Chapter 7: The Strength of Wang Zheng
Some stuttering students surrounded the five of them.
Wang Zheng
Liu Dong laughed heartily and said, "Ma Shao, in fact, there is nothing to it. Some people overestimate themselves and are determined to make a fool of themselves; we might as well indulge them. Luo Shao, Ma Shao, don't you think that this kind of school life is becoming more and more exciting?"
All five individuals have surpassed the 750-kilogram mark, which indeed surprised Su Yunlan, while also causing her to nod in approval in secret. This achievement, when placed within the context of the entire Nanshan Academy, cannot be considered the very best, yet it is already a commendable result.
Sun Qiang clapped his hands and said, "Zheng Ge, well done, keep it up"
"Wang Cong, you go first," Su Yunlan directly called out.
Despite the calm expression on Wang Zheng's face, he had already cursed Liu Dong's grandmother countless times in his heart for this brazen act of stealing.
As soon as Luo Ting spoke, the entire venue fell silent, fearing to offend Young Master Luo Ting.
Training room
Wang Zheng said, "This is good"
Luo Ting's face was filled with anger: "Wang Zheng, why are you making a fuss when there's nothing going on? Just stay put and mind your own business"
Liu Dong has always considered himself the strongest among the five, but upon seeing Wang Cong's results, he has felt some pressure.
Su Yunlan smiled and said, "Next, Liu Dong."
Seeing Wang Zheng standing out, the entire class was astonished, as if they had witnessed something incredible
788 kilograms
This score is indeed quite good, but Liu Dong feels as if he has been slapped in the face, with hatred in his eyes. However, Liu Dong's hatred is directed towards Wang Zheng, who is beside him. If it were not for Wang Zheng's opposition, how could there have been this test, and how could he have been embarrassed?
The appearance of the results left Liu Dong momentarily stunned
In Ma Shaohua's heart, he did not take Wang Zheng seriously at all; a person who only speaks theoretical knowledge and is frail poses no threat to him
The faces of Luo Ting and the others bore a mocking expression, with the lowest being Ma Shaohua at 761 kilograms. For Wang Zheng, even if he had comprehended the first bone pattern in the past two days, it would still be impossible for him to surpass this figure
Seeing that no one stepped forward, Su Yunlan frowned slightly and looked at Wang Zheng, saying: "Wang Zheng."
I always thought Liu Dong was the top expert in our class, but it seems that Wang Cong is even more impressive now
"Zheng Ge, you are being too impulsive," Sun Qiang said anxiously beside Wang Zheng
A set of numbers appeared on the screen, representing Wang Zheng's final score for this strike
Among the five, the weakest in strength is likely to be Ma Shaohua. If Wang Zheng were to eliminate someone, it would definitely be Ma Shaohua.
The first piece of bone pattern, having 500 kilograms, is already quite impressive
Success or failure hinges on this one move
The result is out, 801 kilograms
With a confident expression on his face, Wang Cong walked up to the strength tester, took a deep breath, squatted into a horse stance, and with a lift of his hand, activated the power within the bone patterns in the dim glow, which instantly transformed into scales that covered his hand
Among the students in the class, many have already cultivated their first bone pattern, but Su Yunlan still wants to see if anyone has made a breakthrough
How could it be Wang Zheng
Luo Ting, whose father is among the top twenty wealthy individuals in Nanshan City, plays a significant role in the city, possessing unfathomable strength
All the students of Class 3-3 have arrived, and today is undoubtedly a dramatic day for them
The strong, in this chaotic new century, find their own paradise, for they can truly trample upon the law, living freely and without restraint. As long as they do not act against humanity, everything else is entirely at their discretion. Those who completely transcend the law instill even greater fear in others
Ma Shaohua said with a cold smile: "Wang Zheng, if you withdraw now, we will still be classmates; otherwise..."
Step onto the strength tester, the bones in the palm harden, and then strike the strength tester with force
In my opinion, Wang Zheng is utterly obsessed with the idea of becoming a martial artist
Wang Zheng walked a few steps to the strength tester, silently encouraging himself.
"Indeed, with your little arms and legs, aren't you afraid of any unforeseen accidents?" Ma Shaohua scoffed. He was referred to as Young Master Ma, and although his family wealth was not as substantial as Luo Ting's, it was not significantly lacking either
Among the five, the weakest is Wang Cong, with a strength of around 700 kilograms, not to mention Liu Dong and the others
"Wang Zheng, you haven't even mastered the first bone pattern, it's really..." Several students who got along well with Wang Zheng beside him wore bitter smiles. They still took into account the identities of Luo Shao and Ma Shao, and did not get too close to Wang Zheng like Sun Qiang did.
Feeling the hostility in Liu Dong's eyes, Wang Zheng also felt a surge of anger
Students who are able to enter Nanshan Bone Pattern Academy will have more than half of them capable of cultivating their first bone pattern, but only a select few among the graduates will be able to become martial artists.
All eyes were focused on Wang Zheng
In an instant, the ossification is complete
Bone Patterns: Each bone in the human body can only be engraved once. The more bone patterns one masters, the stronger their power becomes. In research, when all 204 bones in the human body are fully cultivated with bone patterns, the power possessed is sufficient to alter the heavens and the earth, reaching the point of breaking through the void. The theoretical data shows that over the past century, the highest achievement has been the cultivation of 180 bone patterns, while the remaining 24 bone patterns remain an insurmountable barrier, akin to a heavenly divide.
Looking at the other nine individuals, as the principal commented, although not all of them have entered the top ten experts, they are nonetheless figures with a combat power ranking within the top twenty of the academy
Among the class, Wang Zheng's family background is the most ordinary, yet he aspires to stand out and achieve success
Life in the school is exceedingly dull, and the atmosphere is quite strict. A young man like him, who commands attention and influence in the outside world, finds himself constrained within the school walls. It is a rare opportunity for them to engage in some activities, which instantly piques their interest.
Wang Zheng remained calm, and with the guidance of the bone pattern assistant, he had already become different. Clearly, he could possess a higher stage; why should he continue to be as low-key as before? Becoming a martial artist would allow his parents to no longer toil so hard. For this single goal, Wang Zheng could not allow himself to retreat.
It would be acceptable to make it into the top five; however, if not... If we offend Luo Shao and his group, there will definitely be no good outcome, and it would be absolutely not worth the loss
No wonder he dares to challenge the status of Roth and the others
Even if Wang Zheng has mastered the first piece of bone pattern, how strong can his power really be
The students gasped in astonishment, as no one had anticipated that Wang Cong's strength would be so formidable, achieving a breakthrough in such a short period. A power of 801 kilograms is sufficient to place him among the top twenty of this graduating class
... ...
Under the light, this petrified hand is dark and shiny, with overlapping scales that reflect a terrifying luster
As the thoughts converged, a mysterious and strange force surged through Wang Zheng's fingertips, causing his entire palm to instantaneously become encased in bone. The thick and large scales that covered it, despite their solidity, seemed to possess a certain resilience, allowing Wang Zheng to move his fingers without feeling any stiffness.
Su Yunlan's eyes swept over the faces of Ma Chunyu and Luo Ting with a fierce glare, before finally resting on Wang Zheng.
As graduation approaches, Wang Zheng is no longer afraid of offending Luo Shao and his group
Do not mention the first twenty; without even mastering the first piece of bone pattern, how can one speak of combat power
Li Hao, 786 kilograms
First, the same top five were reserved, and everyone thought the matter was settled. Unexpectedly, Wang Zheng stood up. Then, a group of people was brought here to compete in terms of strength. For the first time, a class that had always been as calm as a still pond experienced ripples.
Your abilities are lacking; what kind of logic is it to blame it on yourself
Previously, it was estimated that one's strength would reach a level exceeding 600 kilograms, but in reality, Wang Zheng has not tested this specifically
788 kilograms is already quite good, and being in the top fifty is not a problem
Beside
Luo Ting, 779 kilograms
Ma Shaohua, 761 kilograms
Upon seeing Wang Zheng's petrified palm, the students could not help but discuss it, and Su Yunlan also nodded in agreement
But what about Wang Zheng
Dozens of trainees gathered around the strength tester, all engaged in lively discussions
The highest cultivation progress among the students in the academy is that they have mastered more than five bone patterns, sufficient to completely ossify an entire arm
Bone patterns are a fascinating phenomenon. Each individual comprehends and engraves their own bone pattern, resulting in certain deviations. This leads to the same initial bone pattern being capable of varying degrees of ossification and generating different levels of power, thereby distinguishing the strong from the weak
In their imagination, Wang Zheng is usually a silent person, and apart from having slightly higher knowledge of bone patterns, he is hardly different from a useless individual. Every time they think of Wang Zheng, it evokes a sense of regret, as he is one of the top ten geniuses personally selected by the dean.
622 kilograms
"Oh, Liu Dong, what you said does sound quite good," Luo Ting also smiled broadly.
After the incident, even the police station merely filed a case and went through the motions, lacking the courage to summon these strong individuals for questioning
A few days ago, Wang Zheng did not even grasp the bone patterns, yet now he dares to challenge.
Ah, Wang Zheng has truly comprehended the first piece of bone pattern
Wang Cong suddenly clenched his bony hand into a fist and struck out with lightning speed, hitting the power tester.
Su Yunlan's face showed a hint of surprise, yet she said: "Classmate Wang Zheng, the academy is fair to every student. As long as one possesses the strength of the top five, they may participate in the training competition. As we mentioned earlier, everyone has the qualification to compete"
Wang Cong's strength is impressive; entering the top twenty is likely not a problem
The participants of this session are all very strong
A dull sound rang out, and the numbers on the force tester flickered rapidly.
Hehe, this guy Wang Zheng, who is all talk and theory, actually dares to stand up and say that Teacher Su is careless
Wang Zheng felt the surging power in his arm, and he directly swung his fist towards the power tester.
In a moment, the results of all five individuals were announced
The results of Luo Ting and the other four are laid out before us, and some eager students, having lost the desire to take the test, realize that with their strength of only three to five hundred kilograms, it is better not to embarrass themselves and become a laughingstock.
Those who oppose them or affect their interests are ruthlessly eliminated by them
Bang
Indeed, does Wang Zheng still wish to compete for a spot in the top five
In the new century, humanity has become significantly stronger in terms of physical constitution compared to the past. In this overall context of enhanced physicality, Wang Zheng has not cultivated bone patterns, and in the eyes of others, he is merely a scholar with no strength to even bind a chicken, yet he dares to step forward and question
"Alright, the results for the five individuals are out. Is there anyone who would like to take on a challenge?" Su Yunlan looked around the room.
