60: Chapter 60 Specially Recruited Teachers
On the leaderboard of the Special Recruitment Camp, Wang Pingan had left behind a terrifying number that was enough to make everyone lose sleep.
Fifty-two thousand seven hundred and eighty.
He had become the undisputed number one.
The next two months were calm and uneventful.
No one else dared to come and provoke him.
He steadily took first place in both monthly exams.
During these two months, by using the "80 for big hammer, 30 for small hammer" point-adding method, his strength successfully reached Peak Third Grade.
【 host: Wang Pingan 】
【 Realm: Third-Rank Martial Artist (blood qi value 999/1000) 】
【 Strength: 99.9 】
【 Speed: 99.9 】
【 Constitution: 99.9 】
【 Spirit: 99.9 】
【 Recovery: 99.9 】
【 pay-to-win points: 18765 】
As for why his pay-to-win points increased instead of decreasing, there was surely a reason for it.
He had exchanged all his point rewards from these past few times for Low-Grade Spirit Crystals, which was why his pay-to-win points had increased instead of decreasing.
According to Old Lei, a teacher from the admissions office of the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University had already arrived at the training camp. He didn't know when they would come to talk to him, and Wang Pingan was actually feeling a little excited.
Just at this moment.
Knock, knock, knock.
The dormitory door was knocked on at a leisurely pace.
Wang Pingan walked over and opened the door.
Standing outside the door was not someone he knew.
Instead, it was a strange woman.
She looked to be twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing a well-tailored sky-blue uniform, with an exquisite badge composed of stars and scrolls on the chest of the uniform.
She had short, capable hair, gentle features, and a kind smile on her face that made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.
"Hello, Student Wang Pingan. I am Teacher Liu Qing from the admissions office of the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University."
Wang Pingan was stunned.
The teacher from the admissions office of the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University that he had just been thinking about had arrived already?
His gaze crossed past Teacher Liu Qing, and he saw that there was another person standing behind her.
That was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties, also wearing the uniform of Xuanyuan University, but his expression was the exact opposite of Teacher Liu Qing's.
His face was cold and stern, his eyes sharp, and from the moment Wang Pingan opened the door, he had locked onto him tightly, as if he wanted to see through his very internal organs.
Teacher Liu Qing's smile remained gentle as she pointed at the assistant behind her and continued.
"The situation is a bit special, so we came over ahead of schedule. We didn't disturb your rest, did we?"
Wang Pingan suppressed the surprise in his heart and hurriedly stepped aside.
"No, not at all. Hello, Teacher. Please, come in."
Teacher Liu Qing smiled and walked into the dormitory, her gaze sweeping across the room.
She didn't say anything, just turned her head to look at Wang Pingan again.
"Student Wang Pingan, we came this time not only to discuss the details of the contract with you in person, but also to presumptuously conduct a small 'entrance physical test'. You don't mind, do you?"
Her words were gentle, with a consultative tone.
But the young assistant behind her stepped forward, his eyes like those of a hawk carrying a sense of scrutiny, and suddenly the air became heavy.
"Entrance physical test?"
Wang Pingan's face revealed just the right amount of confusion.
Teacher Liu Qing seemed to see through his doubts, smiled gently, and took the initiative to explain.
"Don't be nervous. This isn't any formal assessment. It's mainly because your file is too astonishing. In just a few short months, you rushed from an ordinary student to Peak Third Grade. The school's higher-ups attach great importance to this growth speed. So, they specifically sent me to bring a 'Bio-Energy Spectrum Analyzer' over to do a more accurate potential assessment for you."
As she spoke, the cold, stern young assistant behind her took out a silver-white watch-like instrument from the metal case he was carrying.
"This instrument is much more precise than those in the base training hall. It can not only measure your peak blood qi value, but more importantly, it can analyze the 'activity' and 'degree of refinement' of your blood qi power. This can help us more intuitively understand your talent, so we can tailor the most suitable cultivation plan for you."
Teacher Liu Qing's words were watertight, filled with the humanistic care of universities from his previous life.
But Wang Pingan instantly grasped the keywords.
Activity? Degree of refinement?
Isn't this just checking his foundation!
"Alright, Teacher, I understand."
Wang Pingan nodded, showing the appearance an obedient student should have, and took the initiative to extend his wrist.
The cold, stern young man said nothing, stepped forward, and fastened the watch-like instrument onto his wrist.
The surface of the instrument lit up with a soft blue light, and a virtual screen projected into mid-air.
"The test is very simple." Teacher Liu Qing pointed to the open space in the center of the dormitory. "Use your full strength to perform a set of punches. We will record the blood qi fluctuation data throughout the entire process from when you exert force, to exhaustion, and then to recovery."
"Okay."
Wang Pingan took a deep breath and walked to the center of the open space.
He knew this was the most critical "performance" before he entered the university.
If he performed well, he would be the genius held in the palm of the hand by the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University.
If he messed up the performance, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He had to find a perfect balance point between "showing off his talent" and "exposing an unstable foundation."
"Begin," Teacher Liu Qing said softly.
Wang Pingan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his entire aura changed abruptly.
《 Meteor Fist Technique 》!
Without the slightest reservation, he started by using his strongest fist technique!
Boom!
With one punch thrown, a dull explosion sounded in the air.
999 calories of blood qi power erupted without reservation. That force even caused the cold, stern young man standing several meters away to involuntarily squint his eyes.
Such strong explosive power!
Teacher Liu Qing watched the energy curve on the virtual screen instantly soar to its peak, and a flash of surprise also crossed her gentle face.
But her attention quickly shifted to the latter half of the curve.
Wang Pingan threw punch after punch, the wind of his fists whistling, with every punch unleashing the might that a Peak Third Grade martial artist should have.
The air in the entire dormitory was stirred up by him as if it were boiling water.
However, after ten punches, his movements began to show an imperceptible lag.
After twenty punches, his breathing became heavy, and fine beads of sweat seeped out on his forehead.
Thirty punches!
When he threw the thirtieth punch, his whole body seemed to be drained of all its strength, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.
His chest heaved violently, his body swayed, and with a stagger, he almost fell directly to the ground.
"That's enough," Teacher Liu Qing said in time.
The cold, stern young man immediately stepped forward to support the swaying Wang Pingan, while simultaneously removing the instrument from his wrist.
Wang Pingan leaned on the young man's arm, gasping heavily, portraying the image of a genius who had "huge potential but a floating foundation, and whose body was severely depleted due to being overly eager for quick success" to the extreme, which matched perfectly with his high spiritual energy affinity of 96 points.
Teacher Liu Qing walked over quickly and took the instrument.
The screen displayed two completely different data curves.
One curve representing "blood qi activity" had a frighteningly high value, far exceeding the range that a Third-Rank Martial Artist should have, and could even rival some martial artists who had just entered the Fourth Rank.
And the other curve, representing "blood qi degree of refinement" and "recovery speed," was pitifully low, and after Wang Pingan reached exhaustion, it showed a cliff-like drop, unable to return to stability for a long time.
One extremely high, one extremely low.
Two such contradictory data points appearing on the same person.
Teacher Liu Qing seemed very satisfied with this result.
"Student Wang Pingan, thank you for your hard work." She put away the instrument, and the smile on her face became even more kind. "Your talent is even more outstanding than we expected. On behalf of the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University, I officially extend an invitation to you."
She took out a pre-prepared electronic contract from her briefcase, with a large "S" printed on the cover.
"This is the highest level S-grade special recruitment contract we can offer a new student. Take a look, and if there are no problems..."
Just as Teacher Liu Qing was about to hand the contract to Wang Pingan.
A cold laugh full of arrogance and disdain came from the open dormitory door without any warning.
"Is the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University always this sneaky, acting like thieves?"
Before the words had even faded, a tall, imposing middle-aged man strode in.
He was wearing a deep black uniform, the style of which was completely different from the one Teacher Liu Qing was wearing, and on his chest was an overbearing badge composed of a sharp sword and a galaxy.
It belonged to another top institution in the Xuan Yuan Galaxy System that was as famous as the Xuan Yuan Galaxy First Martial Arts University (hereafter referred to as Xuanyuan University), and even superior in some aspects — Xuanhe Martial Arts University!
The person who arrived was named Huo Shan. He didn't even glance at Teacher Liu Qing; his aggressive gaze fell directly on the still "weak" Wang Pingan, just like a male lion inspecting its prey.
"Kid, don't be in such a rush to sign." Huo Shan grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "Our Xuanhe Martial Arts University can give you something better."
A young man was also following behind him.
That young man was of similar age to Wang Pingan, but his aura was equally powerful. A pair of unruly eyes looked Wang Pingan up and down with contempt, full of naked provocation.
A sudden battle to snatch a person broke out right then and there.
