Chapter 6 - Test of Ability
One could also earn money as a student.
The school already had connections with outside and students could do some part time jobs such as house chores, cleaning school grounds and cleaning the mansions of the wealthy people. As for the top students, they could even help the police with investigations and participate in military activities.
The high school students nowadays weren’t the caged parrots they were two hundred years ago. They were very capable.
Students with a life force of 0.9 could assist the army and earn high salaries.
The mass and general public had a life force of 0.7.
Those with a life force of 0.8 could join the police or even become a normal soldier.
Those with a life force of 0.9 could become military instructors.
As for those with a life force of 1, they were the highly influential people. This was not only the case inside school. They could also acquire high status even outside of school.
The students before relied on marks and grades. Those were useless. No matter how high your scores were, no one cared about you when you entered society. Now, the grades were the solid and practical life force. This was power. This was the foundation of humanity.
“What job would be better? Private tutor salaries are too low. I need to go see what jobs have high salaries. Little brother was even helping police with crime investigations a year ago and helped them arrest a dangerous figure. For his contribution, he was rewarded with a few hundred star coins.” Jiang Li was thinking.
“Hey! You came this early for school Jiang Li? This isn’t you at all.”
As soon as Jiang Li walked onto the large field of theschool, a tall and stout figured student ran towards him. His height was 1.85m and had a bulky figure. He had a smirk on his face and suddenly accelerated. He used the move [Old Bear Ramming Tree] and rammed towards Jiang Li with explosive power like a swirling wind.
This was his classmate Tiger Ma. He had a life force of 0.8 and loved mischief.
Not long ago, Jiang Li was rammed over by TIger Na a few times and Tiger Ma laughed at him, mocking Jiang Li for being weak.
Tiger Ma was very disliked in class especially by normal students like Jiang Li who was always bullied by him.
A person with a life force of 0.8 could easily beat 3 to 5 people with a life force of 0.7 in a fight. Maybe even six or seven. This was a fundamental difference in power.
Hmph!
Jiang Li snorted and bent his torso. His body swayed like a willow tree branch in the wind and easily side stepped the ram. Finally, his whole body including his spine suddenly twisted as with his muscles. His whole body was tense like a twisted steel rope!
[Boneless Jujitsu], [Twisting Bone Attack]!
His whole body smashed into TIger Ma.
Bang!
Tiger Ma was like a person rammed over by a car and flew back falling on the runway heavily. He was dazed and bruises all over his face. Finally, he collected himself.
“[Boneless Jujitsu, Twisting Bone Attack]? How can a worthless crap like you with a life force of 0.7 do such high difficulty moves?”
He was shocked.
[Boneless Jujitsu] was a C rank martial art in the school and belonged to the self study course. Although everyone could study it, it was very high in difficulty and had high requirements for bone pliability, muscle elasticity and tendon strength. If you learnt it forcefully, the only consequence would be bone fracture and whole body paralysis.
Just then, the move [Twisting Bone Attack] entwined all the bones in the body together to suddenly release elastic energy. The speed was rapid, the power was great and the angle was unexpected making it hard for people to defend against.
It was already very hard to learn these types of moves. To use it in an actual battle was even harder.
“Tiger Ma, stop trying to play jokes on me again. Remember it. Otherwise, I’ll beat you every time you try.” Jiang Li didn’t even explain. The feeling of being proud and elated was magnificent: “ I don’t need to explain to you how I learnt this.”
He didn’t mind using his fists to teach a lesson to those who picked on weak students.
After finishing his sentence, he turned to leave immediately not even giving Tiger Ma a chance to ask.
“Damn it!” Tiger Ma smashed his fist onto the runway. He was angry and stared glaringly at Jiang Li’s back: “Just you wait.”
Jiang Li didn’t worry about Tiger Ma’s revenge. Little fights in the school were normal and although Tiger Ma’s family was wealthy, they didn’t have too much power. The most he could do was to gather a group and look for trouble. With his current skills, he could take on a few people.
“Bro, you’re good. Even Tiger Ma was beaten to the ground by you.”
As soon as he entered the class, Guo Meng came and patted Jiang Li on the back:” That guy always bullied us because his life force was strong. This time, he stepped on a hard nail. How did you improve so much, did you go into Deep Sleep?”
“Guo Meng, this time I got you your revenge.”
Jiang Li saw that it was Guo Meng. They were brothers in hardship. Once, they were training in the gymnasium and Tiger Ma used the excuse of giving them pointers and beat them up one versus two.
“I feel like I have some breath through recently.”
Of course he couldn’t talk about Fetal Respiration. That was too absurd.
“Can you really enter Deep Sleep?” Guo Meng admired and then sighed, “Too bad I still can’t. Sigh! You have a successful life ahead of you. You can find a goob job and get in a good university graduating with a life force of 0.8.” Guo Meng sighed, “But your little brother is even stronger. Ten days ago, he came into conflict with Zheng Wenbing and was able to beat him.”
“Huh?” Jiang Li listened, “Why? What happened between them?”
