A white figure descended from the sky, landing gracefully between Chu Sheng and Zhang Qiang. The girl wore a white training outfit, her high ponytail swaying as she moved with an air of confidence. In her hand was a silver long sword, its tip pointed directly at Zhang Qiang, glinting with a chilling light.
"Lin Yue, mind your own business!" Zhang Qiang's expression darkened, his voice harsh yet betraying a hint of unease in his eyes.
Chu Sheng's ability immediately analyzed the opponent's information: [Lin Yue, Martial Arts Second Rank peak, Ability: Rapid, Swordsmanship Genius]. Chu Sheng thought to himself: Interesting. This so-called Longcheng First Martial Arts High School truly has hidden talents.
"Zhang Qiang, you bring four people to corner a newcomer and still have the nerve to call yourself a martial artist?" Lin Yue scoffed. "If you want to fight, go to the Martial Arts Arena and compete openly."
Zhang Qiang's expression fluctuated between anger and frustration. Finally, he huffed, "We'll see about that!" and left with his subordinates, looking like a pack of defeated dogs.
"Thank you," Chu Sheng said calmly, his tone as steady as water.
Lin Yue turned to examine Chu Sheng, curiosity flickering in her eyes. "I heard your Power Test reached 3500 today. Not bad. Want to spar at the Martial Arts Arena?"
Chu Sheng raised an eyebrow slightly. This Lin Yue was quite straightforward. He nodded in agreement. "Sure."
Inside the Martial Arts Arena, many students had already gathered. Clearly, news of the newcomer’s impressive Power Test had spread, and everyone wanted to witness Chu Sheng's true strength.
"Look, it's Lin Yue!"
"She's our school's swordsmanship genius!"
"This is going to be exciting!"
Whispers filled the air like a boiling pot. Chu Sheng stood in the center of the arena, watching Lin Yue across from him. The girl had shed her earlier casual demeanor; her gaze had sharpened, and she now resembled a drawn sword ready for battle.
Sunlight streamed through the glass dome of the Martial Arts Arena, illuminating Lin Yue's white training outfit and enhancing her striking presence. At this moment, she was no longer just an interfering girl but a true master of swordsmanship.
Chu Sheng took a deep breath, feeling the tense atmosphere around him. He knew this match would be a tough one.
"Please guide me," Lin Yue said as she held her sword with both hands, assuming a formal stance that conveyed seriousness.
Chu Sheng remained silent but nodded lightly. His ability began analyzing his opponent: [Specializes in rapid advances; sword techniques focus on speed, precision, and lethality; greatest weakness is prolonged battles].
The onlooking students held their breath, their eyes glued to the two combatants, afraid to miss any thrilling moment.
With a crisp sound of a sword ringing, Lin Yue's figure vanished from the spot, swift as lightning! In the next moment, a cold gleam shot straight for Chu Sheng's throat!
Chu Sheng's eyes narrowed, and his body instinctively retreated half a step, narrowly avoiding this deadly strike. His experience as an assassin in his past life told him that the speed and angle of this sword were nothing short of perfect; had it been an ordinary person, they would have surely met their end.
"How fast!"
"Truly worthy of Lin Yue; she strikes with lethal intent right from the start!"
The surrounding students gasped in astonishment, their eyes filled with shock.
But what stunned them even more was Chu Sheng's reaction. He twisted his body at an incredible angle, not only evading the lethal blow perfectly but also launching a right fist like lightning towards Lin Yue's chest!
A flicker of surprise flashed in Lin Yue's eyes as she quickly retreated. However, Chu Sheng's assault did not cease; his punches poured down like a torrential rain, each one precisely sealing off any possible escape route for Lin Yue, his offensive relentless and merciless.
"What kind of boxing technique is this?"
"What an overwhelming sense of pressure!"
The audience erupted in exclamations, many students left dumbfounded by the display.
Lin Yue was forced to retreat repeatedly, beads of sweat forming on her forehead. Suddenly, an unusual light flickered in her eyes. "Rapid, activate!"
In an instant, Lin Yue's speed surged dramatically, transforming her into a white flash that left behind afterimages in the arena, dazzling to behold. Chu Sheng's ability immediately issued a warning: [Opponent's speed increased by 300%, normal attacks are difficult to land].
At that moment, a student in the crowd was accidentally knocked over by the residual force of the battle and was about to crash into a stone pillar at the edge of the arena. Chu Sheng reacted swiftly, dashing forward to shield the student behind him.
"Damn it, what’s going on!" exclaimed the rescued student, still shaken.
"Ding!" The system notification sounded: "Assisted another person; gained 1 merit point. Would you like to consume merit points to enhance strength?"
"Enhance!" Chu Sheng thought without hesitation.
He felt an explosive surge of power coursing through him as if he had boundless strength. He suddenly turned around and threw a punch at the rapidly moving Lin Yue! This punch gathered all his might, causing the air around it to tremble!
Lin Yue's pupils contracted as she sensed a deadly threat. But the speed was too fast; there was no time to change direction!
"Bang!"
The clash of fist and sword produced a deafening sound. A powerful shockwave radiated outward from the two, causing the surrounding students to stumble and fall. Lin Yue was knocked back several steps, barely managing to steady herself after retreating five paces, her face slightly pale.
Silence enveloped the scene, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone was stunned into silence by this astonishing duel.
Lin Yue glanced at her slightly trembling wrist and suddenly smiled. "Chu Sheng, you're strong. This is the first time since I enrolled that I've encountered an opponent who can counterattack while I use my Rapid Ability."
Chu Sheng retracted his fist and calmly replied, "Your swordsmanship is impressive as well."
Just then, hurried footsteps approached. "What’s going on? Who's fighting in the Martial Arts Arena?"
Lin Yue's expression changed. "It's the Director! We need to go!" She exclaimed, grabbing Chu Sheng's hand and sprinting toward the exit.
The two ran frantically until they finally stopped in the woods behind the school. Lin Yue leaned against a tree, panting heavily, yet unable to hide her smile. "Chu Sheng, from now on, we're friends!"
Chu Sheng looked at the girl's bright smile and felt an unusual sensation stir within him. He realized that in this unfamiliar world, he had finally found his first true friend.
However, just then, a thunderous explosion echoed from afar, shaking the entire school!
