Chapter 37 yielded "1 Blood".
His physique, enhanced by fifty [magic loops], unleashed astonishing power.
The student didn't even have time to scream before he flew off the cliff like a rolling potato.
It crashed into piles of rocks and tree trunks along the way, and was forced to quit halfway through the journey.
At the same time, a semi-transparent panel appeared in the corner of Zhang Qingzhe's field of vision.
His ranking instantly jumped to first place, followed by a bright red number "1".
Everyone else's score is still "0".
It seems that this number represents the number of kills.
"Wow, who is this? The cards haven't even been handed out yet, and they've already gotten 'first blood'?" A student from some class exclaimed in surprise.
"That's outrageous... Did they beat someone to death with their fists and feet?"
"Zhang Qingzhe...which class is he in? I've never heard of him before."
"I don't want to run into this kind of 'serial killer'..."
Inside the testing room outside, the leaders of the [Energy Shaping School] watched the live broadcast on the big screen.
They looked at each other, unsure of what expression to wear.
Xia Qiwei couldn't help but laugh when she saw this, her eyes flashing with admiration.
"This kid has a similar vibe to me back in my student days!"
She muttered to herself, then made up her mind, "No, I absolutely cannot let other professors take it away."
Gu Xintong, standing to the side, also curved her beautiful lips into a smile, revealing a hint of smugness.
The girl next to her, seeing this, was even more angry and jealous.
As soon as Zhang Qingzhe secured first place, a flurry of data flashed before his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the two cards materialized out of thin air and gently floated down.
According to the rules, everyone will receive an initial card.
But Zhang Qingzhe had just eliminated one person, so the loser's card fell in front of him.
This design also shows that [Dream Simulation] encourages combat.
Zhang Qingzhe picked up the card and glanced at it:
One of them is a Fireball card from the [Energy Shaping School];
The other one is a [Basic Shield Card] from the [Defense School].
His brows furrowed immediately, and he thought to himself, "This is bad."
It's a little embarrassing to say—
Although Zhang Qingzhe is a student of the [Energy Shaping School], his weakest skill is precisely [Energy Shaping Magic].
This is one of the reasons why he has always wanted to switch schools of thought.
To unleash the full potential of the [Energy Shaping School], one must learn to communicate with elemental spirits.
For someone from a materialistic world like him, this kind of metaphysics was completely incomprehensible.
As for the other [Basic Shield Card], it can only be used for passive defense and lacks the ability to actively attack.
However, no matter what cards you get, there's always a corresponding way to play.
As Zhang Qingzhe left the danger zone, he kept an eye on the leaderboard on the panel.
The leaderboard only displays the top ten.
Zheng Hangfei has already scored three points and is currently ahead of him in the standings.
Zhou Keming also scored a point, tying for second place with him.
Wang Dong and the other two are not on the list at all, so their scores are still "0".
At that very moment—
Two students from other classes spotted him.
They exchanged a glance and immediately launched a joint attack.
The girl with the single ponytail who made the first move had a good appearance.
Her hair was tied in a high, jet-black ponytail, with wisps of hair falling down her fair neck.
The corners of his mouth habitually turned up, forming an alluring curve.
The uniform top was stretched a little tight by her rounded breasts, and her buttocks below her slender waist were full and perky.
She threw a fireball forward, as if to show off her alluring figure.
It seems her initial card is also [Fireball].
However, it's unclear whether it was due to nervousness or simply poor accuracy.
The fireball struck a nearby tree, exploding into a charred mess.
If possible, Zhang Qingzhe did not want to take action against unrelated parties.
He just wanted to teach the Kangping class a lesson, and then hide until the simulation ended.
But since the other party took the initiative to come to him, he didn't mind cleaning it up as well.
Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent's fireball went astray, Zhang Qingzhe suddenly accelerated forward.
[Dream Simulation] faithfully recreates all his attributes in reality, including his enhanced body and the boxing skills he honed in his previous life.
The girl with the ponytail was startled and yelled, "Protect me!"
The tall boy next to him gritted his teeth, activated his initial card, and then shoved it into his companion's hand.
The next second, a semi-transparent shield appeared in front of the girl with the ponytail, its surface covered with hexagonal patterns.
Zhang Qingzhe was stunned for a moment—
The card combinations these two received were exactly the same as his.
Judging from the tall boy's actions, he realized that activating the [Primary Shield Card] seemed to be very simple.
So, the second fireball came hurtling towards them.
Zhang Qingzhe also imitated his opponent's movements, activating the [Primary Shield Card].
The fireball slammed into the shield's surface, creating ripples that spread outwards.
At the same time, Zhang Qingzhe clearly felt that some of the magic energy in his body had been consumed.
The girl with the ponytail was clearly getting anxious.
Each time her magic essence was fully replenished, she would hurriedly launch a fireball.
The result was either that the shot was easily blocked, or it went astray and disappeared somewhere in the distance.
However, her almost manic attack rhythm made it difficult for Zhang Qingzhe to get close for a while.
The tall boy remained huddled behind the girl with the ponytail, a rather happy smile on his face.
This guy doesn't have a single card left, yet he's still acting like a sycophant.
Zhang Qingzhe felt it was necessary to bring him to his senses.
He raised his [Primary Shield], blocking the fireball bombardment while suddenly accelerating.
Like a gust of wind, he circled behind the girl with the ponytail and slipped between her and the tall boy.
Then, Zhang Qingzhe raised his fist without hesitation.
The powerful fists rained down like raindrops.
"it hurts!"
The boy immediately let out a piercing scream and frantically begged the girl with the ponytail for help, "Help me! Why is the pain level in this [Dream Simulation] so high?"
However, the girl with the ponytail had been unable to win him over for a long time, and her spirits were already teetering on the brink of defeat.
Seeing her boyfriend being pinned down and brutally beaten, she seemed to have already foreseen her own fate.
The immense mental pressure instantly shattered her fighting spirit.
Seeing her boyfriend being beaten, she suddenly turned around and ran away without looking back.
Zhang Qingzhe stared at the rapidly receding ponytail, and stood there stunned for two seconds.
Ugh!
Indeed, love is the most meaningless thing in the world!
Zhang Qingzhe sighed softly, turned to look at the tall boy huddled in a ball, and couldn't help but ask:
"Is that your girlfriend?"
"Yes..." the boy sniffled, his voice trembling with tears.
"Well, I think she doesn't care about you at all..."
"Shut up! I won't allow you to slander her!"
The boy forcefully interrupted Zhang Qingzhe, his voice choked with a stubborn sob, "She...she must have had a reason, I believe she still has feelings for me."
Zhang Qingzhe was utterly speechless. The old saying was indeed true—you can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.
Since reasoning with him didn't work, he was too lazy to waste any more words.
Zhang Qingzhe grabbed the boy and threw him off the cliff like trash.
On the panel in the corner of my field of vision, the score jumped up and became "2".
However, at this moment, the competition on the entire battlefield has become extremely fierce, and many people have already surpassed him in points.

This scene naturally sparked another round of discussion among the professors in the viewing area outside the [Dream Simulation].
"How come Professor Xia's class has such a combative student this year?"
"His movements just now were incredibly smooth and professional. He must practice a lot, right?"
Why isn't he using the [Fireball Card]? Is he planning to rely entirely on his fists to get through the game?
Card masters of the [Energy Shaping School] are indeed generally quite warlike.
But the mainstream approach remains [magical bombardment], just like the mages in classical legends.
A melee mage like Zhang Qingzhe is extremely rare, so it's no wonder the professors were surprised.
Zhou Wangshu, the dean of the "Energy Shaping School," is an elegant elder with a full head of silver hair and a mustache reminiscent of Lu Xun.
No one knows how old he is, but the oldest students at Green Island University all say that when they first met him in their youth, he looked like an old man.
