Tianhai No. 1 High School.
Only Martial Artist Geniuses or academic overachievers could get in here. Of course, there was also another type of person who could enter.
Just like Jiang Chen before, he relied entirely on his Family's status.
However, this was an unwritten rule known to all humans. People from such Families at least had ancestors who fought on the front lines for humanity.
Their children could indeed enjoy better conditions, and this also motivated everyone to become a Martial Artist, and even become a pillar of humanity!
As the best middle school in Tianhai City, Tianhai No. 1 High School's faculty and equipment were top-notch in Xia Nation.
There was no need to look at anything else; just the impressive gate of the school was enough to know.
Jiang Chen slowly walked towards the school, his mind filled with thoughts of how to accelerate his Clone's evolution.
Another problem was that while the Star River Meditation Method could increase Qi and Blood, the speed was simply too slow.
After arriving at school this time, another goal was to ask the teachers if there were any methods to enhance Qi and Blood.
Actually, Jiang Chen also knew a way to increase Qi and Blood, which was to eat more meat from exotic beasts.
There were also some Medicinal Pills that increased Qi and Blood, but Jiang Chen wasn't too clear about other methods.
Because the previous Jiang Chen, due to his lack of Martial Dao talent, had long since gone to study liberal arts, and the Family's subsidies for Martial Dao had also stopped long ago.
For a Martial Dao Family, only by becoming a Martial Artist would one have the opportunity to enjoy some special treatment.
Don't look at Jiang Chen's status as part of the main branch; in such a Family, there were too many people with main branch status.
Consequently, the number of Martial Dao clansmen to be cultivated would also increase, yet Jiang Chen's lineage was previously the most Genius lineage of the Jiang Family.
It was a pity, everything changed because of Jiang Chen's missing father.
By the time it reached Jiang Chen, his lineage only had him, and he was previously just an ordinary person whose Qi and Blood were difficult to increase.
Therefore, cutting off their resources to invest in others was also the cruelest reality for every Family.
Jiang Chen didn't have much to say about this, so if Jiang Chen were to tell them now that he wasn't a Martial Dao waste, they would probably just treat him like an idiot.
Honestly, he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Jiang Family.
He didn't even have any impression of his blood-related parents, as he couldn't find any related memories in his mind.
In Jiang Chen's childhood memories, there was only an aunt who took care of him. The aunt also left after he started junior high, and after that, he lived by himself.
As for his so-called status, the most common thing he heard was 'bastard' from people like Jiang Hong!
Jiang Chen remembered asking in his childhood why they called him 'bastard', but everyone pointed to his never-before-seen father.
Therefore, Jiang Chen didn't have much affection for his parents in his heart.
If there was any emotion, it was just hatred.
Perhaps because of Jiang Chen's past experiences, his heart might have already 'died'.
And then the current Jiang Chen appeared.
However, Jiang Chen didn't want to understand this; the current him was Jiang Chen.
And now, the only thing he was interested in was working hard to evolve, and then he wanted to go see the Mythical World.
Perhaps when he became strong enough, a 'way home' would appear.
"Jiang Chen!"
A shout came from behind Jiang Chen, who had just stepped through the school gate.
"Zhang Tianhai?"
After Jiang Chen turned around, he saw a short-haired, chubby teenager waving at him, and this figure matched the memory in his mind.
Zhang Tianhai waved at Jiang Chen, then ran to Jiang Chen's side, panting heavily, and quickly used Jiang Chen's body to support himself.
If it weren't for Jiang Chen's Physique greatly improving these past two days, he would have almost been knocked down by this fatty.
He smiled happily at Jiang Chen, panting, "I thought you were too strike to come to school. I've been trying to contact you for two days, and there was no news from you."
"If I hadn't found out you were still alive, I would have gone directly to your house to find you."
"Now that I see you're fine, I'm relieved."
Jiang Chen glanced at him, knowing what he was talking about. As the eldest young master of the Zhang Family, Zhang Tianhai must have known about Yun Cai'er breaking off their engagement.
Looking at the fatty's concerned eyes, Jiang Chen felt a warmth in his heart. It was truly good to have a friend who genuinely cared about him in his current situation.
"What could happen to me? I'm much more relaxed without that matter."
"No, how did you get so much fatter after not seeing you for two days?"
Looking at Zhang Tianhai, who had gained a small amount of weight after just one weekend, Jiang Chen really didn't know what he had been eating.
"Sigh~ Don't even mention it. The college entrance examination is coming soon."
"My old man is frantically giving me things to replenish my Qi and Blood, wanting my Qi and Blood to Breakthrough 700 within a month, and even wanting my Qi and Blood to reach over 1200 before the college entrance examination, becoming a Second-Rank Martial Artist."
"I'm almost throwing up from eating all that stuff recently."
Zhang Tianhai complained, but he didn't realize that what he was saying was completely stabbing Jiang Chen's heart.
If you don't want to eat it, give it to me!
After Zhang Tianhai finished complaining, he then noticed that Jiang Chen's appearance had also changed greatly. The sickly, skinny dog-like appearance was gone, and he looked much more energetic.
"However, you've changed quite a bit after not seeing you for two days, haven't you?"
"What good stuff did you secretly eat? You've gotten so much stronger all of a sudden?"
After saying that, Zhang Tianhai even patted Jiang Chen's body a few times, instantly making the surrounding new students look at the two of them with strange eyes.
Jiang Chen immediately stopped the dead fatty's pig trotters that were still trying to reach his abdomen.
If he was really seen being 'molested' by this fatty, not only would he have the title of a discarded waste, but he would also have the identity of a dead rabbit. How unjust would that be?
"I ate some Qi and Blood tonics, just like you. I had a Breakthrough in Martial Dao, so I'm a bit more energetic."
"Alright, let's hurry in, otherwise we'll be late."
Jiang Chen quickly pulled him into the campus, but Zhang Tianhai looked somewhat disappointed.
"You still haven't given up on Martial Dao? Do you even have 80 Qi and Blood now?"
"There are only a little over two months until the college entrance examination. If your Qi and Blood can't Breakthrough 200, what will you use to take the exam?"
"And Martial Dao is so dangerous. If my old man hadn't forced me to learn martial arts to have some survival ability, I wouldn't want to learn martial arts at all."
"Listen to your buddy, with your intelligence, we two will definitely become the richest people in this world!"
"Not to mention Tianhai City, even the Mythical World will have a place for us!"
"So what if our Martial Dao is weak? I can still hire a group of Martial Artists to protect me. If this group doesn't work, I'll switch to the next one."
"I don't believe anyone can go against money."
"I'm determined to become the number one merchant in the Universe!"
Jiang Chen removed his hand from his shoulder.
Then he looked mischievously at the fatty who was bragging about riding a Chaotic Behemoth in the future.
"I understand, but you'll be late in one minute and twelve seconds."
"You should first consider how not to be punished."
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he ran off in a flash.
The fatty Zhang Tianhai was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, looking at Jiang Chen, who was running twice as fast as usual, and roared:
"Holy crap!"
"Wait for me..."
