At the same time, Zhang Chaoqiang's attention was also drawn to the crowd that had suddenly fled. He glanced in the direction they had dispersed, and the students who had been standing back halfway through their journey, upon hearing their teacher's words, "How could this happen?", quickened their pace even further...

"Those who don't want to be crippled, run now, or Zhang Chaoqiang will be after us!"

Surprisingly, the area around the arena was completely deserted; even the customers had fled…

When facing Fan Xiaoyong, his will was unwavering, but in that instant, he resolutely chose to run away…

It's like swallowing a bitter pill; you can't express your suffering, and this makes it even harder to explain.

Their attention returned to the teacher: "Teacher, he..."

Zhang Chaoqiang seemed to have mentally examined the task objectives several times, but neither of them showed as completed. The objectives of "Activate Body" and "Slay or be slain by a hundred people" were ever completed.

This fucking proves that there was absolutely no combat relationship between them and Zhu Bopi.

"Strange, how could this be? He looks like he's seriously injured, but when I examined his bones and meridians, I couldn't find anything unusual about Zhu Bobi's body!"

"This kid..."

The female teacher was instantly furious. She said that Zhang Chaoqiang's attack just now was not very lethal. It was obvious that Zhu Bobi was pretending!

With a sharp slap, the teacher delivered a blow to Zhu Bobi's thigh that was neither too strong nor too weak, but still stinging his skin, defeating Zhu Bobi.

"You brat, if you don't want to fight, you can refuse. There's no need to act like a coward on the field and play dead!"

The referee gave Zhu Bobi a disapproving look, believing that Zhu Bobi was stirring up trouble in order to avoid fighting Zhang Chaoqiang.

"Teacher, my chest hurts, please help me!" Zhu Bobi, who had regained consciousness, hurriedly asked for help, the psychological effect making the pain in his chest linger for a long time.

"Stop pretending! You're not injured at all!"

"I'm covered in injuries, and my internal organs are in pain!"

"My chest hurts so much, it really hurts... Help me!"

"Brother Qiang, why did you hit me so hard..."

Seeing Zhu Bobi's pained expression, Zhang Chaoqiang really wanted to go all out and inflict some real injury on him.

However, considering that Zhu Bobi didn't do it intentionally, and it was ultimately a psychological issue, he sighed...

Then he returned to the classroom.

While Zhu Bobi kept asking the referee to send him to the medical room for emergency treatment.

The referee carefully took him to the martial arts school's psychological counseling room.

When Zhang Chaoqiang returned to the classroom, he didn't expect that people would point and whisper about him all the way. When he looked at the students who were talking quietly, they would avoid him and run away.

From her seat, Tan Yue saw Zhang Chaoqiang return, closed the Monster Encyclopedia, and quietly approached Zhang Chaoqiang's ear, her expression devoid of any particular emotion, only boundless curiosity.

"Zhang Chaoqiang, did you go and fight someone during break?"

Zhang Chaoqiang: "..."

That spread really fast…

Zhu Bobi missed two classes that afternoon because of psychological problems, but thankfully they were two self-study periods, which were self-training and combat sessions.

I did not see Zhu Bopi's students.

As school was about to end, Tan Yue asked again:

"Zhang Chaoqiang, did you go and kill someone during break time?"

"..."

After an afternoon of psychotherapy, Zhu Bobi gradually found that the pain in his chest had subsided.

The psychologist told him that this was a psychological phenomenon, and that Zhang Chaoqiang had not actually caused Zhu Bobi internal injuries. It was a delusional psychological reaction and state in Zhu Bobi that amplified his subjective awareness of his body.

This made Zhu Bopi subconsciously believe that he had really been injured.

After thanking the therapist, Zhu Bobi exclaimed, "Brother Qiang's boxing skills are terrifying; they actually caused me psychological problems..."

At the same time, his fear of Zhang Chaoqiang increased, and he refused to pay any more attention to Zhang Chaoqiang's requests.

Zhang Chaoqiang was very troubled.

After the Zhu Bobi incident, no one was willing to fight him hand-to-hand anymore.

So he gritted his teeth and pleaded with everyone at the school, eventually relaxing his demands again and again, allowing the other party to use only his physical body while he could use martial arts and spiritual power.

Anyway, even if I get beaten up, I can still complete the mission and strengthen my physical body at the same time.

But even so, the response was still:

"Zhang Chaoqiang is looking for opponents everywhere. He's obviously practiced some kind of superhuman physical skill. He's going to use us as guinea pigs!"

“Last time, Zhu Bobi from their class was psychologically damaged after being beaten by him. That’s what he said.”

"Holy crap, this is even more terrifying than inflicting internal injuries. It looks like a physical attack, but it's causing mental damage?"

"I heard he even offered a bounty; you get a hundred dollars no matter who wins or loses..."

"Forget it, forget it. We don't even have enough for medical expenses. It's almost finals, let's not cause any trouble. Everyone should focus on the final exams in the distance. If someone gets injured, their exams will be ruined!"

Sitting in Lao Chen's car on the way home, Zhang Chaoqiang was extremely depressed.

Life is so hard; in just these few days, I've encountered two major problems…

None of the new physical training tasks have been completed, just like a salesperson who hasn't closed a single deal.

Secondly, the so-called screaming chicken's crystal core is still in the process of absorption, but it is nearly halfway complete.

Unlike other crystal cores, the screaming chicken inside the body doesn't seem to receive any spiritual power or physical enhancements from beginning to end.

The screaming chicken was completely useless; it brought him nothing and he hadn't gained anything yet.

The feedback from copying and learning has been so-so; there's been no clue yet about any martial arts techniques that can be derived from it...

He was somewhat annoyed.

Open the "Martial Arts Shop Encyclopedia Ranking," and you'll find numerous lists that rank items available in the official Martial Arts Shop.

The ranking system uses rarity, strength, bloodline level, and rank to rank the crystal cores available in the shop, or the monsters they represent.

Surprisingly, the Screaming Chicken, a type of monster, is among the top ten on two different lists.

Good news: Top ten on both lists

Bad news: "The Strange List" and "The Useless List"

The Screaming Chicken is a strange monster that isn't very strong, but it often makes a piercing scream, attracting a lot of attention. It ranks ninth on the "Strange List".

The forum showed that over 20 people purchased the crystal core, 19 of whom were absorbed into its user base, but zero martial arts skills were derived from it…

On the "Useless List," it ranks first...

This is why a second-tier demon beast with a rare bloodline only costs 100,000.

This is probably one of the most useless rare monsters. Just looking at the data, there is absolutely no possibility of it developing any martial arts techniques.

If Zhang Chaoqiang was instigated to buy it, then he should go to the martial arts shop to seek justice no matter what.

But no, it was because I reacted to the crystal core of this thing that I initially planned to buy it.

Let's leave it for now and wait quietly until the crystal core has finished absorbing the energy. If we really don't feel anything, it just means our time hasn't come yet.

Back home, Zhang Chaoqiang discovered that Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei still hadn't worn the crystal earrings and nails he had given them.

"Are those cheap earrings and studs from Pinduoduo really that good? Why don't Mom and Dad wear the crystal jewelry I gave you?"

Upon hearing Zhang Chaoqiang's question, the two opened the jewelry box, inside which were neatly arranged the beautiful nails and earrings that Zhang Chaoqiang had given them, each inlaid with a first-tier crystal core.

"So Mom and Dad were reluctant to wear them? Don't worry, these crystal cores are very common! We won't have to worry about crystal cores for the next two dungeons!"

"No."

Shen Qiangwei frowned: "The reason we don't wear them isn't because we're reluctant, but because they're super powerful. Do you know that these things glow at night?"

"Not to mention at night, it will glow even in dimly lit places. The other day your dad told me that when he went to a public toilet, because the lighting was dim, the crystal nails he was wearing on his face looked like a running light."

The passerby who was urinating at the urinal was so startled that they recoiled...

"Isn't this cool?" Zhang Chaoqiang retorted.

"Not handsome at all, amazing! Your sense of aesthetics still needs to be learned from your parents!"

"Dad does know a suitable place to put something that lights up on its own! But..."

"but what?"

"But this isn't enough..."

"Dad, how much do you want?"

"The more the merrier!"

Even a single crystal core of rankless quality costs thousands, but Zhang Huolong only needs one that can glow; he doesn't care about the others. Zhang Chaoqiang prepared over a hundred for Zhang Huolong, wanting to see what he was planning to do.

Down in the alley, as Zhang Huolong arranged the self-illuminating crystal cores in a row, like a running lantern, and pasted them around the front, seats, and taillights of his Ghostfire Chariot…

The chariots are colorful.

"Wow, how environmentally friendly! It doesn't consume electricity and glows for a long time. Cool!"

The chariot, shimmering with multicolored light, received thirty complaints in one night, and Zhang Huolong was finally forced to cover it with a cloth...

Achieve [Aesthetic Improvement], Growth Value +100

This time, they've truly grown up.

Han Han and his two companions, who were secretly observing all of this, sighed, "Students these days are really rich; they treat crystal cores like toys."

Then, Han Han changed the subject and looked at Han Bing: "How about it? You've gotten even more familiar with [Disguise] lately, m3. That thing hasn't appeared recently, it's about time to make a move!"

Chapter 138 Still Under Threat

Zhang Chaoqiang has rarely used spiritual power or martial arts techniques recently.

There are also institutional capabilities.

Adhering to the idea of ​​practicing wherever one is not good enough.

Without using martial arts abilities, relying solely on the physical body, starting from everyday life.
