Entering the Top Ten
"The martial arts competition has ended. The top 20 challenge will begin. Liu Hengyu will face Chen Lie, and Chen Lie will emerge victorious."
As the broadcast began, Chen Lie walked down from the side of the Martial Arts Arena.
The crowd below the stage immediately erupted in enthusiastic gasps of surprise.
"Wow, this Chen Lie, I'd call him the strongest genius in this Martial Arts Grand Competition!"
"Liu Hengyu is a Elite Student Top 100 Ranking. Many Elite Student with higher Blood Qi Value than him are not as strong as him."
Chen Lie eliminated Liu Hengyu in just two moves; he definitely has the ability to be in the top ten of the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking.
"How come I've never heard of Chen Lie before, even in the Elite Class?"
Although many participants displayed strength far exceeding their previous levels in this martial arts competition, with some even increasing their Blood Qi Value by over forty calories, such strength—qualities among the top ten of the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking —could not have been unknown before.
Amidst the murmurs of the onlookers, the loudspeaker announced again, "The next challenge match will be between Yang Xixi and Wang Qiankun."
After the broadcast ended, Yang Xixi and Wang Qiankun walked onto the Martial Arts Arena.
Yang Xixi and Yang Qiankun entered the Martial Arts Arena and began to report their information.
"Yang Xixi from Elite Class 1, Blood Qi Value: 168.39 kcal." Yang Xixi announced her Blood Qi Value as soon as she stepped onto the stage.
On the other side, Wang Qiankun also reported his health, "Wang Qiankun from Elite Class 1, Blood Qi Value 159.17 cards."
The school's loudspeaker announced, "The competition begins!"
Yang Xixi immediately threw a punch.
Once the Blood Qi Value reaches a hundred or so, the difference within ten calories is almost imperceptible, and the competition mainly revolves around the martial arts skills each person has learned.
Yang Xixi had already mastered the Army-Breaking Fist, and in addition, she had been learning the Cloud Smoke Steps, C-Rank Martial Art footwork technique.
The combination of fist techniques and footwork created a one-sided situation in the Martial Arts Arena.
Within a minute, Wang Qiankun was forced to retreat from the Martial Arts Arena under Yang Xixi's fierce offensive.
At the same time, the announcement came over the loudspeaker. "The challenge has ended. Yang Xixi defeated Yang Xixi Wang Qiankun and has re-entered the top twenty in the martial arts competition."
"Next match: Zhao Jingtian vs. Gao Zhiyuan."
The first thing Yang Xixi did after leaving the Martial Arts Arena was to run to the Martial Arts Department supermarket on the edge of the square and buy two energy drinks. She then jogged over to Chen Lie to greet him.
"Senior, I'm back in the top twenty!"
She smiled and handed Chen Lie a bottle of energy drink.
Chen Lie took the drink and said, "Then let's keep up the good work and get into the top ten."
Yang Xixi said, "Achieving a top ten ranking is quite difficult for me. I remember that among the top ten students on the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking, even the tenth-ranked student has Blood Qi Value of nearly 190 and is proficient in several C-Rank Martial Art."
Unless I'm incredibly lucky and get a weaker opponent, I definitely have no chance.
"Just do your best," Chen Lie said.
After greeting Chen Lie, Yang Xixi returned to the waiting area where the students of Elite Class 1 were waiting for the competition.
Seeing Yang Xixi return, Lu Qingchan stepped forward and asked, "Xixi, do you know Chen Lie?"
"You know them?" Yang Xixi was taken aback, then nodded and said, "Yes, we know each other."
"How did you meet him?" Lu Qingchan asked.
Yang Xixi found it strange. "Didn't you know? Not long ago, you kept asking me to introduce you to the seniors."
"Senior? You mean—that Divine Sense Master friend that Green Bubble recommended to me is Chen Lie?"
Lu Qingchan was shocked.
"Don't you know? Or do you already know the senior?" Yang Xixi asked.
Lu Qingchan couldn't help but touch her face. At that moment, she felt her face burning and was so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear.
She remembered that Chen Lie had asked her for Green Bubble many times before, but she had always refused.
Now, she asked Yang Xixi to introduce her to Chen Lie's Green Bubble and eagerly went to add him as a friend, even introducing herself from the start.
Lu Qingchan seemed to hear Chen Lie mocking her.
Weren't you quite arrogant? Didn't you say you were devoted to martial arts and had no Green Bubble? Why are you adding me now?
However, after the initial embarrassment, Lu Qingchan was deeply shocked.
Chen Lie is actually Divine Sense Master?
No wonder he recently joined the Elite Class and his Blood Qi Value has increased dramatically. Now he can actually defeat an Elite Student is ranked among the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking in one move.
This level of ability is enough to rank them in the top ten of the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking.
Are Divine Sense Master really that powerful?
A dozen minutes later, all five revival challenge matches were over, and Yang Xixi and Zhao Jingtian both advanced back to the top 20.
The school's loudspeaker blared again. "Students, the Top Ten Competition will now begin."
In the first match of the Top Ten Competition, Lu Qingchan faced off against Gao Zhiyuan.
After the broadcast ended, Gao Zhiyuan and Lu Qingchan went up to the Martial Arts Arena Shuangshuang.
Because of the vast difference in strength, Gao Zhiyuan asked the martial arts instructor to concede defeat as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
The announcement blared again. "In the first match of the Top Ten Competition, Lu Qingchan faced Gao Zhiyuan. Gao Zhiyuan conceded defeat, and Lu Qingchan advances to the top ten of this martial arts competition."
"The second match of the Top Ten Competition: Chen Lie vs. Jiao Guangming."
After the broadcast ended, Chen Lie and Jiao Guangming walked onto the Martial Arts Arena at the same time.
On the Martial Arts Arena, Jiao Guangming began to announce his information, "Elite Class 1, Jiao Guangming, Qi Blood Qi Value 193.45 kcal."
"Chen Lie from Elite Class 5, Blood Qi Value: 142.31 kcal." Chen Lie also reported his Blood Qi Value.
The students outside the Martial Arts Arena began to discuss it.
"Jiao Guangming has already taken the stage. He's a powerhouse ranked eighth on the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking. I wonder if Chen Lie can be his match."
"Of course! Jiao Guangming joined the Elite Class at the beginning of his second year of high school. He's a veteran Elite Student. His Blood Qi Value is unfathomable. How could Chen Lie, an unknown nobody, possibly be a match for Jiao Guangming?"
"I think Chen Lie and his group of dark horses will continue their dark horse run all the way."
After the broadcast announced "The martial arts competition has begun," Jiao Guangming immediately got into position.
He held Chen Lie, a powerful figure capable of defeating Liu Hengyu in a single move, in high regard.
Therefore, Jiao Guangming immediately unleashed his most powerful martial arts, aiming to overwhelm Chen Lie from the outset.
Chen Lie easily countered Jiao Guangming's fierce attacks with a simple wave of his hand.
Although he had 50 fewer units of Qi and Blood than his opponent, his Strength Value was five times that of his Qi and Blood. In terms of sheer strength, he was stronger than his opponent.
Jiao Guangming felt a pang of anxiety when he saw that Chen Lie had easily dealt with his fierce attack.
However, considering that his opponent only had a little over 140 calories of Blood Qi Value, which was several dozen calories less than his own, he immediately became more determined and unleashed his ultimate martial arts move, "Vajra Palm!"
Jiao Guangming seized the opportunity, unleashing all his strength to strike Chen Lie head-on with a palm.
Chen Lie raised his hand and struck Jiao Guangming with his palm.
With a bang, Jiao Guangming felt his blood churning throughout his body and staggered back more than ten steps before he could dissipate the powerful force.
"How is this possible? His strength completely overwhelms mine?"
Jiao Guangming looked down and realized that he had already crossed the line and exited the combat range of the Martial Arts Arena.
The competition began, and the announcement came over the loudspeaker. "Second round of the Top Ten Competition, Chen Lie versus Jiao Guangming, Chen Lie wins and advances to the top ten of this martial arts competition."
At that moment, Jiao Guangming suddenly raised his hand and said, "Teacher, I'm reporting this."
Chen Lie deliberately provided incorrect information, which affected my battle decisions.
His strength is greater than mine, so his Blood Qi Value should theoretically be higher than mine. However, he reported an incorrect Blood Qi Value of 140, misleading my judgment and deceiving me into a direct confrontation with him.
"Wait a moment, I'll check."
The martial arts instructors who were hosting the competition in front of the Martial Arts Arena immediately found Chen Lie's file.
After checking, he said, "The report is invalid. Chen Lie's Blood Qi Value is indeed 142 calories. He did not report an incorrect Blood Qi Value."
Jiao Guangming couldn't help but say, "How is this possible? If his Blood Qi Value is only 142 calories, how can he surpass me in strength?"
Chen Lie certainly didn't want to reveal that he possessed five times the strength, so he said, "Because I practiced a martial art that allows me to suddenly unleash tremendous power."
After hearing this, the teacher who was presiding over the martial arts competition said to Jiao Guangming, "Alright, now you know the reason for what happened."
Jiao Guangming had no choice but to leave the Martial Arts Arena.
Immediately afterwards, the announcement came over the loudspeaker again. "Next round, Li Muge vs. Zhou Tianhong."
As the broadcast began, Li Muge and Zhou Tianhong Shuangshuang stepped onto the Martial Arts Arena.
As soon as Li Muge stepped onto the stage, he immediately raised his hand and said to the teacher hosting the martial arts competition, "I concede!"
After speaking, Li Muge left the Martial Arts Arena.
At the same time, the school's loudspeaker announced again, " In the Top Ten Competition, Li Muge conceded defeat to Zhou Tianhong, Li Muge Zhou Tianhong emerged victorious and advances to the top ten of this martial arts competition."
As Li Muge stepped off the Martial Arts Arena, he muttered to himself, "Damn it, so incredibly unlucky. I was matched with Zhou Tianhong."
Who is Zhou Tianhong?
The top-ranked Elite Student Top 100 Ranking is said to be a martial arts Martial Arts Student with Blood Qi Value exceeding 300.
It has firmly held the top spot on the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking for almost a year.
Faced with someone whose strength far surpasses his own, Li Muge didn't know what choice he had besides admitting defeat.
Even if the opponent is only slightly stronger than her, she will fight them to the end, but Zhou Tianhong is far inferior to her.
"Wait, isn't Li Muge supposed to be in the top ten of the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking? How come he just gave up?"
"Yeah, I also want to see the top ten strongest Elite Student Top 100 Ranking fight each other."
"Don't even think about it. Zhou Tianhong's strength is unfathomable, and his Blood Qi Value Yaoyao of other students on the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking."
It is said that Zhou Tianhong has mastered a B-Rank Martial Art to the point of being able to use it freely, and has also mastered two C-Rank Martial Art to the point of being able to use them perfectly.
"Think about it, in terms of martial arts alone, even someone with significantly higher Blood Qi Value than Zhou Tianhong Zhou Tianhong not be Zhou Tianhong match, let alone someone with lower Blood Qi Value."
"Li Muge was right to concede, because perhaps only those in the top ten of the Elite Student Top 100 Ranking truly understand Zhou Tianhong's strength."
