"He's not even thirteen years old yet... I heard before that he was almost breaking his limit twice."
"He's a monster. How can a human break through the limits before their skeleton is fully developed?"
Xue Jing's eyes brightened slightly as he looked at the aircraft that was slowly descending and attracting everyone's attention.
The strongest elementary school student on earth... He'd heard about it for a long time and was quite looking forward to it.
……
Chapter 335 Li Suisui, the Kid, Enters the Sea of Steel (4K)
The large aircraft landed slowly, and the hatch opened.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a short figure slowly emerged from within.
He was less than 1.6 meters tall, wearing a dark blue martial arts uniform. Under his short hair, which was less than half a finger long, was an extremely young and childlike face.
No… to be precise, he really is just a little kid.
Li Suisui.
An unprecedented martial arts genius, the strongest elementary school student on earth, no one in history has ever achieved what he has at the same age, surpassing the limits of human understanding of the human body, a chosen one deeply loved by martial arts.
At less than thirteen years old, he has been practicing martial arts since he was eight. In less than five years, he has already achieved two leaps over the Dragon Gate and two transformations between heaven and man, breaking through the second limit of his spirit and body!
Indeed... Only a few people know that just a few days ago, during his challenge against Heavenly Lord Yu Ruoying in the first level of the Extreme Martial Heavenly Palace, he successfully broke through his limits for the second time and reached a completely new realm.
This is yet another world record that far surpasses previous records.
"...What a hassle. They actually made me, a child, do this kind of thing. This country is beyond saving. Child labor laws are just a formality."
Li Suisui stepped out of the cabin, ignoring the attention he was used to, and sighed.
Dozens of students who looked quite remarkable followed him out. Each of them was older than Li Suisui, but they had never been the center of attention before, and they seemed a little nervous under the gaze of the crowd.
Among Zhou Yinglin's group of members from the Secret Martial Arts Society, one of them waved and shouted to Li Suisui from afar:
"Hey, Li, come here."
Li Suisui frowned as if she found it troublesome, but still turned around, waved to the students, told them to wait in place, and walked over.
"Hey, it's been months. You seem to have gotten even stronger. You're a monster."
One of them laughed and reached out to touch the head of the short Li Suisui.
Snapped--
Pushing aside her unclean little hands, Li Suisui spoke calmly:
"I now deeply understand what my teacher said: half of life is trouble, and the other half is about solving trouble."
"Oh my, you little kid, you're quite profound." Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw him say such things with such a young appearance.
Li Suisui glanced at them and said noncommittally:
"Living a long life and being old is not a virtue. I suggest you don't make such jokes so easily, or your face will easily swell up later."
"As mentioned above, this operation is entirely under my command, and you must follow my orders... Do you understand what I mean?"
The examiners exchanged bewildered glances: "Isn't it just the literal meaning?"
Li Suisui said calmly, "Are you all just kids who can't even understand what I'm saying?"
Being called a child by such a child was quite difficult to handle, and everyone felt a little awkward.
"The meaning from above is very clear: they trust me, who is much younger, more than you who are many years older than me."
“You should be ashamed of this, instead of laughing at my young age... I don’t want this to happen again.”
Those who met Li Suisui for the first time all looked rather unpleasant; they hadn't expected this kid to be so sharp-tongued.
Those who already knew Li Suisui touched their nose and said with a wry smile, "Still so eloquent."
Seeing that no one was looking down on him anymore, Li Suisui continued:
"You should all know our purpose this time, right?"
As he spoke, he looked around and quickly locked his gaze in one direction.
There stood an incredibly handsome young man, looking in his direction, and their eyes met.
The boy smiled and nodded at him, as if to greet him.
Although there are some differences between his appearance in real life and in the videos, there is no doubt that the person is Xue Jing.
"Weren't we supposed to kill Xue Jing?"
Zhou Yinglin hesitated before speaking.
Li Suisui glanced at him: "Childish!"
"You're always shouting for violence. You're supposed to be a big shot from the First Metropolitan Area, but your brain is more like that of a warrior from the Seventh Metropolitan Area. No wonder you're being used without even realizing it."
Zhou Yinglin's lips twitched, but he did not refute.
"We are just members of the Secret Martial Arts Society, not the Society itself. If we really want to serve the Society loyally, we should wait until we are in a high position and have a strong stake in it. We're nowhere near that point yet."
"The old conservatives wanted Xue Jing dead, but their real purpose was to prevent him from being absorbed by the reformists, whose policies were clearly biased towards them. All other reasons were just superficial."
"Others who want him dead also have their own strong vested interests and reasons...and what about you?"
"I just asked you for a favor, and you actually went up to the ring like a puppy, wanting to kill him... Did you think about the consequences? Did you think about how the person standing behind Xue Jing would react?"
"Being used as a pawn and forced to take the blame without even realizing it is truly pathetic and naive."
Li Suisui shook her head.
Zhou Yinglin hardened his fist.
But the thought that even the hardest man couldn't be as hard as this kid made her soften up again.
"...Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Our goal is to deal with Xue Jing, but we can't kill him directly. We have to see how things go," Li Suisui said calmly.
"We have to satisfy the old conservatives, but at the same time, we can't completely offend the people behind him."
No longer did they underestimate this person who had the appearance of a child but was clearly much more mature than them, and they all asked, "What do you want to do?"
Li Suisui gave them a strange look: "Is that even a question? It would be best to capture him alive, hand him over to the higher-ups, and by the way, suggest that they use Xue Jing to make a deal with that person, and see if they can get back that Primordial Wind of All Things... Anyway, what happens after that is largely none of our business. Whether Xue Jing lives or dies is the result of their mutual game."
Someone hesitated and said, "Isn't capturing them alive... a bit against the rules?"
They originally intended to kill Xue Jing by participating in the martial arts exam because it was a 'legal way' to kill him, within the 'rules' and had a reason, rather than randomly and without reason coming to his door, which would have broken the rules.
This presents a peculiar problem: killing Xue Jing is within the rules, but capturing him alive is somewhat outside the rules.
With the martial arts exam over and Xue Jing still alive, there was no reason for the group to continue targeting him. If they were to tie him up and take him back to their superiors at this point, it would be considered an act outside the rules.
"Half and half, not entirely according to the rules, not entirely against the rules, it's a borderline situation... Do you want to kill Xue Jing and offend that person, or do you want to break these rules and get away with it? I don't need to teach you how to choose, do I?"
Li Suisui said.
Zhou Yinglin said in a low voice, somewhat unwillingly, "...Xue Jing is not easy to deal with."
Li Suisui said, "I know he is a recipient of a gift... This time, the higher-ups gave me a wisp of the Primordial Wind of All Things to deal with him. On the battlefield, since he can only use his physical martial arts, he is not a threat."
"What we need to pay attention to is the reformists..."
He looked toward Wei Yuzhao beside him and saw the tall man exuding a bloodthirsty aura.
"As expected, those who came were from the 'Crimson Lineage'... This group can intercept the Primordial Wind of All Things with their overflowing blood energy, minimizing the impact of the 'Power of Return,' making them the least restrained by the Primordial Wind of All Things."
"The focus of our operation this time is actually on how to deal with him."
"Therefore, we must prepare for both possibilities based on the worst-case scenario."
Li Suisui said.
"Given the possibility that our operation against Xue Jing might fail, we need to implement a backup plan."
"If he successfully leads his students to achieve good results in the martial arts exam, he will have replicated that person's path. Out of respect for the elders, the old conservatives will no longer be able to openly target him in the future."
"Therefore... we must first ruin the grades of his students."
……
Xue Jing paid no attention to the group of people who were obviously plotting how to deal with him. He only glanced curiously at the child named Li Suisui before looking away.
He calculated the time using his precise biological clock and muttered to himself:
"It's almost time..."
As soon as the words were spoken, the official staff member at the entrance of the 'Sea of Steel' immediately stood up, grabbed a megaphone, and shouted to the entire area:
"All candidates, come here to collect your exam supplies!"
Dozens of officials carried piles of supplies to the front and began distributing them to all the candidates who had come.
As the examiner, Xue Jing did not approach, but instead glanced at what each student had received.
A small green backpack filled with food and water. It doesn't look like it contains much, enough for at most two days... and that's without expending a lot of energy.
A black bracelet, a tight-fitting tactical garment... the material looks very similar to the tactical uniforms worn by Bai Ya and Zhige personnel.
After receiving her exam supplies, Cao Sini changed her clothes in the small cubicle provided by the authorities, walked up to Xue Jing, and pressed the black bracelet on her wrist.
A holographic image appeared above the bracelet, displaying some information.
[Candidate Name: Cao Sini]
[Teammates: Undetermined]
[Current Task: Undetermined]
Current score: 0
"...Teacher, I'm ready."
Cao Sini looked at Xue Jing, her long, sharp eyebrows softening, and spoke in a low voice.
Her tight-fitting black tactical uniform perfectly showcased her figure, and even some classmates who were usually hesitant to approach her because of her fierce expression couldn't help but take a second look.
Xue Jing glanced at her and smiled, "You'll have to work hard this time, Sini."
