Chapter 010: Mid-Year Assessment

With the Heavenly Quality qualification, by circulating through the nine celestial meridians, one can refine a trace of stellar energy, which takes approximately five hours. If one practices for ten hours a day, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it would take about sixteen months to reach the level of a one-star warrior. However, if one practices for twenty hours a day, coupled with the assistance of stellar energy stones, it is entirely possible to attain the one-star warrior realm within six months

Perform five hundred push-ups each morning and evening to strengthen your arm muscles

Wang Li

Currently, Han Xue has already entered the realm of a One-Star Warrior. She resides next to Teacher Anya, in a two-story small building that is quiet and comfortable. Therefore, whenever Han Xue encounters difficulties in her training, she can receive careful and comprehensive answers from Teacher Anya at any time, making rapid progress.

For the past two months, my hands have been bloodied every day, and my legs have always been limping.

The surface of the fists and the soles of the feet have developed a thick layer of calluses

I looked at Yan'er, who was beside me, listless and resembling an injured kitten, and my heart ached

Yaner looked at me as I gazed in her direction, then raised her head and coldly addressed Shen Xing: "Please leave, I do not wish for anyone to affect our appetite while I am dining with Wang Li, and I certainly do not want someone barking like a mad dog beside us."

Creak! Yan'er’s door was also opened.

I touched the bulging muscles on my arms, as hard as iron, and began to recall my hellish training over the past five months

Haha ... ... a worthless person actually dares to speak to me like this. Shen Xing burst into laughter

I found a tree in the woods of the academy, wrapped it with a quilt, and every day I throw ten thousand punches and kick ten thousand times

Yaner, you are up. Let's go have breakfast! I stopped exercising and spoke to Yaner.

"Alliance Leader, is it time to eat now? I am quite hungry," said Yan'er, who seemed to be reinvigorated upon hearing my words, her spirits lifted a little.

Although Yan'er is not inferior to Han Xue in appearance, and may even surpass her slightly, her cultivation talent is only average. Therefore, at the Sa'an Academy, which values strength above all, Yan'er has become just one of the many ordinary students. Her beauty is overshadowed by her cultivation talent, and no one pays attention to her, except for me.

After dinner, Yan'er and I took a walk for a while. As night fell, we climbed up to the rooftop to gaze at the stars. That night, we talked about many things

Perform five hundred frog jumps each morning and evening to strengthen your waist and abdominal muscles

Yuan Jun, due to his exceptional cultivation aptitude, quickly established his status in the class and gained a few close friends, much like at Zhangnan High School. However, back then at Zhangnan High School, I could easily outshine Yuan Jun academically, whereas now, at Sa'an Academy, I find myself utterly lacking, with no advantages whatsoever

The muscles in the abdomen and lower back have also begun to become grotesque, appearing in distinct bulges

On Earth, even as a small bean sprout, I dared to confront Huang Jian and his three little thugs with a brick for Yan'er. Moreover, after five months of hellish training, my body has already developed muscles, so what do I have to fear from Shen Xing?

Yan'er blushed deeply upon hearing my words

Shen Xing, who is also a classmate in our Anya class, possesses top-tier cultivation aptitude. His family is considered an upper-class family in Stan City, and they provide him with two Star Power Stones each month to accelerate his cultivation.

Tomorrow marks the half-year assessment, as the six of us have entered school a month late, while the other students have been studying and living at Sa'an Academy for a full six months

Today, the news of Han Xue becoming a one-star warrior has had a profound impact on Yan'er

After performing 500 push-ups, single-leg squats, and frog jumps each

Yaner, I won't be practicing tonight. How about we go up to the rooftop to stargaze? Over the past five months, Yaner has also felt the pressure, so she has been diligently practicing every day.

Over the past two months, Yan'er has used all her star coins to buy ointment for me

However, in the one hundred strands of star power exchanged in combat with Yan'er, I was only slightly at a disadvantage

... ...

What if he has cultivated four hundred strands of star power

Hmm! Yan'er nodded, then closed the door to the room, and took my hand as we walked towards the dining hall

"Wait a moment, after scolding me and Yan'er, you think you can just walk away? You take your identity as the eldest son of the Shen family too seriously." I put the last bite of food into my mouth and then slowly stood up.

Two months have passed in the blink of an eye. The six of us have been in Anya's class for a full five months, and we have also been practicing for five months

Today, Teacher Anya announced the assessment rules. In the entire Star Alliance, everything is based on strength, so the assessment is quite simple: two people will compete against each other in a knockout system, progressing from thirty-six to eighteen, and then from eighteen to nine. Each of the top nine will receive a Star Power Stone as a reward

In the past, Yan'er generally maintained a pleasant demeanor towards him, as she did not want to offend him.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, I lie in bed, and the habit formed over five months of a certain routine makes it impossible for me to sleep now, even though my head is very tired.

Considering that Xingli cannot catch up with other classmates under any circumstances, in the following two months, in addition to practicing Xingli for ten hours each day, I began to run 10,000 meters around the training ground every morning to strengthen my lung capacity and endurance

Hearing Shen Xing's reprimand, I looked at Yan'er. I would die for Yan'er, but the premise is Yan'er's attitude

A single Star Power Stone contains 10 strands of star power, while twenty Star Power Stones contain 200 strands of star power, thus saving Han Xue two to three months of arduous cultivation

When Yan'er spoke these words, my entire body tensed up; as long as Shen Xing made any move, I would fight him to the bitter end

I held Yan'er’s hand and walked towards the cafeteria of the academy

Moreover, Han Xue is gradually becoming the goddess of Saan Academy, with an increasing number of second-year and even third-year seniors coming to our class to invite Han Xue to participate in various activities

Although I only possess sixty strands of star power in my dantian, Yan'er and the other students with medium cultivation aptitude have between one hundred to one hundred fifty strands, depending on their individual dedication to cultivation

From the countless affections at Zhangnan High School to the current neglect at Saan College, Yan'er has yet to adapt even after five months

A one-star warrior must cultivate at least 1,000 strands of star power in their dantian to have a chance of凝聚成 a star

I saw Shen Xing laughing heartily, and he lifted his foot to kick towards his abdomen

I have struck that tree a total of six hundred thousand punches and six hundred thousand kicks

Han Xue, due to her exceptional cultivation aptitude, received ten Star Power Stones as a reward from the school, and Teacher Anya also personally gifted her an additional ten Star Power Stones

Simultaneously practice one very simple straight punch and one front kick

You... you are so good! Good! Good! A woman who willingly falls into depravity, you will eventually know your fate." Shen Xing was humiliated by Yan Er, and in the end, did not take action; she merely snorted coldly and intended to leave.

As Yan'er was about to stop me, I prevented her from doing so

Yaner appears to be completely lacking in spirit

Tomorrow marks the half-year assessment, yet I find my heart has calmed down. Over the past five months, I have fully unleashed my potential, pushing myself to the limit each day, to the point where I could fall asleep while walking

Go!

At this moment, Han Xue has truly become the ice and snow goddess of the class, and the gazes of others towards her are filled with admiration. Due to the vast difference between her and the others, it is impossible for anyone to feel jealousy.

After two months of rigorous training, I am no longer the fragile bean sprout and bookworm I once was; my arms have thickened, and my muscles have developed.

"Tomorrow, I will make those who insult me as trash shut their mouths. I must enter the top nine and win a Star Power Stone for Yan'er, even if it costs me my life!" I thought to myself.

The semi-annual assessments are conducted only within each class, rather than as a collective evaluation for the entire school. Only the comprehensive examination at the end of the three years involves a collective assessment of all students in the school, and the rewards for this are substantial

Yan'er possesses an outstanding appearance, yet due to her inadequate cultivation aptitude, Shen Xing always believes that Yan'er should hold him in high regard. When he offers her a smile, Yan'er ought to be overjoyed and immensely grateful.

The next morning, I woke up promptly at 5 o'clock. After freshening up, I stepped out of my room and began doing warm-up exercises in front of the door, unlike before when I would run laps around the training ground

Perform five hundred single-leg squats each morning and evening to strengthen your leg muscles

The thighs have become robust, exuding a sense of strength at first glance

"Yan'er, why are you still with this good-for-nothing? You should maintain your integrity." As Yan'er and I were sitting in the cafeteria having breakfast, Shen Xing suddenly walked by and scolded Yan'er with a face full of anger

I have worked tirelessly; the outcome will be revealed tomorrow

I suddenly took Yan'er’s hand and placed it on my chest, then gazed deeply into her eyes: "The glory that awaits you in the future will be beyond what Han Xue can reach, for you will become the wife of the leader of the Starry Sky Alliance"

Furthermore, the assessment of the nine academies in Stancity, held once every five years, is a significant event in Stancity. At that time, warriors or martial artists from other cities will also come to observe
