Yuan Dongzhi's Shock

"That's... a robot's head?"

"The position of that head seems to be the location of Team D's challenge."

"What's going on?"

"Did the robot's Anti-Airflow Propulsion Device malfunction and smash through the ceiling?"

"It's possible..."

At that moment, everyone on the rooftop looked at the robot head on the ground, wondering what had happened below.

Most people guessed that the robot had malfunctioned.

"Brother Yu, do you think it's possible that Brother Chen kicked the robot and it crashed through the ceiling?"

Luo Yongjian boldly guessed.

He had personally experienced Lin Zichen's power and witnessed the terrifying strength Lin Zichen displayed. He strongly suspected that the robot crashing through the ceiling was the work of this strongest Newcomer King in Mountain University's history.

Li Moyu had also considered this possibility.

But after calming down and thinking about it, I still feel it's a bit too exaggerated and unrealistic.

Lin Zichen is indeed strong.

However, that robot's strength was at the peak of the Ordinary Rank 8, and its entire body was made of alloy, with maximum defensive capabilities.

Without the strength of an ordinary Tier 9 cultivator, it's impossible to deal with this robot.

Even if Lin Zichen is strong, can he be strong enough to have the strength of an ordinary Tier 9 cultivator?

Without even thinking about it, it's simply impossible.

Lin Zichen is currently a Freshman.

It has not been fused with Exotic Beast genes.

No Mechanical Modification have been made.

No matter how exaggerated his physical talent is, his strength is at most at the Ordinary Rank 8, and it can't be higher.

Any higher, and that would be unscientific; they'd be caught and dissected for research.

But what if?

What if Lin Zichen really did it?

This guy's a repeat offender, often displaying unbelievable skills; he might be using the same trick again this time...

Thinking of this, Li Moyu walked towards Instructor Lu Tianrong to watch the surveillance footage playback.

However, before he could even walk over, Lu Tianrong murmured in disbelief:

"He really sent the robot flying with a single punch?"

"How is this possible?"

"No, I have to go down and check the situation."

After saying that, Lu Tianrong immediately turned off the surveillance footage he had watched several times and got up to rush downstairs to the room where Team D was located.

Everyone present heard his mutterings, and their faces showed shock.

Can you send a robot flying with one punch?

Is it true or false?

How did you do that?

Everyone was puzzled by this and quickly followed Lu Tianrong's footsteps, heading downstairs to the room where Team D was located.

Downstairs.

The room where Team D was located.

Zhao Yuanzhong, Zhang Kai, and Shangguan Yueying stood motionless, staring up at the robot that was stuck in the ceiling and teetering on the verge of collapse, their faces filled with shock.

All three found it hard to believe that Lin Zichen, whose strength seemed unremarkable, could actually send a robot with the strength of a peak Ordinary Rank 8 being flying with a single punch.

This is absolutely stunning!

This is incredible!

This is simply unscientific!

"Zichen, what's going on with your strength? How are you so powerful?"

Zhang Kai snapped out of his daze, looking at Lin Zichen with a face full of disbelief, and asked him this perplexing question.

Upon hearing this Zhao Yuanzhong and Shangguan Yueying also looked at Lin Zichen, awaiting his reply.

Among them, Shangguan Yueying looked at Lin Zichen's incredibly handsome face, and then thought of the scene where Lin Zichen punched the robot away, and couldn't help but feel a strange emotion.

Before this, she simply thought Lin Zichen was handsome and had a good impression of him.

At that moment, after witnessing Lin Zichen's exaggeratedly unreal strength, she became completely infatuated with Lin Zichen.

Deep down, thoughts I shouldn't have had began to surface.

Even married men are not exempt.

Facing the gazes of the three, Lin Zichen calmly explained:

"Although my Biological Rank is only Ordinary Rank 8, I am born with divine strength, and I have also followed the Pure-Blood Human Path specifically strengthen my physical body. If I find the right angle to exert force, it is not difficult to send an Ordinary Rank 8 peak robot flying with one punch."

This is utter nonsense.

However, it sounds reasonable and well-founded, without any obvious logical flaws, and is convincing.

"So, Pure-Blood Human Path can be this strong?"

Zhao Yuanzhong felt his understanding had been shattered, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.

He has always thought that people who follow the Pure-Blood Human Path are mentally ill.

When he learned yesterday that Lin Zichen was not pursuing the Gene Fusion Path but instead chose the Pure-Blood Human Path, he harbored a prejudice against Lin Zichen, thinking that this genius from Mountain University must have lost his mind.

But now, he's starting to doubt himself.

They realized that Lin Zichen wasn't mentally ill.

It's not that I'm ignorant, but rather that I lack knowledge.

They don't understand the special characteristics of Pure-Blood Human Path; they just blindly follow the trend of criticizing them, echoing others' opinions without any independent thought of their own.

Zhang Kai, standing to the side, was also caught in a deep self-doubt, just like Zhao Yuanzhong.

Yesterday, after several years, he saw Lin Zichen again, and all he could think about was how to show off in front of Lin Zichen and shock Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen needed to open his eyes wide and see how amazing his former useless senior had become—so amazing that he could easily defeat all the top geniuses.

But the reality is that Lin Zichen is still the same Lin Zichen he always was.

No matter the occasion, she always takes first place without a doubt, leaving her peers in the dust and unable to even think of competing with her.

The gap is too large; there's simply no way to compete...

Thinking about all this, Zhang Kai looked at Lin Zichen and said with emotion:

"I knew it! You were such a top genius, why would you abandon the Gene Fusion Path and choose the Pure-Blood Human Path with no future?"

"So, you've already made a name for yourself in the Pure-Blood Human Path. Your progress in the Pure-Blood Human Path is no less than that in the Gene Fusion Path."

"Honestly, Zichen, your physical talent is just too enviable."

Zhang Kai said with envy, "The Mechanical Modification Path requires sacrificing part of your physical body, the Gene Fusion Path requires being invaded by foreign genes, only by becoming Pure-Blood Human Path can you completely possess your own body. I really envy you."

There's no need to be envious.

Lin Zichen said calmly, "The future of Pure-Blood Human Path is still uncertain. I might get stuck at the ordinary Tier 9 and be unable to evolve further."

"Xiao Chen is lying to people again... "Shen Qinghan muttered to herself.

Just then, footsteps echoed down the corridor outside.

"Da... da... da..."

Lin Zichen immediately used his senses to detect that the instructors and the other three teams had arrived.

In addition, there were several military doctors carrying medical kits.

It's obvious that the noise from the robot crashing through the ceiling was so loud that it attracted everyone on the rooftop.

The footsteps grew louder.

Soon, a large group of people, led by instructor Lu Tianrong, rushed into the room.

When they saw the robot teetering precariously on the ceiling, the group was filled with disbelief, feeling as if it were a dream.

Although I had already foreseen this scene when I was on the rooftop.

But seeing it with my own eyes now, I was still shocked by this astonishing scene.

Seeing the entire ceiling covered in cobweb-like cracks, looking like it could collapse at any moment, I was deeply shocked.

How terrifyingly powerful must one be to punch a robot so hard it sends it flying, crashing into the ceiling and creating large, shocking cracks in the wall?

"Instructor, could we see the surveillance footage? We want to know what exactly happened here."

The lame Military District genius looked at Lu Tianrong and said.

Lu Tianrong didn't say anything, but handed him the tablet computer and then quickly walked towards Lin Zichen.

"Lin, what is your current Biological Rank?"

Lu Tianrong stopped in front of Lin Zichen and asked curiously.

Lin Zichen briefly recounted his earlier response to Zhang Kai:

"I 'Ordinary Rank 8 cultivator, but I'm born with superhuman strength, and I've been following the Pure-Blood Human Path, constantly strengthening my physical body. If I unleash my full power, I can easily unleash power comparable to an ordinary Tier 9 cultivator."

Comparable to the power of an ordinary Tier 9?

Hearing this, Lu Tianrong was shocked.

The genius from Mountain University standing before us is not yet 20 years old, and has not undergone Mechanical Modification or Gene Fusion.

However, it can unleash power comparable to that of an ordinary Tier 9.

Is this Exotic Beast disguised as a human?

Or is it Exotic Human from the Origin Land?

How could this be so outrageous?

The more Lu Tianrong thought about it, the more unreal it felt.

He had lived for over fifty years and spent over thirty years in the Military District, and this was the first time he had ever seen such an unconventional genius as Lin Zichen.

Their physical talents are unbelievably powerful; they possess immense strength without relying on Gene Fusion or Mechanical Modification.

To be honest, my understanding has been somewhat shattered.

While Lu Tianrong was questioning the meaning of life.

Nearby, a crowd gathered to watch the surveillance footage, and gasps of surprise could be heard from the crowd.

"Holy crap! He really blasted the robot away with a single punch! What kind of monster is this? How can his strength be so terrifying?!"

"Is this really a freshman from Mountain University?"

"Without fusing with Exotic Beast genes or undergoing Mechanical Modification, how can a Pure-Blood Human body unleash such terrifying power? Could Pure-Blood Human Path the future of humanity?"

A series of exclamations rang out.

Soon, everyone present turned their attention to Lin Zichen, scrutinizing him with a mixture of disbelief, incredulity, and curiosity.

Let's see what makes this genius from Mountain University, who follows the Pure-Blood Human Path, so special that his physical body is so powerful.

Lin Zichen felt uncomfortable under everyone's gaze, as if he were being stared at like a monkey.

Just as he was about to leave with Shen Qinghan.

Two tall figures appeared in the corridor.

It was Yuan Dongzhi and the Female Officer who arrived.

Upon seeing the Female Officer, Lu Tianrong immediately straightened up and called out, "Commander Yao."

The Female Officer didn't respond. As soon as she entered, her gaze fell on the robot stuck in the ceiling, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She saw a dent several centimeters deep in the robot's chest area.

It's a fist pit.

It was a dent created by Lin Zichen's punch.

To punch such a dent into a robot made of B-Grade Alloy, one would need at least the strength of a normal Tier 9.

How could a Freshman who came to participate in special training unleash the power of an ordinary Tier 9?

That's outrageous!

Thinking about it, the Female Officer looked at Lin Zichen and asked with great curiosity, "Your Biological Rank is clearly only Ordinary Rank 8, so why can you unleash power as high as ordinary Tier 9?"

Lin Zichen was tired of answering this question.

He had to explain it to each person who came by.

Although it was annoying, the person asking this question was a high-ranking leader in the Military District, so he could only patiently answer, "I am born with superhuman strength, and with the Blood Tempering Technique enhancing my explosive power, I can unleash power comparable to an ordinary Tier 9 expert."

Can Blood Tempering Technique increase explosive power?

The Female Officer raised an eyebrow; it was the first time she had heard this.

Beside her, Yuan Dongzhi first glanced at the robot on the ceiling, then looked at Lin Zichen, and couldn't help but fall into a moment of self-doubt.

Is Liu Chuanwu's philosophy correct?

Is Pure-Blood Human Path truly the future of humankind?

Is it truly possible for someone with Pure-Blood Human body to break free from the constraints of ordinary creatures?

With mixed feelings, Yuan Dongzhi said to Lin Zichen, "Zichen, come with me."

After saying that, she turned and left the room, heading out of the building.

Seeing this, Lin Zichen followed.

Shen Qinghan followed closely behind.

The Female Officer didn't stay in the room either; she quickly followed them out.

Only a group of people remained, looking at each other, then at the cracked ceiling above them, which seemed about to collapse at any moment, feeling a sense of unreality.

Lu Tianrong looked at everyone and said, "Alright, everyone disperse, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch."

"You can rest for the rest of the day. After dinner, go to the medical building for treatment on your own."

"The treatment is free. Eat well and go get your treatment done as soon as possible. Don't delay, or you'll miss tomorrow's special training."

"Meet on the playground at the same time tomorrow morning."

After saying this, Lu Tianrong leaped up and retrieved the robot that was stuck in the ceiling. He then quickly left the room to find someone to deal with the damaged robot.

After he left, the people in the room started talking again.

Everyone was talking about Lin Zichen.

Many people gathered around Li Moyu, Luo Yongjian, and Ma Xiwei, hoping to get more information about Lin Zichen from them.
