I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

This person... so strong!

Too strong, it's outrageous, even though we're just peers...

"Very good," Xue Jing nodded in satisfaction.

He had no experience as a teacher, but he understood the laws of human nature.

In this world, there are numerous ways to bend hearts and minds to your will, but when you boil it down, it's nothing more than a mix of kindness and severity, carrots, and sticks.

Unfortunately for them, he had plenty of carrots.

And even more sticks.

"Xu Zixuan, could you stand up for a moment?"

Xue Jing tapped his finger on the podium and looked towards a boy sitting not far from Chen Xingyan and He Han.

The smile on Xu Zixuan's playful face stiffened, and he hesitated for a moment, but seeing the increasingly gentle smile on Xue Jing's face, he slowly stood up.

"You just now, seemed to be doing some actions under the table that you thought I couldn't see," Xue Jing said with a smile.

Chen Xingyan, originally full of resentment, felt a sudden relief in his mood after witnessing this scene, taking malicious glee in Xu Zixuan's plight.

"Uh... Mr. Xue, I..."

Xu Zixuan showed hesitation, but Xue Jing gestured for him to come over.

"Come here and repeat the actions you were doing to your classmates, but do them to me."

Xu Zixuan promptly admitted defeat, bowing his head and saying, "Teacher, I was wrong."

He really didn't dare make that kind of gesture to Xue Jing... fearing that being stubborn would only make him lose more face, it was better to admit fault sooner and lose less.

Xue Jing nodded and said, "Your attitude is okay... but if apologies were useful, then what would be the point of practicing martial arts?"

Xu Zixuan: "Eh?"

Xue Jing extended his right hand toward Xu Zixuan, put his thumb under his index finger, and flicked.

An invisible Qi Force shot out, surging to Xu Zixuan's chin and then suddenly turning to strike upwards, hitting him right on the chin.

"Bang—!!"

Xu Zixuan spiraled upwards on the spot, spinning as his head smashed through the ceiling, completely buried within it, leaving only his body hanging outside, dangling from the ceiling like a sunny doll on a noose.

All the students, having witnessed this scene, were wide-eyed and silent as cicadas in winter.

Chen Xingyan, upon seeing this, had not a single complaint left, only a deep sense of relief.

Xue Jing looked around at the students' expressions and nodded with a smile:

"Then let's officially begin."

"Hello students, I am your Mr. Xue, and I will be the examiner for this martial arts examination, responsible for training you, and leading you through the exam."

"This will be a brief but memorable time, let's... get along well, shall we?"

Seeing the youth's gentle and even somewhat captivating smile, no student dared to underestimate him anymore, quickly responding in unison:

"Hello, Mr. Xue!!!"

Xue Jing tapped his fingers on the podium and suddenly said:

"You are the worst batch I have ever taught."

"Ah?" the students were bewildered.

After saying the phrase 'that he had always wanted say as a teacher', Xue Jing chuckled and said:

"Of course, you're also the best batch... since I have only taught you after all."

The students showed awkward smiles, somewhat embarrassed.

"To secure a place in the Martial Arts Examination of the Seventh Metropolitan Circle, you must be considered quite competent among ordinary people."

"But in my eyes, all of you are mediocre." Explore new worlds at My Virtual Library Empire

Xue Jing continued without changing his tone.

"Individuals with no gifts, who have to fight with their peers for resources and struggle desperately to climb upwards."

"Whether you accept it or not, like it or not, this is the truth."

Many students showed dissatisfaction, but intimidated by Xue Jing's authority, they didn't dare to speak out.

Only a few students remained indifferent, with some even showing agreement.

"But... no one has ever decreed that mediocrities cannot reach the top."

Xue Jing's tone shifted.

"Only two animals can reach the top of the pyramid, one is the eagle, the other a snail."

"It doesn't matter if you can't flap your wings like an eagle, slowly but surely climbing upwards, you can always make progress, and perhaps one day you really will have climbed up there."

"And now, what I need to do, is to carry you part of the way... Although I can't bring you directly to the end, at least I can get you closer to your own goals."

"The only thing you need to do is believe in me."

The students stood dumbfounded in silence, unsure if Xue Jing was trying to suppress them or encourage them.

Xue Jing didn't care, he picked up the document on the lectern, flipped through a page, and smiled:

"Let's begin the roll call..."

...

On the training ground, all thirty-one classmates were present except one, scattered around the perimeter of the field.

Xue Jing stood at the center and said:

"We only have three days to train you, generally speaking, such a short time is not enough to teach you much, it's best to use all three days to get to know each other, build rapport, and come up with some tactics for inside the Intersecting Boundaries."

"But it's a bit different with me."

"Now, in the order of student numbers, come forward one by one for some combat training with me... I need to understand each of your situations."

The students exchanged worried glances: "Combat training with Mr. Xue? This..."

After the scene they had just witnessed, essentially all the students understood just how terrifyingly strong their peer-aged teacher was... even his temper seemed a bit frightening.

Xu Zixuan was still hanging on the ceiling... huh?

Seeing Xu Zixuan silently walk out of the crowd and approach Xue Jing, everyone was stunned.

He seems completely unharmed?

"I knew it, Mr. Xue was using Soft Power, he didn't hurt him at all!"

A female student said happily.

"Just yesterday, when we were attacking Mr. Xue together, he also used Soft Power to beat us, he never hurt us... Mr. Xue, you're so kind."

Beside her, the beautiful girl named Ye Jingqiu clasped her hands to her heart, moved.

"The things he said just now must also be to encourage us, our teacher seems to be a bit of a 'sharp-tongued softie', even when he needs to establish authority, he's still soft-hearted, he's such a good person..."

"Then... does that mean the teacher is going to gently check each of our bodies next, to teach us both through words and actions..."

Another female student blushed and swallowed, squeezing her thighs together a bit.

As soon as she spoke, the nearby female students all widened their eyes, visibly excited, and even those who were more reserved had their hearts racing.

Even some male students showed excitement in their eyes.

"Ah, these girls are really something else."

He Han shook his head speechlessly as he listened to the excited whispers of the girls.

He looked towards Cao Sini, who was standing beside him, with a posture as tall and straight as a model:

"Right, Cao?"

Cao Sini glanced at him expressionlessly, without a word.

"Let's pretend we're gymnasts during our turn with Mr. Xue..."

A female student was happily making a suggestion when suddenly.

"Bang——!!"

On the wall some meters away, Xu Zixuan, the first to go up for combat training with Xue Jing, had his entire body embedded into the wall, with dust filling the air, his bloodied and unconscious figure entered everyone's field of vision.

In the silence, Xue Jing's voice came from the center of the field.

"Next."

"..."

What happened to being gentle and not wanting to hurt students?

Surely we're not all going to arrive at the Martial Arts Examination covered in bruises three days from now?

The student with the second number was a beautiful long-haired female student, she walked tremblingly to the center, stuttering to Xue Jing:

"Te...Teacher, I'm a girl, could you please go a bit easier?"

Xue Jing looked at her and said gently:

"As a teacher, I am a true believer in gender equality."

The female student: "..."
