Chapter 66: Living in the Shadow of Cheng Han

Cheng Han held the secret medicine in his hand and quietly completed a deduction.

The result was surprising.

Under normal circumstances, due to the imperfections of the human body, the effectiveness of the secret medicine would inevitably "leak" to some extent, unable to be fully utilized.

But the students of the Sealing Class were different. They could be described as "holes" in terms of data, with an utilization rate of the Vitality-Boosting Secret Medicine ranging from 58% to 76%.

But Cheng Han was different.

The True Flame Seal and the Embrace the Furnace Stance had a wonderful synergistic effect, which could increase the utilization rate to about 93%.

The Mountain Range Secret Medicine contained special ingredients that had a stimulating effect on the spirit, and the Spirit Realm Seal focused on the spiritual domain, with an utilization rate of this ingredient reaching close to 88%.

In short, the effect of Cheng Han taking the secret medicine was far stronger than that of other students.

At this moment, Gu Jinglong waved his right hand and shouted, "Everyone, take the medicine quickly."

The students immediately took action.

They first drank the secret medicine in one gulp, then assumed the strange posture of "embracing the great furnace", and finally shouted one after another.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

This was not just random shouting.

It was a unique rhythm that stimulated the Source Sensation Seal in the Sea of Spirit, combined with the secret medicine they had taken, ultimately achieving the goal of tempering their bodies.

This was the experience summed up by countless strong individuals.

But Cheng Han shouted:

"Flame!"

This shout contained the power of the True Flame Seal.

To others, it inexplicably gave rise to a feeling of heat.

Gu Jinglong was stunned for a moment, subconsciously turned his head to look at Cheng Han, and immediately showed a look of astonishment.

Scarface clearly remembered that a few days ago, when Cheng Han first practiced the Embrace the Furnace Stance, a faint heat rose from the top of his head and his skin turned slightly red.

This was already very impressive.

But it was still within an acceptable range.

But now, Cheng Han had turned into a cooked prawn, with his skin turning deep red.

Not only was heat rising from the top of his head, but every pore on his body seemed to be spewing steam.

For a moment, Cheng Han was surrounded by clouds and mist, and his figure became indistinct.

The only one who hadn't taken the medicine, Ren Yong, was completely dumbfounded.

Gu Jinglong stared blankly for a while, his face full of disbelief.

This was clearly a special phenomenon that only appeared when the Embrace the Furnace Stance was practiced to the "Smoke-Filled Pill Furnace" level.

Scarface muttered to himself, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought that this kid had been practicing the Embrace the Furnace Stance for several years."

"It seems that there is a saying that a few lucky ones have a compatibility with the secret medicine that far exceeds the norm. Could Cheng Han also be like this with the Mountain Range Secret Medicine?"

Apart from this, Gu Jinglong couldn't think of any other explanation.

Twenty minutes later.

The other students had absorbed about half of the secret medicine, about 20% of the total.

For the remaining half, they would have to practice the Embrace the Furnace Stance every day to fully absorb the remaining medicinal power, and then they could take the next dose.

Unfortunately, this was only an ideal state.

The quota provided by the Black Armor Army was one bottle of secret medicine per month.

At this moment.

Cheng Han was still enveloped in mist.

Naturally, he became the center of attention once again.

Gu Jinglong looked around and said in a lecturing tone, "Take a good look, all of you, at what a true genius is."

Everyone fell silent.

Students like Jun Changkong, who were somewhat proud, had a little bit of dissatisfaction in their hearts, but now they completely abandoned the idea of competing with Cheng Han.

If the other party was only one step ahead, they might have a chance to catch up with some effort.

But the other party was already more than ten steps ahead, how could they catch up?

Another five minutes passed.

Cheng Han finally stopped.

Gu Jinglong immediately asked, "How is the effect of taking the secret medicine?"

Cheng Han nodded gently, "Very good."

He had just checked his own attributes and found that his maximum spirit value had reached 25.6 points.

Compared to before, it had increased by 0.1 point!

According to the deduction results, if he fully absorbed the Mountain Range Secret Medicine, he could increase his spirit value by another 0.2 points.

Gu Jinglong didn't ask for more details, he just said, "Starting today, you will be responsible for guiding the students in the Sealing Class in practicing the Embrace the Furnace Stance."

Cheng Han's lips moved, wanting to say "pay me more".

I'm just a student, and you're making me take on teaching tasks. This is extra work, shouldn't I be paid more?

Gu Jinglong seemed to be prepared and said preemptively, "Your squad leader allowance is already high enough, so I don't plan to pay you more this time!"

Many people smiled.

Cheng Han reluctantly made a concession: "Fine."

He thought for a moment and emphasized loudly, "Next time, you'll have to pay more!"

One free pass is acceptable!

But not every time!

Gu Jinglong shook his head speechlessly.

This kid is good in every way, except he can't stop saying "pay more."

Scarface waved his hand and ordered, "Now, free practice. Cheng Han is in charge of discipline."

After saying this, Gu Jinglong left straight away.

A classmate named Cai Cheng approached with a pleasing tone and asked, "Class monitor, could you give me some pointers on my Bao Lu stance?"

Cheng Han straightforwardly said, "Show me your posture."

Cai Cheng followed his instructions.

Cheng Han made a brief deduction, pretended to observe for a while, and then began to explain in great detail, "There are six main issues with your Bao Lu stance..."

All the other students gathered around and listened attentively.

Even Jun Changkong, who thought he had practiced this stance well, was no exception.

Training ended.

Jun Changkong took a leisurely hot shower and changed his clothes. When he walked out, he found that the hall seemed to be empty.

He scanned the empty hall and suddenly felt a strong nostalgia for the past.

In the past, if the leaders of the factions hadn't left, the other students wouldn't dare to leave first.

But ever since a certain third-year student became the class monitor, every time training ended, this kid would always shout things like "Hurry up and go home" or "Stop dawdling," and all the other students would run away quickly.

Jun Changkong couldn't help but shake his head and mutter, "The rules have been ruined."

What was even more annoying was that most of the people who used to show him respect had now joined Cheng Han's side and seemed to support that kid.

Compared to the past, Jun Changkong strongly felt what it meant to be "ignored at the door."

"Bang! Bang!"

Slightly heavy footsteps came from the other side.

Jun Changkong turned his head and caught sight of a burly figure.

It was Wen Hui.

The latter walked over quickly and asked a pointless question, "You're still here?"

Jun Changkong made a sound of agreement and didn't say anything more.

The two stood at the door, gazing at the snowy scenery outside, and fell into silence together.

After a long while.

Wen Hui murmured, "I really want to graduate early."

Jun Changkong understood the other's state of mind and nodded, saying, "Just the thought of living in that kid's shadow in the future makes me feel uncomfortable."

Wen Hui sighed deeply, "Yeah."

*

Nighttime.

The black cat noticed that something seemed off about its owner.

"Snap!"

A faint sound came from the direction of the bathroom.

The black cat walked over and took a glance, immediately noticing that its owner's right hand was tightly gripping a broken doorknob, with a rather complicated expression on his face.

Curiously, it asked, "Meow?"

This sentence meant: Why did you break the doorknob? Don't you like it?

Cheng Han sighed and wore a pained expression, saying, "Today, I took the Luan Mountain secret medicine, and my strength suddenly increased quite a bit. I couldn't control it."

The black cat flicked its tail and returned to its spot next to the fireplace.

It had no solution to this kind of thing either.

Under normal circumstances, the transformation of the secret medicine on the body wouldn't happen so quickly.

After the other students in the Jie Yin class took the strengthening secret medicine, their strength would only slowly increase, naturally adapting to it.

But Cheng Han's situation was different.

He took a stronger Luan Mountain secret medicine, combined with the auxiliary effect of the True Flame Seal, which greatly accelerated the digestion speed of the secret medicine.

Other students practicing the Bao Lu stance could only absorb twenty percent, while he directly absorbed over forty percent.

In just a short two hours, his strength had increased by ten percent.

Enough to be called a sudden surge!

But this also brought a side effect. His nervous system was temporarily unable to adapt to the rapid increase in strength, resulting in this embarrassing situation.

After a while.

"Clang!"

A loud noise came from the kitchen.

The black cat extended its claws and covered its ears.

It was too noisy!

Without even looking, it knew that its owner hadn't been able to control his strength again and accidentally punctured a hole in the bottom of the iron pot.

As expected.

Cheng Han's voice floated over, "Sheriff, it seems we'll have to eat a little later tonight. I'll go to the grocery store first and buy a new iron pot."

The black cat immediately responded with a "Meow~"
