Chapter 28: Who Is Such a Genius?!

~15 min read 2,979 words

Heh heh heh...

Suddenly attacked, the man lying on the ground opened his mouth wide, his throat emitting the sound of difficult breathing.

"You motherf..."

He clutched his chest, stood up, and glared viciously at Chen Yan outside the window:

"Do you know who I am!?"

"Chen Yan, run!" Wang Yang spoke up instantly, only then realizing that Chen Yan had saved him.

"No one can save him, Wang Yang, you beast!" the man in the suit roared, glaring at Wang Yang, and raised a hand to slap Wang Yang across the face.

Bang!

Another precise brick suddenly flew in, smashing into the man's chest.

"Ah!!!" the man in the suit roared in extreme pain.

"You have such guts, such guts!"

He was just about to sit up when he saw a figure appear before him; it was the Youth who had thrown the brick at him.

"Do I have guts?" Chen Yan asked.

"You!" the man gritted his teeth, his pupils dark and gloomy.

Bang!

Chen Yan kicked him in the waist, pressed his knee against the man's chest, and raised his palm.

Slap!

Like a thunderclap to the ears, the man's entire face went blank.

"Do I have guts? I'm asking you." Chen Yan spoke again.

"You dare!" the man raged.

He was shocked and furious; he was a martial artist, though he hadn't trained much since graduating high school and had no time after starting work, as he was busy striving for his career.

But he was a martial artist.

How could he not resist the other party? How could this kid have such great strength?

Slap!

Chen Yan slapped him again, and the man's face quickly congested with blood.

"Do you know..."

Slap, slap, slap!

Chen Yan landed several more slaps:

"I only know that you are very weak."

To the side, Wang Yang grabbed Chen Yan, his eyes filled with nervousness:

"Chen Yan, go, I'll handle this."

"Bastard, you motherf..." Beneath him, the man in the suit continued to bark like a dog.

Chen Yan glanced at Wang Yang, but his hands did not stop.

Slap, slap, slap, slap!

The man quieted down, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at Chen Yan.

Until he was knocked unconscious by Chen Yan.

"Teacher, you cannot handle this."

Chen Yan's expression was gloomy as he looked at Wang Yang:

"In his eyes, he does not consider us human."

Wang Yang opened his mouth wide, closed his eyes tightly, and spoke with a tremble:

"But you shouldn't have gotten involved, you shouldn't have gotten involved; what I lost was just a finger, just a finger...!"

Chen Yan pursed his lips, looking at Wang Yang in this moment, yet a nameless rage still burned in his heart.

He clenched his fists.

He wanted to kill.

To the side, Wang Yang's lips quivered; he felt as if a stone were stuck in his chest, making it difficult to speak, difficult to breathe.

What to do after this?

This person was not powerful, not important, but his master was Gong Qing, a member of the Gong Family.

"Ye Secretary, what's wrong?"

In the courtyard, someone suddenly spoke; it was another man wearing a suit, the driver.

The driver stood dazed in the courtyard, his pupils shrinking as he saw the scene in the room, and then he quickly ran out.

After a while, Qingshan Town Martial Bureau Director Xin Gongxian and a group of Martial Officers arrived.

Seeing the scene in the room, they all opened their mouths wide.

…………

Luoshan County, First High School.

On the Playground, the lights were brilliant, and the one hundred and forty-three students of the True Martial Class stood in a square formation.

Beside the formation, the three high school principals, Chu Feiyuan, and others stood next to the students.

At the very front, four people stood.

They were none other than Luoshan County True Martial Division Chief Yin Yanjun, True Martial Class Chief Instructor Luo Puxin, and Deputy Instructor Chu Lan, yet these three were vaguely standing behind the person in the very center.

The person standing in the center had white hair, yet his appearance seemed to be only thirty or forty years old.

He wore a black True Martial uniform, and possessed an indescribable aura that inspired awe.

Yunmeng City True Martial Division Military Martial Department Minister, Bai Yuyue!

Behind Bai Yuyue and the others were three Stele covered by white cloth.

These were the Origin Stele brought over from three high schools.

Inside the True Martial Class.

"Zhang Qingsi, that one at the very front is Chu Xuansheng."

Gao Yuan and Zhang Qingsi stood at the end, constantly craning their necks to look toward the very front.

Many students, just like them, were either inadvertently or cautiously sizing up the handsome Youth in the black T-shirt standing at the very front.

They were either geniuses from the three high schools of Luoshan County, or the top students from the twenty-three township high schools.

But when facing that person, they would all appear very mediocre.

Chu Xuansheng, son of the Chu Family, this year's strongest student in Luoshan County; it is said that even in Yunmeng City, he is a genius who can rank in the top Thirty.

"Only by entering the True Martial Class can one befriend such a genius!" Zhang Qingsi murmured, a look of arrogance appearing in his eyes.

He won, he entered the True Martial Class, and being in the same class as Chu Xuansheng meant he was also a genius.

Beside him, someone was discussing.

"Wu Chuhua, what's wrong with you? Why does it feel like your Aura is chaotic?"

"Nothing... nothing at all."

"I heard you were bullied by someone today; so you have days like this too."

"Who said that? Zhang Tie? How dare he gossip about me!"

Zhang Qingsi looked over, his Mu Guang flashing; Wu Chuhua, a top-five genius of Er Gao, was also someone he wanted to befriend.

He was just preparing to speak, but saw Wu Chuhua looking at him coldly:

"What are you looking at? Get lost!"

Zhang Qingsi was Stun, Anger appearing in his eyes, but he quickly endured it; Wu Chuhua was not someone to be trifled with.

"Serves you right to be bullied." Zhang Qingsi sneered in his heart.

It was also at this moment.

"Unfair!"

A voice containing the Youth's endless roar sounded from within the school; Zhang Qingsi and the others hurriedly looked over.

"This True Martial Class quota is unfair, I, Zhang Mancang, just want fairness!!!"

The entire formation, one hundred and forty-three students, turned their Gaze in unison toward the figure who had suddenly rushed onto the Playground.

"Unfair?" The Bai Yuyue at the very front Frown as he looked at Zhang Mancang who had rushed onto the Playground, then looked at Luo Puxin behind him.

"I don't know about this." Luo Puxin also had an ugly expression; he took a step forward and said to Zhang Mancang:

"Is your name Zhang Mancang?"

"Yes!" Zhang Mancang spoke, looking slightly nervous:

"I am the winner of the Zhangni Township True Martial Prize Money; the person who was supposed to enter the True Martial Class was me, but my quota was replaced by someone else!"

Whoosh!

One sentence stirred up a thousand waves; some of the one hundred and forty-three students in the True Martial Class had eyes showing surprise, some began to discuss privately. Some had faces showing Scream.

At the very front, County True Martial Division Chief Yin Yanjun had a look of astonishment, and City True Martial Division Military Martial Department Minister Bai Yuyue Frown.

Within the True Martial Class, many students' bodies stiffened in an instant; like Zhang Qingsi, they were all staring dead at Zhang Mancang at this moment.

In an instant, a layer of sweat seeped out on Zhang Qingsi's Forehead, and he became nervous.

He was the one who replaced Chen Yan to come to the True Martial Class; Zhang Mancang's appearance made his heart beat violently.

"Replaced!" Luo Puxin shouted with an astonished expression, then looked at Chu Lan who was standing beside Bai Yuyue without saying a word:

"Deputy Instructor Chu, this quota was decided by you."

At this moment, Bai Yuyue also looked at Chu Lan with a cold face:

"Chu Lan, Luo Puxin just came down from the Frontline and is new here.

The higher-ups only let you manage the True Martial Class enrollment matters, and you actually changed the quota privately?!"

The man named Chu Lan stood out with a calm expression and bowed respectfully to Bai Yuyue:

"Yes, but I had a justifiable reason for doing so."

Luo Puxin narrowed his eyes; Chu Lan's performance at this moment seemed a bit too calm.

If he handled this event today and it went according to plan, Chu Lan would definitely not be able to stay in the True Martial Division in the future.

"Justifiable reason?" Bai Yuyue was imposing without being angry:

"You violated the regulations of your superiors privately, and you call that a justifiable reason?"

"Yes." Chu Lan said calmly:

"Minister Bai, Chief Yin, our idea in organizing the True Martial Class was to organize the students with the strongest aptitude in the whole county to charge at the college entrance examination and bring glory to our Luoshan County!

But the selection of the True Martial Prize Money is often not fair."

Luo Puxin narrowed his eyes, while Yin Yanjun, who had not spoken the whole time, Sigh and said:

"Martial Dao competition determines the winner, which is already very fair; it is best you do not change the rules set by the superiors, the more you change them, the harder it is to explain.

You let others enter the True Martial Class, you are doing it for fairness, but others will definitely think you have accepted benefits."

Yin Yanjun appeared to Sigh, but in reality, every word was like a needle, targeting Chu Lan.

Beside the True Martial Class students, Chu Feiyuan's face turned livid; in an instant, he felt as if he were on pins and needles, and sweat was flowing down his Forehead.

How could he not see that today the higher-ups wanted to punish Chu Lan using the matter of the True Martial Class quota.

Didn't that Luo Puxin accept the money they gave him? Why is he targeting Chu Lan now?

This is... a trap!

It's over.

He had even changed several spots himself.

Among the students, Zhang Qingsi clenched his fists tightly, his whole body beginning to tremble.

He had not expected that someone would dare to come here directly to expose the matter of the True Martial Class spot modifications; even if that person was not Chen Yan, he was still afraid.

"Zhang Qingsi, what's wrong with you?" Beside him, Gao Yuan spoke up:

"Could it be that you also..."

"Shut up!" Zhang Qingsi barked angrily, but the next moment he discovered quite a few classmates looking toward him, and he dared not speak further.

Zhang Qingsi was covered in sweat at this moment, feeling only that he was a street rat whom everyone shouted to beat.

Before, he had felt that he was also a Heavenly Pride, but at this moment he had turned into a bug.

Up ahead, Chu Lan spoke up:

"It is wrong for me to modify the spots without authorization, but even if I must bear the infamy, I want true geniuses to enter the True Martial Class!"

Chu Lan stood out and pointed at Zhang Mancang:

"Zhang Mancang, have you achieved Awakening of Qi and Blood?!"

"No." Zhang Mancang shook his head.

"Do you walk the path of Horizontal Refinement?"

"No... no." Zhang Mancang appeared slightly panicked:

"But I did indeed defeat Cun Gao, who has achieved Awakening of Qi and Blood!"

"Cun Gao has achieved Awakening of Qi and Blood; he lost to you because his SoulRefining was in disarray beforehand, not because you are stronger than him!"

Chu Lan let out a Sigh, appearing slightly helpless as he said:

"I know you won, and according to the rules you should enter the True Martial Class, but Cun Gao is more suitable!"

Whoosh!

The crowd of students began to discuss.

Bai Yuyue Frowned, and Luo Puxin looked toward Chu Lan.

Something is wrong!

It stands to reason that Chu Lan would not even be able to remember the names of Zhang Mancang and Cun Gao clearly, so why did he look as if he had already made Preparation?

"I want to challenge Cun Gao one more time!" Beside them, Zhang Mancang's face flushed red, and he clenched his Fists.

"Then why not fight one more time." Chu Lan said in a low voice.

"Absurd!" Bai Yuyue said with dissatisfaction, clearly not agreeing to another fight; the problem lay with Chu Lan, so there was no need to give Chu Lan a chance to quibble.

"I also think we should fight one more time."

Luo Puxin spoke up, a coldness emerging in his heart; his goal was for them to fight again.

He had been training Zhang Mancang in private and was clear on Zhang Mancang's current strength.

In a moment, Zhang Mancang would crush Cun Gao, thoroughly proving that Chu Lan was just being unreasonable and cutting off people's futures!

Bai Yuyue Frowned, took a look at Luo Puxin and Chu Lan, and let out a Sigh:

"Then fight one more time."

Among the True Martial Class students, a thin, tall figure stood out, looking calmly at Zhang Mancang.

It was precisely Cun Gao.

Among the students, Zhang Qingsi stared fixedly at Cun Gao's back, his Pupils gradually becoming helpless.

He could almost imagine himself, someone who had snatched a spot from others, being dragged out by the adults of the Martial Officer department in a moment.

Sweat constantly emerged from Zhang Qingsi's body, and he did not even dare to watch the battle between Cun Gao and Zhang Mancang.

Even Gao Yuan, who was beside him at this moment, had changed from his usual honest Manner, and the look he gave Zhang Qingsi carried mockery and pity.

The next moment.

Whoosh!

A burst of noise arose.

"Zhang Mancang is simply no match for Cun Gao." Beside them, Yu Zhiwen, who had come to the True Martial Class with Zhang Qingsi, Frowned as she spoke.

"Hm?" Zhang Qingsi hurriedly looked over.

Only to see a thud.

Zhang Mancang was sent into Flight by a punch from Cun Gao, lying on the grass in a panic:

"I... lost."

Time seemed to have stalled.

Luo Puxin looked behind him; Bai Yuyue's complexion was already very ugly, and he was looking at him speechlessly.

"Department Head Bai, according to the investigation, twenty-one student spots were modified by Chu Lan without authorization." Luo Puxin hurriedly spoke.

"You..." Bai Yuyue wanted to scold him, but still looked coldly at Chu Lan:

"I will report this matter when I return!"

"Yes!" Chu Lan saluted, though his expression remained extremely calm:

"But, although I was wrong, I have no regrets."

Hearing Chu Lan's words, Luo Puxin's complexion instantly turned iron-blue, and he then glared fiercely at Zhang Mancang, who had fallen to the ground.

Zhang Mancang had not displayed his full strength at all; in this battle, anyone could see that Zhang Mancang was constantly panicked and made many mistakes.

But the fact was just that; Zhang Mancang had lost, and he had lost miserably.

"Department Head Bai, those students who were subjected to Bodu of their True Martial Class spots..." Luo Puxin gritted his teeth and continued to speak.

"We will discuss this matter later." Bai Yuyue said quietly, slowly shaking his head at Luo Puxin.

The oath-taking ceremony continued.

Inside the True Martial Class.

At this moment, those students who had taken others' spots to enter the True Martial Class also breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Qingsi breathed a sigh of relief, yet a Smile could not help but float to the corners of his Mouth.

Cun Gao had actually won, and won so easily at that.

Just a moment ago, he had almost thought he was going to be thrown out of the True Martial Class directly by the higher-ups.

"Although I lost to Chen Yan, I was indeed a bit flustered at the time; give me another chance, and I won't lose."

To the side, Gao Yuan let out a loud Laughter, though its meaning was unknown.

Up front, Bai Yuyue and Yin Yanjun spoke one after another.

"I hope you will not let down our expectations in the future; these three Origin Steles will remain standing here for you all to comprehend!"

Bai Yuyue spoke and waved his hand, and Chu Lan went Laughing to the back to uncover the white cloth on those three Stele.

All the students looked over, all wearing a Smile.

The investment of this True Martial Class was truly grand this time!

"The 【Red Steel Body-Forging Canon】 is the foundational Breathing Method for all Horizontal Refinement Martial Arts in our Xia Country; students of the Horizontal Refinement path may all learn it, while students of the SoulRefining Martial Dao have..."

As Bai Yuyue spoke, he suddenly furrowed his brows and looked at the three Origin Steles behind him, his Gaze resting on one of them.

He walked over slowly, touched that Origin Stele with one hand, and suddenly spoke:

"Which Xue Xiao does this Origin Stele belong to?"

"This is Er Gao's," Chu Lan said; had Bai Yuyue discovered something?

At this moment, Bai Yuyue's brows were deeply furrowed as he looked at Luo Puxin:

"Go check later who touched this Origin Stele today!"

Bai Yuyue's Pupil contracted violently; the Origin Stele had actually infused someone with Origin in such a short time!

Who was it?

Who was such a genius?
