Chapter 3: Absolutely No Living Off Your Face!

In the past, his handsomeness had an elusive, mysterious charm —

But now, it radiated with a sharp, heroic presence!

Every part of his body exuded a masculine aura, like a blazing sword unsheathed to scorch the heavens!

“Host’s current physical status can now be viewed in detail.”

“View.”

“Body of Absolute Yang: Brimming with life force, all evils avoid. Indestructible Body of Ten Thousand Laws · Fragmented: Partially immune or resistant to spell damage and control.
Tangible Power Level: Martial Artist, Tier 4!”

Su Nan’s pupils contracted slightly.

His power had increased far more than he imagined.

To think that the admission standard for Tianlan Academy was only Martial Artist Tier 3 — and now he had surpassed it by an entire minor realm!

What did that even mean?

In the entire Jiuzhou, Tianlan Academy had the highest standards.

Yet most martial arts academies only required the level of a quasi-martial artist for entry.

The standard for a quasi-martial artist?

A punch force close to 1,000 jin!

Tier 1 Martial Artist = 1,000 jin.

But the difference between the two wasn’t just numerical — it was fundamental.

Even if you had ten quasi-martial artists with 999 jin each, they couldn’t match a true Tier 1 Martial Artist.

Tianlan Academy’s bar was so high that only those who reached Tier 3 before age 18 were considered geniuses worthy of entry.

And now?

Su Nan had exceeded that line by a large margin!

You have to understand — not long ago, Su Nan was just an ordinary pretty boy.

Tier 4 Martial Artist — that meant a punch strength of over 10,000 jin at minimum!

At this level, he’d be among the absolute elite of his generation!

And that wasn’t even all — with the Body of Absolute Yang, his constitution had reached a terrifying level.

“Body of Absolute Yang: Yang energy is inexhaustible, and blood essence can suppress ordinary evil spirits.”

Sure, there was a downside — like massively increased attraction to female ghosts.

But the power boost more than made up for it.

Now, in the entire Jiuzhou, Su Nan’s physique ranked among the top-tier.

Compared to his previous trash body, this was night and day.

His once-quiet heart now surged with a burning passion.

Before, when he first transmigrated, one’s physique was determined at birth — it was supposed to be unchangeable.

That’s why, no matter how hard he tried, even after all these years, he couldn’t even reach the martial artist threshold!

But now?

His breakthrough took just a blink!

And with that breakthrough came vision — his world had grown vast.

Tier 12 Martial Artist — that was the true calling of a passionate man!

He would prove it —

Even though he could live off his face, he chose to rely on strength.

That was the true pursuit of manhood!

The system may have come late… but it came just in time!

He had to admit —

The moment he received the rewards, Su Nan just wanted to say… “Damn, that’s good.”

And then—

“Host, no need to worry. As long as someone confesses to you, you’ll grow stronger. You’re destined to become the most dazzling boy on top of the world!”

Su Nan’s mouth twitched.

He rubbed his temples — right, he forgot his system was a dumbass.

Now it wanted to bribe him with rewards?

Wasn’t everything that happened yesterday enough of a warning?

Even if he had to be drained of every last drop of Yang energy and dried like a husk —
Su Nan would never confess!

“Due to your uniqueness, being confessed to also grants power.”

“….”

Putting aside all the confession nonsense, Su Nan couldn’t help but ask:

“By the way, with my current state, would I have fared differently against senior last night?”

“I mean, Pure Yang body should suppress evil spirits, right?”

But something felt off—

At that moment, the once-chatty, “cute and obedient” system went dead silent.

“System?”

“If you’re here, squeak.”

……

“…Squeak!”

Damn it! Su Nan instantly understood —

The system had clearly set him up.

Every step had been calculated!

Luckily, he had naturally high Yang energy since childhood —

Or else, he really would’ve been drained dry by Mu Chuxian last night!

—Ding dong!

But Su Nan didn’t dwell too long on it.

Regardless of how it started, his current strength was thanks to the system.

At that moment, his phone rang.

Su Nan flipped his hair, pulled out his phone from his pocket, and smiled.

—New Student Enrollment Begins!

Tianlan Academy, the best martial academy in Yunmeng Prefecture, required all new students to undergo an entrance assessment.

This test would determine class placements — competition was everywhere.

Before, as a “connections admission” student, Su Nan didn’t need or want to participate.

It would’ve only made things awkward.

But now, having gained real strength, he was eager to use this assessment to measure his current abilities!

No time to waste — time to move!

Earphones in, upbeat music blasting, Su Nan sprinted toward Tianlan Academy.

But as he neared the gates, he realized—

He forgot to wear a mask!

Crap!

“He’s so handsome! Is he a fellow freshman too?”

“Waaah! I’m in love — I need that man!”

“I choose you!”

With screams echoing louder and louder, Su Nan could feel the fiery gazes of the girls around him — like they were trying to peel off his clothes with their eyes!

Being handsome was nice.

But being too handsome? Not so much.

Especially now — after receiving the boost from the Innate Pure Yang Qi and Indestructible Body —

He radiated a mysterious charm like the stars, and the scorching masculinity of the sun!

What girl could resist that?

Thankfully, they were at Tianlan Academy’s gate.

Anywhere else, and they might’ve physically tackled him!

Su Nan lowered his head and squeezed through the crowd — but every few steps, another girl would suddenly confess to him.

“I don’t even know your name, but I like you. Can I be your girlfriend?”

Could you be more hasty?

“From the moment I saw you, I fell in love. Without you, I’ll go mad — let me stay by your side forever!”

You literally just glanced at me!

Could you chill a little!?

Then there were gifts of all kinds — even spiritual herbs and rare materials being handed over.

The Confession System was speechless — surely it had bound itself to the wrong host.

This guy was absolutely outrageous!

Su Nan didn’t accept a single thing.

He didn’t need it, nor did he want to get entangled with any of these women!

3D girls — unless you bring a dimensional slicer, don’t expect Su Nan to fall for you!

Not even Senior Mu Chuxian was an exception!

The nearby guys were a mix of jealousy and awe.

Some were already whispering that Su Nan was the same guy invited by Mu Chuxian yesterday — a total big shot!

Some even rushed up, begging to be his disciple!

Meanwhile, in the Principal’s Office, The woman known as the “Jade-Faced Yama” — Xi Qinyu — stood beside a desk.

“Principal, all 120 of the new students are geniuses. Why should one special case be allowed to break the rules?”

“I do not support your decision to use privilege this time!”

Her sharp gaze fell on the list of names — 120 new students in total.

Tianlan Academy was famed across Jiuzhou — a beacon of hope for the new generation of humans.

As one of the four top academies, every single assessment was strict and necessary!

But—
