Chapter 3: Unawakened High-Level Spirituality

"Did I see that right? Li Yuan's physical fitness is 6.5? Improved by 0.5 since the June final exam?"

"In less than three months, improved by 0.5?"

"The current number one in martial arts in the grade, Lin Lanyue, who is said to have hope of getting into Starry Sky University, didn't improve that fast."

"Is the instrument broken?"

"We only see the school using it, not repairing it. It's normal for it to be broken." The hundred or so classmates were all shocked, their gazes moving between Li Yuan and the screen.

Most people actually understood in their hearts that the probability of the instrument breaking was close to zero.

The key was that Li Yuan's physical fitness improvement speed was indeed terrifying.

In the elite class, students who have awakened martial arts spirituality and have wealthy family conditions also find it hard to have such a perverted physical fitness improvement speed.

"I've been working so hard recently, spending the holidays in the cultivation room, eating all kinds of supplements every day, and my physical fitness only just reached 6.0. I thought I could narrow the gap with Li Yuan." Wan Xiao, who was as sturdy as a bear, couldn't help but think: "As a result, the gap is even bigger?"

The two had a good relationship. Wan Xiao had always taken Li Yuan as his goal, hoping to catch up to Li Yuan.

"6.5! Brother Yuan 666!" Zhou Qi couldn't help but shout. He instinctively felt happy for Li Yuan.

Ten meters away.

"6.5? How could Li Yuan's physical fitness improvement speed be so fast?" Teacher Xu also couldn't remain calm.

Accepting the test today, Li Yuan didn't awaken martial arts spirituality, and he was a bit disappointed in his heart.

Wan Xiao awakening martial arts spirituality was a pleasant surprise.

Now, Li Yuan's physical fitness level was a surprise.

"If he awakened martial arts spirituality and practiced high-stage cultivation methods, improving by 0.5 in less than three months wouldn't be too rare... but he accepted the test at noon and clearly didn't awaken martial arts spirituality." Teacher Xu had many thoughts in his mind: "Besides, he didn't have time to practice."

As an Entry Rank martial artist who had also struggled in the military, Xu Bo's vision was not something students could reach.

In just a few seconds, he thought of many possibilities.

"Li Yuan." Teacher Xu said in a low voice: "Don't rush to test your skill level. Go to the track first, test your burst speed, and then test your fist strength again."

"Yes." Li Yuan nodded. He understood Teacher Xu's idea.

The life blood test instrument has a very low probability of error, but there are ways to deceive its sensing system and make the data distorted.

There is a possibility of faking.

But the speed and strength a person can burst out cannot be faked.

"This is to conduct a comprehensive test."

"It seems Teacher Xu doesn't have absolute certainty either."

"What can Li Yuan's burst speed reach?"

"Hard to say. The life blood test instrument detects comprehensive data, and everyone's situation is different. Even if the physical fitness level is the same, some people's speed will be faster, some fist strength will be higher, and some endurance will be stronger." All the classmates whispered, most of them paying attention.

They were all curious in their hearts.

If Li Yuan's physical fitness is really 6.5, how much higher will his martial arts score ranking in the grade be?

"Enable authorization, conduct sprint speed test, fist strength test, record." Teacher Xu said coldly, a red light flashing on his wrist.

"Buzz~" White light projected from above the classroom, illuminating the dark red metal track about 40 meters long on the left side of the classroom.

On the track, there were also many faint lights flashing.

This is the reason why the martial arts classroom occupies such a large space.

A large number of technological instruments used to detect physical data need space.

Like the martial arts classroom of the elite class, the floor area will be larger, resembling a small gymnasium.

"Test burst speed?" Li Yuan put the spear on the silver metal floor and came to the entrance of the track, took a deep breath, and quickly calmed down.

Speed test is not just a short sprint.

During the martial arts college entrance exam, there will be speed tests of 40 meters, 100 meters, 1 kilometer, and 10 kilometers in sequence.

The score proportion is highest for the 40-meter speed test, followed by the 10-kilometer long-distance run.

One tests instantaneous burst speed, the other tests endurance.

"Martial artist combat often decides life and death in two or three moves or even a single encounter. Life and death are only on the line, so instantaneous burst speed is the most important." Li Yuan quickly adjusted his state: "But in war, one often faces more than one enemy, and the combat process will last a long time, so endurance is also important."

Li Yuan clearly understood that the establishment of the college entrance exam items was all closely related to war.

In this era, the human civilization of Blue Star and even the seven planets faces huge survival crises.

War is the main theme of the entire society.

Hoo!

Adjusting his state with breathing, in one breath and one inhalation, Li Yuan's whole body suddenly tightened and combined, like a big bow suddenly pulling the string, the strength transmitted through the waist and hips directly to his legs, and his whole body had already rushed out like an arrow from the string.

The source of strength, the root is in the feet, starting from the legs.

The instantaneous burst strength of the thighs is far stronger than other parts of the body.

Swish!

The 40-meter track, Li Yuan rushed over in a few seconds, directly hitting the buffer wall at the end of the track.

The buffer wall is similar to sponge, but the material is more special, specially made by the school to protect students.

Tick!

On the screen on the wall at the end of the track, data appeared—"14.2 m/s".

This is Li Yuan's sprint speed, not average speed.

"So fast."

"It seems Li Yuan's physical fitness really reached 6.5." The surrounding students communicated with each other, completely convinced.

They all knew that Li Yuan practiced the "Rock Cultivation Method," which excels in strength.

Li Yuan's speed is so fast, what about strength?

"14.2 m/s? Not bad." Teacher Xu nodded slightly and said directly: "Test fist strength again."

The fist strength test venue area is much smaller, located in the corner of the classroom, not very conspicuous.

Li Yuan stood on the test venue.

Whoosh~ Several white light rays projected from the instrument overhead, directly covering Li Yuan to detect whether Li Yuan's movements were standard and qualified.

Fist strength test is not to pursue the ultimate burst strength, but refers to the strongest strength that can be burst out by a single arm when standing still.

If one can't even stabilize the body when punching, then no matter how strong the burst strength is, it makes no sense. In life-and-death combat, one will only be caught by the enemy and killed in one move.

"Relax first." Li Yuan adjusted his breathing, his tightened body gradually relaxed, his feet separated, his knees bent slightly, so that he could generate greater propulsion when kicking the ground at the moment of punching.

Following that, at the moment of exhaling, Li Yuan's spine was like a big dragon, his left foot stepped sideways slightly, his right foot kicked the ground, twisting through his waist and abdomen, instantly inducing the strength of his waist and back, transmitting the whole body's strength to his right arm from bottom to top.

Five fingers combined into a fist!

The right fist, like a cannonball out of the chamber, slammed into the giant sandbag hanging in front.

"Boom!" A dull explosion sound.

Instantly.

The screen on the fist strength test venue clearly displayed: "424 kg (Action qualified)".

"Damn!"

"424 kg! Awesome!"

"This kind of fist strength is not far from the level 7 physical fitness standard. I remember the fist strength requirement for level 7 physical fitness is 450 kg." An uproar, Li Yuan's classmates were completely shocked.

Martial arts is not about nourishing life. The data of the life blood test instrument can only be a reference.

What is exerted in real combat is what is convincing.

The entire Blue Star and even the Seven Stars Alliance have strict divisions for the burst speed and fist strength corresponding to physical fitness levels:

Level 5: 10 m/s, fist strength 200 kg

Level 6: 13 m/s; fist strength 300 kg

Level 7: 15 m/s, fist strength 450 kg

Level 8: 18 m/s; fist strength 800 kg

Level 9: 20 m/s, fist strength 1000 kg

Although due to individual talent differences and different cultivation methods, everyone's bias will be different, but it will not be too far from the level standard.

Li Yuan's life blood test instrument showed level 6.5, and the burst speed is in the normal range.

But his fist strength is very close to the level 7 standard.

"My fist strength burst is not even 300 kg yet." Wan Xiao subconsciously gripped the battle saber in his hand: "Is the gap between me and Li Yuan already this big?"

"Practice 'tight in loose', use 'loose in tight', use true tightness to hit hard and fierce. This student of mine, it seems he has really mastered the essence of basic cultivation methods." Teacher Xu had extremely strong eyes and saw the doorway.

Normal people find it hard to exert all their physical strength, and it's quite good to exert 90%.

One must figure out the strength of the whole body and condense this strength to exert 100% strength.

Li Yuan clearly basically did it.

"Not bad." Teacher Xu rarely revealed a smile.

This scene made many students secretly surprised.

One must know that when Wan Xiao awakened martial arts spirituality, Teacher Xu didn't smile.

Li Yuan listened to the surrounding sounds, calm on the surface, but a bit dissatisfied in his heart.

"According to the Divine Palace panel display, my instantaneous burst speed should be able to reach 14.4 m/s, and the strongest fist strength burst should be 426 kg." Li Yuan frowned slightly: "It seems I still haven't exerted my physical fitness perfectly."

At this moment.

In Li Yuan's field of vision, there was a nearly transparent light curtain that others couldn't perceive and only he could see.

——

【Life Layer: 6.6 (Not Entry Rank)】

Physical Fitness Index: 72 (Refers to comprehensive measurement of burst strength, endurance, speed, physique, mental strength, etc.)

Fist Strength: 426 kg

Speed: 14.4 m/s

Mental Strength: 12.4

Physical Cultivation Method: "Rock Cultivation Method"

Spiritual Cultivation Method: "Observation of the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture"

Skill Realm: Spear Technique (Stage 3 36%), Movement Technique (Stage 3 21%), Fist Technique (Stage 3 88%)

【Note: There is some unawakened high-level spirituality hidden in the body】

——

The entire light curtain, as long as Li Yuan moves his mind, will appear in front of his eyes and can clearly present his martial arts cultivation.

This was awakened suddenly after Li Yuan's physical fitness reached 5.0 in his second year of high school.

At first, Li Yuan thought this was a "system" or "data panel" like in some novels he read.

Later, after repeated attempts to confirm, he found that the light curtain itself only has a detection function, just like a "cultivation test instrument" that is precise to the extreme.

It cannot directly improve Li Yuan's martial arts cultivation.

"However, the 'Observation of the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture' brought by the Spiritual Divine Palace has already given me enough help." Li Yuan recited silently.

While pondering.

Li Yuan returned to the silver metal floor and grabbed his black spear.

His gaze fell on Teacher Xu ten meters away, the panel in front of his eyes changed, and a string of text messages appeared:

【Target person, life layer exceeds sensing limit (Current life layer sensing limit is 16.6)】

"Teacher Xu, please enlighten me." Li Yuan first bowed, then his body suddenly rushed, crossing several meters, instantly exerting force, the long spear carrying the sharp whistling sound of tearing the air, straight towards Xu Bo.

"Hmm? This spear technique!" Xu Bo's eyes completely brightened.
