High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student

Di Yun suddenly thrust his stick forward!

"You should be able to feel the flow of force now, right?"

Chen Shi nodded emphatically and said, "It's possible. I can feel the power flowing through my body, ultimately converging in my hands and striking out with the stick!"

Di Yun: "Yes, actually, the penetration is just this one move, watch carefully."

He thrust out the stick as usual, but paused for a fraction of a second just before it was fully extended. When the stick was fully extended, the sound of the wind was sharp, not deafening!

Chen Shi instantly understood the profound meaning!

"It's basically about building up power, right?"

"Pause the stick just before it's extended, concentrating all your force on the point of attack before extending it!"

"Just like water!"

"The force is like water flowing in my body, flowing into the stick with my movements. But it's a process of rising tide. When I throw it out, only the front part of the tide hits the beach. The water in the middle and back, which is the force, is actually wasted."

"What I need to do is gather all the tide and then unleash it all at once, so that the wave will travel very far!"

Di Yun chuckled, wanting to praise the genius, but he held back and said, "Since you understand, practice on your own."

"Xue'er, this is for you. You don't have to share with Chen Shiyong anymore."

Di Yun tossed a white martial arts wristband to Zhang Xuexin.

Zhang Xuexin's eyes immediately lit up: "It's white!"

"Your master's wife picked it out for you," Di Yun said with a smile.

"Thank you, Master's wife!" Zhang Xuexin quickly bowed to Chen Wan'er.

Chen Wan'er crossed her legs, sipped her tea, and said, "Your performance at school is outstanding. This is something you earned yourself. From today until this time next year, for 365 days, the school will provide you with 365 doses of martial arts-level potion."

"Every year, the school has three reserve spots for 'Star Students' and one official spot. Train hard and strive to become a Star Student next year!"

Zhang Xuexin chuckled and said, "I will certainly live up to my master's expectations!"

Since Zhang Xuexin and Chen Shi got together, the intensity of her training has increased, and her body proportions have begun to get back on track.

Chen Shi completed the adjustment of his body proportions in one year, and Zhang Xuexin should be able to do so next year as well.

The next few days.

Chen Shi took a stick to school to train, sweating profusely.

When Wang Hu and his men returned, they were all dejected and looked utterly dejected.

In the second year of junior high school, the twenty contestants, including those from the traditional group, only managed to get 1500 points for the school. At that time, Zhang Xuexin alone got 1500 points.

They were practically being abused like dogs, especially after they encountered Wolong's people, who subjected them to constant verbal abuse.

"Trash, useless, even dog shit doesn't deserve to practice martial arts."

Each word he uttered enraged Wang Hu and his men, but they were powerless to do anything about it; they simply couldn't defeat him.

The situation was similar in the third year of junior high school. Everyone came back looking dejected. Some of them did well and got 2000 points, but they were still scolded and made stupid. The captain was so angry that Lin Hai kicked a dumbbell and it flew away, shattering the glass. Even though he didn't participate in the competition, he was furious to see his team members being humiliated like that.

Chen Shi and Zhang Xuexin instantly felt awkward.

Because they were being criticized, it seems to have a direct impact on the two of us!

Unexpectedly, neither Lin Hai nor Wang Hu vented their resentment on the two of them.

Lin Hai sighed and said, "Chen Shi, the people from Wolong told us that you won't survive the second round of the Star Learning Group."

"They've even declared they'll eliminate all three of our Hengshan seeds in the first round!"

"We can't stop them, we're counting on you."

"Making it to the top 32 is a victory."

The entire second and third year of junior high school was filled with a deathly atmosphere, and some students even hid in corners and shed tears.

Ultimately, they were all still just children. This was the first time in their lives they had been so humiliated without any regard for their dignity, and they were powerless to fight back.

The most painful thing is that the younger students brought honor to the school, while the older students were the ones who lost face.

Chen Shi stood in the center of the crowd and suddenly said in a deep voice, "How many points is Hengshan Junior High School behind Wolong Junior High School?"

Lin Hai asked, "You mean the school's total score?"

Chen Shi nodded: "Yes."

"It seems like we're only 3000 points behind. In the past, we were at least 6000 points behind. This year, we managed to pull it back a bit thanks to Xuexin. They barely scored any points in the first year of junior high, so that's why."

Chen Shi: "Is Zhuge Liang number one?"

Lin Hai shook his head: "No, No. 1 Middle School is first, and Wolong is second, but after the Xuexing competition, they should be ranked first."

"Wolong has two favorites to win the championship, and the third seed is a 600+ S-level superpower. Making it into the top 32 shouldn't be a problem."

Chen Shi said calmly, "If I could meet them earlier, eliminate them earlier, and then win the championship, wouldn't I have a chance?"

"What do you mean?" Lin Hai's eyes widened.

Chen Shi said in a deep voice, "The chance to become the number one in Hengshan!"

"Brother, calm down."

Chen Shi nodded: "I'm very calm."

Lin Hai shook his head and said, "Let's not even talk about the Heart of Light. How are you going to fight that S+ Ironblood with over 600 HP?"

Faced with the doubts, Chen Shi wanted to argue, but he saw Xue'er shaking her head.

He ultimately left only one sentence: "I will definitely win, and I will definitely find a way to bring Hengshan to first place!"

After leaving those words, Chen Shi continued practicing his staff skills on his own, practicing day and night without distinguishing between them. The only thing he remembered was drinking the medicinal liquid.

His perception of force became increasingly acute; six out of ten strikes with the stick could deliver penetrating force with a piercing sound, but he felt this was still not enough.

There's no time left.

It was the night before the official match. Nearly two weeks had passed since Chen Shi obtained the Blood Tide, and he was in excellent form.

He and Xuexin sat on the sofa in front of the photo wall. The girl leaned against one side of the sofa, her straight and slender legs could span two sofa blocks, which was very pleasing to the eye. And because it was summer, she was wearing almost only shorts.

At that moment, the girl noticed that the boy's eyes looked somewhat confused.

"It seems like nobody believes I can win."

"Do you think I can win?" Chen Shi frowned.

Zhang Xuexin asked in surprise, "Chen Shi, why have you suddenly become so depressed?"

"This isn't like you."

Chen Shi shook his head and said, "I don't know. It's like everyone is doubting me. Even my master said to just do my best, but he didn't say I was 100% sure I would win."

"Especially when I think about what would happen if we lost, and the faces of those Wolong guys came out, damn it... I'd break down, I'm serious."

Zhang Xuexin frowned and asked, "Are you scared?"

"Because I really don't seem to be strong enough." Chen Shi said, looking down. "I told you, I wasn't actually qualified to join the martial arts team at first because my superpowers weren't showing."

"Back then, I didn't understand the importance of superpowers at all."

"It wasn't until today, after watching so many matches, that I truly understood what an S-class superpower could possibly bring."

"500 HP can be used as if you had 1000 HP!"

"Right now, my superpowers are seven or eight levels weaker than that person's, and my blood energy is less than 200 points higher than his elemental value."

"Theoretically speaking, I'm not necessarily sure I can win."

Instead of offering comfort, Zhang Xuexin suddenly retorted, "Then what are you working so hard for?"

"I..." Chen Shi was taken aback.

"To lose?" The girl's bright eyes flickered slightly.

Chen Shi: "But I'm only in the first year of junior high."

The girl immediately pressed on, "But you want to be General Chen."

"I don't think the general would be indulging in fantasies of defeat before the battle even begins."

Chen Shi took a deep breath and said, "You're right."

The girl suddenly lowered her head and said, "Actually, I'm scared too."

"I'm always involuntarily afraid."

"What are you afraid of?" Chen Shi frowned.

The girl paused for a moment, then mustered her courage and said, "I'm afraid you'll despise me and leave me!"

Chen Shi quickly replied, "Of course not!"

The girl replied without hesitation, "Who knows?"

"My parents looked so loving in their wedding photos, but now they're arguing like enemies."

Chen Shih-hu's body trembled.

The girl choked up for a moment and said, "I'm not telling you this to talk about the things in my house."

"I just want to tell you that even a little girl like me can suppress my fear and only smile at you, instead of asking you if you will leave me."

"I think General Chen shouldn't keep asking himself, 'Will I lose?'"

In short, it hardened Chen Shidao's heart!

He clenched his fists and said, "Yes!"

"I shouldn't be afraid!"

He turned his head to look at Xue'er.

The girl wiped away a few tears from the corner of her eyes. She didn't know why, but she always couldn't help but cry when talking about her parents.

Facing the boy's gaze, the girl smiled gently, then suddenly stood up and walked to the photo wall.

"Chen Shi, I've already decided what our eighth photo should be!"

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"

The girl exclaimed excitedly, "After the referee declared you the winner, countless ceremonial robes jingled!"

"Then you stand amidst a sky full of fireworks, arms outstretched, or striking some other cool pose, surrounded by thunderous applause!"

"I stood right in front of you with my camera, found the perfect angle, and managed to capture both you and the large screen above your head."

"You are bathed in fireworks."

"You're surrounded by your defeated opponents, above your head is a giant poster with your handsome photo, next to it are your astonishing personal stats, and above your head is that title that only you in the whole world possesses—the number one junior high school student in Linshan City!"

"I'll press the shutter at that moment, and hang that photo on our wall tomorrow night!"

"This time tomorrow, there will be another photograph like that here!"

"Definitely!"

As Chen Shi listened to the girl's description, the melancholy in his eyes faded by three points, gradually replaced by a hint of expectation, and finally turned into determination and confidence!

"Yes, it definitely will!"

"Thank you, Xuexin!"

Zhang Xuexin stepped forward and opened her arms.

Chen Shi quickly stepped forward and hugged her, and all the bitterness in his heart disappeared instantly, as if his heart was being gently enveloped.

The girl leaned on his shoulder, blushing, and said, "Actually, I don't like you calling me Xuexin."

"Hmm? Her name is Xue'er?"

"No, I don't want that either!"

"I want you to call me junior sister!"

Chen Shi was taken aback: "Why?"

"Go ahead and shout!"

"Alright, junior sister!"

After Chen Shi finished speaking, he inexplicably felt like laughing.

The girl blinked and said sweetly, "Senior brother~"

Those two words made Chen Shi's smile completely crumble.

This nickname seems to have a certain magic; it sounds better than "Xue'er".

And most importantly.

Chen Shimeng realized that in this world, he only had one junior sister, and his junior sister only had one senior brother!

This is a unique title!

good good!

After lingering tenderly for a while, the girl stood reluctantly at the door and said, "Then, senior brother, I'll go home first. I'll come back tomorrow for a celebration banquet!"

Chen Shi sighed and said, "I'll take you."

Both boys and girls hate parting.

But the girl said, "After we graduate from high school, we won't have to be apart anymore."

So Chen Shicai wanted to grow up quickly, for time to slip away quickly, and for him to wake up one day to be eighteen years old, with 100,000 more Star Points in his bank account and 10,000 more Blood Qi.

This is best.
