Martial Arts Class Selection, Shocking Everyone!

The next day, sunlight gently spilled across the land of Cloud City, draping each building in layers of faint golden gauze.

Lu Sheng woke early in his rented room and headed toward school.

Lu Sheng attended Cloud City First High School, which was not far from his rented room. He bought breakfast on the way and ate as he walked, arriving at the gates of No. 1 High School in only a few minutes.

Following the memories in his mind, Lu Sheng headed straight for No. 1 High School's Martial Arts Training Hall.

Today's Martial Arts Class selection would be held here!

The Martial Arts Training Hall was enormous, large enough to hold several thousand people.

By the time Lu Sheng arrived, quite a few people were already seated in the Martial Arts Training Hall's rest area.

Lu Sheng went to his class's section, the area for Senior Year 3 Class 1.

He casually found an empty seat and sat down, beginning to observe his surroundings.

Although he had the memories of the previous owner of this body, Lu Sheng still trusted what he saw with his own eyes more.

Before long, the students of Class 1 began arriving one after another. When they saw Lu Sheng, surprise appeared on their faces.

"Lu Sheng, weren't you sick? Why are you still here for the Martial Arts Class selection?"

"Hahaha, yeah. You're a Quasi-Martial Artist, yet you still got sick? Are you trying to make me laugh myself to death so you can inherit my Huabei debt?"

Quite a few people teased Lu Sheng.

Listening to them, Lu Sheng's mouth twitched slightly. It had to be said that the previous owner of this body had truly been useless. He had clearly already become a Quasi-Martial Artist; though not as powerful as a true martial artist, getting sick was still a rare occurrence.

Not to mention getting sick enough to lose his life.

However, Lu Sheng paid no mind to their teasing. No matter what they said, he did not speak, merely silently looking toward the floor of the Martial Arts Training Hall.

There, rows of pitch-black instruments had already been placed across the Martial Arts Training Hall.

The instruments seemed to have been forged from some kind of Ink Stone, radiating an exceptionally heavy aura.

"Class 1, come with me. Get ready for the test!!"

Suddenly, a voice rang out beside Lu Sheng's ear. He looked over and saw a potbellied, balding middle-aged man standing in Class 1's rest area, waving at them.

At once, the students of Class 1 rose and walked toward the middle-aged man.

The man was Class 1's homeroom teacher, Wang Xing. He was also a Blood Qi Realm martial artist. Though he looked potbellied, he was actually kindhearted.

He would more or less lend a hand to students from difficult family backgrounds, such as Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng also stood and followed behind the others toward Wang Xing.

Along the way, Lu Sheng heard his classmates talking nonstop.

"I wonder who in our class will be able to enter the Martial Arts Class today. That's the Martial Arts Class! As long as you get in, you can basically enter a good Martial Arts Academy!"

"Exactly. The Martial Arts Class only recruits geniuses. There's still some time before the Martial Arts College Entrance Exam. Anyone who can become a martial artist at this stage would be among the very best in any school in Cloud City!"

"I reckon only the class monitor and the class beauty in our class have a chance of entering the Martial Arts Class!"

The class monitor and the class beauty?

Hearing those two titles, Lu Sheng raised a brow and looked at the two figures ahead.

The two stood at the very front of the group. The boy in particular had his head held high, giving off an air as though none under heaven could rival him.

He was Class 1's class monitor, Bai Mo. He had become a martial artist a month ago.

Beside Bai Mo stood a slender girl in a JK uniform, her thighs as white as jade.

She was none other than Class 1's class beauty, Chu Yanran!

She was also one of Class 1's only two martial artists!

"Bai Mo and Chu Yanran?"

Lu Sheng merely glanced at them before withdrawing his gaze.

By then, under Wang Xing's lead, Class 1 had arrived before the Blood Qi Tester.

He began directing the students to undergo testing one by one.

Lu Sheng stood at the back of the crowd, somewhat bored, when a commotion suddenly broke out ahead.

"Gasp! Blood Qi Layer Five—is this the class monitor's strength?!"

"As expected of the class monitor. In just one month, he cultivated from Blood Qi Layer One to Blood Qi Layer Five. With cultivation like this, he would still be among the best even in the Martial Arts Class, right?"

Hearing this, Lu Sheng could not help looking ahead again.

Bai Mo had his head held high, and beside him, scarlet digits had appeared on the Blood Qi Tester!

5!

Five points of blood qi, Blood Qi Layer Five!!

After a Quasi-Martial Artist stepped into the ranks of martial artists, they entered the realm of Blood Qi Martial Artists. The strength of a Blood Qi Martial Artist was divided according to the intensity of their blood qi.

One point of blood qi was Blood Qi Layer One. Once one reached ten points of blood qi, they had reached the pinnacle of the Blood Qi Realm and could begin charging toward the next realm!

Seeing this, Wang Xing smiled so broadly that his mouth could barely close. The more students who entered the Martial Arts Class, the better it was for him.

"Quick, Yanran, it's your turn!"

Wang Xing said to Chu Yanran beside him with a smile.

Chu Yanran nodded expressionlessly, stepped into Bai Mo's former position, and extended her pair of fair jade-like hands.

Blood qi poured in...

Bzzzz!!

The instrument emitted a series of soft hums.

The next moment, another scarlet digit appeared.

5!

Also Blood Qi Layer Five!!

At this sight, Wang Xing's already beaming face became even more excited.

"Good, good, good! As expected of the two top students of our Class 1!!"

"You two go down and get some proper rest first. Let the other students be tested!"

Wang Xing said warmly to the pair.

The two merely nodded and said nothing. After becoming martial artists, their status had become even more elevated.

Wang Xing did not mind. He simply directed the students behind them to begin testing one by one.

However, the results afterward were not particularly ideal.

Other than Bai Mo and Chu Yanran, not a single person had raised their blood qi to 1.

Wang Xing felt some regret, but having two geniuses like Bai Mo and Chu Yanran in the class was already quite good.

Soon, it was Lu Sheng's turn.

Wang Xing glanced at Lu Sheng, somewhat surprised, and could not help saying, "Lu Sheng, aren't you still sick?"

Lu Sheng smiled at Wang Xing. "Teacher Wang, I want to give it a try!"

Wang Xing looked at Lu Sheng and shook his head helplessly. "Fine, fine. I'll let you try. It'll also help you give up on this idea!"

Lu Sheng's foundation had never been particularly good, not to mention that he had been sick just a few days ago. In Wang Xing's eyes, this was merely to make Lu Sheng give up!

Lu Sheng did not explain anything. He simply walked silently before the Blood Qi Tester and pressed his palm against it.

The blood qi within his body instantly surged into the instrument.

Bzzzz!!

Amid the soft hums, a scarlet digit abruptly appeared on the instrument's display the next moment.

1!

One point of blood qi, Blood Qi Layer One!!!
