Chapter 101 Recruitment for the Genius Training Camp
Chen Lie thought for a moment and said, "The path of martial arts is a thorny and adversity-filled road. On this path, temporary success or failure means nothing."
He who laughs last laughs best.
"Okay, thank you, Chen Lie, for sharing this message with countless people of our age in Dongchuan Province."
The beautiful reporter gestured for the staff to remove the camera.
A short while later, the school leaders walked up the steps to the podium.
The principal was at the front and saw Chen Lie. He immediately said, "Chen Lie, congratulations on winning first place in the campus martial arts competition."
You will receive the first-place reward: twenty catties of second-tier exotic beast meat, one rare martial arts treasure, and ten million star coins as a martial arts incentive.
"Thank you, Principal."
"No need to thank me. The school is a place to cultivate martial arts geniuses. You are more outstanding than other students and deserve to receive more resources."
At this moment, the Dean of Students, who was behind the principal, stepped forward and said, "Chen Lie, I just made an exception and promised you three times the reward for being on the list of the top 100 elite students. I didn't expect you to give me such a surprise so soon."
Without further ado, I hope you will continue your efforts and maintain this excellent performance in the upcoming talent training camp, bringing glory to the school.

Chen Lie nodded and looked behind him.
The principal continued, "Your first-place reward—ten million Star Yuan martial arts incentive funds and twenty catties of second-tier exotic beast meat—has been prepared. As for martial arts treasures, the school can procure several kinds. You can choose the ones you need, and the school will distribute them to you in a few days."
The seven or eight school leaders present all extended their warm regards to Chen Lie, and then the school broadcast an announcement.
"Please invite the top twenty students in this martial arts competition to come to this side of the stage."
Shortly after the broadcast ended, the top twenty finishers from the martial arts competition came to the stage.
Reporters from Dongchuan Provincial Television also conducted interviews in turn. Unlike Chen Lie, these people did not give enthusiastic answers whenever they were asked questions by reporters.
After the reporter finished asking his questions, he led the TV crew away.
The school leaders then stepped forward and said, "Hello, students."
You are all the top martial arts geniuses in our school. Perhaps some of you didn't achieve the rankings you hoped for.
But when I want to say it.
The path of martial arts is very long, so long that one may never see the end even in a lifetime.
Therefore, if you encounter setbacks on your martial arts journey, don't get angry. You've only fallen behind by a small step, and there's plenty of time to catch up later.
Students who have achieved a relatively good level should not be complacent, but should maintain a humble attitude to face the rest of their martial arts journey.
"Alright, I won't go into more detail here. Everyone is surely aware of the rewards for ranking in the martial arts competition."
Students who rank in the top twenty will receive ten catties of second-tier exotic beast meat, a two-hundred-year-old spiritual medicine, and one million star yuan in martial arts incentive funds.
The students who rank in the top ten will be rewarded with ten catties of second-tier exotic beast meat, two kinds of two-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs, and five million star yuan in martial arts incentive funds.
The remaining rewards can be claimed at any time. Now I will lead you to the school's resource vault to select medicinal herbs. Let's go!
After the school leaders finished speaking, they led the group to the school's resource center.
Upon arriving at the resource repository, the school leaders specifically instructed Chen Lie: "Martial arts treasures are unique and come in many varieties, including those related to stabilizing internal energy..."
"There are treatments for improving blood circulation and energy. After you've chosen yours, let me know, and I'll have to get them from the provincial government."
"Okay!" Chen Lie nodded.
After Chen Lie finished speaking, he went to the list of martial arts treasures and began to select one.
In fact, martial arts treasures are basically spiritual medicines with special effects. Right now, Chen's most urgent need is to increase his Qi and blood value, so what he needs is naturally a martial arts treasure that can increase Qi and blood value.
However, Chen Lie did not find any martial arts treasures that could enhance qi and blood among the martial arts treasures that the school could obtain.
"Senior, are you selecting rare martial arts treasures?"
At this moment, Yang Xixi came to Chen Lie's side.
Chen Lie hummed in agreement.
"You are the first place winner and can choose a rare martial arts treasure, while I, one of the top twenty, can only choose a two-hundred-year-old spiritual herb."
Chen Lie knew: "If a martial arts treasure is not of a suitable type, it is not a spiritual herb of sufficient age."
"Aren't there any martial arts treasures here that you need, senior?" Yang Xixi couldn't help but ask.
Chen Lie nodded.
"I saw a spiritual medicine that is nearly 500 years old over there. Senior, you are the champion of the martial arts competition. You should be able to ask the school to replace the martial arts treasure with a spiritual medicine that is 500 years old."
"Anyway, the two are about the same value, so the school shouldn't refuse," Yang Xixi said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Lie immediately said, "What kind of five-hundred-year-old spiritual herb is it? Take me to see it!"
"Okay, senior, please follow me."
As she spoke, Yang Xixi led Chen Lie on a tour of the resource warehouse, arriving at the place where five-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs were stored.
"Senior, this is it!" Yang Xixi pointed to it for Chen Lie.
Chen Lie looked up and, sure enough, saw a 478-year-old blood-shouwu (Polygonum multiflorum).
The medicinal herb described below has the following effect: enhancing qi and blood.
"A spiritual herb that is over four hundred years old is not a rare treasure in martial arts, but it surpasses even the rarest treasures in martial arts."
"Since you want this spiritual herb, you can discuss it with the school. I think they will agree," Yang Xixi said.
At this moment, Lu Qingchan passed by and overheard Yang Xixi's words to Chen Lie. She raised an eyebrow and approached Yang Xixi, asking, "Yang, why do you keep calling Chen Lie 'senior'?"
Yang Xixi was taken aback and said, "In martial arts, those who have mastered the art come first. Is it inappropriate for me to address a senior as a senior?"
Lu Qingchan said, "It's true that those who are skilled in martial arts come first, but Chen Lie's strength shouldn't be enough for you to call him a senior, right?"
We were all classmates from the same school, yet I felt like I was a generation below them.
"Lu, you're so strange. What I call you is none of your business," Yang Xixi said.
Her father calls Chen Lie "little brother," so she can't very well call him "brother" too, can she?
Lu Qingchan was secretly annoyed, her clear eyes fixed on Chen Lie: "Chen Lie, Uncle Chen and Aunt Feng probably don't know that you've been hiding your strength, right?"
"What difference does it make whether I know or not?" Chen Lie retorted.
"Hmph, Uncle Chen and Aunt Feng have been racking their brains over someone's grades, while that person, who clearly has excellent grades, has been hiding it from their parents. They're so heartless."
Faced with Lu Qingchan's sarcastic remarks, Chen Lie didn't bother arguing with her.
His abilities improved dramatically in just a few days. He had confessed to his parents countless times, but he quickly rose to a new level.
"Lu, so you know the senior?" Yang Xixi finally realized.
"Yes, we know each other," Lu Qingchan said coldly.
Yang Xixi felt very strange, but she didn't ask any more questions.
At that moment, the school leader's voice suddenly came over: "Students, have you all made your choices?"
Students who have chosen their elixirs, come here to fill out the form, and I'll arrange for staff to distribute your rewards.
Upon hearing this sound, Chen Lie immediately walked towards the entrance of the resource repository.
The school leaders, clearly favoring Chen Lie, the champion of the martial arts competition, immediately asked upon seeing him, "Chen Lie, how did your selection of martial arts treasures go?"
Chen Lie asked, "Teacher, can I exchange the martial arts treasures I received as a reward for spiritual herbs?"
"Trading martial arts treasures for elixirs?" The school leaders found it very strange.
"Yes, I want to replace the martial arts treasure with a 478-year-old blood-shouwu (Polygonum multiflorum)," Chen Lie said.
"That should be possible, but I need to inform the principal and the dean of students first."
Are you sure you want to replace the martial arts treasure with that 400-year-old Blood Polygonum multiflorum?
Let me remind you, rare treasures in martial arts are things you can only encounter by chance, not something you can seek out.
"I'm sure!" Chen Lie nodded.
"Okay, I'll register you here. You can wait in the principal's office first."
Chen Lie nodded, then walked out of the school's resource center and headed to the principal's office.
Not long after Chen Lie arrived at the principal's office, other students who ranked in the top twenty in the martial arts competition arrived one after another.
Zhou Tianhong was the second person to arrive at the principal's office after Chen Lie.
His health points exceeded 300, far ahead of Lu Qingchan in second place. He thought that winning the martial arts competition was a sure thing, but unexpectedly, Chen Lie emerged.
Most importantly, in the three years he spent at the same school, he had never even heard of Chen Lie's name.
He could tell that Chen Lie's blood energy was lower than his, but definitely not like a martial arts student with less than 200 calories.
Faced with Chen Lie's superb martial arts skills, Zhou Tianhong felt that even if he fought Chen Lie again, he might not be able to defeat him.
Who can guarantee that he hasn't left any backup plans?
After the top twenty students from the martial arts competition finished their term, the principal also came here.
"Students, I have some news to announce here."
The provincial governor's talent training camp will soon begin recruiting.
This is the recruitment for the second batch of students in this year's genius training camp. The standards are a bit higher than the first batch. The requirements are that the applicant must be under 18 years old, have a blood energy value of over 200 calories, and maintain a strength value of more than three times their blood energy. Martial arts students are eligible to be selected.
Nearly half of our students have already met the recruitment standards for the genius training camp.
The talent training camp will begin accepting applications on December 24th and end on February 10th of the following year.
There are still more than two months left, so students whose Qi and blood values have not yet reached the standard should not be anxious, because you have two months to improve your Qi and blood values.
I believe that those of you standing here have a blood energy level that is close to 200, even if it is not. It shouldn't be too difficult for you to raise your blood energy level to 200 within two months.
However, you should be careful to ensure that while increasing your blood and qi values, you also need to ensure that your strength values are more than three times higher.
The recruitment standards for the Genius Training Camp may be somewhat lenient regarding health points if one's strength is exceptionally high. However, the requirements for strength are extremely strict. Even if your health reaches over 200 units, you will not be recruited into the Genius Training Camp if your strength does not meet the standard.
Therefore, students must improve their Qi and Blood levels step by step and must not try to cut corners or be lazy, lest they lose more than they gain.
