fantasy novels Chapter 31 Blood and Qi Surge
Chapter 31 Blood and Qi Surge
After an afternoon of cultivation, Chen Lie's body temperature soared.
After swallowing the last small piece of Blood Crystal, Chen Lie resumed his basic body-tempering techniques.
At this moment, all the cells in his body had been activated and were in an extremely active state. Before he could even make the first move of the fourth move, his cells were already frantically devouring the energy brought by the Blood Jade.
Seeing how powerful the fourth form of the basic body-strengthening technique was, Chen Lie only performed all fifty-eight movements once this time. He was afraid that his body's nutrients would be drained, so he reserved the remaining medicinal power of Xue Linglong for his active cells to absorb slowly.
After spending more than half an hour in the personal cultivation room, Chen Lie's body cells finally stopped being active and slowly fell into a state of dormancy.
At this moment, the last small portion of Blood Crystal's medicinal power has been almost completely absorbed, leaving less than one-tenth stored in the body.
In addition to his personal cultivation room, Chen Lie went directly to a Qi and Blood Detector. He entered the detector's cabin and began testing his Qi and Blood values.
Inside the instrument's cabin, blue light begins scanning, and after the scan, the instrument announces the results of the blood and qi values.
"Beep, test complete, blood energy level 22.91 calories."
Chen Lie stepped out of the cabin of the blood and qi detector and glanced back at the readings on the device.
"The blood and qi value has doubled. It truly lives up to its reputation as a fifty-year-old elixir."
As Chen Lie was thinking this, he suddenly felt a sense of discomfort in his body. He used his mental energy to examine his body and came to a conclusion.
"It seems that increasing such a large amount of Qi and blood at once has put a considerable burden on the body."
Unfortunately, he lacks the resources to properly care for his body. It's just a minor burden and won't affect him much. He can recover in a few days with medication.
When Chen Lie left the Dongchuan Martial Arts School, it was already getting dark. He went to the bus stop next to the school and took the flying bus home.
Early in the morning, Chen Lie ate something quick and easy, then left home and went to school.
Upon arriving at the elite campus, Chen Lie immediately went to the classroom of Elite Class 5.
At this moment, there were probably dozens of students in the classroom of Elite Class 5. Chen Lie walked into the classroom and chose a seat to sit down.
"Chen Lie, why didn't you come yesterday?"
As soon as Chen Lie sat down, he heard a voice behind him.
He turned around and saw the student who had spoken to him on his first day in the elite class, named Wang Chen.
"I had something to do yesterday. What's wrong? Do you come to the elite class every day?"
"When I came to register, my advisor said that it wouldn't matter if I didn't come to class for a month," Chen Lie said.
Wang Chen said, "It's not that I come every day, but rather frequently."
We, the elite students from underprivileged backgrounds, don't come from particularly wealthy families. What else can we do if we don't come to school? After all, before coming to school, we were provided with two nutritious meals.
"That's true." Chen Lie nodded.
"I only entered the elite class in the last two months; I came from a regular senior class. What about you, Chen Lie?"
As Wang Chen spoke, he went to the front row and sat down next to Chen Lie.
"I also came in from a regular senior class," Chen Lie said.
"That's it, we're doomed. The teachers won't pay any attention to us who can only get into the elite class in our senior year of high school."
Chen Lie said, "What does it matter whether the mentor values it or not?"
"Let me put it this way, my family is of average means. Coming to the elite class means I can enjoy two nutritious meals and two martial arts instruction classes every week."
Do you know how many Star Coins it costs to learn a martial art at a martial arts school? Hundreds of thousands are the minimum, so I can only hope to learn martial arts at a school.
So I can only come to school often. I just entered the elite class, so my blood energy level is definitely lower than that of other students. Almost everyone in the elite class is someone who flatters the powerful and bullies the weak.
Because I wasn't one of the elite students who entered the elite class in my first or second year of high school, I wasn't valued by the teachers, so I was bullied by the established elite students, and the teachers usually turned a blind eye.
Wang Chen shook his head and sighed.
"So this is how stifling it is for the elite students who were promoted from the regular classes in the senior year of high school to be in the elite classes." Chen Lie said thoughtfully.
"Yes, I once overheard school leaders talking, saying that the school spends over a billion Star Dollars every month on subsidies for elite students, which is too expensive."
Those students who only entered the elite class in their senior year of high school, and those who couldn't even break 10 in terms of Qi and Blood after being in the elite class for half a year, should all be kicked out.
Another school leader said: There is no other way. The school needs to cultivate elite students at the top level. Those elite students who are promoted from the ordinary classes in the senior year and those elite students with single-digit health points are both indispensable.
Without the contrast provided by these elite students from the lower classes, how can the competitive spirit of top-tier students be cultivated?
Listen to this! Doesn't it imply that we're all just cannon fodder for the top-tier students? That our existence is solely to cultivate a strong mindset in them?
Wang Chen's face was full of resentment.
Chen Lie nodded. The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is indeed like that.
Just then, a beautiful girl walked into the classroom and angrily sat down next to Chen Lie.
When Wang Chen saw the beautiful girl sitting next to him and Chen Lie, he immediately moved away quietly.
He also whispered, "Chen Lie, sit further away."
Chen Lie asked, "Why?"
Just as Wang Chen was about to explain to Chen Lie, a male student walked in from outside the classroom, and he immediately lowered his head again.
The boy walked up to Chen Lie's desk, tapped it with his finger, and without even looking at Chen Lie, simply said, "Move aside!"
Seeing this, Chen Lie didn't say anything, but simply moved to the side, since there were so many empty seats.
"Wanwan, please don't be angry anymore. That girl was really just my sister."
"Zhang Xun, do you think I'm blind? They're practically hugging each other, and you still call her your sister? When did your parents give you another sister?"
The beautiful girl said coldly.
"Well... I didn't say she was my biological daughter, she's my god-sister."
"roll!"
The male student gave an awkward smile, showing no intention of backing down. Instead, he sat in the spot where Chen Lie had been and continued talking to the beautiful girl.
At this moment, Wang Chen moved closer to Chen Lie and said, "That boy is called Zhang Xun. He entered the elite class from the key class in the second year of high school and has been in the elite class for a year. His Qi and Blood value has long since exceeded double digits. We'd better stay away from him. He has bullied the freshmen a lot because of his high Qi and Blood value."
"Understood."
Chen Lie nodded. It seemed that the elite classes managed their students in a semi-laissez-faire manner.
The weak are bullied, the strong are bullied.
Wang Chen lowered his voice and said, "Because Zhang Xun comes from a wealthy family and is very powerful, he likes to flirt with new girls."
However, he has a girlfriend named Xie Wanwan. The current situation is definitely because Zhang Xun was flirting with another girl and was caught by Xie Wanwan.
Let's stay away from them, lest they take their anger out on us.
"No need," Chen Lie waved his hand and said, "Just sit here."
"All right."
Seeing that he wasn't very close to Zhang Xun, Wang Chen nodded.
"Look, Wanwan, aren't you practicing Water Soft Palm right now? My uncle works at a martial arts school, and he teaches Water Soft Palm. I'll ask him to give you one-on-one instruction. So please stop being angry with me, okay?"
Zhang Xun then spoke to Xie Wanwan beside him.
"snort!"
Xie Wanwan turned her head away, giving Zhang Xun no chance.
"Okay, I promise you, I will never contact other girls again from now on. Can you forgive me one more time?" Zhang Xun said again.
"Really?" Xie Wanwan turned to Zhang Xun and blinked.
"Of course, when have I ever failed to keep my promise to you?" Zhang Xun retorted.
"Alright, I'm free this Saturday. Go ask your uncle to instruct me in the Water Soft Palm technique!"
"Okay, I'll go talk to my uncle after school."
After Zhang Xun finished speaking, he reached out and hugged Xie Wanwan. Xie Wanwan did not resist and snuggled up to Zhang Xun.
"Hmph, it's all your fault! You always make me angry, and now I haven't had breakfast and I'm still hungry!"
After cuddling for a while, Xie Wanwan suddenly vented her anger on Zhang Xun.
Zhang Xun laughed and said, "What's wrong with that?"
He turned around, glanced around, and pointed at the students behind him.
"You there, right now, immediately, run forward and buy two breakfasts."
Zhang Xun pointed around and finally stopped at Chen Lie, who was closest to him. After speaking, without waiting for Chen Lie's reaction, he turned back to Xie Wanwan and continued to be affectionate.
Wang Chen glanced at Chen Lie and said, "Let's go, Chen Lie, I'll go with you."
"Go? Where to?"
"Go buy breakfast."
"Why buy breakfast? I'm not hungry."
"What does it have to do with whether you're hungry or not?" Wang Chen said. "Didn't you hear Zhang Xun tell you to go buy two breakfasts and bring them back?"
"I'm not his father, why should I buy him breakfast?" Chen Lie said.
Wang Chen said, "Zhang Xun's blood energy value is as high as double digits. On average, seven out of the ten freshmen in Elite Class 5 have been beaten up by him."
We all came from regular senior year classes, and were at the bottom of the class. The teachers wouldn't pay attention to you. If Zhang Xun beat you up, even if you complained to the teachers, they wouldn't care.
"You didn't listen to Zhang Xun and go buy breakfast; things are definitely not going to end well today."
"Never mind that."
"well……"
Seeing Chen Lie's appearance, Wang Chen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
When he first entered the elite class, wasn't he also full of vigor and felt that he was different from others and far superior to ordinary people?
Unfortunately, after being beaten several times in the elite class, he finally realized that he was just the lowest of the elite students.
I believe that in another half month or so, Chen Lie will be just like him. After all, people can't teach you everything, but you can learn something by being taught.
Zhang Xun was talking to Xie Wanwan in front of him when he noticed that Chen Lie hadn't moved. He immediately got up, went to Chen Lie's desk, and slammed his hand on the desk.
"I told you to go buy two breakfasts, are you deaf? Why aren't you going yet?"
Chen Lie stood up, facing Zhang Xun without fear, and said, "Want me to run errands for you and buy you breakfast? Fine, then you'd better kneel down and kowtow to me, and then call me 'Dad'."
