The girl selling goods at the market had never seen money before.

He never slacked off on tough tasks like physical training; he always exceeded his quota for running laps and punching.

He has already done his best.

But why?!

Losing to a powerhouse like Wang Feng is one thing, but how come you, a nobody, were able to catch up to me in just one week? What about all my hard work and sweat these past few days?!

I absolutely do not agree!

Li Jun pulled out a bottle of life potion and a bottle of strength potion from his body, gulped them down, and then charged forward like a raging bull.

He absolutely cannot lose; he must win. That's why he came to No. 5 Middle School.

He wanted to prove to everyone that he was the undisputed number one in science, which was his only strength, so he had to hold onto it tightly.

Faster, faster, even faster! I can be even faster!

Hahaha... Wang Feng, you won't be able to shake me off this time!

Just as he was about to catch up with Wang Feng, the other man suddenly accelerated.

The top spot in Class 1 belongs solely to Wang Feng, and he will absolutely not give it up to anyone else.

After downing the three bottles of medicine, Wang Feng wiped his mouth, veins bulging on his forehead, a strong urge to sprint surged through him.

There are only 30 laps left to reach 150 laps. That's enough!

A vast power accumulated beneath his feet.

“Deng——”

Time stands still at this moment.

He can already picture himself crossing the finish line perfectly; his condition today is better than ever before!

Like a sonic boom, he trampled a deep pit in the grass of the playground, and his whole body disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"Don't try to escape!"

Li Jun reacted quickly, took out the medicine bottle, pushed it with his thumb, the stopper fell off, and he poured the medicine into his mouth, followed by the medicine.

The two occupied the inner lane, and their extremely fast lap speed allowed them to constantly overtake the students on the side. Under such terrifying competition, no one dared to run on the inner lane, because they would definitely be knocked over from behind by the two who couldn't stop in time.

One lap, two laps, three laps... 15 laps have passed.

Li Jun, who was five body lengths behind Wang Feng, still couldn't catch up with him.

If we don't speed things up now, we'll never have a chance.

Li Jun's teeth were chattering. He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly grabbed the medicine bottle in his pocket. This was the fifth bottle. Drinking so many medicines in such a short time could cause his body to explode.

But he couldn't care less about all that; he didn't want to be trampled underfoot by Wang Feng for the rest of his life.

The top science student in Class 1 and the top science student in No. 5 Middle School—only such titles can make up for the gap between him and others after he abandoned the humanities.

"I don't want to lose!!!"

As he screamed inwardly, he crushed the medicine bottle with one hand, his scarlet blood spreading in the tonic. Ignoring the shards of glass inside, he gulped it down.

A sharp pain shot through my heart, but in contrast, my whole body felt relaxed.

That's my limit, that's all...

As Wang Feng, who had been blocking his way, gradually disappeared, he was greeted by a completely new world, free of any impurities.

"Is this the scenery at the top? It's so beautiful..."

Before he could finish speaking, a silvery-white flash suddenly flew out from his side.

The figure moved with lightning speed, passing by the other side of the track in the blink of an eye.

The silvery-white silhouette gradually shrank in size.

She's still accelerating.

Li Jun and Wang Feng's pupils shrank, revealing expressions of horror. Only now did they understand what had just happened.

It's Bai Jinxuan, but how is this speed possible? She's only been practicing for a week, how could she be so much faster than them!?

Among them, Li Jun recalled something even more terrifying.

It was because Bai Jinxuan sped up that he was forced to take the medicine to catch up with Wang Feng, and during this process, he never saw the other party's figure.

In other words, she had been behind the two of them the whole time, and now she had already overtaken them by two laps. Soon, she would have finished running 150 laps.

It's impossible for either Wang Feng or myself to catch up.

Li Jun was in despair.

Meanwhile, Bai Jinxuan was enjoying the feeling of the wind chasing her.

If you want to go to No. 2 Middle School and achieve the same level of success as Yao Yao, this speed is not enough.

She recalled her experience fighting the phantom serpents, and now, in order to avoid attracting the attention of the guild, she had to fight the serpents in a confined space.

If you're not careful, you could get injured or even die.

In contrast, the surface environment is like a greenhouse. At worst, you'll be kicked out of the Fifth Middle School for poor grades. In Star City, there are small sects like the Seventh and Eighth Sects where you can study. Although you'll likely end up working like a beast of burden after graduation, at least you won't lose your life.

Even in the black market, most incidents involve bullying, and as long as you don't mess with the insurance company, you generally won't face a life-threatening situation.

Looking at it this way, I really am quite bold.

Bai Jinxuan smiled, clenched her fist, and silently darted across the track.

150 laps, done.

Unsurprisingly, he's in first place. If he keeps this up, becoming the top science student in the Fifth Middle School won't be far off.

But that's not enough. This level is not enough to attract the attention of the Second Middle School. If placed in the Second Sect, it would only be at the level of an outer sect servant disciple.

There are still more than 20 days until the joint entrance exam, so there is still time.

She had to find a way to improve her grades further. This joint exam was extremely important, and the Second Middle School would definitely invest a lot of resources. Compared to the last joint exam, the students' grades were expected to improve significantly, making it another fierce competition.

Moreover, joint exams like this don't happen every time. If No. 2 Middle School stops taking joint exams with No. 5 Middle School one day, even if she has the ability, no one will care about her.

Therefore, we must seize this opportunity.

At this moment, Zhang Hu walked over and said cheerfully.

"Bai Jinxuan, you've improved so much! You were the first one to finish the race. You must have been attending a lot of tutoring after school, right?"

"I can't hide it from you, teacher."

Bai Jinxuan took out a bottle of water from her handbag and answered while drinking, "It's a pity that the tutoring center requires me to take their medicine, otherwise I could have bought the medicine from you, teacher. Sigh."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hu understood immediately; it turned out to be a tutoring center.

Some expensive tutoring classes do indeed

They definitely have their own special medicines. No wonder Bai Jinxuan didn't come to buy medicine. She probably enrolled in a tutoring class that bundled tutoring and medicine together. Such institutions usually have complicated backgrounds.

"It's okay. Buying medicine anywhere doesn't matter. The important thing is to improve your grades. As long as you maintain this level, you'll definitely be able to get into the top class after the joint entrance exam."

Upon hearing Zhang Hu's words, Bai Jinxuan chuckled inwardly.

Class Zero? I'm going to the Second Sect!

Volume 1: Chapter 24: The Girl Who Loves Sweets

According to Zhang Hu's routine, after running, one should go to the training room to exercise.

The Fifth Sect is more inclined towards martial arts, so the school's training rooms are quite spacious and well-equipped.

Placed in the Lower City, it's in a league of its own.

Unfortunately, the magical environment of this training room is nonexistent; it uses ancient methods of body training, such as weightlifting and stretching, without any modern touches.

Its effect on body tempering and qi cultivation in the Magic Era is very limited.

As Bai Jinxuan walked through the corridor, she saw that the senior students in other classrooms were engaged in extremely intense training, and the trash cans in the corners were full of medicine bottles.

Speaking of which, it seems that the joint entrance exam is not only for the first year of high school, but also for the second and third years, especially the third year, because the pressure is very high as graduation is approaching.

Whether it's being promoted to the upper city or being admitted to university without taking the college entrance exam, these are opportunities that ordinary people rarely have in their lifetime.

"They're all rolling it up..."

Bai Jinxuan couldn't help but sigh and gradually quickened her pace.

It must be said that the Fifth Sect is very good at inspiring students' ambition.

The walls of the practice room are made of glass. People in the corridor can see how hard the students work and how strong their bodies are, which naturally makes them feel a sense of crisis.

Even that wasn't enough for the schools; they wanted to maximize the competition.

The most intense senior students' practice room is located on the first floor of the practice room. This way, first- and second-year students can see how the senior students study in the corridor before going upstairs.

That scene was extremely impactful to them, and even Bai Jinxuan's nerves tightened after seeing it.

In her first year of high school, her physical abilities were indeed noteworthy, but to the senior students who had mostly obtained Level 1 Exploration Certificates, she was simply mediocre.

In the top classes of senior year, some students have already reached the threshold of level 3 in terms of physical strength. In university, these would be considered top students.

It's fair to say that such people don't need to graduate from university; they can become teachers in the Fifth Sect after graduating from high school.

Moreover, this is only in the lower district. If it were No. 2 Middle School or No. 1 Middle School, she couldn't even imagine what level the top students there would be in their senior year.

After visiting the senior high school, Bai Jinxuan went up the stairs on the right to the third floor.

The far right side of the third floor is Class Zero, the gathering place for the inner disciples of the Fifth Sect.

Perhaps influenced by Murong Yao's ascension to No. 2 Middle School, the atmosphere in Class Zero was even more intense than that of the senior students.

Behind the practice room were rows of neatly arranged empty medicine bottles, too big to fit in the trash cans. Even before getting close, you could smell a strong medicinal odor in the corridor.

They're truly fearless.

Bai Jinxuan's eyelids twitched, she covered her nose with the back of her hand, and quickly entered Class 1's practice room.

Although the smell of medicine here wasn't as strong as in Class Zero, the thought of her classmates not having arrived yet, and the fact that the training room smelled so strongly of medicine even when no one was there, filled her with resentment.

I took out my phone and tapped on Yao Yao's profile picture.

[Bai Jinxuan: Yao Yao, you deserve to die! Because of your feat of getting promoted to No. 2 Middle School, the students in Class 0 and Class 1 have gone crazy.]

As she spoke, she took a picture of the trash can at the back of the classroom, which was piled high with empty bottles, and sent it to the teacher.

[Bai Jinxuan: Have you ever seen so many medicine bottles before? Zhang Hu is selling medicine like crazy.]

Just one second after the message was sent, my phone vibrated; the other party had replied.

[Murong Yao: This... how can you blame me...]

[Murong Yao: Did you drink it, Xiao Xuan? I haven't heard you mention your grades since then.]

Seeing this, Bai Jinxuan hesitated for a moment, then took a picture of her handbag.

[Bai Jinxuan: Of course I drank it! I bought a lot of medicine. I never took any medicine before, which is why my grades were so bad. Now, with the help of the medicine, I'll surpass you in no time.]

[Bai Jinxuan: Just you wait and see about this joint entrance exam!]

Upon seeing this message, Murong Yao narrowed her eyes, feeling as if she were bathed in a spring breeze, and typed even more vigorously on her phone.
