This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 196 - 4 In My Youth
Chapter 196: Chapter 4 In My Youth Chapter 196 -4 In My Youth “Great spirit!”
Li Fei looked at the eight large characters on the plaque, feeling emotional.
The population of Datong Prefecture City, as well as its economic, political influence, fame, and the number of martial arts experts, all-around surpassed those of Feng Province’s capital.
All this was solely because Datong Prefecture City had a Wu’an University!
In just over a decade, Wu’an University had produced many significant figures, including martial arts powerhouses and important court officials.
Such a place indeed deserved the title “Pillar of the Nation.”
“Classmate, as a special recruit, you need to report to the guidance office first. After entering the main gate, go straight ahead. At the third junction, turn left, walk about two hundred meters, and the first large building you see will be the Academic Affairs Building.”
The guard inquiring Li Fei spoke kindly to him after checking his documents.
“Okay, thank you.”
Li Fei thanked the other party, then put away the special recruitment papers, lifted two large suitcases, and walked through the gate in front of him.
Not far past the gate was a green and shaded boulevard.
Before Li Fei had a chance to fully enjoy the scenery of Wuda, an excited voice came:
“Xiao Fei, over here!”
Li Fei turned his head to look and saw Li Tianyu wearing a light blue robe, standing tall with short hair, smiling and running towards him.
Today Li Fei was coming to the university to report, and he had naturally informed Li Tianyu beforehand, so of course she would come to meet him.
Following Li Tianyu were two mutual good friends, Chen Lixin also wearing a light blue robe of the same style.
Li Tianyu was enrolled in the Zhi Ge Department, while Chen Lixin was studying Business, and it was very likely they would enter the Internal Affairs Office as officials after graduation.
Behind Chen Lixin followed an acquaintance—Chen Lixin.
This legitimate eldest son of the Chen Family had once paid someone to break Li Fei’s leg. Afterward, he was severely taught a lesson by Chen Yujing.
Now, after not seeing each other for half a year, Chen Lixin was wearing a smile as he looked towards Li Fei.
“Xiao Fei.”
Li Tianyu was the first to run up to Li Fei.
Despite not having seen him for half a year, she had no awkwardness and patted Li Fei’s shoulder heartily, saying with a face full of pride:
“Not bad. I thought you wouldn’t come until September this year, but you managed to get a special recruitment spot. You’ve also grown so much.”
Previously, Li Fei was only slightly taller than Li Tianyu at 1.78 meters.
Now he had surpassed 1.8 meters, towering quite a bit over Li Tianyu.
“You’ve changed a lot too, have you become a martial artist?”
Li Fei smiled as he sized up his sister.
He could feel a faint aura emanating from Li Tianyu, which belonged to an Implant.
“That’s right! I’m now a martial artist at the Body Breaking Middle Stage!”
Li Tianyu proudly raised her fist.
Her potential measured during her middle school years was just below Rank A, so it wasn’t impossible for her to break through from the Embryo Cultivation Stage to the Body Breaking Middle Stage in half a year.
“I also have to thank you for that Iron Essence Pill you gave me, super useful. You wouldn’t believe how hard it is to get this elixir in Wuda.”
Li Tianyu said.
“As long as it’s useful. I still have some Iron Essence Pills left; I’ll give them all to you later.”
Li Fei said with a smile.
Later on, Gu Zhenhui gave him several dozen more Iron Essence Pills in an attempt to win him over, but now that he had reached the Qi Change Stage as a martial master, he no longer needed such elixirs.
“No need, no need, you could use the elixir yourself—don’t give it to me.”
Li Tianyu immediately refused.
“Sis, I’m already a martial artist at the Body Breaking Late Stage now. Next, I’ll be preparing to break through to the Qi Change Stage, so I don’t need these elixirs anymore.”
Li Fei winked at Li Tianyu.
Before leaving Xing City, he had ‘broken through’ to the Body Breaking Late Stage in front of Hao Yi, planning to enter Wuda with this level of cultivation, which would also make future actions more convenient.
“You’re already at the Body Breaking Late Stage?!”
Li Tianyu exclaimed in surprise, causing Chen Lixin, who was walking their way, to change his expression suddenly as his gaze towards Li Fei also shifted.
In a place like the Martial Arts Hall, being able to break through from scratch to the Body Breaking Late Stage in just half a year—what kind of potential was that?!
“They must have made a mistake when they measured your potential before!”
Li Tianyu was a bit excited and also felt somewhat guilty.
It seemed that Li Fei’s potential was even better than hers. If they hadn’t made a mistake measuring his potential, Li Fei might have been the one to come to Wuda last year.
“It’s all thanks to the great teaching I received, plus a bit of luck, as I encountered an Implant that particularly suited me.”
Li Fei explained.
Although everyone’s potential is measured at a specific rank, the compatibility with different Implants varies from person to person. Even with the same Rank B potential, meeting an Implant that is an especially good fit can be on par with Rank A.
“By the way, why did Chen Lixin come?”
Li Fei gestured toward Chen Lixin, who was following behind Chen Lixin, and asked.
Li Tianyu looked back and said disdainfully:
“He must have heard about our dad’s promotion, plus the matter with your teacher and your mentor’s aunt. He’s just trying suck up to you.”
As her words ended, Chen Lixin quickly walked over and said to Li Fei:
“Li Fei, congratulations on successfully entering Wuda.”
“Mm.”
Li Fei nodded indifferently at Chen Lixin.
Chen Lixin suddenly took a deep breath, then bent down towards Li Fei, bowed deeply, and made a formal apology:
“Li Fei, I know that there were some unpleasant incidents between us before, and I want to offer you my sincere apologies here. If you don’t feel satisfied, you can hit me, and I won’t fight back! Or if you want compensation, I can offer that too, just name your price.”
The scene left Li Tianyu utterly stunned, not expecting Chen Lixin to utter such words at all.
This, Chen Lixin? It must be fake!
However, Chen Lixin didn’t find his cousin’s demeanor surprising at all and yawned, slightly bored.
Li Fei, watching Chen Lixin bow and pay respects, felt that the once arrogant and youthful brat of the Chen Family’s Eldest Young Master seemed to have matured a lot overnight.

Indeed, a man’s growth is not related to his age but to his experiences.
Some people, even in their thirties, still cling to childish fantasies and can’t shoulder responsibility.
While others might grow up overnight.
“Beating you up is unnecessary,” Li Fei calmly told Chen Lixin, “you said you wanted to compensate me, then compensate with a hundred Iron Essence Pills.”
He wasn’t magnanimous enough to completely overlook past grievances.
But now, he had no interest in bullying the Eldest Young Master of the Chen Family.
From beginning to end, the other party had never truly been in his sights, just like Yuan Dao back in the Martial Arts Hall.
Since Chen Lixin was willing to resolve their past conflicts, Li Fei wasn’t about to be polite.
Iron Essence Pills, a top-quality elixir, were difficult to acquire with money, and it was a fitting compensation.
“Xiao Fei.”
Li Tianyu looked at Li Fei, wanting to say something.
Li Fei had just mentioned he no longer needed Iron Essence Pills as elixirs, so his demand from Chen Lixin was naturally for her.
Li Fei gestured to stop Li Tianyu from speaking and looked at Chen Lixin:
“Well, what do you say, is a hundred Iron Essence Pills not a problem for you?”
Chen Lixin straightened up, gritting his teeth:
“Alright, Iron Essence Pills it is. I’ll gather a hundred for you within a month!”
Such elixirs weren’t something one could buy just because they had the money, even for someone like Chen Lixin, the Chen Family’s Eldest Young Master. That’s why he stated it would take a month to gather them.
“Fine, once the elixirs are in hand, our feud will be settled,” Li Fei said.
Chen Lixin looked at Li Fei and earnestly stated, “Believe it or not, I hope that in Wuda here, we can work on something together in the future.”
With those words, he turned around and left.
Watching his retreating figure, Li Tianyu mused,
“Why do I feel like he’s become a different person?”
“He came to Wu’an University, felt his own insignificance, and realized the difficulties faced by the Chen Family,” replied Chen Lixin, coming over and adjusting her glasses.
“Indeed, there are too many formidable people at Wuda!”
Li Tianyu deeply agreed with that.
Then she stopped thinking about Chen Lixin and, grabbing Li Fei, moved forward:
“Listen, the place of Wuda is huge. Even though there are a total of eight departments, our Zhi Ge Department alone occupies half of Wuda’s area!”
“The Zhi Ge’s grounds even have forests, ice mountains, and lakes! But those are all places where Exotic Beasts are bred, and you can’t enter without an assigned mission.”
Li Tianyu, pulling Li Fei along, introduced him to Wuda non-stop as they walked. She covered everything from the campus area to distinctive landscapes, from teachers to school gossip… Her enthusiasm was infectious, her expression excited.
After arriving at Wuda, Chen Lixin matured and became low-key. In contrast, Li Tianyu became more confident, like a passionately burning flame!
They were all young but living out their own distinct youths.
In a previous life, his campus life, although beautiful, had been low-key, without many impressive stories to tell.
In this life, he was sure that this period of his campus life would be spectacular!
“Sis, can you tell me how the Zhi Ge Department classes are conducted?”
Seeing Li Tianyu drift off-topic, Li Fei had to interrupt her to ask about the part he was most concerned with.
“It’s a credit system, without set assessments,” Li Tianyu explained to Li Fei:
“According to Wu’an University’s rules, Zhi Ge Department students must earn 30 academic points within the first two years after entering the university or face expulsion.
After that, there are no more time restrictions, and as long as you accumulate 60 academic points, you can graduate from Wuda. If you can’t earn enough points, you can stay at Wuda indefinitely, but the tuition will become more expensive every year.
Academic points are very important here; many of Wuda’s impressive heritages and high-rank resources need to be exchanged for points, like the Iron Essence Pills you asked Chen Lixin to compensate you with.”
Li Fei nodded, finding this system not so novel:
“How do I earn these points?”
“That can be done in many ways. I’ll explain in detail after you complete your registration. Go to the administrative building and register first.”
At this moment, the trio had already arrived at the base of the administrative building.
“What do I need to prepare for registration?” Li Fei inquired.
“You need to prepare for another talent test,” Li Tianyu said with a smile. “The talent assessment we did in middle school was just an approximation and might have errors, so Wuda requires every new student’s first task after reporting is to retake the talent assessment, and it’s very detailed.”
Li Fei pondered as he nodded.
Li Tianyu looked at him:
“To be honest, I’m more and more convinced that when we tested your talent before, something went wrong. Today is a good chance to see your true talent.”
With that, she led Li Fei into the administrative building to undergo a talent test.
