I Choose to Withdraw from Third Middle School

Chu Han's declaration of war instantly set the whole place ablaze.

He, a student who hadn't even graduated, dared to challenge a Tier 2 martial artist in public?

Wasn't this madness?

"Could it be that Chu Han really took forbidden drugs, causing him to lose his mind?"

His impulsive actions further corroborated Sun Liqiang's accusation, and very few people on the scene still believed in his innocence.

A cold glint flashed in Shen Ping's eyes, and he immediately volunteered to the Principal, "Principal, he's beyond saving. Let me handle this and help Third Middle School get rid of this scourge. Otherwise, he'll bring shame to Third Middle School in the future!"

"Mm."

The Principal nodded, tacitly approving the match.

"This little fellow has spirit. It's a shame he won't become a soldier."

Captain Li muttered to himself from the side.

His gaze towards Chu Han grew more appreciative. "It's a good opportunity to observe. If he gets into danger, I wouldn't mind stepping in."

Chu Han and Shen Ping walked onto a dueling platform, a place specifically used by martial artists in the base for sparring and duels.

Thanks to the promotion by the Third Middle School students, a large audience quickly gathered.

After all, a drama where a student openly challenges a teacher wasn't something you saw every day.

On the stage, a sinister grin spread across Shen Ping's lips. "Chu Han, today I'll show you what a true martial artist is."

Chu Han merely let out a cold laugh and beckoned Shen Ping with a finger. "Make your move."

He was quite familiar with the strength of these school teachers.

Although Shen Ping was a Tier 2 martial artist, his strength was far weaker than Wang Hao, who was also Tier 2. He was at most early Tier 2.

Compared to the Tier 2 peak Red Scale Python, Shen Ping wasn't even worth mentioning.

He had killed the Red Scale Python, so Shen Ping naturally couldn't scare him.

Even though he no longer had his crimson Origin Energy, his physical fitness, strength, defense, and other aspects had all improved by 2-3 times.

With just his physical strength, he could fight!

"You're asking for death!"

Shen Ping could no longer hold back. He stomped his foot hard on the ground, and his body shot forward like a cannonball. His fist was enveloped in green Origin Energy as he fiercely slammed it towards Chu Han.

Shen Ping's talent was the D-rank talent "Body of Clear Wind," a wind-attribute talent that enhanced his agility. Hence, his speed was very fast.

"This guy is using Origin Energy right off the bat!"

Below the stage, Wang Hao clenched his fists, unable to help but worry for Chu Han.

"Good timing!"

Chu Han shouted, not dodging or evading. He threw out a punch of his own.

He wanted to know exactly how powerful his current punch was.

"He dares to meet the blow head-on. It's confirmed, the forbidden drugs have eroded his mind. He'll be crippled soon."

Li Mengran, watching from below, shook her head, her eyes filled with disdain.

"Bang!"

The two fists collided, and the resulting shockwave exploded, letting out a huge muffled sound.

Shen Ping's wind-attribute Origin Energy acted like countless tiny wind blades, continuously cutting at Chu Han's fist. Chu Han only felt a tingling sensation, with no real harm.

On the contrary, Shen Ping was repelled several steps by the immense force of Chu Han's fist before he could stop.

"This kid, where did he get so much strength? Are his fists made of iron?"

Shen Ping cried out in pain and surprise, constantly rotating his wrist to alleviate the ache in his hand.

The crowd watched their exchange, utterly shocked.

Chu Han, without using Origin Energy, had actually repelled a Tier 2 martial artist?

Who would believe this?

"This is a supernatural basic fist technique! It's at least a 5-6 times increase in punching power!"

Li Yunjian's eyes lit up, the shock in his heart lingering.

"Tier 2 martial artists are nothing more than this."

Chu Han's mocking voice reached them, making Shen Ping's expression even more unsightly.

"You not only took forbidden drugs but also injected yourself with a physical enhancer!" Shen Ping gritted his teeth and said.

"However, I won't compete with you in brute force."

Saying that, Shen Ping drew his saber. This saber was a D-rank weapon.

Green Origin Energy flowed around his feet, and his entire body transformed into a gust of clear wind as he attacked. His saber seemed to merge with the wind, carving a bizarre arc through the air.

"D-rank martial skill Gale Steps! C-rank martial skill Gale Saber Technique!"

"Shen Ping is getting serious! He's even using his ultimate martial skill!"

A gasp rose from the crowd.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Ping's saber was at Chu Han's neck.

"Clang!"

A metallic clash echoed as Chu Han blocked Shen Ping's attack with his saber.

"He blocked it again! His Basic Saber Technique has also reached the supernatural realm!"

Li Yunjian's eyes widened.

Although Chu Han's saber strike seemed effortless, powerful experts could see its extraordinary nature at a glance.

The Principal, a Tier 4 martial artist himself, was filled with disbelief.

Had they wrongly accused Chu Han?

Should they return his reward?

No! Even so, Chu Han was still a person without talent. Tier 3 martial artist would be his limit.

Li Mengran had awakened an A-rank talent and had a high chance of reaching the Grandmaster realm in the future!

There was still no comparison between them!

"The Gale Saber Technique isn't just one strike, it's a continuous barrage of fierce attacks! Keep blocking if you can!"

Shen Ping, enraged that his first strike was blocked, furiously swung his saber like a storm, slashing at Chu Han from all directions.

At the same time, he used Gale Steps to constantly shift his position, circling Chu Han and trapping him within his net of saber strikes.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

Chu Han reacted swiftly, parrying the attacks and his initial contempt for Shen Ping lessened.

He had to admit, Shen Ping's saber technique was quite good, and he liked it.

As he blocked, he analyzed the technique. Under his Ten Thousand Times Talent, he quickly gained new insights and understood the Gale Saber Technique almost completely.

The essence of the Gale Saber Technique was speed; the attacks were like a continuous storm, leaving the enemy no time to react. When executed with wind-attribute Origin Energy, its power was even greater.

However, Shen Ping's technique was not yet perfected and had many flaws.

Chu Han's saber danced up and down, handling Shen Ping's attacks with increasing ease, defending each strike precisely.

"Your saber technique isn't fully mastered yet! Let me teach you!"

Chu Han sneered, his saber shifting from defense to offense. He counterattacked Shen Ping using the Gale Saber Technique!

Strike after strike, incredibly sharp. Although his saber wasn't imbued with Origin Energy, his movements were more unpredictable and faster!

"Impossible! How do you know the Gale Saber Technique too!"

Shen Ping was shocked and hastily defended himself.

Having practiced this martial skill for over a decade, he could tell at a glance that Chu Han's Gale Saber Technique was incredibly refined and far superior to his own!

"Of course, you taught me!"

Chu Han's Gale Saber Technique was already at the master level from the start. Shen Ping could only barely cope by relying on his Origin Energy, which severely depleted his reserves, and he was on the verge of collapse.

Shen Ping immediately used Gale Steps to create distance between himself and Chu Han.

Gale Steps was a movement technique powered by wind-attribute Origin Energy, which Chu Han couldn't learn. However, with his perception, he quickly discerned the patterns and weaknesses of the technique.

He then used Spirit Cat Steps to pursue, his saber flashing like lightning towards Shen Ping.

"Fourth Form of the Army Breaker!"

Shen Ping felt an immense pressure that made his breath catch and his heart pound.

He hurriedly channeled all his Origin Energy into his saber, resisting with all his might.

A flash of white light, followed by a "crack," and Shen Ping's saber snapped in two.

Chu Han's saber grazed Shen Ping's chest diagonally, blood splattering everywhere.

Shen Ping fell backward, completely incapacitated.

Chu Han glanced at his own saber, which was also broken and jagged. He shook his head.

If his weapon hadn't been severely damaged in their previous clash, that strike would have killed Shen Ping.

Silence fell over the entire arena.

The match ended just like that, with Shen Ping being completely dominated by Chu Han!

Chu Han's strength had clearly reached the level of a Tier 2 martial artist!

It was utterly shocking!

So much so that many people hadn't even processed what happened!

"That last strike was the Fourth Form of the Army Breaker!"

Li Yunjian, who was watching the match, stood up directly, his face full of shock.

He also practiced the Seven Forms of the Army Breaker and naturally knew how difficult this martial skill was to master.

"Without Origin Energy, he can still perform the fourth form, and his Basic Saber Technique, fist techniques, and movement techniques are all at a supernatural level! What kind of monstrous talent is this! His martial foundation is so deep, it's unprecedented, and this is absolutely not something that can be achieved by taking forbidden drugs!"

The expressions on the Principal's and other leaders' faces at this moment were incredibly complex: astonishment, shock, confusion...

"Can I prove now that I didn't take any forbidden drugs?"

Chu Han stood with his saber, looking at the Principal and other leaders.

The Principal snorted, "Even if you've shown some martial talent now, who can guarantee this isn't the effect of those forbidden drugs? Moreover, as a student, you actually attacked your teacher so ruthlessly and are disobedient. Based on this alone, I can disqualify your wilderness training score!"

As the Principal, who stood in a position of authority, he would not tolerate a student being so arrogant, unless they had awakened a powerful talent.

And Chu Han clearly did not meet that condition yet.

"Fine, since that's the case, then I, Chu Han, will no longer deign to stay at Jiang City Third Middle School! From today onwards, I choose to withdraw from Jiang City Third Middle School and will no longer be a student of your school!"
