Star Sky Professional

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, the final exam season had arrived.

High schools on Chuying Star also held exams in June, followed by a two-month vacation.

"Finally... after the exams, I won't be a first-year student but a sophomore."

Fang Xing hadn't gone to the Otherworld last night but chose to rest in the neighborhood.

When the first rays of the morning sun streamed into the bedroom, he slowly opened his eyes and focused on his attribute panel:

[Name: Fang Xing]

[Age: 16]

[Profession: Martial Artist]

[First Realm: Flesh Refining (Muscle Refining: 86/100)]

[Military Boxing Twelve Styles: 27/100 (Skilled)]

[Great Dragon Stance: 1/200 (Master)]

[Gate of All Heavens (Charging)]

…

"Qi Blood Pills truly are the best assisting elixirs for Postnatal Martial Artists to cultivate... Just one bottle has brought me close to Perfecting the first realm."

"Even the wealthy on Chuying Star might not have such luxury..."

A hint of joy appeared on Fang Xing's face.

"Relying on medicine indeed makes sense. Initially, without elixirs, I thought that just reaching Perfect Flesh Refining by the end of the term would be the limit, but now I'm almost at Perfect Muscle Refining..."

"The barrier from the first realm to the Second Realm isn't a problem as long as I have enough Qi Blood Pills..."

"And there's the Great Dragon Stance, reaching the Third Stage that Teacher Xia Long talked about. Even if the Jade Skin is exposed, it doesn't matter..."

His hard cultivation over this period of time had yielded an enormous harvest.

Even in the foreseeable future, his pace of cultivation would only get faster!

Getting into a university after senior high wasn't a problem for Fang Xing.

The key was to get into a good university!

"The best universities in the Federation should be 'Blue Star University' on Blue Star, while 'Holy Armor University' and 'Nine Swords Academy' located in the Cosmic Secret Realm are also top-tier institutions..."

Fang Xing silently recalled the relevant information.

The original host's biggest dream was to buy a house on Blue Star, followed by getting into any university, not daring to dream about which school, as long as it was a university.

But Fang Xing clearly understood how important it was to get into a university!

A leap in social class, all in one move!

Even though he had an Otherworld, getting into a university would help him utilize the resources of the Otherworld even more efficiently.

Not to mention anything else, he could first set up a top-notch biological research institute to study the elixirs of the Otherworld, without having to take risks by the infirmary anymore.

Even though he had poison testing paper and lab rats, for Fang Xing, consuming elixirs was still a risk.

And his life was clearly more precious than anything.

After getting out of bed and washing up, Fang Xing habitually performed the Great Dragon Stance.

'Mastering' the Great Dragon Stance felt entirely different from being 'Skilled' at it.

If 'Skilled' level Great Dragon Stance merely gave him a sense of proficiency and a unique flair with every movement,

'Master' level Great Dragon Stance no longer required Fang Xing to adapt to this Pile Method; it automatically adjusted itself in several spots to fit him better!

It's known that every person's constitution is different. Although Great Dragon Stance is claimed to be Perfect after brain simulations, it's mostly based on the average person.

Now, Fang Xing's practice could be considered the 'Fang Xing Special Edition,' tailor-made for him, with effects and progress that were incomparable to the generic version.

"With such a level of Great Dragon Stance, no wonder it can temper 'Jade Skin'... although I've already achieved it."

After performing the Pile Skill, feeling the harmony in his flesh and skin, Fang Xing suddenly reached up and touched his face.

In the next moment, the flesh on his face began to undulate.

His cheeks became a bit rounder, his eyebrows more elongated... in an instant, he transformed from a green-faced youth into a gloomy man in his twenties!

"After refining most of the muscles, controlling the facial muscles and skin can easily achieve a transformation..."

This was an essential secret technique for travel, killing, and arson!

...

Yucai High School.

"Students, today we will start with the cultural exams. Everybody, do your best."

Teacher Lan Fei had changed into another set of professional attire, with black stockings, high heels, and glasses, exuding a special elite temperament: "And remember... no cheating, the punishment is very severe."

'I always feel she's gotten more tempting... lately, with my rapid growth in Qi and Blood, my evil spirit is a bit fiery...'

Fang Xing answered the papers expressionlessly and speedily.

There were many subjects to be tested in high school.

Universal language, interstellar survival, Evil God Species Atlas, maintenance and repair of various weapons, battlefield first aid...

Each subject had its own paper, to be completed in a single morning, with only about half an hour of answer time for each subject.

Rustle!

But for these high school students, it was all too familiar.

For a while, the classroom was filled only with the sounds of pens on paper.

Even the seemingly unreliable Liu Wei was writing furiously.

As Martial Artists, they had incredible wrist strength and wrote quickly, their minds active...

Still, completing a test paper in half an hour was quite difficult.

After all, the difficulty of the exam was tailored to their abilities, challenging them to their limits, all to select the best students!

As for cheating?

The classroom was now under full surveillance, making cheating virtually impossible.

"Thankfully, I've seen this question before..."

"Mm, this one is relatively simple as well..."

"The last one is a bit tricky; it's just that the calculations are somewhat complex..."

Fang Xing wrote swiftly.

As a late first-realm master, his Martial Arts cultivation was high, allowing him to sustain such intense concentration on the test.

"Time's up!"

Time quickly reached noon, and Fang Xing set aside his electronic pen, walked out of the classroom, and planned to buy something quick to eat for lunch.

'Have to say, even though the ingredients from Otherworlds are fresher and more nutritious... my cooking skills are average.'

'Just by taste alone, the dishes from the Blue Star Federation are superior... Let alone the fact that I'm poor and have never truly experienced the nutrient-rich medicinal meals of Blue Star that are boasted to be both delicious and nutritious...'

'Even the entirety of Chuying Star is just an ordinary planet... Even the planet's richest man is nothing when compared to the whole Blue Star Federation.'

He nibbled on a meat roll while looking at his classmates.

Bai Lang, Yi An, Qian Xun, Ouyang Qianqian, Bai Lianyi, Cole, Liu Wei...

"Huh?"

Was it an illusion? Fang Xing always felt that Liu Wei seemed... a bit more confident today?

"Fang Xing..."

Cole strode over, "I'm looking forward to our match in the combat practice this afternoon."

The afternoon combat practice was an elimination competition; as long as both won consecutively, they would eventually meet.

By the afternoon, teachers from the whole school gathered in droves, with Xia Long notably among them.

"The first-year combat assessment begins now! There are ten arenas; those whose names are called come up. You may not use armor or weapons, elixirs... everything else is at your discretion."

Xia Long's voice boomed like a bell, vibrating the air around him, then he revealed a sinister smile, "You can fight to the death if you wish, let's see if us teachers of fourth realm and above can save you in time... There are no taboos here; of course, those who do so can forget about getting high scores for moral character and behavior..."

'This seems like indulgence, but it's actually a reminder.'

Fang Xing mused upon seeing this.

Before long, the battle roster was announced.

Glancing over, he noticed there was a trick.

'All the seeded players are arranged to not encounter each other until later... usually, they'd only meet at the end.'

Fang Xing looked at the giant electronic screen, nodding and shaking his head, "But it's just a school-wide grade, somewhat rudimentary... This isn't bad, either."

"Number one arena, first group, Delis versus Cao Xiong!"

"Number two arena, Qing Yun faces Hong Ke!"

...

Soon, the Martial Arts teachers took their seats around the arenas to begin today's matches.

Fang Xing had no time to observe the likes of Liu Wei and the other students, as his name was quickly called.

"Number eight arena, Fang Xing versus Phoenix!"

Fang Xing stepped onto the arena and saw a red-haired girl opposite.

The opponent, clad in a tight black outfit that highlighted her exquisite figure, with eyes as blue as the ocean and skin as white and smooth as milk, was undoubtedly a stunning beauty.

"So it's her, the beauty of class 4..."

He felt a stir in his heart and performed a courtesy bow, "Phoenix, I look forward to your guidance!"

"Please, Fang Xing!"

Phoenix returned the bow and immediately took the initiative to strike!

Slap!

Her hands spread like the wings of a phoenix, tearing the air.

Military Boxing Twelve Styles—Broken Wing Hand!

Military boxing, a compulsory subject in high school, encompasses a wide range, including fist, palm, leg, movement techniques, and finger strikes.

Phoenix's Broken Wing Hand seemed ordinary at first glance, but it carried a subtle sense of mastery, indicating deep proficiency in this technique.

Fang Xing twisted his body and miraculously dodged at the last moment.

"Good lad..."

On a nearby arena, Xia Long watched this fight with a side glance and chuckled softly, "Not only is his Pile Skill solid, but his military boxing seems to have reached a masterly level as well..."

After dodging the strike, Fang Xing prepared to end the fight quickly.

He slightly lifted his right leg, like a huge axe cleaving the air.

Phoenix, feeling the sharpness coming towards her, showed a hint of shock on her face.

Battle Axe Leg!

Thump!

She barely crossed her arms in front of her chest to shield herself, then flew backwards to the edge of the arena. She rolled back to her feet but her right arm drooped limply.

"Still not conceding?"

Fang Xing frowned; though he had held back with his kick, the opponent's right hand should have been broken.

Faced with such a gap, the rational choice would be to concede.

"Concede? To us bio-engineered humans, every point is extremely important; how could I concede?"

Phoenix's eyes held a hint of madness, her remaining left hand stabbing forward like a spear.

'Hmm? Seems like she's also used some kind of hypnotic or body-sacrificing secret technique?'

Fang Xing felt a tinge of sorrow witnessing this.

For bio-engineered humans like her, indeed, they need to seize every chance with all their might!

Even in defeat, showing an unyielding spirit is important, as it might lead to higher scores later!

Perhaps to a natural person, this wouldn't matter, but to a bio-engineered human, a single point can determine their destiny!
