Chapter 2: Physical Fitness Level 6.5

Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Physical Fitness Level 6.5

"Why is it in reverse order by student number this time? Is Teacher Xu targeting me?" Zhou Qiyi shrank his neck.

He originally thought he would be the last one to be tested, and by then, the other students probably wouldn't be paying much attention, so he wouldn't be embarrassed.

As a result, it was done in reverse order? Zhou Qi felt an urge to die.

"Go on." Li Yuan patted Zhou Qi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Whether you stick your neck out or pull it back, it's still a knife."

Zhou Qi pouted, "If you're going to behead me, at least give me time to wash my neck first."

Muttering under his breath, Zhou Qi, physically honest, afraid of Teacher Xu's reprimand, hurriedly took his long spear and walked to the center of the classroom.

In the center of the classroom, there is a huge circular area paved with silver metal, distinctly different from the other flooring materials in the classroom.

The silver circular floor has a diameter of about 12 meters, giving the impression of a platform at first glance.

Meanwhile, Li Yuan, Wan Xiao, and over a hundred other students all tacitly withdrew from the silver platform.

"Authorization granted." Teacher Xu suddenly spoke in a low voice. On his left wrist was a device resembling a smartwatch, emitting a faint red light. "Senior 3 (Class 2), martial arts skills test, physical fitness assessment, simultaneously recorded!"

Immediately

Whoosh~ Above the classroom, many previously inactive instruments immediately started flashing with white light.

The white light shone down, perfectly covering the silver circular area.

"Wow~" One of the devices suddenly emitted two beams of red light, which spread out and simultaneously enveloped both Zhou Qi and Teacher Xu.

To everyone present, this scene was considered normal.

Only three seconds.

"Li!" The electronic screen at the back of the classroom suddenly lit up, displaying two very prominent lines of white text--

"Zhou Qi (Student), Physical Fitness: Level 3.9 (Last test: 3.7)"

"Xu Bo (Teacher), Physical Fitness: Level 12.0 (Exceeding test limit)"

...

"Wow, it's been so long since my last test, and I've actually improved by 0.2 levels?" Zhou Qi's face showed a hint of delight. "It seems like all the effort over these past few months is starting to pay off."

"Physical fitness is still not even at level 4?" Xu Bo frowned slightly.

A physical fitness level of 3.9 is actually not considered bad among the hundreds of thousands of senior high school students in the province; it can even be considered average.

However, you should know that in Guanshan District's top high school, which is a key school in the provincial capital, this level of physical fitness would be considered bottom-tier.

"It seems Old Zhou talks about lying low, but his body is still very honest." Li Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.

At their age, it's a period of rapid improvement in physical fitness. Being able to increase physical fitness by 0.2 levels in three months shows that Zhou Qi has been working hard in private.

With this rate of improvement, it's hopeful that Zhou Qi could reach a physical fitness level of 4.5 by the time of the college entrance examination (高考).

"However, the school's vitality detection instrument is somewhat basic; it cannot accurately measure Teacher Xu's true physical fitness," Li Yuan whispered.

The vitality detection device is a common device in this era, commonly found in schools and various levels of martial halls.

Many households also have such devices equipped with complex sensing principles, specifically designed to measure the intensity of life's vital energy and blood, which are then converted into corresponding levels of physical fitness.

Level 5.0 is considered the standard for normal adult physical fitness.

Level 10.0 is the threshold for entry-level martial artists. Only those who reach this level can be considered true martial artists in the truest sense, and they are eligible for various benefits such as national subsidies.

Devices like the school's vitality detection instrument are primarily for student use. They typically have a testing limit of 12.0 levels, which may seem basic but is highly stable and unlikely to easily break down.

For such highly utilized instruments, durability is paramount.

Certainly, the physical fitness assessment in the college entrance examination (高考) involves more than just instrument measurements. It also includes specialized tests on aspects such as speed, punching power, and others, with the final score being a comprehensive evaluation.

"During the test, I will assess your scores according to the standards of the college entrance examination (高考). I will only use strength and speed equivalent to about level 5.0. I hope that under the scoring system, you can demonstrate a level of 300 points," Xu Bo said.

In martial arts skills, there are a total of 400 points available. Achieving 300 points in this category is the threshold for admission to a martial arts university.

However, during the skills assessment at the end of the second year, Xu Bo did not display such astonishing agility and strength.

"Is this Xu's true strength?"

"Even though Xu's speed seems slow, probably slower than mine, but his footwork..." More than a hundred students were astonished; many students had physical abilities surpassing level 5.

In past lessons, these students knew that Xu Bo possessed extremely strong physical fitness and had excellent martial arts skills.

But when teaching them, Xu Bo had never demonstrated in real combat the speed and strength of someone with a level 5 physical fitness.

Teaching exercises and real combat are two different things.

Perhaps many students have seen more impressive combat videos online.

However, there is a difference between watching videos and experiencing the impact up close.

Tick-tock!

On the screen at the back of the classroom, the number "1 - 245 points" appeared.

The score is calculated by a program that integrates data and the process of the fight to assess and determine the result.

During the college entrance examination (高考), each student's skills assessment will also include manual evaluation.

"Score is actually lower than last semester?" Zhou Qi muttered to himself, not feeling too embarrassed about it.

At least I managed to thrust so many times.

.....According to the student ID number.

Each student undergoes the test, with most scoring between 4.5 and 5.5 in physical fitness assessments.

As for the martial arts skills assessment?

The competitive process was mostly similar to Zhou Qi's assessment process.

First, the students attacked, but Xu Bo easily dodged each attack with his agility. Finally, he struck with a staff, and even though many students exhibited superior speed and strength, they couldn't withstand it.

Scores, for the most part, were difficult to exceed 300 points.

Even for student number 2, Wan Xiao, whose physical fitness assessment reached level 6.0, his speed and strength far exceeded level 5.0 by a significant margin.

However, he could only withstand three strikes from Xu Bo.

In the end, Wan Xiao's skill score was 322 points.

He is also the only one in the class so far to exceed 320 points.

"Wan Xiao, didn't you score 329 points at the end of last semester? How did you regress?"

"It's not that he regressed; the assessment standards have become much stricter. Haven't you noticed that most scores in our class have decreased?"

"Last semester's final exam was based on the standards for second-year high school students, while this assessment follows the standards for the college entrance examination (高考)."

"Only Li Yuan remains."

"I wonder how many strikes Li Yuan can withstand from Xu Bo." All classmates' eyes were now focused on Li Yuan, and even many female students seemed quite expectant.

In martial arts achievements, Li Yuan ranks in the top thirty in the entire grade, but in the senior high school class (Class Two), he is unquestionably first.

With good grades and a pleasant personality, he will definitely be more popular.

During their student years, most students are not as materialistic as in society.

"Li Yuan," a barely noticeable expectation flashed in Xu Bo's eyes.

"Teacher Xu," Li Yuan walked into the circular arena paved with silver metal, holding his long spear.

Whoosh!

A red light shot out, enveloping Li Yuan's entire body.

Three seconds later.

On the screen at the back of the classroom, the data revealed: "Li Yuan (Student), Physical Fitness: Level 6.5 (Last test: Level 6.0)."
