next time he should meditate in his dorm or some other hidden place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of the Student Union.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian planned to find time tomorrow to go there and learn the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lunch break passed quickly, and physical education class was about to begin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian arrived early at the playground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t as cramped as the classrooms—just a standard school playground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center was a lush green soccer field, surrounded by eight lanes of cement running tracks, beyond which stood a four-tier cement bleacher, behind which was a wire fence, and beyond that, dense trees and flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian walked to the central lawn and was surprised to find it was real grass, soft underfoot; with the sun at its peak, strolling across the playground stirred memories of his own school days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were many students on the playground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quick glance suggested nearly a hundred—about a third of the dormitory residents were here, with occasional students still running toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the Juanren  were Su Mi and Huo Shutong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the newcomers were Ji Yaning and Liu Shuli from the Resort Island, male college student Han Hao and Xia Wentao, and female college student Wu Banqing; these eight gathered together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian took a quick look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw that Su Mi and Huo Shutong’s red bars were unchanged from this morning, while among the newcomers, three besides Wu Banqing had lost one bar each, Liu Shuli had only one bar left, and all their faces looked grim—they’d clearly been worn down all morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eight of them exchanged a few words, then the PE teacher appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The PE teacher’s first appearance shocked everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had neat short hair, wore a fitted white short-sleeve shirt with fluorescent green stripes on the sides, black athletic pants, and black-green athletic shoes; on his left wrist was a stopwatch, and around his neck hung a blue whistle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what terrified them was what lay beyond his clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His massive torso was covered in dense wounds; large patches of his white undershirt were soaked in blood, half his face torn away, revealing a gruesome set of teeth, and the muscle tissue beneath the wounds still writhed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other teachers weren’t normal either, but at least they looked human at first glance; the PE teacher’s appearance was already inhuman—how terrifying would his class be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doo~ The PE teacher blew his whistle and shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone, form four horizontal lines!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forming lines in school always took effort, but everyone here was an adult and terrified of death; not only did they line up quickly, they stood perfectly straight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The PE teacher nodded in satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At ease! Stand at attention! I’m Guo Xiaodong, your PE teacher—you can call me Teacher Guo. I’ll be leading all your physical education classes at the Immigrant School.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian’s expression flickered with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previous two teachers had only been referred to by title; why did the PE teacher have a name? What made him different from the other two?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Xiaodong continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My class has no complicated rules—only three.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First: no tardiness or early departure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second: no lying down or sitting on the grass.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Third: complete all movements I require before class ends.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Guo Xiaodong finished speaking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the students erupted in murmurs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the Student Union’s student code listed five rules for PE class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fourth: There is only one PE teacher, and only the one during PE class is real.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifth: After class, never agree to help the PE teacher return the sports equipment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the Etiquette Teacher, the PE teacher had concealed two rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Xian did not join the students’ discussion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two rules revealed two things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First: they might encounter the PE teacher after class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second: any PE teacher outside of class hours would bring danger to students. The rules didn’t forbid talking, so the PE teacher didn’t stop their whispers—he didn’t need to; his voice was louder than theirs, and every word he spoke reached every student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, follow my command: spread out two meters apart!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To prevent injuries during training, I’ll lead you through warm-up exercises. First, neck stretches: keep your body upright, feet shoulder-width apart…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Xiaodong actually led all one hundred students through warm-up exercises on the playground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After neck stretches came shoulder stretches, then chest expansions, knee rotations, side leg stretches, wrist and ankle rotations…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Banqing grew increasingly relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of the three courses, she’d feared PE the most—her physical condition had never been strong since childhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as the warm-up progressed, her mindset eased; these movements were so familiar—she’d done them countless times since childhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the warm-up was this easy, even if the main part was terrifying, surely she could endure it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Finally, bring your feet and legs together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bend forward, keep your legs straight, try to touch your toes with your hands—to complete the forward bend stretch…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Banqing bent easily, her fingers brushing her shoe tips—her flexibility was still excellent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puff! Wu Banqing’s body sank suddenly, nearly collapsing onto the grass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she bent forward, something had pressed hard against her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like a prank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she looked left and right—no one was playing tricks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the PE teacher said they could stand up, Wu Banqing rose in confusion; she felt her body had grown heavier, and something faintly sticky seemed glued to both cheeks…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1115,"2026-06-20T14:31:07.793Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","818e815c03ae6ee51a4e21eaff070ee369a8b74fba92d177405d87b9b0a50683","heavenly-official-bestows-evil-chapter-517","heavenly-official-bestows-evil-chapter-515",556,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheavenly-official-bestows-evil-cover.jpg"]
