The moment Meng Chao pounced on him, Zuo Haoran shrank his body and changed his force execution style. He switched from the unyielding and powerful Reckless Bull Force to the Dragon Snake Force, which accumulated strength.
A series of explosions that sounded like firecrackers went off in his body. It was as if a python that had been lurking for ten years had finally turned into an aquatic dragon.
Even his spine bulged out of his flesh like an aquatic dragon baring its fangs and claws. It looked like it was about to fly into the sky.
A ruthless and excited expression appeared on Zuo Haoran's face. With a growl, he moved his spine and threw a strange punch with his right fist.
It was like a steel nail that pierced through bones. It went straight for Meng Chao's ribs.
Before Hammer Heart even hit, Zuo Haoran could already see Meng Chao twitching on the ground, vomiting, and crying.
The most amazing thing was that when his father taught him this move, he also taught him a few variations so that hidden force could linger in his body for a long time. If he did not perform a thorough examination, he would not be able to notice it.
Over the next few days, aside from the pain under his ribs, Meng Chao would not notice anything wrong.
When he noticed it, it would be too late. He would have no proof, and if he denied it, no one would be able to do anything to him.
The boy had just recovered from his old injuries, and now, he was injured again. Haha! Forget about getting into college, he might not even be able to get into a higher vocational college!
Zuo Haoran thought happily.
Then, he saw a pair of eyes.
They were as cunning as a hunter's, as cold as a butcher's, as brutal as a monster's, and as calm as a doctor's.
With those eyes, Meng Chao seemed to have instantly become another person.
From a high school student, he turned into someone who had returned from the apocalypse.
His force execution method also switched from Ripple Force to Reckless Bull Force. It was even smoother and more secretive than Zuo Haoran's switch.
No, it was not Reckless Bull Force, but Master Level Reckless Bull Force, which came from the future!
Yes, the contribution points he had gotten from the future Ripple Force were enough for him to increase the level of a few of his basic skills. The first skill he chose was Reckless Bull Force, which had great force and could destroy everything!
Zuo Haoran felt as if his chest had been rammed by a charging rhinoceros.
Meng Chao's fist was like the horn of a rhinoceros. The force went from his chest to his back.
"Kacha!" Zuo Haoran's spine was heavily injured.
He flew high into the air like a kite with its string snapped. He crashed into a sapling and fell to the ground, looking like a pile of mud that Meng Chao had just stomped on.
"…"
Zuo Haoran widened his eyes and stared blankly at the sky.
The sky was still the same, but his world was rapidly collapsing.
Confusion, annoyance, regret, unwillingness, pain, hatred, sourness, sweetness, bitterness, spiciness, saltiness, all kinds of emotions flowed freely on his pale face.
He was like a fish that had been washed ashore by the waves. He opened his mouth wide and breathed frantically, but he could not inhale any oxygen. His upper body was burning in pain, but his lower body was gradually turning cold and disappearing. The two completely opposite feelings made his eyes widen, and his mind was filled with crazy and desperate thoughts.
Meng Chao walked over and slowly wiped off the blood from his nose. In the meantime, he covered the sky.
"You …" Zuo Haoran's face was full of resentment, and he gradually came to a realization.
"Yeah, during the test just now, I held back my strength. I just went up and casually used a few moves," Meng Chao admitted.
"Why?" Zuo Haoran could not understand it no matter what.
"This is just the first stage of the national college examination. I'm not interested in showing off at such a low level. Besides, what if my performance is too good and you don't want to fight against me?" Meng Chao shrugged.
"You did it on purpose! You set me up!" Zuo Haoran's eyes nearly popped out of his sockets.
"That's right. I intentionally got the second place in the class so that I could test my gun technique with you. Then, we could leave the exam area together. The homeroom teacher and the other students stayed there, so no one could disturb our 'sparring'."
Meng Chao crouched down and sighed. "But I still gave you a chance. Before we sparred, didn't I tell you that we would stop when it was appropriate and write off all our grudges? Don't doubt me. I was serious. If you weren't so despicable as to use such a heavy method to cripple me, you wouldn't have had to suffer the consequences of your actions. "
"I-I …" Zuo Haoran's face was full of shock.
The unknown was the greatest fear.
Right now, he was filled with the unknown about the area below his waist.
"Your spine should have cracked, but your organs aren't bleeding, so your life isn't in danger. Don't worry," Meng Chao said.
"With Dragon City's medical technology, even if your spine is fractured, it's not an incurable disease. If you hire a famous doctor and rest for two years, it shouldn't be a problem for you to regain the ability to move like a normal person." It's naturally difficult for you to cultivate, get into college, and become a superhuman. But I think that it's better for people like you not to become superhumans. It's good for you and society. "
"You …" Zuo Haoran shuddered uncontrollably.
In his eyes, Meng Chao, who had devoured half the sky, was like a demon in human skin.
But Meng Chao was telling the truth.
Just then, two notifications had popped up in his field of vision.
[You injured Zuo Haoran, a normal citizen. You might save a lot of soldiers' lives in the future. Increased contribution points by 99.
[The future cannot be predicted. Fate is filled with ups and downs. Changes made in the distant future will contribute little to the current civilization. Only by controlling the present can you create the future.]
'That's right,' Meng Chao thought.
'I crippled Zuo Haoran, so he won't be able to get into college and become a superhuman. It's also impossible for him to be in charge of the defense of an entire frontline. In the end, he deserted and caused a lot of soldiers to die.
'But this is just a possibility in the future.
'If I use the butterfly effect to describe it, my return to the past has already changed too many things. Who can say for sure what will happen in the distant future?
'So, I did contribute, but it's not a lot. It's better for me to teach the elite citizens future martial arts. That way, I'll get immediate results.'
With this thought in mind, Meng Chao cast Zuo Haoran a pitiful glance.
Did he save the class rep?
Even though he was heavily injured and might not be able to become a superhuman for the rest of his life …
On the other hand, he might not have the chance to become a traitor and be despised by the people. He might not be pinned to the pillar of shame forever.
As a normal person, he was able to live a normal life in Dragon City, which was becoming more and more prosperous day by day. That was not necessarily a form of luck.
No matter what, the grudge between him and the class rep had been resolved, so Meng Chao was no longer interested in Zuo Haoran.
"Lie down and don't move. I'll go call the school doctor. Oh, you can't move either." Meng Chao walked out of the grove.
Zuo Haoran finally coughed up blood.
His originally handsome and righteous pretty boy face was now a mess of tears, snot, and blood.
But when Meng Chao was halfway there, he suddenly turned around.
"I almost forgot something."
He patted Zuo Haoran's body all over the place. Soon, he brought out a recording pen from his pocket.
Meng Chao whistled. "Look, our class rep is really good at learning. You've learned how to secretly record things as well?"
Crack!
He crushed the recording pen and carefully put all the parts into his pocket. He patted Zuo Haoran's body again to make sure that he did not have a second recording pen. Then, satisfied, he left.
Zuo Haoran was in complete despair. Aside from using his head to hit the soft sand so that his face was covered in dirt, he could do nothing else.
Ten minutes later.
Not only did the school doctor come, the homeroom teacher, Demon Yan, the teaching director, Principal Sun, and all the students from Class 6 who had just finished their test came.
The bloody stench in the depths of the grove shocked them.
The students sucked in sharp breaths. The homeroom teacher was scared out of his wits. Demon Yan scowled, and his face turned incredibly dark. The teaching director flew into a rage and looked as if he was about to have a heart attack.
Even Principal Sun, who had been dozing off, opened his eyes, which was a rare sight. He looked at Meng Chao and Zuo Haoran a few times.
"Lawless! Simply lawless! How dare you beat someone up like this?"
The teaching director was about to go mad with anger. When he saw his heavily injured nephew, he wanted to tear Meng Chao apart. "Student affairs department, hurry up and take control of the student who committed the crime! Wang Longjun, is this how you teach your students? I-Is he still a student? He's a murderer! He's a criminal! He's … "
He was so angry that he started burping. He personally brought two teachers from the student affairs department to pounce on Meng Chao fiercely.
The homeroom teacher wanted to stop them, but he could not find a reason to do so. He could only rub his hands and walk around in circles. "What should we do? Meng Chao, you're too rash!"
The students looked at each other at a loss. They were speechless.
Yes, the class rep had gone a little overboard with his words. Even if the two of them fought until their heads bled, they were still willing to speak up for Meng Chao. They were not afraid even if they were in front of Principal Sun and the teaching director.
But breaking a person's spine was a little overboard, wasn't it?
Of course, there were also people who were curious. "How did Meng Chao suddenly become so strong that he could even cripple the class rep?"
The person in question was calm and relaxed. He crossed his arms and stood there. Even when the teachers from the student affairs department came over, he did not care. He only took two steps back.
"What? Are you thinking about fighting back?" the teaching director asked fiercely.
"Meng Chao, don't keep making mistakes!" the homeroom teacher quickly said.
"No, it's not a problem for me to go to the student affairs department. Things have already escalated to this extent, and I do have some responsibility that I can't shirk," Meng Chao said slowly.
"But I still have to bring out some evidence in front of everyone, or else, I won't even know if someone destroys it in secret. Mr. Yan, I trust you the most. Please look under the trees with cloth strips tied to them. I've placed eight super high-definition mini cameras there. They should have recorded the fight just now from various angles. You'll know what happened with just one look."
Everyone was a little stunned.
The teaching director was a little dumbfounded. "Why did you place the cameras?"
Meng Chao smiled. "The class rep and I didn't fight to settle our personal grudges. We were just sparring because we wanted to improve together. The class rep is so good, and it's rare for me to have the chance to spar against him. I naturally have to record everything from all angles so that I can analyze it carefully when I go back.
