Universe Infinite Canteen

Although he wasn't currently in the catastrophe belt, the effects of "Weight Training" were not active.

But the recent surprise tests along with the physical assessment had already depleted some of the students' spiritual power and physical strength at Hou De.

Ma Lu glanced at his personal panel and discovered that the bonuses for these two items were respectively 417% and 1513%.

Clearly, this wasn't solely the suppression effect of around 40% brought by the Dignity Candy itself, but also the lost spirit and strength of the teachers and students previously, which were now transformed into nourishment and infused into Ma Lu's body.

Ma Lu felt an unprecedented strength both mentally and physically, with every movement brimming with power.

And this also confirmed his earlier guess.

That is, the effects of "Dignity Candy·Basic" indeed matched its literal description.

Now, Ma Lu possessed mental and physical strength far exceeding that of an ordinary person, plus the accumulated battle experience from several dozen fights in the past three planes.

Dealing with these university students who hadn't really left campus was just too easy.

Not to mention that he had the Light Illumination Technique at his disposal, combined with the Chef's Knife that could be recalled unlimitedly, basically no one could last more than five rounds against him.

And this was the result with Ma Lu intentionally going easy.

Otherwise, if the results of the actual combat assessment were really too terrible, it would affect his collection of education points.

In addition, he had brought the Black Hole this time to enhance his combat power.

Just now, through the Black Hole, Ma Lu had kicked a higher grade student's behind from afar, interrupting his halfway prepared talismanic magic.

Then it was a repetition of the previous process, physical suppression, a set of punches and kicks until the opponent cried for mercy.

The remaining thirty students seemed like a lot, but among them were ten freshmen, not much of a challenge, especially Cao Jiajia with her small frame, Ma Lu really couldn't bear to hit her hard.

To lay them down was done gently, after all, she was the school's most potential prospect to date, the only Grade B qualification in the past twenty plus years, she needed protection.

Soon, the actual combat assessment ended, and simultaneously, Ma Lu heard the system's notification in his ear.

Informing him that he had earned 28 education points from this test, making Ma Lu shake his head.

The education points gained from examinations were calculated based on the extent of the students' progress, and nearly three months had passed since the last final exams, yet most of the students hadn't shown much improvement, contributing only a mere twenty-plus education points.

This could also be seen from Cao Youyi's expression; her brows furrowed upon seeing the results.

She clearly wasn't satisfied with the students' progress, but she also didn't have a better solution; the school could provide limited assistance, and they couldn't demand too much from the students.

However, Ma Lu didn't care about all this and directly spoke, "Too weak, with such standards entering the catastrophe belt is seeking death, starting today, every week will have at least one additional actual combat lesson."

"The school does have combat lessons," a female teacher with the surname Jing couldn't help but interject, but when Ma Lu's gaze shifted to her, she panicked and lowered her head.

"I'm talking about real combat lessons," Ma Lu said, "The location will be in the catastrophe belt, I will personally teach, everyone, regardless of grade, will participate."

His words once spoken left the whole school's teachers and students stunned.

In the past when Cao Jin Hua was still around, he would occasionally take students to clear the catastrophe belt, but not so frequently, only two or three times a year, and it was always the higher-grade students with outstanding performance.

And Principal Cao's cautious attitude toward the catastrophe belt wasn't due to a lack of courage. On the contrary, it stemmed from a sense of responsibility toward the school and students.

After all, the catastrophe belt was no joking matter, dangers lurked everywhere, and the slightest carelessness could lead to casualties.

Hou De's strength was at the bottom among talisman master schools, so indeed there should be more caution in the cleanup operations within the disaster belt.

However, Ma Lu had just demonstrated his prowess by taking down more than thirty students and had successfully established his authority as the principal.

And the effect of the Dignity Candy was still active, causing the school's teachers and students to be somewhat fearful of him.

Therefore, even though everyone thought his decision was absurd, no one dared to voice their opposition at the moment.

In the end, it was Cao Youyi who said, "Wouldn't it be too early to let the new students clear the catastrophe belt now? Even at those talisman master schools ranked high by the Ministry of Education, their students generally only attempt to enter the catastrophe belt in their second year."

Ma Lu, however, did not give ground, because these students were both his power accessories and his source of education points like Sunflowers, each one less meant a reduction in his power and output, something that Ma Lu could not accept.

"Not early, freshmen don't have to fight, but getting used to the environment of the catastrophe belt earlier and accumulating actual combat experience is also very necessary in my opinion."

The students were thoroughly panicked now; only then did they realize that Principal Xin was serious.

Some even maliciously speculated whether the school's financial situation had truly deteriorated to an unrecoverable extent, and whether the new principal was planning to send students to their deaths in the catastrophe belt in order to cut some expenses.

Ma Lu ignored the unrest and uproar among the crowd; he was different from Cao Jin Hua and did not hold any special affection for Hou De.

Cao Jin Hua left behind a gentle and scholarly image for the school's teachers and students, but Ma Lu had no interest in engaging in any heart-winning maneuver.

He had the system at his side, as long as he ensured that his orders were strictly followed, which Cao Youyi did very well.

Except for this time when he decided to take the entire Hou De student body into the catastrophe belt, which was quite outrageous, most other times Cao Youyi wouldn't even ask him why he made such decisions, simply acting as an assistant quietly implementing his will.

After hearing Ma Lu's explanation, Cao Youyi's face did not show too much emotion, she neither agreed nor objected.

But this behavior in itself was a clear indication of her stance.

At this moment, the advantages of the school being small became apparent, seeing Cao Youyi say no more, the remaining two young instructors also fell silent, afraid of saying something wrong and being kicked out.

With their teaching experience and level, it would be difficult to secure a job at other high schools.

So the school's management unanimously passed the new principal Ma Lu's decision, making it difficult for the students to object any further, especially since many of this year's freshmen were on Ma Lu's side.

Like Qiutong, who had already cleared the catastrophe belt with Ma Lu before school started, she wasn't so scared of the monsters in the catastrophe belt, and upon hearing they were going to the catastrophe belt again, she felt a little excited amidst the nervousness.

The once calm Hou De was as if a nuclear bomb had been thrown into it, causing a tidal wave as if heaven and earth were shattering.

And the heavier news followed soon after. Just after the test ended, Ma Lu quickly announced that all students needed to prepare and would set off in two hours to clear the catastrophe belt in the neighboring city.
