As Anos made his way to the intermediate class, he rummaged through his memory, searching for the intricacies of the Imperial Physician Holy Technique. He pondered how to best utilize this ancient skill, but his thoughts were laced with skepticism. Why? In this era, Traditional Chinese Medicine seemed obsolete, a relic of the past.
In a world where martial artists could harness the power of wood-type energy to heal wounds and mend broken bones, the need for medical professionals had dwindled. A skilled martial artist could effortlessly restore health, their abilities limited only by their power and expertise. Therefore, Anos deemed the Imperial Physician Holy Technique useless, a mere relic of a bygone era.
However, he knew that there were certain conditions that even the most skilled martial artists found challenging to treat. These enigmatic afflictions lingered in the shadows, waiting to be addressed by someone with the knowledge and expertise to tackle them. And so, Anos's thoughts swirled with the possibilities, his mind racing with the potential applications of this ancient technique.
"Big Brother Anos, are you really heading to the intermediate class? That place is a gathering of elite experts! The weakest among them is at least at the Qi Building Realm's Seven Stars level!" Adam asked in a hushed tone, his eyes wide with concern.
Anos chuckled nonchalantly. "I'm not going there to pick a fight with those powerhouses. I'm on a mission to find Amelia." Adam's expression turned skeptical. "But Amelia is the campus belle, with a multitude of admirers vying for her attention."
Anos shrugged dismissively. "Not my problem!" Just then, he turned around and spotted the two girls trailing behind him. A sly grin spread across his face as he said, "Aww, don't worry, Sasha! I knew you were concerned about my safety, so you came to keep an eye on me. You're so sweet, mua ~"
In his mind, a notification popped up: "Ding... Successfully flirted with Sasha. Scumbag Points + 10000." Anos's grin widened, pleased with himself.
...
Sasha snorted, her eyes flashing with amusement. "Of course not, I'm here to see you get beaten up!" she said, her voice laced with sarcasm. Anos chuckled, unfazed by her words. "Sophistry, women are creatures who don't mean what they say," he teased, his grin mischievous.
Mia chimed in, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Let's see if you can still smile after getting beaten up!" Anos shrugged, his smile unwavering. He knew that the intermediate class and beginner class were in different areas, separated by a distance of about 500 meters within the Sky Martial Court.
As they approached the intermediate class area, they saw many students training in the field. The atmosphere was tense, with a focus on intense martial arts training. Suddenly, a commotion erupted. "Sasha! It's Sasha!" someone exclaimed, pointing at Sasha. "And Mia!
What are the two campus belles doing here?" another student asked, his eyes wide with surprise.
A group of students began to whisper and stare, their eyes fixed on Sasha. "How beautiful! As expected of the woman John likes! Tsk, tsk, tsk," someone said, his voice laced with admiration. Sasha's popularity in Orchid Flower Academy was undeniable, and Anos could see why. She was stunning,
...
As they arrived at the entrance of Intermediate Class 1, Amelia's class, Anos was met with a scene of relaxed camaraderie. The students were lounging about, some engrossed in their books, others chatting idly or playing cards, their faces lit up with smiles. The atmosphere was carefree, a stark contrast to the intense training sessions he had witnessed earlier.
It was as if they were savoring the freedom that came with no teacher in sight.
The students from Intermediate Class One burst out laughing, their mockery echoing through the room. "Hahaha, that useless Anos who can't cultivate dares to confess to the campus belle, Amelia? Where did he get his courage from?" someone jeered. "No, I want to know how this useless person got into our Sky Martial Court!" another student chimed in. "Throw him out! Hurry up and throw him out!"
Jin Kazama's smile was laced with malice as he continued to taunt Anos. "What's wrong? A useless person can cultivate? Hahaha." Of course, he knew Anos could cultivate; he had witnessed it firsthand when Anos defeated him. He was merely trying to provoke Anos, to get under his skin.
...
Anos sneered, his voice laced with disdain. "I said, get out of my sight. I'm not here for you!" He was unfazed by Jin's taunts, his expression unchanging.
Jin's eyes narrowed, his smile faltering for a moment. "What did you say?" he asked, his voice low and menacing. Anos repeated himself, his tone dripping with contempt. "Fuck! Are you deaf? I'll say it again.
Get out of my sight!"
Jin's smile returned, but it was now tinged with amusement and curiosity. "Hahaha... How dare a useless person be so arrogant? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Let me tell you, this is the Intermediate Class, my territory! This is not the place for you to behave atrociously!" He emphasized his point, his voice echoing through the room.
Anos glanced at the blackboard, his eyes scanning the list of names and titles. He spotted the words "Boss: Jin Kazama" and chuckled to himself. With a swagger, he walked up to the blackboard and added a sentence with a piece of chalk: "Boss: Jin Kazama is a dog!" The room fell silent, everyone's jaws dropping in shock.
Jin, ranked in the top 30 of the Intermediate Class, was a formidable opponent, with a cultivation level of Qi Building Stage Seven Stars. Yet, Anos, a newbie who couldn't cultivate before, dared to challenge him openly. It was a reckless move, courting death itself.
....
"Good... Very good!" Jin's face darkened, his eyes flashing with anger like a stormy sky. The atmosphere in the room grew tense as dozens of people from the Intermediate Class stood up from their seats, their faces equally menacing, and formed a semi-circle behind Jin. The air was thick with anticipation, like the moment before a thunderclap.
"I haven't seen such an arrogant newbie in a long time," Jin sneered, his voice dripping with contempt. "I'm afraid you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth now that you can cultivate!" His words were like a challenge, a gauntlet thrown at Anos's feet. Leo fanned the flames, his voice shrill with excitement, like a spark igniting a fire. "Brother Jin, cripple him! This brat is too arrogant!
He doesn't put you in his eyes at all!"
Jin's powerful aura erupted from his body, making the air vibrate with his intensity, like a drumbeat in a war dance. "Brat, kneel down and apologize now, and I'll let you go!" he barked, his voice like a crack of thunder. "If you kneel down now, I'll let you go!" he repeated, his eyes glinting with malice, like a predator toying with its prey.
Anos remained unmoved, his expression unchanging, like a mountain weathering a storm. His eyes gleamed with a fierce inner light, like a beacon in the darkness. "You're courting death!" he said calmly, his voice steady, like a rock unmoved by the waves.
Then, Jin rushed towards Anos like a gust of wind, his fists clenched and ready to strike, like a hawk diving for its prey. But just as he was about to reach Anos, the latter suddenly shouted, "Wait!" Jin stopped in his tracks, his eyes narrowing, like a hunter pausing at the scent of danger. He waited for Anos's next move, his body tense, like a coiled spring ready to strike.
