We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 2 Divine Matter

"Teacher Zhang, is there something you need from me?"

"Hmm." Zhang Xianlong nodded, looking at the student in front of him with increasing satisfaction.

As the overall environment gradually stabilizes, the requirements for talent are becoming increasingly higher.

This student was originally excellent in both appearance and academic performance, ranking among the top students. His only weakness was his fighting ability, but now that weakness has been overcome.

"Here's the thing, in two weeks, our Bozhou City will be holding an eight-school joint martial arts event. Your homeroom teacher and I have discussed it and would like you to participate. I wonder if you would be willing to win an honor for the class?"

Shen Bailian instinctively wanted to refuse, as he had no intention of participating in the competition. However, when he heard Zhang Xianlong's next sentence, he immediately changed his mind.

"In previous years, the top three students not only received bonus points on the college entrance examination, but also had the opportunity to use the highest-standard medical pod for free."

In an instant, Shen Bailian's heart burned with passion, and he answered without hesitation, "I do!"

The medical pod, a cutting-edge technology, is hailed as a boon to the new era. All kinds of difficult and complicated diseases are like ants in its presence, collapsing at the slightest touch.

There are even rumors that the most advanced medical pods can regenerate bones, revive the dead, and repair severed limbs.

Most importantly, with the medical pod, my father, who was in a wheelchair, can stand up again.

"Alright, alright, since you're willing to agree, I'll register you right away. If you actually get a good ranking, your homeroom teacher and I will be proud, and the school won't treat you unfairly."

Zhang Xianlong smiled and turned to leave with light steps.

On the way home~
On the streets, maglev cars, about one centimeter off the ground, come and go. In this new era, controlled nuclear fusion has been achieved, and electric vehicles have completely replaced gasoline-powered cars.

Above the city, the weather shield acted like a lid, covering the entire city and shielding it from the intense heat brought by the double-day eclipse.

……

Boom~!

Thousands of meters in the air, there was a huge blue bird shadow, about thirty meters long, with blue feathers that shimmered with an eerie light and sharp claws and teeth that were bright white.

Like a fighter jet, it sped past with a deafening sonic boom.

Behind it, two warriors clad in armor walked through the air, slashing out with sharp blades.

"Brother, doesn't this beast look familiar? I feel like I've killed it many times before." Bai Ming frowned, the more he looked at the beast in front of him, the more familiar it seemed.

"Who cares about all that? Let's hurry up and kill this beast, otherwise if he storms into Bozhou City, we'll both be in deep trouble!"

As he spoke, Bai Qi's chest heaved violently as he fully activated his qi and blood. His already rapid speed surged again, and with a boom, he broke the sound barrier.

On the sidewalk of Fandou Street, Shen Bailian and Wei Peng jogged side by side, chatting.

"Are you really prepared to dedicate your life to martial arts?" Wei Peng frowned.

"Or else?"

“I understand your desire to change your social class, but with your excellent grades, you could easily get into a research institute. The path of martial arts is too dangerous and the competition is fierce. Your family can't provide you with much support…”

"Have you ever considered the possibility that I might be a genius, one in a million?" Shen Bailian smiled slightly, looking at his own panel.

"I believe you, how could I not believe you?" Wei Peng stopped in his tracks, replying dismissively. Suddenly.

"Sing~!"

A piercing scream suddenly rang in my ears, like a thunderclap at close range, deafeningly loud.

The high-frequency sound vibrations shattered the glass of skyscrapers on the street not far away, and then the glass exploded outwards with the strong wind caused by the Azure Scales Stepping on Snow.

Some of the projectiles struck maglev cars on the road, while others shattered the bodies of ordinary people.
Shen Bailian immediately felt a pain in his ear and frowned in discomfort. He looked up and saw bullets, resembling red chains, hitting a dark shadow that blotted out the sky. With a series of bangs, they were deflected.

"It's Azure Scale Snow Treader! How could such a strange beast suddenly appear here!" Shen Bailian nimbly dodged the flying shards of glass, exclaiming as he looked at the extremely obvious bright white claws.

"Azure Scales Treading on Snow?"

Wei Peng was somewhat unfamiliar with this strange beast, because it was not a beast from the vicinity of Bozhou City at all.

"Azure Scales Treading Snow, an E-level exotic beast near Chang'an City. Its wingspan can reach 25 meters when it is an adult, and its burst speed can reach a terrifying Mach 3.6. Its azure feathers are comparable to carat alloy, and its most distinctive feature is its pair of claws that are as bright as snow."

Shen Bailian recited the data of Qinglin Treading Snow fluently, but what puzzled him was why the wingspan of the Qinglin Treading Snow in the sky reached more than 30 meters.

"Mach 3.6!" Wei Peng exclaimed in surprise.

What terrifying speed!

To put it another way, in just one second, the time it takes for a normal person to blink two or three times, Qinglin Taxue had already disappeared 1224 meters away. This speed is simply breathtaking.

"You beast! How dare you act so presumptuously here!"

Suddenly, accompanied by an angry roar, a golden figure appeared above Qinglin Taxue's head in an instant.

boom! ! !
The air vibrated violently, creating ripples. Under the terrifying force and the sudden attack, Qinglin Taxue had no time to react. Her neck was blasted off, and her body crashed into the ground like a cannonball, creating a deep crater with cracks appearing.

The blue feathers fell like drifting willow catkins.

"This, that's it?" Wei Peng stared blankly at the disappearing golden figure for a moment, then immediately reacted, his eyes shining like light bulbs: "That was definitely a martial artist at the Ascending Tower (Transcendent) Realm. Only such a powerful martial artist could kill an E-level alien beast with a single punch."

Shen Bailian was also thrilled, his blood boiling.

"One day, I will surely become a Transcendent Realm martial artist who can walk on air. No, my talent is extraordinary; I will surely become an unparalleled deity..."

Shen Bailian silently told himself that with the panel in place, he had the confidence.

"Old Shen, what are you thinking about? Here, keep this as a souvenir."

Wei Peng held a few green feathers he had picked up, and he handed the largest one, which was shimmering with a faint light, to Shen Bailian.

"Thanks."

Shen Bailian smiled, took the blue feather in his hand, and was about to put it in his pocket when he suddenly froze, because a panel suddenly popped up and displayed unprecedented golden characters.
