Chu Shanhe is a star high school student. He is very famous and even has his own fan group. United High School's students have also heard of him.

"Chu Shanhe..." Mentioning this name, Yu Peiling felt dazed for a moment, seeming to recall some unpleasant experiences.

She paused, and her eyes became a little complicated. "I have played against almost all the masters from the nearby No. 1 Middle School, and Chu Shanhe is the one that impressed me the most."

"We have competed several times, and several times we simulated battles at the same level, but the result was no doubt in doubt."

She looked at the students around her and said word by word, "Even if the energy level is exactly the same, I am no match for him. I have never won once, and the best case scenario is just to support a few more moves."

There was a gasp of cold air all around.

They knew the strength of Yu Peiling, but at the same level, they didn't even win a single victory against Chu Shanhe?

"His martial arts skills are so strong." Yu Peiling explained, with a hint of admiration in his voice, "He has a nickname called "Little Eight Absolutes". There is nothing he can't do, including fists, palms, legs, steps, knives, swords, spears, shields... and there is no one he is not good at."

"He seems to be able to predict any change in your moves in advance, and can always counterattack in the most restrained way."

"Fighting against him is like being trapped in a big invisible net. All your struggles are within his calculations. The more you fight, the more you feel frustrated and the more you fight, the weaker you become. That kind of all-round suppression..."

She shook her head and said no more, but everyone could feel the despair.

"So," Yu Peiling concluded, his tone becoming more positive, "Dongjiang Province's top scorer in the martial arts exam this year may be Chu Shanhe's bag."

"More than 90% of the experts in the province are concentrated in Linjiang City, and Chu Shanhe has already become the strongest in Linjiang, which is also the strongest in the province."

This conclusion is a bit bold, but not outrageous, because the probability that the number one winner in the martial arts examination in previous years was Linjiang No. 1 High School has always been very high.

With Chu Shanhe's dominance this year, few people can compete with him.

"Is there no one who can threaten him?" Su Yueling's cold voice sounded for the first time.

Her Life Energy Level is not high, it has just reached 12.2, but she is not too worried about it.

Because of Shadow Sword Technique, it was certain that she would enter Black Stone Academy, but she was still somewhat curious about the experts in the province.

Yu Peiling pondered for a moment and said, "If anyone has a chance... maybe only Shen Wei."

"Shen Wei?"

Compared with the name Chu Shanhe, the name Shen Wei is very unfamiliar to the students.

"Shen Wei's Life Energy Level is only about 0.4 levels behind Chu Shanhe. Moreover, he has learned the B-level sword technique "Seven Kill Saber" and also comprehended Martial Dao True Intent. His instantaneous explosive power is extremely terrifying."

"In a life-and-death battle with no restrictions on weapons, Shen Wei is the only one who can take advantage of Chu Shanhe."

"I once watched one of their virtual weapons battles. Shen Wei's knife was indeed terrifying. It was able to suppress Chu Shanhe head-on."

"But." Yu Peiling changed the topic and said, "College Entrance Examination's actual combat assessment is not allowed to use real weapons. Shen Wei's strongest sword technique is restricted, and his strength is greatly reduced."

"As far as I know, if we simulate the College Entrance Examination battle and Shen Wei faces Chu Shanhe, they will still lose more than they win, and the winning rate... is not even 20%."

The winning rate is less than 20%!

Everyone was silent again.

Even Shen Wei, who possesses Martial Dao True Intent and B-level sword skills, can hardly defeat Chu Shanhe under restricted circumstances, which shows how powerful he is.

"Speaking of Martial Dao True Intent." Yu Peiling turned to Su Yueling, who had been silent, "Yue Ling, I heard it when I came back. In the last joint examination, you were defeated by Martial Dao True Intent?"

The topic suddenly turned to him. Su Yueling was slightly startled, then nodded gently. "Yes."

The eyes of the surrounding classmates also gathered. Not many people knew the specific details of that battle. At this moment, the person involved mentioned it in person, which immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.

"Is it really Martial Dao True Intent?" Yu Peiling asked, with confirmation in his eyes.

She has seen the video of the fight between the two, but the mental confrontation cannot be shown in the video. She can only listen to the parties involved.

"Yes." Su Yueling confirmed again and said in a calm voice, "It is the true meaning of "mountain", and it is not something that was just grasped on the spot. It is quite concise. He should have understood it long ago."

"If I had known this in advance, I might have had some chance of winning, but unfortunately... battles cannot be assumed."

At the end, Su Yueling shook his head slightly.

Intelligence is an important part that affects victory or defeat, and sometimes it is even more important than strength itself.

If the strength gap between the two opponents is not that big, if one party has an absolute intelligence advantage, then it is normal for the weak to defeat the strong.

Yu Peiling said thoughtfully, "Those who can comprehend this artistic conception at the Martial Apprentice stage are those who are extremely determined and have a deep understanding of their own martial arts."

"It's a pity that his Life Energy Level is too low, otherwise he would be a good opponent."

In her opinion, there was only 11.6 Life Energy Level in early March, so by the time College Entrance Examination arrives, it will probably be around 12.5, and no more than 12.8 at most.

In the case of sufficient supply of Life Potion and Body Tempering Method possessing the C-level Minor Achievement realm, it can increase by 0.3 energy levels per month. This is a relatively conventional judgment.

However, with a level of 12.5 or above, and with the blessing of Martial Dao True Intent, the hope of being admitted to "Three Great Universities" is not small.

She looked at Su Yueling again, with some regret in her eyes. In fact, Su Yueling was in a similar situation.

If her Life Energy Level can keep up, even if it is just the same as hers, she is fully qualified to challenge Chu Shanhe!

Shadow Sword Technique This kind of Heart-Image Martial Art is more powerful than ordinary B-level martial arts.

In Linjiang, they all agree that Chu Shanhe has reached the limit of Martial Apprentice. Only by being particularly strong in some aspects can it be possible to break his absolute suppression.

She was at Linjiang and also heard about Su Yueling because she took the special recruitment exam for Three Great Universities.

Although she did not make the list in the end, she left a deep impression on those who took the exam together, thinking that she just lost to Life Energy Level.

"Pei Ling, is Martial Dao True Intent so rare in the provincial capital? I thought everyone among those geniuses had realized it..." Another person asked curiously.

These words made Yu Peiling burst into laughter, shook his head and said, "That's not the case, superb martial arts and combat skills are not necessarily related to the understanding of Martial Dao True Intent."

"That kind of thing is too illusory. It's more like a flash of enlightenment, which is rare to encounter."

"I have seen several owners of Martial Dao True Intent in Linjiang." She thought for a while and said, "But except for Shen Wei, the highest Life Energy Level is not more than level 12."

"Perhaps it is precisely because Life Energy Level is not improving quickly that they can focus more on the basics and gain insights."

"That's it..." After listening to Yu Peiling's words, everyone suddenly realized.

"By the way, Xu Wuyi, how much is Life Energy Level now?" Yu Peiling asked.

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, unable to answer for a while.

Xu Wuyi has rarely appeared in public since Three-School Joint Examination and has been conducting secret training. Only the principal and instructor know the specific progress.

"I heard that the progress is still very fast, but no one knows how much." A classmate said, "Honghe No. 1 High School has hidden him as a treasure."

"You don't even know about Life Energy Level? It's a little strange..." Yu Peiling was a little confused, because the growth progress of Life Energy Level can be roughly estimated.

To reserve the trump card for College Entrance Examination is also to hide the moves in martial arts, because when College Entrance Examination actually enters the arena, both sides of the battle can see each other's Life Energy Level.

Things that are deliberately hidden often contain secrets.

Yu Peiling became a little curious and suddenly had an idea.
