bones were as strong as refined steel. If someone stabbed him with a knife, the most likely outcome would be for the blade to get caught in his muscles, unable to penetrate any deeper.

His powerful body gave Su Hao an unparalleled sense of security.

He was brimming with confidence that he would successfully live to adulthood in this life.

As long as he did not act recklessly, with his strength, no one could kill him easily. As for the illness that had taken him away in his previous life, he was not worried either. Little Light monitored his physical condition at all times, so even if something went wrong, it could be discovered early. Besides, judging by his current powerful body, even terminal illnesses would have to take a detour around him.

The strength of his body had driven a huge surge in his Blood Qi, rising from 31 points to 40. It could be said that his raw strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.

As for the skills below, Su Hao had made a simple classification to make it easier to add new skills later.

Of all these skills, Su Hao liked "Ascending Fist" the most. It was a fist technique that could send someone flying with one punch without inflicting severe injuries.

It was a divine skill for brawls. Through all the big and small fights over the past half year, Su Hao had played this Ascending Fist technique to perfection.

Just as Su Hao was happily admiring his basic data, Little Fatty suddenly rushed into the library and found him. "Xiangwu, Qing Qing is in trouble!"

"What?" Su Hao was startled. He immediately stood and ran outside. "Take me there, quickly. Explain as we go."

Little Fatty had grown somewhat thinner than before, and his face was bruised and swollen, making it clear that he had been beaten. He ran half a step ahead of Su Hao to lead the way, explaining as he went, "Qing Qing got tangled up with a Level 3 Student. That Level 3 Student is blocking the entrance to Qing Qing's dormitory right now."

Su Hao asked, "Where's Qing Qing?"

Little Fatty said, "She should be fine for now, but after a while, that might not be the case."

Su Hao frowned. "Aren't Level 3 Students stationed in the wilderness? Why are they in the Academy? What exactly happened? Tell me everything from the start."

Little Fatty looked at Su Hao strangely. "The Level 3 Students have been back for days. How did you not know?"

Su Hao said, "Get to the point."

Little Fatty smiled awkwardly. "It happened like this. Three days ago, Qing Qing accidentally knocked over a Level 3 Student's meal tray in the cafeteria and spilled all his food on the floor. Well, no matter how Qing Qing apologized, that guy latched onto her. He said that as long as Qing Qing agreed to be his girlfriend, he could forgive her."

"Qing Qing refused him on the spot. They made a fuss for a long time before that group finally left. We thought it was over, but who knew they would come again today? They even went straight to Qing Qing's dormitory and blocked her inside. They're still there, refusing to leave until she agrees. What kind of nonsense is this?"

As he spoke, he pointed at his own face. "I only went up to try and talk them down."

By then, Su Hao roughly understood what had happened.

What meal tray getting knocked over? It had definitely been deliberate. How could a Martial Artist let a little girl get close so easily, much less knock the meal tray from his hands?

A burst of fury suddenly erupted from the bottom of his heart, impossible to suppress.

It was understandable for these youths to admire the opposite sex, but such childish methods were enough to make anyone furious.

Everyone had the right to pursue love, but only when both parties were willing. If someone used despicable methods or overwhelming strength to force the other person to accept, that was intolerable.

Very soon, Su Hao and Little Fatty arrived outside He Qingqing's dormitory. The area in front of it was packed with people. Most had come to watch the fun. A small portion were angry, but their own strength did not match the justice in their hearts, so they could only stand by and watch anxiously.

Several youths stood scattered before the dormitory door, blocking the entrance completely.

A hedgehog-haired youth with narrow eyes and relatively fashionable clothes shouted toward the dormitory, "Qing Qing, just agree to it. You only need to be my girlfriend for one month."

"Ha ha ha!" The surrounding youths laughed wildly. In the current Academy, they Level 3 Students were the strongest. No one could control them, and no one dared to.

When He Qingqing inside the dormitory gave no response, the hedgehog-haired youth continued, "Qing Qing, I don't want to use force on you. Just agree to it."

At that moment, Little Fatty and Su Hao pushed into the crowd.

Little Fatty immediately pointed at the hedgehog-haired youth and shouted, "Xiangwu, it's him!"

Xiangwu? Violent Flyer Wu Xiangwu?

Most of the people gathered around were First-Level and Second-Level Students. The moment they heard the name Xiangwu, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Hm?" The hedgehog-haired youth and his companions turned in confusion to look at the two people who had suddenly appeared. He recognized one of them—he had just kicked him—but who was the other? He had never seen him before.

Without a word, Su Hao's Elite Blood Qi flooded his entire body in an instant. He stomped the ground, and his body shot forward.

"Sliding Shadow Step!"

His fist smashed into the hedgehog-haired youth's cheekbone.

"Crack!"

The sound of bone shattering rang across the entire scene. Before the hedgehog-haired youth could react, he was sent flying by a single blow, sailing over the crowd before crashing to the ground and instantly losing consciousness.

It was not over yet. The hedgehog-haired youth's companions quickly followed in his footsteps, rolling on the ground and howling in pain.

When everyone was lying on the ground, Su Hao pointed at the hedgehog-haired youth and asked Little Fatty, "Is he the mastermind?"

Little Fatty nodded. "It's him."

Su Hao walked over and kicked him between the legs.

"Splat!"

Everyone heard the sound of something shattering. They all sucked in a cold breath and instinctively covered their own crotches as they retreated two steps.

To Su Hao, evil was not divided by age, only by the person. Even if the other party was a youth, doing evil made him an evil person. Su Hao had never been softhearted toward evil people.

Su Hao withdrew his foot and said to Little Fatty, "Little Fatty, take me somewhere with lots of Level 3 Students."

"Ah?" Little Fatty froze at first, then suddenly remembered how Su Hao had single-handedly taken on all the Second-Level Students a few months ago. He instantly understood Su Hao's intentions.

He hurriedly said excitedly, "Xiangwu, I know where they are. Follow me."

At that moment, a figure ran wildly out of the dormitory and threw herself directly into Su Hao's arms. It was He Qingqing.

Su Hao held He Qingqing in his arms and gently patted her back.

The girl's body trembled slightly. Her fear had yet to fade, and tears soon soaked the clothes over his chest.

After He Qingqing's emotions stabilized, Su Hao pushed her away and said, "Qing Qing, wait here for now. I'll be back soon."

He Qingqing immediately grabbed Su Hao's hand. "I'm going too!"

Su Hao considered it, then nodded. Turning to Little Fatty, he said, "Little Fatty, lead the way."

And so, Little Fatty led the way in front, while a huge crowd of onlookers followed behind Su Hao.

Before long, the entire Academy boiled over.

No matter who it was, everyone received the latest news: First-Level Student and super Genius Wu Xiangwu was on his way to take on all the Level 3 Students.

Soon, wave after wave of Students rushed toward the Level 3 Students' camp.
