Gao Wu: Honey, don't cry, I'm truly invincible!

【Ding! 】

[Mission: Obtain 10,000 Source Crystals within three days (Completed).]

[Mission Reward: Martial Skill - Ninefold Thunder Slash (Full Text), successfully issued. Please check your account.]

In my mind, the system's mechanical prompts rang out.

At the same time, a large amount of information entered Qin Su's mind.

All the mysteries of the Ninefold Thunder Slash surged into Qin Su's mind in that instant.

Not only the first two chapters he had already learned, but he had also mastered the remaining seven chapters.

He even discovered, through comparison, that there were many details he had missed in two articles he had studied before.

Now that the gaps have been filled and the techniques have been fully understood, if the moves from the first two chapters are used again, the power will more than double.

Qin Su was very excited.

He tried to unleash the Ninefold Thunder Slash, and instantly, streaks of ferocious lightning began to appear on his body, while lightning gathered in his palm.

If he so desires, this lightning, containing terrifying destructive power, can be unleashed, causing horrific destruction.

Just as Qin Su was immersed in the thrill of mastering the entire Ninefold Thunder Slash, a thunderclap exploded on the training ground.

"Heavens, what kind of swordsmanship is this? I've never seen it before!"

"This is the first move of the third chapter of the Ninefold Thunder Slash. You haven't even fully mastered the first chapter yet, so of course you haven't seen this move before."

"Hey, you talk like you know so much, but you haven't even finished mastering the moves from the very first chapter!"

"Shut up."

"..."

Qin Su opened her eyes.

In reality, only a few seconds passed from when the system issued the task to when he completed it and then mastered the entire Ninefold Thunder Slash.

He watched Su Qingli's powerful slashing movements without saying a word.

"What, are you stunned? I'm dumbfounded too, really."

Lin Ce, who was sitting next to him, sighed:

"I was initially unconvinced by Su Qingli, always thinking that I could catch up with her soon, but I never expected that she would have mastered the Ninefold Thunder Slash to this extent."

The other students exclaimed in amazement, "We've only been training a few months less than her, yet we're still so far ahead of her..."

Amidst the gasps of surprise, Qin Su suddenly shook her head and said, "That's not right."

Lin Ce looked at him. "What's wrong?"

"Her application of force is incorrect. This move is not applied in this way; her understanding is completely wrong," Qin Su said.

He didn't lower his voice intentionally, and everyone in the audience heard it.

Su Qingli naturally heard it too, but she couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to Qin Su.

[The former top student in the entire school, now not only can't he catch up with me in terms of martial arts level, but he can't even keep up in terms of understanding martial arts techniques.]

How lamentable, laughable, and pathetic!

She has her own confidence, so why would she doubt herself because of a few words from Qin Su?

"break!"

She unleashed a powerful slash.

In an instant, thunder roared from the ground, and countless bolts of lightning, like venomous snakes, transformed into blades of light and fiercely struck the iron man's stake not far away, leaving a shallow mark that was still flashing with electricity.

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

Despite its name containing the character for "iron," this iron stake is not actually made of iron. Instead, it is made of a special alloy that is extremely hard. Since the founding of Tianhe No.1 Middle School, no one has ever been able to leave a single mark on it.

But today, Su Qingli did it.

The fact that her strike could injure the iron mantle shows just how terrifying its destructive power was...

Su Qingli was quite satisfied with the damage she had caused. After putting away her knife, she gave Qin Su a provocative look and snorted heavily through her nose.

His disdain for Qin Su was completely evident in his words.

Qin Su smiled.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he slowly stepped forward, took a wooden sword from the weapon rack at the edge of the training ground, weighed it in his hand, and then gently exhaled.

It seemed as if two white streaks of light shot out from between his nostrils.

A large amount of lightning flowed from his hand to the blade, and then gathered on the edge, turning the blade into a crystalline blue-purple color.

At that moment, his aura suddenly surged, as if a high-powered furnace had been ignited within his body, unleashing boundless power.

[That charging stance... it's the third chapter of the Ninefold Thunder Slash, and it's the very move I just practiced. How... does he know it too?]

Su Qingli stared intently at Qin Su, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Su suddenly raised his knife, his arm arched like a full moon, his arm muscles compressed to the limit, and then suddenly released like a spring, instantly unleashing terrifying power.

boom!

The wooden sword slashed down fiercely, drawing a beautiful arc.

This strike was so powerful and heavy that it shattered the air itself, emitting a piercing shriek.

The next moment, the blade slicing smoothly across the head of the Iron Man stake, piercing straight through the skull.

There was no thunderous explosion, no glint of swords, and it even gave the impression that they hadn't actually encountered the Iron Man Stake at all.

Everyone thought Qin Su was going to chop again.

Unexpectedly, Qin Su casually tossed the crackling wooden sword to the ground, dusted off his hands, and said indifferently to Su Qingli:

"Watch closely, this is the real deal."

Su Qingli scoffed, about to raise a question.

The other students frowned, wondering if Qin Su had lost her mind.

But at that moment, suddenly, a smooth, mirror-like cut slowly appeared on the head of the Iron Man Stake.

boom!

Half of the Iron Man's head crashed heavily to the ground amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd.

The whole audience...

A dead silence.

The instigator, Qin Su, simply brushed the dust off his hands and then looked at Su Qingli with a half-smile.

Su Qingli was already stunned, staring at the iron man stake that Qin Su had cut down. She opened her mouth again and again, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Only then did the other students finally realize what was happening, and they all erupted in chaos, exclaiming in surprise:

"Holy crap, Lao Qin, how did you do that?!"

"My God, Qin, that was such a cool move! When did you learn that?"

"Alright, alright, Qin Su, you little rascal, we agreed to be lazy and decadent together until we grow old, but you secretly worked hard and amazed the world, huh?"

Qin Su laughed and said, "If I told you that I only just learned this technique myself, would you believe me?"

"Damn it, you're going to lose your mind! Is this some kind of Versailles-like behavior?"

"Damn it, I'm going to rip you off after school today, otherwise I won't be able to feel at peace!"

"Tell us quickly, how did you improve so fast while you were home alone? We remember that you had only barely mastered the first two chapters of the Ninefold Thunder Slash before, and you couldn't even understand the third chapter."

"Yeah, yeah, teach us guys so we can improve our understanding of the Ninefold Thunder Slash and be more confident in the national martial arts exam in ten days."

Qin Su said with a grin, "I won't teach."

"...Damn it, Lao Qin, you're not being fair."

"Damn it, you're still holding back, aren't you? Fine, we'll remember you."

Qin Su rolled her eyes and said, "No, I really can't teach you. Our teachers are so good at teaching, and they still can't teach you. What are you thinking? How can you expect me to teach you? If I could teach you, why would I even go to school? And why would our teachers even need to teach?"

"..."

"Okay, you have a point."

"Damn it, I'm so angry about your insults, but I can't even argue back..."

Everyone's faces darkened, but they had to admit that what Qin Su said was true; they themselves were useless and couldn't teach them.

"Never mind, you have to treat us to dinner after school today. We're going to rip you off."

"Exactly, I'm really angry right now, I need to vent my anger."

Qin Su laughed and said, "Don't worry, you can spend as much as you want. Today's expenses will all be paid by me, Young Master Qin. Anyway, if I can't afford it, I'll just run away, hahaha."

"..."

While Qin Su and his group were chatting and laughing, Su Qingli silently walked up to the iron man statue with half its head missing.

Reach out.

He gently touched the half of the Iron Man Stake's head that had fallen to the ground.

The incredibly sharp, thunderous blade intent still lingered on it. She recoiled as if electrocuted the moment she touched it.

Her pupils contracted slightly as a result.

"Wow! Someone who can consistently be number one is no ordinary person. I'd probably need six months of hard training to catch up to that level!"

A deep sense of shock flashed in Su Qingli's eyes.
