Reliving High School Life

Seeing Yang Yu practicing with utmost seriousness, every punch and retraction perfectly structured and carrying an inexplicable hint of beauty, the Class Beauty, Su Yu, could not help but watch from the side.

Hidden by the trees along the sidewalk, Yang Yu did not notice that someone was "peeping" at him.

Even if he had noticed, Yang Yu would not have cared.

How many beauties like her had he not seen and experienced in his previous life?

In the end, he had still found practicing martial arts and boxing to be the most satisfying!

Women would only affect the speed of his punches.

"Hmph! He didn't contact me all summer, so he went off to learn martial arts?" Su Yu stood with her hands on her hips, brows tightly furrowed and rosy lips pursed, looking thoroughly sulky.

"But practicing martial arts is good too. At least he's not as skinny and weak as before. Could he be practicing to give me a surprise? Did I misunderstand him?"

As Su Yu considered it, she thought of that possibility.

After all, at least half the boys in their class secretly had a crush on her!

Yang Yu usually looked so honest. Maybe he was actually the one who liked her the most!

That possibility was not impossible.

He had even specifically come to discuss Math Problems with her before.

In their class, she was the only one capable of competing with Yang Yu for first place in both the class and their grade.

Without realizing it, Su Yu, the Class Beauty whom other gossip-loving students had also named the School Beauty, felt sweetness bloom in her heart.

"He's working so hard for me. I should pretend not to know, or he'll be embarrassed."

"Mhm! I really am such a considerate, understanding girl. Hehe~~"

After giving Yang Yu one last deep look, Su Yu finally resumed her morning run.

Born into a prominent family, she had been strictly raised from childhood. Her studies and extracurricular interests had both been packed full of arrangements.

As a result, although she had met plenty of people growing up, she lacked the joys shared by people her own age.

Only after earning admission through her own abilities to one of the city's—and the nation's—top high schools did her family loosen their control over her slightly. But it was only slightly.

She could merely choose her own hobbies and play on her phone a little during weekends.

Having been repressed since childhood, she gradually came to enjoy the feeling of running.

And because of that long-term repression, Su Yu appeared to be a cold, aloof goddess on the surface, but her inner thoughts were actually complicated. She had simply never shown them.

Naturally, she had also paid attention to Yang Yu, a tall, slender, fair-skinned, handsome peer whose intelligence was nearly on par with her own.

But after receiving all of the original owner's memories, the transmigrated Yang Yu did not discover any special feelings the original owner had toward Su Yu.

The only thing that could be considered special was that her grades were good, though her personality was cold and solitary.

An hour later, after practicing the Siming Internal Martial Arts and Xingyiquan several times, Yang Yu concluded his training, stood still, and let out a long breath of stale air.

"Whew~ That felt great!"

Feeling sweat pour from his entire body and sensing the increasingly perfect control he had over it, Yang Yu smiled happily.

Given a second life, and having arrived in the Swallowed Star world he had most admired and yearned for in his previous life, Yang Yu secretly resolved to carve out an entirely different sky for himself.

After returning home and washing up, Yang Yu picked up the breakfast his Grandfather had carefully prepared. He wolfed it down, then patted his stomach in satisfaction. "Grandfather, I'm done eating. I'm off to class."

"Go on. Remember to come back for lunch at noon."

"Okay, Grandfather."

Slipping on his backpack, Yang Yu stepped out of the house once more and headed on foot toward the school two kilometers away.

He had originally owned a bicycle, but Yang Yu did not plan to ride it for the time being. Instead, he chose to jog there.

That would also help his soul and body merge more quickly.

Under the effects of the Meditation Breathing Technique and his morning Neijiaquan training, Yang Yu could clearly feel that his body had grown much stronger.

At the very least, the initial sensation of weakness was gone.

It was somewhat like his Spiritual Force being too powerful for his frail body to bear.

Now that Yang Yu's body had become only a little stronger, he could already feel his mind operating faster and more clearly.

This might also be related to the Spiritual Force deep within his mind constantly radiating outward. Only a sufficiently tough body could withstand such terrifying Spiritual Force.

After jogging for ten minutes, Yang Yu arrived at the gates of Jiangnan No.1 High School. Looking at the broad, imposing entrance, he did not linger and followed his memories to his original classroom.

It was already 8:05 in the morning, with only five minutes left until class began.

Punctuality had always been one of Yang Yu's virtues.

The moment he stepped into the classroom, a familiar voice called out. "Hey, Brother Yu, over here! I saved you a good seat."

Following the voice, he saw a classmate with a crew cut, clear eyes, and a height similar to his own, though not as handsome as himself.

"Wang Lin!"

Yang Yu remembered him instantly.

This was a good friend Yang Yu had known since Grade 10. They had previously been desk mates, and now that they were in Grade 12, they naturally remained desk mates.

Ignoring the curious, appraising gazes of the girls in class, Yang Yu walked straight to the last row. The spot Wang Lin had claimed was in the middle of the last row.

According to him, this spot allowed them to observe the entire classroom and was the best feng shui location.

Yang Yu was about the same height as Wang Lin, and Wang Lin's grades were not bad either, consistently ranking in the top ten of the class. Therefore, the Homeroom Teacher had never said much about the seats they chose.

"Brother Yu, why did you come so late today? And your complexion looks so much better than before."

The moment Yang Yu sat down, his best friend Wang Lin began chattering nonstop.

"Something came up this morning, so I was a little late. As for my complexion, it'll naturally improve if I exercise more." Yang Yu casually took out a math textbook and placed it on the desk, speaking as he fanned away the dust on its surface.

"Hehe, you were really exercising? Brother Yu, did you go on a date? I heard a few more junior girls are planning to confess to you. Did you secretly get a girlfriend over the summer?"

Wang Lin asked enviously.

"No, I really went exercising. Stop overthinking it. The Homeroom Teacher is here."

Yang Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry at his best friend's question.

Perhaps this was what every high school student was interested in—which person had gotten a girlfriend, which person had broken up again, and who was flirting ambiguously with whom.

But Yang Yu, whose mental age far exceeded theirs, was naturally no longer interested in such things. In truth, the original owner had not been interested either.

He had rejected every Love Letter or gift sent by the bolder girls.

This was why Wang Lin had always admired his brother so much.

Not only was he handsome and good at studying, but he was also so cool and aloof.

Wasn't that the perfect Urban Male God persona?

If not for the coming crisis of the Grand Nirvana, perhaps Yang Yu really might have taken some interest in such things. Reliving the youthful innocence of high school with a mature soul would not have been a bad idea.

But Yang Yu, who knew the course of history, had no mood for that now.

If he did not quickly improve his Physical Fitness, setting aside the incomparably dangerous Grand Nirvana awaiting him in the future—

The headaches that erupted from time to time might take his life at any moment.

After all, awakening as a Spirit Reader was extremely dangerous. The Original Work clearly stated that many Spirit Readers failed to endure the headaches during their awakening and died.

Internal review approved, the new book is setting sail. This is a brand-new Swallowed Star story, beginning before the Grand Nirvana and covering the Grand Nirvana in full. The protagonist will rise during this era to become the backbone of all Huaxia, then set out on a journey into the Starry Sky. He will not compete with Luo Feng for opportunities; the protagonist will have opportunities of his own.

I have an 860,000-word completed novel, so everyone can bookmark this with confidence.
