Bang!

Xu Tui was slammed heavily onto the ground by Deng Wei's spiraling foot. One of his legs landed on the side of Xu Tui's waist, while the other landed directly on Xu Tui's left neck and face.

Xu Tui rolled 180 degrees on the spot and fell face-first onto the ground.

Below the stage, the students from the Mystery Branch let out a cry of surprise.

Deng Wei, who was standing still, touched the swollen bulge at the center of his forehead. There was a flash of shock in his eyes.

What kind of ability was that? If that ability had targeted his vital points just now, then he would…?

The kicks were rather brutal. Xu Tui felt as though he was suffocating. He felt as though his head and neck had been hit by a sledgehammer. His ears were buzzing.

Xu Tui panted heavily before sitting up with difficulty. His face felt a little warm. His hand was covered in blood.

There was blood.

The pungent smell of blood suddenly reminded Xu Tui of the scene when A'Hu, the modified human, attacked him.

There was no fear. Instead, there was a strange sensation. This was the smell of war.

Deng Wei had clearly been merciless when he attacked.

Che Zhan had been knocked down twice during his battle with Deng Wei just now but was not injured. However, Xu Tui was injured.

Xu Tui felt that his left molar had become a little loose.

The Mystery Branch students below the stage immediately became agitated when they saw Xu Tui's bleeding face.

Several students pointed at Deng Wei and scolded him.

"Xu Tui had already shown you mercy. Why are you still so merciless?"

"If the mind power that Xu Tui conjured was aimed at your vital points, such as your eyes, you would have become blind long ago. The outcome had been decided, yet you still didn't let go."

"Do you have any shame?"

"Why did you have to be so heavy-handed? Did you come to our school to bully us?"

The Mystery Branch students were rather knowledgeable. Many people immediately realized that the scene just now was caused by Xu Tui's discovery of mind power.

Xu Tui had held back just now. Of course, he was not holding back. That was kindness.

If the mental awl was aimed at an eyeball, the eyeball would definitely explode from the speed at which Deng Wei crashed into it.

It was merely a demonstration, yet if he had crippled one of Deng Wei's eyes, he would have gone overboard. Thus, Xu Tui placed it on his forehead.

Deng Wei, who had been scolded, felt a little scared. If that attack had really landed on his eyes, the outcome would have been…

Chapter 65: Actual Battle First, Demonstration Later (2)

However, Deng Wei had no intention of regretting his decision. Who cared about these things on the battlefield?

"Xu Tui, how are you? Do you need to see the school doctor?" Mr. Wen Shao asked anxiously.

Xu Tui waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

Deng Wei was eager to go. He pointed at Xu Tui and said, "Are you still coming?" He had been put at a slight disadvantage just now because it happened too suddenly. Now, Deng Wei wanted to play another round.

Xu Tui looked at Deng Wei's provocative gaze and wiped off the blood from his nose. He slowly stood up.

"Again!"

"Alright!"

Deng Wei gave Xu Tui a thumbs-up. "Be careful. This time, I'll go all out to avoid your attacks and take you down."

"Bring it on!"

The next instant, as soon as Mr. Wen announced the start of the battle, Deng Wei darted forward again.

Deng Wei, who had dashed out this time, immediately executed a series of fancy jumps. It was like dodging a sniper rifle. It dodged the invisible mental awl while rapidly approaching Xu Tui. It had to be said that Deng Wei's battle tactics were rather useful.

Deng Wei even deliberately shielded his eyes with his hands to prevent his eyes from being pierced. However, no matter how fancy Deng Wei's battle tactics were, Xu Tui's mental senses still managed to capture the trajectory of his movements.

Xu Tui only needed to think to set up the mental awl. It could be done in an instant. Furthermore, Deng Wei had left some space between the hand that was protecting his eyes and his body to allow him to see.

Xu Tui could rotate the mental awl between Deng Wei's hand and his eyes. It will directly explode his eyes. However, the kindness in his heart prevented Xu Tui from doing that. The explosion was too brutal.

Even with the medical technology of the Great Genetic Age, an eyeball could not be repaired once it exploded. They could only install artificial eyes.

Xu Tui instantly placed the mental awl at Deng Wei's throat.

Deng Wei, who was pouncing forward, swayed slightly as if he had sensed something strange. Then, the side of Deng Wei's neck hit the mental awl violently.

The stronger Deng Wei's speed was, the more powerful the impact of the mental awls.

Deng Wei staggered from the impact. However, he relied on his exceptional balance to turn around and jump. He kicked toward Xu Tui continuously. The series of kicks had immense power.

The first kick sent Xu Tui sprawling onto the ground.

The second kick was aimed toward Xu Tui.

Their target was Xu Tui's unprotected face.

The Mystery Branch students instantly let out a cry of surprise.

Xu Tui protected his face with his hand at the critical moment.

Deng Wei stomped his foot fiercely onto Xu Tui's forehead. A large kick landed on his face.

Bang!

The back of Xu Tui's head hit the floor violently before bouncing back. Even though Xu Tui was wearing protective gear, he still felt dizzy from the impact. There was a little more color in his eyes. It must have been a heavy blow to his face. His eyes were bloodshot.

"You've gone overboard, Deng Wei. You've gone overboard!"

"This is a demonstrationl, not a real battle!"

"I didn't ask you to torture people!"

The Mystery Branch students started to shout.

Gong Ling and the students from the School of Enlightened Mind were so nervous that they wanted to run onto the stage to see how Xu Tui was doing.

Suddenly, Xu Tui, who was lying on the ground, raised a hand. "I… I'm alright!"

Xu Tui slowly sat up again after he said those words with difficulty.

As a teacher, Wen Shao also ran in front of Xu Tui at this moment. "Xu Tui, let me call the school doctor for you. The school will foot the medical expenses for the injuries you sustained during the battle drill."

"You don't have to. I'm fine." Xu Tui's tone was very determined.

Wen Shao was a little frustrated.

All of the first-year Mystery Branch students were looking at Xu Tui anxiously, yet they could not forcefully suppress Xu Tui. All they could do was watch as Xu Tui stood up nervously.

Xu Tui, who was standing, looked a little terrifying. There was blood at his mouth and nose. His forehead was covered in bruises, and his entire left eye was swollen. There were abrasions all over it.

Deng Wei, who had been reprimanded by the entire Mystery Branch's first-year cohort, looked at the furious first-year cohort below the stage with an unyielding gaze.

"This is a battle drill. The actual battle is first, and the drill is later. Furthermore, we are genetic newcomers. We would have to face 10 times, 100 times, or even more danger in the future. If you can't even accept such a small threat, why did you come to the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College?"

Deng Wei's tone was arrogant. He finally looked toward Wen Shao. "Mr. Wen, am I right?"

Wen Shao nodded with a heavy expression. "That makes sense."

"You are right. The actual battle is first and the drill is later. Would you still dare to come?" Xu Tui, who was slowly standing, interrupted Wen Shao. He looked toward Deng Wei.

"Hmph, I'll entertain you to the end if you dare." Deng Wei was very confident and arrogant.

"Alright!" Xu Tui, whose face was covered in blood, nodded. He then looked toward Wen Shao.

"Mr. Wen, since this is a battle drill, can I use all of my abilities?" Xu Tui asked.

"Of course." Wen Shao nodded.

"Student Deng Wei, I have a very famous ability. Do you know it? Can I use it?" Xu Tui asked.

"Super soybean?" Deng Wei naturally did not refuse. He had already said that he had to do it in person. How could he slap himself in the face? "Of course."

The next instant, Xu Tui wiped the blood off his face and spat out a mouthful of blood. He then spoke to the audience.

"Which student brought soybeans? I didn't bring soybeans today."

Below the stage, the 800-odd first-year Mystery Branch students were utterly defeated.

Who would bring soybeans to class? Wouldn't he have brought along cute snacks even if he had a snack? Who would bring soybeans?

Below the stage, the 800-odd first-year students of the Mystery Branch looked at each other. No one brought soybeans.

On the stage, Xu Tui was also frustrated. None of them had soybeans.

"A round one would do. Just don't make it too large or too small," Xu Tui said.

The 800-odd students from the Mystery Branch started searching for their pockets. There aren't any in the male students. The button was a little round, but it was flat.

Several female students even started to look at their jewelry.

Gong Ling was the most anxious. She looked at his body. There were no round accessories. Her gaze suddenly landed on the pearl necklace around her roommate's neck. There was a dark blue pendant on her pearl necklace. It was very beautiful. The pearl was very round.

"Qingqing, give these two pearls for emergencies."

Zuo Qingqing froze. She instantly understood what her roommate meant. After a moment's hesitation, Zuo Qingqing removed her necklace, twisted open the clasp, and retrieved three round pearls for Gong Ling.

"Is that enough?"

"It should be enough!"

Gong Ling immediately jogged toward the stage. She had an imposing manner when she ran. Super fierce!

"Student Xu Tui, this is for you."

"Thank you!"

Xu Tui fetched over the pearl and weighed it in his hand. The pearl had a nice texture. He slowly stood 10 meters in front of Deng Wei.

"Yes, I held back during the previous two times. This time, we'll have a real battle… then a drill later on. Be careful!" Xu Tui's voice was a little hoarse.

"Alright!"

"You should be careful. I'll still use my full strength." Deng Wei nodded.

Three seconds later, Mr. Wen announced the start of the battle. Deng Wei once again pounced toward Xu Tui like a panther released from its cage. With his previous two experiences, Deng Wei's battle tactics had become more varied and unpredictable. It was all to avoid the invisible mental awls.

This time, Deng Wei had learned his lesson. He understood that the reason the mental awl had injured him was that he was very fast.

Deng Wei spent more than a second infiltrating an area of 3 meters in front of Xu Tui before he unleashed his power. He was like a flying dragon. He took to the air and continuously kicked toward Xu Tui's head.

Mental Awl!

The sudden appearance of the mental awl caused Deng Wei, who had just taken to the air, to stagger.

The mental awl had been placed in front of his eyes. However, Deng Wei managed to avoid being hit in the eyes and was hit in the chest by the impact.

While he was staggering and falling, Deng Wei pushed with his left hand. His waist twisted like an earth dragon as he supported himself with his arms and sprinted. He charged toward Xu Tui with both legs.

Killing intent suddenly flashed past Xu Tui's eyes.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of something piercing through the air rang out.

Deng Wei let out a dull grunt almost instantly. His left leg suddenly became weak, and his stomach violently contracted. Deng Wei, who was about to kick, suddenly fell to the ground. Almost instantly, Deng Wei could not help but let out a pathetic cry.

Everyone was shocked. The students were all dumbfounded.

The next instant, fiery applause rang out from below the stage.

Wen Shao's expression suddenly became a little ugly.

"This matter has become a little too serious."

Chapter 66: The Pearl Becomes Powder

"Is this the school's emergency center? This is the Mystery Branch Institute's number 2 multi-purpose teaching hall. A student here has sustained serious external injuries and needs emergency treatment."

Wen Shao only glanced at Deng Wei before immediately calling the emergency department.

"External injuries? Burns? Or a large number of lacerations? Do you need large-scale life support devices?"

"He has external injuries. There's no need for large-scale life support equipment. He might need emergency surgery," Wen Shao said as he looked at the wound on Deng Wei's stomach. This was too much.

"Number?"

Wen Shao was about to mention someone when Xu Tui suddenly said, "Teacher, I need one too."

"Two people."

Wen Shao looked deeply at Xu Tui.

The applause gradually stopped. The students below the stage were a little shocked by Deng Wei's injuries. After all, according to what Mr. Wen said, Deng Wei's external injuries were rather serious. However, no one sympathized with Deng Wei.

He had asked for it because he was too arrogant. He was too ignorant.

On the contrary, the students became concerned about Xu Tui's injuries. A caring female student had already brought him a tissue. Far away, Che Zhan gave Xu Tui a thumbs-up.

Xu Tui rubbed the remaining smooth pearl in his hand. He then looked at Deng Wei, who had fallen to the ground and was howling in pain. A hint of sympathy flashed past his eyes, but it quickly became determined. He had asked for it. He had already given Deng Wei a chance.

However, not only did Deng Wei use extreme force, he also did not hold back when he stomped on the areas where Xu Tui had no protective gear. He deserved it.

"He shouldn't have any serious residual effects, right?"

Deng Wei had avoided the mental awl that Xu Tui had aimed at his eyes just now. However, he did not manage to avoid Xu Tui's flicking technique. One of the two pearls accurately pierced into the knee joint of Deng Wei's left leg from the side and interrupted his attack. The other pearl hit Deng Wei's vital spot at his lower abdomen.

Xu Tui did not know exactly how badly he was injured. However, it was definitely not light.

Two minutes passed. Deng Wei was still crying out in pain. He could not get up on his own.

Wen Shao, who had always been smiling, had a dark expression while he was waiting for the emergency treatment.

This class is…

....

Less than three minutes later, the medical personnel from the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College's Emergency Medical Center rushed over. They were carrying two gurneys.

Xu Tui laid down on the gurney by himself.

The medical personnel first examined Deng Wei's injuries to see if he needed emergency treatment. However, he became extremely shocked after he took a look.

"Mr. Wen, what happened? Why was it so brutal? It has not been three months, right?"

"Do your best to treat him. I'll release a report about the incident later." Wen Shao had a headache.

The ambulance had left. There was a pool of blood on the temporary stage. There were also specks of blood.

The grim-faced Mr. Wen Shao continued his lesson. "Students, there was an accident during today's practical battle. However, it is more educational.

"The battle between Che Zhan and Deng Wei was a practice run. The battle between Xu Tui and Deng Wei was closer to a real battle. Their actions were a little extreme, but it was closer to an actual battle.

"However, I want to tell you that the outcome of today's battle is nothing. Because you are new students, you have three months of rapid growth. Therefore, you will be protected for the next three months.

"Three months later, getting injured or severely injured would become a daily occurrence for you. You might even die. Of course, the medical center and emergency services in our school are all very professional. They are one of the best in the Capital. You can rest assured about that."

At this point, Wen Shao paused. "Next, I'll set up the homework for today. There are two things that the Mystery Branch has to pay attention to during battle. The first is an analysis of today's battle drill.

"The second part is an analysis of the things to pay attention to during battle based on your specialization and ability. You have to submit your report two days later. I'll go through them one by one.

"Class dismissed."

After Wen Shao left, the Mystery Branch students did not disperse as usual. Instead, they gathered to discuss what had happened today. Many students had already started to repost their posts on social media.

"A student from the Extreme Branch failed to challenge the Mystery Branch and got injured instead!"

"A student from the Extreme Branch came to the Mystery Branch for a demonstration and looked down on everyone else. He was beaten instead!"

....

There were a variety of headlines. However, most of them were set to be viewed by a special audience.

The rules of conduct for genetic newcomers were very strict.

It had only been 20 days since the school opened, but many of the new students had already received a fine from the Special Intelligence Division. Some of the more severe cases had even been called to an education center to write a reflection.

It was rumored that a daring individual had uploaded a video of the principal flicking his fingers in his accounts for his friends to see. The Special Intelligence Division then fined him 10,000 dollars and lectured him for a day.

He even wrote a 10,000-word reflection report when he returned to school. His level treatment also dropped by one level.

Thus, everyone had learned their lesson.

...

Emergency Medical Center.

Xu Tui's injuries were treated quickly. He had a slight concussion, swollen eardrums, and bloodshot eyes. His soft tissue was severely bruised, and his left tooth was slightly fractured.

The doctor administered an injection to Xu Tui.

"You can return to the dormitory to rest after observation for half a day. I've administered the Bone Growth Acceleration Elixir to you. Your bone fracture should recover in three to four days. Pay attention to it during these few days." The medical personnel administering the injection suddenly asked, "Did you injure that lad?"

Xu Tui nodded.

"Hah! You sure are impressive."

"How is he? Is it serious?"

"He had severe contusions to his testicles, which were accompanied by edema and bleeding. He has been through emergency treatment, but the situation is not optimistic. Even if the testicles are not completely necrotic, they would be partially necrotic. He would need to be treated with surgery in the future."

The outcome was a little too severe.

"It wouldn't affect his future, would it?"

"It would definitely affect him. However, the impact on his male abilities would not be too great. After all, the other one is good. But the real problem is the injury at his knee," the medical personnel said.

"Knee? What's wrong with his knee? That pearl might have pierced through his pants, but it would definitely not have pierced through his kneecap, right?" Xu Tui was shocked.

"It did not pierce through his kneecap. However, the angle was to the side, so the pearl happened to enter Deng Wei's knee joint."

"There shouldn't be a problem. The torn ligaments in the joints can be treated."

"The ligament is indeed damaged. However, the troublesome thing is this pearl."

"The pearls are poisonous? That's not possible, right?" That was the first possibility Xu Tui thought of.

"This pearl is not poisonous. Furthermore, it is a truly rare natural pearl."

"Then what's going on?"

The medical personnel looked at Xu Tui and were a little frustrated. "The natural pearls are not that strong. They shattered when they hit the inside of the knee joint. They shattered into countless little dots. Yes, it looks like they were beaten into pearl powder."

"Pearl powder?"

Xu Tui instantly imagined a rather terrifying scene.

"That's right. Just as you thought, the fine pearl powder has entered his knee joint and is spraying everywhere. The ligaments, meniscus, synovial membrane, and joint cartilage were all covered in this kind of pearl powder. The levels of the powder varied. The difficulty of the operation was extremely high. There might be residual effects!"

"I don't know about that. I didn't do it on purpose," Xu Tui said.

"Write an explanation report after you're done. The school will definitely investigate such a serious incident that happened within three months of a new student entering the school." The medical personnel were very kind.

"Thank you."

....

According to what the medical personnel said, Deng Wei's injuries were more severe than Xu Tui had expected. He might have to replace some of his knee joints. This had a large impact on Deng Wei, especially since he was a student from the Extreme Branch.

These kinds of injuries made Deng Wei's left leg a painful point and a weakness. After a knee replacement, the activation of genetic base points could not be done on the knee.

It could be said that Deng Wei's future had been largely ruined by his injuries in this battle. The consequences were rather severe.

Did Xu Tui regret what he did?

He did not regret it. He did not regret it at all.

Xu Tui might have been more merciless if he had to do it again.

Today, Xu Tui received another education. He started to reflect. However, he felt a little pity for Deng Wei. He had been blinded by the people who were leading the way and had taken the initiative to cause trouble for Xu Tui. He could only say that he deserved it.

Of course, Deng Wei was not purely blinded by the person leading the group. There might be other effects, such as utility and reputation. Otherwise, he would not have deliberately recorded a video before the battle. He would have saved the Extreme Branch's reputation by beating Xu Tui up early on. Then, Deng Wei's reputation in the Extreme Branch Institute would reach a very high level. He would be able to assume a few student roles to a large extent.

In a top college like the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College, the position that any student could hold was of utmost importance.

That was only one of the benefits.

...

"Wen Shao, what happened in your class? The medical center called just now and said that Deng Wei might have to have his knee replaced. Do you know what that means to a student from the Extreme Branch Institute? You were the one who invited the student over. You have to give me an explanation for this!" Inside the office, Wen Shao received a scolding call.

It was a call from the vice-chairman of the Extreme Branch Institute, Zhou Wenji.

"Vice-Chairman Zhou, this was an accident." The corner of Wen Shao's mouth was filled with bitterness.

"The student was almost crippled! And you dare to say it's an accident? How does a teacher like you manage things? Also, who was the student that injured him? How could he be so merciless?' How could he be so merciless to his classmates? It had not been three months.

"Is he going to kill someone after three months?" Vice-Chairman Zhou sounded very angry.

"Your Mystery Branch has to give us an explanation for this matter. You have to punish the student who injured him severely!"

Wen Shao still wanted to say something, but Vice-Chairman Zhou had already hung up the phone.

Chapter 67: Crippling and The Video (1)

Xu Tui only stayed in the emergency center for two hours. Under his intense request, Dr. He allowed Xu Tui to sign on the form before letting him leave. These two hours were a quiet two hours.

Xu Tui thought about it and reflected on himself.

Both Wen Shao and the doctor at the emergency center mentioned a deadline: three months. The three months of a new student's life was a period of rapid growth and protection. It was a little like the novice protection period in the game. The competition that the school allowed was relatively lesser.

However, the competition became completely open three months later. According to the rules, if both parties were willing, they could injure or even kill the other party, much less cripple the other party.

Competition was encouraged in both the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College and the other genetic evolution colleges. Those who had the upper hand in the competition would receive a large number of cultivation resources.

The most famous of them all was the Longhu List.

They have the Longhu List for the first years to the third years. There was no Longhu List for fourth-year students.

First, many of the seniors had not been in school during their fourth year, especially those who had the ability and were powerful. They had long left the school. It was meaningless for them to be listed on the Year Four Longhu List alone.

Other than that, there was also the overall rankings of the school. There were 100 rankings for both the Longhu List and the Longhu Overall Rankings.

The first was called the Dragon. The top 10 were called the Tigers. So a total of one dragon and nine tigers! The rest of the people on the rankings were called the Talents.

Those who failed to enter the rankings would become dust under the wind.

Honor was one thing. However, the benefits of having true ability were immense.

For example, Dragon in the number one spot in every grade could collect four bottles of Level E energy restoration elixirs from the school every three days as long as he was on the rankings for more than three days. He consumed more than one bottle a day.

That was only one of the benefits.

If one could enter the top 10 and be a Tiger, he could only obtain three Level E energy restoration elixirs every three days. The second on the Longhu List, which was the best Tiger of each grade, had additional benefits.

The students ranked 11th to 40th could receive two bottles of Level E energy restoration elixirs every three days.

From the 41st to the 70th place, a student could receive a Level E Energy Restoration Elixir every three days.

From the 71st to the 100th place, a person could receive 30 Level F Energy Restoration Pills every three days or, after accumulating them, a bottle of Level E Energy Restoration Elixir every six days.

What made Xu Tui even more excited was that the energy restoration elixir rewarded for the people on the school's Longhu Overall Rankings had become an even more precious Level D elixir!

A bottle of a Level D Energy Restoration Elixir was worth 50,000 dollars.

Is the Longhu List dangerous?

Yes!

According to Dr. He, because of the Longhu List, students would be severely injured or even forced out of the school every year. Some might even die.

Death was not uncommon. The safety precautions worked a little at this moment.

In the words of Doctor He, since they were going to fight for the rankings, they had to be prepared to be injured or even killed. They had to pay a price if they wanted to obtain more resources. Otherwise, why would the school and the government invest millions in a student like you?

?

If Dragon of the first-year Longhu List could hold on to its position for a year, the value of the Level E Energy Elixirs would total 2.4 million dollars a year.

A fortune of 2.4 million dollars. If it was Xu Tui's father, Xu Jianguo, he would have to work hard for 40 years without eating or drinking to save such a large sum of money.

Of course, they can choose not to fight. They would graduate peacefully and become a more ordinary genetic newcomer. If there were no accidents, a student who had graduated from the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College could find a stable job, get married, and have children.

As long as the extraterrestrial situation on the Blue Star is stable, the extraterrestrial battlefield, the extraterrestrial invaders, the latest genetic technology, and even genetic weapons have nothing to do with you.

Would they be content with that?

Xu Tui would definitely not be content with that. When the time came, he would definitely have to fight for his place on the Longhu List.

It was also this starting point that made Xu Tui feel that today's battle drill with Deng Wei was a reminder to him.

That was not an actual battle.

Xu Tui might be able to better protect himself if he had to go through the same battle drill today. However, he would not severely injure Deng Wei during their first or second exchange. It was even more impossible for him to directly explode Deng Wei's eyeballs.

First, this was essentially a sparring session between students. Deng Wei might have had a problem with his intentions, but Xu Tui had not crippled him for life by blowing out his eyeballs the moment he attacked. He was not that cruel.

Xu Tui was a high school student who came from a normal family. He was a little mean, a little mischievous, a little cunning, but definitely not brutal. More importantly, the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College's rules for new students were not for show.

If Xu Tui managed to make Deng Wei's eyeballs explode during their first exchange, what awaited him tomorrow was an expulsion order. He would also have to bear legal responsibility and financial compensation.

Xu Tui remembered the lesson that An Xiaoxue had taught him. Learn to use the rules to protect yourself!

So he extended his plan and used the rules to attack his enemies.

During their second exchange, Deng Wei had intentionally injured Xu Tui. Even though he had no intention of killing Xu Tui, they were already enemies.

That resulted in the third round.

However, Deng Wei's injuries were more severe than Xu Tui had expected. He had been crippled.

Xu Tui had his own plans for this. However, he did not think that crippling an individual would result in a fatal change to his future.

Chapter 68: Crippling and the Video (2)

This was part of using the rules to attack the enemy. The battle today had awakened Xu Tui to his individual abilities.

Before this, Xu Tui had always believed in a saying: A professional was the most powerful. It was the same as constantly strengthening your specialization to become more powerful. He would be sloppy if he wanted to be proficient in everything.

In the past, Xu Tui had thought that way. However, today, Xu Tui suddenly started to doubt that understanding.

The theory of winning or losing in a one-on-one battle was accurate.

What if the premise was survival? What if it was a chaotic battle? What if it was a battle of numbers?

Just like today, when Xu Tui had fought Deng Wei for the second time, he had clearly seen the trajectory of Deng Wei's attack through the feedback of his mental senses and had come up with a plan to avoid it.

As long as he could execute the plan, he would be able to avoid Deng Wei's attacks. However, Xu Tui's overall reaction could not match up to the feedback he got from his mind. He could only take a beating.

Xu Tui had been thinking about this question during the two hours he was at the emergency center.

How should he develop his training direction in the future? Was it to strengthen the specialization, specialized in training the mind power, just like An Xiaoxue, who used powerful mind power to control the battlefield? Or should he adopt a different approach and develop his training based on his overall needs?

That choice was very important. It could be said that this decision would determine Xu Tui's future.

Xu Tui still did not have an answer even after he thought about it for two hours. However, he understood that he had to make a choice within the next two months.

....

In the afternoon, Xu Tui returned to the classroom with his injuries. The lessons recently had been on fundamental theory. They were very important. He did not want to miss classes.

The incident during his morning practice session had made Xu Tui a celebrity.

Deng Wei, who had wanted to make a name for himself by humiliating Xu Tui, was not the only person who had recorded the incident. Many students had also done the same.

The video became a hot topic in the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College when it was uploaded onto a specific social media platform.

The click rate soared.

Most of the students supported Xu Tui.

After the first lesson in the afternoon, Xu Tui received a call from the disciplinary division. He had to give an explanation of how Deng Wei was severely injured and crippled during today's combat drill.

According to the notice on the disciplinary division's phone, Deng Wei had already completed his emergency surgery. A third of the testicales that had been severely injured had been removed. They had also lost some of their function.

Originally, the emergency center had planned to replace Deng Wei's knee with a brand new bionic knee joint so that Deng Wei's movements would not be affected after the replacement. However, it would become the biggest problem for Deng Wei's future training in the Extreme Branch. The genetic ability chain that involved the knee joint could not be activated.

Deng Wei's Extreme Branch ability could continuously enhance the rest of his body, but the strength of his knee would always remain the same. It could be said that Deng Wei's leg functions would not be affected after his knee joint was changed. However, his training in the Extreme Branch would become useless.

Deng Wei was one of the geniuses among the first-year students of the Extreme Branch Institute. He would be a powerful contender for the first-year Longhu List in the future.

Deng Wei felt extremely indignant that he was crippled just like that. Finally, he chose to preserve the knee joint at the cost of losing a portion of its function and enduring the pain. That way, he could continue to train his Extreme Branch abilities.

If he had the chance to reach the Genetic Evolution Stage or the Genetic Transmutation Stage in the future, he might be able to use the powerful power of evolution to repair his body's disabilities.

However, for the foreseeable future, Deng Wei would become a cripple. He was crippled!

The emergency surgery had been completed. The results of the consultations from several experts were the same. He was crippled during the battle drill.

The teachers and students of the Extreme Branch Institute were furious and requested for the school to investigate. That was how the disciplinary division got involved.

Not long after Xu Tui received the call from the disciplinary division, the news that Deng Wei had been severely injured during a battle drill spread throughout the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College.

Xu Tui had not even passed the three months growth phase for the new students, yet he had crippled someone during a battle drill. This was something that had never happened in the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College before.

The school encouraged competition outside of the three-month protection period. There was nothing to be shocked about if there were incidents of maiming. However, if such an incident happened during the three-month protection period, it would become a vicious incident.

Soon, another trending video pushed the matter to the extreme.

A popular information creator in the school called "Eternity Begins" released a video.

It was a video of the drill. He only released a video of the third battle between Xu Tui and Deng Wei.

In the video, Xu Tui had taken action and severely injured Deng Wei.

"Crippled! The overlord who had once defeated an Extreme Branch new student brutally attacked again and crippled an Extreme Branch new student!"

Once this video was released, it immediately became the number one trending video in the school. A large number of students who did not know the truth started to shout insults at Xu Tui in the comments section.

Student Rong Youyang from the School of Enlightened Mind immediately found Xu Tui and reported his discovery. Public opinion might be detrimental to Xu Tui if this continued.

"Find out how to contact the person who sent the message. I'll send him an urgent email first." After he said his piece, Xu Tui sent an email to the person who had sent the message, 'Eternity Begins'.

He explained the incomplete video and attached a complete video. He requested that he modify the video as soon as possible. However, he did not receive any reply after half an hour.

However, the information producer, 'Eternity Begins', once again released a video of Xu Tui fighting Yuan Shu and his group during this time.

"A first-year student is brutal by nature. He crippled his opponent immediately!"

This edited video quickly became a hot topic. After all, this person was a source of information for the school. He had 40,000 fans in the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College. Even though 40,000 fans was not a large number, these 40,000 fans were all genetic newcomers from the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College.

In other words, nearly 80% of the students and teachers in the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College were paying attention to his trending video. How much influence would he have when he released a video of the fight?

Xu Tui was anxious to contact him. However, the Mystery Branch students had not been on the campus for long and did not know who this person really was.

At the critical moment, it was still Chai Xiao who helped him. He soon sent Xu Tui a set of phone numbers and a message.

"Brother, the person who uploaded the trending video is in his third year. This is his information. Contact him yourself and talk to him. I have some conflict with him, so it's not convenient for me to step in."
