“Is this punch enough for three thousand kilograms?”


Silence!


Dead silence!


It was even quieter than when Lin Mo first tested for full marks!


There was complete silence!


Punching a proctor at the scene of the martial arts college entrance examination?


‘What kind of operation is that?’


How arrogant was this?


How lawless was this?


But…


Lin Mo’s punch also directly proved his strength!


‘From a scientific point of view, no test instrument is 100% accurate?’


‘What about in terms of fists?’


There was no strength that a single punch could not prove!


‘If there is, then give him another punch!’


“I…” Xu Kaijie fell hard on his face. Just as he was about to curse, he saw Lin Mo’s cold gaze. He had no doubt that if he really cursed, or if he said “it’s not enough for three thousand kilograms”, Lin Mo would definitely give him a few more punches.


“Enough! Enough!” Xu Kaijie said hurriedly. “This punch is definitely three thousand kilograms! It has definitely reached the level of a two-star martial artist!”


“That’s good!” Lin Mo cursed in his heart. Then, he walked forward to help Xu Kaijie up. His face was filled with a caring smile. “Teacher Xu, wasn’t I right? Couldn’t this test achieve 100% accuracy?”


Xu Kaijie felt very aggrieved.


Previously, the reason why he had repeatedly made things difficult for Lin Mo was actually because he was jealous of Lin Mo’s talent. In his opinion, he was fulfilling his authority as an proctor. Even if Lin Mo was unhappy, he couldn’t do anything to him.


However, he did not expect Lin Mo to punch him directly!


Although beating up an proctor in the martial arts college entrance examination hall was a heinous crime, even Xu Kaijie himself understood that in the world of martial artists, when a genius’s talent was strong enough to defy the heavens, then some of his small mistakes would no longer be mistakes!


Beating up a proctor was a heinous crime?


‘That does sound true!’


But in reality, there was no point in fighting!


This was because for an examinee to be able to defeat a two-star martial artist proctor was already a testament to their talent!


If you have the ability, go and beat up the proctor during the martial arts college entrance examination! As long as you can defeat him, it will definitely be a waste of time! But if you can’t… then you will be guilty!


“Brother Mo…” Gao Haoran was completely convinced and couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up.


Lin Mo only smiled calmly. “Don’t be shocked!”


It’s just a proctor at an entrance examination. When he entered the martial arts university, Brother Mo would still beat up any teacher who was disobedient!


As long as he could win, he would face no punishment! This was the toughest rule in the martial arts world!


“Xu Kaijie, are you alright?” At this moment, Chief Ji, who was on patrol, also pretended to be concerned. Clearly, he was not going to pursue Lin Mo.


It was obvious to him that with Lin Mo’s talent, he would definitely become an existence he needed to look up to in the future! Offending such a genius? What was he doing?


“I’m fine! Thank you for your concern, Director Ji!” Xu Kaijie said bitterly.


“Since you’re fine, quickly report Lin Mo’s results!” Chief Ji ordered.


… .


Outside the martial arts testing hall in Haicheng City.


Many people were staring at the large LCD screen and paying attention to the results of the punching force test in the afternoon.


Unlike the “combat technique” assessment in the morning—the combat technique assessment required the candidates to display their strength themselves. Therefore, the results would only be released when the exam time was over and the candidates had performed sufficiently.


However, the punching force test did not need to be so troublesome! The score was determined by the strength of the cells. Therefore, during the test, the scores would be announced on the LCD screen outside and synchronized with the entire Xia country.


“Look, look! The results are starting to come out!”


“Gao Haoran actually scored 81 points too? His punching force must have exceeded 1,100 kilograms!” The class teacher, Lu Yan’an, was a little surprised to see Gao Haoran’s results. “This little fatty’s punching force was less than 1,000 kilograms half a month ago! In the past half a month, he has improved a lot! No… not even half a month! Later on, he was admitted to a top martial arts school, and he became idle every day!”


“Jiang Xue 99 points? Not bad, not bad!”


“Liu Zhonghao has 97 points! Haha! The number one genius of Second High has already been pulled away by three points by us! There’s a 90% chance that this year’s top scorer of the city’s martial arts college entrance examination will fall to our Haicheng City Martial Arts High School!”


Outside the testing hall, it was noisy, even noisier than the busiest market.


But suddenly—


With the appearance of a result, the entire lively square instantly fell silent.


“Lin Mo, 150 points!”


Everyone was dumbfounded.


150 points?


‘Isn’t that a perfect score?’


When the martial arts college entrance examination set the evaluation standard, wasn’t there no intention of letting anyone get full marks?


‘Why are there full marks?’


“Is the big screen showing that it’s broken? Why is there a 150-point one?”


“Who’s Lin Mo? I’ve never heard of him!”


“He’s from Haicheng Martial Arts High School?”


“Don’t tell me it’s that slacker?”


“Can someone tell me what happened!?”


The people in the examination hall could still think of a way to figure out the situation, but the people outside the examination hall were completely dumbfounded.


“Lin Mo?!” The class teacher, Lu Yan’an, was even more confused. “It’s someone with the same name, right? If it’s really Lin Mo from our class, there must be a problem with the big screen!”


But soon, accurate news came from the examination hall.


“After two different cell strength detection instruments and a total of three repeated tests, and the candidate has also showed his strength on the spot! The Chief of the inspection examination has confirmed: Haicheng City Martial Arts High School, Year Three Class 10, Lin Mo, cell strength 3,016 points, fist strength test 150 points! The full score has been confirmed and has been reported to the Martial Arts Administration!”


“BOOM!!!”


It exploded!


The scene exploded!


150 points?


In the history of the martial arts college entrance examination, he was the first person to score full marks in the entire Xia country!


“Haicheng City Martial Arts High School, Year Three Class 10, Lin Mo?” Teacher Lu was dumbfounded. Other than disbelief, he still couldn’t believe it. “How is this possible? How is this possible? How is this possible?”


However, before Teacher Lu could think about what was going on, a large group of reporters had already surrounded him. Dozens of microphones were already at his mouth, and there were even several microphones firing at his nostrils.


“This must be Lin Mo’s class teacher, Teacher Lu?”


“Teacher Lu, say something! How did you nurture a super genius like Lin Mo?”


“Also, Teacher Lu, since Lin Mo is so talented, why haven’t you made it public?”


Teacher Lu was even more dumbfounded by the pile of microphones.


But he suddenly remembered something Lin Mo had said to him in the morning—Lin Mo had suggested that he go home at noon to change and come back after dressing up nicely!


“Could it be…” Teacher Lu’s eyes suddenly became extremely frightened. “Could it be that Lin Mo had long expected that I would be surrounded by reporters for an interview, so he specially reminded me to change into good-looking clothes?”


Although he was dumbfounded, Teacher Lu understood that his chance to show off had arrived!


“Ahem!” Teacher Lu first cleared his throat and said without blushing, “That’s right! I personally taught Lin Mo! He’s my proudest student and also the most hardworking person in the class. He…”


Teacher Lu immediately started making up stories about how Lin Mo had risked his life to cultivate!


What about only sleeping two hours a day? What about never taking a day off in the three years of high school… In any case, I’ll exaggerate!


When Teacher Lu was making things up, he had even forgotten how Lin Mo lay there sleeping every day during the college entrance examination sprint! As he made things up, even he felt that Lin Mo seemed to be really working hard and had never been idle!


In the end, Teacher Lu concluded for the reporters, “The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitterness, and the tip of a sword comes from sharpening! Lin Mo’s results today are completely inseparable from his tireless efforts!”
