Especially that god-like swordsmanship; in the entire Class 9, perhaps only the top five students—Yin Yi, Cheng Ku, Xue Yue, and Lin Xueyin—could stand a chance against it. The others were simply no match.
Does this mean that this bottom-of-the-class student is about to break into the top six of the entire class?
Isn't that a complete turnaround?
Some of the young female students began to have stars in their eyes when they looked at Lin Beichen, without even realizing it.
This scoundrel, once he becomes strong, is actually quite attractive.
Especially this kind of story about a family's decline and an individual's rise, filled with a strong sense of melodrama, can easily stir up the deep-seated maternal love and sympathy of many inexperienced young girls, which then unconsciously transforms into some strange emotion.
Of course, all of this is based on one absolute premise—
High looks.
And Lin Beichen, in this aspect, has never been inferior to anyone.
Back when he first transferred to the Third Academy, before he exposed his brain disease, wastefulness, laziness, and bullying, he had already caused a sensation in the entire academy with just his face, making countless class beauties go crazy for a while.
At that time, some enthusiasts rated Lin Beichen as the top campus heartthrob, even claiming that if you traced back fifty years, this wastrel's looks would still be the best in the history of the Third Academy.
But later, Lin Beichen's series of foul moves completely alienated him from the people.
Even his extremely high looks couldn't save his foul reputation.
But now, everything has changed.
Some female students have even started to imagine a "prodigal son's return" scenario.
However, at this moment, Lin Beichen was not paying attention to anyone else's expressions at all.
His eyes were completely drawn to the second app icon that appeared in the app store.
It was an icon of a cartoon figure in ancient attire, sitting in a meditative posture.
Below it, seven large characters were clearly visible—
Intermediate Profound Qi Condensation Technique.
He guessed right.
His guess was completely correct.
Sure enough, the content of the lessons had to be recorded on the phone, and the phone would use some kind of magical function to process the video into a cultivation app, which would then appear in the app store.
Hahaha!
I am indeed a handsome and smart genius.
Lin Beichen was almost grinning from ear to ear.
He clicked on the icon to download it without hesitation.
As long as he used this app to cultivate his Profound Qi to level three and combined it with the three sword techniques, Lin Beichen believed he could definitely

sweep all opponents in the mid-year competition, successfully qualify, and stay in the school.
A prominent prompt box appeared on the phone screen—
"Downloading this app requires 100MB of data. You currently have a maximum of 200MB of data. Do you want to proceed with the download?"
Hmm?
Downloading the Intermediate Profound Qi Condensation Technique app only requires 100MB of data?
This is much less than the Basic Sword Technique Close Combat Three-Combo.
What does this mean?
In the phone's system, the rating of the three sword techniques is much higher than that of the Intermediate Profound Qi Condensation Technique?
Lin Beichen understood.
As for why he had 254MB of data last night but only 200MB today, it's simple.
Data is the host's Profound Qi.
Because downloading the Basic Sword Technique Close Combat Three-Combo yesterday consumed almost all of Lin Beichen's Profound Qi, and he hadn't mastered the method to condense Profound Qi, so after one night, the Profound Qi had only recovered to 200MB, which was already quite good.
Lin Beichen chose:
"Yes."
In the next moment, a familiar sensation came.
The Profound Qi in his body surged toward the phone, making Lin Beichen feel as if he was being drained.
The weakness came as expected.
A green download progress bar appeared on the phone screen.
After about three minutes.
"Ding!"
The app download was complete.
The installation process began.
Soon, the installation was complete.
Exiting the app store, he came to the phone's home screen.
The Intermediate Profound Qi Condensation Technique app icon appeared next to the three sword techniques app.
Lin Beichen clicked to open it without hesitation.
As a dynamic opening screen appeared, showing an ink figure sitting on the grass, the app officially started.
As Lin Beichen expected, the ink figure sitting on the green grass to cultivate was exactly like him, except its body was not solid but had a bright pattern running through it, like a spirit snake, following a fixed route from the dantian to the chest, to the limbs, and back to the dantian, continuously circulating.
"This is..."
Lin Beichen was momentarily stunned but quickly understood.
It was the route of Profound Qi circulation.
The main function of this app was to cultivate Profound Qi.
Almost simultaneously, Lin Beichen felt a weak stream of Profound Qi in his body start to circulate on its own, without his control.
"Ah..."
He couldn't help but let out a comfortable moan.
This feeling was very mystical.
It couldn't be described in specific words.
Otherwise, it might be censored.
The phone app cultivation began.
Lin Beichen closed his eyes, pretending to be cultivating as well.
In reality, he was carefully experiencing the subtleties of the app's cultivation.
The martial theory of this world holds that there is an invisible and colorless cosmic force that always exists between heaven and earth, like air, supporting the operation of all things and the laws of the universe.
It is mysterious and unfathomable.
It is called: Profound Qi.
Living beings can cultivate to incorporate Profound Qi into their bodies.
It can nourish the physical body.
It can also be used to attack enemies.
All kinds of martial techniques, array patterns, and even the cultivation of potions, are based on Profound Qi.
At this moment, Lin Beichen felt the benefits of Profound Qi nourishing his body.
A warm and cozy feeling spread throughout his body, from the inside out, sweeping away all weakness, irritability, and fatigue, making him feel even better than after taking a full restorative pill, a blue逍遥丸 (leisure pill), or a 金刚不倒丸 (invincible pill).
In a blink, an hour had passed.
The sensation of the Profound Qi stream circulating through his body had disappeared.
But the comfort remained.
Lin Beichen thought for a moment and guessed that this was probably because his body had adapted to the circulation of Profound Qi, so the sensation was no longer as noticeable.
He opened his eyes.
He opened his phone again.
Suddenly, his face turned sour.
Because...
The battery level had dropped again.
Now it was only 6% left.
Suddenly, all kinds of worries flooded Lin Beichen's heart.
Heaven, earth.
Which kind-hearted angel can tell me how to charge this damn phone?
Lin Beichen had a hunch that this phone could be charged in some unconventional way.
But so far, he hadn't discovered it.
Lin Beichen thought for a moment and closed the Basic Sword Technique Close Combat Three-Combo app in the background.
This way, only the Intermediate Profound Qi Condensation Technique app would be running, reducing the power consumption per unit of time.
