Shu Han glanced at Chen Chuan standing there, handsome and clear-eyed, and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "This kid looks quite presentable." He reminded, "Junior Chen, be careful. I'm good at close combat and have mastered techniques you haven't yet." Chen Chuan nodded. It was his first meeting with Shu Han, and not knowing the man's thoughts, he suspected the information was meant to confuse him. Regardless of the opponent's strategy, he planned to stick to his own rhythm. He thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any special skills, just a bit better physical condition." "Physical condition?" Shu Han nodded seriously. He believed it. From the information he had received, Zhong Wu's brain was nearly beaten to a pulp, and he was kept alive by medication. The school didn't let him die to avoid bad publicity, but he was almost in a vegetative state with no hope of waking up. Given Zhong Wu's physique, for Chen Chuan to achieve such a result with bare-handed attacks, it was impossible without considerable strength and skill. After exchanging pleasantries, they bowed to each other, stepped back a few paces, and prepared to start. Shu Han, valuing his pride as a senior, would not initiate the attack. He extended a hand, assuming a stance of inquiry, waiting in place. Chen Chuan, not standing on ceremony, thought, "If you won't come, then I'll go." So he strode forward. Shu Han, not tall, felt a sense of oppression as Chen Chuan came straight at him. If he dodged now, Chen Chuan could follow up, and although the space was sufficient for evasion, it would look bad. As a senior, he valued his pride. So instead of retreating, he bunched up his body and stepped forward. Chen Chuan saw Shu Han suddenly appear before him, feeling a sense of disconnection and abruptness, as if no effort was needed to move forward. He immediately realized that the opponent must have used some technique. In combat, there's a pre-judgment of where moves will land and where the enemy is positioned. If the person isn't there, the rhythm could be thrown off immediately. In this situation, it was highly likely that the opponent would try to grapple him. The best choice now would be to leap back and lower his center of gravity, but that might be exactly what the opponent wanted him to do. So he did the opposite, advancing instead of retreating, stepping forward continuously, pressing his center of gravity forward, and exerting force to charge ahead. An unpleasant screeching sound could be heard from the floor as he executed the "Mountain Colliding Body' from the Great Loose Hands technique!This move relies on the attacker's physical advantage to forcefully break through the opponent's stance during the charge. As the saying goes, strength can overcome skill; no matter how exquisite the technique, it ultimately comes down to power, or it's useless. Shu Han indeed had the intention to wait for Chen Chuan's reaction. If Chen Chuan was deceived by his movement and lowered his center of gravity, Shu Han could easily make his force miss by pulling back his hand, and then he could effortlessly grab Chen Chuan's head, ending the match directly. But then he realized something was wrong, suddenly sensing an irresistible force rushing towards him. He couldn't hold his ground and was knocked flying sideways. However, after being thrown, he rolled over and stood up in one go, appearing completely unharmed. Shen Shao said, "Xiao Shu, you've lost. If Chen had pressed on just now, you wouldn't have won." Shu Han was silent for a moment, then admitted frankly, "Yes, Chen, you've won." Chen Chuan shook his head and said, "It's Senior's courtesy." This wasn't just polite talk. He felt Shu Han made a very subtle movement at the end but immediately held back. He guessed it was likely a harmful technique, but since it was just a sparring match, it wasn't used. This victory was only a sparring victory; a life-and-death battle wouldn't have such a straightforward outcome. Shu Han then became much more polite, saying, "Junior, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Let me take you." seaʀᴄh thё Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Hey, I haven't eaten either, take me along," Shen Shao shouted. Shu Han jabbed at him, "You have legs, why do you need someone to take you?" Shen Shao said cheekily, "If someone rejects you, you can reject them. Why can't you take me along just because I have legs?" Shu Han immediately felt his fists tightening again. Chen Chuan smiled to himself, then went downstairs with the two of them in the elevator. On the way, he explained why he didn't come in the morning. Hearing that it was because he was on an external mission, they exchanged surprised glances but said nothing, only looking at him with deep meaning. The large cafeteria of Wuyi Academy is located in the southwest of the campus, mainly because the academy has the most Class B students, and the learning areas for Class B students are all in the old building area. In terms of food supply, except for recommended students who have their private chefs, Class A and Class B students eat together, but there are still distinctions within the cafeteria.After the three of them entered, they walked directly into the dining channel for Class A students. At that moment, the broadcast in the large cafeteria suddenly came on, and a gentle, steady female voice was heard: "Longde Food, abandoning the rigidity and constraints inherent in food, breaks the traditional concept, offering a new expression and interpretation of food. Longde's philosophy is to return food to its most primitive state..." "The materials used in the food are mainly rich-energy algae, high quality and high content, easy to digest and absorb, providing balanced nutrition and various substances essential to the human body..." Chen Chuan noticed that some people in the cafeteria looked numb, while some, clearly freshmen, sighed and said "here we go again', and even more seemed as if they didn't hear it at all. "...Longde Food has adopted strict disinfection measures, complete sealed management, eliminating the drawbacks of external pollutants, solving the safety issues of traditional diets. Longde Food can be preserved for over 150 years under extreme temperatures..." Shen Shao smiled and said, "Hearing it for the first time? It's better for us Class A students, we only have to listen to it once during each meal, but for Class B students, it's a continuous loop, and you can't even walk out. Either you pay for your own meal and come here to eat." Chen Chuan thought for a moment and expressed understanding. It's okay the first time you hear it, but having to listen to it every day is like brainwashing. However, he knew that the school's nutritional paste was provided to them for free by this company, so advertising like this every day isn't really too much. The three of them arrived in the cafeteria, chose a four-seater by the side. Shu Han took out a menu with a pen from under the table, pushed it over and said, "Choose what you want to eat, everything on the list is provided for free. If you want a unique flavor, the cafeteria can make it, but that will cost extra." Chen Chuan didn't stand on ceremony, took it and checked a few items with the pen. After all, he wasn't picky, he could eat anything. After Shu Han and Shen Shao also made their choices, they tore off the list from the top and handed it directly to the waiter who came over. Chen Chuan looked around and noticed that although it was mealtime, there weren't many people. Shen Shao smiled and said, "Junior Chen, don't look at the fact that there are more than two thousand new students this semester, but those who passed the re-examination are less than two hundred, which is already much more than previous years. How many were there in previous years? As few as forty or fifty, as many as seventy or eighty. This year it's doubled, and it's said to have something to do with you." Chen Chuan was somewhat surprised: "Me?"Shen Shao leaned forward slightly, staring at him and said, "It's because of you. You know what? After the news of you defeating Zhong Wu spread that day, many of the examiners didn't dare to be too harsh. They were afraid that if they pushed too hard, someone like you might appear again and beat them to death or cripple them." …… ……
