Chapter Nine, Family Heritage of Martial Arts

After joking for a while, Chi Chuanle left

Two completely still leaves are positioned very close to each other. If someone gazes over and examines them closely, they can see that the petioles of these two leaves are almost touching, yet they do not actually make contact.

When Shu Yu woke up, it was already dark. He had probably slept for seven or eight hours, having slept all the way from the morning to the evening

Shu Yu gazed at the leaf

The tinnitus roars, the limbs feel weak, and the skin all over the body seems to be forcefully pulled inward by something...

As he just settled on the ground, the fallen leaves around him all floated up, displaying a remarkably stable and calm posture. After a moment, they began to dance up and down, left and right, as if a militarized unit was marching in formation. ... After a while, their movements became even more agile, almost evoking a sense of dance ...

This set of martial arts consists of forty-eight forms. By the time he reached the fifteenth form, Shu Yu was beginning to struggle, drenched in sweat and experiencing muscle pain. However, he was born with a tenacity; otherwise, he would not have consistently outperformed all his classmates except for those in Class 2, despite not being a natural talent. Therefore, he remained focused, gritting his teeth and continuing on.

This is the power of his evolution

Gradually, he became acutely aware of the existence of the black hole in his chest. However, he understood well that fatigue was acceptable, but distraction was not. Therefore, he forced himself to concentrate entirely on his movements, persevering through each form one after another

Kang Lai instead called out to him and asked, "Aren't you bringing a personal terminal?"

The day was designated as clear, and naturally, the night was also very clear. He opened his eyes and saw the twinkling stars through the gaps in the trees, deep and mysterious. That was another vast world, much broader than this one.

Before leaving, they agreed to go out together to buy a personal terminal once the school's ban was lifted—Chizhuan Le would pay, after all, he was so capable that he had destroyed several people's terminals under the ice ridge.

Not good

... ...

Under the gaze of those wolf-like eyes, the inexperienced Shu Yu felt particularly anxious. He took a deep breath, sat down on the grass, and lay back.

He has evolved

Shu Yu jumped up, assumed a stance, and began to practice his boxing. Since the age of two, his father had taught him this set of punches, and he had not missed a single day of practice. Ever since he discovered that it could calm his chaotic thoughts, Shu Yu has been more consciously committed to maintaining this habit

He hurried to the woods near the dormitory, and when he could no longer see anyone around, Shu Yu finally stopped, feeling the cold sweat on his back

Shu Yu had already made up his mind, and at this moment, he revealed everything he knew before yesterday without holding anything back. As an ordinary student, his interactions with Lao Ding were reasonable, and with Chi Chuanle as a witness, there was not a trace of flaw.

The dance lasted for about one minute. In the end, all the leaves suddenly exploded with a loud bang, splattering everywhere. A leaf also grazed Shu Yu's earlobe, leaving a small cut of blood on it.

Today has been designated as a sunny day Golden sunlight filters through the gaps in the trees, transforming the canopy into an artwork of varying shades, almost transparent Through the gaps, the blue sky can be faintly seen, with wispy clouds gently flowing through the openings

Shu Yu was drenched in sweat, his expression weary, yet the light in his eyes shone even brighter

A leaf swayed gently as it fell from the tree, the forest was dark, with only a few sparse rays of light filtering through from outside, faintly illuminating the space between the trees. This leaf appeared like a shadowy ghost, elusive and indistinct.

He changed his future, graduating from school two months later. He would not become a non-evolved individual derogatorily referred to as a "weakling"; instead, he would be able to enter the ranks of normal people with dignity and begin his brand new life

He immediately forced that feeling down, as this enormous palm gently rested on his shoulder and arm, giving a light pat, infused with a sense of friendliness

Therefore, Shuyu loves the night the most

The sweat on my body gradually dried, bringing a wave of coolness

Shu Yu gritted his teeth, stood up again, and decided to give it another try

At last, he finally completed the last move, his sweat thoroughly soaking his school uniform, forming a small puddle at his feet. As soon as he finished the final posture, his upright torso bent down, and he collapsed to the ground, falling into a deep sleep

He clears his mind, not thinking of anything, focusing solely on concentrating his thoughts on each action.

After finishing a set of punches, he stood still in a ready position, feeling somewhat fatigued. He found it strange; this set of punches was as easy for him as eating a meal. Normally, after practicing, he would feel refreshed and invigorated. Why did he feel so tired today?

Left foot stands firm, both hands raised, knees bent in a squat... White Crane Spreads Its Wings, Left Embrace the Waist and Step, Left Single Whip, Left Pipa Style...

... ...

This time is much more difficult than the last; he even feels as if his hands and feet are bound by something particularly heavy, dragging him down. He must exert tremendous effort to ensure that each movement is precise and in place

Shu Yu released the two leaves, allowing them to fall to the ground, while he himself stood up

Indeed, Kang Lai began to inquire about the relevant dormitory manager Ding Hongwei, and Shu Yu secretly felt relieved. If it had not been for Chi Chuanle's earlier preparation, he would not have known what kind of blunder he might reveal if suddenly confronted by this menacing giant asking questions

He has practiced this set of punches thousands of times, each movement has become second nature, completely transformed into a muscle reaction, requiring no thought from the brain. He is immersed in his own world, gradually becoming entranced

Regardless of whether it is clear or overcast during the day, it is all a result of the artificial canopy. Only at night, with the sky full of stars, does the true existence of the starry sky reveal itself. He looked at the sky and smiled faintly.

Completely still. Not a single tremor.

He has evolved

According to his understanding of the classification of levels and * diagrams * in books, this ability is estimated to be only at level 1, but the control has already approached level 3

Kang Lai often saw expressions of fear mixed with a strong resolve not to retreat, but he paid no mind to it. He glanced at his subordinates and said, "Good children, look at this mess here. The principal has asked us to tidy it up, so you better step aside to avoid getting hurt."

At last, when Shu Yu's legs were about to cramp from standing, Kang Lai finally nodded in satisfaction and said, "Good boy." His enormous palm reached out towards Shu Yu, with short, thick fingers and a broad hand... The nails were worn down to a grotesquely twisted state, exuding an invisible authority...

Shu Yu turned his head with a mournful expression: "Yesterday, Chi Chuanle was in our dormitory, and he completely destroyed the entire table, and also broke the personal terminal..."

The man stared at him for a moment, then with a snap, activated a light screen, checked it against him, and asked, "Shu Yu from Class 8, Year 3?" His voice was rough and low, resembling the sound of a steel blade being dragged across a whetstone.

... ...

The sound of revelry shakes the heavens

As soon as Shu Yu stepped out the door, he stopped in his tracks. He silently blamed himself, realizing that he had clearly heard Chi Chuanle mention that Kang Lai had already intervened in this matter, yet he had not considered that the security team would come directly to conduct a search.

Another leaf floated down gently, and as it passed by this leaf, it suddenly came to a halt

While he was not paying attention, the energy in his body began to flow in a single direction. The energy was drawn along, forming a vortex at the center of his chest. The vortex moved slowly, resembling a black hole, drawing in some of the surrounding energy.

He vaguely felt that there was something in his chest, but that feeling was particularly unclear and hazy; when he tried to pursue it carefully, it vanished.

In the small grove, the tree trunks twist and turn as they reach towards the sky, forming a lush canopy overhead. Sunlight filters through the gaps in the canopy, casting dappled light on the youth's body, intertwining with the shadows beside him to create a complex and intricate pattern

In that moment, both Shu Yu and the book stirred within their bodies

The original gravity of Moonstar is only one-sixth that of Earth, and it lacks an atmosphere, making it impossible to provide normal living conditions for humans. Currently, the visibility of sunny days, rainy weather, dawn, and dusk is all due to the regulation of an artificial canopy.

Shu Yu raised his head, looking at Kang Lai with a forced smile, and asked, "Is there anything else you would like to ask, Teacher Kang Lai?"

Suddenly, a massive shadow loomed over his head. Shu Yu looked up and saw Kang Lai's intimidating face staring directly at him, with a gaze as cold and rigid as stone. Although he had considered last night whether this person was cold-hearted, seeing such a gaze now made Shu Yu involuntarily shiver

Kang Lai nodded thoughtfully and waved his hand to let him go

Shu Yu calmly met his gaze, nodding while inwardly grumbling: I clearly reported my name last night!

Kang Lai did not expect him to know so much, and his eyes widened in surprise—his expression resembled that of a predatory shark, making him appear even more terrifying—he relentlessly pressed for details, including what Shu Yu and Chi Chuan Le had said at that time, and the exact words that Ding Hong Wei had interjected. He repeatedly interrogated Shu Yu, leaving not a single word unexamined. Shu Yu felt confident and fully cooperated with his inquiries, racking his brain and holding nothing back. This included what Shu Yu and Chi Chuan Le had said at that time, and the exact words that Ding Hong Wei had interjected. He repeatedly interrogated Shu Yu, leaving not a single word unexamined. Shu Yu felt confident and fully cooperated with his inquiries, racking his brain and holding nothing back.

Moreover, he touched his own chest! With this mysterious heart, although it seemed that a considerable price must be paid, he also gained the possibility of further evolution

About ten adult men dressed in khaki work uniforms came up from the end of the stairs, stepping on various pieces of trash on the ground, and entered each dormitory in turn. Continuous noises emanated from the dormitories, whether it was tidying up or rummaging through items inside was unclear. These individuals moved in and out of the empty dormitories without even glancing at him.

In summary, be mentally prepared! Subsequently, his thoughts quickly shifted as he prepared to go downstairs to rummage through the library's management office, hoping to find some proof of Old Ding's identity

Morn Star was once referred to as the Moon. It is a satellite of Earth, orbiting around the Earth, yet it always presents only one face towards the Earth. The Seventh Intermediate Academy is located on the far side of Morn Star, where the home planet is not visible.

In the woods, countless phantoms of the dark night are dancing, graceful and measured, evoking thoughts of the courtly nobles' waltz. The young man stands beneath these phantoms, his posture straight, with a bright light shimmering in his eyes

He is able to control objects within approximately one hundred meters around him, with a size of about one cubic meter, whether they are individual objects or multiple small combinations. If he is willing to expend an immense amount of mental effort, he can control them with extreme precision

The sweat on his body had completely dried, but he felt in good spirits and showed no signs of a cold. He lay on the ground, placing his hand on his chest. It seemed as though there was an additional heart here, beating in parallel with the one on the left. However, the heart at the center of his chest felt more powerful, and Shu Yu could distinctly sense its subtle connection with every part of his body

Shu Yu looked at Chi Chuan Le's back and let out a slight sigh. Chuan Le has not yet adapted to his own changes, so he still plays around with him as before. ... When he clearly and thoroughly understands the difference in status between them ... ... the favored child of heaven and the weakling. ... ... At that time, would he still be willing to walk alongside him?

... ...

Shu Yu seemed oblivious as he continued practicing his punches. If there were a pair of eyes capable of seeing everything at that moment, they would witness countless streams of energy slowly converging from the space around him, being absorbed through every pore of Shu Yu's body, continuing to gather until they finally coalesced at his chest, where they were absorbed by a "black hole".

It suddenly came to a stop

He spoke very kindly, but his attitude was firm. Shu Yu was no fool; he knew what he should do at that moment, so he nodded and went downstairs without taking anything with him

He meticulously dissected and analyzed the exchange he had just had with Conley, confirming that there were no discrepancies, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief
