I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

It's intimidating. Most students would probably wet themselves if they heard this.

However, Xue Jing did not find the other party to be particularly frightening.

The world operates according to its own logic. Once you reach a certain level of understanding, you can easily see through appearances to the essence of things.

Such heinous acts are an absolute taboo in human society. Not to mention having a father who works for a member of the ruling legislature, even the member of the ruling legislature himself would never do it openly, as if he wanted the whole world to know.

Even those at the top of the power structure need to superficially abide by the rules, let alone a mere second-rate school bully on campus?

Ordinary students, who have not yet entered society and lack sufficient understanding, will feel fear upon hearing these rumors. They will add layer upon layer of fear to Pei Youguang in their minds, becoming increasingly afraid of him.

Xue Jing, however, found that the more he listened, the more the other party's true colors were stripped away.

Some people tend to emphasize what they lack most.

"No need to tell the teacher."

"I will have a good talk with Pei Youguang."

Xue Jing said softly.

The school bell rang, and Du Shiwei, the homeroom teacher and Chinese language teacher, walked in.

Chapter 10 Pebbles

This morning's classes are Chinese, English, Physics, and Physical Education.

Unlike Xue Jing's previous life, Zhu Xia seems to place great emphasis on physical education, at least at Qingfu Middle School. There are not only many physical education classes every week, but there is also no situation where physical education teachers are 'asked for leave'.

After three academic classes, and a short break between classes, the entire elite class went to the changing room to change out of their school uniforms into indoor sportswear.

"Wow, those abs!"

A tall classmate wearing glasses was stunned when he saw Xue Jing take off his shirt.

"Wow, Xue Jing, that's impressive! How come I never noticed before that you've trained so well?"

As soon as he spoke, all the male students in the locker room turned their attention to him.

"I go!"

"Jingye is awesome! How did you get such great abs? Teach me, bro."

"First of all, I'm not Nan Tong. Secondly, can I touch it?"

"I envy the future Mrs. Xue."

"Could you take a picture? It's not that I really want to see it, but I have a teenage sister at home who's starving and needs to be fed."

Xue Jing quickly put on a short-sleeved tracksuit, looking speechless: "Can you guys stop being so gay, you idiots."

Li Ge, who was next to him, changed his clothes and teased with a smile: "You're even afraid of jokes. Homophobia means you're closeted. With your looks, it's no wonder everyone is suspicious that you haven't found a girlfriend."

Xue Jing kicked him, sending him staggering: "Get lost."

……

"nice shot!"

Inside the stadium, Xue Jing made a jump shot from a distance. The basketball flew out of his hand and landed accurately in the basket, immediately drawing cheers.

After a brief high-five with his teammates, Xue Jing took a slight breath and glanced at the panel.

[Shot made accurately, aiming experience +2]

[Aiming for Lv1 (78/300)]

The aiming skill that I just activated last night is a game-changer when applied to a sport like basketball that requires precision.

Inside the three-point line, he can make nine out of ten shots even with opponent interference, and he also has a very high probability of making shots from beyond the three-point line. In terms of shooting ability alone, he has already reached a professional level.

Even though he didn't rely on his physical abilities to exert strong pressure, he still left several of his classmates looking utterly hopeless.

Especially with the female students who were resting nearby watching the game.

Even though the female students remained silent and reserved, the embarrassment of being relegated to the background of others trying to show off lingered in their minds.

Xue Jing wasn't the type to show off; he had only intended to have some fun and had no intention of bullying his classmates.

This idea persisted until he made his first shot and saw his aim gain +2.

"Come on, come on, there's still a chance, we can win!"

On the opposing team, Li Ge clapped his hands to encourage his teammates, barely managing to regain some fighting spirit.

The game resumed as soon as the PE teacher blew his whistle.

"Stop him! Stop him! Smash his hat!"

"Eh……"

The students in the elite class were so engrossed in the basketball game that no one noticed several figures in school uniforms walking into the gymnasium through the main entrance.

The leader was a tall, somewhat plump young man. After he came in, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and put it in his mouth. Immediately, someone next to him took out a lighter and lit it for him. The whole process was exactly like a henchman lighting a cigarette for his boss in a movie.

The young man held a cigarette between two fingers, skillfully exhaling smoke. His eyes were slightly narrowed as he watched the basketball game on the court. He spoke:

"Which one is Xue Jing?"

Someone nearby immediately pointed out, "That's him, the one who just shot the ball!"

The portly young man stared at him for a while, then clicked his tongue and said, "This pretty boy looks decent enough; no wonder Shiyu likes him."

Someone nearby hesitated before speaking up, "Brother Pei, maybe we should just forget about it. Xue Jing is in the elite class, and the school..."

Upon hearing this, Pei Youguang turned to look at the person who had spoken, and the latter immediately shut his mouth.

"What's there to be afraid of about schools? Even the principal would have to be polite to my dad. What's there to be afraid of? What's so special about the elite class? I, Pei Youguang, can kill him if I want to!"

Pei Youguang took a drag of his cigarette and spoke with a firm and resounding voice, full of confidence and domineering presence.

His underlings were immediately captivated by his charisma and showed expressions of admiration.

"Let's go. Just acknowledge him. It's not a good time to make a move here. We'll deal with him after school."

As Pei Youguang spoke, he turned and left first, with his henchmen following a step behind him, making quite a grand entrance.

……

After a physical education class, my aiming skills have improved to 158/300, a rapid progress.

The increase in skill and experience was reflected in Xue Jing in real time, so the more he shot, the more comfortable he became, and his shooting percentage steadily improved, making all the male classmates wear masks of pain.

"Damn it, I'll be a dog if I ever play basketball with you again!"

In the classroom, Li Ge started swearing.

He then immediately added, "Unless you put me on your team."

Xue Jing was packing his things into his backpack when he heard this and smiled, "Okay, I'll take you flying next time."

Practicing darts at home only grants 1 experience point per hit, while playing basketball outside grants 2 experience points per basket. The system clearly doesn't encourage secluded practice.

After a while, Li Ge finished packing his things, slung his backpack over his shoulder, walked to Xue Jing's side, and said solemnly, "Let's go, I'll go back with you."

Xue Jing looked at his expression, which seemed to be about to die a heroic death, and found it both funny and touching.

Unlike Xue Jing, Li Ge had a distorted view of Pei Youguang. In his eyes, Pei Youguang was a thug who had committed murder, arson, and rape. Knowing that this thug was likely to cause trouble for Xue Jing after school, Li Ge was still willing to go back with him, which showed his loyalty.

Xue Jing shook his head and said, "No need, I can go back by myself."

Li Ge insisted, "You don't need to say anything more. I'm not that kind of person. If I say I'll be there for you, I'll be there for you!"

"Alright then." Xue Jing no longer refused.

He added, "But you have to remember, I'll handle this. You just watch from the sidelines, understand?"

Li Ge was somewhat puzzled, but he nodded nonetheless.

The two walked out of the classroom and headed towards the school gate.

Compared to Xue Jing, who looked no different from usual and had a normal expression, Li Ge walked heavily, his face full of worries, as if he were going to be tortured.

As Xue Jing walked onto the playground, he suddenly remembered something.

'Hmm...it seems he's practiced a little martial arts? Just in case, we should prepare something.'

Xue Jing thought to himself.

He lowered his head, searched the ground for a while, and walked to a cobblestone path.

Seeing Xue Jing suddenly squat down, pick up a few pebbles and put them in his pocket, Li Ge asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Xue Jing felt the pebbles in his pocket to check their size and feel, and casually said, "I'll lay my cards on the table. I'm actually a descendant of Little Li Flying Dagger."

Li Ge: "Huh?"

Chapter 11 The Wonderful Use of Aiming

As soon as Xue Jing and his companion reached the school gate, Li Ge suddenly patted Xue Jing on the shoulder and pointed with a serious expression at a student walking straight towards them.

"Here he comes! That person is Pei Youguang's henchman."

The newcomer had medium-length hair and walked with a lazy gait. To show off his individuality, he wore his school uniform crookedly, with the top two buttons of the inner lining undone, no tie, and his jacket sleeves rolled up to his elbows. He also had a cigarette in his hand, seemingly thinking he looked very cool, with a smug look on his face.

"Xue Jing, right? Do you know Pei Youguang, brother Pei? He wants to see you. Come with me."

When the student approached Xue Jing, he was too short and, not wanting to appear weak, he had to hold his head high and speak to him with his nose in his nose.

"..."

Li Ge's expression grew increasingly somber. Although he had decided to follow his sense of loyalty and stand up for Xue Jing, a great sense of panic still lingered in his heart as the time came.

Xue Jing looked down at the other person slightly and smiled, "Let's go."
