High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student

Chen Shi had a sudden inspiration and wondered if he could buy the essence blood of a demon beast himself.

But when I checked later, I was completely dumbfounded.

The cheapest essence blood of the Glass Fairy costs over 10000.

Even the cheapest Hundred-Eyed Spider costs over 2000.

"Why is semen so expensive?"

Di Yun said calmly, "Things are valued for their rarity."

"Moreover, besides enhancing superpowers and blood energy, essence blood has other fancy uses as well."

"Are you familiar with superstition? In some places, you have to offer blood sacrifices to monsters to start a business, and the rarer the blood, the better the effect, so the price is very chaotic."

Chen Shi remained silent, thinking to himself, "Fine."

Finally, he bought five precious stones.

These are support-type upgrades from B2 and B3 respectively.

Then comes the sensory system's B1 enhancement, B2 enhancement, and B3 enhancement.

Total cost: 2580.

There are still 10,000 left.

Chen Shi naturally intended to use it to purchase an A-grade amplification orb.

"Damn, this price is so expensive."

"There are so many," Di Yun exclaimed. "Power enhancement, blood energy burst—these are the most common types that people possess, all of them are amplification systems."

"Buy it, don't hesitate."

A1强化的就要3000了，A2强化的更是高达6800，A3强化的价格更是惊人，13800。

After Chen Shi bought the A1 and A2 enhancement items, his balance was immediately empty.

Fortunately, his junior sister helped him get the medicinal liquid, otherwise he wouldn't know what he would rely on for cultivation.

However, those medicinal liquids were all at the Martial Master level, and Chen Shi was just one step away from becoming a Grandmaster.

"Master, do I really have to rely on my blood energy to fill the gap in that hole?"

"Otherwise what?" Di Yun asked.

Chen Shi laughed and said, "I was thinking, my current hole is very small, just big enough to fit a superpowered light. Would the enhancement make that light bigger?"

"Won't it crush the surrounding membrane?"

Di Yun laughed and said, "You really dare to think that way. What if it doesn't work out?"

Chen Shi said, "If it doesn't work, it's just a waste of a few hundred yuan worth of precious pearls."

Di Yun nodded silently and said, "If you have an idea, you can give it a try."

"The items will be delivered in a little while. Let's look at the others first."

"Take a look at the task list."

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow, having long been curious about the task section. He clicked on it and saw five tasks.

The first one: "Participate in the medicinal herb garden competition in Sichuan Province six months later, and receive rewards according to your ranking."

Chen Shi asked curiously, "What's this?"

Di Yun said seriously, "It's something very important, I'll tell you later."

Chen Shi continued reading.

The second task: "Practice Penetrating Force to A level, go to the Guard Bureau for testing, reward 3000 Learning Stars, limited to 360 days."

Di Yun said calmly, "That's about enough for you."

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow and looked at the third task: "Raise your melee combat skills to A level, reward 3000 learning points, limited to 360 days."

Di Yun: "I'll teach you this later, and you'll learn it very quickly."

The fourth task: "Raise your martial prowess to 250 or above, and you will be rewarded with 3000 learning points. This task is valid for 360 days."

Di Yun said seriously, "This is a bit difficult for you, we'll talk about it later."

The fifth task: "Practice traditional movement techniques to A level, reward 3000 learning points, limited to 360 days."

Di Yun smiled and said, "This is easy for you too."

"So you have three goals now: master internal strength, master fist techniques, and master body movement."

"Fortunately, you already adjusted your body proportions last year, so you don't need to worry about those anymore and can directly focus on training."

Chen Shi nodded emphatically and said, "Not playing badminton anymore?"

"What's the point of playing anymore?" Di Yun said calmly. "The talent competitions for all the junior high schools in the cities have already ended. The higher-ups have confirmed one thing: badminton will limit the strength of those top geniuses!"

"I started playing badminton in junior high school because there was so much to do there. I had to adjust my body proportions and build a solid foundation. Besides, if I got injured in a real match, I would be bedridden for a month or two, which would be a huge disadvantage."

"But that applies to ordinary people. You contestants who are going to participate in the provincial competition should not be included in the category of ordinary people."

"Therefore, the higher-ups have decided that badminton will absolutely not be played in the provincial competition."

"The exact gameplay is still uncertain, but the purpose of issuing these tasks is to prepare you for battle in advance."

"As a martial artist, movement techniques are a must; there's no need to explain that."

"Secondly, you must also be able to engage in close-quarters combat without weapons."

"Because in martial arts combat, there are often situations where martial intent is exhausted and cannot be condensed into a weapon, or the weapon is dropped from the hand. If you do not know any unarmed combat techniques at this time, you can just wait to die."

Chen Shi indicated that he understood.

Di Yun continued, "There's also martial intent. It's completely open now. Normally, only senior high school students can comprehend martial intent, but now, all academic stars and prospective academic stars can directly comprehend it."

"Since we are training you as the ultimate weapon, you must face these things earlier than ordinary people."

Chen Shi nodded silently and said, "I understand."

Di Yun: "Then I'll tell you about the most important battle: the Medicine Garden competition. If you perform well in this competition, you could win over tens of thousands of Learning Star Points in one go!"

Chen Shitong's pupils suddenly contracted, and he asked, "What kind of competition is it?"

Di Yun said seriously, "You can think of it as a game. The game involves going up the mountain to collect herbs. You can bring nothing but a carrying pole and two iron baskets. The time limit is 60 minutes. After you finish collecting herbs in each round, you return to the finish line. The game time and points will increase according to the amount of herbs collected."

"No upper limit."

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow and said, "That simple?"

Di Yun shook his head and said, "It's not simple at all. Let me tell you, it comes with a title."

"1 points, expert in herb gathering."

"3 points, Herb Gathering Immortal."

"10 points, I'm not a medicine god."

"The 'I'm Not a Medicine God' medal is an epic medal, extremely rare. Back in our student days, we really enjoyed collecting title medals."

"I hope you can get the movie 'Dying to Survive'."

Chen Shi's eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "Like a medal for the top junior high school student in Linshan City?"

"Yes, there will be many in the future." After saying that, Di Yun took out a small box from his storage ring. When he opened it, there were more than a dozen medals inside, some bronze and some silver, but unfortunately there wasn't a single gold one.

He knew them all like the back of his hand.

"That was my student days."

A radiant smile appeared on the teacher's wife's face, as if she had returned to those beautiful, youthful days.

Di Yun couldn't stop smiling and said, "Back in class, everyone would compete for medals every day. We'd fight for those achievements that were in the most obscure corners of the classroom."

Chen Shi's eyes also showed a strong sense of anticipation, as did Zhang Xuexin's. She might not get the best, but she wouldn't be left with nothing!

"Back then it was very pure," Di Yun said. "The rewards were few, and there was no Star Point System. It was all about fighting for honor and status, fighting tooth and nail. In college, our class monitor was ambushed by the class next door and almost got an epic medal. Afterwards, the two classes had an offline team building activity. It was so much fun."

"After graduating and joining the army, these became just toys. Everyone started competing for real, big honors, like the merits in a certain battle, and those medals were all gleaming gold."

"But that thing is too cruel."

Di Yun played with the medal in his hand and said, "Behind this is happiness, behind those is bloodshed."

The master's wife stepped on Di Yun's foot and glanced at him, as if to say, "Why are you telling this to a child?"

after awhile.

Chen Shi summarized his goals: First, he needed to train in combat, body movement, and internal energy cultivation; then he would compete in the medicinal garden competition six months later, preparing for the provincial competition a year later, right?

"Yes." Di Yun nodded emphatically and continued, "And this is a reward the principal gave you separately."

"Colorless Demon Flower Essence Blood, A."

He placed a bottle containing white blood on the table.

Di Yun continued, "It was my master's wife's request."

"Your next superpower—elemental transformation!"

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow, his face showing curiosity.

Di Yun said calmly, "The colorless demon flower is very special. It is naturally immune to a certain degree of damage reduction from elemental forces and can convert the remaining elements into its own energy."

"You have a top-tier physique, so you won't be afraid of traditional martial artists, but you might have a tough time against elemental martial artists. That's why your master's wife asked the principal to get this reward for you."

"You've fused this power with the blood tide!"

"From now on, once Blood Tide is activated and you enter combat, you will simultaneously activate elemental damage reduction and conversion!"

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow.

"Now consume this essence blood and see if it can fuse with the blood tide, and what happens after it fuses!"

"Hey, the takeout's here."

Di Yun looked towards the horizon and saw a drone fly in, followed by a cargo box containing seven energy orbs landing on the ground.

Chen Shi exclaimed in shock, "So fast?"

Di Yun smiled and said, "After the goods you purchase are stored in the warehouse, they go directly to the local guard bureaus through the teleportation portal. Then, the guard bureaus directly dispatch drones to distribute them. The whole process is fully automated. As long as you live in the city, you will receive them in less than half an hour."

"So high-class!" Chen Shi raised an eyebrow.

Di Yun said calmly, "This is called the Clan-wide Interconnected Space Network System. This plan was originally proposed by the National Scholar Chen Tianwen hundreds of years ago and was implemented by our Human Emperor more than two hundred years ago."

"The initial purpose was to defend the city and distribute military supplies from the central government to the cities as quickly as possible to resist the demon race."

"But the scholar Chen Tianwen did not expect how strong the old man, the Human Emperor, was. The person who created this system was also the number one in the world, making the demon race dare not act rashly."

"The old folks said it was a waste to just leave it there, so now it's become a delivery and logistics system."

Curiosity flickered in Chen Shi's eyes as he asked, "Is our Human Emperor the strongest being in this world?"

A look of pride appeared on Di Yun's face as he said, "The Human Emperor never said that."

"But those demons and monsters who disagree can try to wage war against us."
