"A vertical jump of 4.2 meters from the spot? What kind of springy person is this?"

"Lifting a 690kg barbell with one hand, that punch could probably kill a cow, no, it could kill two cows."

"5.86 seconds for 100 meters, Xing Ge is awesome!"

In the classroom of Class 1, Grade 12, the students were all praising a well-built boy.

The boy's name is Chen Wuxing. He is the top student in the Elite Class. At this moment, the results of his special admissions exam for Kyoto University, which he took some time ago, came out, causing a stir among his classmates.

Just as he was enjoying everyone's exclamations, a boy from the next table leaned over and said:

"Brother Xing, I heard that Yan Shaoxuan went to the gymnasium to lecture that arrogant freshman. He's probably imitating how you disciplined him last year."

"He's not as handsome as me, and he doesn't have my charisma. He can't learn that."

Chen Wuxing said calmly.

After saying that, he got up from his seat and walked out of the classroom.

The class's discipline monitor, a girl with shoulder-length short hair, saw that he wasn't heading towards the restroom but instead walking downstairs, so she immediately chased after him and asked:

"Chen Wuxing, class is about to start, where are you going?"

"Go to the gymnasium and give some pointers, teach the second-year high school students how to educate the first-year high school students."

"Class starts in less than ten minutes, are you trying to skip it?!"

"I'm skipping class, and then what?" Chen Wuxing stopped, turned around to look at the meddlesome girl at the classroom door, and said calmly:

"I've already passed Kyoto University's special admissions exam. Even if I drop out now, I'll still be a Capital University next September. Don't try to control me with the rules you use, understand?"

After saying that, Chen Wuxing turned and walked towards the stairs.

He only left the girl with a dashing silhouette.

Inside the stadium.

Two people were standing on the Martial Platform.

One was Lin Zichen, who was responsible for defending the title, and the other was Yan Shaoxuan went on stage to challenge the champion.

The former was the dominant force in the first year of high school, while the latter was the dominant force in the second year.

This clash between the old guard and the new generation attracted a large crowd of spectators.

Many teachers who didn't have classes later came specifically to witness this epic showdown.

Who do you think will win?

"Yan Shaoxuan, I suppose."

"I think so too. Although Lin Zichen from the first year of high school has been making waves lately, single-handedly defeating most of the Class 3 Grade 2, that's still just a key class, not on the same level as the Elite Class."

"Yan Shaoxuan easily defeated an entire class last year. And then what? When he challenged Chen Wuxing, who was a year ahead of him, didn't he get completely crushed?"

"Indeed, everyone here is a top genius in the Elite Class, with similar talent levels. One more year of training will make them even better."

A group of teachers were analyzing the outcome of the match from below the stage.

The analysis results overwhelmingly show that Lin Zichen is not favored.

After all, not everyone is Wu Tiancheng, who can dominate the entire school in the first year of high school.

Furthermore, when Wu Tiancheng was a freshman in high school, the senior students in the second and third years were relatively weak, which allowed him to achieve the feat of dominating the entire school in his freshman year.

Favorable timing and geographical location are both indispensable.

On the Martial Platform.

Yan Shaoxuan put one hand in his pocket, habitually flicked his bangs that covered his eyes, and said with a smug look:

"Junior, I was just as reckless as you last year when I was a freshman in high school."

"But after I was humiliated once, I realized what it means to be outmatched and have a limitless potential."

"Today, I will give you your first lesson in life, teaching you how to be a humble and modest genius."

Last year, when he was a freshman in high school, he was incredibly arrogant. Right at the start of the semester, he single-handedly challenged an entire class of upperclassmen.

Starting from the second year of high school, he fought his way up, first through the Ordinary Class, then through the honors classes, and finally when he reached the Elite Class, he was bullied and beaten by Chen Wuxing, who was bigger and weaker, and was ruthlessly pounded on the Martial Platform.

Now that he's an older student, he's going to bully the younger geniuses and make them suffer the same humiliation he endured back then.

If I can't beat the older students, surely I can beat the younger students?

Today we must thoroughly humiliate those pretentious freshmen!

Lin Zichen had no idea that this boy named Yan Shaoxuan had so many thoughts running through his mind, and he didn't want to listen to his fatherly lecturing.

So he looked at the referee and said, "Teacher, we're all in position now, we can begin the duel."

The referee nodded, then looked at Yan Shaoxuan and asked, "Are you ready?"

"Alright," Yan Shaoxuan replied.

Upon hearing this, the referee immediately raised his right hand and swiftly brought it down, shouting, "The duel begins!"

"Junior, I suggest... Bang!"

Yan Shaoxuan wanted to give a fatherly lecture, but before he could finish speaking, Lin Zichen kicked him off the Martial Platform.

You talk too much. Hurry up and step down so someone else can come up and challenge you. Don't keep me from grinding for the Natural Selection Achievement...

After mentally grumbling to himself, Lin Zichen looked at the others below the stage and called out, "Lunch break is almost over, anyone else want to come up and challenge us?"

No one responded.

At that moment, everyone present was stunned.

What's going on?

Yan Shaoxuan was instantly defeated?

That's the reigning champion of the second year of high school, a genius who ranks among the top five in the entire school!

He was instantly defeated by a freshman with a single kick?

Are you kidding me!

How is that possible!

After a moment of shock, the entire stadium was instantly filled with incredulous discussions.

No one could believe what they had just witnessed was real; they all wondered if they were dreaming.

Yan Shaoxuan, the person involved, sat slumped on the ground with a blank expression, looking as if he had lost his soul.

Last year, when I was a junior, I was bullied and thoroughly beaten by the seniors. Now that I'm a senior, I'm being easily defeated by the juniors. So, it seems like I'm the one getting beaten up no matter what?

Lin Zichen didn't even glance at his defeated opponent, nor did he pay attention to the gasps of surprise coming from the surrounding area.

He simply looked around at the crowd below the stage and shouted:

"Anyone else want to take on the challenge? Participate for a chance to win prizes! You could win a month's supply of free bubble tea! You could win the latest iPhone!"

After calling out for a while, seeing that no one was willing to step forward, Lin Zichen looked at a bespectacled girl below the Martial Platform and asked with a smile, "Hey classmate, want to come up and exchange a few blows?"

"Huh? Um... I'm just a freshman in a general education class, I just came here to join in the fun."

"It's okay, I just came up and tried it out."

With that, Lin Zichen grabbed the bespectacled woman and lifted her onto the Martial Platform, shoved a lottery ticket into her hand, and then instantly killed her with a single move.

Natural Selection Achievement progress +1!

The female principal was somewhat stunned by what she saw.

She wondered if Lin Zichen had specifically organized an individual challenge tournament because he wanted a clash of titans.

Why are they even targeting freshmen from the general education classes who just came to join the fun?

Battle maniac?

Is it addictive?

Will a starving person eat anything?

The female principal was completely baffled.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. Just understand one thing: try your best to meet Lin Zichen's needs.

Thinking it over, the female principal immediately assigned a task to the teachers present: to organize the students who hadn't yet performed to go on stage and challenge Lin Zichen.

So, in the time that followed...

Many students who originally just came to join in the fun were forced onto the Martial Platform as if they were ducks on a shelf, only to be instantly defeated by Lin Zichen.

Watching the progress bar steadily climb, Lin Zichen was overjoyed. He thought to himself that a strong woman who could become a principal was truly different; her ability to read people far surpassed that of ordinary people.

Soon, the school bell rang, and the students said they needed to go back to class.

The female principal simply told them not to worry about it, and that if their teachers questioned them, they should say that the principal had told them to stay in the gymnasium.

"Look, Chen Wuxing is here!"

"Is he here to challenge us?"

"I didn't expect even Chen Wuxing, the top student in the school, to come and challenge us. This is going to be interesting!"

Just as the school bell rang, a commotion arose in the crowd.

Lin Zichen listened to the voices from below the stage and followed everyone's gaze to a boy walking towards them from a distance.

Chen Wuxing?

The first person in the school?

Is this a case of the older brother getting involved after the younger one has been beaten?

When the boy saw him looking over, he immediately accelerated forward, pushed off with his calves, and leaped high into the air, landing with a thud on the Martial Platform.

He made his entrance in the same way as Yan Shaoxuan had before.

The only difference is that this boy has stronger leg muscles, can jump higher, and is more handsome.

"I never expected Yan Shaoxuan to lose to you."

On the Martial Platform, Chen Wuxing looked at Lin Zichen, who was even more handsome than him, and said with a nonchalant expression.

After saying that, he quickly added, "Your strength is indeed very strong, but..."

"Teacher, we're all in position now, let's begin the duel."

Before Chen Wuxing could finish speaking, Lin Zichen interrupted him, turning to the referee beside him and saying this.

Lin Zichen couldn't be bothered to waste his time with Chen Wuxing, who seemed like another talkative show-off.

"Junior, you seem a bit impatient."

Chen Wuxing shook his head, then said with a smile, "But it's alright, I'll make sure you calm down and listen carefully after the duel begins."

More than ten seconds later.

"Bang!"

With a loud crash, the school's top student, who had just been thinking of teaching Lin Zichen a lesson, was kicked off the Martial Platform, body and soul.

For those who talk too much and hinder your Achievement in achieving the Natural Selection, just eliminate them instantly.

Ignoring the shock of those around him, Lin Zichen urged the students lining up to go on stage:

"Hey student, stop daydreaming and come up on stage."

"Oh, okay."

The boy at the very front of the line snapped out of his daze and answered.

He then went on stage to challenge, only to be instantly defeated by Lin Zichen.

From going on stage to leaving, the entire process took less than 10 seconds, emphasizing a clean and efficient approach.

"Next!"

"Come on, next one!"

"Continue!"

After playing match after match, as it approached four o'clock in the afternoon, the Achievement of "Natural Selection" was finally completed.

[In formal competitive settings, using the most primitive biological methods, a total of 1000 different competitors have been eliminated; this has been achieved.]

[Gained Biological Attribute: Natural Selection]

[Natural Selection: Increases the damage you deal to other creatures]

After reading the text information, Lin Zichen was very satisfied with the effect of the Biological Attribute of Natural Selection.

A simple and straightforward damage-increasing attribute.

Very practical.

The only drawback is that it doesn't specify how much damage it can increase, which is quite vague.
