The next morning, Shen Qingqiu drove Jiang Lan to the entrance of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy.

Call me after school, and I'll come pick you up.

"Okay, Auntie."

Jiang Lan got out of the car and walked towards the school gate.

Unlike the advanced class, other students attend classes normally from Monday to Friday.

Today is Wednesday, and on campus, many students are gathered in small groups.

Jiang Lan walked all the way to the teaching building and took the elevator to the fifth floor.

I pushed open the door and entered; everyone else was already there.

Chu Yun was the first to see Jiang Lan, and immediately grinned and said:

"Hey bro, don't run away today, I promised to treat you after school."

Jiang Lan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it can't escape."

"That's a deal!" Chu Yun rubbed his hands together, looking expectant. "I've been starving for two days, just waiting for this meal."

Lu Qingshan, standing beside him, adjusted his glasses and said calmly:

When are you not hungry?

"Get lost, what does a nerd know?"

Jiang Lan walked to her seat and sat down, glancing at the few people in the classroom.

It's the same as always.

Noticing Jiang Lan's gaze, Mo Han turned her head and nodded slightly to him.

Although he still had a deadpan expression, at least there was no hostility on his face anymore.

Jiang Lan nodded to him.

Not long after, the classroom door was pushed open again.

Xiao Feng, with short hair, walked into the classroom.

Upon seeing Xiao Feng, everyone greeted him in unison:

"Hello, Teacher Xiao."

Xiao Feng nodded, his gaze sweeping around before finally settling on Jiang Lan.

"Jiang Lan, did you go to the library to choose a set of martial arts techniques last time?"

Jiang Lan felt awkward.

He's been so focused on leveling up and hunting ferocious beasts these past few days that he's completely forgotten about martial arts.

"Not yet, I'll go after class."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng nodded slightly and said:

"Your most urgent task right now is to learn a martial art. The martial art itself is secondary; the main thing is to help you master your body, coordinate and control it. Relying solely on brute force will not last long."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan recalled the battle with the Ironback Wolf King yesterday.

It was indeed brute force.

He won purely because he was thick-skinned and exhausted his opponent's stamina.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to kill the Ironback Wolf King.

If one mastered proper power generation techniques, perhaps one wouldn't be in such a sorry state.

"I understand, teacher."

Xiao Feng gave him a look that said, "This kid is teachable."

"Alright, let's start class. Today's lesson is basic physical training. Do it with me."

Everyone stood up.

Then, Xiao Feng gestured for a while, and the others followed suit.

Although these movements looked easy, Jiang Lan felt awkward when she actually did them.

Although he surpasses others in speed and strength, he is far less agile in this aspect.

He could clearly feel that he was losing his strength.

It's like having a lot of strength but nowhere to use it.

The three-hour class went by quickly; before Jiang Lan even realized what had happened, it was over.

When the time came, Xiao Feng didn't stay. He just glanced at Jiang Lan and said:

"Don't forget to go to the library."

"Don't worry, teacher."

After Xiao Feng left, Chu Yun immediately jumped over.

"Let's go, let's go eat first, I'm starving."

Jiang Lan glanced at Chu Yun, then at the others.

"Is everyone going?"

Bai Yu stood up, tidied his hair, and said calmly, "Go."

Liu Shiyu nodded in agreement, smiling as she said, "Yes, I'll go too."

"If someone's treating, I'll definitely go." Lu Qingshan closed the book in his hand and stood up.

Mo Han was silent for a moment, then finally stood up.

The six of them left the teaching building together and, led by Chu Yun, arrived at a snack street outside the west gate of the college.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, mostly restaurants, and many of them serve fast food.

They cater to students, so the prices aren't expensive, but the variety is extensive.

Chu Yun, with practiced ease, led everyone directly into a barbecue restaurant.

"I'm a regular at these places, you can't go wrong eating with me!"

Upon entering the store, the group sat down around a large table.

Chu Yun didn't stand on ceremony and picked up the menu directly.

"Give me ten large kidneys, two plates of grilled leeks, two dozen oysters, ten each of guns and cannons, two dozen beers, and I'll keep an eye out for the rest."

Lu Qingshan adjusted his glasses.

"I envy my sister-in-law."

Jiang Lan: "..."

Aren't you afraid of bleeding from all that nourishment?

While inwardly complaining, Jiang Lan glanced at the prices on the menu next to her and breathed a sigh of relief.

It's alright, not expensive at all.

Even if Chu Yun can eat a lot, he'll still lose 100 credits.

A moment later, the food and wine were served.

Chu Yun eagerly grabbed a large kidney, making Jiang Lan frown.

How incredibly provocative!

Chu Yun flicked open a bottle of beer with his finger, took a big gulp, and sighed deeply.

"That was fucking awesome!"

Jiang Lan picked up a piece of beef and took a bite.

Well, you know what.

He acknowledged this identity as a seasoned food connoisseur.

After taking a few bites, Chu Yun suddenly asked curiously:

"Jiang Lan, you really have never practiced martial arts before?"

Jiang Lan shook her head.

"No, before I awakened, I was just an ordinary person."

"Awesome." Chu Yun said while munching on a skewer, "An ordinary person awakens in just over a week and completely crushes those of us who have been training for years. Isn't that infuriating?"

"Talent is something that can't be compared," Lu Qingshan said, pushing up his glasses. "Special talents don't play by the rules."

Bai Yu didn't say much, just quietly ate the roasted vegetables in front of him, occasionally glancing up at the people chatting.

Jiang Lan noticed that Bai Yu's plate was almost entirely vegetables, with a few pieces of beef occasionally, and no staple food at all.

Being a mature, sophisticated woman is destined to be painful.

Maintaining her figure probably won't be easy.

Liu Shiyu, holding a glass of beverage, sipped it slowly, watching Chu Yun wolf down his drink, and couldn't help but laugh:

"Chu Yun, eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

"You don't understand, this stuff is best enjoyed by eating it in big bites."

Halfway through the meal, Chu Yun suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously:

"Have you heard? It seems the academy is organizing a field combat assessment next month."

"Field combat assessment?" Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, it seems to be a field battle in the wilderness. I don't know the specifics, I heard it from the upperclassmen." Chu Yun wiped his mouth and said, "It is said that those who perform well in the assessment can get extra resource rewards."

Additional resource rewards.

Jiang Lan's eyes lit up.

If it's essence and blood, that would be wonderful.

What he lacks most right now is essence blood; the more he can get, the faster he can level up.

"When did this happen?"

"I'm not sure, maybe mid-next month," Chu Yun said. "Teacher Xiao should let us know then."

Jiang Lan nodded, secretly noting the matter down in her mind.

A short while later, the meal was enjoyed by both host and guests.

The price was a bit higher than he expected, but it was only 130 credits.

It's just a little water.
