Chapter 231: The unattainable Water of Life
Although the Third High School is just an ordinary high school and doesn't stand out among the many high schools in Yangzhou City,
it is, after all, a public school funded by the government,
and its facilities are not to say how advanced, but the sparrow may be small, yet it has all the vital organs,
and the martial arts hall has training areas and testing rooms.
"Hah, hah!"
Although it was still morning, quite a few students were already sweating profusely in the training area.
Before becoming a martial artist, there are no cultivation manuals,
and all one can do is train, train, and train again,
to forge a body capable of carrying genetic energy later on.
Of course, it would be a different story if one could obtain heavenly treasures that directly improve physical fitness.
However, whether it's having explosive luck and picking up heavenly treasures, or having "money power" at home,
and being able to directly buy various high-tech potions, these are not things ordinary people can imagine.
All ordinary people can do is surpass themselves in repeated training,
until they forge a body of steel and iron at the limit of the human body, and then carry the genetic energy necessary for a martial artist.
"Hello, Teacher."
"Hello, Teacher."
Along the way, students greeted the teacher, who already had the bearing of a Dean of Academic Affairs (mainly due to the bald head).
"Hmm, hello to you too."
"Watch your intensity."
The teacher also responded gently one by one.
Occasionally, he would give guidance to students he saw blindly increasing weight, which could lead to muscle strains or even tears if they were not careful,
telling them not to be too greedy for success and to take it one step at a time.
Don't look at him as a Chinese teacher; his knowledge in the Martial Path is also very rich.
Teacher: Did my strength as a high-level martial arts academy student fall from the sky?
In the testing area, a physical education teacher, whose figure was a few degrees thinner than ordinary people, was leading several students in testing various data.
"Old Zhao, what are you here for?"
The PE teacher greeted them enthusiastically after seeing their teacher.
"It's these two little brats who said they had a bit of a breakthrough, so I brought them to test it."
The teacher stepped aside, revealing Zhang Jie and Luo Feng who were following behind him.
"Hello, Teacher Wang."
Zhang Jie and Luo Feng both greeted this PE teacher honestly.
Don't look at this Teacher Wang's thin figure; he is a genuine high-level warrior,
a ruthless person who can punch with a force of several thousand kilograms and compare strength with small vehicles.
It's only because the principal has some connections; otherwise, with the status of the Third High School,
how could they invite such an expert to be a PE teacher?
However, it is rumored that this Teacher Wang had an accident when breaking through to War General and could not go any further,
and in a state of despair, he came to the Third High School to retire and cultivate new blood at the invitation of the principal.
"Hmm, one must always control one's own physical data,
lest one be like me, not knowing one's own limits and greedily advancing, causing damage, and regretting it too late."
Teacher Wang expressed great approval for the teacher's behavior of bringing Zhang Jie and the others to test their data,
and unconcernedly used himself as a negative example.
"Old Wang, with your talent, you will definitely be able to heal your injuries and go further."
Seeing Teacher Wang reveal his own scars, the teacher comforted him.
"Sigh, difficult, difficult, difficult!
Even if I heal, so what? By then, I'm afraid I'll already be over forty,
having missed the best age for progress; in this life, I'll be a War General at most."
Teacher Wang sighed repeatedly, his tone full of unwillingness.
Listening to his "humblebrag," the students present all twitched their mouths.
Listen, is that human language?
Their biggest goal at the moment is just to become a martial artist.
A War General is already a big shot with a face in the entire Yian District,
someone who can talk and laugh with the masters of the Limit Martial Arts Hall and the Thunder Martial Arts Hall here,
and someone whom officials of various agencies must value.
The teacher, who is also a high-level martial arts academy student, also felt he was being "humblebragged" at,
but everyone is a friend, and he also knew this was Teacher Wang's unintentional remark,
so he continued to comfort him: "Since the Great Nirvana, there have been countless heavenly treasures,
maybe one day you will find a treasure that can compensate for your physical damage?"
"Forget it, even if there are heavenly treasures, they are not things I, a half-crippled person, can snatch.
Rather than going to die, it's better to hope that one day the master will suddenly descend from the sky,
and bestow upon me a portion of the Water of Life, allowing me to repair my injuries."
Teacher Wang mocked himself. Ordinary treasures are fine,
but heavenly treasures that can compensate for physical damage are also treasures to fierce beasts,
and they are inevitably guarded by fierce beasts starting at the Beast General level.
For him, a small, high-level warrior who has suffered heavy damage and whose combat power has dropped significantly, to go into the tiger's den to snatch food,
isn't that like lighting a lamp in a latrine—looking for death?
'Water of Life!'
Hearing this name, Luo Feng's palms clenched quietly.
The Water of Life is a rare potion developed by that country on the other side of the ocean,
legend has it that it has the powerful effect of regenerating severed limbs, allowing for the regrowth of severed arms,
the restoration of a residual body, and even half a body can regrow.
It has the magical effect of curing the blind and healing almost all serious illnesses and external injuries.
He doesn't need it for himself for the time being, but his younger brother Luo Hua, who has been disabled since childhood, needs it just like Teacher Wang, who has physical damage.
It's just a pity that since this potion has such a powerful effect,
making it unattainable for a high-level warrior like Teacher Wang, it is naturally worth a fortune.
The market price exceeds 30 billion Chinese yuan per portion, and there is a price but no market.
Zhang Jie, standing with his hands behind his back, didn't care much.
The Water of Life or whatever, not to mention before the golden finger arrived,
even today, after the arrival of the shared space, it is still too far away for him.
Rather than being sad here, it is more realistic to improve his strength and leap to a higher class as soon as possible.
For example, in the War God Palace, which is composed entirely of War God-level powerhouses, the Water of Life can be heavily discounted.
Later, Luo Feng bought a portion at the War God Palace auction for 12 billion Chinese yuan.
"Getting old, it's easy to get sentimental."
Teacher Wang sighed, no longer thinking about the Water of Life that was far away,
collected his emotions, and beckoned to Zhang Jie and the other:
"You two little guys, come over and test first."
The few students queuing for the test didn't care about someone cutting in line; anyway, testing one person wouldn't take long.
They were also a bit curious about how big this "bit of a breakthrough" was,
was it 10 kilograms, 20 kilograms, or 50 kilograms?
It must be said that Zhang Jie and Luo Feng were also the best among those practicing martial arts at the Third High School.
In a situation where there were only three high-level martial arts academy students,
they, who had the strength of intermediate martial arts academy students, were also experts in the top twenty among the students.
The gold content of this ranking is not low; you must know that the Third High School has a full five thousand students!
Of course, this also has to do with the fact that the Third High School is just an ordinary high school,
and most students do not put their energy into the Martial Path,
and practicing martial arts is just for physical fitness, not expecting to embark on the path of a martial artist.
Other special high schools, such as martial arts schools specifically for cultivating martial artists, are entirely composed of students aspiring to be martial artists. ===== CHAPTER 232 =====
