Chapter 5 - 5: Returning to School

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Returning to School

After awakening his spiritual power, Lin Zhen checked the time, and it had only taken him nine hours.

Being able to awaken within ten hours can be described as genius, nine hours is really outstanding, especially considering that Lin Zhen is not yet seventeen years old, one could almost say that he has awakened quite early.

Ordinary martial artists will first take genetic potions to improve their physique, but the timing of awakening spiritual power varies. However, the earlier the awakening, the greater the future achievements.

For the next two days, Lin Zhen stayed at home, adapting to his spiritual power.

With the experience of his previous life, this process wasnt difficult; two days later, Lin Zhens spiritual power had completely stabilized. As long as he diligently cultivated, his spiritual power would gradually increase.

The day of the graduation exam quickly arrived, and Lin Zhen left home and headed to school.

By the time he got to school, it was already bustling, with all sorts of luxury cars filling the campus.

Just as he arrived at the school entrance, someone appeared in front of Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen, youre here.

Lin Zhen looked up and saw a tall and strong young man over 1.9 meters tall standing in front of him, his face showing a simple smile.

Lin Zhen smiled; he and Meng Dong had been good friends during school. Meng Dong was a very good boy with excellent martial arts talent, having grown up with Lin Zhen and being his best friend at school.

Meng Dong was born with divine power. Lin Zhen knew that Meng Dong was chosen by Gale Martial Arts Hall in this graduation exam to become a student, and within less than two months, he became an official martial artist, making a name for himself in the Northern Region.

Lin Zhen only managed to enter Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall in this graduation exam due to Ouyang Yus meddling, which widened the gap between him and Meng Dong. The self-conscious Lin Zhen stopped contacting Meng Dong after that and the two drifted apart in the future.

Seeing his old friend, Lin Zhen was happy and patted Meng Dongs shoulder, Dongzi, you came so early today, it looks like youre full of confidence.

Meng Dong scratched his head, Lin Zhen, dont tell others about this, but I was so nervous yesterday that I didnt sleep well all night. What if I fail to perform well and am not selected? My parents would be so disappointed, they are waiting for me to make money and buy them a big house. Nww hapters will be fully updated at (n)ov()l/bin(.)com

Dont worry unnecessarily, Im sure you will be selected by Gale this time.

Meng Dong smiled broadly, If I really get selected by Gale, Ill definitely treat you to a big meal. Lets go for some roast saber-toothed wild boar No, you also need to join Gale Martial Arts Hall.

Ill try my best.

Lin Zhen smiled, knowing that he had improved a lot, but wasnt sure exactly how much because there was no way to test it at home. He would only know during the graduation exam.

How are you prepared for the morning cultural classes? At least make sure you pass. Lin Zhen reminded Meng Dong.

Dont worry, Ive memorized almost everything.

As the two walked and talked, Lin Zhen suddenly stopped in his tracks.

A beautiful figure appeared in front, with silky hair and exquisite features. At such a young age, she already possessed an irresistible charm, her beautiful eyes flickering as they looked at Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen, its An Ning, she is looking at you.

Meng Dong smiled lewdly at the side, as a close friend, he knew Lin Zhens feelings for An Ning and wished for his friends wish to come true.

Seeing the girl he liked after being reborn, Lin Zhens heart was filled with a faint joy that only those who had experienced the feeling of being worlds apart would understand.

Lin Zhen, how are you prepared? An Ning spoke, her crisp voice like pearls falling on a jade plate.

Its fine, I dont feel any psychological pressure. Lin Zhen replied with a smile.

Thats good, as long as you perform normally, there should be no problem joining a martial arts school. However, you should be careful. I heard that An Ning hesitated a bit.

Lin Zhen smiled slightly: Dont worry, Im confident. These martial arts schools have an outstanding reputation; they wont let someone control everything just by their words.

An Ning nodded, knowing that Lin Zhen understood her meaning.

At this moment, another boy came over.

His long hair was a bit messy, and there was a faint red slap mark on his handsome face. It seemed like it had been there for two days but had not completely faded, showing how furious the person who slapped him was.

The person who came was Ouyang Yu. There were three promising students in Class 3, namely Ouyang Yu, Meng Dong, and Lin Zhen, and they were known as the three main pillars of the class.

Lin Zhen was the last pillar, and Ouyang Yu held the first position, always being quite prominent in the school.

Ouyang Yu approached An Ning and gently said, An Ning, why are you here? Ive been looking for you everywhere. Some people from Dragon-slaying Academy came over. Uncle Zhang has a good relationship with my dad, so I can introduce him to you. Hes quite famous in the martial arts circle of our Base City.

An Ning frowned slightly: Why do I need your dads friends to introduce people to me? Were just ordinary classmates; theres no need for that, right?

An Ning, dont you really understand my feelings for you? Did you see the post I made the night before last? I wasnt trying to show off, I just wanted to prove my feelings for you. For you, money means nothing to me.

How boring, whatever you want to do is your business, it has nothing to do with me. Besides, I hate wasteful people, your behavior is simply childish! An Ning showed no courtesy to Ouyang Yu.

Meng Dong and Lin Zhen stood to one side with smiles on their faces, looking delighted at Ouyang Yus misfortune, as if they deserved a beating.

Ouyang Yu was annoyed but couldnt vent his anger on An Ning. He immediately directed his anger at Lin Zhen: Lin Zhen, I remember warning you to stay away from An Ning. Did you just turn a deaf ear to my words?

Lin Zhens face suddenly turned cold: Ouyang Yu, you think too highly of yourself.

Meng Dong also clenched his fists with a crackling sound: Ouyang Yu, do you want to try a spar? People say youre the number one in Class 3, but I never really believed it.

Faced with Meng Dong and Lin Zhen, Ouyang Yu was somewhat intimidated at this moment. His fame was indeed greater than these two, but when it came to strength, he didnt dare to say he could beat Meng Dong. As for Lin Zhen, although he was confident in winning, for some reason today, Lin Zhens eyes were particularly sharp, making him feel a bit uncomfortable looking directly into them. To add to it, the final exams were approaching, and he didnt want to create any additional problems for himself.

Fine! Lin Zhen, youve got guts! Remember what I said, you wont have the qualifications to join a good martial arts school with your current results, and even if a small school accepts you, I have ways to make your life miserable.

Haha! You rely on your dads power to throw your weight around, and yet your face still has a slap mark on it. Its really quite hilarious when you say things like that.

Lin Zhen laughed, then turned to Meng Dong and said: Meng Dong, what would you do if some careless brat sold something worth five million for just a hundred? If you were that kids dad, what would you do?

Although Meng Dong was straightforward, he had great chemistry with Lin Zhen after spending years together. He immediately waved his hand: I would definitely give him a big slap, I shouldve flushed him down the sewer back then!

Lin Zhen couldnt help but grin. Meng Dong was quite to his liking.

As expected, Ouyang Yus face turned livid. The slap mark on his face had indeed been given by his father, and he didnt dare to tell anyone about the incident. He didnt expect Lin Zhen to know about it already.

Lin Zhen, youll pay for what you said today! Well see!

Ouyang Yu couldnt stay there any longer and turned to leave in embarrassment.

An Ning was somewhat worried but didnt say anything. After all, her relationship with Lin Zhen was that of ordinary classmates. Although she knew Lin Zhen might have feelings for her, he hadnt said anything, so as a girl, she couldnt say anything either.
