I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

"Teacher Xue!"

Upon seeing Xue Jing, the crowd's previously flustered and uneasy minds immediately calmed down, and they all surrounded him.

"Teacher Xue, where did you go? Xu Zixuan was suddenly knocked down and has exited the exam!"

"So what happened?"

Xue Jing thought for a moment and said, "I was the one who did it."

"How could this be!?" Everyone's eyes widened immediately, somewhat incredulous.

Cao Sini was about to speak, but after hearing what the others said next, she stopped herself.

"Xu Zixuan was actually a traitor!?"

He Han sighed, "There are bad guys in the team."

Ye Jingqiu affirmed, "No wonder I always felt he was a bit strange. He basically didn't interact with anyone, and his words were quite sharp. He definitely had a problem!"

"He was the one who started the conversation, and then he took the opportunity to sneak away to do something bad, but Teacher Xue found out!"

Xue Jing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled helplessly, "...Aren't you going to listen to the reason first?"

These students trusted him way too much.

They didn't even know the specific reasons, but they heard that he personally dealt with Xu Zixuan, so they concluded that it was Xu Zixuan's own problem.

"Then tell me, what exactly did that scoundrel Xu Zixuan do?"

...Have you already decided that Xu Zixuan is a scoundrel before even starting to talk about it?

Xue Jing rubbed his chin and said, "It's a long story, but I'll keep it short..."

He began to recount the things Xu Zixuan had done.

He first gave a brief explanation of the cause and effect, saying that he had offended some powerful forces because of some things he had done in the past, which was why he was transferred to the Seventh Metropolitan Area to be an examiner. Xu Zixuan was sent by these forces.

He then briefly recounted what had just happened, explaining that Xu Zixuan had tried to harm him, but he had instead killed him.

Cao Sini, the only person in the know, chimed in with a few words, saying things like "Teacher Xue had given him a chance," and that she had previously followed Chen Xingyan's team to monitor Xu Zixuan as evidence.

After hearing this, everyone was somewhat angry.

"That damned bastard Xu Zixuan! Teacher Xue treated him so well, how dare he do such a thing!"

"He only has himself to blame... I'll whip his corpse wherever he dies!"

"He deserves to die a thousand deaths, but his death is not a pity!"

Xue Jing looked at the students' behavior and didn't know what to say.

This worship and trust has gone too far... Even if everything he says is true, if he were to lie and Xu Zixuan were actually wronged, these students would still believe his one-sided story.

Thinking of this, Xue Jing couldn't help but frown.

He only took care of these students because of a teacher-student relationship. He wanted to teach them something during this short period of time, purely out of good intentions. He didn't want to get anything from them, nor did he want to support a group of his own fanatics.

This outcome was not what he intended.

My damn charm...

"...Why was it only Sini who knew beforehand?"

Ye Jingqiu pouted and said jealously.

"Teacher Xue is biased."

Others chimed in:

"Miss Cao is indeed the one who is favored."

"I can do that too!"

"That's wonderful... I also really want to have a little secret with Teacher Xue that's just between the two of us..."

Cao Sini crossed her arms and remained silent, simply turning her head slightly away from the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd, especially the girls.

Chen Xingyan sighed and said, "It's not that Teacher Xue is biased, but only Miss Cao would know about this."

"First of all, not too many people can know about this, otherwise it will be easily noticed. Moreover, once others know about Xu Zixuan's problem, their daily attitude towards him will inevitably change."

"Only Miss Cao, who is cold to everyone, will not let Xu Zixuan notice anything unusual."

"She is also the strongest among us, and has the ability to monitor Xu Zixuan."

"This is the result of Professor Xue's careful consideration. It is not a matter of favoritism. Please do not overthink it."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

"So that's it..."

"As expected of Teacher Xue, he always manages to easily consider problems that we wouldn't even think of!"

"Teacher Xue is amazing!"

The students looked at Xue Jing with admiration, except for Zhao Longtu, who had some objections to Chen Xingyan's words, thinking that the strongest student under Teacher Xue might not necessarily be Cao Sini.

Xue Jing: "..."

He hadn't thought that far ahead; Xu Zixuan was no match for him.

I mentioned it to Cao Sini, it was just a casual thing, nothing special.

He coughed lightly, clapped his hands, and said:

"Alright, let's hurry to the next area, or we won't have much time to rest..."

……

Nothing particularly noteworthy happened in the following days.

Following Xue Jing's plan, the students in Xue Jing's class proceeded steadily, disbanding into small teams after each mobile mission to 'hunt' in the vicinity.

During the three-day training session, Xue Jing continuously instructs all students on martial arts techniques, including giving them a serious punch and teaching them martial arts skills and even practical combat experience tailored to their individual characteristics.

The "enlightenment" is such a cheating skill that it can directly impart not only insights into martial arts but also practical combat experience that belongs to physical memory.

However, considering that everyone has different mental capacity and the scale of experience that each person can accept is different.

Their combat experience surpassed that of students in other classes, coupled with the unexpected move of a serious punch that could turn the tide of battle, and the various other 'Xue Jing-level' martial arts killing moves taught to them by Xue Jing, all of which were cheat codes completely beyond their current level.

When all the students encountered candidates from other teams, they were surprised to find that the candidates outside their own class were actually quite weak.

Almost every time, they achieved a crushing victory.

Furthermore, due to Xue Jing's massacre that night, many classes of examinees no longer had the guidance and protection of examiners. They were already in a state of mental collapse, and when they encountered Xue Jing's monster class, they all became targets for score-farming.

The further into the future, the greater the impact of resource shortages will be.

The students, who were well-fed at Xue Jing's place every day, acted without any restraint. Other candidates, on the other hand, had to consider the consumption of resources and their own energy, and were full of worries. When they encountered each other in battle, they dared not throw too hard, for fear of starving to death after the fight.

As a result, the students in Xue Jing's class performed better and better as time went on, while the others performed worse, making Xue Jing's advantage more and more obvious.

Xue Jing originally had a steel tree seed, thinking he could secretly help the students using the plant contract, but he didn't even have the chance. Very few students had ever encountered danger, and when they did, they basically solved it on their own.

Among them, the one who racked up the most points was Cao Sini, who acted alone.

Following Xue Jing's plan, she was tasked with becoming the King of Defeat. She focused intently on the task at hand and hardly rested along the way. After completing each mission, she would immediately leave to hunt.

When they got tired, they would return to Xue Jing's side, where he would use the power of the Dragon Cherry to replenish their life force, and then they would continue their journey.

Almost all the other candidate teams that encountered her were wiped out.

In just a few days, his knockdown count has reached nearly two hundred people, his individual score is full, and his knockdown count far surpasses that of the second place.

Occasionally, those who escaped from her clutches would spread the word of her exploits, and the many examinees in the Sea of ​​Steel Tree would fearfully call her 'the female demon under the Demon King's command'.

Led by Cao Sini, the entire Xue Jing class was like a killer whale that had accidentally entered shallow waters, swallowing up everything small fish and shrimp it encountered.

The number of test takers in the Steel Tree Sea Examination Area is decreasing at a rapid pace.

However, due to the large number of team members, the team points earned from knockdowns had to be divided equally among everyone. Despite the large number of knockdowns, the team's average team points ranking was still not high, placing only eighth.

Currently ranked first is an elite four-person team from Li Suisui's class.

Given the current situation, since there are few 'prey' and only those who personally defeat them will receive individual points, the individual points of the vast majority of students in Xue Jing's class are not high.

If this continues, only a few students in Xue Jing's class will be able to achieve good rankings after the exams.

Despite this, as the exam days passed and the end date drew near, no student questioned Xue Jing's decision.

They all believed that Teacher Xue was definitely right and would lead them all to achieve excellent results in the martial arts exam.

Or rather, it doesn't matter if you don't get good results.

My martial arts exam results seem insignificant compared to the fact that I met Teacher Xue and became his student.

Chapter 349 Xue Maomao in 36D, 'Lion Eyes' Shen Tu Guang (4K)

In the quiet steel forest, a group of people were strolling leisurely.

"There's a word that's the dream of every man in the world. Do you know what it is?"

A hint of melancholy appeared on Zhao Longtu's fierce face as he asked.

Upon hearing this, He Han, who was in the same squad as him, subconsciously asked, "36D?"

Zhao Longtu glanced at him expressionlessly: "No, it's 'the strongest'."

"Although as time goes by, people will gradually come to terms with reality and give up on this dream, every man has fantasized about becoming the 'strongest in the world'."

He Han said casually, "Oh, you mean this? I thought you were talking about that."

Chen Xingyan casually asked, "Why did you suddenly bring this up?"

Zhao Longtu sighed, somewhat conflicted: "Although I'm not the strongest in the world, I should be the strongest in the class. I can do what Cao Sini can do. Why don't you think Teacher Xue chose me?"

Upon hearing this, He Han and Chen Xingyan exchanged a glance.

"TuTu, things might not be as you think."

He Han put his arm around Zhao Longtu's shoulder, considered his words carefully, and then spoke.
