Combat prowess test: born with superhuman strength?

The person who secretly pushed Chen Lie from behind with their palm was a girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. The girl also walked up and looked at Chen Lie with a provocative expression.

Chen Lie pretended not to notice the two people from Wood Source Planet working together to use underhanded tactics against him.

Now is not the time for an outbreak.

Seeing that Chen Lie continued walking forward as if nothing had happened, the girl who had tripped him with Wood Source Planet quickly walked up and whispered something sarcastic in Chen Lie's ear.

"If all the people on Blue Star were like you, could you endure anything like a turtle?"

Chen Lie pretended not to hear and followed the group forward.

Seeing Chen Lie's reaction, the girl from Wood Source Planet stomped her foot.

Wang Jie led the seventy-five people from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region to a wall that was made up of doors.

"This is the combat power room, where combat strength is tested."

The combat power room is a high-tech creation of Canglong Star, combining puppetry techniques.

As soon as you enter the combat room, the Optical Computer in the combat room will immediately scan your physical attributes, physical strength, blood and qi levels, and martial arts realm.

Based on your strength, the Optical Computer will automatically adjust the level of the puppets in the combat power room.

The combat strength test requires you to fight against puppets. There are 930 candidates in total, and this combat strength test will directly eliminate 465 people, selecting the best.

The 465 players who defeated the most puppets advance to the next round!

"Now, take out your identification tokens and head to the combat room to undergo the test!"

As soon as Wang Jie spoke, the seventy-five contestants from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region selected a combat power room and entered it.

All fifteen people from Blue Star chose to stay in the adjacent combat room.

"I don't know what the combat room is like, but combat ability is one of my strengths. I wonder if I can pass this first round of selection."

"Next to Chen Lie, "Ruan Liusu said.

"Don't worry, you'll most likely pass." Chen Lie nodded.

"Thank you for your kind words. I'll go in first!"

Ruan Liusu waved to Chen Lie, then took the lead and walked into a combat room.

"Okay!" Chen Lie nodded to Ruan Liusu.

After everyone from Blue Star entered the combat room, Chen Lie also went in.

He placed his ID card in front of the combat room door, and the door immediately opened. Chen Lie then walked in.

Behind the door of the combat room was a mechanical bay. As soon as you entered, a beam of light swept across the air above the combat room.

"Candidate detected, scanning body information..."

"Scan complete."

Candidate's name: Chen Lie.

Birthplace: Blue Star, Canglan Star Domain East.

Gender: Male.

Bone age: 18.5 years.

Martial Arts Realms: Blood-Qi Stage Small Extreme Realm), Blood Refining Stage Grand Completion), Fourth Blood Tempering.

"Deep scanning is in progress..."

Upon hearing this report, Chen Lie's alarm bells rang immediately. He quickly used a secret martial arts technique to adjust the strength of his Blood Qi Value, attempting to deceive the Outer Stars detection instruments.

He cultivated Pure Yang Precious Blood, Strength Value is now more than 14 times greater than before. If Starry Sky University detects this, wouldn't it cause an uproar?

I might even be dissected and studied.

After all, even the top geniuses in the Canglan Star Domain only have 12 times the Strength Value.

Despite Chen Lie's deception using martial arts secrets, the Optical Computer eventually detected the incorrect result.

"Deep scan complete."

Candidate's name: Chen Lie.

Blood Qi Value: 5011.87 calories.

Strength: 42508.66 (average).

Strength Value: 8.48 times.

Blood-Qi Martial Way Quality Value: 100+ (Perfect Skin Refining, Perfect Muscle Refining, Perfect Tendon Refining, Perfect Bone Refining, Perfect Organ Refining, Perfect Blood Refining...)

"Abnormal manifestation: golden blood and qi."

"Based on the analysis by the Optical Computer: Candidate Chen Lie possesses innate superhuman strength (his true strength far exceeds his current level)."

"Hello, candidate Chen Lie. According to the Optical Computer's assessment, your true strength far surpasses that of an ordinary Blood Refining Stage Perfection, Fourth Blood Tempering. Based on your true strength, the Optical Computer will arrange for you to fight against a puppet ' Blood Refining Perfection, Nine Blood Tempering '."

"Candidate Chen Lie, please prepare yourself, the test of combat strength is about to begin!"

As soon as the voice from the Optical Computer faded, the cabin door in front of Chen Lie instantly slid open to both sides, revealing a seemingly vast space in front of him.

At the same time, a puppet dressed in martial arts attire and wearing a mask walked over from a distance.

Upon seeing the puppet, Chen Lie thought to himself that the Canglong Star's Optical Computer couldn't analyze the Pure Yang Precious Blood's scheme.

His current strength is far beyond what nine Blood Tempering could achieve. He could shatter this puppet with a single punch if he were to use his full strength.

However, with the Optical Computer monitoring him, Chen Lie didn't act too outrageously.

He stepped forward to fight the puppet, throwing a punch that sent it flying with a "boom." But the puppet quickly attacked again, and Chen Lie continued to exchange blows with it, always maintaining the upper hand.

Inside the lobby of the Real Combat Room.

Cheng Fengan, the instructor of the Martial Way Department, sat in the middle of the hall, with a large virtual screen in front of him.

On the screen, under the monitoring of the Optical Computer, 930 candidates participated in a combat capability test, fighting against puppets.

At that moment, a message notification popped up on the screen.

"Report any abnormal situations."

In Combat Room No. 137, candidate Chen Lie's test results were abnormal.

"Abnormal condition, golden blood and qi."

In front of the virtual screen, the academic deacon observing the screen from the Martial Way Department suddenly said, "Instructor Cheng, please come quickly, there's an anomaly report."

"Oh? What's the unusual situation?"

Cheng Fengan got up from his chair and got down.

"The anomaly reported by the Optical Computer is that one examinee possesses golden qi and blood."

"What? Golden Qi and Blood?"

Cheng Fengan was taken aback and asked, "Among these 930 examinees, are there any alien races? Normal humans couldn't possibly have golden blood."

"Cheng Fengan, it's impossible for beings outside of the human race to participate in our Martial Way Department's admissions competition this time."

"This candidate is indeed a human being," the academic affairs officer replied.

"Please show me the candidate's information and the test footage, I want to see what's going on," Cheng Fengan said.

"OK!"

The academic affairs officer immediately connected to the Optical Computer and transferred Chen Lie's candidate information and the test footage.

Within the light screen, every move Chen Lie made sent the puppet flying, but the puppet always managed to jump up and counterattack quickly.

The academic affairs officer wasn't paying attention to the combat skills test footage, but rather to the candidate information scanned by the Optical Computer.

"Instructor Cheng, the candidate's name is Chen Lie, a native of the Five Stars of the Eastern Region Blue Star."

"His Blood-Qi Martial Way Quality is actually over 100, which is equivalent to the level of top geniuses in the Blood-Qi Stage of our Canglong Star," the deacon said.

"A 100+ rating in Blood-Qi Martial Way? How could Blue Star possibly cultivate someone like this?" Cheng Fengan was stunned.

"Professor Cheng, look, the Optical Computer has determined that this candidate from Blue Star possesses superhuman strength!"

Upon hearing the academic affairs officer's words, Cheng Fengan immediately stepped forward to take a look, Chen Lie's information was instantly captured in his eyes.

"He truly possesses superhuman strength."

Cheng Fengan murmured, "Those born with superhuman strength are different from ordinary people in the Blood-Qi Stage. With just eight times the Strength Value, they can reach Blood-Qi Martial Way superiority of 100+."

I noticed that his Skin Refining, Muscle Refining, Tendon Refining, Bone Refining, Organ Refining, and Blood Refining were all judged to be perfect by the Optical Computer. The fundamental reason for this might not be because of his exceptional talent, but rather because of his innate superhuman strength.

Because those born with superhuman strength already possess near-perfect physiques and physical attributes, they can reach this level simply by following the prescribed training methods.

This golden aura is probably an inherent attribute of divine power.

"Professor Cheng, should we take this individual candidate to Director Yan for a look?"

"No, Director Yan has a bad temper, we can't bother him over such a small matter."

People born with superhuman strength can only receive enhancements during the Blood-Qi Stage. Once they reach the True Qi Stage, they will become just like everyone else. We will proceed as usual. If this candidate can pass through the rigorous selection process, he/she can naturally go to see Director Yan.

If he gets eliminated halfway through, so be it. He's just someone with superhuman strength.

Director Yan once said that anyone who cannot pass through all the hurdles should not be brought before her.

"Given Director Yan's temperament, it's better to avoid trouble!" Cheng Fengan said.

"OK!"

"Well, keep a close eye on this candidate. If he passes all the screenings, but Director Yan doesn't find him suitable and doesn't select him, you can tell Director Yan that this candidate is exceptional."

"After all, when Director Yan selects people, unless they are truly top-notch, she just goes by first impressions," Cheng Fengan said.

The academic deacon nodded in agreement and began to focus his attention on Combat Room 137.

Combat Room--

Under Chen Lie's repeated attacks, the puppet finally began to sway, and its movements slowed down by half.

Seeing this, Chen Lie unleashed a punch, and instantly, golden blood and energy surged forth.

With a loud "boom".

The puppet collapsed instantly under Chen Lie's powerful punch.

At this moment, the Optical Computer began broadcasting a reminder.

"First test of combat strength passed, second test begins!"

After the voice from the Optical Computer faded, two puppet figures identical to the ones from before emerged from the combat space.

"There's a second level?"

Chen Lie was taken aback; it seemed he had held back a bit earlier.

Seeing the two puppet figures attacking together, Chen Lie threw two punches in quick succession.

The two puppets were knocked away almost simultaneously.

Chen Lie suppressed his power as much as possible, making it appear that although he had suppressed the puppet man throughout the process, he could not easily win.

After being knocked away by Chen Lie's punches, the two puppets immediately rushed forward again, attacking Chen Lie from both sides with ruthless force.

"Bump!"

Faced with the puppet's attack, Chen Lie chose to suppress it head-on, kicking the puppet away with one foot.

"These two puppets work together flawlessly, greatly increasing their combat power!"

Chen Lie focused his attacks on a puppet, and after several dozen moves, the puppet began to disintegrate due to Chen Lie's fierce blows.

Soon, Chen Lie began to face another puppet.

After a series of battles, the second puppet was also quickly defeated by Chen Lie.

"Second test of combat strength passed, third test begins!"

As the notification from the Optical Computer sounded and then fell, three puppet figures simultaneously emerged from the battle space.

Chen Lie frowned as he looked at the puppet figures.

"It seems there's a fourth and a fifth level after the third!"

Chen Lie struck first. This time, although he still suppressed his power, he used even more power than before.

A puppet that has undergone nine Blood Tempering will collapse after being struck ten times by him.

Inside the battle hall, the deacon who was watching Chen Lie closely exclaimed in amazement when he saw Chen Lie suddenly become stronger, defeating a puppet of the same level in almost ten punches. "He really is a person with superhuman strength. His combat power far exceeds that of ordinary people."

The test of combat prowess was practically effortless for this person.

Inside the combat chamber, Chen Lie had passed the third, fourth, and fifth levels in succession and had reached the sixth level.

By this point, Chen Lie had destroyed a total of 15 puppets that had undergone nine Blood Tempering.

Faced with six puppet figures emerging from the sixth level.

Chen Lie.

'This is level six; that should be enough to advance. I shouldn't draw too much attention; that's fine enough.'

With this in mind, Chen Lie started paddling in the water.

The Optical Computer in the combat center could analyze the situation and match Chen Lie with a puppet that had undergone nine Blood Tempering shows that it was still quite fair.

It's just that this Optical Computer doesn't understand the power of Pure Yang Precious Blood; otherwise, it would have matched Chen Lie with a puppet at the Blood-Qi Transforming into Rainbow Realm.

After fighting for a while, Chen Lie gradually found himself unable to defend himself against the six puppets. He was then struck by a combined attack from two of the puppets and was 'unfortunately' defeated.

At that moment, the Superbrain voice in the combat room sounded.

'The combat strength test has ended. Candidate Chen Lie has passed the sixth level and advances to the next round.'

Immediately, the door to the combat room opened.

Chen Lie walked out of the combat room and then took out his identity token.

Outside the combat room, many of the people from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region had already left the combat room.

As soon as Chen Lie came out, Ruan Liusu greeted him and asked, "Chen Lie, you've been inside for so long, you must have passed the test by now, right?"

Chen Lie nodded and said, "You passed!"

"I told you, I passed the first four levels, but failed on the fifth. What about you?"

"I've reached level six!"

Ruan Liusu wasn't surprised at all that Chen Lie had reached the sixth level, because she knew that Chen Lie's combat skills were even stronger than hers.

Chen Lie and Ruan Liusu returned to the group of fifteen people on Blue Star.

Han Keke saw Chen Lie and walked over with a smile.

"Brother, I made it to the fifth level and passed! How about you?"

"You passed!"

"These puppets are quite interestingly designed; when several puppets attack together, their combat power doubles."

No wonder those unlucky guys from our Blue Star couldn't pass the test.

"Now look what's happened. After going through all that trouble to come to Starry Sky University for the election, they couldn't even get past the first round. They're incredibly stupid," Han Keke said.

Chen Lie asked, "Oh? Who failed?"

Han Keke said, "Four of us from Blue Star have been eliminated: Liu Yi, Li Wanwan, Xia Zhizhi, and Zheng Zhongming."

"That's good enough. Look at Shuimang Star next door, only two out of fifteen people are left: Yan Qingwu and Xie Qiuyue."

Chen Lie glanced in the direction of Shuimang Star and saw that everyone on Shuimang Star had a worried look on their faces.

At this moment, Luo Zhixun suddenly said, "It seems that none of the fifteen people from Wood Source Planet were eliminated in this combat strength test."

"What? The people of Wood Source Planet are this strong?"

"I just came out of the combat room, "Xu Wanqing asked.

"I don't know if they're strong or not, but they definitely have some tricks up their sleeves. Even Red Flame Planet eliminated two people this time," Han Keke said.

Led by teaching assistant Wang Jie, the Five Stars of the Eastern Region gathered together, with Zhu Jingfei, the fifth prince of the Red Flame Planet Red Flame Planet, Yang Jiannan, the Martial Arts Department champion, Jiang Yuan, Hao Yulong Zuo Yuan'er, and Zuo Xuan'er from the Blue Star, and two men and one woman from the Wood Source Planet.

Of these, aside from the people from Blue Star and Wood Source Planet who do not communicate with each other, the people from the other planets can exchange a few words later on.

Chen Lie entered the crowd, Zhu Jingshu, dressed in Red Flame Planet and talking to someone, immediately stepped out from the crowd and came to Chen Lie's side.

"Greetings, Your Excellency Chen Lie! I am Jing Shu!"

As she spoke, Zhu Jingshu brought her legs together, clasped them at her sides, and slightly bent her knees, bowing to Chen Lie like a refined lady from ancient times on Blue Star.

Chen Lie raised his hand and said, "No need to be so polite, and no need for such formalities."

"What are you saying, Your Excellency? Not to mention that Your Excellency holds a noble position on Blue Star, no less than my eldest Imperial Brother, the Crown Prince of the Great Yan Dynasty, just the fact that you helped me solve a problem that had been troubling me for so long is enough reason for me to treat you with the utmost respect," Zhu Jingshu said.

Han Keke, who was behind Chen Lie, rolled her eyes and asked Zhu Jingshu, "You also know how powerful my older brother is?"

"Big brother?" Zhu Jingshu asked, puzzled, "Are you and Lord Chen Lie siblings?"

But I remember, your name is Han Keke."

During her visit to Blue Star, Zhu Jingshu had clashed with Han Keke, so she knew Han Keke's name.

"We're siblings with different surnames, so what?" Han Keke raised her little face.

Zhu Jingshu smiled but remained silent.

At this moment, the alien girl who had been speaking with Zhu Jingshu pointed at Chen Lie and asked Zhu Jingshu, "Princess Jing Shu, do you know this person who can endure as much as a tortoise?"

Zhu Jingshu was taken aback. What did she mean by being able to endure like a tortoise?
