Many people thought that Wu Xingqi and Su Yuan's spar would end quickly.

But that was based on Su Yuan being knocked down.

However, the result was that Wu Xingqi collapsed in confusion in less than ten seconds.

No one knew what Su Yuan had done, nor why Wu Xingqi suddenly collapsed on the ground and couldn't move.

They were all bewildered.

"Xingqi, are you okay?"

After a long while, a girl who was good friends with Wu Xingqi finally couldn't help but ask.

She wanted to step forward and help Wu Xingqi up, but was stopped by a cold voice:

"Don't touch her. She can't move right now. The more she moves, the worse her condition will get."

"Okay, okay, Class Monitor."

The girl quickly nodded.

The one who reminded them was naturally Chen Nuoyi.

As the first person to experience the power of Abyssal Spiritual Power, she knew better than anyone how terrifying this spiritual power was.

Last night, while tutoring Su Yuan, even though she immediately drove out the Abyssal Spiritual Power as soon as it invaded her body, her body still experienced some tremors that could destabilize her Dao heart.

And Wu Xingqi, without knowing anything, took a large and concentrated dose of Su Yuan's Abyssal Spiritual Power. Her body's sensitivity must have increased by more than ten, even twenty times its normal level!

In this situation, even a gust of wind blowing past would probably feel like a knife cutting her, right?

Su Yuan was also worried that something might happen to Wu Xingqi, so he quickly stepped forward, gently touched the limp, rounded shoulder of the tanned girl, and absorbed the Abyssal Spiritual Power from her body.

He had gone a bit too hard just now.

Even Su Yuan himself hadn't expected that after reaching Qi Cultivation Level 6, the power of his Abyssal Spiritual Power could be so strong.

After absorbing the Abyssal Spiritual Power, Su Yuan was about to step back, but his hand was suddenly grabbed by Wu Xingqi.

"Su, Section Chief Su."

Wu Xingqi panted softly, her cheeks flushed red, and asked with a serious expression:

"When I was about to attack you just now, why did I feel like I was being electrocuted?"

"It felt like I didn't want to hit you... Could this be the feeling of falling in love?"

Su Yuan: "..."

You call this falling in love?

Girl, you shouldn't confuse psychological and physiological reactions.

Aren't you always pretending to be experienced every day? How can you not even understand this?

"No, you're not. Don't overthink it."

"You're a good person, but we're just friends."

Su Yuan immediately unleashed a smooth combo of triple denial and the friend zone.

"I, I guess so too."

The girl seemed a little unconvinced. She snorted coldly, shook off Su Yuan's hand, and forced herself to stand up.

As soon as she started to get up, her legs trembled uncontrollably. Her legs went weak, and before she could fall back down, she instinctively grabbed Su Yuan's arm, her body leaning heavily on him.

On the martial arts class under the scorching sun, everyone was sweating profusely from practicing martial arts, and Wu Xingqi was no exception.

But Su Yuan didn't smell sweat from the girl. Instead, he smelled the aroma of bread.

It seemed to be coming from Wu Xingqi's clothes.

"Did you buy bread from a bakery?"

Su Yuan muttered to himself, supporting the increasingly embarrassed and indignant tanned girl, and handed her over to her friend under the strange gazes of the classmates.

"Damn it, I feel like my reputation has been ruined."

Su Yuan felt a chill down his spine.

As soon as he sent Wu Xingqi away, Su Yuan turned around and met Li Ziquan's eyes.

The alluring older sister teacher was staring intently at Su Yuan.

It was as if she was appraising a top-tier ingredient, with both affection and a strong sense of possessiveness!

"Su Yuan, have you awakened your Meridian? And your Meridian's characteristics seem very suitable for close combat!"

Li Ziquan spoke, her usually stern voice now trembling with excitement.

"During your fight with Wu Xingqi just now, I noticed that your focus and grasp of combat opportunities were impeccable."

"Although your fist techniques are only barely proficient, and your Seven Star Steps are merely at the minor accomplishment stage, I saw your immense potential!"

"Don't worry, as your teacher, I will definitely not let this potential go to waste. Before the college entrance examination, I will forge you into a genius in the top five, or even top three, in martial arts within the entire school."

As Li Ziquan's excited voice echoed throughout the field, the classmates finally understood what Wu Xingqi had just experienced!

The Meridian! It's Variant Spiritual Power born from the Meridian!

Su Yuan actually awakened a Meridian!

For a moment, the students in Class Two were filled with envy.

Several students who normally got along well with Su Yuan had expressions twisted like those of vengeful spirits.

Damn it, we agreed to be ordinary NPCs together! But you went and awakened top-tier immortal cultivation talent behind our backs!

One's own mediocrity is terrifying, but a brother's success is even more heartbreaking!

A sad, thick barrier had already formed between them and Su Yuan!

"Ah, um, thank you, Teacher."

Su Yuan couldn't stand Li Ziquan's gaze, which seemed like she wanted to devour him, and cautiously took two steps back, nodding reluctantly.

He was a fake genius. If Teacher Li discovered his mediocre martial arts talent during her dedicated guidance, would she abandon him?

While lost in thought, Li Ziquan spoke again.

"Speaking of which, I actually have something to announce today, related to the esteemed graduate from the Top Ten who will be visiting Taihua High School."

At this, Su Yuan and all the students' attention was immediately captured, even Chen Nuoyi.

A few days prior, Yue Lin had told them that an elite graduate from one of the Top Ten Immortal Dao Academies would soon visit Taihua High School and might even become a teacher in the Special Class.

Was there new information?

Li Ziquan continued, "After discussions among the school leadership, our school has decided to hold a Martial Arts Competition on the day the strong graduate from the Top Ten visits."

"The participants will be from the eight classes of the third year, with each class selecting one contestant."

"This is a great opportunity to shine. Those who achieve a ranking in the Martial Arts Competition can receive rewards such as exemption from entrance exams for the Special Class and scholarships."

Su Yuan's eyes lit up.

Exemption from entrance exams for the Special Class?

This was a very important opportunity for him!

To be honest, although his grades had improved significantly recently, he wasn't entirely confident he could reach the top fifty or even top thirty in the school before the monthly exams.

Compared to the monthly exam scores across six subjects, a single event like the Martial Arts Competition, where he had an advantage, offered a much higher probability of achieving a good ranking.

Not to mention the scholarships, though he wondered how much they would be. He hoped they would be generous.

However, Su Yuan soon noticed another piece of information from Li Ziquan's announcement.

Only one person per class could participate in the Martial Arts Competition.

Hiss--

Su Yuan gasped.

No matter how he looked at it, it wouldn't be his turn.

Just as Su Yuan felt his hopes were slim, Li Ziquan smiled slightly and said, "Since everyone is here, I'll go ahead and decide Class Two's participant."

"I was a bit hesitant before, but now I've completely decided on the participant for this event, and that is Su Yuan."

Hiss--

Upon hearing this, it was the turn of all the students present to gasp.

Teacher Li, you value talent, right! Or are you playing favorites! We're going to blacklist you!
