High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student

During lunch break.

Inside the martial arts school.

Several eighth-grade students greeted Chen Shi: "Come on in."

There seems to be no need for formalities or small talk between the boys; if one comes, I'll leave.

Chen Shi went up.

Wang Hu, the team leader of the second grade, asked with a smile, "Let me see your physical fitness test results."

Chen Shi handed over the document sheet in his hand, which was soaked with sweat and wrinkled, but everyone was looking at it with great interest.

"One hour, 14 kilometers? Am I seeing things?"

"You weigh 42 pounds and bench press over 90? Are you a human or a wild animal? With some training, you'll probably be able to go over 200!"

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Can strength increase this quickly?"

The talkative Wang Hu quickly replied, "It's guaranteed to be fast, and there's a beginner's bonus period. You haven't even practiced yet. After you finish the beginner's bonus period, it's normal for your strength and explosive power to double."

"Their coordination is also strong, even better than ours back then."

"Damn, it seems like nobody's taller than you. I'm talking about the whole school. Right now, in the martial arts gym, from junior high to senior high, nobody gets a better score on their first physical fitness test than you."

"Awesome, a monster is about to emerge from Hengshan."

Chen Shi squatted to the side, chuckling.

Then Wang Hu suddenly asked, "What's your superpower? Would you mind telling me?"

"Superpowers..." Chen Shi's heart skipped a beat.

"Look at me." Wang Hu raised his right arm, and suddenly, his right arm became engorged with blood, and his entire arm began to grow thicker and stronger. Then, he used one finger to hook the 250KG barbell!

Chen Shi's eyes suddenly widened!

One finger, 250 kilograms?

next second!

The barbell falls!

"Boom!"

The whole room shook.

Chen Shi shuddered: "Brother, you're the monster!"

Wang Hu shook his head and said, "My strength enhancement is A2, so this strength is normal. Unfortunately, my blood energy is too low right now, so I can only maintain this ability for 30 seconds before it withers away."

"So what's your superpower?"

Chen Shi knew that saying he didn't have superpowers would definitely cause trouble.

He condensed a black light in his right hand.

Everyone crowded around, looking on with curiosity.

"What kind of ability is this? It's a bit like martial intent."

"No way, where is the black martial intent?"

"What's the use of this?"

Chen Shi said smugly, "Try throwing a punch at me."

Upon hearing this, a student curiously punched the black dot of light, then raised an eyebrow and said, "It's so hard, like punching a diamond."

"Give it a try."

Everyone rushed forward to see Chen Shi's superpowers. Yu Ding and Zhang Xuexin were also attracted by the commotion and came over.

Physical test data and superpowers are two things that people are always curious about when it comes to newborns.

But Chen Shi didn't expect that everyone's talents and abilities were similar, either strength enhancement or blood energy burst. Only Zhang Xuexin was special, with exoskeleton power, which was a bit scary, as she could extend her bones out of her body.

Chen Shi asked curiously, "Why are everyone's abilities about the same?"

"I've heard before that everyone's abilities are unique."

Wang Hu said calmly, "You're young and don't understand. Do you even know about the Super Soldier Project?"

"What is it?"

Everyone crowded around out of curiosity.

Wang Hu said leisurely, "It was a plan from several hundred years ago."

"My grandfather told me that."

"Simply put, abilities can be inherited, allowing those with superpower genes to reproduce rapidly."

"However, it's not a normal birth inside the womb; it's a birthing chamber."

"The woman provides that, and the man provides that."

"You understand?"

"Anyway, that's how we'll have them, one by one, and they'll be matched."

"More than 10,000 superpowered individuals are produced each year."

"The entire project lasted for 100 years before it was stopped."

"Why would they do this? This is terrifying! Is it really like an animal laying eggs?" Zhang Xuexin found it hard to accept.

Wang Hu said earnestly, "My grandfather said that at that time, the demon race and the monster race had joined forces to prepare for a general attack on the human race."

"A major battle is imminent."

"A peerless strategist of the human race foresaw this event fifty years in advance and proposed many solutions, one of which was the Super Soldier Project."

"People hit you because you're weak. If you were strong enough, they wouldn't dare to hit you."

"As soon as the demon race and the monster race saw that hundreds of thousands or even millions of super soldiers suddenly appeared on the human side, they immediately withdrew their troops."

"Then something amazing happened!"

Everyone listened intently.

Wang Hu said in a deep voice, "After stabilizing the situation, that patriot immediately wanted to halt the Super Soldier Project because he knew it was too inhumane. He believed that without humanity, would humanity still be considered human? What difference would there be between them and the demon race?!"

"But once many people tasted the benefits, they didn't want to stop, and he couldn't stop them!"

"Even threatening suicide was useless; instead, he was thrust into the limelight as he lay dying, accused of being the instigator of everything!"

"Everyone says it was his idea that led to his death, leaving him to take the blame for everything!"

His last words were, "Humanity is not worth saving, and I am not worth being forgiven!"

Many children were moved when this was mentioned.

Looking at the teenagers with their complex emotions, Wang Hu asked, "Do you know why this plan ended later?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"A war has broken out," Wang Hu said seriously. "The human race has engaged in a devastating civil war over the right to reproduce!"

"The two sides fought fiercely, completely losing their minds."

"Only then did everyone understand the foresight of that patriot. Losing humanity ultimately turns one into something akin to the demon race—bloodthirsty, brutal, and capable of anything for power, even turning against one's own kind!"

"A civil war nearly wiped out all the national strength brought about by the super project, plunging humanity into an unprecedented state of weakness!"

"That was the weakest period for humanity in nearly a thousand years, and the demon and monster races immediately launched an attack to take advantage of the situation!"

"They came with overwhelming force, even intending to carry out a genocide against humanity in one fell swoop!"

"Slaughter all humanity, leave no one alive!"

"In the first 10 years, 3000 million square kilometers of human territory were directly seized!"

"Next comes modern history!"

"You all know what happened next, right?"

Everyone nodded in agreement, their eyes shining with admiration!

"A man named Li Yuzhi rose up in rebellion and, within ten years, used his wisdom and strength to conquer all the restless forces of the human race, reunifying the land. He then led his troops to contend with the demon race and monster race, turning their blitzkrieg into a protracted war that dragged on for more than 40 years. The two races realized that their national strength had been depleted too much, and finally stopped their invasion of humanity."

"Unexpectedly, Li Yuzhi did not stop his actions. Taking advantage of the enemy's retreat, he launched a decisive attack and recaptured three pieces of land: Beizhou, the Arctic Ocean, and the Hengtian Mountains, regaining 2500 million square kilometers of territory!"

"The demon race and the monster race were terrified; they never expected such a reversal in the end."

"Never before has humanity been so weak, nor has humanity's land been so divided."

"Li Yu, like the sun destined by heaven, led such a battered and broken army to achieve the most dazzling feats in human history!"

"289 years ago, ten years after the end of the war of the century, the human race's vitality was greatly restored under Li Yu's command."

"Under the revered gaze of 62 billion people, he was bestowed with the most exalted title in human history—the Human Emperor."

"At the ceremony for bestowing the title of Emperor, he erected a statue under the gaze of all mankind, but it was not his, but that of another person, named Chen Tianwen, and the Emperor bestowed upon Chen Tianwen the posthumous title of 'Peerless National Hero'."

"He was the strategist who wrote the Super Soldier Project. He had been dead for over 100 years, and people only felt disgust and contempt when they talked about his name, because everyone attributed the cause of the human civil war to his inhumane plan."

"Until that day, Li Yuzhi exonerated him and refuted him in front of his statue."

"Humanity deserves to be saved! And you will surely be forgiven!"

"From then on, Li Yu's governing policy always followed Chen Tianwen's philosophy: never make a plan that abandons humanity unless the race is facing a life-or-death crisis."

"Humanity is paramount. Humanity distinguishes humans from monsters and demons, and it is the fundamental reason why humanity has been able to develop to where it is today!"

"Otherwise, humans would merely be a branch of the demon race, and would be classified as upright apes!"

"After all, in this world, demonic beasts possess the same intelligence and thinking ability as humans; the only difference lies in their humanity versus their animalistic nature!"
