Started by being dumped?

"Li Ziyu, let's break up."

Great Xia, Xujiang City.

Third High School, Class Six.

In a spacious and bright classroom, Li Ziyu slowly lifted his head from where he was resting on his desk, looking at the young woman in front of him with a blank expression.

Xu Mengyao.

The girl had fair skin and beautiful features.

Her long, straight black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her proud chest made her simple white short-sleeved shirt bulge high.

At this moment, she looked down at him with indifference, her tone cold.

"Your Qi and Blood test only showed 0.8. The worst Martial Arts University requires 1.2 for Qi and Blood."

"The Martial Arts Examination is in a week. Even with a final sprint, you can't possibly raise your Qi and Blood to 1.2 in a week."

"If your Qi and Blood value doesn't reach 1.2, you won't be able to get into a Martial Arts University. I won't have a boyfriend who can't even get into one."

"From now on, we're from different worlds. I hope you'll recognize your place and stop bothering me!"

After speaking, the girl turned and walked out of the classroom without waiting for Li Ziyu's response.

She didn't even glance back at him.

Break up?

Qi and Blood test?

Martial Arts University?

What was all this?

Wasn't he an orphan? Where did he get a girlfriend from?

Also, wasn't he at the boss's wife's house helping her fix her computer?

Li Ziyu's gaze shifted from the girl's departing back, and he scanned the classroom.

It was a bright classroom of about forty to fifty square meters, with dozens of desks scattered around.

A dozen or so boys and girls in school uniforms were looking at him with pity.

And on the blackboard behind the podium at the front, a prominent line was written in chalk.

Only seven days left until the Martial Arts Examination!

This scene was too realistic.

Could it be that the boss's wife wanted some excitement and was playing a role-playing game with him?

Just as Li Ziyu was about to get up and ask someone for information.

He felt a wave of dizziness wash over his brain.

His body, which had just stood up, plopped back down into his seat as a torrent of memories surged into his mind.

A moment passed.

Li Ziyu came back to his senses. Through the memories in his mind, he clearly understood his current situation.

"I've transmigrated?"

According to the memories in his mind, this was a planet called Blue Star, and he was in a country called Great Xia.

However, unlike the Earth Li Ziyu was from, Blue Star was countless times larger than Earth.

And Blue Star also had many more things than Earth, such as Fierce Beasts, the Martial Path, and the power of Qi and Blood.

Here, students' headaches at school weren't about physics or chemistry like on Earth.

Instead, it was about the power of Qi and Blood, combat power index, and practical combat results.

The college entrance examination had been replaced by the Martial Arts Examination.

Before the college entrance examination, all third-year high school students would be gathered to test their Qi and Blood power.

Those with high Qi and Blood values could apply for the Martial Arts Examination, attend a Martial Arts University, and become Martial Artists.

Those with low Qi and Blood values would learn a trade early and make other plans.

And the original body was someone whose Qi and Blood was not up to standard, and could only become an ordinary person.

"Working three jobs overnight, constantly overworking my body, it would be a miracle if my Qi and Blood could be up to standard. It's good I didn't collapse from exhaustion."

"Oh, no, the original body already died from exhaustion, dying from working overtime to buy a bag for his girlfriend..."

"The key thing is, I'm being broken up with by a Green Tea Girlfriend now?"

Li Ziyu recalled the memories.

Working overtime, not daring to eat or wear nice things, all to buy a bag for his Green Tea Girlfriend.

The Qi and Blood supplements he couldn't afford to eat, he gave to his Green Tea Girlfriend.

The key was that they hadn't even held hands yet?

Li Ziyu looked at Xu Mengyao's retreating back, which left without hesitation or a second glance, and couldn't help but mourn for his past self.

Miserable dogs truly never get good endings.

"But that has nothing to do with me anymore. The urgent matter is to make plans for the future."

Because of the existence of Fierce Beasts and the influence of strange rules, the effectiveness of modern weapons in this world had become negligible.

Martial Artists had become the primary force against Fierce Beasts.

As a result, the status of Martial Artists soared, granting them various privileges.

The most direct example was that his past self, who worked three jobs to exhaustion, only earned less than five thousand yuan a month.

Meanwhile, even a level one Martial Artist, without doing anything, could receive a monthly subsidy of five thousand yuan from the local Martial Path Association.

Not to mention, to hold important positions in Great Xia, one was required to be a Martial Artist.

"Whether it's to improve my life or to have the strength to protect myself, becoming a Martial Artist is the best choice!"

"Besides, having a second chance at life, how can I still be mediocre and live as an ordinary person?"

"I want to experience the feeling of shattering mountains and rivers with my fists too!"

Li Ziyu clenched his fists secretly, his gaze firm.

Ignoring the pitying and gossiping glances from those around him, Li Ziyu began to ponder his next move.

There were two paths to becoming a Martial Artist.

One was to join a Martial Arts Hall and receive tutelage.

The other was to participate in the Martial Arts Examination and be admitted to a Martial Arts University.

But both paths had a prerequisite: Qi and Blood power must meet the standard.

Neither Martial Arts Halls nor Martial Arts Universities would accept an ordinary person whose Qi and Blood power did not meet the requirements.

In other words.

Meeting the Qi and Blood standard was the '1', and everything else was '0'.

Without the prerequisite '1', thinking further was useless.

Just as Li Ziyu was contemplating.

A pleasant mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Ding, Host's Martial Path consciousness detected awakening. Martial God System binding initiated."

"Binding successful!"

Along with the mechanical voice, a faint blue virtual panel appeared in Li Ziyu's mind.

Li Ziyu was stunned for a moment before regaining his senses, looking towards the virtual panel.

Name: Li Ziyu.

Realm: Unranked.

Combat Skill: Basic Blade Technique.

System: Martial God System.

Function: Can absorb all things to enhance Qi and Blood. Other functions await the host's exploration.

The introduction was simple and crude, only a few words, but it made Li Ziyu's heart race.

In his previous life, he had read plenty of online novels, and Systems were essential for protagonists to reach the peak of their lives.

Li Ziyu carefully read the system's introduction on the panel.

Absorbing all things to enhance Qi and Blood; if it were truly as described, then this system would be incredibly useful to him.

One had to know that the most fundamental power of a Martial Artist was Qi and Blood power.

Qi and Blood was the source of everything and the foundation of a Martial Artist's combat power.

But at the same time, Qi and Blood power was the most difficult thing to improve.

"I just don't know how the absorption of all things works; the description is too simple."

Li Ziyu frowned and pondered.

At that moment.

On the table in front of him, a mosquito with white wings lazily landed on the tabletop.

After lingering on the table for a moment, it crawled up Li Ziyu's finger and, finding a spot, rubbed its hands together, preparing to feast.

Li Ziyu casually swatted.

Splat.

"Martial God System activated. Absorbed mosquito's life. Qi and Blood +0.00001."

As the mosquito exploded, the system's pleasant voice sounded in Li Ziyu's ears.

Li Ziyu felt a subtle, almost imperceptible warm current surge from deep within his body.

This was the sensation that accompanied an increase in Qi and Blood.

"Qi and Blood value +0.00001?

Li Ziyu's eyes lit up. Was this the correct way to use the system?

Killing creatures would increase Qi and Blood?

Li Ziyu felt the warm current within his body. Although it was subtle, he could indeed feel the improvement.

If that was the case, then the system was truly amazing!

Don't underestimate the small +0.00001. He had just swatted a seemingly insignificant mosquito. What if it were other creatures?

Beasts, or even Fierce Beasts?

Li Ziyu knew better than anyone how difficult it was to increase Qi and Blood.

For high school students their age, increasing Qi and Blood required not only consistent high-intensity training every day but also strict dietary control.

Those from families with good financial conditions would also supplement with medicines that boost Qi and Blood.

With all that, after a few months, they might increase their Qi and Blood by zero point something.

And that was for those with good family backgrounds who could afford tonics.

For those from less fortunate families, they might train diligently for months without any increase in Qi and Blood.

"Poverty breeds weakness, wealth breeds strength" was vividly reflected in Martial Artists.

This was also the reason why Chen Mengyao was so certain he couldn't become a Martial Artist and wanted to break up with him.

After all, to increase 0.5 points of Qi and Blood out of thin air with only a week left before the Martial Arts Examination was simply a fantasy.

"Even the smallest mosquito is still flesh. Although one mosquito only adds 0.00001 Qi and Blood, there are plenty of mosquitoes in the small woods behind the school's sports field!"

"I'll get this Qi and Blood first!"

Thinking this, Li Ziyu suddenly felt his future was bright.

His mood improved, and even the osmanthus trees outside the window smelled sweeter.

Without delaying any further, he pushed his chair away, stood up, and headed towards the small woods behind the school's sports field.
