Chapter 007: Thor's Hammer Fist
Teacher Bofi shrugged his shoulders and remained silent
"Hmph, you have also been deceived by him!" Teacher Kate said with dissatisfaction. Bunch packed his belongings and stuffed them into his backpack, preparing to leave: "Teacher Kate, I want to remind you that you are, after all, a teacher at a secondary institution, and you should treat all students equally without any bias"
"Kid, do you think that by siding with Zheng Jueqi, we really won't dare to touch you? Brother Senggeluo will be discharged from the hospital soon, and if he returns to school and sees you wandering around safely, we will be in big trouble. So, kid, although I really don't want to offend Zheng Jueqi, I am even more afraid of Brother Senggeluo, so I have no choice but to take action against you, hehe..." He chuckled sinisterly, causing Duan Tian to frown repeatedly: "Want to fight? Fine. Let's go to the simulation station."
Seeing Duan Tian being forced to retreat step by step, the opponent smugly said: "Eli Chade, there's no need to exert yourself preparing your 'Thor's Hammer Fist', I can handle this kid all by myself"
Duan Tian was infuriated by the disdain in his tone. At that moment, Achilles timely advised him: "If in battle your speed is inferior to that of your opponent, then the best way to handle it is to slow down your opponent's speed..."
With a "thud," he was caught off guard, and his opponent's fist struck his face. A salty, metallic taste filled his mouth as Duan Tian staggered back a few steps. Shaking his head, he licked with his tongue, realizing that several of his teeth had already become loose
Duan Tian recalled the experience from earlier, feeling a chill run down his back. If he were to fail, the next outcome would likely be quite tragic
Remember the weakness I taught you! The voice of Achilles echoed in his mind. Upon hearing his call, Duan Tian, who had initially felt anxious about facing many opponents alone, suddenly relaxed. This pleased Achilles greatly: perhaps this seemingly frail child was destined to be a warrior!
Such an opponent, even if Duan Tian had not been injured, would not be a match, let alone now
What seemed like a nonsensical remark suddenly gave Duan Tian a sense of clarity. He straightened his body abruptly, no longer fearing the opponent's attack. He allowed a punch to land on his shoulder, causing Duan Tian to sway to one side, while the opponent was taken aback, not expecting the punch to actually connect. His speed was swift, but naturally, the force behind his punch was considerably diminished.
Duan Tian inexplicably became a "key training target" just like the little genius Sophia. After coming out of the principal's office, Teacher Banchi patted him on the shoulder and said: "Duan Tian, train hard, I believe you can do it! If you have any issues, just come to me"
Richard gave him no chance to catch his breath. With a powerful strike, brilliance erupted like fireworks, as his massive fists, glowing with light, charged forward with great force. Each move was executed with a fierce momentum. He twisted his body, with the point of power in each strike originating from his waist and abdomen. His arms appeared soft and powerless, akin to chains tethering a meteor hammer, driven by his body. His fists truly became meteor hammers, ruthlessly smashing towards Duan Tian, enveloped in a burst of light.

Only true warriors can make the right judgments in urgent situations
Duan Tian pushed back with his shoulder, releasing a portion of his strength. Seizing this fleeting opportunity, he firmly pressed down on the fist that was still resting on his shoulder, yanking it sharply towards himself. Then, with his right hand, he clenched the evolved battle armor into a fist and delivered a powerful downward strike directly onto that weak point
"What do you mean, I have a bias against him?" Teacher Kate seemed to jump up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "Don't go, clarify your words..." Teacher Bongi walked briskly, too lazy to get entangled with this fat woman
In that fleeting moment, Duan Tian's body swayed like a willow branch in the wind, rising into the air as if inspired by a sudden insight, spinning like a windmill, his body inverted with his head down and feet up, perfectly evading the ambush from the two behind him. At the same time, the enemy's fist from the front just grazed over the top of his head. Without a second thought, Duan Tian, just as he had done when defeating Sengluo last time, pointed two fingers at that weak spot, successfully avoiding the ambush from behind while simultaneously dodging the enemy's punch.
Suddenly, four individuals hurriedly surrounded Duan Tian. The leader among them was none other than Avesen, who had been cautious of Duan Tian in the school cafeteria but was driven away by Zheng Jueqi that day.
Duan Tian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and swiftly darted into the woods. Richard was momentarily taken aback, but quickly followed him in. Avicen stood outside the woods; although the area was not large, it was heavily shadowed, and he had no idea where Duan Tian might be hiding to launch a surprise attack. After hesitating for a moment, Avicen ultimately decided not to follow.
Duan Tian changed his assessment of him: this guy's cultivation is definitely above that oily and pretentious Sengluo!
The opponent let out a cry of pain as he clutched his right arm and retreated. Avicen cursed and asked him, "How are you?" "Not good, it seems like I have a fracture..."
The middle-aged overweight female teacher stubbornly refuses to believe: "Special field? Hmph, that kid is quite skilled at cheating. He works at a private pharmacy, and I think I need to remind the owner of that store to be careful that his medicines aren't being stolen by that kid."
The last time he defeated Sengro, his power was still quite weak. Now, after a night of intense training, although his spirit is extremely fatigued, his physical strength has reached a terrifying level. Last time, with just a single finger, he merely shattered Sengro's evolutionary armor, but this time, not only did he break his opponent's evolutionary armor with a single finger, he even left a deep fingerprint on the back of the opponent's hand
Duan Tian could only use the evolution armor on his hands to protect his vital points, slowly retreating while constantly searching for an opportunity to counterattack. Amidst the opponent's relentless barrage of attacks, he finally discerned the weakness: it was located at the upper end of the right arm, near the shoulder. Duan Tian was confident that he could shatter that section of the evolution armor with a single punch. The problem now was that the opponent's speed was simply too fast, with one punch following another, leaving him no openings to strike at that weakness
This opponent is much faster than the previous one. Duan Tian, having only experienced that profound realm with Achilles' assistance, can only grasp it through experience without the support of actual training. He could barely manage against a slower opponent, but this new opponent is exceptionally quick, with three or two feints in each strike. Before Duan Tian could identify the weaknesses of the opponent's evolved battle armor, he was struck by the final real blow. Fortunately, due to his training last night, his physical strength has significantly increased; otherwise, he would not have been able to withstand even a single punch.

I understand. Richard, dissatisfied, responded with a grunt during the battle
He rubbed his injured shoulder with his hand, and thoughts of the healing potions in the apothecary came to mind. Now he understood why those potions were so expensive, yet many people still purchased them. At this moment, if there were a healing potion available, Duan Tian would likely be willing to sacrifice his entire fortune in exchange.
With a beautiful somersault, Duan Tian stood facing the remaining two opponents. The one with significantly higher cultivation pushed his companion aside with a grunt, and his fists came crashing together with great force.
In such circumstances, the aggressive and forceful style of the Thunder God's hammer strikes has evidently become a burden, limiting one's performance. It would be better to abandon the evolved combat techniques; Richard's strength far surpasses that of Duan Tian, and exercising caution while maneuvering still presents a significant chance of victory.
Avicenna considered himself the leader; when his subordinates took action, he naturally stood by and watched. In reality, if these three individuals were unable to handle Duan Tian, his involvement would be of no use.
He was punched in the face, and three of his teeth were loosened. The injury on his shoulder also throbbed painfully; although he could still move somewhat, his agility had significantly diminished
However, another person standing nearby intercepted him. After all, the opponent was a senior in a higher grade, having trained in the evolution armor for much longer than he had. With a series of feints and attacks, alternating between left and right, Duan Tian was immediately bewildered and could not find the opponent's weakness.
Avicenna shouted softly from behind: "Richard, be careful, do not casually damage public property!" Engaging in a private fight is minor, as long as one is not caught by the school on the spot, it is not a big issue. However, damaging public property is different; it leaves behind evidence. If the school decides to investigate, even the spy satellites overhead can capture everything clearly, down to one's own nose hairs. The large pit on the ground is manageable; later, I can quickly find a few classmates to fill it in. However, if trees are damaged, replanting them is not something that can be resolved in a short time.
In that moment, the three individuals each shouted their own true words, and three dazzling beams of light surrounded Duan Tian. They were all senior students, and the least among them had an evolved battle armor that already enveloped his right shoulder. The one with the highest cultivation had his upper body protected by the evolved battle armor, which was no less impressive than that of Sengro.
Duan Tianyi looked up and realized that he had unknowingly walked to a secluded area within the academy. Surrounding him was a dense forest of tall coniferous trees, their thick needles resembling layers of heavy blue cotton blankets, isolating this open space from the rest of the academy. Behind him, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard.
Avicen saw his subordinate force Duan Tian back with a single move and laughed triumphantly: "Hahaha, Richard is one of the top twenty experts on our school's campus ranking, and he is about to advance to a Level 4 Evolutionary Warrior. I specifically brought him here today to deal with you, this arrogant little brat, hm!"
The unparalleled war god Achilles! With a call from Duan Tianyi, a swirl of milky white light surged from his heart, enveloping his right hand in a rotation, and a semi-transparent milky white evolution battle armor glove appeared on his palm. Achilles' voice echoed in his mind: "I will lend it to you once more, but remember, you owe me a grand feast..."
Duan Tian seemed to be playing hide and seek with him, darting in and out of the bushes. At one moment he was at the treetops, at another behind the trunk, and then swinging from a branch. Richard was so provoked by him that he nearly caught him several times, but each time Duan Tian cleverly used the terrain to escape.
Since the beginning of school, Duan Tian has always been an ordinary student, and no teacher has ever cared for him in this way. Teacher Bangqi's enthusiasm has moved him quite a bit: "I understand, Teacher. I will definitely work hard..."
Hahaha! Avicen burst into laughter; this place is quite remote, and few people come here. Even if students pass by and see the campus bullies, led by Avicen, they would choose to take a detour.
Achilles calmly asked him: "If you were to switch places with Richard in that situation just now, how would you respond?" Duan Tian thought for a moment: "I would give up using evolutionary combat techniques and engage the enemy with ordinary combat skills."
Duan Tianyi clenched his fist and delivered an uppercut, shattering his evolution armor with a loud crack
The entire technique is executed seamlessly, leaving no room for criticism
With a clang, the semi-transparent evolution armor emitted a metallic sound, and a bluish-white light radiated from the center of his fist. In just a moment, it transformed into a dazzling brilliance. The light continuously ebbed and flowed between his chest and abdomen, growing in accordance with the rhythm of his breathing
Duàn Tiān was incessantly teasing Richard, driving him to the brink of anger, yet he dared not act out in school. His Mjölnir-like punches were immensely powerful, but in such a setting, he found his hands and feet bound, unable to unleash their full potential. Instead of demonstrating the strength he was capable of, it became a constraint on him.
Hey! With a loud shout, the last opponent twisted his legs and took a few quick steps before suddenly leaping into the air. He spread his body like a large bow, hovering above Duan Tian's head. His body tensed like a spring, curling into a large shrimp shape, using the strength of his waist and legs to propel his upper body. The force was transmitted to his arms, with his left hand supporting his right fist. The brilliance on his right fist surged instantly, striking down from above—just as if his fist were a hammer, and his body was the arm wielding that great hammer.
Duan Tian let out a light laugh beside a tree, and Richard immediately swung a punch at him. However, halfway through the punch, he had to retract it, for the tree next to Duan Tian—Richard was well aware that it was best not to leave any evidence of fighting at school. The stern and unyielding disciplinary director was like a mother tiger, and the principal was even more of a smiling tiger—if they were truly caught, it would be a fate worse than death.
At this moment, Duan Tian had no mood to listen to his explanation of evolutionary combat techniques. He hurriedly asked, "Don't say so much for now, what should I do?" Achilles snorted, "I have already helped you once; this time, you must rely on yourself to get through."
Duan Tianmeng suddenly realized: this was not a fair competition; there were four opponents, and there was no need for him to discuss any martial ethics with them. As soon as Achilles finished speaking, Duan Tianmeng charged forward without hesitation
"What? The principal actually designated that useless person as a key training target?" In the office, Kate and the librarian shouted at a room full of colleagues: "Is he out of his mind? That idiot's potential value is less than one hundred!" Teacher Bofi, browsing interstellar news on the interstellar network, casually replied: "The principal's reasoning is that Duan Tian possesses certain talents in specific areas."
Ah! Avicen heard a terrible scream from the woods, and he shuddered in fear: this guy truly deserved to have defeated the boss of Sengluo, as he was so difficult to deal with that even Richard was no match for him. He was afraid that Duan Tian would come out to trouble him, and he could not care less about the two companions who were still filling in the deep pit; he turned and ran.
With a crisp sound of "pa," the opponent let out a cry of agony, as his entire shoulder was dislocated from the blow. He staggered back, his arm swinging uncontrollably, drenched in sweat from the pain.
"I will say it again, find his weakness..." Achilles shouted. Duan Tian also felt helpless: "His speed is too fast; I can't find his weakness before his moves have already reached me"
Privileged students never truly concern themselves with the lives and deaths of those commoners and quasi-citizen students. When incidents occur, they merely need their families to intervene, and matters can be easily resolved. Over the years, there have been countless conflicts between the privileged class and the ordinary class, yet there has never been a report of a privileged individual being sentenced. This is the reality of society
Achilles shouted in his mind: "Are you still hesitating? Hurry up and act! Are you waiting until he has completed his evolution combat skills before you make your move..."
Duan Tianling leaped into the air. If it had not been for last night's training, which had significantly increased his strength, this action would have been impossible for him to accomplish with his previous core strength. However, now it felt effortless and natural, as if everything had come together seamlessly.
Duan Tianyi rushed out of the school in one breath, as the translucent milky-white crystal evolution armor slowly merged into his body. He gasped for air; the previous battle, facing three opponents in succession, especially the last one, Richard, was truly formidable. If it weren't for his reservations and the fact that Duan Tianyi had seized upon his weakness, restricting his performance with the terrain, it would certainly be him lying on the ground at this moment.
... ...
The opponent delivered a punch, and the fist, enveloped in the crystalline evolution armor, suddenly doubled in size. A surge of brilliance flowed within the evolution armor, and the tangible energy created a fierce wind that struck his face, causing a sharp pain.
The opponent's techniques are elusive and unpredictable, with left and right punches delivered at an extremely fast speed. At times, there are hooks, at other times, jabs, and after a flurry of straight punches like a violent storm, a sudden uppercut may emerge.
Although Duan Tian was nervous, he remained calm. His eyes were fixed intently on the enemy in front of him, and the feeling of having defeated Sengluo at that time resurfaced in his mind. With his mental focus fully concentrated, his opponent's movements indeed appeared much slower to him, though it was still far from the slowed speed he experienced with Achilles' help that day
Teacher Bangqi returned to the office, only to be stopped by Teacher Kate: "Bangqi, are you out of your mind?" Teacher Bangqi glanced at Kate lightly, pushed aside her arm blocking the doorway, and entered the office, saying: "Duan Tian's strength is astonishing, and I can assure you that he has not injected any substances."
Although Duan Tian was hit by a punch, he still defeated his opponent. Before he could celebrate, a surge of overwhelming power rushed towards him, immediately pressing down on him like a *map* and making it hard for him to breathe
At a critical moment, Duan Tian discovered the weakness of his opponent's evolved battle armor. Unlike Sengluo, the weakness of this opponent's evolved battle armor was on the back of the hand. At that moment, he threw a punch with the back of his hand facing upward. Meanwhile, Duan Tian sensed that two enemies behind him had already lunged at him, one of whom was the strongest opponent. If he were to be struck by both of their attacks simultaneously, even if Duan Tian managed to defeat the enemy in front of him, this battle would end in his utter defeat.
Duan Tian silently approached Richard from behind, and suddenly let out a loud roar. In the heightened tension of battle, Richard instinctively threw a punch. Halfway through the punch, he realized there was a tree behind him. This moment of hesitation allowed Duan Tian to ghost-like maneuver around the tree to his other side—he had already discerned that the weakness of Richard's evolution armor was under his armpit. The punch had not yet retracted, and with his arm raised, the weakness was fully exposed.

"Achilles, is my body alright?" Duan Tian still felt somewhat uneasy. Achilles chuckled, "Rest assured, with me, Achilles, supervising your training, there will be no issues. However... it seems you have an urgent problem that needs to be addressed right now"
The voice of Achilles echoed in his mind: "Indeed, this is the true power of evolutionary combat techniques. You see, this young man has exceptionally long arms; I estimate that if his hands were to hang down, he could touch his knees. Moreover, his core strength is substantial—combining these innate advantages, he has created this formidable evolutionary combat technique, 'Thunder God Hammer Fist.' This is the essence of evolutionary combat techniques, applicable to everyone: there is no best, only what is most suitable."
"What a naive fellow," he said, waving his hand as the three people around him rushed forward.
Duan Tianxin shouted in his heart: "Achilles, help me just this once!" However, Achilles coldly refused him: "Kid, you must understand that in battle, apart from yourself, no one can be relied upon. Do not be afraid, go ahead; you are just a warrior, and you can only grow through combat!"
Outside the woods, Avicen looked anxiously at the deep pit on the ground and said to the other two, "How are you? If everything is fine, come over and help fill in the pit..."
Duan Tian did not dare to confront directly, and in a flurry, he retreated several steps to make way. With a loud "bang," his opponent's punch struck the ground fiercely, creating a half-meter deep pit in the high-strength synthetic material floor. A gust of air surged forth, and Duan Tian was pushed back another step by the overwhelming force, the airflow slicing through his clothes and causing a sharp pain in his abdomen.
Achilles sighed: "I am not mistaken; you are born a warrior..."
Duan Tian continuously dodged, and when his opponent let down their guard for just a moment, the brilliance from his fist grazed a coniferous tree, instantly toppling half of it. Duan Tian was taken aback: this is the power of evolutionary combat skills
Duan Tian turned around and saw that Richard, the most powerful among them, had a layer of dark blue light enveloping his fists, making them appear like two enormous iron hammers. He was advancing towards Duan Tian step by step, and with each of his movements, the waves of light surrounding his body fluctuated continuously, exerting immense pressure on Duan Tian.
