We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 36 The Hundred Flowers Ranking

Hiss~hiss~
The cooled blood of the giant lizard seemed to be highly corrosive, having already corroded a small pit in the cement floor, and also emitted an unpleasant odor.

"Luckily, no blood got on my body."

Looking at the scene more than ten meters away, Shen Bailian couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate. He covered his nose and distanced himself again.

For so many years, Bozhou City had been in a relatively peaceful and stable state. The term "Worship God Cult" only appeared in textbooks or on the internet. This was the first time that the noun had become a verb and that the actual object had been seen.

"Let's call the city guards first."

He originally intended to leave directly, but seeing how much damage the giant lizardman's corpse could cause to the surrounding environment, he pondered for a moment and finally decided to call the city guards first, report their location, and then go home.

Although Shen Bailian found it strange that remnants of the God Worship Cult would appear here, it seemed less important compared to the upcoming wilderness trials.

He walked to the basketball hoop, jumped up, took off his smart bracelet, quickly scanned the video at high speed, and after confirming that everything was correct, dialed the city guard's number. After a brief conversation, he sent the video and location to them.

"Captain Yang, do you want to revise his overall evaluation?"

The woman in black glanced through the data Yang Wu had sent her. Looking at the "A-" overall rating, a hint of surprise flashed in her usually calm eyes. She hesitated for a moment before asking a question.

"I don't think there's anything that needs to be changed."

"But."

"No buts." Before the woman in black could finish speaking, Yang Wu interrupted her. He turned to look at her and said in a somewhat admonitory tone, "Geniuses are those who defy common sense. Don't let some data on paper limit your vision."

"Aside from a lack of practical experience, Shen Bailian's performance in this trial, whether in terms of his temperament or his grasp of the rhythm of battle, is almost perfect for his age."

"Most importantly, I saw deep family ties in his information. There are bonds and concerns that prevent one from getting lost in the power and losing one's direction."

Yang Wu stood on the edge of the rooftop. As he spoke, he took a step forward, and a sudden gust of wind arose. He stood steadily in the void, under the bright, gauze-like moonlight.

He glanced at the dim lights on the ground, as if recalling something. After a moment, he left behind the words, "I'll go first," and with a loud bang, his figure suddenly shot straight into the sky.

After making a sharp 90-degree turn at its highest point, it flew straight out of Bozhou City with a slight roar.

The woman in black seemed to be used to this kind of thing. She just glanced at it indifferently and walked back to the elevator.

She was merely a martial artist at the Life Establishment Realm and did not yet possess the ability to fly.

Shen Bailian lived in the outer city area, so many of the infrastructure facilities there were witnesses to the city's development and had long been in disrepair. Even the streetlights were old and flickering.

"Mom and Dad are probably asleep by now."

Shen Bailian glanced at his smart bracelet and realized it was already 11:30, while his parents usually went to bed before 11:00.

But when he turned the corner, when the warm light shone into his heart, when he saw a figure in a wheelchair yawning in front of the shop.

Shen Bailian knew he was wrong.

He straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes, trying to appear as if nothing had happened, and lowered his footsteps, his figure gradually disappearing from the flickering light and blending into the warm glow of the lamplight.
Inside the gymnasium of the Third Middle School in Bortala Prefecture, flags fluttered and muffled thuds echoed.

After two days of inquiries, many students with connections have already gathered most of the peripheral information about this wilderness trial.

This wilderness trial, spearheaded by Kong Chaowu, organized by the Municipal Education Bureau, and with the cooperation of the City Guard, brought together forces from multiple sides, making it arguably the most prestigious lineup in the history of the trial, bar none. Therefore, 56 students from Bortala No. 3 Middle School alone are preparing to participate. However, many of them are not concerned with whether they can participate in the subsequent joint martial arts competition; what they care about is using this opportunity to gain experience in life-or-death combat.

With such a star-studded lineup, the probability of an accident has been reduced to its lowest level in history.

Not to be missed!
However, even if an agreement is signed, participants still need to take a test. Only after achieving the maximum single-arm punching power can they qualify to participate in the Sanqingshan Wilderness Trial.

After all, if you are too weak in the wilderness, you won't even have time to be rescued. Wouldn't that just be feeding the ferocious beasts?
Therefore, the students from Bozhou No. 3 Middle School who want to participate in the wilderness trial have all been gathered in the gymnasium after submitting their agreements. They will first undergo a physical fitness level test, and then a single-arm extreme punching power test.

"Have you heard? Yan'er from No. 5 Middle School in Bozhou was attacked last night and is going to give up this wilderness trial."

Who is Yan'er?

"You don't even know Shangguan Yunyan? She's ranked 3rd on the Bozhou Hundred Flowers Ranking."

My lady, my gentleman is good.

Moreover, these martial arts students, who are far more advanced than physical education students, are at the prime of their youth and harbor extremely beautiful fantasies about the opposite sex.

The Bortala Flower Ranking is a fine tradition passed down by high school students in Bortala over the years. All male high school students vote, while all female high school students participate.

If we're talking about the 100th to 11th places, as long as you're good-looking enough, you can make the list.

The selection of the top ten in the Hundred Flowers Ranking is highly prestigious. Not only must one be outstanding in appearance, but one must also meet the standards in strength. Shangguan Yunyan, who was originally only ranked around 15th, jumped directly to third place with her superb basic spear skills and a single-arm punch strength of over 1300.

"Bro, you're really brave, calling her that so affectionately. Aren't you afraid it'll get back to her and she'll stab your head in the head with her spear?"

A boy who looked rather immature couldn't help but speak up.

"What's there to be afraid of?"

"Ok?"

As Shen Bailian listened to the students' discussion, his brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes gradually deepened.

Yesterday, he found it strange that the giant lizardman was in that place and seemed to have lost his mind.

And now, Shangguan Yunyan has also been attacked on the same night. Isn't that too much of a coincidence?
"What are you thinking about while standing here?"

Wei Peng walked over and patted the boy on the shoulder.

Shen Bailian collected his thoughts, turned to look at Wei Peng, and asked, "How much has your punching power improved now?"

"You'll find out later."

Wei Peng did not answer immediately. Instead, he smiled slightly and replied mysteriously, as if he wanted to give everyone a surprise.

Zhang Xianlong looked at the students below the stage who were discussing amongst themselves, but he did not stop them or shout at them, because he knew that this kind of casual conversation could actually relieve the tension brought about by the wilderness trial.

With a muffled thud, the last student in the third group completed the test of his single-arm maximum punching power.

He waved his hand and called out, "Next, Wei Peng."
