"Damn it, Yuan Zhiping, are you crazy?! You dare to hit me?!"
"It's one thing to bully trash like Houzi, but you dare to lay hands on me?!"
"You probably don't know how to write the word 'death'!"
Lei Gang, with the most explosive temper, suddenly unleashed his lightning energy, causing the air around him to crackle with sparks.
They had no idea what happened after their heads were cut off, nor how much Zhang Chen's help had improved Yuan Zhiping and the others during their capture.
They were still viewing the people around them with their old mindset.
"Tch, you don't think your Level 5 ability makes you all-powerful, do you!"
"Since studying with Teacher Zhang, I've learned that there's always someone better, and the importance of humility!"
"Since you want to fight... then... Teacher Zhang, please allow me to teach this guy a lesson on your behalf!"
Yuan Zhiping respectfully asked Zhang Chen.
"Hmm, go easy on him. They're all classmates. It wouldn't be good if you killed him!"
Zhang Chen automatically made the bricks on the city wall form a chair, and he casually sat down, looking like he was enjoying the show.
"Ha, Yuan Zhiping, you're truly insane. Unless a physique-type ability user is incredibly powerful, they're no match for my lightning-type!"
"It's not bragging, but among all ability talents, the lightning-type is arguably the strongest, bar none!"
Lei Gang said with a sneer at Yuan Zhiping.
The lightning-type not only allowed for the release of lightning for attack or defense but could also significantly boost one's movement speed.
This was a fatal blow to physique-type ability users.
Physique-type users excelled in their physical strength, power, and speed.
Now, without the speed advantage, what use was mere strength?
A punch from a flesh body hitting lightning armor would only result in a shocked, incontinent mess.
"Let's fight below the city wall and not disturb the others!"
Yuan Zhiping said, then leaped off the city wall.
"Stupid. Fighting in an open space, are you sure you're not just asking for death?"
"On the narrow city wall, with the cover of other classmates, you might have stood a chance to escape!"
"In an open area... heh..."
Lei Gang slowly floated up, thin currents connecting him to the ground, generating repulsive force with the magnetic field, allowing his body to descend slowly to the ground.
He showed off this skill to let his classmates witness the power of his ability.
However, to his surprise, apart from Qin Yan and Chen Yan, who were greatly impressed,
the other classmates watched coldly, and some even showed pity in their eyes when they looked at him.
"What's going on? Pitying me?"
"Will I, a Level 5 ability user, be defeated by a physique-type?"
Lei Gang felt a surge of anger.
It was time to let these less-informed classmates know his strength!
"Gale Dash!"
Lei Gang's figure exploded, his speed increasing significantly.
"So fast, I can't track his movements at all!"
Chen Yan exclaimed admiringly from the side.
"What's the use of speed if you can't break through my psychic defense? It's all in vain!"
Qin Yan said dismissively.
"Ha, how about that? Fast enough that you can't keep up with my rhythm!"
Lei Gang ran rapidly around Yuan Zhiping, taunting him.
"Something's wrong... his eyes..."
After only a few laps, Lei Gang suddenly realized that although Yuan Zhiping's eyes didn't constantly follow him, as long as he moved his eyeballs to observe him, he could pinpoint his location!
*Bang!*
Yuan Zhiping suddenly threw a punch, sending Lei Gang flying dozens of meters. His body rolled another seven or eight meters on the ground before stopping.
The electrical sparks on his body sputtered and crackled like a leaking battery.
"Your speed is much slower than I expected. It seems your new ability techniques are a bit rubbish!"
Yuan Zhiping said, clapping his hands.
When he had attacked Lei Gang earlier, the lightning armor on Lei Gang's body had indeed sent a powerful current through Yuan Zhiping's body.
But unfortunately, Yuan Zhiping's physical strength could already ignore currents of this magnitude.
At least, for a brief contact, it wouldn't cause any adverse effects.
"Hey, you guys who disrespected Teacher Zhang, who else is not convinced? Come down and get beaten!"
Yuan Zhiping looked up at Qin Yan and Chen Yan, provocatively.
"Lei Gang got a bit too carried away. If he had just kept using lightning attacks, he wouldn't have lost so miserably!"
"And... Yuan Zhiping, your rapid improvement in such a short time is indeed unexpected."
"However, I won't be as easy to deal with as Lei Gang. I don't want you to get roasted by me. You can still leave now if you want!"
Chen Yan said, lightly leaping down from the city wall.
"Teacher Zhang said he needed to head back urgently, so I can't waste time!"
"My apologies!"
Yuan Zhiping said, his figure suddenly surging, and he instantly appeared behind Chen Yan.
"What..."
Chen Yan had no time to react before his vision went black, and he was easily knocked unconscious by Yuan Zhiping.
"This... Chen Yan was defeated before he could even use his ability?!"
Qin Yan's heart skipped a beat.
Her previous arrogance had largely dissipated.
Yuan Zhiping had defeated two Level 5 ability users in mere minutes. Such strength was comparable to the big shots in the Ability Fluctuation Management Bureau.
"You... How did you do it?"
Qin Yan asked, shocked.
"Don't waste time. I don't want to fight women. Apologize to Teacher Zhang and learn from him properly!"
"You have talent, but compared to Teacher Zhang, you're not even worth a single toe of his!"
Yuan Zhiping said calmly.
If he had said this normally, the class would have erupted.
But now, it garnered unanimous agreement from the entire class.
"Saying toes might be too much. I'd estimate it's the strength of a single hair on his toe!"
"I used to think Qin Yan was quite cool, but now she seems really childish!"
"The entire class acknowledges Teacher Zhang. Don't hold out any longer, apologize quickly!"
The students chimed in, one after another. They used to side with Qin Yan, but now they had all switched to Zhang Chen's side.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Zhang!"
Although Qin Yan was unconvinced, she bowed and apologized to Zhang Chen due to the pressure from the others and Yuan Zhiping's formidable combat prowess.
However, this apology was superficial. In her heart, she remained unconvinced.
Therefore, she secretly activated her psychic ability.
*Crack!*
Suddenly, a powerful counterforce snapped Qin Yan's fingers one by one. This was the natural phản lực of Zhang Chen's surface energy field.
Zhang Chen didn't even feel any damage and even warmly shook Qin Yan's hand.
The latter gritted her teeth in pain, having suffered a great loss, yet she dared not complain, as it would be even more embarrassing.
She could only clench her teeth, her face contorted into a grimace of pain.
