High Martial Arts: Logging 10,000 Years Into The Future - Chapter 203

Chapter 203

Lu Sheng looked at him and said, “What do you want to choose?” Lu Sheng made it clear that he wanted to hear his real thoughts.

Lin Ze hesitated and replied honestly, “My first choice is the gun. I think swords and knives are too light. Guns are the most domineering. It’s manly enough …” After saying a few words, he quickly added, “But if you choose swords and knives, I’ll choose swords and knives with you.”

Lu Sheng patted Lin Ze’s shoulder and said earnestly, “Don’t be influenced by me. The weapon you chose now is a lifelong thing. Choose whatever you like.” After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

Lin Ze was left standing there alone for a long time.

When Lu Sheng and Lin Ze arrived at the classroom, the noisy classroom immediately quieted down. Then, the originally scattered people all stood up at the same time and retreated to the two sides of the seats.

After Lu Sheng casually found a seat in the front row and sat down, these people then looked for another seat. After the entrance ceremony, Lu Sheng’s deterrence among the freshmen … It was terrifying.

For many people, Lu Sheng was no longer a shadow. He had become a nightmare. If they could hide, they would. If they couldn’t, they would try to be on their best behavior. They hoped that they wouldn’t make Lu Sheng unhappy.

The powerful freshmen who had been beaten up by Lu Sheng were the same. However, although many people were afraid, they were still holding back their anger. He thought that in the future, or perhaps many years later, he would be able to get back his face.

Fortunately, the sullen days would soon be over. Once the cold weapons major was over, they would have different classes every day. By then, they wouldn’t have to hide from Lu Sheng like this. In any case, many people had a simple and pure thought in their hearts.

That is … they definitely couldn’t choose to major in cold weapons like Lu Sheng!

***

Huo Dong sat down in a seat in the back row, feeling equally aggrieved. But more than that, it was the lingering shadow and fear of the battle at the orientation a few days ago. Lu Sheng was too terrifying.

As the last person to be knocked out by Lu Sheng, Huo Dong watched the whole battle from beginning to end. His body and mind were shaken! Especially when Lu Sheng crushed him at the end.

The despair and powerlessness of not even being able to resist made Huo Dong dream for three consecutive nights that he was trapped in a completely sealed underground water tank. The water was rising all around him. He could do nothing but be swallowed by coldness and despair bit by bit … Then he would wake up, and so on.

“Is the Martial Dragon really that terrifying?” Huo Dong asked himself in his heart.

The answer he got was. What was terrifying was not the Martial Dragon Champion, but the person who became the Martial Dragon Champion, Lu Sheng!

The level he reached as the Martial Dragon Champion was too high, far surpassing him, who was ranked fifth in the country, and definitely surpassing Huo Dong’s old rival, Nie Renjie, who was ranked third in the country, or even the one ranked second.

Huo Dong regretted coming to the Seventh Sage Martial University when he thought about how he had to study in the same school as Lu Sheng for four years. Huo Dong looked at the freshmen around him who still had injuries on their bodies.

He thought silently in his heart, ‘Presumably, everyone is thinking the same thing as me right now.’

The anger in their hearts, and the fantasy of being able to get back at Lu Sheng one day, was probably the last bit of pride and stubbornness that belonged to geniuses in their group. Lu Sheng did not know what others were thinking, but he felt that it was pretty good now. At least one thing. When he sat in the front row of the classroom, the gazes on his back were significantly less.

There were more than two hundred freshmen in the Seventh Sage Martial University this year. If there were always three hundred gazes on you every time you went to class or participated in group activities, wouldn’t you be annoyed? Lu Sheng once again found a very good reason for his previous violent behavior. He felt comforted.

Ding ling ling —

The class bell rang.

Someone walked in on time, and Lu Sheng looked up. It was a man in his fifties wearing a gray suit jacket, silver hair mixed with black, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

Lu Sheng was no stranger to him. After all, he had attended classes for a few days. The man’s surname was Xu, and he was the main lecturer for the freshmen’s exotic beast studies class. He was a professor.

In the field of exotic beast pharmacological engineering and exotic beast material engineering, he enjoyed a certain degree of fame in the entire world. He could be considered a person of virtue and prestige, and was a professor and lecturer specially hired by the Seventh Sage Martial University.

The study of exotic beasts was one of the most important subjects in the university. Up until now, Lu Sheng had been paying attention to every single class.

At the same time, he also felt that Professor Xu’s lecture was very good. The elegant Professor Xu walked to the front of the podium and put down the courseware in his hands. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and scanned the class. Then he opened his mouth and said, “I’m sure everyone already knows that we’re going to major in cold weapons today. Therefore, I hope that everyone will listen carefully in the next lesson. Because the content of this lesson has a lot to do with what kind of cold weapon you choose to learn, why you choose to learn cold weapons, and how you should walk on the road of martial arts in the future.”

Professor Xu had always been an easy-going person. He didn’t care if the students were listening or not. He only talked about himself. This was the first time he had seen such a serious attitude. It must be something important. Even Lu Sheng had to straighten his body slightly.

Seeing that everyone’s attitude had changed, Professor Xu nodded in satisfaction.

“For today’s lecture on exotic beasts, we won’t be talking about the content of the lesson. Let me ask you a question first. Why do you think humans cultivate martial arts?”

Professor Xu’s gaze swept over the new students. In the end, his gaze stopped on a male student wearing a red T-shirt.

“You answer.”

The male student in the red T-shirt didn’t hesitate. He stood up and answered, “Humans cultivate martial arts to fight against exotic beasts and protect their homes.”

“Then why do humans choose martial arts? Or rather, to put it in a way that you youngsters can understand …” Professor Xu continued, “Why do we choose martial arts when facing powerful opponents like exotic beasts? Why don’t we choose technology that already has a certain level of foundation?”

Professor Xu’s question stunned everyone. Lu Sheng’s eyes flickered. He seemed to know the purpose of Professor Xu’s question.

“Because mankind’s original firearms are useless against exotic beasts. They have very little effect.”

“Good.”
