“Don’t worry, he’s fine! Speaking of which, Duan Hu specifically came here for skewers, could it be because of you?” Long Yuan asked with a slight smile.

“Ah? No, we just met…” Little Loli blushed and scurried away, but soon returned with a pot of hot tea…

“Only 16 and already so mature. I feel like I’ve lived my life for nothing…” Long Yuan sighed inwardly, thinking how these young people nowadays really know how to have fun…

However, having the rare Opportunity to Transmigrate, he didn’t want to waste time on such trivial matters. Women would only slow down his sword drawing speed. Since he had obtained the Heavenly Dao Space, he must live up to the style of a strong individual…

Duan Hu, having received the Cultivation Technique and xuan stone, was already impatient. He felt that even the skewers no longer tasted good and wished he could go back and Cultivate immediately. So, the two said goodbye to Little Loli, escaping under her teary-eyed gaze…

On the way, Long Yuan warned him never to reveal the secret of the Cultivation Technique. He told him to avoid using it if possible, but if he had to, it was best to kill the opponent, as dead people don’t reveal secrets…

Back home, Long Yuan reset the few videos he had recorded earlier. These were his means of controlling Qin Gui, Wang Yu, and their group. Of course, he wasn’t guarding against them, but their elders. His current strength was still no match for a Martial Master, so he had to improve quickly. However, there was no need to worry too much; as long as he grasped the psychological weaknesses of these Family scions, they wouldn’t dare to reveal what happened today.

What surprised Long Yuan was that Yun Yi, this cult member, was actually hidden in Fengyang No. 1 High School and had become his teacher. This was definitely a ticking time bomb that could explode at any time. Should he expose him?

He thought about it carefully and decided to remain inactive for now.

Yun Yi’s performance today seemed to indicate he wasn’t planning to act against him yet, and might even be there to protect him. This meant he had other intentions and wouldn’t be detrimental to him for the time being. Besides, was he alone in Fengyang No. 1 High School, or were there others? Like Yun Feiyan?

Both were members of the Southern Ming Yun Family, and Yun Feiyan had arranged for him to be a teacher at Fengyang No. 1 High School. There might be more to this, and he needed to observe in secret.

Of course, most importantly, Long Yuan was not afraid of Yun Yi, because he was terrifyingly strong in terms of Soul Power. If Yun Yi wanted to act against him in this aspect, he would only be courting his own demise!

Long Yuan recalled his performance today and found that he hadn’t revealed too much, so Yun Yi shouldn’t be suspicious of him. But he must be careful in the future; if his ultimate secret were discovered, there’s no telling what other ideas he might have!

In this world, the human heart is the most unpredictable, and the human heart cannot be tested…

Alas, in the end, he was still too weak to act freely. The most urgent task was to use existing conditions to quickly improve his Cultivation and put himself in an invincible position!

Long Yuan quickly composed himself and first went to the Treasure Pavilion to read some books. Although he said “a while,” the time length in the small space was adjusted, and he spent a full week inside. Due to the limited energy of the space, he had to use it sparingly, so he didn’t dare to adjust it for too long, setting a limit of one week for now.

Then he browsed the Martial Arts Home website for a while before entering a state of Cultivation…

The next day in the Elite Class, about a dozen people were injured. Some had difficulty with their legs, some had their arms in slings, some wore masks on their faces, and their bodies were covered in plaster…

This scene left Ye Xuan, Luo Ying, Zhang Li, Long Xiangning, and others dumbfounded. Yun Yi, however, showed no surprise. He had witnessed the entire process yesterday and already knew the full story.

His gaze swept over Long Yuan, noticing his calm and unconcerned expression. He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, thinking, “So young, yet he knows how to endure and hide his talents. He acts when necessary and handles the aftermath well. This kid will likely be a ruthless character when he grows up. Should I recruit him into the Shadow Moon Hall?”

Qin Gui and the others, however, behaved differently. After being severely taught a lesson by Long Yuan yesterday and then held in check by the video, their gazes towards Long Yuan today were off, appearing somewhat timid and clearly having lost their fighting spirit. This display of initial aggression followed by deference was truly contemptible…

Yun Yi frowned and said, “Injured students, step forward!”

Qin Gui, Wang Yu, and the others were startled by the command but all took a step forward.

“How did you all get injured? Did you get into a group fight?”

“Ah, this… No, I over-trained yesterday and got injured!” Qin Gui quickly said.

“What about you?” Yun Yi looked at Wang Yu.

Wang Yu stammered, “Teacher, I accidentally got hit by a car on my way home yesterday…”

“What about you all?!” Yun Yi asked the others.

“I was bitten by the dog at home…”

“I slipped while walking down the stairs…”

“An advertising sign fell on my head…”

“I tripped over a fallen tree…”

“…”

Yun Yi’s expression changed, and he shouted, “Very good, you’re all so fragile, aren’t you? Run ten kilometers around the track!”

“Huh?!” Everyone was stunned. They were injured and still had to run as punishment? Where was the justice?!

“Didn’t you hear clearly? Run!!!”

“Yes! Yes, yes, yes!” The dozen or so people dared not delay and quickly started running. Those with bad legs were miserable, limping along, their posture as comical as could be…

“Haha… Hahahahaha…”

The other students were laughing so hard they were doubled over when they suddenly heard Yun Yi roar, “The rest of you, five hundred push-ups, fifty repetitions of School Exercise Fist!”

“Huh?!” Everyone nearly fainted upon hearing this.

“Start!”

“Yes!!!” The students’ hearts tightened, and they quickly began to train…

Long Yuan had consolidated his Early Stage Martial Artist Realm last night. His Qi and blood were vigorous, with a Qi and blood value reaching 810 points, which was 210 points higher than the official standard. His strength had a 2.5-fold increase, reaching 2025 kilograms! This strength value already exceeded the official Late Stage Martial Artist standard of 2000 kilograms. This meant that, according to official standards, Long Yuan could already cross two levels and contend with a Late Stage Martial Artist Xuan Practitioner. Such a strength increase was astonishing, showing that his current talent and Cultivation Technique had surpassed ordinary people’s imagination…

At this moment, his internal organs were like beautiful jade, as if reborn. He was full of energy and practiced meticulously, also making his fist technique more proficient. However, he always held back, not revealing the subtleties of his Medium Grade Earth Rank fist technique…

Through a week of reading and research in the space, he now understood his talent. His Divine Rank Physique should be all-encompassing, including not only physical strength but also Comprehension Ability, attributes, Qi and blood, Mental Energy, and other aspects. With these factors as a foundation, there should be no difficulty in the Early Stage of Cultivation. As long as he had resources, he could easily improve. By Cultivating according to the Creation Profound Heaven Skill, he could reach the extreme in every Realm, thereby laying a solid foundation for his Martial Dao and even his future path of immortality. For example, why his skin and flesh appeared jade-like was actually a manifestation of the Extreme Xuan Skin. In the Xuan Skin Realm, bronze skin is not the limit; beyond bronze skin, there is jade skin. When jade skin is cultivated to Perfection, the skin will appear jade-like. Only in this way can one reach the Extreme of the Xuan Skin Realm. Most Xuan Practitioners are unaware of this Realm; only some forces or Families with high-level Cultivation Technique Legacy would know. If Long Yuan hadn’t Cultivated the Creation Profound Heaven Skill, he might have directly entered the Xuan Flesh Realm during the bronze skin stage, which would inevitably leave hidden dangers, detrimental to the future development of his Martial Dao.

For Long Yuan, he certainly hoped to reach the extreme in every Realm, leaving no flaws, so that he could climb higher and see further. This was extremely difficult for others, but relatively easy for him, because the Heavenly Dao Eye had already transformed his Physique and provided Divine Rank Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills. What others needed vast resources and Opportunities to achieve, he accomplished overnight. Thinking back, it still felt like a dream. He truly experienced the boundless happiness of being favored by the Heavenly Dao…

However, the Divine Rank Physique is not achieved overnight, but requires continuous development, from the Early Stage prototype to Minor Achievement, Major Achievement, Perfection, and perfect. Each stage will bring a qualitative improvement in the power that can be exerted. Currently, his Divine Rank Physique has just begun and has not yet fully demonstrated its power, so he must, of course, go all out to develop his Physique as quickly as possible…

He was practicing his fist technique while pondering when he suddenly heard a voice call out, “Where’s Long Yuan?”

He looked up and saw it was Principal Lu Shijie, and quickly replied, “Principal, I’m here!”

“Come quickly, the county’s reward has arrived!” Lu Shijie said.

“That fast?!” He quickly jogged over.

Lu Shijie handed him two cards and said, “This one is a bank card, with five thousand xuan coins inside. The password is the last six digits of the card number. And this one is a Geng County Library card, with the highest access level.”

Long Yuan took them with both hands and respectfully said, “Thank you, Principal!”

“Haha, this time it’s all thanks to your information. County Magistrate Geng originally wanted to meet you personally, but considering the impact would be too great and not conducive to protecting you, he asked me to deliver it! How is it, practicing in this Elite Class?” Lu Shijie laughed.

“Thank you for your concern, Principal! I’m doing very well here!”

“That’s good. If you have any difficulties, you can always find Teacher Yun and me. We will help you solve whatever we can!”

“How would I dare? Both teachers have been kind enough to me. How could I bother you again?”

“Haha, no worries, no worries. Oh, Teacher Yun, those students running, are they all injured?” Lu Shijie finally noticed that something was off with the students on the track.

Yun Yi snorted, “They’re injured from Cultivating.”

“What? This… Although the Elite Class needs to increase training intensity, if they’re all injured like this, it’s better to heal first before continuing to train!”

“Sorry, I’m in charge here…” Yun Yi retorted.

Lu Shijie looked embarrassed and said with a wry smile, “Alright, then I’ll be going now as I have something to attend to!”

“Take care and don’t bother seeing me out!”

Lu Shijie waved his hand helplessly and left…
