Bro, Come Borrow Money (Thanks to Alliance Leader Immortal Qitian)
On the field.
Bai Zhenzhen's body moved like a ghost, flashing back and forth at high speed within the circle, constantly dodging the steel balls that were shot from all directions.
After two months of arduous training, Bai Zhenzhen's physical body, repeatedly tempered by the Thunderclap True Body and aided by the True Spirit Root, has seen its reaction speed and explosive speed continuously improved.
At this moment, her nerves, which ran throughout her body, continuously transmitted her thoughts, controlling her muscles to contract and then explode, dodging the high-speed steel balls as she moved.
Because her body reacted and moved so quickly, she was always able to dodge the steel balls at the last second, leaving a trail of afterimages.
"Much slower than Yu Zi's hands."
Compared to Zhang Yu, who went all out during their actual combat training, the steel balls in front of her seemed much slower, allowing Bai Zhenzhen to dodge while also having time to give her some feedback.
Meanwhile, almost all the contestants from the Three Great High Schools, just like Bai Zhenzhen at this moment, were easily dodging the high-speed steel balls shooting from all directions, forming a stark contrast with the other contestants who were being eliminated one after another.
In the audience seats.
Gang Shan nodded and said, "Jingchen, you're right. These two students from Songyang High School have indeed caught up with the level of the Three Great High Schools."
Le Jingchen smiled and said, "This is the effect of the breakthrough in Body Tempering technology. Even students who were far inferior to the top Three Great High Schools in the past have the possibility of catching up with the top students in the Three Great High Schools after undergoing the surgery."
Gang Shan said, "However, there seems to be a big difference between their performance and Le Mulan's? They don't seem as at ease as Le Mulan."
Le Jingchen nodded, stating matter-of-factly, "The Super Metabolism Surgery results in a comprehensive increase in drug resistance, allowing for the overdose of various medications."
"The effects of drugs cover all aspects, including strength, speed, explosiveness, balance, flexibility, reaction time, focus, digestion... various bodily functions can be enhanced through medication."
"In other words, the improvement that Super Metabolism Surgery brings to a person is the most comprehensive, without any blind spots or weaknesses."
"This challenge, in addition to physical speed and reaction time, tests the mind's focus and endurance, something that most Body Refining Cultivation Method struggle to cultivate."
"But for Le Mulan, who has undergone Super Metabolism Surgery, one injection into her skull is all it takes; if one isn't enough, two will do. And she'll have a level of concentration that surpasses all the other students in the room."
Le Jingchen recommended, "If anyone is interested in the Super Metabolism Body Tempering technique, you can check out the official website of Purple Cloud Pharmaceutical; there you'll find more detailed information there..."
After Le Jingchen finished praising Purple Cloud, Gang Shan asked curiously, "Will this surgery be very expensive?"
Le Jingchen nodded. "Purple Cloud has always wanted to use new technologies to benefit the world. Although the cost of this technology is not low, the surgery fee has now been reduced to below 1 million."
Gang Shan said, "This price is indeed not cheap, but recently the ' Dare to Borrow ' platform and I discussed it and launched a benefit for everyone."
"As long as you borrow money from me through the ' Dare to Borrow ' platform, you can waive the six-month handling fee."
"If you're a true brother, come borrow money from me..."
Le Jingchen watched quietly as the other party advertised, thinking to himself, "Although Gang Shan is Body Tempering internet celebrity, he neither sells medicine nor cultivation Cultivation Method. He only does the safest things like loan advertisements. His fan mortality rate is among the lowest in the Body Tempering internet celebrity world. He's a rare breed among streamers who cherishes his reputation."
"I wonder how much the company paid him to come here and promote the new technology."
Meanwhile, just after Le Jingchen and Gang Shan each finished their advertising campaigns.
All the regular high school students on the field have been eliminated.
As the space for dodging continues to shrink, students from Key High School are gradually being eliminated.
He Dayou struggled to dodge the high-speed steel balls shooting from all directions. As the space for dodging continued to shrink, his mind became highly focused, and beads of sweat dripped from his forehead.
Suddenly, he felt his legs slow down; the muscles seemed to be moving slower than his brain was thinking.
With a series of cracking sounds, He Dayou collapsed to the ground, unwilling to accept his fate.
He ultimately failed to fully control the transplanted muscles, and after a long period of high-intensity operation, a mistake finally occurred.
I checked my time; it was 58 seconds.
With a regretful sigh, he returned to the rest area of Songyang High School.
Zhao Tianxing looked at He Dayou with some envy, thinking to himself, "He actually lasted 58 seconds! If I were up there, I probably could only last 30 seconds at most."
He Dayou, whom Zhao Tianxing envied, felt no joy whatsoever.
At this moment, He Dayou was looking at the live broadcast screen with a longing expression.
"Didn't any of the Three Great High Schools get eliminated?"
"A new Body Tempering technique... I wish I could accept this kind of transformation too."
Le Jingchen commented, "The students from the Key High School have been almost completely eliminated, and the pool has shrunk by nearly half. Next, the students from the Three Great High Schools will be the ones to be selected."
Gang Shan asked curiously, "Jingchen, who do you think will ultimately win this round?"
Le Jingchen calmly said, "The students from Red Pagoda High School are generally too big, which puts them at a disadvantage in this round. They should be the first of the Three Great High Schools to be hit by the steel balls."
"The two students from Songyang have the advantage of being small in stature, which allows them to hold out a little longer. They'll be a step behind Red Pagoda High School and get hit along with most of the other students from Purple Cloud and White Dragon."
"As for the final first place... it should be between Le Mulan and Yu Xinghan."
"Although I have great confidence in this younger sister's strength and Purple Cloud's new technology, Yu Xinghan is, after all, Golden Core Disciple. His investment in his abilities far exceeds that of all the other contestants present, and his stats are the highest in the entire arena. Mu Lan may not be able to defeat him..."
Although Le Jingchen praised Yu Xinghan highly in his comments, he kept emphasizing the other party's status as Golden Core Disciple.
Clearly, they hoped that even if Yu Xinghan won, the reason would be attributed to the Golden Core Disciple, while if Le Mulan won, it would be due to the power of Purple Cloud's technique.
The rest of the competition process was also predicted by Le Jingchen.
First, students from Red Pagoda High School were struck by steel balls amidst angry roars.
Next, some of the contestants from Purple Cloud and White Dragon High School were hit by steel balls.
Bang!
Chu Qiuhe felt the steel balls hitting his arm. He snorted coldly, stopped dodging, and let the steel balls hit him hard, making a crackling sound. He then walked out of the room as if nothing had happened.
"Hiding and dodging is so annoying, I guess it's better to just tough it out."
As he walked, he also turned his attention to the big screen, keeping track of the performance of the remaining students who were still competing. On the other side, Lian Tianji, after holding on for another ten seconds or so, was also hit because he couldn't dodge in time.
As Lian Tianji walked towards the rest area, he kept his eyes glued to the live stream screen, watching the admiring gazes of countless students from both regular and Key High School, to see who else was competing.
A hint of regret crossed his face. "So, I guess I still couldn't compare to the Sacred First and Zhang Yu?"
As students from the Three Great High Schools were gradually eliminated, Gang Shan was surprised to find that Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu were still in the competition.
Besides Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, the only remaining contestants on site are Le Mulan and Yu Xinghan.
Did they make it to the top four?
Le Jingchen was also somewhat surprised, but then he thought it was normal.
"Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen's Physical Strength is ranked 5th and 7th in this competition, and they also have the advantage of small stature, so it's normal for them to squeeze into the top 4 in this round."
"I shouldn't have subconsciously looked down on them because of Songyang High School; after all, they should also have used the newly broken Body Tempering techniques."
"These two individuals may have a chance to rank in the top 5 in the overall Physical Competition."
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
Le Jingchen silently reflected on his actions, then looked towards the arena.
The circle had shrunk to almost the size of one person. Zhang Yu had already activated his Full Concentration state, observing the steel balls that were slowly being shot at him, moving his body little by little, trying his best to dodge each steel ball.
Bai Zhenzhen, on the other hand, twisted her body repeatedly, making all sorts of incredible dodging movements. With astonishing speed, reflexes, and flexibility, she made up for her lack of focus and continued to persevere.
But for the two of them, the most difficult thing now is not dodging itself, but having to keep turning their heads and bodies to see the steel balls coming from all directions when there is not enough room to dodge.
Bai Zhenzhen gritted her teeth and said, "If this continues, we won't be able to keep up."
As the space for dodging further shrank, it became increasingly difficult for Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen to dodge, and they were eventually eliminated one after another.
4th place, Songyang High School, Bai Zhenzhen, 2 minutes and 13 seconds
3rd place, Songyang High School, Zhang Yu, 2 minutes and 18 seconds
After leaving the stage, Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu, amidst the awe-inspiring gazes of the surrounding contestants, also looked with concern at the live broadcast screen, focusing on Le Mulan and Yu Xinghan, who were still vying for first place.
Bai Zhenzhen said somewhat unwillingly, "These two guys... I feel like they can see the steel balls shooting at them from behind?"
Meanwhile, on the other side, Le Mulan had lost her initial composure.
Their eyes and ears, heightened to an extreme by the tenfold Stimulant, keenly observed the changes in the surrounding airflow and determined the location from which the steel ball was being fired.
The brain, stimulated by ten times the Nootropic, became extremely active, constantly judging the sequence of the next dodging actions, and following the optimal route to avoid one steel ball after another that was shot at it.
The gushing blood flowed like a great river, delivering the medicine to every muscle in her body, stimulating their contraction and explosiveness, leaving a trail of afterimages with every movement she made.
Even so, as the circle shrank, Le Mulan felt that dodging was becoming increasingly difficult. Her brain was getting hotter and hotter as it worked at high speed, and sweat kept secreting from her forehead, running down her cheeks and down her snow-white neck.
Especially as the space for dodging shrinks, Le Mulan is completely unable to turn around, and her perception of the steel balls shooting from behind relies entirely on hearing, making it increasingly difficult.
Bang!
The moment she was hit in the back by the steel ball, Le Mulan relaxed abruptly and vanished from the small room in a flash.
Second place, Ziyun High School, Le Mulan, 2 minutes and 25 seconds
When Le Mulan, who had left the arena, looked at the live broadcast screen, she was surprised to find that Yu Xinghan was still dodging within that small circle.
Le Mulan was shocked. "How did he do that?"
As Yu Xinghan experienced the slowing world, the Third Eye in his brain seemed to sense the shock of countless people present.
Do you all find this difficult?
His Level 10 Heavenly Martial Heart Refinement Art allowed him to see a world in a slower pace when he Full Concentration focused.
The Third Eye in his brain gives him a 360-degree field of vision.
His superior Physical Strength, the highest among all competitors, combined with his explosive power, resulted in the most terrifying speed.
In the audience, Le Jingchen watched Yu Xinghan's actions and thought to himself, "This guy... can see behind me? If he's not using any magic, then it must be some kind of physical modification?"
"But White Dragon High School doesn't have the relevant technology either. Could it be Spark True Person's doing? Or... is this guy's innate special ability?"
Le Jingchen couldn't be sure, but he didn't raise any objections.
After all, Physical Competition test physical strength. If someone has special physical abilities, it's either a natural advantage or a technical advantage, both of which are within the rules.
The next moment, a gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd.
On the field.
Just as the circle on the ground shrank to the point that it became increasingly difficult for Yu Xinghan to stand, he suddenly squatted down and then pointed a finger downwards.
He actually touched the ground with one index finger, sat cross-legged, and steadily 'sat' on the circle.
Then, with the index finger touching the ground, the rest of the body continued to adjust its posture, like a silver tree dancing wildly, dodging the steel balls in all sorts of incredible and superhuman postures.
In the next few short seconds, Yu Xinghan displayed to everyone his strength, speed, balance, flexibility, and reflexes... a body that was so perfect it was breathtaking, exhibiting dominant power in every aspect.
Only when the circle completely shrank, becoming smaller than the area of a fingertip, did Yu Xinghan, amidst the shocked gazes of the entire audience, flicker slightly, then with a flick of his fingertip, he shot into the sky, dodging the last wave of steel balls.
The steel balls that were shooting out from all directions stopped firing as the circle completely closed.
When Yu Xinghan's figure fell from mid-air and stood in the room again, he was still not hit by a single steel ball.
First place, White Dragon High School, Yu Xinghan, 2 minutes and 33 seconds
On the large screen, Yu Xinghan smiled slightly at everyone present and said calmly, "Starting next month, Xianyun Corporation will be providing Body Tempering services for Imitation Demon Muscle in Songyang City. Everyone is welcome to pay attention."
