Chapter 109: A Boy Worth Teaching

“Huh? Wait, what?” The acne-covered boy was stunned. “Wait, I haven’t—”

Before he could finish speaking, with a loud slap, Meng Chao’s sharp hand drew a perfect arc that slammed into his face. He nearly broke the boy’s nose. He also sent the acne-covered boy on the floor, which made him cough up blood. His pained cries turned into moans.

Meng Chao squatted down and poured out all twenty-two monster coins from the boy’s helmet and put them into his cup. He looked around.

A number of students had seen their interaction, but no one dared to come steal his monster coins.

In fact, one of them covered his mouth and giggled. “Did you see that idiot? He just had to go and provoke Meng Chao. Everyone knows that Meng Chao is a broken-star superhuman. He won’t be improving quickly, but right now, his fighting strength is really high!”

Meng Chao thought about it for a while and decided to give some guidance to the acne-covered boy. He would just pretend that the twenty monster coins were his learning fee.

“My dear coursemate, the biggest difference between a superhuman and normal human is that superhumans can create spirit energy magnetic fields. This is their greatest advantage. But that doesn’t mean you should constantly release major moves during fights. This is especially so when you’ve just become a superhuman.

“At this time, your main meridians are thin, and your spirit energy can flow through them smoothly. Your muscles and nerves can’t really coordinate with each other yet, and your control over spirit energy isn’t very stable.

“When you create a spirit energy magnetic field, you need a few seconds to do so. Do you think that your opponent is an idiot and will wait for you to acc.u.mulate your power like some dumb idiot? And then give you time to attack on top of that?”

No notification jumped up in Meng Chao’s field of vision. He did not know whether the groaning acne-covered boy had listened to his words.

Meng Chao stood up and strode confidently into the center of the field. A plan that he found worth trying gradually rose in his mind.

He first looked for Xie Feng.

The fourth among the Four Great Kings currently looked like a hylobatidae. He was fighting against five students.

Those students were naturally not his opponents. Every time he threw them on the ground, he grabbed dozens of monster coins from them.

But whenever Xie Feng had around one hundred and twenty or one hundred and thirty monster coins on his head, they spilled out from his cup.

As long as the students kept charging at him fearlessly, they were able to get dozens of monster coins from him without even using flashy moves.

And when Xie Feng’s monster coins were reduced to fewer than one hundred, he was able to start moving freely. His fighting strength increased by leaps and bounds, and he could seize his monster coins back.

The two sides were engaged in a tug of war and getting exhausted, but no winner was in sight.

Meng Chao watched for a long time, then giggled in spite of himself.

When Xie Feng saw him, he was delighted. “Meng Chao, help me get rid of these guys, and we’ll split their monster coins!”

“Sure!” Meng Chao nodded readily and joined the battle.

The people attacking Xie Feng knew Meng Chao as well, so they could not help but focus. They were on guard.

But when Meng Chao faced them, he suddenly did a scorpion tail pendulum and used a roundhouse kick to kick Xie Feng’s chest from an unbelievable angle.

Bang!

A loud sound rose from Xie Feng’s chest. Even though his biochemical fighting suit gathered together to form a sh.e.l.l to fend against the attack, he was still sent three steps back. His neck was thrown back, and dozens of monster coins spilled out.

He was shocked and angry, so he yelled, “Meng Chao, what are you doing?!”

“It’s meaningless to fight against these small fry.” Meng Chao smiled. “You have more than one hundred monster coins on you. Who else am I supposed to hit aside from you?”

Before his voice could fade, he charged forward and threw a punch.

Xie Feng had already cleared sixty main meridians, so his spirit energy poured into his arms, making them as hard as steel. Naturally, he was not afraid of Meng Chao’s punches.

But when they exchanged fists, more coins spilled out from his cup. Yet he had no time to pick them up. Instead, the jackals patrolling the area nearby got lucky.

Xie Feng found himself not knowing whether he should laugh or cry. “Sun Ya and the others have more than one hundred monster coins as well, so why aren’t you going to them?”

“Because... I’m close to you!” Meng Chao smiled brilliantly.

Xie Feng felt so gloomy that he was about to faint. After they exchanged a few blows, he noticed that Meng Chao was serious, so he stopped hesitating and crossed his arms. He bent his fingers and started focusing on creating his spirit energy magnetic field so that he could release a major move.

Then, he was sent flying away by a savage blow from Meng Chao.

“Why do you guys love releasing major moves so much? Don’t you know that the amount of time you need to acc.u.mulate power for your spirit energy magnetic field, where you stiffen up, and then cool down are really long?”

The Beast Soul Style was a variation of the Overkill Style. Both of them paid attention to creating a complicated and large spirit energy magnetic field.

The newer a person was to becoming a superhuman, the more they wanted to release major moves, and the longer they took to acc.u.mulate power.

Now, the popular method to deal with this problem was to use monster blood to refine the body and use mind refining methods to refine the spirit. Then, during battles, they could release an all-encompa.s.sing aura and a killing intent that could pierce the enemy’s soul. It would intimidate the enemy and earn precious time to acc.u.mulate power.

There were also people who liked to shout when they released a move, announcing the names of their moves, like Impact Wave or something like that.

It might make them sound like idiots entertaining delusions of grandeur, but in reality, their voices contained powerful mental strength, and it was an attack against the target’s mind. They would usually be stunned and would just stand still to get hit.

There were even people who had a few of the main meridians release absolutely unnecessary light and electricity while they were creating their spirit energy magnetic fields to confuse the enemy and earn time.

For the time being, the monsters were dumb, so the dazzling tricks were still effective against them.

The new superhumans who did not have enough experience in fighting were easily suppressed by the presence of an elite. They were also intimidated by the shouts or confused by the light and electricity. Then, they would be hit while they were still dazzled. Afterwards, they would even think that their opponent’s attack was so incredibly dazzling and beautiful that it was amazing.

But Meng Chao just felt that... they were full of openings. Everywhere. Like seriously.

His gaze was intense. He moved like a phantom, and with just the power of his physical body, he repeatedly interrupted Xie Feng’s process of acc.u.mulating power for his spirit energy magnetic field.

To Xie Feng, Meng Chao was like a piece of sesame hide sugar that he could shatter, could not throw off, and which just kept becoming even more entangled with him as time pa.s.sed. His blood tumbled about, and his spirit energy became chaotic. It felt horrible.

At one point, when he was the slightest bit careless, Meng Chao grabbed his waist and threw him down. They rolled around on the ground, and their monster coins spilled out.

“My monster coins!”

Xie Feng’s heart ached badly. He wanted to pick the coins up, but Meng Chao kicked them away.

Then, he kicked them again and again to send them flying. They scattered through the area as if some immortal was throwing flowers down from heaven, and the students fought for them.

“Meng Chao, are you nuts?!” Xie Feng might have said this, but he felt that he himself was just one second away from going absolutely b.o.l.l.o.c.ks. “Your monster coins are in there as well! Have I p.i.s.sed you off or what?! Why did you have to make us suffer like this?!”

“Xie Feng, you’re too naive.”

Meng Chao remained expressionless. There were no spirit energy waves around him, but he released the presence of a fierce beast who had survived through hundreds of battles.

“In a real battle, aside from winning, losing, surviving, and death, everything else is just a worldly possession,” he said coldly.

“Those are just one hundred monster coins, and they made you so anxious about your gains and losses. They even made you hold back. You can clearly fight at full strength, but you can only bring out around twenty to thirty percent of it. If this were a real battle, you would have died!”

Xie Feng was shocked. He sank into deep thought.

“When it comes to a fight to the death, you should be able to throw away even your own limbs without hesitation for the sake of victory, much less those monster coins,” Meng Chao said coolly. “I think that the lecturers are wondering whether there is someone who knows the principle of discarding something to gain something else when they arranged this game.

“They want to know whether there is someone who knows what is truly important in a battle. Unfortunately, all of you Four Great Kings are short-sighted and just focus on gaining the coins. They might be disappointed.”

Xie Feng opened his mouth, but he had no way of retorting.

“You cleared sixty main meridians. On paper, you’re stronger than I am, but if we continued fighting like just now, I’d be the one who remains standing, and you’d be the one who ends on the ground five minutes later.

“Do you believe me? At that time, I’d just take away all of the monster coins from you, so what would have been the point of you being so cautious and holding back?” Meng Chao pressed on aggressively.

Xie Feng broke out in cold sweat.

A piece of information appeared at the corner of Meng Chao’s eyes.

[Normal citizen Xie Feng has received your guidance, and his fighting experience has increased substantially. Increased contribution points by 75.]

‘You’re someone worth teaching.’

Meng Chao smiled in his heart and drew closer to whisper to him. “Let them fight for those one hundred monster coins. Even if some lucky soul gets them, he’ll be holding himself back like you did. You should know how it feels. You have to make sure that your neck and head remain steady and fight fiercely despite that. It’ll quickly drain one’s energy.

“Now, it has just been five minutes since the game started. We will have a chance to turn the tables around later. The key is to preserve our strength. During the last three-five minutes, everyone will be gravely injured and exhausted. That’s the time we’ll start harvesting madly.”

Xie Feng looked at the other students.

Just as he expected, the students who had been working together to fight against him just now had begun fighting against each other.

He watched them use up their stamina and defenses just to fight for a few monster coins. Even if they were lucky enough to get dozens of them, their necks and spines turned incredibly stiff after they put the coins on their heads. They looked ridiculous.

Cold sweat broke out on Xie Feng’s skin. He thought, ‘If it weren’t for Meng Chao giving me a reminder, I’d be like those people. I’d be immersed in this and wouldn’t be able to get myself out of the situation.’

“Meng Chao, what’s the meaning of this?” Xie Feng asked tentatively. “Do you want to work with me?”

“It’s not that I want to work with you.” Meng Chao shook his head. “You’re the one who wants to work with me.”

Xie Feng was stunned.

“When a man has no urges and desires, he fears nothing. My main meridians are damaged, so I’ll only be able to cultivate slowly. I won’t be able to reach great heights, which means there’s no need for me to look for an ace teacher.

“As for you, you need to get twenty thousand monster coins. You have a hard task ahead of you.” Meng Chao smiled. “You need me more than I need you. You should be the one asking for help from me, right?”

Xie Feng’s face turned red. “Just now, I was sincerely asking you to work with me.”

“No, just now, you said that you’ll share the monster coins with me evenly after we defeat those students,” Meng Chao said calmly. “You didn’t even want to share the one hundred monster coins you had on your head. You just wanted to get coins without working. How could you call that sincere?

“Besides, the foundation of a cooperation is mutual benefits and close strength. We haven’t tested each other’s depths yet. Once we get a lot of monster coins, it’s inevitable that ulterior motives may spring up. It’s better that we understand each other’s strengths and limits first.

“Now, you should know very clearly that even if I can’t help you get two hundred monster coins, I can absolutely make sure that you won’t get even one monster coin. You’ll only be able to eat ‘free set meals’ then, right?”

Xie Feng looked dejected. “Yeah...”

“So, are you willing to work together with me and listen to my commands, then split the monster coins we get between us?” Meng Chao bared his sharp teeth.

Xie Feng refused to accept that. “I don’t mind splitting the coins between us. But why do I have to listen to your commands?”

“Because I’m a broken-star superhuman, and I don’t mind eating free set meals!” Meng Chao said. “If you don’t agree to it, I’ll stick to you like a ghost and drag you down with me. It’s your fault for being close to me.”

Xie Feng nearly fainted. He threw his head back and cried out, “Just who did I offend? I won’t be able to live like this!”

“Come now, don’t act that way,” Meng Chao comforted him. “Listen to me, just like you did during the practical test in the national college examination. I won’t let you suffer losses. Now, let’s go look for Sun Ya, Duan Lian, and Jiang Rui!”

Xie Feng was a little stunned. “Why are we going to them?”

“Naturally, we’re going to drag them into our criminal orga— I mean, we’re going to drag them into our righteous organization,” Meng Chao said matter-of-factly.

Xie Feng looked into his eyes. He could not tell whether he was joking or serious.

But then, he remembered the time they were in the wild. Meng Chao had rammed his arm into the b.l.o.o.d.y Moon Wolf King’s eye socket, which was an incredibly b.l.o.o.d.y and savage sight.

He could not help but shudder.

He subconsciously said, “Who... should we attack first?”

“Duan Lian,” Meng Chao said. “He’s the strength type, so his movement speed isn’t too fast. We can control him with just the two of us. Once we drag him into our group, the three of us can work together to catch the nimble Sun Ya and quick Jiang Rui.”
