In Li Yu's eyes, these were talents rushing towards him; these guys took up weapons, and their entire demeanor changed in that instant.

Everyone had killed many monsters in the Dungeon before, and they all remembered what that feeling was like. Now, everyone was directly targeting Li Yu as a boss.

These guys rushed forward like thugs hacking and slashing in the streets years ago, which left Li Yu speechless. Couldn't they at least organize their attack?

As Li Yu mentally complained, energy enveloped his entire body, and he charged forward. Liu Hui was still at the forefront, raising his training knife and slashing at Li Yu.

The energy wrapped around Li Yu's hand had now materialized, like a suit of armor, and Li Yu reached out to block the opponent's attack.

The training knife struck Li Yu's left hand as if it were striking a rock, producing a metallic clanging sound. With a sharp "thud," the recoil sent a shiver down Liu Hu's spine.

"Hiss..." Is it that hard? Is this the True Qi release of the fourth level? Liu Hui has finally witnessed it. But the next moment, he felt a pain in his stomach and was sent flying.

Li Yu blocked the opponent's attack with his left hand, while his right hand delivered a powerful punch to the opponent's stomach, sending him flying. The punch nearly made the opponent vomit.

After knocking the unlucky Liu Hui away, Li Yu continued to deal with the attacks from the others. These guys were quite troublesome once they were armed, and they all rushed at him at once.

Li Yu kept dealing with these classmates, maximizing his senses and constantly dodging the sneak attacks that appeared from all around. Having a weapon and not having one are two completely different things.

He discovered that many people's talents were focused on weapon use, because Li Yu copied a lot of their weapon-related talents during battles.

If Li Yu were to integrate these talents a little, he could even create Mastery of All Weapons... Suddenly thinking of this, Li Yu's eyes lit up; it didn't seem impossible.

By fusing so many talents, you can Mastery of All Weapons. Furthermore, if you create similar talents in the future, you can simply fuse them in. Otherwise, organizing so many talents would be incredibly troublesome.

With this in mind, Li Yu began to combine other similar talents, copying his classmates' talents and moves.

At this moment, Li Yu was like a fairy dancing among the flowers. Asuna, Yukinoshita, and the others did not launch an attack rashly, but kept observing.

"Did you guys notice? That guy is getting stronger and stronger... and his perception is just too outrageous! He can detect someone attacking from behind immediately!" Asuna looked at Li Yu with a bewildered expression.

She was already frightened by Li Yu's rapid progress. She had thought that once everyone got their weapons, they would pose some threat to Li Yu.

As a result, she kept observing Li Yu and discovered that he was constantly getting stronger, even though he was learning from his classmates. She felt that this was not a training program for them.

Instead... she was feeding Li Yu experience points, watching Li Yu grow stronger and stronger. Asuna was completely dumbfounded. If this continued, Li Yu alone would be equivalent to the combined strength of the entire class...

"Beat him up!" Upon hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita gritted her teeth and decisively chose to attack. Since the opponent was constantly learning, they couldn't wait any longer!

If she didn't beat them up now, she wouldn't have another chance. Who knows what kind of monster they'd raise after today? With that thought in mind, Yukino Yukinoshita charged forward.

Asuna, Asuna hurriedly called Kato Megumi to follow. With the help of Kato Megumi's talent, the three of them silently charged forward, which was as silent as they perceived it.

While the surrounding classmates didn't notice, it was quite conspicuous in Li Yu's eyes. However, Li Yu simply pretended not to see it and decided to wait until they got closer.

The three of them suddenly joined the battle. Asuna and Yukino Yukinoshita quickly attacked, slashing at Li Yu Li Yu's arm, intending to injure it.

If Li Yu's arm is injured, then the opponent's strength will definitely be affected. The two seized a pretty good opportunity and thought they would succeed this time.

Li Yu's figure suddenly vanished, causing their attacks to miss instantly. This surprised Asuna and Yukinoshita for a moment; what kind of explosive speed was that?

Before the two behind them could think any further, they heard Kato Megumi's voice and quickly swung their swords behind them. With a clang, they retreated swiftly.

Because they clearly understood that Li Yu had blocked their attack and couldn't break through Li Yu defenses at all. As the two retreated, the others instantly filled in.

Seeing this, Li Yu had no choice but to abandon Asuna and Yukinoshita and focus on dealing with the students who rushed up. They had been fighting for a while and were gradually getting along better.

As soon as one student lay down, another immediately took their place, keeping Li Yu busy dealing with the situation. In particular, the stronger students all took the initiative to ensure that they wouldn't be eliminated immediately.

Then they were made the main DPS to attack Li Yu. With this kind of cooperation, everyone played better and better. Seeing that these classmates were gradually becoming more and more coordinated, Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded in satisfaction from the sidelines.

She was especially pleased that several students had broken through their limits under Li Yu's pressure, since the main purpose of this lesson was to help those who hadn't been able to break through to the third tier.

Li Yu was aware of this, and he showed mercy to those second-tier students; otherwise, these guys would probably have been lying on the ground the moment they touched Li Yu.

By the end, all the students in the class were injured, but the results were quite good. Those who needed to break through had broken through, and the class's teamwork was also developed. Moreover, Li Yu also learned some of the talents of these students.

"Okay, let's stop for a bit and take a break. You did a great job!" Seeing that it was about time, Shizuka Hiratsuka immediately called for a halt, telling everyone to rest and that those who needed treatment should go get it done, and they could continue later.

Upon hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief, and some even collapsed to the ground. None of the students in the class were unharmed; they all looked like they had just rolled on the ground and gotten up.

The girls' hair was messy, or their faces were covered in bruises. Even Asuna and the others couldn't avoid it; their delicate faces were marked with some marks.

The boys were in an even worse state. Several of them had their teeth knocked out by Li Yu, and now they were covering their faces, which were swollen like pig heads, and using their True Qi Healing them. It was truly a miserable sight!

Li Yu only had a few marks on his body, which were inflicted by Asuna and Yukino Yukinoshita from behind, but they did not cause Li Yu any real damage.

Everyone couldn't help but grin as they watched Li Yu act as if nothing had happened. It was truly unbelievable. They were all classmates, yet Li Yu had completely left them behind; they were on completely different levels.

In particular, everyone was using their talents, but it was completely ineffective against this guy. Xia Yu, in particular, was very confused; what use was her talent anyway?

"Li Yu, I'm so confused!" She looked at Li Yu, who seemed completely unaffected, and couldn't help but say this as well.

Hearing her words, Li Yu looked at her with a puzzled expression and said, "I didn't hit your head, so how did it break? What's wrong with you?"

Li Yu was puzzled. He didn't remember hitting the other person on the head, so why did it suddenly break down? Or did it cause him to have emoji?

"Well, I feel like my talent is pretty useless. Look... even if I use my talent, I still can't keep up with your speed!" Xia Yu sighed. This was what frustrated her the most.

She attempted to ambush him several times, but Li Yu easily dodged them all, and she was then beaten up. The speed she unleashed using her talent was actually not as fast as Li Yu's.

How could this not frustrate her? That's why she's now starting to doubt whether her talent is really useful, which is incredibly frustrating.

"Oh, I see. Well, it's alright then. Who told me to be so strong? As the saying goes, the stronger you are, the more talented you are. Believe in yourself, you're destined to become a woman of light!" Li Yu comforted him with these words before turning and leaving.

"What do you mean, 'become a woman of light'? Do you think I've never seen Ultraman? Damn it!!" Hearing Li Yu's calm words, Xia Yu couldn't help but complain, and then hurriedly got up to recover her strength.

However, she felt much better. Li Yu was right. The stronger one is, the more talented one is. Just wait, one day she will make Li Yu unable to catch her tail!

Hiratsuka Shizuka took out her phone and called the school doctor. Soon after, several doctors in white coats arrived. They were school doctors that the school had specially invited back.

It was specifically for treating students, Hiratsuka Shizuka was too lazy to make the students run over. Instead, she had someone come and treat them on-site. Special Class do have this kind of authority.

The two school doctors who arrived at the scene immediately took action. The boys went to the male school doctor for treatment, and the girls went to the female school doctor. In just over ten minutes, all the students' injuries were healed.

The rest will recover with rest, but they won't take care of things like knocked-out teeth; the students will have to get those fixed themselves.

After recovering, the male students were still grinning, unaware that their speech had started to slur, which made many people want to laugh but feel embarrassed.

"You can train on your own from now on, or you can train with me if you want. Of course, you can also continue to find Li Yu!" Seeing that everyone had recovered, Hiratsuka Shizuka continued to make arrangements.

Hearing this, everyone pretended not to hear. Hiratsuka Shizuka was out of the question, and finding Li Yu was even more impossible—never in this lifetime. They didn't want to be beaten up again.

"It's a pity, it seems no one wants to fight me. Well then, Li Yu, you fight me!" Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at her classmates who were all looking elsewhere, and she was also filled with regret.

But it's okay, there's another good one in the class. Seeing Li Yu beat up those classmates, she's itching to join in. Since she can't beat up so many people, she'll just beat up Li Yu instead.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look. Hiratsuka Shizuka and Li Yu fighting? That's a great idea! Everyone wants to see Li Yu get beaten up.

All eyes turned to Li Yu. So, what choice would Li Yu make now? Teacher Hiratsuka Shizuka's strength was already at the Sixth Tier.

Li Yu is only at the fourth rank, two ranks lower than him. Would he agree? The answer is... Li Yu agreed, and his eyes lit up. He had tried his best to defeat him before but failed.

This time, Li Yu wanted to see if he could win even if he went all out. With that in mind, Li Yu said directly, "Okay, I'm fine with it."

Seeing that Li Yu agreed immediately, Shizuka Hiratsuka's eyes lit up. After thinking for a moment, she continued, "In that case, I'll suppress my strength to the fourth rank and fight you. What do you think?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka's lips curled up slightly. She wouldn't bully Li Yu anymore; she would just suppress her strength to the fourth rank as well. That should be fine, right?

She underestimated Li Yu. Upon hearing her words, Li Yu directly refused, saying, "Fourth rank is out of the question. I feel that if it's fourth rank, you might not be able to beat me, Master Hei. How about Fifth Tier? If that's not possible, I'll even go all out. I want to test my limits!"

Sometimes, level doesn't represent true combat power. Besides, Li Yu now possesses so many talents. If he still can't inflict any damage on Shizuka Hiratsuka, then Li Yu should just go home and grow sweet potatoes!

"Good lad, quite confident. In that case, I'll suppress it to the Fifth Tier." Shizuka Hiratsuka was not angry at Li Yu's answer; on the contrary, she became excited.

She had witnessed Li Yu's entire battle, and to be honest, she was quite curious about how far he could go if he went all out. With that in mind, she simply agreed.

"Shall we begin?" Seeing this, Li Yu also cracked his knuckles, and a series of popping sounds rang out, his fighting spirit already burning.

"Wait a minute, you guys go to the second floor and keep watch. This isn't where you're supposed to stay from now on!" Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't rush to start, but instead sent all the students back to the second floor of the teaching building.

Fifth Tier battle, if fought with full force, is terrifying. She didn't want her students to suddenly die from an unknown area-of-effect attack. Hiratsuka Shizuka's words also prompted the students to take action.

Everyone rushed to the foot of the teaching building and jumped to the second floor, where they watched from the railing. Everyone was really looking forward to the battle between Li Yu Shizuka Hiratsuka.

After everyone had gone back, Shizuka Hiratsuka waved to Li Yu and said, "Let's stay away from each other. We don't want them to tear down the teaching building; I can't afford to pay for that!"

As she spoke, she walked to the center of the playground. There were hardly any people on the playground, and this area was reserved for their Special Class. Generally, no students would come here to exercise.

However, from here, you can see several school buildings. As expected, the commotion caused by the two's fight will instantly attract the attention of many students.

Although it was during class time, that didn't stop the students from being curious and watching. When Shizuka Hiratsuka and Li Yu stood in the middle of the playground, some people were already paying attention.

Or rather, many people have been paying attention ever since Li Yu beat up his classmates; the scene of Li Yu taking on the entire class by himself was witnessed by many.

Seeing the two people below, many students were puzzled. What were they doing? The thought had barely formed in their minds when they realized: it was a battle between a teacher and students!
