Gao Wu: If this BOSS isn't nerfed, is it even playable?

Chapter 121 Heavenly Chasm
The two lines of text on the screen were perfectly clear.

But when combined, they create a magical feeling that is almost absurd.

After a brief silence and shock.

A heated discussion broke out in the room.

"Dongjiang No.1 Middle School? What kind of school is that? Is it a municipal school?"

"No, didn't you guys notice what's truly outrageous? Class 7 of the third year? In Wu Ke High School, aren't the top students only in Class 1 and Class 2? How did a student from Class 7 manage to reach the top?!"

"Does this mean that if a student like this can only be relegated to Class 7 at Dongjiang No. 1 Middle School, how terrifying must the students in Class 1 be?"

"Hiss... This is terrifying!"

Chen Meng listened to the discussion around him.

I'm starting to lose my composure.

We are not, we don't exist.

For a moment, the place was bustling with noise.

But eventually someone realized the real key.

Those are Lin Ye's two data points!

Previously, Xue Wangshu's Qi and Blood Index of 158 points had already astonished everyone, earning him the reputation of a prodigy that Dongjiang had only seen once in decades.

But now, this guy named Lin Ye has raised that number by nearly 80 points!
What's even more chilling is this person's life index!
204.77!

For martial artists, improving their life index is far more difficult than improving their qi and blood index.

Xue Wangshu's life index, which is almost 100, has been the subject of much discussion, with many people believing that his foundation is terrifyingly strong.

What about Ke Linye?

He more than doubled that number!
What is this concept?
It's like two top athletes having a long-distance race.

Lin Ye directly circled his opponent's gloves!

"That's a bit exaggerated, isn't it? This kind of data is something a high school student shouldn't have!"

"Yes! There must be something wrong with the equipment! How could such a monster come from the bottom-ranked class of a municipal school!"

Doubts arose.

But it was quickly drowned out by other voices.

"Shut up, all of you! Didn't you see that the leaders on the second floor haven't said a word? Do you think this level of exam is child's play?"

"All the equipment has the highest level of anti-cheating system; if there were any problems, an alarm would have sounded long ago!"

Just as the whole place was buzzing with discussion about Lin Ye, this monster who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere...

The live feed is on the main screen.

The result of Lin Ye's punch, which he had just unleashed, was finally determined by the system under the watchful eyes of everyone.

A line of numbers with a strong visual impact appeared.

Punching power: 23634.29 kg!

If the previous Qi and blood and life index were just abstract data.

So now, this solid punching power value is a resounding slap in the face to all those who questioned the instrument's malfunction!

One punch, twenty-three tons!

Inside the observation hall, countless teachers stared at the number, feeling a wave of dizziness and an even greater sense of absurdity.

Because let alone a martial arts high school student.

Even many martial artists who spend their entire lives stuck at the peak of the Meridian Opening Realm cannot achieve half of this value!
In the seating area of ​​Tianxing Martial Arts High School, the expressions of the principal and a group of teachers were beyond just ugly.

It was a pale white color mixed with horror and humiliation.

Their trump card, their pride, Xue Wangshu's nearly eight-ton punching power, seemed like a joke in the face of this number.

They have more than one digit more than you.

The number is still three times yours!
Finally, the homeroom teacher of Class 1 at Tianxing Martial Arts High School suddenly smiled.

People really laugh when they are speechless.

Chen Meng also shook his head slightly.

The smile on her face never stopped.

He had considered that Lin Ye would be very strong, and even thought that he could enter the top ten and challenge the top five.

But he never dreamed that Lin Ye wasn't there to cause trouble.

He's here to crush the number one!
Second floor, private viewing area.

Li Kainian watched the screen with great interest, and for the first time, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"One punch weighs over 23,000 kilograms... Zheng Guo, is your student really just from an ordinary family?"

Wang Zhengguo's heart was pounding in his chest; he felt like he was about to suffocate with happiness.

He suppressed his excitement, his voice trembling slightly.

“Director, we can’t say we know him inside and out, but I’ve personally inquired about his family situation! In terms of family background alone, he’s even worse off than some ordinary students at our school…”

Wang Zhengguo felt somewhat guilty as he said those words.

He also felt it was outrageous.

But Li Kainian nodded and said nothing more.

The way the bigwigs from Dongjiang City looked at Wang Zhengguo changed.

Envy, jealousy, and a deep sense of bewilderment.

What the hell is this luck?
How did Dongjiang No.1 Middle School manage to find such a hidden gem?
……

Inside the test field.

Lin Ye stood in front of the punching target, his brows slightly furrowed.

Another long wait.

The system notification tone didn't sound for a long time, and he even suspected that the entire exam system might have malfunctioned today.

He had no idea that every test result he received was like a depth charge.

This caused a huge uproar in the external invigilation center and the waiting hall for spectators.

The proctors responsible for reviewing the data dared not confirm the upload immediately when faced with data that was completely beyond the scope of the syllabus.

Every piece of data needs to be repeatedly checked, and may even need to be reported to higher-level leaders for manual confirmation.

This is what caused the delay in the process.

Fortunately, they finally received orders from above that all of Lin Ye's subsequent test results must be confirmed as passed.

Then a unified review will be conducted to ensure that the candidates' exam rhythm and mindset are not affected.

With this order, Lin Ye's testing process finally returned to normal.

"The punching power test results have been entered. Please proceed to the next area."

A cold electronic sound sounded.

Lin Ye stepped into the next room.

This is a special gravity chamber filled with precision sensors, with a professional speed-measuring treadmill placed in the center.

"This test item: 100-meter burst speed test."

Lin Ye stood on the machine, his feet resting on the cold metal tracks.

He adjusted his breathing, bringing his body to its most perfect explosive state.

"Test, begin!"

The moment the notification sound rang, Lin Ye's body was like a taut bowstring that was released in an instant!
On the screen, Lin Ye's figure instantly turned into a blurry afterimage!

The frequency of his stride and the swing of his arms became bizarre.

On the second floor, Li Kainian's eyes flickered.

It wasn't because of Lin Ye's speed.

It was because of Lin Ye's reaction!
For top talents, speed is certainly important in the 100-meter test, but reaction speed at the start is also key to widening the gap.

If your reaction time is slow, your overall performance will naturally be slower as well.

However, if you go too fast, it will be considered a false start, and your result will be invalid.

Lin Ye's starting moment almost perfectly coincided with the sound of the prompt, with an error of no more than one-thousandth of a second!
This ability to control timing is mostly seen in martial artists with high mental strength.

drop!
Almost the instant everyone had seen Lin Ye's starting motion, a crisp notification sound announced the end of the test.

It's so fast that people can't even react!
The final results appeared on the screen.

[Test Item: 100-meter burst speed]

[Final time: 2.21 seconds!]

Chen Meng glanced subconsciously at the split screen, at the original first place for the project.

Xue Wangshu, 3.19 seconds.

The difference was almost a second!

In the 100-meter dash, even 0.1 seconds is a huge difference, and a one-second difference...

That's no longer a contest on the same level!

Without a moment's rest, the second endurance test began immediately in the same room.

[Test Item: 10km Endurance Run under Gravity]

Initial gravity: 2 times

[Rule: Gravity increases by 0.5 times for every kilometer completed]

For martial artists at the Qi Opening Realm, a regular 10-kilometer run is no challenge at all.

Therefore, the core of this test is weighted endurance running, and it is at least twice the weight of gravity endurance running!
As the test began, Lin Ye did not hold back at all and immediately unleashed his maximum speed.

His legs moved so fast on the treadmill that they were almost blurry!

Lin Ye was running this 10-kilometer endurance test at almost the same speed as when he sprinted the 100 meters!

drop!
Just over twenty seconds later, the first notification sound rang out.

Gravity multiplier increased, currently: 2.5 times.

However, on the screen, Lin Ye's speed was not affected in any way!
Still ferocious! Still swift!
drop!
Gravity multiplier increased, currently: 3.0 times.

drop!
Gravity multiplier increased, currently: 3.5 times.

The frequency of the notification sounds is increasing!
Everyone was dumbfounded.

Because Lin Ye's speed did not slow down due to the increase in gravity, but instead it was actually slightly increasing!
What they don't know is.

With each increase in gravity, Lin Ye mobilized more of his qi and blood, channeling it into his legs to forcefully resist the ever-increasing pressure!

This mock exam is crucial to whether he can secure a spot in the Qiming Generals Training Camp.

He doesn't allow himself to keep anything to himself.

What he wanted was a complete and utter crushing defeat, leaving no room for suspense!
More than three minutes passed.

The gravity inside the room has reached a terrifying 6.5 times!
Under such immense pressure, even metal would be slightly deformed, yet Lin Ye continued to run wildly!

His forehead was covered in large beads of sweat, and his breathing became heavy.

But his legs, like a tireless perpetual motion machine, continued to maintain that terrifying frequency!

Only a few hundred meters left!

He didn't slow down!
drop!
[Test complete!]

The terrifying gravity receded like a tide.

Lin Ye instantly felt a sense of lightness throughout his body. He gripped the handrail of the treadmill, breathing slightly heavily, trying to regulate the surging blood and qi within his body.

The final result, displayed on the screen, stopped. [Final Result: 37km completed in 3 minutes 65 seconds!]

This time, no one needed to remind me.

All eyes turned to the leaderboard on the split screen.

Xue Wangshu's result was 6 minutes and 2 seconds to complete the 10 kilometers.

Another fault line!
A terrifying gap of nearly two and a half minutes!
At this point, all physical fitness tests for basic martial arts have been completed.

On the split-screen leaderboard, Lin Ye's name was prominently displayed at the top of all categories.

The huge data gap between him and the second place is like an insurmountable chasm.

Tianxing Martial Arts Academy and other prestigious schools, including all their faculty and staff.

They all felt like they'd been slapped hard across the face.

The pride and self-esteem on their faces had long since vanished, leaving only numbness and bewilderment.

Their anxiety finally died.

……

"All basic martial arts assessments are complete. Please follow the instructions to leave the testing area!"

Lin Ye stepped off the treadmill and followed the arrows that appeared on the ground to exit the gravity chamber.

He followed an upward passage and eventually arrived at a huge indoor room.

The room's layout was very similar to the computer room in his university in his previous life, with rows of test stations neatly arranged.

Hanging from the ceiling is a strangely shaped metal sphere covered with countless mirrors.

Most of the candidates who were in the same preparation area as him had already arrived.

They each sat in front of their respective cameras, which were flashing their names, their expressions solemn, and they closed their eyes to rest.

Lin Ye found his seat and sat down.

A line of text was displayed on the computer screen:

[The next test is about to begin. Please relax, enter a state of visualization, and adjust your mental state to its best.]

Lin Ye's eyes flickered slightly.

He got it.

This test should be the so-called mental strength and stress resistance test.

Lin Ye closed his eyes and his breathing became steady.

To recover from the fatigue of the previous endurance run.

There is a way to recover health after disengaging from combat.

Lin Ye can always ensure that his physical and mental strength are at their best.

Not long after, Lin Ye opened his eyes.

The announcement also rang in my ears.

"The upcoming test is the second major component of the Dongjiang City 167 annual citywide mock exam: the practical performance test."

"Next, we will proceed with the first item: the mental stress test."

Electronic sounds echoed throughout the test venue.

coming!

In the waiting hall for the match.

Chen Meng clenched his fists instantly, his knuckles turning white from the force.

This was the test he was most worried about regarding Lin Ye.

The series of inhuman data that Lin Ye displayed in the basic martial arts test was indeed quite exaggerated.

Lin Ye has been elevated to an unprecedented height, attracting the attention of everyone.

In such a situation, even the slightest flaw will be magnified infinitely.

If he falters in mental strength, he might still be number one in Dongjiang in total score.

But cracks will appear in that image of a "perfect" monster genius.

Chen Meng's gaze involuntarily drifted towards the private viewing area on the second floor.

Those sitting there included not only top figures in Dongjiang City's education system.

There was also a deputy director who actually came from Ninghai Province.

Lin Ye's goal is the Qiming General Training Camp.

It was a battlefield where monsters from all over the province gathered.

Whether Dongjiang City can secure a recommendation for the training camp this year is already uncertain.

If they don't give it to him, no matter how talented Lin Ye is, he won't be able to get in.

Therefore, simply being number one in Dongjiang is far from enough.

Lin Ye must demonstrate his exceptional talent and prove himself to those powerful figures!

……

Lin Ye sat on the cold metal chair, looking at the screen in front of him, his mind at peace.

"Once the test begins, some simple mental arithmetic, logic, reasoning, and verbal common sense questions will appear on the screen in front of each candidate."

"Please complete as many questions as possible while maintaining a high accuracy rate."

"Test, begin!"

Lin Ye was initially puzzled.

Why would a martial arts exam include questions that seem unrelated to martial arts?

The next second, he understood.

An invisible wave, like mercury spilling onto the ground.

It spread out from the mirrored metal sphere above everyone's heads, enveloping the entire room!
That was a purely spiritual form of oppression!
Almost instantly, Lin Ye saw several examinees around him turn pale, their brows furrowed, and their expressions pained.

This is a direct manifestation of mental power being forcibly suppressed.

Lin Ye could clearly sense that this mental pressure was not static, but was gradually increasing at a steady pace.

In this environment, maintaining absolute mental clarity to complete questions that require thinking and logical reasoning naturally increases the difficulty.

Lin Ye tapped his fingertips lightly on the virtual keyboard and began answering the questions.

He was a top student in the humanities, with memory and logical thinking abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people.

In addition, the most difficult questions were only at the junior high school level, which was very easy for him.

The questions on the screen changed rapidly.

A few minutes passed.

The mental pressure coming from above has increased by at least 50%.

Lin Ye's sea of ​​consciousness remained as steady as a rock; this pressure did not even cause him the slightest ripple.

But the other people in the room weren't so lucky.

Those who were able to enter Examination Room No. 1 were all elites from their respective schools, possessing strong character and mental fortitude.

However, under this constant and pervasive mental assault, their mental defenses began to gradually collapse.

Some people started scratching their hair in frustration.

Someone was unconsciously biting their fingers, their gaze unfocused.

Even worse, some people were holding their heads in their hands, their bodies trembling slightly, trying to endure the excruciating pain that felt like it was tearing their brains apart.

Lin Ye didn't pay attention to the people around him.

He knew very well that if he hadn't been continuously strengthening his mental attributes over a long period of time, he would definitely have a place among the struggling crowd right now.

Lin Ye focused his mind and became completely absorbed in the question in front of him.

He kept clicking the mouse, selecting the correct option.

For problems that required calculation, Lin Ye would simply open the draft mode in the blank area next to him, list the formulas, and quickly calculate.

Gradually, some people began to give up.

A student suddenly stood up, his face as pale as paper, and staggered as he tried to rush out of the room.

He was only a few meters from the exit when he could no longer hold on and vomited everything in his stomach.

This person's breakdown is like a signal.

One by one, people chose to give up.

They all knew that their spirits were nearing their limit, and that continuing to push themselves would not only be meaningless but could also cause irreversible damage to their very essence.

Several proctors wearing special protective helmets watched all of this indifferently.

Their muffled voices came from inside their helmets, sounding somewhat distorted in this context.

"Candidates who can't hold on, leave immediately!"

"Don't push yourself! If you faint, lose consciousness, or even become mentally unstable, all your exam scores will be invalidated! It's not worth it!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye felt a chill run down his spine.

These seemingly discouraging words are actually adding more pressure to this mental test.

No one can know exactly where their limits lie.

Should we quit while we're ahead and secure our current score?
Or should we gamble everything to achieve even greater results, even at the risk of failing at the last hurdle?

This multiple-choice question tests human nature more than any logic puzzle on the screen.

Lin Ye, however, had no such concerns.

He discovered that the mental pressure emanating from the metal sphere above his head stabilized after reaching a peak and stopped increasing.

With his current mental strength, he could sit here all day without any problem, let alone complete the test.

Time passes minute by minute.

The number of people in the room is decreasing.

Finally, one candidate, having misjudged his limits, rolled his eyes and fell straight off his chair.

Invigilators immediately stepped forward and swiftly dragged him away.

Immediately afterwards, someone else started talking nonsense and laughing incessantly, and was also quickly taken away.

Just ten minutes.

The once spacious room, which was full of people, now had only three people left.

Apart from Lin Ye, the other two were wearing the school uniforms of Tianxing Martial Arts High School.

They had no idea that the guy in front of them was engrossed in his work, seemingly completely unaffected.

Not long ago, they crushed their school's proudest genius under their feet.

Their pride as students from prestigious schools makes it impossible for them to accept losing to a student from an ordinary school.

Hang in there a little longer!
I can keep going!
I will protect the glory and dignity of Tianxing Martial Arts High School!
Two minutes later.

Both of them fell into a deep, baby-like sleep.

It's good to be young, just fall asleep.

　First update, 5K words.
