Uchiha Matsuzaki's mouth twitched slightly after hearing what Chestnut Snow had just said, and he thought to himself, This girl is no simple character!

After the two of them exchanged a few brief words, they stood in the spectator area to watch the matches that followed.

Compared to the battle Uchiha Matsuzaki had just fought, the remaining matches really felt like children playing at fighting.

"Matsuzaki, come clean. What kind of training did you do during all those days at home to make your strength increase so much?"

Yamamoto Takeshi turned his head to look at Uchiha Matsuzaki and whispered.

Uchiha Matsuzaki shook his head and said, "I didn't do any deliberate training. I just went for runs and wandered around to a few places. That's really all it was."

Anyone who heard Uchiha Matsuzaki's answer would feel like he was just brushing them off, but there was nothing they could do; if he wouldn't say it himself, they couldn't force it out of him.

"Fine, fine. Since you won't say, I can't do anything about it. But I still have to congratulate you on finally getting your revenge," Yamamoto Takeshi said with a sigh.

Uchiha Matsuzaki also shook his head helplessly. Everything he had just said was the truth; after all, the locations for his check-ins were always different, and as long as he checked in at a certain place, he could obtain corresponding strength.

However, he was the only one who could use this method to improve his own power.

After an hour of competition, the entire class finally finished their battles. At this time, the teacher divided the whole class into several groups, placing people of similar strength into the same group.

Uchiha Matsuzaki and Chestnut Snow were in the same group, and he had been made the group leader.

Upon returning to the classroom, the members of Uchiha Matsuzaki's group all crowded around him.

The battle he had just fought was enough to make these group members submit to him.

Although this battle had washed away his past humiliations, it had also brought him some trouble.

His group members kept surrounding him, asking what the secret to his success was, and how he had suddenly become so powerful when his strength had been so weak before!

Uchiha Matsuzaki kept brushing them off; after all, the secret of his check-in system could not be let out to others.

"How is it?" Chestnut Snow asked at this moment.

Uchiha Matsuzaki looked very confused. "How is what?"

"Of course, how does it feel to be a big star? Today's battle has instantly made you the most popular person in our class."

Chestnut Snow said with a smile.

"I thought it was something else. Obviously, I don't like this feeling, and the members of our group keep pestering me, which makes me feel very troubled."

Uchiha Matsuzaki shook his head helplessly.

Chestnut Snow just smiled and did not give any answer.

At this moment, Uchiha Matsuzaki suddenly remembered that he had also received a reward for his check-in today. Because the situation had been a bit special at the time, he hadn't had the chance to check it.

"This is the Sage Body?"

"Possessing a body like this is comparable to the chakra of a Tailed Beast. It also has unimaginable recovery abilities, and my physical constitution has become extremely strong, with stamina that is truly extraordinary."

"It seems this can provide a reasonable explanation for what happened earlier."

Uchiha Matsuzaki thought to himself.

He hadn't felt very tired after the match earlier, and he had been able to recover to his original state in a short amount of time. It seemed all of this was due to the Sage Body.

After figuring these things out, he felt that there was already some energy within his body that surpassed that of an ordinary person.

Obtaining the Sage Body this time had once again significantly boosted his strength.
