Arena Match

Che Wen'an looked at Lin Mu and said seriously, "I'm inviting you to join our Mad Battle Department once again. I can recommend you and get you directly into the Advanced Class!"

Lin Mu smiled and said, "Okay! I'll seriously consider it!"

Che Wen'an nodded. "Okay!"

After a few more brief words, Lin Mu turned and left.

Some people were skeptical and couldn't help but question it.

"Really? A freshman can challenge 4.5 times gravity after only a few days of school?"

"Yeah! I can't even withstand normal gravity for long now!"

"Is he just bragging?"

"..."

Che Wen'an came up to them, put his arm around their shoulders, and said, word by word, "Although I haven't known him for long, he is friends with Cui Boxuan, so he is my friend. He would never lie to anyone, understand?"

Those men, intimidated by Che Wen'an's intimidating presence, nodded slightly.

"Let's go!" Che Wen'an said to Cui Boxuan.

Cui Boxuan nodded.

After leaving the Training Ground, Lin Mu returned to his residence. After washing up, he sat on his bed and began to cultivate his Divine Soul.

Although his current achievements are already remarkable, he has not become complacent in the slightest.

He knew very well that there were many geniuses in the world, and some people were born in Rome.

Compared to these people, his current achievements are nothing.

Time passed slowly, and more than ten days went by in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Lin Mu had been living a very simple life, going back and forth between two points.

He traveled back and forth between the Training Ground and his residence.

Aside from meals and three or four hours of sleep, he spent all his time cultivating.

On this day, Lin Mu completed his training in the Gravity Chamber.

Sweat streamed down his body as he looked at the system interface, where rows of data appeared.

Name: Lin Mu.

"Blood Qi Value: 18.7 points."

"Mental Strength: 8.4 points."

"Skills: Fist Technique (Silver Grade 99%), Movement Technique (Gold Grade 19%), Blade Technique (Gold Grade 11%)."

"Secret Art: Dragon Secret Art Fragment (Minor Success 50%), Unknown Absorption Art (Minor Success 50%), Observer's Sight (Minor Success 80%)."

"Breathing Technique: Xuanmu Breathing Technique Fragment (50% Complete)"

"Technique: Dragon Serpent Body Tempering Technique (Mastery 16%)".

"Martial Skill: Dragon Roar Fist (Perfect), Flowing Dragon Steps (Perfect), Dragon's Thousand-Mile Stride (Perfect), Immovable Rock Golden Body (Perfect), Berserk Strike (Perfect), Thunder Extermination Strike (Great Success 74%), Mental Augmentation (Great Success 36%), Dragon's Thousand-Mile Stride (Great Success 93%), Blood Tiger Three Slashes (Great Success 31%), Dragon Flame Saber Art (Minor Success 37%)..."

"..."

Looking at these data, Lin Mu's eyes were filled with excitement.

Compared to before, his improvement is not just a little bit.

"With my current strength, I can also try to challenge the Human Ranking!" Lin Mu thought to himself.

He also wanted to know what level those geniuses in the academy were at.

He stretched his back and walked outside.

Today is the day he will fight Blondie.

The two agreed to a duel in the Arena a month later.

Lin Mu walked outside, and at that moment, his phone rang.

I picked it up and saw that it was a call from Wang Tao.

"Hey, Manager Wang!" Lin Mu said.

"Lin Mu, I'm sorry, the S-grade Contract I applied for for you has been approved, but the rewards haven't been issued yet!" Wang Tao said.

"It's alright!" Lin Mu said.

"I had someone investigate, and it turns out someone from the academy is suppressing you! It seems to be someone named Su Yucheng, who is also from the Vast Martial Hall, and his family has some connections!"

"It's because of his interference that the contract hasn't reached you yet, and the bonus can't be issued!" Wang Tao explained.

Lin Mu's eyes narrowed slightly.

He had been immersed in cultivation during this period and hadn't paid much attention to this matter.

Now that Wang Tao had reminded him, he naturally realized that something was wrong.

Because his S-grade Contract is a done deal.

Having been at the school for so long, with the capabilities of the Vast Martial Hall, they will surely contact him.

There's definitely a problem since we haven't been in contact yet.

"I understand! Thank you anyway for your concern!" Lin Mu said.

"It's what I should do, I even feel embarrassed. If this were Li City, I would definitely have taken care of it for you!" Wang Tao explained.

"It's alright! I can handle it myself," Lin Mu said.

He knew very well that Wang Tao was only Second-Order Martial Artist and could not possibly get involved in this mess.

After hanging up the phone, he walked outside.

All the Arena battles in the academy take place in one place called the Green Red Martial Stage.

Students often meet there to learn from each other, resolve conflicts, and most of the time they do so.

Even the challenges of the Heaven, Earth, and Man rankings are held there.

Lin Mu also learned about the challenge rules of the three rankings during this period.

Each person has three challenge opportunities per month.

Winning a match grants you an extra chance.

It's like if you keep winning, you can go from the bottom of the Human Ranking to the top of the Heaven Ranking.

But that's almost impossible.

Because those who make the list are all geniuses.

Many of them were prominent figures in the school.

Take Wu Yunxuan, who is ranked first on the Heaven Ranking, for example. He has been enrolled for seven years and is now Sixth Tier Martial Artist.

Looking across the entire academy, there are almost no people who can rival him.

The person ranked first on the Earth Ranking is named Li Yishuang. She has been enrolled for five years and has reached the Fourth Order of cultivation.

This also shows that, within the school, the weakest person on the Heaven Ranking is at least at the Fifth Order.

In a provincial capital, that would be considered middle-class.

Further up, they could become the leaders of a small faction.

With Lin Mu's strength, it's already quite an achievement to be ranked on the Human Ranking.

Upon arriving at the Green Red Martial Stage, one hears shouts and sees a large crowd gathered there.

Because this is the arena for martial arts competitions.

Besides resolving grievances and exchanging ideas, people also come here to observe and identify their own shortcomings.

Therefore, quite a few people come here every day.

Lin Mu went to the side to register, and an old man handed him a plaque.

His duel with Blondie was already planned.

It must have been Lin Yaoyao who did it.

He also wanted to know how much Lin Mu had improved during this period.

Arena number 177!

Lin Mu's eyes swept across the area, and he quickly located the Arena.

When Lin Mu arrived there, there were already quite a few people waiting.

Some familiar faces came into view.

Bai Mo, Tan Ci, Qian Mu, and others were already there.

After all, the duel between Lin Mu and Blondie was arranged a month ago, and many people in the academy knew about it.

Moreover, many people want to know what level Lin Mu, who ranked Martial Arts Exam Top Scorer, actually is.

Besides them, there was also Su Yucheng, who stood in the crowd with a few people.

Ye Fengmian stood beside him, his gaze somewhat gloomy.

This is Sacred Origin Martial School.

It's not just about talent, but also about background and resources.

Since Lin Mu dared to treat him that way, he naturally wouldn't let Lin Mu off the hook.

Lin Mu walked towards the Arena.

At that moment, the Blondie man appeared, looking at him with a hint of disdain on his lips.

"I thought you wouldn't dare come? Let me introduce myself. My name is Ding Hongtao, I'm Recommended Student, my current Blood Qi Value is 15.7, and I specialize in staff techniques..."
