Light Body Technique

Everyone chatted enthusiastically about their weapon choices.

Only Chen Ye and Qian Fugui had no one to talk to.

Chen Ye looked indifferent.

A mature soul resided within his youthful body, allowing him to ignore such things.

Qian Fugui could not.

He looked deeply dejected.

In the end, his roommates Zhao Zheng and Lu Yong could not stand it any longer and came over to ask them.

"Chen Ye, Fugui, have you decided what weapons you want?" Zhao Zheng asked.

Chen Ye thought for a moment and said, "A saber, I guess!"

Qian Fugui followed up, "Then I'll choose a sword!"

Suddenly, laughter came from nearby. "Qian Fugui, I suggest you go to the hospital for a heart transplant first. Otherwise, with your talent, it'll be too dangerous for you to enter a secret realm. You'll attract monsters wherever you go."

It had actually just been a joke.

However, Qian Fugui had suffered one blow after another and was extremely sensitive now. The moment he heard that, he exploded.

"You bastard, say that again!"

Qian Fugui stood up, his eyes red as he glared furiously at the student, looking ready to fight at any moment.

The student who had spoken was clearly stunned. Awkwardly, he said, "I was just joking... Forget it, I apologize. Sorry, Qian Fugui. I promise I'll never say another word about anything related to you."

The guy was clever. With a single sentence, he made Qian Fugui seem unable to take a joke, leaving Qian Fugui in an impossible position.

Qian Fugui took several heavy breaths, then packed up his things and left the classroom.

It left Zhao Zheng and the others somewhat embarrassed.

Watching Qian Fugui's retreating back, Chen Ye shook his head slightly.

From the moment that little fatty had chosen to match with King, tragedy had already been inevitable.

Qian Fugui had chosen this road himself. He could only walk it to the end on his own!

After class.

The teacher created a class group chat, added all the students, and then sent out a weapon catalog.

This was a catalog of all alloy weapons. Everyone should take a look first. If there is nothing satisfactory, you can also design your own weapon blueprint and have one custom-made. However, custom orders take a long time, so I do not recommend it.

Received!

Received!

The students all replied that they had received it.

Teacher Liu: Oh, and a reminder: do not post any course content online. AI is extremely advanced now, and no matter how anonymously you post it, you can be traced. Once caught, you'll get at least three years. Content related to secret realms will also be deleted instantly if posted online. Don't do anything stupid.

Understood!

Understood!

Chen Ye downloaded the weapon catalog file Teacher Liu had sent. It was surprisingly a whole gigabyte in size.

When he opened it, he found more than a thousand types of weapons.

Every weapon came with high-definition 3D images, along with detailed descriptions of its dimensions, weight, load-bearing capacity, and destructive power.

No wonder the file was so large.

He browsed through it casually before finally choosing an alloy saber and sending his selection to Teacher Liu.

Although he had selected a weapon, Chen Ye might not necessarily use it. He was only choosing one for appearances' sake, so as not to make others suspicious.

When the secret realm opened, Chen Ye would definitely bring some glutinous rice and a peachwood sword to test whether the zombies in the secret realm feared such things like they did in movies and television dramas.

This experiment was extremely important.

Chen Ye suspected that perhaps all the monsters in the secret realms were things he recognized.

If that was really the case.

Then he would gain an advantage in the secret realms that others could scarcely imagine.

Even though Chen Ye already possessed the Bald Demon King's physique.

Who would ever complain about having too many advantages?

Besides, his Saitama Physique could not increase his mental attribute, and he could make up for that through the secret realms.

At noon.

The four dormmates gathered in the cafeteria for lunch.

Zhao Zheng suddenly said, "Chen Ye, Fugui, and Lu Yong, if you don't have anything to do this afternoon, how about coming to the library with me? I want to choose a martial art. Help me take a look and give me some advice."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yong immediately said, "Brother Zhao, you must be joking. With talents like ours, how could we possibly give advice to a heaven's chosen one like you?"

Chen Ye shook his head slightly.

Although Lu Yong loved flattering people, his social awareness was still somewhat lacking.

Zhao Zheng's suggestion clearly meant that he wanted to bring his roommates along to study with him.

Chen Ye guessed that Teacher Liu must have said something to Zhao Zheng after keeping him behind last time, prompting a heaven's chosen one like Zhao Zheng to take the initiative to approach "poor students" like them.

It had to be said that Chen Ye quite admired Zhao Zheng's way of handling people and situations.

Although those S-class talent holders in the class also chatted and laughed with their classmates, they could not hide the pride in their eyes when facing A-class talent holders.

Some could not even be bothered to hide it, openly acting superior.

Only a few S-class talent holders truly regarded everyone as classmates.

Zhao Zheng was one of those few.

"When three people walk together, one of them is bound to be my teacher," Zhao Zheng said with a smile. "It'd still be good to have you help me weigh my options."

Seeing Zhao Zheng insist, Lu Yong finally understood and agreed. "Since Brother Zhao has put it that way, then I'm definitely going."

Chen Ye thought about it. He really had nothing to do that afternoon, and he was also somewhat curious about Psychic University's library. It would not hurt to take a look.

"Then let's go!"

Qian Fugui, the remaining one, naturally would not spoil the mood at a time like this.

Thus, the group headed toward the library.

When they arrived, they discovered that quite a few people were already there.

Moreover, there were no books in the library. Instead, it was filled with personal computers, none of which were connected to the internet.

Although there was no internet access, the computers stored a massive amount of material, more than enough for freshmen to study.

The four found seats and began looking up information.

Chen Ye had originally wanted to see what monsters were in Secret Realm 2, but it showed that access had not been granted...

Bored, he saw Zhao Zheng researching martial arts, so he simply opened the relevant materials and read along.

There were many varieties of traditional martial arts in this world.

Since the emergence of hero talents, traditional martial arts had developed rapidly. After several decades, countless diverse martial arts had evolved!

"Huh?"

As Chen Ye flipped through the materials, he suddenly found an interesting martial art.

This martial art was called the "Light Body Technique"!

After cultivating it, one could control their muscles and compress their bones, making their body smaller in order to pass through certain extreme environments.

It was somewhat similar to bone-shrinking techniques.

Or rather, this Light Body Technique had been adapted from bone-shrinking techniques. It was an enhanced version, far more sophisticated than the original.

Once mastered, it could make a person much shorter without affecting their strength or mobility.

Most importantly, this technique was easy to learn, and those with well-developed muscles could master it easily.

Chen Ye's muscles did not look impressive, but they were enough to crush countless people!

He felt that he really needed to learn this martial art...

(To all my dear readers: the author has traveled back from more than a hundred chapters in the future. I wrote the alternate-identity plot because I must have eaten shit and had a brain lapse, and I now deeply regret it... Unfortunately, I already wrote a later plot involving it, so it's hard to change. Please bear with it. This idiotic trope will not appear again later. I'll arrange for the protagonist to become unable to use this ability—the reason being that as his strength grows, the density of his muscles and bones will become greater and greater, making them impossible to compress!)

(I'm still half a newcomer, and I made quite a few mistakes in the early stages of this book. But it only gets more exciting later on. Readers who have continued have all said the pacing becomes incredible, and this book's results are getting better and better. Please patiently keep reading...)
