High School Student with Immortal Race System

Chapter 51: Return to School and the New PE Teacher

Sponsored

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

These past few days, Yang Shen had been diligently practicing his Cultivation, training his boxing, and watering his plants.

He was living the retired life of an old cadre ahead of schedule.

The "Window Spirit Field" was starting to look more and more proper. Yang Mo and Yang Man had also begun to help with its daily care, even studying up on the subject, while Yang Shen only needed to cast his Magic on it each day.

According to the Ancestral Lineage Spiritual Record, his two younger sisters’ Hidden Talent was in "Arrays," not "Spirit Plants," but most girls liked flowers and plants anyway. It was good for them to get familiar with it ahead of time.

As for Lei Lv, he only practiced Cultivation for less than an hour each day, so there were no visible results yet. However, his boxing practice with Yang Shen on the rooftop in the early mornings was starting to look quite impressive.

After three consecutive nights of Cultivation, Yang Shen had made up for his previous deficit. His Qi and Blood Value reached 174, and he solidly stepped into the mid-stage of Bone Training.

Furthermore, with the Buddha Sound Body Refining Technique passively forging his body, his physical stats in any given realm should be infinitely close to the limit for that realm.

Generally speaking, a Qi and Blood Value of 160 was considered the dividing line between the initial and mid-stages, 240 was the boundary between the mid and late stages, and finally, 300 marked the entry into the Marrow Refining Realm.

At his current rate of gaining at least eight points a day, the goal was within sight.

Once in the Marrow Refining Realm, as long as his overall scores weren’t terrible, getting into a Martial Arts University was a sure thing—and he’d even have a decent range of choices.

However, if his goal was the Jianghuai Sports Academy, he was still a long way off. It would be very difficult to get in, at least at the initial stage of Marrow Refining.

As for his Cultivation Side realm, he had a faint feeling that he wasn’t far from the second layer of Qi Cultivation. The levels of the two paths didn’t correspond one-to-one.

He might not even need to reach the Marrow Refining Realm to advance to the second layer of Qi Cultivation. At that point, he would gain Qi Sensitivity, which would be a great help for both his Cultivation and his use of Magic.

Finally, the day before the monthly exams arrived. It was time to go back to school.

Morning sunlight and birdsong flooded through the window. Yang Shen had already changed back into his blue and white school uniform.

To be honest, he usually thought the uniform was ugly as hell, but after not wearing it for ten-odd days, it gave him an unexpected sense of comfort.

Yang Shen said goodbye to his aunt and the four little ones, then set off for school.

At the school gate, the usual bustling army of blue and white was present, but there were also many guards on duty.

A few teachers were spot-checking students, inspecting their bags. Two police officers were also there, their sharp gazes scanning everyone, making the teenagers particularly nervous.

Those who were stopped had their faces stiffen with tension.

It seemed the disturbance caused by the Exotic Realm reactionaries was far from over. Who knew how many more "seeds" were still hidden throughout Jianghuai City and the surrounding provinces.

Technology to detect them was being developed, and plans to organize health checks for all students in batches were underway.

But until then, routine security patrols couldn’t be neglected.

Yang Shen walked in nonchalantly. An officer’s gaze swept over, paused for a moment, and then he actually smiled and waved. "Yang, right? Back to school so soon?"

Yang Shen was puzzled for a moment before recognizing him as one of the two police officers who had held out until the end at the training camp courtyard.

Both officers had performed exceptionally well that day. If they hadn’t held the line after Teacher Zhou Yao was ambushed, it was unlikely the other training camp participants would have survived...

Even if he’d unleashed his full power, he could have only dealt with one enemy at most. He couldn’t have changed the outcome on his own.

He didn’t know the officer’s name, but the officer had probably seen his file and knew who he was.

"The monthly exams are tomorrow. I had to come back."

The officer patted his arm. "What’s past is past. Leave the rest to us and focus on your studies."

Yang Shen nodded.

The officer glanced around, then lowered his voice. "But, uh, don’t go around bragging about the fact you killed someone, okay? It doesn’t look good."

Yang Shen: ???

’Am I some bloodthirsty, ancient demon? What’s there to brag about?!’

’I’m not good at killing, okay?!’

What he didn’t know was that the image of him stabbing the "Giant-mouthed Woman" to death was still unforgettable to the police.

It was too brutal...

When the medical examiner came to collect the body afterward, he kept muttering, "After all these years, I didn’t think I could still learn something new!"

"This technique has a certain romantic flair!"

She looked completely intact, but in reality, her insides were all over the floor and splattered on the wall.

The officer was afraid that after that night, Yang Shen’s mental state might have become unstable, awakening some kind of special fetish...

But in truth, Yang Shen didn’t feel much of anything... He hadn’t even delved into the "why" of it all...

Back in the classroom, just as the school had anticipated, a gang of troublemaking high schoolers instantly surrounded him.

"Yang Shen! What really happened at the training camp?"

"Yeah, the underclassmen are all in an uproar! They said everyone was injured and not a single one has come back to school yet. How are you back?"

"Liu Yuankui is gone too, so we haven’t had martial arts class for three days! It’s been three straight days of academic classes. It’s been awesome!"

"What about Xu Bamboo? Why isn’t she here?"

The crowd chattered away, bombarding him with questions without giving him a chance to answer.

Fortunately, their homeroom teacher, who also taught Chinese, walked in and dispersed the mob, allowing Yang Shen to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

’The twenty thousand yuan in hush money really wasn’t for nothing... Keeping a secret among a bunch of seventeen and eighteen-year-olds is about as hard as stopping Huang Gang from eating shit.’

’They should have paid more!’

’Huh... where’s Huang Gang?’

Yang Shen scanned the room but didn’t see him.

The homeroom teacher walked to the podium and dropped a bombshell:

"Due to adjustments in the teaching schedule, Teacher Liu Yuankui will no longer be the martial arts instructor for Class Six and Class Seven. The school has already arranged for a new teacher who is currently familiarizing himself with the lesson plans. Martial arts class will proceed as scheduled this afternoon."

At a Martial Arts High School, martial arts classes took up at least half the day, so one teacher could handle two classes at most.

This time, Nanliang High School had lost three martial arts teachers at once, two of whom were in the Innate Realm. It was a devastating blow, leaving a huge gap in the entire teaching department.

Six classes were left without an instructor, and there were also many legal and criminal issues involved.

The school was about to explode!

’For students preparing for their college entrance exams, martial arts training is something they absolutely can’t fall behind on. I wonder where they urgently transferred someone from. The teacher said he’s familiarizing himself with the lesson plans... Is he from another school?’

Yang Shen hoped this new teacher would be competent. Liu Yuankui... he had a lot of problems, but his day-to-day teaching ability matched his reputation as a "famous teacher."

Otherwise, so many people wouldn’t have bought Supplements from him.

The academic classes were uneventful. With the monthly exams tomorrow, the teachers’ lectures were very targeted. Yang Shen hadn’t been idle in the days after the training camp ended, so he was able to keep up.

But without Xu Bamboo, things felt a bit empty.

The homeroom teacher also specifically singled him out, telling the other students not to bother him. It was hard to say how effective that was. In any case, during breaks, Yang Shen would slip out for a walk as soon as class ended and only return when the next one started, avoiding being cornered.

When afternoon martial arts class arrived, everyone’s attention shifted again, because the new martial arts teacher... had made his appearance.

On the athletic field, the members of Class Six stood ramrod straight, their curious and scrutinizing gazes fixed on the new teacher before them.

His age... at least fifty! His hair was streaked with gray, and he wore a strange set of work clothes, standing perfectly straight.

And he was disabled... his left sleeve was empty.

The students exchanged speechless glances. ’Did they rehire a retired old teacher from some bygone era?’

’Teacher, teacher, but he didn’t have to be this old! And he’s disabled, missing a hand!’

’How can he compare to Liu Yuankui?’

’He looks so withered. The visual impact is worlds apart from the two-point-three-meter-tall Liu Yuankui... It feels like even if Liu Yuankui gave him a one-hand handicap, he could still kill this guy with a single finger poke.’

With such thoughts in their minds, they inevitably started whispering to each other. The new teacher had yet to establish any authority, and the formation became disorderly.

Just then, the new teacher calmly raised his right hand and made a grasping motion.

"HOLY SHIT! What?!"

From within the formation, a boy suddenly felt a violent pull and flew uncontrollably through the air, landing in front of the new teacher.

The new martial arts teacher said coolly, "Repeat what you just said."

The boy was completely stunned. "Teacher... I..."

The new martial arts teacher roared, "I said, repeat it!"

"I said... I said is this old guy here to ’contribute his remaining heat’..."

The teacher released his grip from a distance, and the boy, free again, fell and sat hard on the ground.

His stern gaze swept over everyone. "My name is Huo Jun, your new teacher. He’s right, I am here to ’contribute my remaining heat,’ because none of you are worthy of being taught by me! But since I am here, you will take this class seriously and follow my every command to the letter!"

"First rule! Ask for permission before you speak!"

A chill ran through everyone’s heart...

It wasn’t just Yang Shen; the others also realized what this meant.

’From the three breakthroughs of the initial realm to Innate, from Innate Perfection to True Gang.’

’He’s actually a master of the Fifth Martial Arts Realm! A great expert of the True Gang Realm?!’

’Did Nanliang High School’s ancestral graves explode?!’

’How many times did Director Liang have to kowtow to get him here?!’
