All-out: Starting with the Awakening Special Operations Unit, search, attack, and withdrawal.

In the school clinic.

Suddenly, the noise from outside woke Chu Hong, who was lying on the hospital bed as if he were sleeping peacefully. He slowly opened his eyes.

No one will ever find out.

In that instant, the "clone Chu Hong" who was lying on the bed had been replaced by the real Chu Hong.

Outside the door, you could hear a jumble of sounds, like people pushing and shoving each other.

Wang Suming, that fat guy, was blocking the door to the school clinic.

Chu Hong stood up.

Outside.

Wu Gang, who was in the same training class as Chu Hong and Wang Suming, had a muscular physique and dark skin, resembling some of the blond-haired gym characters in NTR mobile games. At this moment, he was looking down at the fat Wang Suming in front of him with an arrogant and smug expression, arms crossed.

Behind him, a dozen or so men and women were making a fuss, enjoying the spectacle.

"Wang Suming, what are you doing? We heard that Chu Hong couldn't take the blow and wanted to commit suicide. We just wanted to come and see him out of kindness. How can you stop us?"

"Exactly! We're classmates, after all. So what if his initial skills have no rank? Anyway, our Boss Wu has awakened the Origin-level skill [Throwing Bomb], and in the future, Boss Wu will be eating his fill in the secret realm. Just a little bit left between his fingers will be enough for Chu Hong, that orphan who only has himself to feed, to live comfortably, right?"

"Haha, Boss Wu is kind and righteous, but it seems that Chu Hong is not giving me any face."

Wang Suming was so angry at his materialistic and pragmatic classmates that he turned pale and then red.

But this is the human environment of this chaotic, lawless, and catastrophic blue planet.

Although he believed that Chu Hong would not be defeated so easily.

But clearly, his trust was of no use.

Just then.

With a "whoosh," the door behind Wang Suming was opened from the inside.

Chu Hong stood calmly at the door, looking at the crowd gathered around him. He first glanced indifferently at Wu Gang and his group, then his gaze lingered on the girl beside them.

His gaze narrowed slightly.

Liu Yanyan.

That guy who humiliated his predecessor to the point of collapse, and ultimately hanged himself.

I have to say... it's big, white, and sexy!

"Hey, isn't our Chu doing great? Looks like that fat guy arrived just in time. But that tattoo on his neck is pretty unique..."

Wu Gang draped one arm over Liu Yanyan's shoulder, his dangling fingers seemingly touching her exaggerated curve right in front of Chu Hong, his face full of mockery and disdain.

Once upon a time, Chu Hong had the face of a campus heartthrob, and girls would flock to him.

Not to mention their training class, even in Huangshan Yuanneng No.1 Middle School, many people know the name Chu Hong.

This guy not only has excellent grades, but he also has a handsome face.

But things are better now.

Heaven has eyes!

Wu Gang's smugness grew even stronger.

"Chu Hong, you heard that the initial skill you awaken has no rank? That can't be right! From the time you entered school until now, for several years, your grades have consistently been in the top ten of the entire school. How could your initial skill awaken have no rank?"

"This doesn't fit the image of a top student!"

Wu Gang's tone was deliberately exaggerated.

The sensible underling behind him immediately added insult to injury: "Boss, what does awakening the initial skill have to do with grades? This kid just had too much luck with women, he used it all up, serves him right!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Looking at Wu Gang, who was laughing wildly, Chu Hong showed no anger whatsoever.

After all, it was the predecessor who died, and it was also the predecessor who became useless.

And he, the one who came later...

Chu Hong grabbed the fat man Wang Suming, who was about to rush forward in anger. His seemingly casual hand on Wang Suming's shoulder felt like an iron clamp, freezing Wang Suming's body in place.

His face, which was full of anger, turned around and showed only shock and astonishment.

Chu Hong smiled slightly.

Looking at Wu Gang, who was surrounded by the crowd.

"Squad Leader Wu is right. Sigh, we were indeed a bit unlucky. However, skill awakening isn't just about luck; it's also related to that aspect..." Chu Hong said, rubbing his back with a troubled expression.

He looked at Liu Yanyan, who was nestled in Wu Gang's arms like a little bird, with a half-smile.

"I was thinking about it during the day and dreaming about it at night, and in the end, I was completely out of sorts when I woke up. You can ask Yan Yan if you don't believe me."

Liu Yanyan frowned, but saw a mocking smile curving up the corner of Chu Hong's mouth.

"Boss Wu should have already tried it, right? Yan Yan isn't a first-hand product..."

One sentence caused both Wu Gang and Liu Yanyan in his arms to change their expressions instantly.

Chu Hong continued speaking.

"I've been with Yan Yan for two years. I've been investigating her during the day, investigating her at night, investigating her on the school rooftop, and continuing my investigation in the equipment room of the training ground..."

"I investigated her from the front, I investigated her from the back..."

"We investigated her standing up, we investigated her lying down..."

Wang Suming watched Chu Hong shaking his head and laughing as if savoring the moment, sharing these advanced topics with a smile. He felt that Chu Hong today was completely beyond his comprehension.

Before this.

Even his best friend, if he said anything bad about Liu Yanyan in front of Chu Hong, he would inevitably be scolded.

But today...

Chu Hong spoke eloquently, from investigating Liu Yanyan with his bare hands, to investigating Liu Yanyan with the idea that "humans are good at using tools," and finally to investigating Liu Yanyan in depth with the idea that "interest is the best teacher."

Wu Gang's group of followers and classmates who came to watch the commotion couldn't help but give him strange looks.

Wu Gang's already somewhat dark complexion was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

As for Liu Yanyan...

"Shut up! Chu Hong, you bastard, what nonsense are you spouting?!"

Liu Yanyan's pretty face turned bright red with anger.

Despite her striking good looks, she immediately panicked when she saw Wu Gang's angry gaze.

"Wu Gang, don't listen to his nonsense. I didn't do it. I didn't even let him touch me. He..."

Chu Hong added casually, "Boss Wu, after my investigation, I found out that Yan Yan's favorite food is cream puffs..."

"you......"

"Enough!" Wu Gang roared.

Suddenly, the entire school clinic fell into a deathly silence.

Chu Hong stood at the door with a smile on his face, arms crossed, showing no sign of panic despite Wu Gang's murderous glare.

"Hmph! You're quick-witted, but no rank is no rank. Even the pioneer team wouldn't want someone like you, let alone enter the secret realm and condense source energy."

"Either you obediently drop out of school and become a lowly, worthless ordinary person in the base city, or... do you dare to enter the secret realm alone?"

Wu Gang stepped forward, so close that he could almost kiss Chu Hong, and glared fiercely at Chu Hong.

"In another month, it will be graduation exams. Everyone will have to enter a secret realm then. If you know what's good for you and don't want to die, you'd better get lost now. But if you do go in... you'd better pray you don't run into me!"

He finished speaking.

Wu Gang immediately turned around, grabbed Liu Yanyan who was glaring resentfully at Chu Hong, and left.

Chu Hong wasn't annoyed. He watched the other person's departing figure and waved with a smile.

"Don't worry, Wu Gang. I understand boundaries. From now on, my relationship with Yan Yan is completely clean, and hers is completely innocent. I will never investigate her again..."

"Ah! Chu Hong, you bastard!" Liu Yanyan shouted angrily, but was forcibly dragged away by Wu Gang.

After giving Chu Hong a strange look, everyone left.

Wang Suming was left looking at Chu Hong with a face full of admiration, as if he were meeting him for the first time.

"Holy crap! Brother Hong, you, you were just... incredible! How could you say such cruel things to Liu Yanyan? You... you're something else!"

The fat man excitedly gave a thumbs up.

However, a knowing smile that only men would understand immediately appeared on his face, and his gaze shifted downwards.

"Brother Hong, is Liu Yanyan really that ruthless? Did she really manage to get rid of you completely?"

"roll!"

In the school clinic, Chu Hong ate the food that Wang Suming had packed for him, listening to the other man rambling on about what had happened in the training class during his time in the clinic.

"Brother Hong, Wu Gang is practically invincible in class right now. Yesterday, while you were unconscious, people from the Pioneers Guild came and tested everyone in our school who had awakened their Source Energy skills. Guess how many points that bastard Wu Gang got?"

Wang Suming, his face filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, gritted his teeth and stretched out three thick fingers.

"Third stage! A third stage of Origin Realm skill! If they enter the secret realm, how much of a lead will they have over us...?"
