A Mastery of Movement-How Had He Done It?

"Chu Han, you can't go. You haven't awakened a talent. Going into the wilderness would be suicide!"

Wang Hao spoke to Chu Han anxiously, his brows knitted tightly together.

"Teacher Wang, I haven't gone crazy. This is a decision I made after careful consideration."

Chu Han gave him a faint smile.

Although Wang Hao was somewhat disappointed that Chu Han had failed to awaken a talent, there was only pity in his gaze, not the slightest trace of disgust.

This homeroom teacher had helped him tremendously over the past three years and cared deeply about him.

So when Chu Han proposed taking part in the Wilderness Training Camp, Wang Hao had shown only anxiety and concern, without any mockery or doubt.

"No. If I agree, I'll be sending you to your death. I won't allow that to happen!"

Wang Hao rejected him just as firmly as before, leaving not the slightest room for discussion.

Chu Han shook his head helplessly. His old homeroom teacher was good in every way—except that he was a little rigid.

"Hahahaha, this is killing me! A good-for-nothing wants to join the Wilderness Training Camp?"

At that moment, a grating voice rang out, dripping with mockery.

"Sun Liqiang?" Chu Han recognized the speaker from his voice alone.

Turning around, he saw Sun Liqiang with both hands in his pockets. He spoke disdainfully, "If I were you, I'd tuck my tail between my legs and hide. After graduation, find some factory and spend your days tightening screws. Hahaha!"

Sun Liqiang had awakened a B-rank talent, and he was brimming with self-satisfaction.

He had long disliked Chu Han. In the past, Chu Han had always surpassed him, whether in potential or academics. Even Li Mengran, the girl he liked, had once looked favorably upon Chu Han. Now that he had found an opportunity, he naturally wouldn't let it slip away.

"Exactly. A good-for-nothing ought to know his place!"

"Stop going out there and disgracing yourself. Haven't you embarrassed Third High School enough?"

The few lackeys behind Sun Liqiang immediately broke into jeering laughter as well.

A chill flashed through Chu Han's eyes. These clowns had finally come crawling out of the woodwork.

He glanced at Sun Liqiang, the corner of his mouth curling into a cold smile.

Pointing at Sun Liqiang, he said to Wang Hao, "If I can prove that I'm stronger than certain talent-awakened clowns, can I sign up then?"

His words left everyone stunned.

What was Chu Han trying to do? Had he really gone mad? He actually dared to provoke Sun Liqiang, who had awakened a B-rank talent?!

"Who are you calling a clown?"

The smile vanished from Sun Liqiang's face in an instant, replaced by fury.

Chu Han had struck precisely where it hurt. The shadow of having been crushed by Chu Han in every aspect surged back to life.

"You, obviously." Chu Han's tone remained flat.

"You're courting death!"

Sun Liqiang roared and moved to attack.

"That's enough!" Wang Hao shouted sharply, his head aching.

He had never expected Chu Han to be so bold, trying to use this to earn a chance to sign up. But how could Chu Han possibly be a match for a B-rank talent-awakened student?

"Teacher Wang, since Student Sun isn't convinced, I'd like to request a public match with him. If I win, that proves I'm qualified to take part in the training camp. If I lose, I'll never bring up signing up again, and I'll willingly apologize to him. How about it?"

Chu Han continued, and Wang Hao's brows furrowed even more deeply.

"Hahaha! You? A talentless good-for-nothing, and you think you're worthy of challenging me?"

Sun Liqiang laughed in fury. Before Wang Hao could answer, he eagerly accepted the challenge. "Fine! I accept! If you lose, you'll obediently admit that you're complete trash! Do you dare?"

"A good-for-nothing like you isn't enough to make me lose." Chu Han sneered.

"Then we'll see who's all bark in a moment!"

The students nearby were even more afraid that the world would not descend into chaos, and they began egging them on.

"Fight! Fight!"

"Brother Sun, show him what's what! Let him see the gap between a talent-awakened student and a good-for-nothing!"

"Haha, there's going to be a good show!"

Everyone looked forward to seeing the former genius Chu Han trampled even deeper into the mire. It seemed that doing so would give their pitiful self-esteem a tremendous boost.

Chu Han ignored these people reveling in his misfortune and simply looked at Wang Hao. "Please bear witness, Teacher."

Wang Hao looked at Chu Han's calm yet exceptionally resolute eyes, then glanced at the enraged students around him. He knew that this match could no longer be avoided.

He sighed and said helplessly, "Sigh. Go to the arena in the gymnasium. Stop once the winner is clear. No deliberate injuries!"

The arena in the gymnasium was instantly surrounded by spectators.

The news of Chu Han challenging Sun Liqiang spread at once, drawing nearly all the senior-year students.

Even several teachers came over to watch.

"Mengran, I disagreed with you pursuing Chu Han from the very beginning. Look at him now—he's lost his senses. With this kind of temperament, he can never become a martial artist."

In the crowd, Li Mengran's best friend looked at Chu Han on the stage as she spoke.

Beside her, Li Mengran snorted and cast Chu Han a contemptuous glance without saying a word, but her attitude was unmistakable.

On the arena, Sun Liqiang rolled his neck, producing a series of cracking sounds. A cruel smile spread across his face, as if he could already see Chu Han shouting that he was a good-for-nothing.

He did not use his talent right away. In his eyes, using his talent against a talentless person would be an insult to himself.

"Chu Han, it's not too late to kneel and beg for mercy!" Sun Liqiang snarled.

"Are you always this long-winded?" Chu Han crooked a finger at Sun Liqiang.

"Die!"

Sun Liqiang was thoroughly enraged. With a low growl, he suddenly lunged forward, his right fist carrying a rush of wind as it smashed toward Chu Han's face!

The punch was incredibly fast and packed with power, far beyond that of an ordinary high school student. Clearly, awakening his talent had comprehensively enhanced his physical abilities!

"How vicious! Chu Han is done for!"

Quite a few people were convinced that Chu Han could not possibly block that punch.

Yet just as the fist was about to land, Chu Han's body shifted slightly to the side, casually avoiding the punch.

"Hm?"

Sun Liqiang's fist missed. He froze for a moment, then grew even angrier and launched a rain of punches at Chu Han!

But what shocked everyone was that every single attack missed!

Each time, just before the attack reached him, Chu Han dodged with the smallest possible movement and the most precise action.

"How is that possible? How can he dodge every one?"

"Luck! He must just be lucky!"

"It doesn't look like luck. I doubt I could do that even after activating my talent."

Exclamations of shock rang out from below the stage.

"That looks like the Basic Movement Technique, but how can it be so smooth?"

A flash of disbelief erupted in Wang Hao's eyes as well!

As a martial artist, he could see more clearly. Chu Han's dodging was absolutely not luck—it was the Basic Movement Technique!

But he remembered that before the awakening ceremony, Chu Han's Basic Movement Technique had only just reached the realm of major mastery, already surpassing the level of high school students.

Yet the movement technique Chu Han was displaying now was at the realm of perfection, clearly having reached its perfected state!

Even his own Basic Movement Technique, as a Tier 2 martial artist, had only been cultivated to this level!

Could a talentless person really accomplish this?

The other teachers watching were likewise utterly shocked, unable to believe what they were seeing.

It had to be known that martial techniques were divided into seven realms: entry, minor mastery, major mastery, perfection, transcendence, ultimate mastery, and returning to the original simplicity.

Chu Han's perfected realm was something that students who had only just awakened their talents could never achieve!

"To reach this level without awakening a talent... His basic talent truly is monstrous! It's just a pity he failed to awaken a talent. What a pity..."

Chu Han was also incomparably excited. Just the improvement in his comprehension had instantly elevated his movement technique by an entire realm. The feeling was indescribably wonderful.

"Bastard! Is dodging all you can do?" Sun Liqiang was both embarrassed and furious, feeling like a monkey being toyed with.

What he had thought would be a battle settled in an instant had instead become a performance staged by Chu Han.

"Oh? Then try taking one of my punches."

Chu Han spoke indifferently and suddenly attacked!

There were no flashy movements, only the simplest straight punch from the Basic Fist Technique.

Yet this punch gathered all the strength in his body. His force-generating technique approached perfection, its speed as swift as rolling thunder, plain and unadorned.

Sun Liqiang had no time to react!

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, Sun Liqiang felt his chest tighten. His entire breath seized up in an instant, and he staggered backward several steps before falling to the ground, his face filled with shock and pain.

The entire arena erupted!

Not only had Chu Han dodged every attack, he had even counterattacked?

He had actually knocked down Sun Liqiang, who had awakened a B-rank talent, with a single punch?

What kind of international joke was this?

"His Basic Fist Technique has actually reached the perfected realm as well! How is that possible?"

Wang Hao and several other teachers were completely dumbfounded, unable to believe the reality before their eyes.
