Gao Wu: Oh no! Young Master Zhen is a cultivator!

Everyone stretched their bodies, walked slowly, did push-ups, and high knees.

Lin Ran walked to a corner and began to do the most basic stretching exercises.

Double gravity is equivalent to a load of tens of kilograms, but it's all-around gravity suppression.

For a body with only one level of Qi Refining, this is hardly even a warm-up.

"Look, why is he acting like nothing happened?"

"Double gravity! When I first came in, I couldn't even straighten my back."

"Could he really have some kind of superhuman strength?"

"I don't understand, but there really is no spiritual energy fluctuation on him."

Zhao Meng was doing squats, and large beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

He looked up and saw Lin Ran doing side leg presses with his hands on his hips, looking as relaxed as he did on the outdoor playground. He couldn't help but twitch his lips twice.

After finishing a set of push-ups, Lin Haozhe turned to look at Lin Ran, his brows furrowing slightly.

At this moment, Lin Ran was already doing high knees, and the frequency of his movements was even faster than under normal gravity.

"That was quite a surprise!"

A complex look flashed across Lin Haozhe's eyes as he continued his warm-up exercises.

Outside the training room, Qin Hanzhong crossed his arms and looked at Lin Ran.

"An ordinary person who hasn't awakened can easily crush an A-level awakened individual at the Qi Opening Realm. Could it be that the Lin family really possesses some ancient martial arts heritage?"

His speed is faster than that of a martial artist in the Tongqiao Realm, and he can stretch nonchalantly when he first enters the gravity chamber.

In his seventeen years of teaching, he had never seen such an ordinary person.

Twenty minutes later, Qin Hanzhong blew the whistle.

"Warm-up complete. Everyone, exit the gravity training room and enter the holographic pod according to your student ID number."

The students filed out, their faces flushed from exercise.

Lin Ran walked in the middle of the group, his breathing steady, without a drop of sweat on his forehead.

The group followed Qin Hanzhong to the virtual training area and stood in front of the holographic cabin.

"Today's virtual scene is a suburban ruin, and there are three types of mutants in the scene: Claw Rat, Armored Lizard, and Shadow Cat."

Qin Hanzhong held up three fingers.

"Three rules. First, each person has only one life. Second, there is no limit to the number of mutants. Third, the number of kills counts towards the final grade."

Having said that, he withdrew his finger: "Everyone, board the plane!"

Lin Ran is number thirty-seven, and his position is near the innermost side.

He walked to the corresponding holographic capsule and stepped inside.

The hatch closed automatically behind us. The interior space was small, just enough for one person to stand up.

There are sensor panels on the top and bottom, and the four walls are densely packed with miniature sensors.

"Virtual scene loading..."

An electronic female voice rang in my ears, and a flash of white light appeared before my eyes.

When Lin Ran opened his eyes, he was already standing in a pile of ruins.

Broken walls and rubble everywhere.

A partially collapsed residential building leans to the left, with steel bars protruding from the broken floor slabs like withered bones poking into the ground.

To the right is a street filled with abandoned vehicles, their bodies covered in thick rust.

The sky was overcast, making it impossible to tell whether it was daytime or evening.

Lin Ran stretched his limbs.

The virtual scene is highly realistic, and the body's functions are no different from those in reality.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

A faint, rustling sound came from deep within the ruins.

Lin Ran walked quickly to a partially collapsed residential building on the left and stepped on a steel bar protruding from the broken floor slab.

With a stomp of the foot, a section of the steel bar popped out of the concrete.

Lin Ran bent down, grasped the middle section of the steel bar, and twisted it repeatedly left and right several times.

quack!

The steel bar was cut in two, with uneven cross-sections.

He held the meter-long steel bar in his hand and weighed it; the weight was just right, and it was fairly easy to handle.

The squeaking sound grew closer.

Three clawed rats crawled out of the half-collapsed building.

Its size is roughly equivalent to that of an adult mongrel, its body is covered in sores, its eyes are bloodshot, and its claws are sharp and menacing.

"Squeak!"

One of the rats in the middle took the lead, pushing off the ground with its hind legs and shooting its entire body toward Lin Ran.

Lin Ran sidestepped, and then swung the steel bar down with his right hand.

The steel bar slammed into the back of the clawed rat's neck with a whooshing sound.

Click!

The sound of a neck bone cracking rang out, and the corpse of the Claw Rat vanished in specks of light.

The scoreboard jumped briefly in the upper right corner of the view: +10.

The other two pounced at the same time, one from the left and one from the right.

Lin Ran took a half step forward with his left foot, and the steel bar was lifted up from the bottom.

Bang!

The rat with sharp claws in front was struck in the jaw by a steel bar, its head flipped backward, and exploded into a ball of light in mid-air.

The claws of the rat to the left rear had already reached the back of Lin Ran's head.

Pfft!

Lin Ran gripped the half-section of the steel bar in reverse and stabbed it behind him. The steel bar pierced through the eye socket of the razor rat and went through its entire skull.

The third burst of light exploded, and the number on the score panel changed to 30.

Lin Ran shook off the debris stuck to the steel bars and walked deeper into the ruins.

New clawed rats would occasionally dart out from both sides of the street, in groups of three or five, sometimes as many as seven or eight.

However, these F-level mutated creatures posed no threat to Lin Ran whatsoever.

The steel bars moved continuously in his hands, and his score kept rising.

Before long, it broke through the three hundred mark.

After turning the corner, a relatively open space appears ahead.

An armored lizard appeared in Lin Ran's field of vision.

It is nearly two meters long and has a row of bone spurs standing upright on its back, making it quite ferocious.

At this moment, it was gnawing on something, its mouth opening and closing, making a crunching sound.

Sensing someone approaching, the armored lizard suddenly raised its head.

"roar!"

It let out a low growl, locked its vertical pupils on Lin Ran, and charged forward with all its might.

Lin Ran raised an eyebrow: "This thing looks bulky, but it's not slow at all."

The ground shook, and the armored lizard rushed in front of Lin Ran in the blink of an eye.

Its gaping maw opened wide, and a stench of blood and gore wafted out.

Lin Ran shifted his right foot to the side, and the armored lizard rushed past him, biting at nothing.

Before it could turn around, Lin Ran gripped the steel bar with both hands and slammed it down hard on the armored lizard's head.

when!

The steel bar struck the scales, sending sparks flying.

Several fine cracks appeared on the scales.

The armored lizard, in pain, lashed out with its tail.

Its thick tail lashed out with a powerful gust of wind, striking Lin Ran's waist.

Lin Ran leaped forward, dodging the tail strike and landing on the armored lizard's back.

He gripped the bone spike on the armored lizard's head with one hand, and with the other hand, he held the steel bar upside down, pointed it downwards, and forcefully stabbed it into the crack in the scales.

laugh!

The steel bar sank half a foot into the ground, and the armored lizard let out a mournful howl, its massive body thrashing wildly.

Lin Ran gripped the steel bar tightly and stepped on its head again.

Bang!

The armored lizard collapsed to the ground, its limbs twitched twice before it stopped moving, its massive body transforming into countless specks of light.

Points +100.

Lin Ran pulled out the steel bar: "A higher grade makes a difference; it's much more difficult now."

He straightened the bent steel bar on his knee and continued forward.

He then encountered several waves of Claw Rats and two Armored Lizards, and his score quickly surpassed one thousand.

He followed a fixed direction and arrived at an abandoned shopping mall.

The hall was empty, with a few mannequins scattered around.

The light filtering through the shattered glass of the dome was somewhat dazzling.

Just then, a whooshing sound came from overhead.

Lin Ran quickly took a step back.

A black shadow swept past the spot where he had just been standing, without making a sound.

"It seems this is Shadow Cat," Lin Ran said thoughtfully.

This creature is three times the size of an average house cat, and its eyes glow with a ghostly green light.

After landing, he immediately turned around, causing the surrounding air to distort, and then disappeared from Lin Ran's sight again.

"No wonder it's called Shadow Cat, it can turn invisible." Lin Ran looked around as he carried the steel bar.

So-called invisibility is simply the distortion of light to achieve the effect of invisibility; if you observe carefully, you will definitely be able to see the clues.

For example, when the shadow cat in front of Lin Ran moves, there are still footprints on the ground.

There's so much dust, it's impossible to hide it.

As the footsteps slowly approached, Lin Ran threw the steel bar in his hand like a javelin.

Pfft!

The steel bar tore through the air, pierced the shadow cat's side, and pinned it to the ground.

The Shadowcat broke out of stealth mode, glanced down at the steel bar piercing its body, and let out a piercing scream.

"They're quite resilient!"
