Qin Heng took an extra look as well. After all, he wasn't an Immortal who had cultivated for thousands or tens of thousands of years. Even including his previous life, he was only nineteen years old. However, his state of mind was not something ordinary people could compare with. As for the young girl's incomparably beautiful face, he just glanced at it briefly before paying no further attention. He continued on his way to school.
The girl seemed accustomed to the attention from everyone, her expression as usual, lost in her music, running on her own. However, at that moment... BEEP BEEP BEEP!! The urgent honking of a car horn sounded! VROOM VROOM!! A red supercar charged forward at high speed, its engine roaring like muffled thunder, making people's eardrums ache as it headed straight for the girl.
Now, she was frozen in place. The sudden situation left her at a loss, and she even forgot to dodge.
The pedestrians on the road were all shocked. With such speed and at that distance, there was simply no time for rescue! They could only watch helplessly as the supercar hurtled towards the running girl. Some had already closed their eyes, unable to bear witnessing such a beautiful girl die tragically under the car's wheels. It was truly a great pity.
Qin Heng's gaze shifted over. Through the car window, he could see the woman inside frantically turning the steering wheel, trying to avoid the young girl. But alas, the supercar was too fast. There was simply no time. Moreover, it was early morning, and the road was filled with pedestrians. Even if she avoided the girl, she would likely harm others.
"All this so early in the morning..." Qin Heng shook his head softly and heaved a slight sigh. He then took a step forward and, in an instant, appeared in front of the girl. Scooping her up with one arm, he leaped and landed on the rooftop of an adjacent store.
The whole process was incredibly fast, taking less than a second. Onlookers only caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing by before the girl disappeared.
However, this alone was not enough to fully mitigate the damage caused by the supercar.
Qin Heng casually reached out and grabbed a metal pipe from the rooftop of the store. Just like throwing a javelin!
WHIZZ!
The metal pipe launched into the air, tearing through it and making a sound like muffled thunder. Qin Heng's strength was immense; each move packed with the force of tens of thousands of pounds. When he threw that metal pipe, it nearly broke the sound barrier. Therefore, the kinetic energy carried by the pipe was terrifyingly extreme.
BOOM!
It was as if a bomb had exploded. The pipe fell from the sky, directly embedding itself in the ground next to the supercar. Immediately, the ground cracked and rose up as if in an earthquake, forming a huge lateral slope.
The supercar, moving at high speed, followed the slope and spun around in the air. It then landed with a thud, upside down, and slid a considerable distance before coming to a stop. Throughout the entire process, it miraculously avoided hitting anyone.
Those who witnessed the scene were all stunned, watching the steel pipe embedded in the ground with disbelief. It was as if the heavens had calculated everything perfectly: the steel pipe planted exactly where it needed to be to flip the supercar and send it sliding along the right path, without hitting anyone.
Only Qin Heng knew that it was all the result of his calculations. Beforehand, he had chosen his target only after precisely predicting the supercar's flipping and sliding trajectory.
"Thank you, thank you," the young girl in Qin Heng's arms said shyly. She was only wearing a sports bra and shorts, her fair skin largely exposed. Inevitably, there was some skin contact as Qin Heng held her. It was also summer, and she had never been this close to any male before.
"You're welcome," Qin Heng replied with a smile as he set the girl down, his expression calm. He added cheerfully, "It was no trouble at all. If a delicate and perfect girl like you were to meet a tragic end under a car, anyone would regret it."
At his words, a blush spread noticeably across the girl's cheeks. She hadn't expected Qin Heng to so directly compliment her beauty. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "My name is Su Yiyi. Thank you for saving me just now." With that, she glanced at the destroyed road surface, a flicker of disbelief in her eyes.
"No need to thank me." Qin Heng waved his hand dismissively and with a leap, jumped straight down from the shop's rooftop. In a few quick moves, he had disappeared.
"A master! This is a Martial Dao master!!" Su Yiyi watched the direction Qin Heng had gone, her eyes shining brightly with excitement. She took out her phone and made a call.
"Brother, I've encountered a Martial Dao master in Tianhai. He threw a steel pipe single-handedly, just like a bomb, and it upheaved the road… Age? He looked quite young, maybe seventeen or eighteen... Okay, I understand."
Su Yiyi ended the call and let out a long sigh of relief. This US-China Youth Combat exchange is vital for our national dignity; nothing must go wrong. If we could get this person to participate, victory would be in our hands.
However, first I have to find him. Ah, I forgot to ask his name! Just who is this person?
...
Due to the impact of the fall and the skidding, the multi-million dollar supercar was already irreparably damaged. Fortunately, the expensive car's safety features were adequate, and the woman driver inside was unharmed.
She climbed out of the car with some difficulty, staring at the steel pipe embedded in the ground, her beautiful eyes wide with disbelief. After her initial shock, a hint of joy appeared on the woman driver's face as she thought, "Such strength... he must be at the peak of Hidden Force! This US-China Youth Combat exchange is crucial for the company's future development; victory is the only option! I heard the American young masters they're sending include a B-rank expert, equivalent to a Chinese Hidden Force Martial Artist—not to be underestimated. If only we could convince this person to participate... I must find him!"
...
Qin Heng had no idea he had inadvertently become the hope of others. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care. With his current strength, he was nearly invincible among humans. Apart from heavy weaponry, ordinary firearms couldn't harm him at all. The mere Youth Combat exchange meant nothing to Qin Heng. Even if all the competitors attacked him at once, he could defeat them all with just a breath.
Right now, Qin Heng just wanted to enjoy a calm and stable life. However, things seldom go as one wishes.
As soon as Qin Heng walked through the gates of Tianhai No.1 Middle School, he was stopped by a young male teacher.
"You must be Qin Heng. I'm Zhao Fang, the head of the discipline department." The male teacher looked at Qin Heng with disgust, as if viewing trash, and snorted coldly, "You've skipped classes without reason for ten days and have been a terrible influence. Come with me to the administration office."
"..." Qin Heng was startled and looked at Zhao Fang with some surprise, chuckling. "Zhao Fang, a fresh face. You must be new here, not recognizing me?"
