Chapter 9: The First Attempt at Triggering a Bug

Shrek Academy itself is a place of screening, and your teaching can only be said to play a supporting role.

If hard work were useful, what would geniuses be for?

Su Yu actually holds Shrek's philosophy in great disdain; with sufficient resources and high-quality students, if they still couldn't develop, then they would truly be hopeless.

In comparison, the Sun Moon Empire has taken a completely different path of Soul Guidance Technology; this innovation is truly astonishing, and at the same time, they possess the foundation of Soul Masters. For a nation, the development of Soul Masters has reached a peak, and beyond that are the gods.

Looking around, how many Soul Masters can become gods? Later facts provided powerful proof that developing Soul Guidance Technology is an inevitable trend.

As for Shrek today, if it weren't for its own powerful strength and the accumulation of ten thousand years of heritage, it truly would not be able to withstand the Sun Moon Empire's offensive.

But if it weren't for Huo Gua becoming a god in the later stages, the Sun Moon Empire would surely have unified the world!

Therefore, Su Yu does not really agree with the philosophy of Shrek Academy.

Zhou Yi still had that serious look, "In the few days since registration, those who have fought, stand up."

Su Yu stood up without even thinking; seeing Su Yu stand up, Wang Dong snorted and stood up as well, not wanting to be outdone.

Just like usual, there were always a few disobedient troublemakers who came to question Zhou Yi.

But the ending was that they were bullied by Zhou Yi into being sent out to run as punishment; before leaving, Huo Yu Hao looked at Su Yu with some guilt.

It seems the author, Tang, has a soft spot for fighting at the start of school: the tryst in the bushes between the rabbit and the grass in Dou I, the ground counter-kill in Dou II, the miserable state of Xie Xie being punched away in Dou III...

It seems this has become a necessary tradition for the protagonist?

Su Yu didn't want to listen to Zhou Yi's nagging, so he pulled Wang Dong and ran out, not forgetting to look back and say, "Teacher Zhou, I know you want to stall for time. It's fine for a man to have spirit, but you can't set us up..."

"What a clever little fellow, I just don't know if you'll still be able to be this sharp-tongued in the future..."

Watching the backs of Su Yu and Wang Dong as they left, Zhou Yi gave Su Yu a meaningful look, a smile of a successful scheme appearing at the corner of her mouth.

In the original work, Zhou Yi seemed to have chatted with them for quite some time; usually, Huo Gua wouldn't have been exhausted to the point of death.

"What are you doing? The teacher hadn't finished speaking, and you just ran off like that. That's not very good, will that crazy teacher..." Wang Dong was a bit depressed, but still ran out.

Looking at Wang Dong's depressed expression, Su Yu said, "What are you counting on? Counting on being nagged at for a long time, and then being exhausted to death trying to finish a hundred laps in time? Can't you use your brain?"

"Su Yu, you..."

"You what you, just shut up..."

Looking at the long-distance running team, Su Yu knew that things were bad now; in the original work, one lap was three hundred meters, and one hundred laps was thirty thousand meters.

Is this a thirty-kilometer cross-country run?

However, by comparison, Huo Gua's body in the original work was not good, but he was still able to finish within twelve laps of the time limit, so in other words, Su Yu didn't have any worries.

The bug of the Mysterious Heaven Technique was also triggered when Huo Gua was under pressure, but Su Yu didn't know if he could trigger it, but for things like bugs, once you know the method, you can trigger them a few more times; those who know, know, hahaha...

Without a second word, regarding running, on Blue Star, this is a compulsory course for every Shenzhou citizen student; who hasn't run? As long as one is determined to exercise, one naturally knows how to control their breathing.

One hundred and twenty minutes, with less than ten minutes wasted by Zhou Yi, there were one hundred and ten minutes left; one lap required running over two hundred and seventy meters per minute.

For Su Yu, who was already level fifteen and had practiced the Mysterious Heaven Technique, it was indeed not difficult.

As expected, Su Yu used a faster speed to quickly push himself to a state of extreme fatigue; the human body itself contains endless mysteries, or rather, the human being as a high-level intelligent life form is a miracle in itself.

The strengthening of the physical body requires constantly breaking through limits, and the bug of the Mysterious Heaven Technique might be Huo Gua breaking through his own limits.

Under those circumstances, even Wang Dong couldn't hold on; a little deduction is enough to know why.

Su Yu's speed was even faster than Wang Dong's, not caring at all about the consumption of stamina; after half an hour, Su Yu was already far in the lead, even seven or eight laps ahead of them.

But it was precisely because of this reckless running that Su Yu's stamina also reached its limit.

Gradually his speed slowed down, and Wang Dong behind him caught up and overtook him.

One lap, two laps...

Su Yu's lap count was constantly being caught up by Wang Dong; ten-odd minutes later, Wang Dong had already overtaken Su Yu, even being half a lap ahead of him.

"What's the use of running fast? With your strength, so what if you have a Century Soul Ring? How could you possibly be my opponent?" Looking at Su Yu's panting appearance, Wang Dong suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction that was hard to describe.

"So, so, so what? You still, still lost to me."

Su Yu didn't bother with Wang Dong anymore, watching as Wang Dong was about to complete the requirement of one hundred laps.

The protagonist is the protagonist; Huo Gua was still said to be protected by Wang Dong, while I am being mocked, and I have nothing. Is there any justice in this?

More than half the time had passed, and Zhou Yi had also designated the finish line; Wang Dong was still the first to complete one hundred laps.

"Looks like the bug-triggering failed; I guess the pressure wasn't enough. Next time I'll try wearing an Iron Vest; I'll succeed after triggering it a few more times."

The level fifteen Su Yu naturally had a better physical foundation than Huo Gua's thin and weak body; even if he had consumed too much stamina earlier, he still broke through his limit once later on.

After enduring the painful process of extreme fatigue, once the limit was broken, the subsequent feeling of exhilaration was exceptionally refreshing.

Although the ranking wasn't very ideal, it could be considered upper-tier: twentieth place.

There was still half an hour left, and Huo Yu Hao still had some distance to go, but Su Yu knew that the time was enough.

With twenty minutes left, Su Yu stood up and said, "Those who haven't finished, hurry up and run! Don't think you can slack off in front of a Six-Ring Soul Emperor! If you don't want to be expelled, take advantage of the remaining time to finish."

In order to fight for more opportunities in this class, to attract Zhou Yi's attention, and for the allocation of resources, he had to do this.

When these words were spoken, Zhou Yi was also somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected that there would actually be someone who would remind everyone, even under the circumstance of potentially being punished.

"This little fellow who fights, he's actually quite interesting."

It must be said that Su Yu's words were somewhat effective; some people consciously walked out of the rest area at the finish line and started running one after another.

Very good, the goal was achieved.

Time ended, and this time no one was eliminated; after all, in the original work, with Huo Gua's level eleven strength, he could barely complete it when time was sufficient. If these students who were properly admitted couldn't complete it, then they really shouldn't come to Shrek; they should go home and herd cattle!

"Good, today you have passed the assessment. You should thank Su Yu, otherwise at least one-tenth of you would have been expelled. All return to the dorms to change clothes, then come back to the classroom for class. I'll give you a quarter of an hour." After speaking, Zhou Yi turned and returned to the teaching building.

This time, no one dared to provoke Zhou Yi's authority again, and they all rushed back to the dorms as if flying.

"That old woman is truly ruthless, but why did you speak up to remind those people? What does it have to do with you if they are eliminated?"

Wang Dong complained, but was still very puzzled by Su Yu's sudden reminder.

Looking at Wang Dong's puzzled appearance, Su Yu said, "Why are you asking so much?"

"You, hmph..." Wang Dong snorted and didn't pursue the question further.

"Whether you change clothes first or I do, I still remember my five rules." Standing at the dormitory entrance, Su Yu spoke up.

Watching Su Yu suddenly speak, Wang Dong hesitated for a moment and said, "You go first. Don't peek at me; if I catch you, I'll kill you."

"We're both men, why would I peek at you? What on earth is running through your head at such a young age?"

Nonsense, if I peeked now, wouldn't everything be ruined? I can still tell the difference between one full meal and being full for every meal.
