Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality-Chapter 36 Rejection, Principal’s List!

Bullying the weak while fearing the strong is perhaps the truest reflection of most people’s nature.

Yang Meng lost to Mu Bing time and again, and to secure his future, he had no choice but to become Zhao Jiadi’s lackey.

He couldn’t afford to offend either of these two, but the anger in his heart... needed an outlet.

In the end, Lu Sheng became Yang Meng’s target.

Clearly, Lu Sheng did nothing wrong; he just chose to surrender when he knew he couldn’t win and refused when Yang Meng asked him to switch paths.

Yet such trivial matters, coupled with Yang Meng’s psychological distortion, gradually turned into resentment towards Lu Sheng.

"Outrageous!"

However, before Lu Sheng could speak, Gao Feng on the podium shouted loudly.

"This is a classroom! It’s not a place for Yang Meng to act violently!"

"The midterm exams are over. What exactly do you want, Yang Meng?" ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Hearing Gao Feng’s words, Yang Meng’s face turned even uglier. His mechanical hands clenched tightly, perhaps due to the boundless anger in his heart. The mechanical hands trembled slightly, with a faint red light flickering inside them.

"Lu Sheng..."

Yang Meng gritted his teeth and harbored even stronger resentment towards Lu Sheng.

Clearly, Gao Feng used to speak to him gently, but now he was scolding him.

People with a distorted mindset never consider whether others’ attitudes towards them are due to their own actions. They always blame others.

Right now, Yang Meng was thinking that all of this was because of Lu Sheng!

Even though he was filled with resentment towards Lu Sheng, Yang Meng didn’t have the courage to bring up the challenge in front of Gao Feng.

Because of this, the students in the Martial Artist camp around him looked at Yang Meng with increasing disdain, and even the people in the Mechanical Transformer camp regarded Yang Meng with more contempt.

"Hehe, Lu Sheng, are you interested in switching to the path of Mechanical Transformer? I can sponsor you just like I did for Yang Meng, how about that?"

At this point, a soft laugh echoed in the classroom.

From his seat, Zhao Jiadi supported his chin with one hand, smiling mischievously at Lu Sheng.

Upon hearing this, the Martial Artist camp students’ expressions changed, and they quickly looked at Lu Sheng. They had barely gained a figure like Lu Sheng in their camp.

If he switched to the Mechanical Transformer camp like Yang Meng, wouldn’t they become a laughingstock?

Even Gao Feng on the podium felt his heart skip a beat, looking at Lu Sheng with intense worry.

Yang Meng’s shadow once again loomed over Gao Feng’s heart at this moment.

But quickly, Lu Sheng smiled faintly at Zhao Jiadi: "Thank you for your offer, Zhao Gongzi, but... I still prefer the ways of the Martial Artist."

On hearing this, the Martial Artist students and Gao Feng all breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Jiadi’s smile remained unchanged. He shrugged and said, still smiling, "Alright then, I won’t force you. But if you ever change your mind, you can come find me."

That said, Zhao Jiadi withdrew his gaze.

Lu Sheng looked deeply at Zhao Jiadi, then inwardly scoffed.

With his proficiency in Basic Mechanical Prosthetic Maintenance at level five, Lu Sheng naturally saw that Yang Meng’s mechanical prosthetics were extremely unstable; maybe nothing would go wrong in a virtual arena, but...

Earlier, when Yang Meng’s mood fluctuated greatly, Lu Sheng could feel the energy within the mechanical prosthetic becoming erratic.

And these mechanical prosthetics were all provided by Zhao Jiadi’s family’s company. To be blunt, Yang Meng was just used as a test subject.

If he agreed, he’d end up just like Yang Meng.

Although Yang Meng seemed fine at present, if the issues with the mechanical prosthetics weren’t resolved, there would definitely be major problems in the future.

However, Lu Sheng couldn’t be bothered to point all this out.

As this wave of tension dissipated, the midterm exams came to an end. The sorting process was up to the three mentoring teachers, and the other students were free to leave.

Leaving the multifunctional hall, after greeting some excited Martial Artist students, Lu Sheng walked on the road with a somewhat helpless expression.

"I didn’t expect to end up being resented by Yang Meng. I just wanted to focus on mastering my skills! This situation is really troublesome..."

Lu Sheng shook his head. Despite some helplessness, he didn’t take Yang Meng’s resentment to heart.

With the system panel, he knew he would surpass Yang Meng sooner or later. Yang Meng... was just a guy whose potential had run dry.

Not worth paying attention to.

With that thought, Lu Sheng headed towards the maintenance workshop. Since the mentoring teachers were discussing the distribution of resources, Gao Feng wouldn’t be available to guide his practice today.

...

At the same time, in an office at Yucai High School, Jiang He sat in a chair, his gaze fixed on the midterm exam rankings for the Elite Class.

In Jiang He’s hand, he held a list with the names of Mu Bing and Zhao Jiadi on it, with only one spot remaining.

It was this last spot that made Jiang He hesitate.

His finger hovered over the midterm rankings.

Yang Meng, originally ranked third, was directly ignored by Jiang He. As the principal of Yucai High School and a powerful Transcendent, he had a keen eye.

A person like Yang Meng, who abandoned his own advantages to switch to the path of Mechanical Transformer, naturally couldn’t catch Jiang He’s interest.

In the end, Jiang He’s gaze fell to the position below Yang Meng.

"Lu Sheng? A Martial Artist..."

Jiang He looked at Lu Sheng’s name, pondering for a long while before opening his personal terminal and checking Lu Sheng’s profile.

"70 Qi Blood, still a bit lacking, but he hasn’t reached his limit yet since he hasn’t broken through..."

"This kid’s combat experience and instincts are pretty good too..."

Jiang He mumbled, deep in thought.

Moments later, a determined look flashed across Jiang He’s face.

"Alright, this kid it is!"

Jiang He said, finally picking up the pen and writing Lu Sheng’s name in the final spot on the list.

Looking at the list before him, Jiang He recorded it into the computer, then sent it to the three mentoring teachers of the Elite Class.

Moments later, the three teachers discussing the distribution of resources in the classroom received Jiang He’s message simultaneously.

"Looks like the principal has made his decision. Shall we take a look together?"

The Cultivator System mentor, Yang Fan, said to Gao Feng and the other teacher with a smile.
