Chapter 16: Independent Martial Arts Room

These past half a month.

Besides practicing hard, Li Yuan had been paying attention to the war in the Northern Frontier Province.

After all, his uncle was building defense facilities in the Northern Frontier Province.

On the news, the human coalition forces were winning battle after battle, each time a great victory, causing heavy casualties to the Star Realm creatures.

Li Yuan, however, keenly sensed something was wrong.

"War reports can lie, but the front lines don't." Li Yuan scanned the news playing on the electronic screen while eating.

"According to past experience, if our human civilization really had the advantage, then after encountering the first wave of attacks, we would soon organize a large army and martial artist groups to kill into the depths of the Star Realm..." Li Yuan's science grades were average, but his liberal arts grades were good.

He studied history and geography well.

Especially modern history.

"This time in the Luobuhai Star Realm war, for half a month straight, the front lines seem to be repeatedly seesawing at the several major entrances of the Star Realm." Li Yuan's eyes were full of worry.

What did that mean?

The human coalition forces had been unable to push back!

The war was likely very tragic.

"Hope, Uncle can return safely." Li Yuan thought to himself; these days, his uncle would occasionally call or message him, telling him not to worry.

Hu!

"Old Zhou, Yan Zhou, I'm leaving after I finish eating." Li Yuan picked up his lunch box and prepared to walk toward the tray return counter.

"Brother Yuan, wait for us to go to the martial arts classroom together." Zhou Qi shouted: "We'll be done eating soon."

"I'm going to the Elite Building, not the same way." Li Yuan said in a low voice.

Guanshan District No. 1 High School covered a large area, and the teaching buildings were divided into four types: Cultural Building, Martial Arts Building, Office Building, and Elite Building.

The so-called Elite Building consisted of three super-large martial arts classrooms and dozens of independent martial arts rooms.

It was exclusively for the use of students in the three elite classes from the first to the third year of high school.

There were fewer than two hundred students in total.

"Going to the Elite Building?" Zhou Qi and Yan Zhou didn't react for a moment.

"Looking for someone? Wan Xiao?" Yan Zhou asked suspiciously.

"I'll be practicing there from now on." Li Yuan thought for a moment and said: "The school approved an independent martial arts room for me, so I'll be practicing there during martial arts self-study from now on."

Martial arts class, Teacher Xu would only come once every two days.

The scholarship, the school didn't publicize it, so no one knew, and Li Yuan wouldn't say it out loud to attract attention.

But the independent martial arts room? It was just sitting there, it would spread sooner or later, so Li Yuan simply said it early.

"Independent martial arts room? Holy crap!"

"Brother Yuan's?"

"It must have been approved by Teacher Xu!"

"Brother Yuan is awesome!" Yan Zhou, Zhou Qi, and the other dozen boys immediately exploded, shouting excitedly one by one.

It immediately attracted many students around to look over.

"Keep it low profile, I'm only telling you guys, don't spread it." Li Yuan said in a low voice.

"Understood."

"Brother Yuan, we want to go see it; I've never been inside an independent martial arts room."

"Independent martial arts room, I never dared to think about it." This group of boys lowered their voices, but remained curious.

They weren't jealous of Li Yuan, and even if individuals had thoughts, they wouldn't be stupid enough to show them.

After all, the small team of a dozen boys was vaguely led by Li Yuan.

Moreover, they all knew that Li Yuan's martial arts grades were extremely good, and his raw score had long been in the top ten of the grade.

"I've never been either." More people shouted.

"Fine, there will be a chance to take you guys later." Li Yuan laughed: "But not today, it's my first time going, so I have to get familiar with it first."

Everyone nodded one after another.

The Elite Building and the Senior Martial Arts Building were separated by a small playground, and one had to cross the Office Building, making it relatively independent.

Therefore, this area was very quiet.

The road was lined with green trees, and the breeze blowing on people was quite cool.

"Elite Building." Li Yuan soon arrived under this building, his gaze sweeping over it; the decoration was quite simple and elegant.

In front of the building stood a statue.

"Dongfang Ji." Li Yuan recognized this statue.

The number one powerhouse of human civilization, the number one powerhouse of the Xia Nation, the founder of the Starfire Martial Hall... and also the first peerless martial artist to walk out of the center of a nuclear explosion alive.

He was Li Yuan's most admired idol.

"Martial arts is me." Li Yuan walked near the statue, and that famous quote was engraved below it.

1:00 PM was the time for self-study in the martial arts classroom, so there were quite a few students entering and leaving.

However, no one paid too much attention to Li Yuan.

The first-year students thought Li Yuan was a second or third-year student, and the third-year students thought Li Yuan was a second-year student.

Perhaps Li Yuan was slightly famous in the senior grade, but it was limited to 'having a famous name'.

Except for classmates in the same class, students in other classes rarely knew him.

Suddenly.

"Li Yuan." A slightly surprised voice sounded, and Li Yuan turned to look.

A burly figure like a big bear walked up the steps wearing a martial arts uniform.

"Wan Xiao, long time no see." Li Yuan laughed and waved.

The person who came was Wan Xiao, who had transferred to the elite class to study after awakening martial arts spirituality.

"It has been a long time." Wan Xiao laughed.

Seemingly in the same school, but assigned to different classes, meeting once was very difficult.

"How's the elite class?" Li Yuan smiled.

"Not bad." Wan Xiao nodded: "The high-stage cultivation method is indeed extraordinary, the students in the class have a very high level, and sparring with each other has a very good effect..."

"You have to work hard, don't let me surpass you in the next exam." Wan Xiao joked half-seriously.

"I'll be waiting." Li Yuan laughed; both sides had a good relationship and wouldn't think this was a provocation.

"By the way, haven't asked you, what are you doing coming to the Elite Building?" Wan Xiao asked suspiciously: "Looking for someone?"

"Looking for a classroom." Li Yuan laughed: "How do I get to Martial Arts Room 4011?"

"4011?" Wan Xiao was stunned: "Fourth floor? That's the independent martial arts room for seniors, but Martial Arts Room 11 isn't open, right? There's no one there."

"There's no one yet." Li Yuan laughed: "There will be once I arrive."

Wan Xiao's pupils shrank; he wasn't stupid, and couldn't help but say: "Your independent martial arts room?"

Li Yuan nodded with a smile: "It's my first time here, take me to recognize the way."

Fourth floor, in front of Independent Martial Arts Room 4011.

Watching Li Yuan directly open the martial arts room door through 'facial recognition', Wan Xiao finally completely believed that what Li Yuan said was true.

On his face, the shock he couldn't hide remained.

"Awesome, approved by Teacher Xu?" Wan Xiao stood at the entrance of the martial arts room and sighed.

Li Yuan laughed.

"That's right." Wan Xiao said: "Besides not awakening martial arts spirituality, in terms of raw score, you are indeed qualified to come here."

Deep down, Wan Xiao admired Li Yuan very much.

Li Yuan stood in the martial arts room, looking around; the martial arts room was about 150 square meters and was cleaned very cleanly.

He pulled open the curtains.

Sunlight spilled in, making it bright.

Fist power testing field, life blood-Qi detector, projector, camera... there was even a virtual network cabin.

Except for the lack of a speed-testing track due to space issues, all other technological equipment was available.

"From today on, this is my independent martial arts room?" A trace of joy was deep in Li Yuan's eyes.

With an independent martial arts room and no one to disturb him, the practice efficiency would naturally be higher.

Wan Xiao stood at the entrance of the martial arts room, and there was a trace of envy in his eyes too.

Independent martial arts room? He actually didn't care!

The martial arts room in his home wasn't worse than the school's independent martial arts room.

What Wan Xiao cared about was this honor.

Suddenly.

"Wan Xiao, what are you doing here? Who let you open the door to Martial Arts Room 4011?" A cold shout came from the end of the corridor.
