Students had an opportunity to earn money as well.
The school was connected to the real world, and students could take part in some jobs, such as teaching, cleaning, and taking care of rich people's villas... If the students excelled, they could even cooperate with the police in solving crimes and join various military operations in the army.
High school students today were not like caged birds three hundred years ago. They all had great abilities.
Students with a vitality of 0.9 could even work for the army and receive high pay.
Most civilians, normal people, had a vitality of 0.7.
0.8 meant you could be a cop or a regular soldier.
0.9 was equal to an army trainer.
And 1 was someone powerful, not just in school, but also in society.
Students before depended on their grades, which were worthless. It didn't matter how high your test scores were, you would exit society and no one would bother about you.
But the current score was real energy and power! This was the core of being human.
"What kind of work is better? The pay for teaching is too low. I have to figure out what kind of work has high pay. My brother even assisted the police in cracking a case a year ago, captured a dangerous person, and earned a reward of hundreds of stars." John thought.
"Hey! John, showing up to class so soon? That's not like you."
John had just reached the school's enormous playground when a tall student dashed towards him with a smirk on his face. He was 1.85 meters tall and very muscular. With a move of "Bear Hitting Tree" and a tornado-like explosive force, he violently crashed into him.
This was his classmate, Tiger House, whose vitality had reached 0.8 and who enjoyed playing pranks the most.
Not long ago, John had been toppled by him a few times, and then he chuckled at him, ridiculing him for being feeble.
Tiger House was very irritating in class, especially normal students like John who were always harassed by him.
A person with a vitality of 0.8 could easily defeat five or six people with a vitality of 0.7 in a fight. This was the basic difference.
Hmph!
John grunted coldly, curved his body, swayed like willows in the breeze, avoided the collision with a single motion. His bones and spine bent, his muscles coiled, and his whole body seemed as tight as the spring steel wire!
Boneless Jiu-Jitsu, Bone Twisting Roundabout Kill!
Then his body struck Tiger House hard.
Bang!
The whole body of Tiger House was hit like by a truck, flew out, landed heavily on the runway, dazed. His nose was injured and his face was puffy. It took him a long time to recover his awareness.
"Boneless Jiu-Jitsu, Bone Twisting Roundabout Kill? No! How can you trash do such a hard move with 0.7 vitality?"
He was stunned.
Boneless Jiu-Jitsu was a "C-level" physical martial arts. It was a self-taught course in the school. Although everyone could learn it, it was very hard. It required a lot of flexibility in the bones, elasticity in the muscles, and strength in the tendons. And there was only one outcome of studying it forcibly: the bones were shattered and the whole body was paralyzed.
Just now, the "Bone Twisting Roundabout Kill" move bent the bones of the whole body as much as possible, and suddenly released the springiness. The speed was extremely fast, the force was great, and the angle was tricky, making it hard to defend against.
This kind of thing was already very tough to learn, and it was even tougher to use it in real combat.
"Tiger House, don't make pranks in front of me in the future, remember that, otherwise, I will hit you once every time I see you." John didn't clarify anything at all, and felt very proud and exhilarated: "As for how I learned Boneless Jiu-Jitsu? No need to explain to you."
He had no patience for this kind of student who liked to bully the weak and pull pranks. He taught him a lesson with his fists and walked away without giving him a chance to say anything.
"Damn it!" Tiger House cursed and pounded the runway. He glared at John's back with hatred: "You'll pay for this."
John didn't care about Tiger House's threat. School fights were common, and Tiger House's family had no real power. He might send some goons after him, but John could handle them easily with his skills.
