On the arena.

Bai Zhenzhen’s figure was like a phantom, darting back and forth at high speed within the circle, constantly dodging the steel pellets that shot from all directions.

After two months of arduous training, Bai Zhenzhen’s physical body, under the repeated tempering of the Thunderstruck True Body and the assistance of the True Spirit Root, had continuously improved the reaction speed and explosive power of her entire body’s muscles and tendons.

At this moment, the nerves running through her entire body constantly transmitted her will, controlling the contraction and explosion of her muscles and tendons, dodging the high-speed steel pellets while moving.

Because her body’s reaction and movements were too fast, she left a series of afterimages while always managing to avoid the steel pellets at the crucial moment.

“Much slower than Yu-zi’s.”

Compared to Zhang Yu, who went all out during their combat training, the steel pellets in front of her seemed much slower, allowing Bai Zhenzhen to even spare the focus to evaluate them.

At the same time, almost all of the contestants from the top three high schools were like Bai Zhenzhen, effortlessly dodging the high-speed steel pellets shooting from all directions, forming a stark contrast with the other contestants who were constantly being eliminated.

In the audience stands.

Gang Shan nodded and said, “Jing Chen, you’re right. These two students from Songyang High School have indeed caught up to the level of the top three high schools.”

Le Jingchen smiled and said, “This is the impact brought about by the breakthrough in body refining technology. Even students who were far inferior to the top three high schools in the past now have the possibility of catching up to those academic prodigies after undergoing surgical modifications.”

Gang Shan said, “However, their performance seems to be very different from Le Mulan’s. They don’t seem as effortless as Le Mulan.”

Le Jingchen nodded, taking it for granted, and said, “The Super Metabolism Surgery brings about a comprehensive improvement in drug resistance, allowing for the excessive intake of various medicines.”

“And the effects of drugs cover all aspects, whether it’s strength, speed, explosiveness, balance, flexibility, reaction, focus, digestion… all functions of the human body can be enhanced through potions.”

“In other words, the improvement brought about by the Super Metabolism Surgery is the most comprehensive, with no blind spots or weaknesses.”

“Like this current stage, in addition to the speed and reaction of the body, it also tests the brain’s focus and endurance, which is something that most body refining techniques find difficult to cultivate.”

“But for Le Mulan, who has undergone the Super Metabolism Surgery, all she needs to do is inject a needle into her skull. If one needle isn’t enough, she can have two, and she’ll possess a level of focus that surpasses all the students present.”

Le Jingchen recommended, “If you’re interested in the Super Metabolism body refining technology, you can follow the official website of Ziyun Pharmaceuticals, where you’ll find more detailed information…”

After Le Jingchen gave a long spiel about Ziyun, Gang Shan asked curiously, “Will this surgery be very expensive?”

Le Jingchen nodded, “Ziyun has always wanted to use new technologies to benefit the world. Although the cost of this technology isn’t low, the surgery fee has now been reduced to below 1 million.”

Gang Shan said, “This price is indeed not cheap, but the ‘Dare to Borrow’ platform recently discussed with me about launching a welfare program for everyone.”

“As long as you enter the ‘Dare to Borrow’ platform to borrow money from me, you can be exempt from six installments of service fees.”

“If you’re brothers, come to me to borrow money…”

Le Jingchen quietly watched the other party advertise, sighing in his heart, “Although Gang Shan is a body refining internet celebrity, he doesn’t sell medicine or techniques, only doing loan advertisements, which are the safest. The mortality rate of his fans is among the lowest in the body refining internet celebrity world, making him a relatively self-respecting streamer.”

“I wonder how much the company paid him to promote the new technology this time.”

At the same time, just as Le Jingchen and Gang Shan finished their respective rounds of advertising.

All the ordinary high school students in the arena had been eliminated.

As the dodging space continued to shrink, the students from the key high schools also began to be eliminated one after another.

He Dayou arduously dodged the high-speed steel pellets shooting from all directions. As the dodging space continued to shrink, his brain was highly focused, and sweat dripped from his forehead.

Suddenly, he felt a lag in his leg. The muscle’s power exertion did not seem to keep up with his brain’s thoughts.

Then, accompanied by a series of crackling sounds, He Dayou fell to the ground with resentment.

The transplanted muscles had ultimately failed to be fully controlled by him, and after a long period of high-intensity operation, an error finally occurred.

Looking at his time, it was 58 seconds.

He sighed regretfully and returned to the resting area of Songyang High School.

Zhao Tianxing, who was beside him, looked at He Dayou with some envy, thinking in his heart, “He actually lasted for 58 seconds, so long. If I went up, I guess I could only last for about 30 seconds at most.”

But He Dayou, who was being envied by Zhao Tianxing, could not feel the slightest joy.

At this moment, He Dayou was looking longingly at the live broadcast on the big screen.

“Not a single one from the top three high schools has been eliminated?”

“The new body refining technology… if only I could also receive this kind of modification.”

Le Jingchen commented, “The students from the key high schools have been eliminated almost completely. The circle has shrunk by nearly half. Next, it’s time for the students from the top three high schools to be hit.”

Gang Shan asked curiously, “Jing Chen, who do you think will ultimately win this stage?”

Le Jingchen said calmly, “The students from Red Pagoda High School are generally too large, putting them at the greatest disadvantage in this stage. They should be the first among the top three high schools to be hit by the steel pellets.”

“The two students from Songyang have the advantage of their small size, so they can last a little longer, one step behind Red Pagoda High School, and be hit along with most of the contestants from Ziyun and White Dragon High Schools.”

“As for the final first place… it should be between Le Mulan and Yu Xinghan.”

“Although I have great confidence in this younger sister’s strength and Ziyun’s new technology, Yu Xinghan is, after all, a Golden Core disciple, with far more investment on him than any other contestant present, and all his stats are also the highest in the field. Mulan may not be able to beat him…”

In Le Jingchen’s comments, although he praised Yu Xinghan very highly, his words constantly emphasized the other party’s identity as a Golden Core disciple.

Obviously, he hoped that even if Yu Xinghan won later, the reason would be attributed to him being a Golden Core disciple, while if Le Mulan won, it would be due to the power of Ziyun’s technology.

The following competition process was also accurately predicted by Le Jingchen.

First, the students from Red Pagoda High School were hit by steel pellets amidst angry roars.

Then, some of the contestants from Ziyun and White Dragon High Schools were hit by steel pellets.

Chu Qiuhe felt the impact of the steel pellets on his arm. He snorted coldly, stopped dodging directly, and allowed the steel pellets to hit him hard, making crackling sounds, while he nonchalantly walked out of the room.

“Dodging back and forth is really annoying. It seems that withstanding the attacks head-on is more suitable for me.”

While walking, he also turned his gaze to the big screen, concerned about the performance of the remaining students who were still competing.

On the other side, Lian Tianji was also hit after persisting for more than ten seconds due to being unable to dodge in time.

Amidst the admiring gazes of countless ordinary high school and key high school students, Lian Tianji walked towards the resting area while staring intently at the live broadcast on the big screen, watching who else was competing.

A hint of regret appeared on his face, “As expected, I still can’t compare to the Holy First and Zhang Yu and them?”

As one after another student from the top three high schools was gradually eliminated, Gang Shan was surprised to find that Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu were still in the arena.

In addition to Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, the only remaining contestants on the scene were Le Mulan and Yu Xinghan.

“Made it to the top four?”

Le Jingchen also felt a little surprised, but after a moment’s thought, he felt it was normal.

“After all, the physical strength of this Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen is ranked 5th and 7th in this arena, and they also have the advantage of their small size. It’s normal for them to squeeze into the top 4 in this stage.”

“I shouldn’t have been unconsciously condescending towards them because of Songyang High School. After all, they should also have applied the newly breakthrough body refining technology.”

“These two people may have the possibility of entering the top 5 in the overall score of the physical competition.”

Le Jingchen secretly reflected on himself, then looked at the arena.

At this moment, the circle had shrunk to almost the size of one person. Zhang Yu had already activated the fully concentrated state, observing the slowly shooting steel pellets, moving his body bit by bit, trying his best to dodge each steel pellet.

Bai Zhenzhen, on the other hand, was twisting her body repeatedly, making all kinds of unbelievable dodging movements, using her astonishing movement speed, nerve reaction, and flexibility to compensate for her lack of focus and continue to persevere.

But for both of them, the most difficult thing now was not the dodging itself, but to constantly turn their heads and bodies to see the steel pellets shooting from all directions when the dodging space was insufficient.

Bai Zhenzhen gritted her teeth in her heart and said, “At this rate, I won’t be able to see them all.”

As the dodging space further shrunk, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen found it increasingly difficult to dodge and were finally eliminated one after another.

4th place, Songyang High School, Bai Zhenzhen, 2 minutes 13 seconds

3rd place, Songyang High School, Zhang Yu, 2 minutes 18 seconds

Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu, who had left the arena, welcomed the awed gazes of the surrounding contestants and also looked at the live broadcast on the big screen with concern, looking at Le Mulan and Yu Xinghan, who were still competing for first place.

Bai Zhenzhen said with some reluctance, “These two guys… I feel like they can see the steel pellets shooting from behind them.”

At the same time, Le Mulan on the other side no longer had the composure she had at the beginning.

Her eyes and ears were extremely sharp under the effects of the tenfold stimulant, discerning the changes in the surrounding airflow and judging the position from which the steel pellets were shooting.

Her brain was operating at an ultra-limit level under the stimulation of the tenfold nootropic drug, constantly judging the order of the next dodging movements and dodging one after another shooting steel pellet according to the optimal route.

Rolling blood flowed like a great river, transporting the potions to every muscle in her body, stimulating the contraction and explosion of the muscles, making each of her movements leave behind continuous afterimages.

Even so, as the circle shrank, Le Mulan felt that dodging was becoming increasingly difficult. Her brain was getting hotter and hotter under high-speed operation, and sweat was constantly secreted from her forehead, flowing down her cheeks, all the way down her fair neck.

Especially as the dodging space shrank, Le Mulan was completely unable to turn around, and her perception of the steel pellets shooting from behind relied entirely on hearing, which was becoming increasingly difficult.

The moment she was hit in the back by a steel pellet, Le Mulan suddenly relaxed and flashed out of the small room.

2nd place, Ziyun High School, Le Mulan, 2 minutes 25 seconds

When Le Mulan, who had left the arena, also looked at the live broadcast on the big screen, she was shocked to find that Yu Xinghan was still dodging in that small circle.

Le Mulan was shocked in her heart, “How did he do it?”

Yu Xinghan felt the slowed-down world. The third eye in his brain seemed to be able to feel the shock of countless people on the scene.

“Do you all think this is difficult?”

Level 10 Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Art allowed him to see a slowed-down world in a fully concentrated state.

The third eye in his brain allowed him to have a 360-degree field of vision.

And the highest physical strength among all the contestants was even more terrifying speed when unleashed by him.

In the audience stands, Le Jingchen looked at Yu Xinghan’s movements and thought to himself, “This guy… can see behind himself without any mana operation. Then, that is the effect of some kind of physical modification?”

“But White Dragon High School doesn’t have any relevant technology either. Could it be the means of Starfire True Man, or… is this guy’s natural peculiarity?”

Le Jingchen could not be sure but did not raise any objections.

After all, sports competitions test physical strength. If the body has peculiarities, it is either a natural advantage or a technical advantage, both of which are within the scope of the rules.

At the next moment, a burst of exclamation erupted on the scene.

On the arena.

Just as the circle on the ground shrank to the point where it was becoming increasingly difficult for Yu Xinghan to stand, he squatted down and pointed a finger downwards.

He actually touched the ground with one index finger, sat cross-legged, and steadily ‘sat’ on the circle.

Then, with his index finger touching the ground, other parts of his body continued to adjust his posture, like a silver tree dancing wildly, using various incredible and superhuman postures to continue dodging the steel pellets.

In the next few seconds, the strength, speed, balance, flexibility, reaction… that Yu Xinghan displayed to the audience was a perfect and shocking body that exhibited a dominating strength in all aspects.

Until the circle completely shrank to be smaller than the land occupied by that finger, Yu Xinghan, in the shocked gazes of the audience, slightly flickered, and with a force of his fingertip, soared into the sky, dodging the last wave of steel pellets.

The steel pellets shooting from all directions also stopped shooting as the circle was completely closed.

When Yu Xinghan’s figure fell from mid-air and stood in the room again, he still had not been hit by a single steel pellet.

1st place, White Dragon High School, Yu Xinghan, 2 minutes 33 seconds

Yu Xinghan in the big screen smiled slightly at everyone on the scene and said lightly, “Xianyun Group will provide body refining services of imitation demon muscles in Songyang City starting next month. Welcome everyone to follow.”
