Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 1155: True Proof (31)

Wang Chen’s hacking skills started improving significantly only after he had purchased a large amount of B-Coin.

On one hand, it was out of the need to protect his personal safety and privacy; on the other hand, it was his interest in computer technology—after all, having many skills does not burden one, and learning more things is definitely the right choice.

Although his self-study time was not long, his learning efficiency could only be described as "terrifying", with high-definition image-like super memory combined with a strong mind, Wang Chen’s speed of mastering any knowledge far surpassed that of ordinary people.

Every night, he would take some time to roam and dive deep into the boundless cyberworld.

Greatly expanding his knowledge and experiences, and also honing his skills.

Invading the riddled with vulnerabilities internal network of No.5 Middle School was a piece of cake, not at all worth boasting about!

What Wang Chen didn’t expect was that, while he was eating alone in the school cafeteria at noon, Zhang Jinping from the second year, class (5) came over and sat down beside him with great aplomb.

"You’re quite lucky."

The rich second-generation tilted his head and sneered: "You actually managed to avoid it, but rest assured, I guarantee I’ll make you enjoy this, just you wait and see!"

With that, he reached out and patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, with considerable force.

"Damn!"

The next moment, Zhang Jinping’s hand retracted like lightning, feeling as if his palm had been struck by electricity.

He walked away cursing under his breath.

As the target of the threat, Wang Chen’s heart was undisturbed; he even felt a bit like laughing.

He was thinking about how best to retaliate, willing to invade the school server to gather information, and the target unexpectedly came to him looking for trouble, which saved him a lot of hassle.

Wang Chen quickly put this incident behind him and stopped paying attention to Zhang Jinping.

It was unnecessary.

On October 25th, No.5 Middle School’s autumn sports meeting was held on campus as scheduled.

In the morning, Wang Chen participated in the 100 meters preliminary race for the second-year group.

As he stood at the starting line of the track, crouched down ready to start the race, he couldn’t help but remember his previous life. freewёbnoνel.com

In his previous life, when Wang Chen attended No.5 Middle School as a high school student, he also participated in the sports meeting every year, but he had never achieved a top-three finish, always scratching his head as he watched others’ backs.

He never tasted the joy of victory, and the cheers and applause of his classmates.

But today...

Bang!

When the starting gun fired, Wang Chen burst forward like an arrow released from a bow.

"Come on!"

The students on the sidelines shouted loudly, he took the lead, rushing towards the finish line far ahead of the second place by an entire two body lengths in less than fifty meters.

Wang Chen did not rely on Spiritual Energy to cheat; it was entirely dependent on his own cultivated Physique to compete with others.

But his advantage was still obvious.

To avoid being too shocking, he even intentionally slowed down during the final sprint phase.

And then he crossed the finish line first.

"11 seconds 45!"

Around him, cheers erupted immediately, and Wei Hao from the second-year class (1), the sports committee member, gave Wang Chen a thumbs up, yelling loudly: "Awesome!"

With a time of 11 seconds 45, that was quite impressive because according to national standards, 12 seconds 8 is already an excellent level.

Wang Chen was not a physical education student, he had not undergone professional training and yet was able to run under 12 seconds. Wei Hao found it somewhat incredible and even felt a hint of envy.

If he had such talent, he wouldn’t need to slog through studies; focusing on sprints would have got him a pretty good future!

However, Wei Hao had no idea that this result was actually a deliberate control by Wang Chen.

Although it was only a preliminary race, Wang Chen still won the hearty praise of his classmates for obtaining first place, and some girls shyly brought him bottles of mineral water.

This was a glory that Wang Chen had never experienced in his previous high school life, and though not of great significance, it was incredibly precious.

In the afternoon, Wang Chen also participated in the first three events of the heptathlon.

The heptathlon only has a final with no preliminaries, and is completed over two days. Wang Chen won first place in all three afternoon events, instantly becoming the pride of the sophomore (1) class!

The next day, after Wang Chen completed the last four events of the heptathlon, he undisputedly won his first championship.

In the afternoon, he took the championship in the sophomore boys’ 5000-meter race as well.

On the third day of the sports meeting, in the much-anticipated 100-meter final, Wang Chen won the championship with a time of 11.07 seconds, breaking the record of the school sports meet.

Many people realized that not only was Wang Chen excellent in his studies, but his athletic abilities were also unbelievably strong.

Apart from not being handsome, he was practically the perfect idol!

In fact, Wang Chen hadn’t really exerted his full strength. Otherwise, not to mention breaking the school’s record, even national or world records would have been no problem.

But he had no intention of pursuing a career in sports at all.

Despite the unlimited glory that path offered, Wang Chen didn’t want to live in the spotlight, nor under the lenses of people’s cameras, and he also didn’t want to deal with all the binding restrictions that came with it.

So he deliberately controlled the display of his abilities.

Nonetheless, three championships were enough to make Wang Chen the idol of the sophomore (1) class, only just short of having girls sneak love letters to him!

However, Wang Chen hadn’t received any love letters from girls yet, but a newly popular school belle took the initiative to seek him out.

Truth be told, when the recently most popular girl in school, Xie Yunyao from sophomore class (5), appeared before him, Wang Chen was quite surprised.

This girl was the fair-skinned beauty with long legs he had seen in the school cafeteria a few days ago, and the cause of the conflict between Wang Chen and Zhang Jinping actually stemmed from her.

"Hello, I’m Xie Yunyao from sophomore class five."

Xie Yunyao politely inquired, "Are you Wang Chen?"

Wang Chen nodded: "Yes, what can I do for you?"

Xie Yunyao looked around and then said, "Can I talk to you alone for a moment?"

The surrounding students were all agape— the school belle initiating a private conversation with the top student, what kind of idol drama scenario was this?

After a moment of thought, Wang Chen agreed: "Sure."

So the two of them left the school sports field together and came to the small grove behind the dormitory building, where they found a bench to sit down.

As students and teachers were all attending the sports meeting, the place was very quiet and undisturbed.

Xie Yunyao brushed a lock of hair from her face and spoke softly, "Wang Chen, first of all, I want to apologize to you. Because of me, you were brought unnecessary trouble."

"It’s fine, you don’t need to apologize."

Wang Chen said with a smile, "That day in the cafeteria, it was my classmate who was impolite first. He should be the one apologizing to you."

Xie Yunyao stared at his face: "But Zhang Jinping caused you trouble."

Wang Chen nonchalantly replied, "That’s his problem. Besides, this school isn’t run by his family; he can’t just do whatever he wants."

Xie Yunyao was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Zhang Jinping is sick."
