Rank One Martial Artist
After lunch, Chu Lingjun walked around the school feeling a sense of warmth in his body.
Of course, that was because his body was full of energy, his thoughts were calm, and his memory had improved!
He didn’t have to try so hard to recall the details from the liberal arts class that morning.
Martial artists cultivated vitality to strengthen their bodies.
Espers, on the other hand, cultivated spiritual power and spiritual force. The two complemented each other. The stronger the spiritual power, the more spiritual force in the body, thus providing a stronger superpower.
After lunch, everyone either rested in their respective classrooms or went to the martial arts hall in advance to wait for the classes in the afternoon.

Chu Lingjun had the habit of taking an afternoon nap, but he had such a big lunch it was hard to take a nap. At this moment, he was full of energy and didn’t feel sleepy at all.
Chu Lingjun was lying on his seat with his eyes closed, but his consciousness was rapid as he connected to his electric eel.
The electric eel was Chu Lingjun’s Soul Clone, but the electric eel also had its own basic instinctive consciousness.
In the morning, when Chu Lingjun was in class, he ordered the electric eel to hunt by itself to increase its skill proficiency.
Because there were many tourists in the park during the day, Chu Lingjun only let the electric eel hunt conservatively around its home to prevent accidents.
It hunted a few small carp and tilapia, and its experience points rose to 30 points.
The sound of the Electric Discharge skill was too loud to use in the morning, so he did not order it to use the skill. Thus, it had no increase in experience.
However, after a night and a morning of casting, the proficiency of the Electric Field skill had already reached 72 points.
Chu Lingjun was looking forward to seeing his proficiency level reach its highest level by tonight.
The electric eel used the Electric Field skill to maneuver around. Chu Lingjun looked around, and his body released a weak electric current in all directions.
A muddy vision appeared in Chu Lingjun’s mind as well. It was his other view. All kinds of figures with flashing golden outlines appeared in his sight.
The tables, chairs, floor, and the students who were resting and chatting around him looked strange… It was as if it was the feeling of being able to see with his eyes closed.
The electric eel released an Electric Field with a radius of 10 meters. Similarly, Chu Lingjun also released an Electric Field about 10 meters away.
It seemed that he had the same ability as the electric eel.
This one skill had two purposes.
“Hmm?”
At this moment, in the Electric Field, Chu Lingjun saw a boy not far behind him.
The boy rolled up his sleeves and scrunched his face. His forehead and face were covered in sweat and dust. The boy gritted his teeth as he looked at Chu Lingjun. His expression was one of anger and fear.
It was Zhang Liang, who had just finished cleaning the classroom and the toilet.
After Chu Lingjun awakened his superpower and became the class monitor, this dear classmate no longer dared to gossip in front of Chu Lingjun.
Chu Lingjun wasn’t sure if it stopped when he wasn’t there though.
He was a magnanimous person, so he decided that for the next week, Zhang Liang would be cleaning the toilets.
Once break time was over, all the students gathered at the martial arts hall.
The form teacher stood in front of everyone. His burly body was daunting and exerted great power.
“He’s at least a Rank Two martial artist, right?”
“I feel like it’s more than that. Maybe Rank Three?”
“I think so too…”
“Everyone, quiet down. Class is officially starting now.” Shen Yanhu’s stern eyes swept across the classroom, and the whispers in the classroom disappeared.
“Martial arts are divided into nine grades,” Shen Yanhu said slowly. “Grade One is the lowest, while Grade Nine is the highest.”
“The first step of martial arts is to refine the essence.
“The cultivation of a Rank One martial artist is to temper their vitality and convert the spiritual power of heaven and earth or the energy in sustenance into their own vitality.
“Warriors in this realm have a much bigger appetite than ordinary people. After stepping into the peak of the Spirit Refinement Realm, one’s physical strength would be endless.
“You all ate beast meat for lunch, right? Now that you all had your fill, it’s a good time to refine your vitality into essence!”
Chu Lingjun nodded. This was also the reason why he had to have a heavy lunch.
Even the students with the least talent could get at least a portion of exotic beast meat in the school cafeteria. This was to prepare them for their afternoon classes.
“Does everyone know the Fifth National Military Boxing Style?”
“Yes!” Everyone said in unison.
The Fifth National Military Boxing Style was jointly developed by the Education Bureau and many martial arts masters. It was a boxing technique suitable for high school students.
Of course, ordinary people could also cultivate using this method as well.
The first level of this cultivation technique had long been published online.
This cultivation method was very popular and almost everyone knew about it.
“Alright, now I’ll teach you the breathing and exhalation technique. You will need to refine your essence and to improve your vitality!”
“Yes, sir!”
The students’ eyes lit up with anticipation.
As long as they could successfully convert a trace of vitality, they would be acknowledged as a practicing Rank One martial artist!
Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the other students with strong vitality were looking forward to it.
The foundation they had built up before was either through consuming vitality supplements or cultivating foundational cultivation techniques. It did not involve converting energy into vitality.
In other words, the vitality in their bodies was obtained passively. This way, their organs, internal organs, meridians, and blood vessels would not be harmed.
By learning this cultivation method, they would go from passive to active growth. They would be taking the initiative to lead the process of refining qi.
After teaching the breathing exercise three times, the form teacher began to teach boxing styles.
“The preparatory stance. Stand side by side with both arms hanging down straight. Place both palms on the outside of your thighs with your palms facing down. Straighten your chest and look straight ahead. The second stance, Lifting Cauldron…”
Chu Lingjun’s eyes were fixed on the homeroom teacher as his body followed suit.
At first, Chu Lingjun didn’t feel anything. However, as he became more familiar with his movements, he moved to the rhythm more freely. It seemed that the breathing technique also followed a certain rhythm.
His body was heating up!
Chu Lingjun wasn’t the only one feeling like this. The others around him were the same.
Everyone’s blood boiled. Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the others with high vitality values had even redder skin. There were even wisps of white smoke coming out of their heads.
As their bodies became hotter and hotter, everyone felt their muscles swell and ache. Many of them wanted to lie on the ground and rest.
“Don’t stop, keep going!”
At this moment, a stern shout suddenly sounded in everyone’s ears!
The students who had wanted to lie down and rest immediately trembled. They gritted their teeth and persevered.
Chu Lingjun gritted his teeth and tried his best to persevere as well.
After about 20 minutes, Chu Lingjun suddenly felt the blood in his body tremble. Then, a powerful aura was ignited in his blood!
Chu Lingjun was overjoyed. He had transformed his first wisp of blood essence!
This also meant that he had become a Rank One martial artist!
However, he should be the weakest among the Rank One martial artists at the moment compared to his companions.
With only seven points of vitality, he might lose to untrained special forces.
“Not bad, but keep going, follow my rhythm!”
Shen Yanhu had been keeping a close eye on everyone. Hence, he immediately saw the expressions and actions of Chu Lingjun and the other students who had successfully transformed and moved out their first wisp of vitality.
He nodded in satisfaction, but he did not let everyone rest. Instead, he pushed them ever further.
After cultivating for nearly 45 minutes, the class teacher finally asked everyone to have a rest.
When he said rest, everyone collapsed on the ground weakly, panting as if they had run a 15 kilometer run.
Chu Lingjun felt as if he had become a fish on shore. His lungs were about to explode, and he was seeing stars. His chest was tight and he felt nauseous!
It took a while for him to recover.
Chu Lingjun turned to look at Ding Peng, Chen Zhiqi, and the others.
Chu Lingjun and the others were just as exhausted after cultivating the same lesson. Ding Peng and the others were only panting a little, and they still had the energy to continue cultivating.
This was the benefit of having a strong vitality and a good foundation.
Sometimes, being one step ahead in the battle means being five steps ahead in the war.
“Sir, I have a question. I should have converted about five wisps of vitality just now. How many wisps of vitality do I need to increase my vitality by one point?” At this moment, a student asked curiously.
Chu Lingjun also looked over curiously. He had also moved about five wisps of vitality just now.
The warmth from eating the exotic beast meat at noon had been half converted.
Shen Yanhu smiled. “According to my experience, generally speaking, generating one hundred wisps can increase one point of vitality.”
“Wha… What?” The moment he said this, everyone dropped to the ground in defeat!
He had only converted and transported five wisps of vitality in the previous lesson. Didn’t that mean that he would need to attend 20 lessons to increase his vitality by one point?
With the exotic beast meat completely digested in his body, how was it possible to convert five wisps of vitality in one lesson everyday without getting tired?
There might only be four wisps, three wisps, or even one wisp of Vitality after that!
Moreover, this cultivation process was very tiring!
It had only been one lesson, and everyone had already fallen to the ground like weaklings… Everyone’s expression turned bitter. This martial arts cultivation was too difficult to go on with!
