"Didn't you notice that you have a special talent for free fighting?"

"Yes, my classmates say that I am talented, so I learn quickly and react quickly!"

"Huh! Do you know how patient I am with practicing with you idiot every night in my dreams? ”

"You? Do you train for me every day in your dreams? ”

"Or do you think that your offensive awareness and defensive awareness are innate?"

"Is that really the case? But you only have this ethereal voice and no substance, how can you practice with me? ”

"You turn around!"

Zhang Chengyuan turned around and found a sturdy man standing behind him, but he didn't have a face, or his face looked like a mask.

"You don't have to be surprised, most of the strange faces that people see in their dreams are blurry, and my appearance is something you imagined, because I haven't given you any information about my appearance, so you think of my face very vaguely, which is normal."

"Wait, then why are you training me? What's in it for you? ”

"Tsk, the quantitative changes have accumulated to a certain extent, and finally there has been a qualitative change. Not bad, it means that your kid is also growing up and maturing day by day. You've never asked me this question before, which means you now have an extra string in your head. ”

"Then tell me, what's in it for you?"

"Well, although I am confined to the content of your dreams, I am also confined to your dreams. So, for the past few years, your vision is my only source of information. If you become a do-nothinger, then the information I get is meaningless, and I'm more bored than dead. ”

"You, you want to help me become a productive person?"

"That's not true, it's just that you're in the ravine now, like a frog at the bottom of a well, and I need you to walk towards the peak, so that I can also see more scenery."

"But, what are you? Am I schizophrenic? ”

"Again, a hypothesis you haven't made before, but this question is so stupid. Am I schizophrenic of you? You're thinking too highly of yourself! When the time is right, I'll reveal you some things about me. Without further ado, let's continue to practice kickboxing! ”

The learning pressure of Enlightenment Middle School is quite high, in fact, there are not too many courses, and the homework burden is not very heavy. More pressure comes from the students themselves, and their own pressure often comes from comparison and competition with each other.

All students know that the Pure Land is a beautiful destination.

The Pure Land is to the inhabitants of the city what Heaven was to Christians in the last century, and Elysium is to monks.

But there is only one way to go to the Pure Land. In the city, only outstanding students who graduate from the Sailing School, along with their parents, will be eligible to enter the Pure Land Life, and if you want to graduate from the Sailing School, you must first be eligible to be admitted to the Sailing School.

However, this school enrolls very little students every year, and the conditions are very harsh.

Enlightenment Middle School, the best junior high school in Qicheng, only has eighteen places for the school every year when the entrance examination starts.

Zhang Chengyuan has a total of eight classes, with more than 40 students in each class, and the average number of students admitted to the school is less than three.

If you only take the entrance examination to an ordinary school, you only need to test two items: natural science and physical fitness, but if you apply for the school of departure, you also have to take the fighting test.

Although there are only 18 students admitted each year, almost all the students who study the fighting course every day are the students of the whole school, and few people are willing to give up their qualifications to be admitted to Qihang Middle School.

Time flies, and the partners grow day by day. Leng Changhe, Zhang Chengyuan, and Jiang Wenyu's academic performance and physical fitness scores are all ranked at the top of the class, but they are not the first.

The first seems to always be Ruan Xiyue. Not only is she a leader in academic performance, but she also became the captain of the school's women's long-distance running team within six months of enrolling. Maybe it's because she has a relationship with a professional teacher at home, and even in martial arts, ordinary boys can't beat her. Coincidentally, like Leng Changhe and Zhang Chengyuan, she is also good at grappling and locking. Such an outstanding and well-rounded school flower is admired by countless boys.

How many boys confessed to her, but she politely declined.

Ruan Xiyue also seems to be more mature than ordinary girls, she never minds contact with boys, but she never has a deep relationship with any boy, she never even shy away from communicating with Zhang Chengyuan, but Zhang Chengyuan is rarely willing to talk to her.

The girl named Zhang Luoqi, who entered school with Ruan Xiyue, is her best friend, and she has always been inseparable.

The days passed like this, until one day on the way home from school, Leng Changhe chatted with Zhang Chengyuan.

"Cheng Yuan"

Leng Changhe seemed to have something on his mind, and the good brother who rarely called each other's names on weekdays suddenly called him by name, which surprised Zhang Chengyuan.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Zhang Chengyuan asked with a smile.

"I have something to ask you, will you tell me the truth?" Leng Changhe's expression looked very serious.

Zhang Chengyuan frowned: "When did I lie to you?" What do I know, and I'm not sure I'll tell you everything? ”

"Do you have a favorite girl?" Leng Changhe stared at Zhang Chengyuan's eyes and asked seriously.

"Huh?" Zhang Chengyuan felt a sudden shock in his heart. He could see that Leng Changhe liked Ruan Xiyue, and he had always felt very uncomfortable about this matter, but he didn't expect that Leng Changhe seemed to be going to break this matter today, Zhang Chengyuan didn't want to lose such a good brother, especially for a girl who had already ignored him.

"Do you have a favorite girl?" Leng Changhe asked again.

"No......," Zhang Chengyuan whispered. In normal times, Leng Changhe would say anything he asked, but he had a hunch in his secret, and he couldn't say it this time.

"So, do you have a nasty girl?" Leng Changhe continued to ask.

"Hate?" Zhang Chengyuan was a little confused this time.

"I'll tell you a secret, I like Ruan Xiyue." Leng Changhe said to Zhang Chengyuan very calmly.

Zhang Chengyuan's mind buzzed, although he could see it, but when these words came out of Leng Changhe's mouth, he still found it difficult to accept it in his heart for a while.

"I knew you didn't have a girl you liked, you wouldn't understand!" Leng Changhe said seriously, "I can see that you hate Ruan Xiyue a little, and you like to ignore her when she talks to you...... However, I really like her, and I want to chase her. Leng Changhe paused, and then said: "So if I want to add her to the Excellence Alliance, don't be angry, okay, just think it's for me, don't be angry with her?" ”

Zhang Chengyuan's heart was churning, he thought that Leng Changhe wanted to talk to him today because he could see that he also liked Ruan Xiyue. But he never thought that Leng Changhe would actually think that he hated Xiyue and persuaded himself not to find Xiyue's awkwardness for him, what else could Zhang Chengyuan say?

He nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, good brother!" Leng Changhe's serious expression finally showed a smile again, "Brother, I may be asking a little too much, but in the future, you will understand when you have a girl you like." ”

After Leng Changhe finished speaking, his steps became lighter, and the whole person was as happy as if he had gotten a ticket to the Pure Land.

Zhang Chengyuan is so aggrieved in his heart, who can he tell about his pain? His best brother had a crush on the same girl as him, a girl who already considered himself a passerby.

But what kind of heart does he have to bless the girl he cares about to be with his good brother?

But Zhang Chengyuan couldn't do anything.

…………

In the second year of middle school, under Leng Changhe's repeated invitations, Ruan Xiyue finally joined the Excellence Alliance, but she had one condition - to join with Zhang Luoqi. For Ruan Xiyue, no one objected to Zhang Luoqi joining in.

At this point, the team of the League of Excellence has grown to ten people.

But Zhang Chengyuan was not happy.

The most effective way for girls to improve their fighting skills is to compete with boys. The most painful thing for Zhang Chengyuan every day is to watch Leng Changhe, who was originally his partner, playing wrestling, grappling, and locking skills with Ruan Xiyue......

This kind of close-range move comparison, the advantage of pulling and bumping can be taken at any time, and Zhang Chengyuan is heartbroken every time he sees it.

Although he is also responsible for guiding Zhang Luoqi's fighting, his mind is not at all on the introverted girl opposite him who doesn't like to talk.

But fortunately, Ruan Xiyue only communicated more with Leng Changhe when she was fighting, and she still maintained that kind of relationship with every boy, which was elusive.

But Ruan Xiyue is also a girl who thinks about others, every time a boy asks her for all kinds of invitations, her good friend Zhang Luoqi will suddenly pop out from all directions and corners, and then find a random reason for Ruan Xiyue to accompany her away, so that Ruan Xiyue's refusal seems so natural and affectionate.

So many boys hate this little girlfriend who can't kick away, this girl named Zhang Luoqi.

However, Zhang Chengyuan is in pain, and he knows that the most important thing is not his own little ambiguity, but setting sail for school. Sailing to school is his first priority, for himself and for his parents. In order for himself and his family to live in a pure land like heaven in the future, these little ambiguities can be sacrificed and ignored.

Of course, Zhang Chengyuan is not the only one who understands this truth. Who is not the member of the Excellence League, and indeed the entire school, who does not have such an ambition?

However, everyone's studies are getting busier and busier, and only every weekend, the Excellence Alliance can take half a day to come out and get together. Cao Duo, the "little gangster" who was not admitted to the Enlightenment Middle School, still insisted on getting together with his partners every week, because he knew that if some of his partners were admitted to the Sailing School of closed education in the future, it would be difficult to meet again in the future. Every time the members of the Excellence Alliance gathered, Zhang Chengyuan forced a smile, and Ruan Xiyue always looked very harmonious with her friends, never favoring one over the other, including Zhang Chengyuan.

Although Zhang Chengyuan doesn't feel good in his heart every time he gets together, he will also comfort himself: It's almost the end, and when the branch school exams are held, everyone will go their separate ways, the school is so difficult to get in, whoever plays well has hope to get in, me, Leng Changhe, Ruan Xiyue, it's impossible for all three of them to get in, right?
