"What just happened?"
The students watching were dumbfounded.
What had they just seen?
Lin Tian had kicked Liu Qing flying with one kick!
"Wasn't Liu Qing at the Martial Dao First Layer mid-stage? How could Lin Tian have kicked her away?"
They could not understand why Liu Qing, a Martial Dao First Layer mid-stage martial artist, had been sent flying by Lin Tian, who was not even a martial artist.
Liu Qing herself was even more bewildered. She did not understand what had just happened either.
It took her quite a while to come back to her senses.
"Ah! Lin Tian, how dare you kick me!"
She immediately sprang to her feet and charged at Lin Tian.
Liu Qing had gone mad. Lin Tian had actually kicked her flying and humiliated her in public. That felt worse than killing her.
Just as Liu Qing was about to strike Lin Tian, a figure appeared and blocked her attack.
"Hello, Director!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, the students gathered nearby hurriedly called out respectfully.
"What happened?"
"Why are you fighting in the corridor?"
A middle-aged man stood between Lin Tian and Liu Qing, anger faintly showing on his face. He was Wang Yue, the dean of discipline at Second Middle School.
His attention was directed at Liu Qing.
The moment the crazed Liu Qing saw Wang Yue arrive, she instantly calmed down.
"Director, Lin Tian kicked me first. He sent me flying with one kick."
Liu Qing hurriedly complained.
Second Middle School was most famous for its strict discipline. Once someone was found violating school rules, regardless of their status, they would receive a major demerit at best and be expelled outright at worst.
"You said Lin Tian kicked you flying with one kick?"
Upon hearing Liu Qing's account, Wang Yue looked at her as though she were a fool.
A Martial Dao First Layer mid-stage martial artist had been kicked flying by someone who had not even become a martial artist. Who would believe that?
"Director, it's true! If you don't believe me, ask the others."
Seeing that Wang Yue did not believe her, Liu Qing anxiously stamped her feet and pointed at the surrounding students.
Wang Yue then turned to look at the other students.
"Is this true?"
The students he looked at nodded vigorously. No one had expected it to be real.
Seeing that it was indeed true, Wang Yue sighed inwardly.
"Let this matter end here. Get yourselves ready for the final physical assessment of high school. Blood Qi Pills will be distributed to you then."
He did not pursue Lin Tian's responsibility and shifted the topic to the physical assessment.
Lin Tian was the most regrettable student at Second Middle School. For the sake of his so-called childhood sweetheart, Liu Qing, he had fallen from a genius into trash.
And now, that childhood sweetheart was kicking him when he was down. How tragic.
"Director, aren't you going to punish Lin Tian?"
Seeing Wang Yue about to leave, Liu Qing was stunned.
Wang Yue ignored Liu Qing's cry.
If anyone deserved punishment, it was undoubtedly Liu Qing. She had ruined a genius who could have competed for provincial rankings.
Had Lin Tian cultivated step by step, he would at worst be a Martial Dao First Layer late-stage martial artist by now. He might even have had a sliver of hope of breaking through to the Martial Dao Second Layer.
Liu Qing was dumbfounded. Wang Yue had simply left without punishing Lin Tian.
She could only stiffly turn around and glare viciously at Lin Tian.
"Lin Tian, during this physical assessment, I'll let you know what despair is, you piece of trash!"
Liu Qing had already thought of how she would humiliate Lin Tian.
"Idiot."
Lin Tian casually said one word and walked straight into the classroom.
"Lin Tian!"
Liu Qing shrieked again.
After Lin Tian entered the classroom, the class monitor, Mu Ziwei, hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Lin Tian, given your current situation, graduating from high school may be a little difficult. Why not ask the dean of discipline to let you stay at school? Even doing odd jobs would be fine."
On Blue Star, people who were not even martial artists found it difficult to survive in society. They could only do the bitterest and most exhausting work.
Moreover, Lin Tian had offended quite a few people during high school because of Liu Qing. His status as a high school student provided him with a layer of protection, but once he lost that status, the fate awaiting him would be miserable.
"Thank you, Class Monitor, but I don't think I'll need that."
Lin Tian smiled and politely declined.
He knew Mu Ziwei meant well, but he had already awakened the system. Invincibility was his goal.
"Alright."
Seeing Lin Tian insist, Mu Ziwei sighed softly inwardly.
An hour later, the final physical assessment began on the grounds of Second Middle School.
"Students, this is your final physical assessment at school. The next one will be the college entrance examination."
"I hope you leave no regrets behind."
After Wang Yue, the dean of discipline, finished speaking on the stage, he stepped aside.
This was a tradition at Second Middle School. All teachers had to come observe the final physical assessment.
After the dean of discipline finished speaking, the principal of Second Middle School came out and spoke for a while as well. Then the final physical assessment began.
"Our Second Middle School has not produced a student capable of entering the provincial rankings for many years. The gap between us and First Middle School is growing wider and wider."
In the teachers' seating area, the principal sighed helplessly.
"Originally, we had one."
After hearing this, Wang Yue spoke quietly, and the two of them glanced toward Lin Tian.
"Lin Tian has been an orphan all his life and never had a true friend he could open his heart to. Liu Qing deceived him for three years. It's already too late for him to wake up now."
Second Middle School's physical assessments always began with Class One.
As one high Vitality Value after another appeared for Class One, cries of surprise immediately rang out.

"Class One really is strong. Even the lowest Vitality Value is already two hundred, reaching the Martial Dao First Layer mid-stage."
The many students could not stop marveling.
This was Class One, the class where Second Middle School's top students gathered.
But when they saw the Vitality Values of these students halfway through, the teachers of Second Middle School were filled with disappointment.
The gap between them and First Middle School was simply too great.
"Next, Li Ming!"
When the teacher called his name, Li Ming walked from Class One to the stage.
He did not immediately undergo the Vitality Value test. Instead, he looked toward Class Two—more precisely, toward Lin Tian.
Then he revealed a cruel smile.
"Lin Tian, do you remember what I said?"
"You are the most worthless kind of bug, fit only to survive in the filthiest places."
"You don't have much time left. Run. Run to some filthy corner where no one knows you, and never let me see you again."
"Otherwise, I'll crush you to death with my own hands!"
"Li Ming, shut up!"
Hearing this, Wang Yue immediately stood and shouted angrily.
Li Ming did not care in the slightest about Wang Yue's rebuke. Instead, he continued.
"Bug, watch carefully. This is a level you will never reach!"
With that, Li Ming walked to the testing platform. Then three digits appeared.
250!
"250 points of vitality!"
Seeing Li Ming's Vitality Value, everyone was shocked. This was currently the highest Vitality Value in Second Middle School.
No wonder Li Ming dared to disregard the dean of discipline's words. A Vitality Value of 250 truly gave him that kind of strength.
"Director, was there anything wrong with what I said?"
Li Ming faced Wang Yue directly as he spoke.
He was now the person with the highest Vitality Value at Second Middle School. No matter what, Second Middle School would not punish him.
"Li Ming!"
Wang Yue suppressed his anger with difficulty and ultimately returned to his seat helplessly.
Second Middle School really had to rely on Li Ming now.
Seeing this, the teacher in charge of the assessment continued calling the next person to the stage.
"Next, Liu Qing."
Hearing it was Liu Qing, all the students looked at Lin Tian strangely.
The two people Lin Tian had the worst relationship with at Second Middle School had taken the stage one after another. Was this not clearly targeting Lin Tian?
When Liu Qing stepped onto the stage, her Vitality Value appeared.
238!
"238 Vitality Value? That's so high! It increased by a full thirty-eight points since last time."
Seeing Liu Qing's Vitality Value, many people were dumbfounded.
During last month's physical assessment, Liu Qing's Vitality Value had only been 200. She had just become a Martial Dao First Layer mid-stage martial artist, yet in a single month, she had increased her vitality by thirty-eight points.
"What is going on with Liu Qing's Vitality Value?"
Even the teachers at Second Middle School were confused.
Liu Qing had reached her current level entirely because of the Blood Qi Pills Lin Tian had given her.
"Want to know why my Vitality Value increased so much?"
Seeing everyone's eyes fixed on her, Liu Qing spoke with a proud expression.
Those words immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.
"Liu Qing, what is the reason?"
Even Wang Yue and the principal of Second Middle School spoke up, wanting to know why.
With Liu Qing's talent, it was absolutely impossible for her to improve so greatly.
Seeing both Wang Yue and the principal asking, Liu Qing could no longer suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth.
"Did you see that Great Sun yesterday?"
"That was an expert beyond the Martial Dao Ninth Level, and I, Liu Qing, just happen to have a connection with that expert."
Liu Qing's words directly shocked everyone. The terrifying Great Sun had been seen by all of Yicheng City.
Lin Tian, however, wore a strange expression after hearing it.
"Liu Qing, of all excuses, you chose this one. You've narrowed your own path."
The other students at Second Middle School were full of amazement.
"So it was an expert beyond the Martial Dao Ninth Level. No wonder it was so terrifying!"
"Liu Qing, are you sure?"
The principal of Second Middle School spoke up to ask. This was no joking matter; as principal, he knew what that Great Sun represented.
"Of course!"
Liu Qing looked immensely proud.
"Alright, you can step down first."
After pondering briefly, the principal said this.
"Ah? Ah?"
Liu Qing was somewhat stunned. Should they not have been shocked and treated her like an honored guest next?
She walked off the stage in a daze.
The physical assessment soon reached the students of Class Two.
When Lin Tian stepped onto the stage, everyone's gaze turned toward him.
Of the two people who bore grudges against Lin Tian, Li Ming had the highest Vitality Value at Second Middle School, while Liu Qing was likely connected to that Great Sun.
They could not help feeling sorry for Lin Tian.
As Lin Tian stepped onto the testing platform, three digits appeared.
200!
"An Extreme Martial Artist?!!"
