SWDnovel Chapter 1 Chen Lie
Chapter 1 Chen Lie
In the year 7364 of the Galactic Calendar, on Blue Star, in Dongchuan Province, Changdong City.
Inside the training ground of a provincial key high school, more than fifty teenage boys and girls surrounded a robust man in his early forties.
"Classmates, the Void-Breaking Fist I'm demonstrating is only a D-level martial art, but its power is not much less than that of a typical C-level martial art."
After completing your training, your Qi and blood will improve at least 1.5 times faster than they are now. I hope you will practice diligently after you go down to the training grounds. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me privately.
After demonstrating a powerful set of punches, the man in the middle put down his fists and looked around at the students. Seeing that they were all listening attentively, he nodded in satisfaction.
Suddenly, he saw a person standing motionless, seemingly lost in thought. He immediately frowned and shouted, "Chen Lie!"
"The school only offers one martial arts instruction class per week, and all the students listen attentively, afraid of missing a single moment. But you, on the other hand, are actually daydreaming and spacing out during class."
Have you broken through the 1 mark in Qi and Blood? There are only two hundred days left until the college entrance examination. With your current Qi and Blood value, if you don't work hard, you might not even be able to get into the worst martial arts university in the province.
If you don't get into a martial arts university, you'll end up at the very bottom of society as soon as you graduate. How can you face your parents who scrimped and saved and spent so much money to send you to a martial arts program?
Chen Lie, who had been in a daze, suddenly snapped out of it. He looked closely and was immediately shocked: "Zhao Feng?"
"Wasn't I organizing books in the library of the Tai'a Star Martial Arts Academy? How did I suddenly end up here? Also, Blue Star was destroyed in a beast tide fifty years ago. Logically, Zhao Feng should have been dead for fifty years. Even if he were still alive, he couldn't possibly be this young!"
"Could it be... that I've been reborn?"
Chen Lie's face was filled with disbelief.
In his previous life, he was an ordinary high school martial arts student in Changdong City, Dongchuan Province, one of the eighty-nine provinces of Blue Star.
His family was considered well-off on Earth, with his parents in their prime and a younger sister who was three years younger than him but had exceptional martial arts talent.
When he was twenty-three, his family suffered a devastating tragedy, and his parents and sister all perished in the disaster.
He himself was hunted down by powerful enemies, like a rat in a sewer, hiding for more than ten years. Finally, he had no choice but to leave Earth and his homeland. He struggled for more than fifty years in the starry sky in order to survive.
Benefiting from the martial arts environment in interstellar space far superior to that on Earth, and with Chen Lie himself putting in a thousand times more effort than ordinary people, his martial arts cultivation eventually reached the ninth-level Grandmaster realm.
A ninth-tier Grandmaster is naturally among the top experts on Blue Star, but in Tai'a Star Province, where martial arts civilization is highly developed, they can only be considered at the bottom.
Chen Lie thought he would only live out the rest of his life in Tai'a Xing Province in mediocrity, but when he opened his eyes, he found himself back in his childhood, a time that haunted his dreams.
Seeing that Chen Lie remained silent, Zhao Feng assumed that his reprimand had worked, so he shook his head and said, "Considering that you usually practice diligently, I'll let it go this time."
If you dare to daydream during a martial arts instruction class again, call your parents in immediately.
I hope all students will take this as a warning. get out of class dismissed!
After Zhao Feng finished speaking, he left the training ground.
The students around him glanced at Chen Lie, then dispersed.
At this moment, a student with curly hair walked towards Chen Lie.
"Chen Lie, what's wrong with you? You've been waiting for this 'Breaking Through the Void Fist' instruction class for three or four days already, how come you're still daydreaming during class?"
"Wang Hui?"
When Chen Lie saw the curly-haired boy in front of him, memories of his past life immediately surfaced.
Wang Hui, his childhood friend, the two have been friends for more than ten years.
In his previous life, when Chen Lie was being hunted down to the point of having nowhere to go and even struggling to get food, it was Wang Hui who secretly helped him out a few times.
Despite the intense manhunt by a powerful enemy, Wang Hui was able to repeatedly rescue people, even at the risk of losing his family.
Chen Lie glanced at Wang Hui, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing, I just remembered something."
"Thinking about Lu Qingchan? She's a top student in the elite class, not someone like us martial arts students in the regular classes."
Lu Qingchan? That name sounds familiar.
Chen Lie shook his head, casting aside the myriad thoughts swirling in his mind.
"Let's go eat!"
Seeing that Chen Lie didn't speak, Wang Hui thought he had guessed what Chen Lie was thinking, so he stopped asking and put his arm around Chen Lie's neck and went to the school cafeteria.
After having a quick meal at the restaurant, Chen Lie and Wang Hui returned to the classroom.
Chen Lie spent the entire morning familiarizing himself with the school environment, since it had been decades since he last attended classes here.
The afternoon was for theory classes. As soon as the bell rang, Ren Hongguang, the instructor of the martial arts class, walked into the classroom and began his lecture.
"The path of martial arts lies in perseverance, in never giving up and never being defeated. Although talent is important, hard work is even more important..."
After a long and tedious speech, Instructor Ren Hongguang straightened his expression and said, "Last year, the college entrance examination admission score for ordinary martial arts universities was 5.3 Qi and Blood points, and the admission score for key universities was 11.5 Qi and Blood points. This year, it is very likely that it will be raised by 0.1 again."
However, only three students in our class have a Qi and Blood value exceeding 1. With the college entrance exam so close, I honestly can't imagine how bad this year's college admission rate will be. You are truly the worst class I've ever taught!
As he spoke, Ren Hongguang slammed his hand heavily on the table in front of him.
"I know it's difficult to break through the Qi and Blood value to 1, because before your own Qi and Blood value reaches 1, you can't use supplements or medicines to increase your Qi and Blood value. You can only rely on your own desperate training. But what I want to say is that as long as you are willing to put in twelve times the effort, you will definitely reap twelve times the reward, because your teacher has also been through this stage."
After Ren Hongguang finished speaking, he looked around at the students in the classroom and finally fixed his gaze on a boy in the front row, asking, "Fang Hang, in last month's blood and qi test, your blood and qi value exceeded 1 calorie. Have you tested your blood and qi at home these past few days? What is your blood and qi value now?"
The student named Fang Hang immediately stood up and replied, "I took a test two days ago, and my Qi and Blood value has now exceeded 1.93 calories."
After he finished speaking, he glanced back at the other students, his face full of smugness.
Upon hearing Fang Hang's answer, the students in the classroom were immediately shocked.
"My god, Fang Hang's Qi and Blood value just broke 1 last month, and now it's already 1.93! In less than a month, his Qi and Blood value has increased by 0.9! That's too fast!"
"It's normal. Once your Qi and blood level reaches 1 calorie, your bodily functions will improve, and you can then take a basic bottle of 'Qi and Blood Essence.' One bottle of 'Qi and Blood Essence' can increase your Qi and blood level by about 0.4 to 0.6 calories."
"Fang Hang's family is so wealthy, they must have prepared this 'Blood Qi Essence' long ago, plus all sorts of expensive tonics. It's not surprising that he can increase his blood qi by 0.9 calories a month."
"If that's the case, Fang Hang's Qi and Blood will soon break through level 3, allowing him to enter the elite class?"
"It's not that easy. Although you can use external supplements and medicines to improve your Qi and blood after your Qi and blood value exceeds 1, these supplements can only be used regularly and in fixed quantities. If you abuse them, they will cause your body to be unable to absorb and digest them, thus damaging your body."
Moreover, Fang Hang's qi and blood have increased so much all of a sudden; he must have taken a lot of supplements, which require a period of training to digest and absorb.
"Sigh, why can't I use 'Blood Essence' if my Qi and Blood value is below 1? If I could use 'Blood Essence' even if my Qi and Blood value is 0.9, I'll ask my dad to buy me a bottle too."
"If your Qi and Blood value is less than 1, your body's functions will not be able to absorb the medicinal power of the 'Qi and Blood Essence.' It's a small matter if it's wasted, but if it causes hidden dangers to your body, it will be ten times more difficult for you to break through to the Martial Arts realm than for ordinary people in the future."
…………
Ignoring the students' chatter in the classroom, Ren Hongguang waved to Fang Hang and said, "Not bad. With your increased training during this period, your Qi and Blood stats are on track for a top university. Sit down!"
