Devouring all things: I possess the energy of chaos.

At dawn, a pale light appeared in the sky, and the first rays of sunlight shone through the lush foliage onto the ground.

The entrance of Yanyang No. 2 Middle School.

Some of the high school students walked in groups, chatting and laughing along the way.

Some went alone, walking straight through the school gate.

Mo Hong was one of these lone travelers.

As usual, he didn't go to the classroom to review humanities subjects, but instead headed to the martial arts training room.

After all, for those applying to Budo University, humanities scores only account for 20% of the total score.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the martial arts room, I glanced at the dozens of people on the first floor who were currently training.

Mo Hong then headed towards the second floor, a place he had never been before.

"Although these people are not particularly talented, they are all extremely hardworking."

Mo Hong even recognized several familiar figures among these people.

One of the girls, dressed in a thin shirt, picked up a soft sword and kept waving it around. She was Ye Xin, the only girl in their class whose physical fitness had reached level 3.

Mo Hong had heard about her family background; her parents were both junior high school teachers, which was better than Mo Hong's.

Mo Hong quickly moved from the first floor to the second floor.

The second floor is the training ground for the elite class. Now that he's been transferred to the elite class, Mo Hong definitely wants to experience it.

The second floor is different from the first floor; it consists of a series of secret cultivation chambers.

There are hundreds of secret rooms, and the doors indicate whether anyone is inside.

At this moment, red lights are displayed at the entrances of more than thirty secret rooms, indicating that there are people inside.

“Building a single training room costs at least several hundred thousand federal dollars, and if the configuration requirements are higher, it can cost over a million.”

After sighing to himself, Mo Hong chose an empty room and entered using his fingerprint.

[Mo Hong, a student in the elite class, has been successfully verified.]

After entering, Mo Hong took a quick look around and estimated that the interior of the secret room was only about ten square meters in size, and the training equipment inside was quite complete.

"Start training!"

After taking a long sword from the armory, Mo Hong began his morning practice.

Mo Hong moved around the secret room, sometimes thrusting his sword horizontally, sometimes leaping up and slashing vertically, his movements wide and powerful.

……

Time passed slowly, and three hours quickly went by.

At this moment, Mo Hong was drenched in sweat and his body was steaming with heat. He stopped and put the long sword into the armory.

[Swordsmanship progress +1]

[Swordsmanship level: Elite (2/10)+]

Seeing the scene unfold before him, Mo Hong smiled.

"Gene awakening enhances a person's comprehension. Now that I have awakened the sword spirit, it will also enhance my understanding of swordsmanship in an invisible way. It is indeed so."

He frowned slightly, glanced at the time above the secret room, and realized that it was almost noon.

Let's practice here for now.

Mo Hong walked out of the secret room and noticed a few scattered people around him, who had obviously just finished training.

Among them, Mo Hong actually saw a familiar face: Yuan Feng!

Yuan Feng was chatting and laughing with a tall, thin boy, but it was obvious to anyone with eyes that the tall, thin boy was in the dominant position.

Seeing someone else emerge from the secret room, the people around couldn't help but glance at them.

"Oh, another new student has joined the elite class?"

"I wonder if this guy has reached the threshold in terms of strength or if his genes have awakened?"

A few people stood at a distance, whispering among themselves.

Yuan Feng had obviously noticed the commotion, and his pupils contracted when he saw one of the figures clearly.

Mo Hong?

When Yuan Feng thought of this name, he couldn't believe it himself.

"Isn't Mo Hong's physical fitness at the peak of level 2? How did he get into the elite class?"

"Could it be—this guy has awakened his elemental powers?"

Upon considering this possibility, Yuan Feng's expression turned somewhat grim.

Keep in mind, his genes haven't awakened yet!

The elite class has over forty people, almost all of whom have awakened their elemental powers. There are only two people like him who have only reached the required strength!

"Sigh, I'm annoyed as I am, but we're both from Class 3 after all. Since he's seen me, I should still go up and say hello."

Yuan Feng sighed, thinking that Mo Hong was lucky to have awakened.

"Mo Hong, I didn't expect you to be in the elite class too. You've been hiding your true abilities!"

Yuan Feng stepped forward and offered his congratulations with a smile.

"Luckily, luckily, we were all in Class 3 before, so let's help each other out in the future."

Although they hadn't interacted much in Class 3 before, Mo Hong greeted Yuan Feng with a smile when he saw Yuan Feng taking the initiative to be friendly.

After a brief chat, Yuan Feng took the initiative to leave.

The people around him, upon seeing that Mo Hong was from Class 3, instantly lost interest and left.

Mo Hong didn't think much of the others' reactions, assuming they just looked down on those who had been promoted from the regular class.

Mo Hong then went to the cafeteria and ate a martial arts nutrition meal to replenish the energy consumed during training.

……

One p.m.

Elite Classroom.

Dozens of people had already gathered together, and Mo Hong was among them.

This is a martial arts technique instruction class.

The instructor in front of the podium was a muscular man in a black martial arts uniform, named Bai Tianbu.

As an instructor in an elite class, one must be proficient in all kinds of weapons, such as swords, knives, spears, and axes, reaching an elite or even master level.

Bai Tianbu said calmly, "Everyone, take the weapons you need from the armory and begin training."

Without further ado, Mo Hong quickly followed the elite class members to retrieve their weapons.

Afterwards, everyone found their own place and began their training.

During the day, Shi would walk among dozens of people with his hands behind his back, instructing them on the correct posture.

"Keep your body flat, raise your grip on the sword by an inch, and use your torso bones to generate power!"

"A knife is a weapon of killing; its movements, whether drawn or drawn, must be bold and decisive. How can one be hesitant and indecisive?"

"When using a gun, you need to be able to thrust, and you need to be flexible and adaptable in your use of it. Don't swing it so stiffly."

"..."

Many students in the elite class are geniuses who have awakened their elemental powers. Those who enter the class generally come from well-off families, and their physical abilities are absolutely top-notch in the school.

However, mastering martial arts skills is not something that can be achieved overnight, which is why many people are only at the beginner level when using a certain weapon.

"Not bad, Shi Tianhao, your swordsmanship has improved again. At this rate, it won't be long before your swordsmanship becomes elite."

Standing before a young man in a white martial arts uniform, Bai Tianbu finally smiled and offered his comments.

Everyone turned to look, including Mo Hong.

"I didn't expect Shi Tianhao's physical abilities to be superior to everyone else's, and even his swordsmanship is almost at the elite level. He truly deserves to be the number one in the elite class!"

A short-haired girl next to Mo Hong stared wide-eyed at Shi Tianhao, her gaze filled with a mixture of admiration and curiosity.

"Look at Pang Xiong's face. He's been second to none for ages. If he sees this, he'll probably start clamoring to challenge Shi Tianhao to a duel again."

One of them pointed to the horse-faced boy not far away.

The horse-faced boy, Pang Xiong, stared at the boy in the white martial arts uniform and muttered to himself, "This guy, I was already a step behind him in physical fitness, but I didn't expect his martial arts skills to improve so quickly. After class, I'll find him to spar with again and ask him how he trains."

……

As for Mo Hong at this moment, after hearing Bai Tianbu's evaluation, he also weighed it in his mind.

"The top student in the elite class? His swordsmanship is almost at the elite level?"

"Perhaps right now, the only thing I lack is physical fitness."

Unlike the surprised reactions of the crowd, Mo Hong remained calm and continued honing his swordsmanship in the corner, seemingly oblivious to everyone else.

This was just a minor incident during the class, and most people were only slightly shocked, but continued with their work.

Some people were even psychologically stimulated by this, and their training speed increased.

During this time, Bai Tianbu also came to Mo Hong to give him guidance. In order not to attract attention, Mo Hong displayed his swordsmanship, which was close to that of an elite.

But even this made Bai Tianbu look at Mo Hong differently, and his gaze softened considerably.

"A new student? He has a good talent for swordsmanship. With more practice, he should be able to improve."

After pointing out a few shortcomings to Mo Hong, Bai Tianbu left.

Soon, the afternoon's instruction session came to an end.
