Huang Yi'an's Accusation

On the final lap, Su Yuan calmed himself and maintained his speed as he headed for the end of the passage.

His Blood Qi Value had already risen to 81.2.

In less than twenty minutes, the rate at which his Blood Qi Value increased had become many times faster than before.

Su Yuan was thrilled. At this rate, he would need less than ten days to become a First-Realm Martial Artist!

Even as excitement filled him, Su Yuan gradually steadied his emotions. His gaze remained fixed ahead, and his feet seemed to ride the wind as he rushed forward.

Three minutes later, Su Yuan appeared at the entrance of the passage, completing this warm-up exercise.

Though utterly exhausted, he did not choose to lie down on the ground. Instead, he forced himself to remain standing and moved to one side.

Outside the passage, aside from the three teachers led by Wang Zheng, there were only Ye Ling, Chu Tianche, Leng Xin, Fang Yan, and two students from Qianshan No. 1 High School.

Including Su Yuan, there were six students in total.

"Extraordinary willpower."

The way Wang Zheng looked at Su Yuan had completely changed. If this student had not relied on outside assistance, then his willpower was downright terrifying.

In Wang Zheng's eyes, Su Yuan's Blood Qi Value could only be described as pitifully low, yet he had completed the warm-up exercise at an astonishing speed.

Huang Yi'an merely glanced at Su Yuan without saying anything, though no one knew what scheme he was plotting.

He truly did not believe that Su Yuan, with such a low Blood Qi Value, could complete five round trips through the passage so quickly.

Although the students had not been required to put down all their belongings before entering the passage, it was not impossible that someone had brought an Intermediate Recovery Potion with them.

It all depended on whether they dared to cheat under the watchful eyes of three Fourth-Realm Martial Artists.

Soon after, the eighth student to complete the warm-up exercise emerged from the passage.

When he saw Su Yuan standing outside, his eyes went blank.

After looking at Su Yuan suspiciously a few times, he did not say anything.

At that moment, he could not spare any attention for others. He was already exhausted to the point of death.

Among the students present, aside from Ye Ling and Chu Tianche, whose conditions had not changed much, everyone else, including Leng Xin, showed some signs of discomfort.

Leng Xin was doing all right. She still looked fairly relaxed.

Fang Yan and the others desperately wanted to sit down immediately, yet not a single person did so. They were all silently enduring it.

To the side stood a large box of Intermediate Recovery Potions, but not one person went to take any.

Zhao Xinxuan had thought that Su Yuan would be the first to drink an Intermediate Recovery Potion after coming out, but to her surprise, he was also forcing himself to remain standing.

He did not even glance at the Intermediate Recovery Potions.

This only deepened Huang Yi'an's suspicions of Su Yuan.

Time passed quickly, and students continued completing the warm-up exercise one after another.

Starting from the seventeenth student, every student who emerged rushed eagerly toward the Intermediate Recovery Potions. If not for the number of people present, they would have loved to gulp down two or three bottles at once.

What kind of warm-up exercise was this? How was this any different from formal training?

Many people grumbled inwardly, but none dared to say it aloud.

However, aside from the Second High School students, the first person every Qianshan No. 1 High School student looked at after coming out was Su Yuan.

Strange. It was simply too strange.

How could Su Yuan be here?

Could he really be faster than them, First-Realm Martial Artists with Blood Qi Values exceeding one hundred?

"Could Su Yuan have cheated? Such an obvious act of cheating is a major taboo in Teacher Wang's eyes."

"I don't know. With such a low Blood Qi Value, how could he finish the warm-up exercise faster than us?"

"Something's off about Su Yuan. Could he have only completed four round trips before coming out?"

Many Qianshan No. 1 High School students whispered among themselves. Su Yuan appearing here was simply too strange.

It did not fit their expectation of him being dead last.

When the thirtieth student, Luo Min from Second High School, staggered out of the passage, the warm-up exercise officially ended.

The entire process had taken forty-seven minutes.

After Luo Min drank an Intermediate Recovery Potion, Wang Zheng gestured for everyone to stand before him.

"Well? Tired?"

Wang Zheng smiled as he looked at the thirty students.

All the students fell silent. Teacher Wang's question did not seem easy to answer.

Tired?

How could they admit that?

Not tired?

That would be a lie.

"It was nothing. Teacher Wang, I can still do another ten round trips."

Ye Ling's sudden words immediately startled everyone.

Ninety-nine percent of the Qianshan No. 1 High School students had never witnessed Ye Ling's true strength. They had only heard rumors of his exceptional talent and overwhelming power.

Many students from Qianshan No. 1 High School itself had never even seen Ye Ling before.

To Ye Ling, this warm-up exercise was merely a warm-up exercise.

To the other students, it was no different from formal training.

"Ling, keep a low profile."

Chu Tianche curled his lips and nudged Ye Ling with his elbow.

"Keep a low profile?"

"Why should I keep a low profile?"

"Among all the students here, who could possibly be a match for me, Ye Ling?"

Ye Ling's words radiated dominance.

Su Yuan did not feel offended when he heard this. Ye Ling's words carried no mockery or condescension.

He was simply freely displaying the invincible talent of Qianshan District.

Ye Ling was the number one high school student in Qianshan District.

Hearing Ye Ling's words, Chu Tianche also spoke up.

"Teacher Wang, I think I can do another eight round trips too."

The others twitched their lips. Were these two really trying to outdo each other here?

"Hahaha."

"Confidence is a good thing. I believe what you two are saying."

Wang Zheng looked at Ye Ling and Chu Tianche with appreciation, finding them more pleasing the longer he looked.

As the two Sovereign-Tier Geniuses of Qianshan No. 1 High School, they completely outclassed the other students in every aspect.

Second High School had its top three, while Qianshan No. 1 High School had its two Sovereign-Tier Geniuses.

They represented the most outstanding talents of the two schools.

"Having experienced the warm-up exercise, you should have some understanding of the intensity of the upcoming classes."

"The warm-up was merely the appetizer. The main course begins tomorrow."

"I hope you prepare well for tomorrow's lessons and give it your all."

"That's all for today. You may leave."

After Wang Zheng finished speaking, he prepared to leave.

"Wait."

Huang Yi'an suddenly stepped forward and stood beside Wang Zheng.

"Is there anything else, Teacher Huang?"

Wang Zheng seemed to have guessed what Huang Yi'an wanted to do, and a trace of helplessness appeared in his eyes.

The classes had not even officially begun today, and the warm-up exercise just now had merely been something the students did of their own accord.

Why were you taking it so seriously, Huang Yi'an?

Do not be so rigid.

You were not the sort of person who could not tolerate even a grain of sand in his eyes.

Wang Zheng wanted to say this in front of everyone, but Huang Yi'an beat him to it and declared loudly.

"Every action must be treated as training under real conditions."

"If you do not break through your own limits, how can you become a true powerhouse?"

Huang Yi'an began with two lofty remarks, then suddenly changed the subject.

"Su Yuan, is your vanity really so strong?"

"Do you want to seize an illusory position ahead of most students?"

"Using special means to obtain a ranking that does not belong to you is shameful and pathetic misconduct."

"You, why did you drink an Intermediate Recovery Potion inside the passage?"

Huang Yi'an's words left Su Yuan completely bewildered.

What had he done?

Drunk an Intermediate Recovery Potion?

Teacher Huang, that was too ridiculous.

As soon as those words fell, more than ten Qianshan No. 1 High School students suddenly understood.

No wonder. How could Su Yuan possibly complete the warm-up exercise faster than them?

So he had taken an Intermediate Recovery Potion.

For a moment, many people looked at Su Yuan with undisguised contempt.

Leng Xin and Fang Yan's group were also stunned by Huang Yi'an's sudden accusation.

Lin Jie felt even more strongly that Huang Yi'an was making a baseless accusation.

He had sparred with Su Yuan for so long and had never seen Su Yuan consume any kind of recovery potion.

With nothing to hide, Su Yuan looked Huang Yi'an straight in the eye and spoke firmly.

"Teacher Huang, what evidence do you have?"
