Chapter 15
“I’ll apply for the school’s special scholarship for you, it’s 30,000 yuan. You’ll probably get the money in a few days.
As for the class schedule, I need to discuss it with school administration , but it shouldn’t be a problem.
After all, you are a genius. Geniuses should have some privileges.”
Zhong Zhenguo quickly responded to Lu Sheng’s request.
“Besides, I can make you another promise.
If you can get a good ranking at the national college entrance exam for Baihe third highschool in the city during the college entrance examination, the school will give you an additional reward.
And during this period before the college entrance examination, if you have any material requirements, you can also propose them to the school.
As long as they are not too excessive, the school can meet your needs.
Personally, I can also provide you with some assistance.”
Zhong Zhenguo made this statement with a rather formal expression, as if he is already seeing Lu Sheng as an equal.
Lu Sheng could understand the reason behind Zhong Zhenguo’s actions.
For a student like him with boundless possibilities, now is undoubtedly the best time and also the opportunity to win him over with the least cost.
“Thank you so much, Mr. Zhong, for everything you’ve done for me today.”
Lu Sheng expressed his gratitude, thought for a moment, and added, “There’s one more thing, Teacher Zhong. I hope my current grades and the treatment I receive at school can be temporarily kept secret from my family…”
Zhong Zhenguo nodded.
“I understand.”
Martial artists could understand the sudden surge in Lu Sheng’s strength, but it might be different when placed in an ordinary family.
If Lu Sheng’s parents were to investigate thoroughly, it might cause trouble and affect Lu Sheng’s progress in martial arts training. It’s not something that people wants to see
“If there’s nothing else, Mr. Zhong, I’ll take my leave.”
“Go ahead.”
Zhong Zhenguo waved his hand, watching Lu Sheng leave the office.
A few minutes after Lu Sheng left, Zhong Zhenguo, who was sitting in the chair, suddenly jumped up.
The calmness on his face disappeared, replaced by intense joy and satisfaction.
“Lu Sheng! we actually have a Lu Sheng at Baihe third highschool!”
A formal first-level martial artist under eighteen! With a combat power close to two hundred!”
Before the college entrance examination, we have to keep Lu Sheng hidden, treat him as a secret weapon. When the college entrance examination comes, we’ll give a big shock to the people from first and second high schools. Haha, thinking about their expressions at that time makes me excited…”
“I need to inform the principal about this great news.”
Zhong Zhenguo walked out of the office with a face full of excitement.
….
When Lu Sheng returned to the classroom, the practical combat class had already ended, and all the students had returned to the classroom.
As Lu Sheng walked into the classroom, the previously bustling room suddenly fell silent.
Then, all eyes focused on him…
Lu Sheng calmly walked back to his seat.
The moment he sat down, the quiet classroom gradually became noisy again.
It was identical to a fiery dragon that had descended on a village of peasants, muting their screams.
And when the fiery dragon rested, the panicking peasants would sigh in relief and would return to their noisy state.
Lu Sheng was that fiery dragon.
Shortly after Lu Sheng sat down, he saw Yang Yifei, who looked pale, being supported by someone as he limped into the classroom.
Yang Yifei noticed Lu Sheng at a glance, and his eyes immediately showed resentment and hatred.
However, when Lu Sheng’s gaze met his, Yang Yifei quickly shrank away,
obviously frightened by the punch Lu Sheng had delivered during the practical combat class.
On the side, Liu Qiming wanted to come up and talk to Lu Sheng several times
but didn’t dare to speak.
Liu Qiming looked at Lu Sheng, who was sitting in his seat, opening a book and flipping through it casually, feeling somewhat confused.
Suddenly, he realized that his long-time companion had become so unfamiliar… and distant.
…..
In Baihe City, at the central shopping mall,
In the shop named “Martial Elixir Shop”, a young man in a school uniform with a tall and straight figure was browsing the goods behind the counter.
The shop assistant walked up to the young man, politely asking, “Sir, what type of medicine are you looking to purchase?”
The young man raised his head, revealing a handsome and slender face, shaking his head.
“I’m just looking around, not buying.”
“Alright.”
The shop assistant tactfully walked away.
The young man in a school uniform was obviously not a potential customer.
This young man was Lu Sheng, who came here after school to look around.
With a scholarship about to come, Lu Sheng couldn’t wait to plan how to use the money.
Not that he was impatient, but he was eager to enhance his strength.
In recent days, as his body refinement techniques and breathing techniques improved, Lu Sheng increasingly felt a strong “hunger” emanating from his body.
That was the rapid growth of blood value, a sign of systemic deficiency.
Every inch of his muscle cells craved energy.
Although his father, Lu Dahai, had bought him some supplements last week, it was still like a drop in the bucket, providing little relief.
If this “malnutrition” state persisted for a long time, it might cause permanent irreversible damage to the body, and his strength might even decline.
Because martial cultivation was essentially a continuous process of tapping into human potential.
The increased blood values of martial artists were the manifestation of constantly unlocking human potential.
But potential could be depleted. If not replenished in time, it would harm oneself.
The way to replenish it was to consume a large amount of external energy.
Through dietary supplements, medicinal supplements, and other methods.
The energy provided by food is little, most of the energy the human body needs comes from medicine herbs.
However, precious medicinal herbs that were rich in the nutrients needed by the body were quite expensive.
Therefore, the saying “poor in literature, rich in martial arts” is not just a casual proverb.
“Supplements on the market are mainly divided into two types: external application and internal consumption.
External application includes medicinal baths, topical applications, acupuncture, and adhesive types, among others.
Compared to internal supplements, external ones have a milder medicinal nature, are absorbed faster, and have better absorption. However, the operation is cumbersome, conditions are stringent, and with each use, the benefits diminish, requiring constant changes in prescription.
I still prefer internal supplements.”
Lu Sheng mainly focused on tonic medicines.
But the prices of tonic medicines made him frown.
