Don't Hit Someone in the Face or Expose Their Weaknesses

Yao Lu witnessed this scene and turned to leave.

Chen Lie glanced around the line and found that the two or three hundred people were neatly arranged, with only a few empty seats in the first row. Just as he was about to move over, a girl in the middle of the front row glanced at Chen Lie and said indifferently, "These seats are taken. Go to the back."

Chen Lie didn't suspect anything, nodded, and walked to the back to find a random spot.

As soon as I joined the line, a boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes came over and asked me a question.

"Dude, what's your relationship with President Yao?"

Chen Lie glanced at the boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes and said, "It's nothing, I don't know him."

"You don't know the Chief Instructor, so why would he give you special treatment and include you in the first wave of the second batch of Special Enrollment Student Genius Training Camp report to Blue Star University?"

Chen Lie said, "It was through an elder's introduction."

"If your relationship isn't strong enough, the Chief Instructor definitely won't make an exception for you. As far as I know, there are several people from other provinces who want to join our first batch of students to report to Blue Star University. They've been asking around for connections, but none of them have succeeded. The fact that you can get the Chief Instructor to send you over personally means you have a stronger relationship than those people."

My name is Huang Yuande. To be honest, the Chief Instructor is actually my uncle. It's usually hard for my dad to get anything done from him. If your elders can get my uncle to help, they must all be on the same side. Where are you from? What's your name?

"Three Provinces of Chuanzhong, Chen Lie!"

"Chuanzhong? Wow, such a barren place?"

Your elders must have some really strong connections; they actually managed to get you a job in our Hunan-Guangdong province.

Those of us in the first wave to report to Blue Star University were able to choose our best tutors; those who came after us were assigned randomly.

"Oh, I see."

Chen Lie nodded. He didn't really care about this. There was probably no one on Blue Star who could guide his martial arts cultivation, after all, he still had the insights of Grandmaster from his previous life.

Furthermore, the Grandmaster of the Central Galactic Empire and the Grandmaster of Blue Star are practically two different species, completely incomparable, like a python and a grass snake.

Although Chen Lie in his previous life was at the bottom of the Ninth-Order Martial Artist ranks in the Central Galactic Empire, he was by no means comparable to Grandmaster on Blue Star.

"In your Chuanzhong Province, how many points of Blood Qi Value to get into the Genius Training Camp?" Huang Yuande asked.

Two hundred calories is fine.

"Two hundred calories? That's five times less than us! Our Hunan-Guangdong Province's Genius Training Camp's recruitment standard is 1..."

000 calories of Blood Qi Value.

Compared to that, life is definitely easier in your Chuanzhong Province.

Huang Yuande pondered for a moment and realized that the members of the Genius Group from Chuanzhong Province were significantly weaker than most of the Genius Training Camp participants from Hunan and Guangdong Provinces.

At this moment, the instructor at the front began to speak.

"Class, please be quiet!"

After the instructor's voice rang out, the two or three hundred students present quieted down.

"Our group heading to Blue Star University now numbers 319 people in total."

Around 12:30 PM, someone from Blue Star University will come to pick you up. You still have a little over an hour; you can have lunch at the restaurant next door and then meet here.

"Furthermore, because there are 319 people on this trip, and the group is quite large and diverse, the training camp will select one student to lead the team."

The instructor pondered for a moment, then looked at the beautiful girl at the front and said, "Chi Naixue, among all the trainees in the Genius Training Camp, you should be the strongest. You will be in charge of leading the team."

"Yes!"

The beautiful girl in front nodded slightly.

"Classmates, the training camp has decided to appoint Chi Naixue as the team leader. Everyone must follow Chi Naixue's instructions, understand?"

"Clear!"

More than three hundred people responded in unison, their voices ringing out loudly.

"Alright, let's dismiss everyone now. Take this time to eat lunch, and meet back here in an hour."

After the instructor finished making the announcement, the more than 300 students in the Genius Training Camp dispersed.

"Chi Naixue, come here for a moment."

Chi Naixue walked lightly to the instructor and asked softly, "Instructor, is there something you need?"

"The boy that the Chief Instructor brought over just now is named Chen Lie."

Go and collect his Special Enrollment Letter from Blue Star University, and have him fill out a form so that the people coming down from Blue Star University can review it.

"Okay, I understand!"

Chi Naixue nodded.

As soon as the instructor announced the dismissal, Huang Yuande Chen Liedao, "Chen Lie, you were brought here by my uncle. We're all family here. Let me treat you to a meal."

Right next door is the canteen of our Hunan-Guangdong Provincial Genius Group training camp. See if there's any difference between it and your Chuanzhong Province.

Chen Lie nodded and said, "Okay, thank you very much."

"Don't mention it, it's just a meal, I can afford it."

Chen Lie followed the crowd and went to the restaurant next door with Huang Yuande.

Upon reaching the restaurant's serving window, Huang Yuande immediately ordered, "Two servings of fourth-tier Spirit Herb Beast Meat Meal."

After speaking, Huang Yuande turned to Chen Liedao and asked, "Chen Lie, how much Blood Qi Value? Can you withstand the Exotic Beast Meat?"

"No problem." Chen Lie waved his hand.

"Okay!" Huang Yuande turned around and added, "Two more bottles of Vitality Drink, please!"

The staff at the food counter directly served two portions of Spirit Herb Beast Meat Meal, and then took out two crystal bottles of drinks.

After Huang Yuande paid by facial recognition, he and Chen Lie went to a table to eat.

"Chen Lie, try this Vitality Drink. It's a good thing, imported from Outer Stars. Drinking it regularly can stabilize the purity of your Qi and blood. When you practice, if your Blood Qi Value increase too quickly, your Strength Value may not keep up and could decline slightly. Drinking this regularly can ensure that your Strength Value doesn't decline."

This thing is only found in the top twenty provinces of Blue Star. You people from Chuanzhong Province probably haven't seen this before, have you?

Chen Lie shook his head. "I've never seen it before."

"Then you should try it!"

Chen Lie took the crystal bottle of beverage, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip. As soon as the beverage entered his stomach, Chen Lie instantly felt a peculiar energy that began to slowly nourish his blood and qi.

This slow nourishment is imperceptible to the body, but Chen Lie's divine sense can perceive it very clearly.

"Indeed excellent!"

After taking a sip, Chen Lie put the drink down.

He realized that it was no wonder there was such a big gap between the top-ranked and the bottom-ranked provinces in his previous life; this drink alone was enough to explain it.

People in the Chuanzhong Province have never even seen, let alone drunk, such a wonderful Outer Stars product.

"This Vitality Drink only shows its effects after drinking it regularly for more than a month. Blue Star University should have plenty of these," Huang Yuande said.

Chen Lie nodded and began eating the meat dish in front of him.

At that moment, a beautiful girl with wispy bangs and a bun hairstyle walked over.

The girl's pure and pretty face was expressionless as she walked to Chen Lie's dining table and tapped the table twice with her fair little hand.

Huang Yuande was taken aback and looked at the girl. "Senior Chi, is there something you need?"

The beautiful girl said in a cool voice, "I'm not here to see you. Also, don't call me 'senior sister'."

Huang Yuande gave an awkward smile, then he was puzzled. She wasn't looking for him? Then why was she banging on his dining table?

Chi Naixue looked at Chen Lie and said expressionlessly, "Are you Chen Lie?"

"I am Chen Lie, and you are?"

Chen Lie looked at the outstandingly beautiful girl.

Huang Yuande coughed twice, then said with great emotion, "This is the number one among our more than four hundred students in the Genius Training Camp, the Flower of Xiangguang Province with both perfect strength and beauty, Chi Naixue."

"Shut up!"

Chi Naixue glared at Huang Yuande, then looked at Chen Lie and said, "My name is Chi Naixue. I'm here on the instructor's orders to collect your Blue Star University Special Enrollment Letter, and there's a form you need to fill out."

As she spoke, Chi Naixue placed a form in front of Chen Lie.

"OK."

Chen Lie glanced at the information form, then asked Chi Naixue for a pen and began filling in the information.

Chen Lie quickly filled in all the basic information.

When he got to the section on martial arts strength, Chen Lie hesitated.

He asked Huang Yuande, "What is the typical skill level of the trainees in your Xiangguang Province Genius Training Camp?"

"Those with Blood Qi Value of over 1,000 calories, reaching the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm, are all included," Huang Yuande said.

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Chen Lie immediately filled in the Martial Arts Realm column with: Blood-Qi Extreme Realm, Blood Qi Value 3000 kcal, Strength Value 5x.

Upon seeing the information Chen Lie filled out, Huang Yuande couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, buddy, you're really good at bragging! Three thousand calories of Blood Qi Value, five times the Strength Value, and you call that the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm? Are there any people this awesome in Chuanzhong Province?"

"What? Is that an exaggeration?"

"That's more than an exaggeration! Your Blood Qi Value 3,000 calories, and your Strength Value is five times higher. Doesn't that mean you've already reached the Six Steps of Body Refining Tendon Refining Period?"

"In our Xiangguang Province Genius Training Camp, you can count the number of people with your level of skill on one hand," Huang Yuande said.

"As long as it's within the normal range, it's fine."

Chen Lie didn't say much, but instead took out the Special Enrollment Letter from Blue Star University and gave it to Chi Naixue along with the information form.

Chi Naixue stared intently at Chen Lie, hesitating to take the form he offered.

After a long pause, she said in a clear voice, "Are you sure the information you filled in is correct? I'll give you one more chance to correct it. If you get to Blue Star University and your actual martial arts level is found to be inconsistent during the entrance examination, you will bear the consequences."

Chen Lie said, "I know."

Chi Naixue said nothing more, snatched the form and Special Enrollment Letter from Chen Lie, and turned to leave.

"Dude, if you exaggerate your abilities like that and get caught at Blue Star University, the consequences will be pretty serious, right?"

Seeing Chi Naixue leave, Huang Yuande couldn't help but ask.

I didn't exaggerate.

"You're not exaggerating? If you really have that kind of ability, you should be in a league of your own in Chuanzhong Province. You would have been in the first batch to report to Blue Star University and enter the Genius Class. Why would you need to pull strings to get into Xiangguang Province?"

"Fine, believe it or not."

Chen Lie didn't explain further. In fact, he was currently in the Organ Refining Stage, but in Xiangguang Province, the Organ Refining Stage should be considered the strength of a member of the Genius Group. Filling in such information would definitely make him stand out.

"You don't have connections at Blue Star University, do you? You falsified your grades to get into a good class, so even if it's discovered later, you can get away with it because of your strong connections?"

As Huang Yuande spoke, he added, "If you really have this level of martial arts skill, you might be able to be in the same class as Chi Naixue if you go to Blue Star University."

"Oh? Is class assignment based on ability?" Chen Lie asked.

"Martial arts skills are definitely a major reference standard for class division, but they are not the only one."

Look at those remote provinces, as long as you're a member of the Genius Group and your Blood Qi Value is just over a thousand calories, you can directly enter the Genius Class at Blue Star University.

Our Hunan-Guangdong Province's Genius Training Camp has about twenty people at the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm, and they all have to obediently report from the Ordinary Class. Isn't that tough?

But there's nothing they can do about it. This is Blue Star University's way of protecting local areas. They believe that students from impoverished provinces, after enrolling in Starry Sky University, mostly demonstrate exceptional competitiveness.

The Martial Artist Association even released data showing that nearly 70% of the students from Blue Star who entered Starry Sky University and passed the Starry Sky University's examinations came from impoverished provinces.

With my Strength Value approaching two thousand calories, if I were born in an impoverished province, I could definitely get into the Genius Class at Blue Star University. Unfortunately, I was born in the twelfth-ranked province on Blue Star.

Huang Yuande shook his head and sighed.

"If you were in a poor province, you might not have the strength you have now," Chen Lie said.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore!"

Huang Yuande waved his hand and said, "Chen Lie, the one who asked you to fill out the form just now is Chi Naixue, the beauty of our Hunan-Guangdong Province's Genius Training Camp. What do you think? Isn't she pretty?"

"He looks quite good." Chen Lie nodded.

"What do you mean by 'pretty good'? Chi Naixue is the goddess of our Xiangguang Province Genius Training Camp. Her appearance and martial arts skills are both top-notch."

"Could it be that there are girls in your Chuanzhong Province who can compare to her?" Huang Yuande immediately asked.

You mean martial arts prowess?

"Of course, it's about all aspects. If we only talk about looks, wouldn't she just be a pretty face?"

Chi Naixue was firmly in first place among the students in the Genius Training Camp, with a Blood Qi Value close to 4000. I don't know much about her other aspects, but all twenty-odd students at the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm were completely inferior to her.

Huang Yuande said.

"So talented, why weren't you able to join the Hunan-Guangdong Provincial Genius Group?"

Huang Yuande glared at him. "Damn it, don't ever say things like that again. Don't you know the saying 'Don't hit someone in the face, don't insult someone by revealing their weaknesses'?"

Not being able to join the Hunan-Guangdong Provincial Genius Group is the biggest regret of Goddess Chi's life. Do you dare mention it in front of her? Believe me, you'll get your leg broken!

"Oh?"

"Alright, that's enough. Eat up, we need to go to the Drill Ground to assemble later."

Huang Yuande indeed stopped talking and lowered his head to eat voraciously.

A short while later, Chen Lie and Huang Yuande finished their meal and left the restaurant together.

Drill Ground, many members of the Hunan-Guangdong Provincial Genius Group gathered.

Around noon, a miniature Star Boat descended from the sky and landed in the Drill Ground.
