18: Chapter 18 One Punch! Shocks the Entire School!

Soon, each class was led to their designated area.

Class 1 faced a Black-haired Fang Dog, Class 2 faced a Bone-spiked Grey Wolf, while Class 3 faced a Split-claw Beast that was lean but moved extremely fast.

The class Lu Cheng was in faced an Iron-backed Boar.

That thing had thick, sturdy limbs, its back looked like it was covered in iron armor, and its snorting breath carried a foul, hot stench.

Chains were wrapped around its limbs and neck, restricting its range of movement to a certain area, but even so, every time it struggled, the chains clattered, sending shivers down people's spines.

"Ready!"

Following the order.

The students of every class tensed up.

The next second, the soldiers loosened some of the restraints.

"Start!"

Roar!

The Iron-backed Boar instantly lunged, charging fiercely toward the students at the very front!

"Holy crap!!"

"Hold the line!!"

"Where are the shields! Get the shields up!"

The scene descended into chaos immediately.

The two students with shields in the front row were knocked back repeatedly, their arms going numb.

Several classmates nearby seized the opportunity to attack from the side, but the sticks and blades struck the vicious beast with little effect.

Lu Cheng did not rush in.

He stood to the side and rear, his eyes locked onto the Iron-backed Boar.

That familiar sensation in his heart quietly emerged.

[Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Bad Luck].

The next moment, the beast's lunging trajectory, the direction of its head swings, and the rhythm of its front hooves pushing off became incredibly clear to him.

Danger on the left.

Step back half a pace to avoid.

The next head swing will be followed by a charge to the right.

The attack blind spot is on the rear flank.

Lu Cheng's eyes narrowed, and he moved in an instant.

Swish!

He shifted his feet, using Wandering Step to narrowly dodge past the boar's tusks, and in the next second, he had already cut into its flank.

Bang!

He punched it in the ribs.

The boar felt the pain, let out a roar, and whipped its tail around violently.

Lu Cheng had already stepped back a moment earlier.

He dodged it again.

He didn't want to use the Origin-level Three Styles of Crushing Fist.

First, although he didn't know if people would notice, he had only awakened three days ago; using such a technique was too shocking.

Second, this restrained first-tier vicious beast didn't require the Origin Crushing Fist, as using that thing once would drain all his Qi and blood.

Ma Dachun, seeing Lu Cheng rush under the boar, wasn't about to fall behind; he grabbed a long staff and specifically struck at the boar's head and leg joints.

"Get down on your knees for me!"

Bang!

With one strike of the staff, the boar's front leg buckled.

In this world, there really weren't many cowardly students; they might have been scared at first, but once the fighting started, none of them held back!

The classmates nearby also seized the chance to rush in and deal more damage.

Although the class's coordination wasn't perfect, they were actually slowly suppressing the vicious beast.

On the other side, Su Wan's performance was equally brilliant.

She didn't choose a heavy weapon, but instead took a short blade.

Her movements were light and her strikes ruthless; almost every attack seemed pre-calculated, specifically targeting the beast's most vulnerable spots.

After all, she was a reincarnator, so dealing with a mere vicious beast should be easy... but similarly, she didn't want to reveal too many of her trump cards.

She still had to trip up the Zhou Family tonight, so there was no need to stand out if she could minimize suspicion.

The progress of her class was even faster than Lu Cheng's side.

Looking further away, Zhou Lize's performance was also quite outstanding.

Although he had been worked hard yesterday, he had a solid foundation, and not wanting to lose face in front of everyone, he gritted his teeth and charged to the front, fighting quite impressively.

Class 5 was also fighting well, with several students with strength-type talents holding the front line, actually forcing the beast to retreat.

The other classes were slightly worse; there was a significant gap in the quality of students at No. 3 High School, and if it weren't for Lu Cheng, Class 7 would likely be having a hard time.

As for Lu Cheng's side, after several consecutive precise dodges and heavy strikes, the Iron-backed Boar finally showed obvious signs of fatigue.

Its breathing became heavier, and its movements slowed down.

The opportunity had arrived.

Lu Cheng's eyes turned cold, he pushed off hard with his feet, and his whole body, like a steel spring that had been tightened and suddenly released, instantly closed the distance!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three punches almost formed a single line, all slamming into the same spot!

The Iron-backed Boar's body shuddered violently, blood sprayed from its mouth and nose, and its massive body was forced to flip sideways!

Before it could struggle to get up, Lu Cheng followed with one step, and his final punch came down from above, smashing hard!

Boom!

The moment the fist landed, flesh and blood exploded.

The students of Class 7 were shocked; they knew Lu Cheng was strong, but they didn't expect him to be this powerful?!

Barehanded, killing a first-tier vicious beast.

Is this guy even human anymore?!

Instructor Qin Feng stood in the distance, a flash of surprise appearing in his eyes. This kid's Three Styles of Crushing Fist was at least at the level of mastery...

This guy... he only awakened two days ago! If this is called trash, then those S-rank geniuses wouldn't be able to hold their heads up.

Don't ask why he couldn't tell if it was at the perfection level; the answer is that even Instructor Qin Feng hadn't reached that level with this move.

Lu Cheng shook the blood off his fist, his chest heaving slightly.

If he had to face this boar alone, if it really came to a fight... it definitely wouldn't be this easy...

But just at this moment!

A sudden, icy warning exploded from deep within his heart!

Lu Cheng's expression changed drastically.

[Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Bad Luck] was warning him frantically!

It wasn't on his side.

It was... in the direction of Class 3!

He turned his head to look almost instantly.

Over at Class 3, a Split-claw Beast was surrounded in the center, with five or six students standing very close, clearly preparing to step forward and deliver the finishing blow while it was suppressed.

On the surface, it looked fine.

But the sense of danger in Lu Cheng's heart was rising rapidly!

Getting heavier!

Getting closer!

Under everyone's eyes, the only thing that could go wrong was... that vicious beast!

"Get out of the way!!"

Lu Cheng was already using Wandering Step! He practically roared it out!

The next second!

Clatter!!!

The chain around the Split-claw Beast's neck snapped suddenly!

Its scarlet eyes widened instantly, and the whole beast lunged toward the students in front of it like it had gone mad!

"Ah!"

"Help!!"

"Retreat quickly!!"

The students of Class 3 were terrified on the spot.

The girl closest to it even felt her legs go weak and collapsed onto the ground.

The soldier nearby turned pale, rushed out immediately, and slashed off the Split-claw Beast's leg, but the latter didn't stop!

Relying on the strength of its front claws, it lunged forward! It opened its bloody maw, raised its other sharp claw high, and smashed down fiercely toward the people in front!

At this very moment.

A figure charged over from the side!

It was Lu Cheng!

He didn't hesitate at all; after breaking away from the team, he burst forth at full speed, and his Wandering Step broke through to the Mastery level in that instant! Driven to the limit, he cut between the Split-claw Beast and the students at the most dangerous moment!

The warning in his heart reached its peak at this moment!

No holding back!

Lu Cheng's eyes turned completely cold.

The Qi and blood in his body surged!

Collapsing Fist - Three Styles: Origin!

This punch stacked the force of three punches, all exploding within a single strike!

The muscles in his right arm tightened instantly, Qi and blood poured into his fist like a torrent, his skin, Tendon & Bone Stage, and flesh all exerted force simultaneously; his entire arm seemed to transform into an exploding heavy hammer!

Boom!!!

The moment his fist collided with the Split-claw Beast's head, the air seemed to vibrate.

Immediately after...

Bang!!!

The Split-claw Beast, which had just broken free from its chains and was displaying immense ferocity, had its entire head explode on the spot!

Flesh, bone fragments, and brain matter, mixed with the violent, collapsing force, exploded backward!

The massive beast body even maintained its lunging posture before crashing to the ground the next second, sliding several meters away, and becoming completely still.

The entire playground went completely silent.

Everyone stared blankly at this scene.

The few Class 3 students who had nearly been killed were deathly pale, trembling all over, and even forgot to cry.

Meanwhile, Lu Cheng stood in front of the vicious beast's corpse, slowly retracting his fist.

Blood dripped from his knuckles.

His chest heaved, but his eyes remained sharp.

At the edge of the playground, Instructor Qin Feng stared at him, his pupils contracting noticeably for the first time.

The power of this punch was vaguely at the level of the Source Gathering Realm!

What kind of martial art was this, and why had he never seen it before?
