Chapter 33: Ripple Force Princess

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I heard that Zuo Haoran is a member of Falcon Gun Club, and he does target practice over there every weekend. The number of bullets he fires in a year is more than ten times the number of bullets a normal student fires. Many of the students in the rocket classes can’t even compare to him. Meng Chao, you were too reckless this time.”

The class princess, Gu Fang had seen through Zuo Haoran’s true character, and she told Meng Chao the news she had found out after a lot of effort on her part.

“Then what should we do? Meng Chao’s gun technique is dozens of marks lower than Zuo Haoran’s. No matter how fast he runs and how hard he hits, he won’t be able to close the gap, right?”

“Meng Chao, you’re too reckless. But I have to say, I wanted to hit Zuo Haoran when I heard all that trash talk just now. It’s only normal for you to be reckless.”

“Forget it. Just go and compete against him at ease. Even if you lose, your spirit is still commendable.”

“That’s right. Meng Chao, even if you lose to Zuo Haoran, it won’t be embarrassing. I have to say that as long as there is only a fifty mark difference between you, you can be considered to have won!”

“Among the three categories, as long as you win in one against Zuo Haoran, be it strength, speed, or gun technique, you could be considered to have won. We have high hopes for you.”

Meng Chao’s classmates motivated him, and it made him feel warmth in his heart.

He thought about it and felt that he should not pretend to be someone he was not. He had to be sincere as well.

“Thanks, everyone, but my gun technique is actually pretty good.”

“Heh. How good are you.”

His classmates smiled politely to let him preserve some dignity.

Meng Chao recalled all the ways to disassemble guns in his head, along with the essence of shooting. He also remembered the scenes where he had drawn his gun, fired, thrown his gun, and obtained headshots. He had even performed blind shooting before. There was also his experience in shooting and killing all sorts of monsters in his previous life.

“If I have to describe myself, I should say that it’s... perfect,” Meng Chao said in a reserved manner.

The dispute in the testing room filled everyone with excitement for an entire day.

Meng Chao did not keep his knowledge to himself during the self-study period in the afternoon and taught his classmates the Demonically Modified Ripple Force.

But the results were not as he wished. Aside from the homeroom teacher, the other students could not understand the profound secrets.

But that was normal. The comprehension of normal citizens was limited. It was impossible for them to become excellent right after they received a secret skill.

The day before, Meng Chao had to work his mind a lot to help Chu Feixiong adjust his acupressure points. That was even more tiring than cultivating on his own.

So he was not interested in adjusting all his classmates’ acupressure points.

Besides, Ripple Force was a technique that imitated endless waves. The difficulty of learning it was even higher than Reckless Bull Technique. Even if he taught it hands on, he could not teach it by poking at acupressure points. He had to press his hands against his classmates’ skins so that he could feel the movement of their muscles. It was like how a blind person would massage another person. He had to touch all the muscles on them before he could slowly adjust the spots which were wrongly used to execute force.

There was a problem there.

Even if the boys were willing to let Meng Chao touch them all over to adjust their muscles, Meng Chao did not want to.

He did not even want to touch Chu Feixiong.

... and the boys did not really want him to touch them either.

As for the girls, Meng Chao was very willing to help them, but they seemed to think that he had ulterior motives, and they avoided him like the plague.

Even the class princess, Gu Fang, disappointed Meng Chao by refusing his good will.

“They’re all regarding the generosity of the noble me with petty hearts! I’m trying to contribute to the whole class. Do you actually think that I want to touch you?” Meng Chao was furious.

After the self-study period, he only obtained seventy-six contribution points. Twelve of those points came from the homeroom teacher, while each of his classmates only gave him around one to two points.

Meng Chao made some calculations. He needed a little over one thousand points to use an Initial Stage Healing Skill. If he wanted to cure all of his internal injuries, he needed three more treatments, which meant he needed three thousand five hundred points.

If he wanted to push Reckless Bull Technique and Ripple Force from Specialist Level to Master Level, he needed more than one thousand points for each one. There was not even a need for him to mention the points needed for Basic Gun Technique to move from Perfect Level to Ultimate Level.

He also needed to upgrade his Basic Harvesting Skill and activate Dragon Snake Force. With all that added together, he needed ten thousand points.

But he had not even added One Hundred Saber Technique and Thunder Rapier into the mix, and they were both cold weapon techniques that were compulsory subjects in high school.

If he accumulated around one hundred contribution points every day, he would only get around seven hundred or eight hundred points in a week, so he could not even get one Initial Stage Healing Skill.

‘I have to open a new channel to get points so that I can have a chance to score well in the national college examination,’ Meng Chao thought in his heart.

After school ended, he went to his best friend. “Feixiong, look for Demon Yan later to show Super Reckless Bull Force.’

Chu Feixiong was shocked. “Why? Demon Yan doesn’t just teach us. If he teaches Super Reckless Bull Force, we’re going to end up exposing the technique.”

“There are two benefits to it. First, you want to get into military school, right? Demon Yan was once a ruthless instructor there. Even though he retired from the force, he still has thousands of connections in the army. If you talk about Super Reckless Bull Force with him, he will definitely view you in a different light, and you’ll have an easier time in the military.”

“But I can’t use your—” Chu Feixiong became worked up.

Meng Chao waved his hand to interrupt him. “Don’t get worked up. Listen to me. There’s something even more important. I want to challenge the class rep, but I have to be on guard against his uncle. Old Wang is good, but he’s not strong enough to go up against the teaching director. In this school, aside from the principal, only Demon Yan can possibly stand up against the teaching director.”

In truth, there were three reasons.

Ever since Meng Chao saw an “elite monster”, he had been thinking about who fit into the criteria of elite citizens.

And in Ninth High School, aside from the principal, only Demon Yan had the aura of an “elite monster”.

“It can’t be that bad, right? Even if you defeat the class rep, you will do it according to the rules. The teaching director will have no reason to target you.” Chu Feixiong still did not quite understand what was going on.

“What if I’m not just thinking about defeating him, but crippling him?” A fierce light shone in Meng Chao’s eyes.

In his previous life, Zuo Haoran caused him to fail his national college examination, and later on, he betrayed Dragon City and harmed countless people.

There was no way Meng Chao would let him have a good life after that.

Chu Feixiong was shocked. “What did you say?”

“It’s nothing. Anyway, just listen to me, and you won’t go wrong. Besides, we won’t be able to hide this for long. We’ll be taking the test next week, and our speed as well as our maximum punching strength will have increased by a lot. Do you think others are stupid and won’t get to the bottom of things?”

Meng Chao slapped the huge, white bear’s shoulder. “So, instead of waiting for others to come sneakily to steal our technique, why don’t we be more straightforward and leave a good impression on Demon Yan and the principal? I can also get some benefits from this. Besides, I’ve learned a lot of secret techniques from the life science forum in the deep web. I have plenty of trump cards.”

It was only then that Chu Feixiong relaxed. “Then come with me to Demon Yan. Let’s get into military school together.”

Meng Chao shook his head. “Military school is too strict. Hunting on my own is more suited to me. As for Demonically Modified Ripple Force, I’ll have to look for someone powerful to exchange tips with them as well...

“Who should I look for? Demon Yan is someone who prefers fierce and tough fighting styles. He’ll be perfect to teach you. I want to look for someone who is better at Ripple Force.”

Chu Feixiong thought about it. “Then, why don’t you look for Ripple Force Princess? She’s best at teaching and guiding youths in Ripple Force. She’s definitely better than Mr. Wang and Demon Yan in this.”

“Ripple Force Princess?” Meng Chao’s eyes lit up.

Ripple Force Princess Yan Feirou was a sophomore in Dragon City University, the vice president of Dragon City Martial Arts Research Center, and a two star superhuman.

Her grandfather, Yan Hengbo, was the person in charge of the research team who created Ripple Force. Even though he was injured severely during an intense fight many years ago and could no longer regain his strength, his sharp observation skills and astonishing wisdom regarding martial arts made him a grandmaster.

Yan Feirou’s father, Yan Zhennan, had developed Yan Family’s Ripple Force further during a real fight, and he was a very famous monster hunter. He often went into the depths of the fog, and he was even more brutal than monsters.

Yan Feirou wanted to promote her family’s martial arts, and she organized a public class on the largest broadcasting channel in Dragon City: Heavenly Eye Broadcast. Very soon, with her youthful and beautiful appearance as well as her perfected Ripple Force, she attracted countless fans.

Every time she organized a class, the number of views, likes, comments, in-video comments, viewer’s payment and rewards would be among the top of the entire platform.

Hence, she was promoted as Ripple Force Princess by the broadcasting platform and social media. She was the Goddess in multiple hot-blooded youths’ hearts.

After Meng Chao was injured in the second year of high school, he used Ripple Force to recuperate, and he often watched Ripple Force Princess’ public classes.

When Chu Feixiong reminded him of this, his head began to hurt slightly. Some of the memory fragments rose from the depths of his mind.

Yan Feirou’s achievements in the end seemed to have surpassed those of her father and her grandfather, and she became someone fully deserving of the title Ripple Force Queen. She was an existence that Meng Chao could only look up to, since she was a third-class fighter.

The future version of the Ripple Force Meng Chao had activated seemed to be the refined version Yan Feirou created after she went through multiple bloody fights and absorbed all the advantages from the multiple versions of Ripple Force.

Of course, right now, Yan Feirou was just a delicate sophomore in university. She was known as a princess because those who loved creating chaos decided to lavish praise on her.

Her Ripple Force was still in its budding stage, and she was in urgent need of a kind soul providing her guidance.

Meng Chao was excited.

Suddenly, he found something odd about the situation. “Wait, Feixiong. I thought you have been focusing on Reckless Bull Force and thinking about using only fierce and tough fighting styles. You mentioned before that only sissies practice Ripple Force. Why are you so familiar with Ripple Force Princess?”

Chu Feixiong coughed.

“You know.” The fatty who weighed more than one hundred kilograms winked at him.

Meng Chao instantly understood.

While on his way back, Meng Chao went to the market to buy two items. One of them was a Demonic Halberd pork, and the other was the most tender piece of tofu he could find.

He would be using this to guide Ripple Force Princess later online.

There was no one in the house. His father and his friends had gone to resign from Prosperous. His mother went to the community clinic to have her legs massaged, while his sister’s school organized a tour to a thermal power plant so that they could understand the concept behind using Fire Qilins and other fire-type monsters to generate electricity.

Meng Chao turned on the broadcasting platform. Coincidentally, a link to Ripple Force Princess Yan Feirou’s public class was posted on the homepage. She was conducting a class.

The thumbnail was of a girl with her cheeks flushed. She wore yoga clothes and was incredibly lively.

The broadcasting platform even used special effects to put a small princess crown on her hair.

Her Ripple Force was a technique passed down through generations, and she had long since perfected it. She also gave off a healthy and pretty image, so it was no wonder why there were thirty thousand people from Dragon City watching her live when she conducted her public class.
