Chen Liedao, "Enough with the nonsense, just tell me what you want, I'm in a hurry!"

"Damn, you're really arrogant!"

The leader of the Star Alliance spoke out angrily upon hearing Chen Lie's words.

"Brother Gui, look what that kid is holding."

The leader glanced at it and said, "It looks like a leave request."

"It's a leave request form, Brother Gui. This kid's trying to run away. He asked the instructor for leave because he's afraid our people will come after him and he wants to go into hiding."

Upon hearing this, the leader burst into laughter. "Kid, I thought you were so tough, why are you running away now?"

You think you can run away forever?

"Your time at the Genius Training Camp is far from over. Do you think you can escape?"

"Can't you understand human language? When did I say I was going to run away?"

"You're the leader, aren't you? You want to challenge me to Duel Platform?"

"I'm not going to fucking Duel Platform you."

Upon hearing Chen Lie's words, the leader of the Star Alliance immediately said, "Someone will deal with you today. Do you dare to come with me to the Star Alliance?"

Even Meng Qiming, one of the seven core members of the Star Alliance, was no match for Chen Lie, so naturally he dared not step onto the Duel Platform to face Chen Lie.

His mission today was to find Chen Lie and get a powerful member of the Star Alliance to deal with him.

Chen Lie shook his head and said, "I don't have time for that. If anyone wants to find me, tell them to come quickly. I'll only wait for them for ten minutes."

As soon as Chen Lie said this, the leader of the Star Alliance immediately discussed it with several students.

"Brother Gui, should I go back and inform Sister Ying now?"

"Hurry, hurry! I'll keep an eye on him here!"

The Star Alliance member nodded and began running at top speed, his Blood Qi Value several hundred calories, with his maximum running speed exceeding 40 meters per second.

In just over a minute, the Star Alliance members arrived at the Star Alliance's location.

Upon arriving at the Council Chamber of the Star Alliance Dormitory, he slowed his pace and went inside.

"Sister Ying, Brother Hao, we've cornered Chen Lie at the training ground of the First Training Department."

But Chen Lie refused to come and instead told you to go over there.

"Oh?"

On the sofa in the Council Chamber, a dashing young man stood up and walked over.

"Is he unwilling to come, or afraid to come?" the boy asked.

The Star Alliance member replied, "He said he doesn't have the time and wants you to come over, Brother Hao!"

"Let me pass? What a big shot."

The boy chuckled.

At this moment, a beautiful girl from the Council Chamber walked over and said to the young man, "Zhao Jinghao, why don't you go?"

"Okay, I'll go take a look!"

Zhao Jinghao nodded slightly and said to the Star Alliance member in front of him, "Lead the way."

"Okay, Brother Hao."

Upon hearing this, the Star Alliance member immediately stepped forward to lead the way for Zhao Jinghao.

Zhao Jinghao followed the Star Alliance members to the training ground outside the First Training Department.

From afar, Zhao Jinghao could see several members of the Star Alliance guarding around a person.

Upon seeing Zhao Jinghao, several members of the Star Alliance immediately greeted him, "Brother Hao!"

Zhao Jinghao grunted in acknowledgment, walked up to Chen Lie, and said, "You're Chen Lie?"

"You've got some nerve, injuring three members of my Star Alliance."

"Could you be the so-called Alliance Leader of the Star Alliance?" Chen Lie glanced at Zhao Jinghao.

"You're not qualified to get the Alliance Leader to take action."

I am Zhao Jinghao, one of the Seven Elders of the Star Alliance.

"Oh, so this is what the elders are like? It seems your Star Alliance is even worse than I imagined. There are only a handful of big shots and small fry in there, yet you insist on trying to form some kind of organization. Is this just children playing house?"

Zhao Jinghao suppressed his anger and said, "You're really arrogant. It seems you're prepared to face the wrath of the Star Alliance. Do you dare to step onto the Duel Platform?"

Chen Lie said, "Sure, but I'm different from you. My time is precious. Why would I waste a few minutes Duel Platform? There should be some kind of prize, right?"

"Yes, there is a betting mechanism in the Point Plunder Battle. You can bet on points, and the winner will receive a specified number of points from the other side."

I heard you're a newcomer. For a newcomer to have such strength right after entering the Genius Training Camp, you certainly have reason to be arrogant.

"Since you've just entered the training camp, you probably only have two basic points. Let's have a two-point bet," Zhao Jinghao said. "Twenty thousand points isn't enough to waste my time. One hundred thousand points!" Chen Lie declared decisively.

Zhao Jinghao asked in surprise, "You have 100,000 points?"

"Certainly."

"It seems you have quite the background. You've only just entered the training camp and you already have 100,000 points. But—in the Genius Training Camp, it's not about background, it's about ability!"

"As you say, let's bet 100,000 points and go to the Duel Platform!"

Chen Lie followed Zhao Jinghao expressionlessly to the Duel Platform next to the training ground.

At the same time, the official WeChat account of Chen Lie's Communicator Training Camp received a message.

Zhao Jinghao has issued you a points-based betting challenge.

Amount: 100,000 points.

[Agree/Disagree]

After Chen Lie agreed, the official WeChat account received another notification.

"Please proceed to Duel Platform 1 in the Training Camp within 20 minutes for the points-based battle."

The winner will gain 100,000 points from their opponent. If you fail to reach the Duel Platform within the time limit, you will automatically forfeit, and your opponent will take 2,000 points from you.

Since your opponent is a second-phase trainee, the Newcomer Protection Mechanism is activated; if they win, they will only receive 50,000 points from you.

Chen Lie stepped onto the Duel Platform and stood opposite Zhao Jinghao.

Zhao Jinghao faced Chen Lie directly. Although he was confident that he could defeat Chen Lie, he did not underestimate him.

The person who could defeat Meng Qiming was definitely not an ordinary person.

At this moment, the area Duel Platform was crowded with people, who were all surprised to see that the person on the Duel Platform was Zhao Jinghao.

"Isn't that Zhao Jinghao? The guy with over 800 Blood Qi Value, what's he doing on the Duel Platform?"

"Zhao Jinghao? Is he from the Star Alliance? It's said his strength ranks among the top ten in the entire Genius Training Camp. He'll be on the Duel Platform..."

Who is the opponent? Who has ever seen them?

"I don't know him, I don't recognize him, but to be able to fight alongside Zhao Jinghao on the same Duel Platform, he must be incredibly strong."

The Star Alliance members below the stage shouted, "Brother Hao, teach this arrogant brat a lesson! Break his arms and legs, if you can!"

On the Duel Platform, Chen Lie and Zhao Jinghao stood facing each other until the intelligent device in front of the Duel Platform announced, "The duel begins."

Zhao Jinghao suddenly jumped up.

"Mystic Evil Wind-Ripping Palm!"

A sharp whistling sound of palm wind cutting through the air rang out as Zhao Jinghao unleashed a top-tier B-Rank Martial Art. In an instant, a series of palm techniques were unleashed.

The entire Duel Platform was filled with the afterimages of waving hands.

Chen Lie's current strength is no less than Zhao Jinghao's, so he calmly and directly met Zhao Jinghao's Chen Lie palm strike.

In less than half a minute, the two exchanged more than a dozen blows.

After completing a set of palm techniques, Zhao Jinghao strategically retreated.

At this moment, his face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

This Chen Lie, when it came to a head-on confrontation, was in no way inferior to me.

I used a top-tier B-level boxing technique, and he was able to handle it so easily.

Damn it, that bastard Meng Qiming actually gave me false information!

Zhao Jinghao took a deep breath, glanced at his wrist which was trembling slightly due to the powerful recoil, and his regard for Chen Lie rose to the highest level.

"Take this!"

After a brief pause, Zhao Jinghao attacked again. This time, he used both his hands and feet, first unleashing a set of palm strikes, followed by several leg strikes.

In Chen Lie's eyes, Zhao Jinghao's moves were full of flaws. He had only wanted to see how good his opponent was during their exchange, but now he understood.

He immediately found the biggest flaw in Zhao Jinghao's moves and struck it hard.

Zhao Jinghao fell to the ground with a thud.

Chen Lie seized the opportunity and kicked Zhao Jinghao, sending him flying three or four meters away.

Zhao Jinghao pressed his hand against the floor, trying to stand up, but Chen Lie stepped forward and kicked Zhao Jinghao's arm hard.

A loud cracking sound of bones breaking rang out, and Zhao Jinghao let out a scream.

Chen Lie didn't hold back, but he didn't use excessive force either. After breaking Zhao Jinghao's leg, he kicked Zhao Jinghao off the Duel Platform.

With a loud thud, Zhao Jinghao crashed heavily to the ground below the Duel Platform.

At that moment, the instruments in front of the Duel Platform began broadcasting the results.

The duel is over, Chen Lie is the winner, and Zhao Jinghao now has 100,000 points.

Meanwhile, those Duel Platform were dumbfounded, unable to believe that Zhao Jinghao, one of the top ten fighters in the training camp, had actually been defeated.

"Brother Zhao!"

A group of the Star Alliance members quickly stepped forward to help Zhao Jinghao up.

Chen Lie stepped down from the Duel Platform, glanced at the group of the Star Alliance members, and said, "Next time, just have your Alliance Leader come directly. Don't send them all to their deaths one by one. Aren't you tired of this?"

After saying that, Chen Lie left immediately.

"Who is this guy? He's fucking awesome!"

"I've never heard of such a thing. To defeat Zhao Jinghao so easily, his Blood Qi Value must be over 900, right? Zhao Jinghao is one of the top ten strongest in the entire training camp. Defeating him will definitely secure him a place in the top three."

"The Star Alliance has really bitten off more than they can chew. As it stands, apart from the Star Alliance Leader, no one in the Star Alliance can reliably defeat Chen Lie!"

In the Star Alliance's Council Chamber, after hearing that a top-tier student of the Star Alliance with Blood Qi Value exceeding 800 calories had gone to cause trouble for Chen Lie, Lu Qingchan hurriedly went to the Star Alliance Dormitory's Council Chamber to find her cousin Lu Qingying, who belonged to the Lu Family.

"Cousin, please go and check on him. Chen Lie is my friend. He's a newbie in the training camp and doesn't know anything."

Lu Qingying said helplessly, "Alright, Qingchan, I already instructed Zhao Jinghao to just teach Chen Lie a lesson. Zhao Jinghao will know how to handle things."

Lu Qingchan said, "But with 800 calories of Blood Qi Value, every swing of the arm carries the force of three thousand jin. Even just a slight bump would require half a month of rest."

Lu Qingying chuckled, "Since he was able to hurt Meng Qiming, it means he's not that delicate. Qingchan, don't worry."

If Zhao Jinghao goes too far, the training camp instructors won't let him off the hook.

"Then shall we go take a look together? Cousin, please do me a favor," Lu Qingchan pleaded again.

"Sigh, alright then."

Seeing Lu Qingying 'Lu Qingchan expression, Lu Qingying had no choice but to nod in agreement. "I wonder what kind of luck that kid Chen Lie had to earn your concern."

"Chen Lie is my friend. Cousin, let's hurry, or we might be too late," Lu Qingchan urged.

Let's go!

Lu Qingying said no more and walked with Lu Qingchan toward the exit of the Council Chamber.

Just then, a member of the Star Alliance rushed over in a panic.

"Sister Ying, something terrible has happened! Brother Hao lost to Chen Lie on the Duel Platform, losing 100,000 points. He's already being carried to the infirmary by our people."

Lu Qingying was shocked. "What did you say? Zhao Jinghao lost?"

"Yeah, that guy Chen Lie is too strong. He started a points-based betting battle with Brother Hao. After stepping onto the Duel Platform, Brother Hao used his strongest martial arts, but he couldn't budge him at all."

In the end, Hao Ge had one arm and one leg broken, and also lost 100,000 points.

She's in the infirmary now, Sister Ying, you should go check on her right away!

Lu Qingying's expression changed drastically, and she immediately rushed to the infirmary.

Lu Qingchan was left with a look of disgust.

Chen Lie won? How is that possible?

A top-tier student with over 800 Qi Blood Qi Value was actually defeated by Chen Lie?

Just how powerful is Chen Lie?

Meanwhile, Chen Lie went to the Chief Instructor's Office at the training camp, stamped the last document, and left the Genius Training Camp with the leave slip.

After leaving the Genius Training Camp, Chen Lie contacted Chen Ying and asked for the address of the Dongchuan Military Academy.

The remote location of the Genius Training Camp, with no bus stops nearby, made it impossible for Chen Lie to take the Flying Bus.

Chen Lie followed the path of the Genius Training Camp and arrived at the entrance of the Trading Market.

He knew that the Trading Market and the Genius Training Camp under the Martial Artist Association were interconnected.

At the entrance to the Trading Market, Chen Lie encountered a stunningly beautiful woman with an ethereal and elegant demeanor as she disembarked from an airship.

The woman, with an air of elegance like a secluded orchid in a valley, also saw Chen Lie Chen Lie and walked towards him with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, what a coincidence, we meet again."

The stunningly beautiful woman greeted Chen Lie.

"Oh, it's Miss Luo. Hello."

Chen Lie nodded slightly to the stunningly beautiful woman.

The stunningly beautiful woman before him was none other than Luo Zhixun, whom Chen Lie had helped decipher the "Thunder Sound Tiger Leopard Body Tempering Technique" last time.

"Mr. Chen Lie, did you just come from the Trading Market?" Luo Zhixun asked.

"No, I just came out of the training camp."

"Oh? Mr. Chen Lie is actually a student in the Genius Training Camp?" Luo Zhixun asked in surprise.

"Yes." Chen Lie nodded.

Where are you going? Do you need me to give you a ride?

"I'm going to the Dongchuan Military Academy. If it's convenient for you, Miss Luo, could you please see me off?"

Chen Lie did not refuse.

"Of course, Mr. Chen, please go ahead!"

Luo Zhixun led Chen Lie to her airship and made an inviting gesture.

Chen Lie boarded Luo Zhixun's airship directly.

Seeing Chen Lie board the airship, Luo Zhixun followed him onto it.

In the cockpit of the airship, a middle-aged man saw Chen Lie and Luo Zhixun board the airship one after the other and couldn't help but say, "Miss Zhixun Luo Zhixun lightly parted her red lips and said, " Uncle Wang, please take me to the Dongchuan Military Academy."

"Okay. May I ask who this is?"

Luo Zhixun replied, "A friend of mine, a young Divine Sense Master who helped me decipher the ' Thunder Sound Tiger Leopard Body Tempering Technique ' last time."

"Oh, I see! Indeed, heroes emerge from among the young!"

After asking these questions, the middle-aged man in the cockpit fell silent.

The airship took off and sped towards the Dongchuan Military Academy.

During the flight of the airship, Luo Zhixun suddenly asked, "Mr. Chen Lie, I wonder how your ' Thunder Sound Tiger Leopard Body Tempering Technique ' is progressing?"

"Me? I haven't cultivated the ' Thunder Sound Tiger Leopard Body Tempering Technique '," Chen Lie said.

"No cultivation?"

Luo Zhixun raised her eyebrows slightly.

She knew all too well how tempting a martial arts secret technique that could reach the Ultimate Realm of the Blood-Qi Stage would be for a martial artist, yet Chen Lie hadn't practiced it, which was simply too strange.

She also said at the time that it was permissible for fellow practitioner Chen Lie.

"Why haven't you started cultivating? Could it be because you haven't gathered enough resources needed for cultivation techniques?"

If that's the case, Zhixun can continue to offer some assistance.

Chen Lie simply said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Luo, but my current strength is too weak to cultivate such a profound martial arts technique."

Luo Zhixun knew that Chen Lie's explanation was that he didn't want to answer, so she didn't bring it up again.

She originally wanted to cross-examine and correct each other on the "Thunder Sound Tiger Leopard Body Tempering Technique," a secret martial arts technique, since Chen Lie Chen Lie a genius of divine sense and must have profound insights into martial arts.

It seems there's no other way now.
