Lies Don't Hurt People, The Truth Is The Sharp Knife! (Seeking Follow-up Reads!!!)

"When I realized you still hadn't returned by one in the morning, I knew you weren't the same person you used to be."

"A man whose heart has strayed is a traitor to this family! He's even forgotten the responsibilities that come with being a part of this family."

Chu Lanxi continued his dramatic performance as if possessed. Chen Nuoyi, seeing this scene for the first time, was greatly shocked.

Su Yuan, however, said as if he'd seen it all before:

"You want me to do your homework, right? I already finished it before school, so can you stop bothering me now?"

Chu Lanxi immediately shut up, gave an OK gesture, and turned to walk towards his bedroom. Just before closing the bedroom door, he said with a serious expression:

"Please make yourselves at home in the living room. No matter how much noise you make, I'll be like the husband fast asleep in the movies, I absolutely won't wake up."

"You're dead!"

Su Yuan immediately made a husky pointing meme expression.

Chu Lanxi closed his room door with satisfaction, leaving only Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi in the living room.

"Time is tight, Su Yuan, which subject do you want to focus on first?"

Once in teaching mode, Chen Nuoyi regained the cool demeanor she displayed in class and asked.

Su Yuan began to think carefully.

His grades in General Knowledge and Spiritual Text, both rote memorization subjects, were decent. He consistently scored around 135 and 70 respectively on monthly exams, so there was no urgent need to improve them.

For Physical Education, he needed to see if he could consistently obtain the Blue Pill. If so, his grade would improve soon enough.

In terms of Dao Heart, his previous grades were average, but with the Pure Devil Heart, his performance should improve significantly.

The remaining subjects were Cultivation and Martial Arts. Breathing exercises like Breathing were something he had to do himself. Even with the same Breathing Technique, everyone's execution varied. Even Chen Nuoyi couldn't help him much with that.

After much thought, the subject he currently needed Chen Nuoyi's help with the most was Martial Arts.

Martial Arts wasn't just about Martial Arts; it was a general term for Martial Arts and Dao Arts, encompassing both the warrior and mage paths.

It was just that Qi Cultivators had low spiritual power, insufficient to support the consumption of Dao Arts, which was why Taihua High School's Martial Arts department primarily promoted Martial Arts.

Su Yuan currently knew two Martial Arts from school: one called the Morning Sun Fist Style, and the other called the Seven Star Footwork. The former increased attack power, while the latter improved agility.

The mastery of Martial Arts was divided into four stages: Entry, Minor Accomplishment, Major Accomplishment, and Perfection. Su Yuan's mastery of both these Martial Arts was only at the Minor Accomplishment level.

In the last monthly exam, Su Yuan scored only ninety out of a possible one hundred and fifty in Martial Arts, ranking twenty-eighth in the entire class, a very mediocre performance.

Of course, the Martial Arts exam didn't test students' mastery of these two Martial Arts, but rather their performance in actual combat.

Students from wealthier families could afford to learn more advanced Martial Arts, equivalent to buying practice tests and attending cram schools in his previous life.

However, the more advanced the Martial Art, the harder it was to improve its mastery. Being able to unleash the full power of an advanced Martial Art in combat demonstrated genuine talent in Martial Arts, naturally leading to high scores.

Students without such talent would be better off focusing on the Morning Sun Fist and Seven Star Footwork.

After all, advanced Martial Arts only had a high ceiling; their floor could be incredibly low. Most high school students wouldn't even reach the upper limits of advanced Martial Arts, let alone the Morning Sun Fist and Seven Star Footwork, before the college entrance examination.

So, theoretically, Su Yuan's Eighteen Divine Fork Styles could also be used in the Martial Arts exam.

Eighteen Divine Fork Styles at the Perfection level could definitely crush the Morning Sun Fist Style at Major Accomplishment.

But here's the problem: the Martial Arts exam stipulated that students must fight bare-handed. He wouldn't even have a fork during the exam, so how could he use the Eighteen Divine Fork Styles?

Unless the System suddenly gave him a divine skill and directly raised its mastery to Perfection, he would have to diligently practice the Morning Sun Fist and Seven Star Footwork.

After deciding to focus on Martial Arts, Su Yuan naturally couldn't just practice in the living room. He and Chen Nuoyi went up to the residential community's rooftop.

"Su Yuan, attack me directly. I'll try my best to suppress my strength to the Fifth Layer of Qi Cultivation while fighting you, so I can point out the shortcomings in your fist style and footwork," Chen Nuoyi said calmly, with one hand behind her back.

The bright moonlight shone down, casting a crystalline glow on the girl's fair skin, like flawless jade.

Her cool summer uniform, illuminated by the moonlight, seemed to become semi-transparent. It was at this moment that Su Yuan realized light also had form.

And this aloof class beauty was truly well-endowed!

However, Su Yuan didn't have many impure thoughts at the moment, because the girl before him exuded a powerful aura of a Grandmaster, aloof and unapproachable.

Su Yuan took a deep breath and assumed the starting stance for the Morning Sun Fist. Spiritual energy gathered in every muscle needed for the punch, and the aura of a Fifth Layer of Qi Cultivation cultivator manifested.

As soon as he took his stance, Su Yuan felt something slightly off about his body.

Every muscle he moved felt smoother than before, with significantly reduced stiffness.

After a moment's thought, Su Yuan understood. This was definitely the Blue Pill's doing. He remembered that this spiritual pill had the effect of automatically regulating the functional muscles of the body.

In other words, as long as he kept taking the pills, his body would eventually evolve into a Martial Saint Body.

This was a truly dangerous thought. Who knew when the martial arts world would hear the tragic news of Su Wu Sheng ascending to heaven via steroids.

Let's see how much of a gap there is between me after cheating… and the sacred class number one!

Su Yuan charged forward.

Then…

Bang—

Chen Nuoyi's delicate fist landed squarely on Su Yuan's stomach, sending him flying back more than ten meters.

Su Yuan collapsed.

"Cough, cough, Big Sis, what level is your Sunrise Fist? I couldn't even see the shadow of your fist. Did you really suppress your strength to the Fifth Layer of Qi Cultivation?"

Su Yuan got up from the ground, covered in dust.

Chen Nuoyi looked at Su Yuan's miserable state and said apologetically:

"My mastery of Sunrise Fist was perfected half a year ago. No, I'm sorry, I didn't accurately estimate the gap between us and went a little too hard... I'll be careful next time."

Su Yuan: "..."

Lies don't hurt people; the truth is the sharpest knife!

But a man can't say he can't do it!

Su Yuan rallied, his eyes instantly sharpening. With the enhancement of the Pure Devil Heart, he cast aside all pain, his eyes filled only with a yearning for martial arts.

This practical combat tutoring session began again.

Of course, in reality, Su Yuan was being beaten unilaterally.

Every time he was knocked down, Chen Nuoyi would pointedly identify flaws in Su Yuan's fist techniques or footwork.

This kind of tutoring was no different from one-on-one guidance from a master, allowing Su Yuan to gain a lot in just two hours... setting aside the fact that he was beaten black and blue.

As the sky gradually turned the color of fish belly, the tutoring session concluded.

Returning to their rented apartment, Su Yuan quickly finished Chu Lanxi's homework. Afterward, the three of them in the apartment took turns washing up and headed to school together.

There were spare toothbrushes and towels, so no delightful events occurred.

In front of the delivery lockers outside the gate of Feiyun Community, Su Yuan opened a locker and took out a not-too-large express box, tucking it into his crossbody bag.

This delivery was precisely what Su Yuan had ordered more than two hours ago.

Chen Nuoyi, standing beside him, looked on with some curiosity.

Su Yuan smiled and explained:

"These are the Wonderful Tools I need for making money today."

At the same time, he added in his heart: "They are also evil items that will lead you, the Righteous Path Saintess, to absolute depravity."
