Teacher Qin shouted, "Begin!"
A young student immediately rushed out. He was tall, not particularly handsome, and his face was stiff, almost like he had a poker face, but his body constantly exuded a dangerous aura.
Even without using his Spirit or spirit power, it was still like that. His name was Yu Tianheng, and he came from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is known as the number one attack system Beast Spirit in the world.
Having come from this Sect with such a Spirit, he only allowed himself to be number one and was never willing to be second.
Wang Li's arrival indeed put a lot of pressure on him. He was currently a Spirit Elder at level thirty-two, but when he was nine, he was not a Spirit Grandmaster at level twenty-five at all.
However, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit gave him endless confidence. With the world's number one attack system Beast Spirit, as long as his spirit power increased, he would be able to sweep away all opponents.
Besides Yu Tianheng taking the lead, most of the other students did not intend to stand out. They needed to run twenty laps, and it had just begun, so what was the rush?
Wang Li also mingled with these students. He was observing them, looking at them with interest, wondering if all seven members of the future Heaven Dou Royal Team were present.
Running one lap, two laps, three laps around the campus... For these students, it was not a problem at all. Even if they did not use spirit power, they could still do it easily.
However, there was still no fundamental difference between a Spirit Master's body and a mortal's body. It was just that their strength was greater, their speed was faster, and their endurance was stronger. As they ran lap after lap, when the number of laps reached "more than ten."
These Spirit Grandmasters and Spirit Elders were also sweating profusely and panting heavily. In fact, if they used their spirit power, they could immediately change this situation. Not to mention twenty laps, they could even endure thirty laps.
If it were other teachers, they would have done so. This group of students, born noble, either descendants of aristocrats or powerful individuals, had lived in luxury since childhood. How could they have endured such hardship?
However, this was Teacher Qin's class. Teacher Qin was a legend. At only thirty years old, he had broken through to a high-level Spirit King and would soon break through to a Spirit Emperor, if nothing unexpected happened. This was what they envied and longed for, which was why they were willing to endure such hardship.
As for cheating and secretly using spirit power, they did not have the guts, because Teacher Qin was notoriously strict. If he said he would eliminate you, he would really eliminate you. This was completely different from other teachers.
Among all the students present, perhaps only Wang Li remained calm and composed, moving at a steady pace, neither fast nor slow.
Wang Li did not use Instant Step, because Instant Step also required spirit power to use, but even with ordinary running, his talent was still functioning normally.
His recovery ability, far surpassing that of ordinary people, kept his body functions at their peak at all times.
Soon, his relaxed demeanor was noticed by a purple-haired, green-eyed girl. As a Spirit Elder at level thirty-one, the girl's condition was much better than that of the Spirit Grandmasters at the moment.
However, her fair forehead was already sweating, and her breathing was no longer stable, alternating between long and short breaths, and her panting intensified.
She was in such a state, yet Wang Li was still calm and composed. She felt very unconvinced and also very curious. Coupled with his nine-year-old, twenty-five-level spirit power, it shocked everyone, including her.
The girl sped up to catch up with Wang Li, then her beautiful eyes flickered, and she said with a charming smile:
"Little junior brother, your stamina is quite good. You've run fourteen laps and are still so relaxed!"
In fact, Wang Li had long noticed the girl. She had neat purple short hair and a pair of green eyes. Her face, though not stunning, exuded a unique sense of Charm. Such obvious features made it hard not to recognize her.
At this moment, the girl took the initiative to approach him. Wang Li smiled slightly and then said:
"Senior sister, my talent is not good, so in order to cultivate better, I have always exercised my physical fitness."
"Also, your breathing is out of rhythm. This will increase your physical exertion. If you want to conserve energy, you can follow my breathing rhythm."
"Three steps inhale..."
"Three steps exhale..."
"This is for slow running. Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth. This ensures that you take in more outside air while expelling as much air from your body as possible. Don't restrict your abdomen; let it also contribute to your breathing."
Originally, when the girl heard Wang Li say that his talent was not good, she was speechless. Nine years old, twenty-five-level spirit power, and he called that bad talent? But then she saw Wang Li sincerely teaching her how to breathe, and she laughed again, shaking with laughter.
Seeing this, Wang Li restrained his smile, put on a serious face, and said:
"Senior sister, why are you laughing?"
The girl covered her mouth and laughed incessantly. After a long while, she finally spoke:
"I'm laughing because, junior brother, you're quite a good person!"
Wang Li shook his head as if very helpless:
"But senior sister, your physical exertion will be even greater like this, and it will be very difficult to finish the remaining laps."
The girl looked at Wang Li, who was only nine years old but acting like an adult, and she cooperated, frowning and asking:
"Then what should I do?"
Wang Li showed a resolute expression, as if he had made some major decision. He said in a deep voice:
"It seems I'm the only one who can continue running with senior sister!"
After speaking, Wang Li quickened his pace, overtook the girl, and ran in front of her.
The girl followed behind Wang Li and actually felt a lot less pressure. Her steps became lighter, and her eyes filled with surprise as she looked at Wang Li's back. She thought to herself:
"This junior brother is unexpectedly reliable!"
Her name was Dugu Yan. Because of her Bi Lin Snake Spirit and terrifying poison attribute, from childhood to adulthood, others, regardless of gender, avoided her and dared not get too close.
But today, she originally wanted to tease Wang Li, but she found that Wang Li was even more interesting than she had imagined.
Following behind Wang Li, Dugu Yan chuckled:
"Junior brother, your name is Wang Li, right? Don't call me senior sister anymore. My name is Dugu Yan. My grandpa calls me Yan Yan or Yan'er."
Wang Li thought, 'Sure enough,' and then tried to push his luck:
"Yan Yan..."
Hearing this, Dugu Yan only felt that her authority as a senior sister had been ignored. She feigned anger and said:
"Add 'Jie'!"
Wang Li could only reluctantly change his address:
"Yan Yan Jie."
Dugu Yan's anger turned to joy, or perhaps she was never angry in the first place. She smiled broadly and said:
"That's right. From now on, Yan Yan Jie will cover for you. If anyone bullies you, just tell me!"
Wang Li's eyes were full of unconcealable laughter, though no one could see it. He said:
"Then thank you, Yan Yan Jie."
...
Twenty laps. Some finished, some didn't. Those who finished lay down as soon as they returned, panting and sweating profusely.
Teacher Qin picked them up one by one, telling them to move around and not lie down or sit down, until Wang Li and Dugu Yan ran back.
Wang Li was still calm and composed. Although Dugu Yan was very tired, she also felt much more relaxed than usual.
Teacher Qin was very puzzled, so he frowned and sternly shouted:
"Wang Li, run five more laps!"
Wang Li was a little surprised to hear this, but he did not refuse:
"Okay, Teacher!"
After speaking, Wang Li ran out again.
Now it was Teacher Qin's turn to be surprised. He didn't expect Wang Li to not even ask, although he might not have answered even if he had asked. But not asking at all was too calm.
However, at this moment, Dugu Yan questioned:
"Teacher Qin, Wang Li has already run twenty laps. Why does he still need to run?"
Teacher Qin explained with a cold face:
"Didn't you notice? Wang Li hasn't reached his limit. If physical training doesn't push his stamina to the limit, then this training is meaningless!"
Dugu Yan still wanted to argue, but seeing that Wang Li had already run far away, she could only stamp her foot in anger and curse:
"This idiot..."
