Chapter 1219: Breaking the Limit (Please Subscribe)_1

Seeing Xu Xiaoyan's eyes turn red, Xu Sheng's expression remained unchanged as he said indifferently, "Go back, Class Zero isn't for you."

No sooner had he spoken than he decisively turned and took a step, intending to leave this place...

Just then, Xu Xiaoyan clenched her teeth, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "Wait... Teacher, fifty laps... I am willing to try, hoping you will keep your promise."

Although she was well aware that she wouldn't be able to endure it with her current ability, she didn't want to give up!

Class Zero, this was the first time East Sea Academy had established its strongest class, and if she were to leave just like that, she felt she would regret it for the rest of her life!

So, a voice inside her head kept silently supporting her, telling her she was no worse than anyone else at running these fifty laps!

As Xu Sheng turned his back to her, the corners of his mouth lifted in a slight arc, and still with an impassive face, he said, "If you can run the fifty laps, I will naturally allow you to join Class Zero."

Without any hesitation, Xu Xiaoyan stepped past Xu Sheng and quickly ran toward the center of the square...

...

Meanwhile, on the square, Xie Xie and the others, panting, quickly noticed a new face!

After all, on the entire square, only the six of them from Class Zero were training!

Wei Xiaofeng asked with a puzzled face, "Eh? Who is that female student?"

Zhang Yangzi shook his head, "Don't know, never seen her before. But she's just as beautiful as Gu Yue!"

Wang Jinxi glanced at Gu Yue beside him and cautioned, "You better take back what you said, Gu Yue is right there, isn't she?"

Zhang Yangzi's face stiffened as he forced a laugh, "Heh heh! Just kidding, Gu Yue won't be mad, right?"

Gu Yue gave him a cold glance and said, "No, I will be! But she is indeed very pretty."

Right then, Xu Xiaoyan had already run up to them...

A curious Tang Wulin approached and asked, "Uh, you're not a student of Class Zero, are you? What's the reason you are running behind us?"

Xu Xiaoyan stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and managed a weak smile saying, "I'm a new transfer student, Xu Xiaoyan!"

Hearing this, Xie Xie couldn't help but express his surprise, "A transfer student? To be directly placed into Class Zero, you must come from quite a background!"

Gu Yue also nodded in agreement, "Mmm!"

To be directly placed into Class Zero, one definitely had an impressive background, at least commanding some fame and prestige in East Sea City!

Tang Wulin's face showed a sudden understanding as he extended his hand and said, "I see, welcome to Class Zero, I'm Tang Wulin!"

But Xu Xiaoyan surprisingly shook her head, "No... I'm not yet a student of Class Zero, I must first pass the test given by the teacher!"

Xie Xie's eyes lit up as he asked eagerly, "A test? What kind of test? Teacher Xu's personality being what it is, it shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

Although Xu Sheng was strict, it was only in certain aspects. For tests like these, they were generally more or less just a formality!

Xu Xiaoyan pursed her lips, "To complete fifty laps without using my Martial Soul..."

As soon as these words came out, Xie Xie, who had just spoken, felt a stinging sensation on his cheek...

Immediately after, he said in disbelief, "Run fifty laps without using the Martial Soul? How is that possible? Even when we run fifty laps, we barely manage to do so by using our Martial Souls."

Wang Jinxi frowned and said, "Teacher Xu must be joking, right? Such high-intensity load testing, not many of us in Class Zero can withstand it!"

Wei Xiaofeng waved his hand carelessly, "Hey, what's the big deal? Just run along with us, report a number, and that's it! Don't take it too seriously!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to sense someone's gaze and looked up toward the high place...

Then, he swallowed and coughed, saying, "Cough cough... I'm afraid Teacher Xu isn't joking this time! He's still in the classroom watching us now!"

Hearing this sentence, everyone looked up to the upstairs, and indeed, they spotted Xu Sheng standing by the window...

Zhang Yangzi sighed and said, "It seems like cheating is out of the question, I really can't figure out what Teacher Xu is thinking!"

Wang Jinxi also furrowed his brows and said, "If we really have to run fifty laps, Teacher Xu is essentially making sure this new student can't join class zero!"

Wei Xiaofeng whispered, "How about we quietly release our Martial Souls, I'm sure Teacher Xu will turn a blind eye."

Hearing these words spoken out of sympathy for her, Xu Xiaoyan seemed to feel humiliated by the pity of others...

Therefore, taking a deep breath with a determined expression, she said, "It's alright, don't worry about me, it's just fifty laps; I can persevere on my own!"

Tang Wulin, seeing this, reminded her, "Xu Xiaoyan, these fifty laps aren't so..."

But he was cut off before he could finish his sentence as Gu Yue pulled on his arm and shook her head...

Then she said, "Since she has already said this, let's not disturb her! We still haven't finished our fifty laps either!"

She could see that even though Xu Xiaoyan appeared very gentle and approachable, her pride was no less strong than theirs!

Now, treating her with a pitiful attitude would only make her feel looked down upon!

The others, even if they wanted to help, were helpless...

So they had no choice but to look away and once again release their Martial Souls to start running...

Only after they had run a good distance did Xu Xiaoyan pick up courage and silently cheered herself on in her heart, "Come on! It's just fifty laps, I can do it! I absolutely cannot let the teacher and the students of class zero look down on me!"

With that thought, she focused anew on her running...

However, the truth was harsh; after running nearly twenty laps, Xu Xiaoyan was already exhausted, feeling a distinct soreness in her limbs and her mind becoming somewhat muddled...

Staggering forward, her complexion was terrible as she mumbled, "So... so tired... am I... am I not going to make it?"

No! It was not yet time; how could she fall here!

She couldn't let others look down on her!!

At that moment, an inexplicable strength surged within her heart again!

With a remarkable willpower, she ran a few more laps...

However, by the time she reached the end of the twenty-third lap, she had completely lost the energy to continue walking, even breathing felt difficult...

Suddenly, her legs gave way, and her entire body leaned backward...

Just as she was about to fall to the ground, a number of comforting forces came from behind, steadying her...

It was the students of class zero who had been quietly following behind her...

Xu Xiaoyan's Beautiful Eyes were full of shock, "You... you guys..."

The students of class zero had been silently shadowing her all along!

For some reason, a strong sense of warmth welled up in her heart...

Gu Yue blinked her Beautiful Eyes and said with a light laugh, "Only twenty-seven laps to go! Let's support each other and run together! Teacher Xu didn't say it wasn't allowed!"

In this way, the students of class zero supported each other and helped Xu Xiaoyan successfully complete the fifty laps!

As for Wei Xiaofeng and the others, they also broke through their limits, reaching an astounding seventy laps!
