Lu Qingchan: You weren't like this with me before!

Immediately after the principal finished speaking, someone asked a question.

"Principal, my Blood Qi Value has now exceeded 200, meeting the recruitment standard for the Genius Training Camp. Do I have to wait until the recruitment period ends, which is after February 10th of next year, before I can enter the Genius Training Camp?"

The principal explained, "No, each session of the Genius Training Camp is divided into two batches, one before the New Year and one after the New Year."

Even if it's a batch after the New Year, you don't have to wait until after February 10th.

The reason the conscription period was set so late was because the Provincial Governor wanted to give a chance to those Martial Arts Student whose Blood Qi Value were slightly below the passing grade.

Students, you must make the most of the spots in the Genius Training Camp. You are all the top elites in our school, and I don't want to see any of you fall behind.

The Genius Training Camp is one of the few opportunities in your martial arts career that can change your destiny.

Successfully qualifying for the Genius Training Camp means joining the ranks of Blue Star's martial arts geniuses and receiving intensive training from the Blue Star government.

The probability of getting into Blue Star University in the future is over 70%.

Those who participate in the Genius Training Camp Genius Training Camp those who don't will face two very different lives from now on. Students are urged to take this very seriously.

Your martial arts competition rewards will be presented to you by staff later.

The top ten in this martial arts competition, regardless of their Blood Qi Value, will automatically receive a spot in the Genius Training Camp.

This is a newly issued explicit regulation from the provincial government and the Dongchuan Province Martial Artist Association.

At that time, people from the provincial government will personally visit your home to offer their condolences and sign a series of confidentiality agreements. You should be mentally prepared for that.

After the principal finished speaking, he asked the twenty students present to go and receive their awards.

Chen Lie, along with many other students, went to receive their martial arts competition rewards.

Because Chen Lie won first place in the martial arts competition, the staff chose to award Chen Lie the prize first.

"Chen Lie, you have won first place in the Campus Martial Arts Competition. The reward should be ten million Star Dollar in Martial Arts Incentive Fund, twenty catties of Tier 2 Exotic Beast meat, and a Martial Dao Rare Treasure."

"But you just suggested to the school leaders that we replace the Martial Dao Rare Treasure with a 478-year-old Blood Head Polygonum), isn't that good?"

Chen Lie nodded. "Yes."

"Alright, here are your rewards for the martial arts competition: twenty catties of Tier 2 Exotic Beast meat, a 478-year-old Blood Head Polygonum multiflorum, and a Free Star Dollar Card worth ten million Star Dollar."

As the staff member spoke, they handed over all of Chen Lie's reward.

After receiving his reward, Chen Lie left the reward distribution hall.

"Chen Lie, stop right there!"

As soon as Chen Lie stepped out of the hall, he heard a clear and melodious voice.

Chen Lie turned around and saw Lu Qingchan carrying an exquisite gift bag, quickly catching up with him.

When Lu Qingchan walked in, Chen Lie asked, "Is there something you need?"

Lu Qingchan stopped in front of Chen Lie, tiptoeing, and said, "That—before, it was because your grades were too bad..."

I pretended not to give you the Green Bubble so you wouldn't be distracted while you were improving your grades. Don't misunderstand.

Chen Lie hummed in agreement. "Is there anything else?"

Lu Qingchan continued, "Your strength couldn't have suddenly increased, could it? Why did you hide it from me and your aunt and uncle before?"

"I have my reasons," Chen Lie replied.

"Um—are you really Divine Sense Master?" Lu Qingchan asked again.

"Yes."

"I've heard that Divine Sense Master are all martial arts geniuses, learning a martial art ten times faster than ordinary people. Is that really true?"

"It's ten times faster than the average person, but only one or two times faster than a martial arts genius. Compared to exceptionally talented martial arts geniuses, it might even be inferior."

"I see. What if a Divine Sense Master is originally a martial arts genius?" Lu Qingchan asked.

"Having Divine Sense can indeed enhance a person's comprehension and learning abilities, but there are limits. Becoming Divine Sense Master doesn't directly multiply a person's aptitude by ten."

"I see."

Lu Qingchan then realized that she had originally thought that Divine Sense Master would simply multiply a person's aptitude tenfold without any difference.

"If there's nothing else, I'm leaving now."

Lu Qingchan couldn't help but say, "Chen Lie, why are you like this now? You didn't treat me like this before!"

"Oh? What was my attitude before?" Chen Lie asked in return.

"You used to—" Lu Qingchan was about to blurt it out, but suddenly snorted, "You know very well what your attitude was before."

"Why are you asking me?"

"I have other things to do and don't have time to chat with you. If you're really bored, you can go to the Martial Arts Hall to practice."

After Chen Lie finished speaking, he turned and left.

Seeing Chen Lie leave without looking back after saying just one sentence, Lu Qingchan gritted her teeth and stomped her foot.

The School Martial Competition lasted almost the entire day, and by the time Chen Lie left the school gate, it was already quite late.

So as soon as Chen Lie left the school gate, he took the Flying Bus home.

Back home, Chen Lie put the competition rewards in his room.

Then I went to the living room.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Chen Lie turned on the TV and randomly selected a channel to watch experts analyze martial arts.

The martial arts experts on Blue Star were just putting on a show; in Chen Lie's opinion, their explanations of martial arts were completely incomprehensible.

Not long after, the door was pushed open, and Chen Xingyao returned home.

Seeing Chen Lie sitting on the sofa watching TV, she immediately asked, "Brother, today is the School Martial Competition competition. How many rounds have you made it through?"

"First!" Chen Lie said.

"They were eliminated in the very first round?"

"He's number one!"

"First place? How is that possible? It's said that many of the top ten students on the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking have Blood Qi Value exceeding 200. To win first place, you must have overwhelming strength. Is your Blood Qi Value higher than theirs?" Chen Xingyao couldn't help but ask.

Chen Lie said, "The level of Blood Qi Value doesn't mean anything. If we only judge people by their Blood Qi Value, then we might as well not report this martial arts competition and just test everyone's Blood Qi Value."

"It's hard to tell the difference when the Blood Qi Value are similar, but if the Blood Qi Value is too great, the difference will be immediately apparent."

"You can check the school's official WeChat account; there should be a list of the martial arts competition results there," Chen Lie suggested, not bothering to explain further.

Chen Xingyao took out his Communicator from his pocket, opened the school's official Weibo account, and sure enough, saw that the school's official Weibo account had posted an article half an hour earlier.

"The year-end martial arts competition of the 7364th year of the Galactic Calendar has successfully concluded, and the list of the top ten has been released."

"Among them, Chen Lie from Elite Class 5 outshone all others and won first place. For details of the martial arts competition, please tune in to East River Satellite TV's prime-time Martial Way Theater at 8 PM one week later."

After reading this article, Chen Xingyao was utterly astonished.

"Brother, you really won first place in the martial arts competition?"

"Isn't it on the school's official WeChat account?" Chen Lie asked back.

"Yes, there is, but I heard that the top Elite Student Top 100 Ranking has held the number one spot for almost a year, and their Blood Qi Value is likely to be 300."

"Ka, if you want to win the championship, you'll definitely have to defeat him eventually. How much Blood Qi Value?" Chen Xingyao couldn't help but ask.

Chen Lie thought for a moment and said, "Around two hundred calories."

He now has martial arts resources at his disposal, but he hasn't had a chance to use them yet. Once he uses them all, his qi and blood will naturally be enhanced, so reporting more in advance won't be a mistake.

Chen Xingyao incredulous. "When did your Blood Qi Value become so high?"

"Recent."

After his Chen Xingyao went to the sofa and asked, "That doesn't make sense either. Even if your Blood Qi Value exceeded 200, the top student on the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking has 300 Blood Qi Value. How did you defeat him?"

"As I just said, the level of Blood Qi Value doesn't mean anything."

A difference of 100 units of Blood Qi Value doesn't mean anything.

Chen Xingyao didn't believe it and was about to ask again when she suddenly thought of something.

"Etc!

If you win first place in the martial arts competition, wouldn't you get the rewards for winning first place?

I remember the prize for first place in this martial arts competition was about ten million Star Dollar.

As he spoke, Chen Xingyao picked up the Communicator and logged onto the school's official website to check the rewards for first place in the martial arts competition.

"One rare Martial Dao Rare Treasure, twenty catties of Tier 2 Exotic Beast meat, and ten million Star Dollar Martial Arts Incentive Fund."

Chen Xingyao exclaimed excitedly, "Brother, you're a multi-millionaire now! What about your prize for winning first place in the martial arts competition?"

"In my room." After saying that, Chen Lie added:

"Ten million Star Dollar are certainly enough for a comfortable life, but if used for martial arts cultivation, it would be a stretch."

Chen Xingyao said, "That's enough for a long time. The most expensive Spirit Medicine only cost a few hundred thousand Star Dollar coins each, and we can divide them into several batches to make Spirit Medicine and beast meat dishes."

Chen Lie knew that his younger sister's martial arts level was too low at the moment, and she had never seen many priceless martial arts resources.

Once her Blood Qi Value approaches four digits, she'll realize that ten million Star Dollar Essence is nothing in the end.

Chen Xingyao sat down on the sofa next to Chen Lie.

She felt a sense of unreality; her brother was no longer a martial arts failure, but had actually transformed into the school's number one martial arts genius?

Not long after, her mother, Feng Yuelan, returned home.

When Chen Xingyao saw her mother, she immediately went to greet her, "Mom, you're back?"

Feng Yuelan nodded and said, "Yes, I got back a little late today. Are you hungry? I'll go prepare dinner for you in a bit."

"Mom, don't cook yet. I have some news to tell you, but don't be scared."

"What news?" Feng Yuelan curiously.

"That's right, our school's year-end Martial Arts Grand Competition is usually a competition for elite Elite Student, and you won first place, brother?" Chen Xingyao said.

Feng Yuelan nodded and said "Oh," then casually asked, "Your brother won the first one? That must have been a competition with very few participants, right?"

"This Martial Arts Grand Competition is a school-wide event. The school started preparing for this annual martial arts talent competition half a month ago. The students participating in this Martial Arts Grand Competition are at least in the top ten of their classes. My brother won first place in the competition, so he is truly the number one in the whole school!" Chen Xingyao explained.
