Starting With One Million Luck Points Novel - Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Combat Talent?

Wang Ming, Li Ji, Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the other students of the training class watched Zhou Hao return to the team in a daze, their faces filled with disbelief.

“For Zhou Hao to do what he just did, he must have reached the level of a martial artist!”

“That’s right. To think that Zhou Hao, who has always been ranked at the bottom of the class, actually broke through to the martial artist level without others noticing!”

“He probably broke through after the wilderness cleanup operation last time. Xu Ling must have given Zhou Hao a lot of rare resources. With so many resources, even a pig can break through to become a martial artist!”

“But even if he’s a martial artist, it’s still impossible for them to kill the demon warriors so quickly, right? And there were even ten of them!”

“When did Zhou Hao become so powerful!”

Most of the students in the training class could not help but discuss.

On the high platform, Shen Jing retracted his shocked gaze.

Principal Zheng could not help but step forward and whisper, “Instructor Shen, could Zhou Hao be…”

Shen Jing shook his head. “No, I’ve observed carefully. This Zhou Hao’s blood essence level is only at the martial artist level. The reason why he was able to kill the demon warriors so quickly is because he has natural combat talent!”

“Combat talent?” The parents of the students, including Xu Zhenguo, shouted in surprise.

“That’s right.” Shen Jing’s expression was solemn. “All of you should have noticed that Zhou Hao doesn’t make any unnecessary movements. It actually resembles the Minute Subtlety movement technique of high-level experts. However, at the same time, he doesn’t seem to be following a movement technique at all. This shows that he has never systematically learned this before. Moreover, when he first moved, his movements were clumsy and stiff. But as he continues moving, he appears to be becoming more and more proficient…”

“There’s only one explanation for this situation. It’s his innate combat talent!”

At this point, Shen Jing sighed with emotion. “I’ve been an instructor in the Yanjing Training Camp for nearly twenty years, but there are very few students with such combat talent. I didn’t expect to find someone like him in Qu City High School!”

“Instructor Shen, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but this Zhou Hao has never displayed any combat talent before. Isn’t it too much of a coincidence for him to show it in actual combat this time?” Xu Zhenguo frowned and asked.

Shen Jing glanced at Xu Zhenguo and said indifferently, “In the previous combat competition, Zhou Hao killed two mutated beasts. Do you really think that was just luck?”

The eyes of the other parents lit up. “That’s right. I also thought it was strange back then. No matter how lucky a student is, it’s still impossible for him to rely on luck to kill so many mutated beasts. Now that I think about it, it’s very likely because of Zhou Hao’s combat talent!”

Xu Zhenguo also recalled carefully.

Shen Jing’s voice continued to ring out. “Actually, combat talent isn’t that special. It’s mainly about one’s timing. Especially in a battle with the enemy, the opportunities to strike can be quite fleeting, and most people are unable to catch such an opening. However, a person like Zhou Hao seems to be able to accurately catch it and defeat demon beasts stronger than him!”

Hearing Shen Jing say this, the scene of Xu Hao killing the Red Crown Red Python by using the python’s own tail flashed in Xu Zhenguo’s mind. He could not help but nod heavily. “Instructor Shen, thank you! I have learned a lot.”

Seeing this, Principal Zheng asked, “Instructor Shen, since natural combat talent is so rare, it seems that Zhou Hao is also a genius. With some nurturing, he might be able to become an expert!”

Instructor Shen shook his head lightly. “People with combat talent are usually extremely strong when they develop, but it requires them to be able to develop in the first place … This Zhou Hao’s foundation talent is too ordinary. Previously, he was stuck at the first level of blood essence. If not for the many resources he obtained from clearing the wilderness, he probably wouldn’t have been able to break through to become a martial artist in his entire life!”

Xu Zhenguo shook his head when he heard this, thinking to himself that he couldn’t be soft-hearted. He still had to break up his daughter and Zhou Hao.

However, at this moment, Instructor Shen suddenly changed the topic. “However, combat talent is still too rare. It’s not easy for us to find such a genius. We have to give him a chance.”

Xu Zhenguo immediately smiled bitterly. “Instructor Shen, do you mean that Zhou Hao is worth nurturing?”

“It depends on his luck,” Instructor Shen said ambiguously.

Xu Zhenguo was speechless. The combat assessment of the training class came to an end as Zhou Hao and the other students finished up.

Zhang Yi patted Zhou Hao’s shoulder excitedly. “Not bad, Hao’zi. I didn’t expect you to have also broken through to become a martial artist!”

Zhou Hao chuckled. “I just wanted to give you guys a surprise!”

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Ling.

Xu Ling’s jade-like face was also filled with an excited smile. When she heard that Zhou Hao had passed the assessment, she was even happier than when she found out that she had passed.

However, seeing Zhou Hao wink at her as if he wanted her to praise him, the smile on her face immediately disappeared. She snorted. “You didn’t surprise us, you simply shocked us. You made Zhang Yi and I worry for nothing. Remember to buy us dinner tonight to make up for it.”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he smiled and said, “Yes, yes, Zhou Hao, you have to treat us!”

“No problem. Why don’t you guys come to my house tonight? My mom cooks really well,” Zhou Hao said without thinking.

Zhang Yi hurriedly nodded. “Sure, let’s go to your house and try Auntie’s cooking!”

Xu Ling became hesitant. “If I go to your house, won’t I disturb Uncle and Auntie? Also, seeing your parents so soon is a little…”

Zhou Hao laughed. “Xu Ling, are you afraid of meeting my parents?”

Xu Ling could not stand seeing Zhou Hao being smug. She immediately put up a front and said, “Fine, I’ll go. I wasn’t afraid at all. Also, buy some wine tonight. We have to celebrate.”

“Alright!” Zhou Hao said happily.

On the high platform, Instructor Shen’s voice sounded. “The combat assessment for the focused training class has officially ended. After nearly a month of hard training, everyone has improved faster than I expected. Everyone has surpassed all the minimum requirements. You’ve all made me proud!”

“Therefore, I’ve decided that everyone will pass this combat assessment!”
