Yangzhou, Yi'an District, No. 3 High School.
A scorching sun hung high in the azure sky. The June rays, like celestial flames, burned the earth relentlessly, instilling a silent irritability in everyone.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amid the silence of the campus, on the third floor of the gymnasium, two figures moved like lightning in the vast training hall, capturing every gaze.
The clashes between them echoed like thunder, drawing gasps of shock and admiration.
BANG!
Suddenly, after one final collision, one of the figures was launched like a cannonball.
Instantly, the room erupted in cheers.
"So that's the power of a high-level warrior? I really witnessed something amazing today!"
"Unbelievable!"
"Ye Yu is so strong! He truly deserves the title of our school's top fighter!"
"Luo Feng isn't bad either—he held his ground against Ye Yu for so long!"
Among the crowd of students, eyes burned with admiration for the two young men in the center of the arena.
Ye Yu and Luo Feng.
Two absolute geniuses — not just of Yi'an No. 3 High School, but of all forty high schools in Yangzhou!
Ye Yu, 18 years old.
Not only the number one fighter at his school, but also the strongest among the forty high schools of Yangzhou.
A high-tier warrior at just 18, he was courted by every major faction of the Jiangnan base city.
Luo Feng, his rival, though slightly weaker, had also reached the advanced warrior level at 18.
In this world ruled by strength, the two young men were living legends—both envied and revered.
"Not bad, you've improved!"
Ye Yu, dressed in a black training outfit, landed gracefully and cast an approving glance at Luo Feng, who was struggling to get up fifteen meters away.
Luo Feng, the original protagonist, possessed terrifying talent.
Even with his advantage as a transmigrator and the help of his system, Ye Yu struggled to completely dominate him.
"You're the stronger one, Brother Ye..."
Luo Feng smiled bitterly, his arms trembling from the effort.
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow.
This guy really knows how to play the act.
The others didn't know, but as a transmigrator himself, Ye Yu knew the truth.
Even if he had won this duel, Luo Feng was still hiding his ultimate trump card:
His psychic power!
His mental abilities had already reached a solid level, surpassing his physical strength by two tiers.
In truth, Luo Feng was already a mid-tier warrior!
Even if Ye Yu unleashed his full strength, victory wouldn't be guaranteed.
Worse — thanks to his explosive psychic growth, Luo Feng would soon surpass him.
But Ye Yu said nothing.
Everyone has their secrets.
"Alright. Step down. Next pair!"
The instructor, satisfied, dismissed them.
He had never seen talents like Ye Yu and Luo Feng.
Strength, speed, reflexes — both were at the peak of high-tier warrior.
Their techniques — body, fist, and blade — neared mastery, showing signs of an imminent breakthrough.
And they were only 18.
"Brother Yu, are you hurt?"
As they left the arena, two long-legged beauties rushed to Ye Yu, surrounding him with radiant smiles.
"Hey, I'm the one who's injured here! Doesn't anyone care about me?"
Luo Feng winced, his gaze lingering on one of the girls — Xu Xin — with a touch of melancholy.
Xu Xin and Liu Ting shot him a murderous glance, making him sigh.
Xu Xin...
Luo Feng had secretly loved her since high school.
But now, her heart belonged to another —
To his own comrade-in-arms, Ye Yu.
As for the fact that both Liu Ting and Xu Xin had feelings for Ye Yu?
Who even cared?
In this world, warriors had privileges.
Faced with the monsters in the wilderness, humanity needed warriors — and their superior genes.
The state even encouraged such unions.
Whether it was two women or twenty, no one saw it as unfair.
They were fighting for humanity's survival.
Ye Yu burst out laughing and wrapped his arms around the slim waists of the two girls, making the crowd blush.
Xu Xin and Liu Ting, though embarrassed, didn't resist.
What young girl didn't dream of a magnificent, invincible hero?
Ye Yu was the embodiment of that dream.
Even with her noble background within the HR Alliance, Xu Xin had never met anyone as exceptional as him.
