A high ponytail, a clean and crisp white tracksuit, and impeccable good looks.
Qin Ze stared blankly at the beautiful figure sitting on the referee's table.
" Nangong Qianrou, it's been a long time."
After leaving the Otherworld, he had thought that the two of them might meet again in the future, but he never imagined it would be in this way.
Qin Ze sighed softly to himself.
Looking at Nangong Qianrou's slightly immature face, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss and regret.
" Nangong Qianrou, a third-year martial arts champion, vice president of the student council, and the top beauty of the Haidu Academy, just broke through to level three at the end of last semester, making her one of the school's top experts."
Huai Xu noticed Qin Ze's gaze and began to introduce the details as if they were his own treasures.
The fat man gave a thumbs up. "Awesome, Third Brother!"
Huai Xu Yangyang, "Isn't knowing information about every pretty girl in the school an essential task before the start of the semester?"
On the referee's stand, next to Nangong Qianrou sat a girl with a slightly chubby face, crunching on potato chips.
"Sister Nangong, the top scholar from Jiang City is staring right at you."
"You're so charming, he was captivated by you so quickly."
Nangong Qianrou frowned slightly, then turned around and saw Qin Ze.
Just as his companion had said, this guy was indeed staring at him without any attempt to hide it.
lecher!
"This junior is quite handsome, and with such talent, he and Sister Nangong are quite a good match," the chubby-faced man said casually.
"Shut up." Nangong Qianrou's voice was as cold as ever.
The chubby baby raised his hand and made a zipping motion over his mouth.
"I forgot, there's also the student council president."
Nangong Qianrou looked at her coldly. The chubby girl stopped eating potato chips and became completely silent.
But, only a few seconds later...
"The overall strength of this year's freshmen is significantly stronger than that of previous years."
"Especially the top-scoring class, all of them are martial artists who have broken through to the next level, and there are even several gifted individuals."
"Back then, even Level One Martial Artist was a rare find, let alone someone with innate abilities. Now they're as common as cabbages on the roadside."
"Sister Nangong, do you think we're in the kind of era of great competition described in novels, where all sorts of geniuses and prodigies gather together?"
"I'm just cannon fodder, it's best to stay away..."
The incessant chatter was really annoying, so Nangong Qianrou glanced at her and said, "Can't you be quiet for a while?"
The chubby baby shrugged and pinched his lips with his right thumb and forefinger.
"Boss, you were too blatant in your observation. They found out, didn't they?" Huai Xu gloatingly.
Qin Ze disagreed.
He didn't have any particular thoughts just now; he was simply reminiscing about a past experience.
"Have you registered?" Qin Ze asked.
The fat man explained, "No need to register. There are five competitions in total. Freshmen who want to take on the challenge can just go up on stage."
"When the match begins, the veteran will keep his blood pressure at the level of Level One Martial Artist."
Even so, the physical strength of Level Two Martial Artist and Level One Martial Artist are not even on the same level.
Even with reduced Qi and blood, Level Two Martial Artist can still overwhelm an opponent with their physical strength alone.
Soon after, a female student wearing a red cheongsam stepped onto the stage.
"Welcome students to tonight's orientation challenge."
I won't go into the rules, I'm sure everyone is very clear about them.
"The five sophomores sitting over there are tonight's defending champions."
"First-year students who want to take on the challenge can team up in pairs and choose any senior student to challenge."
Students who successfully complete the challenge will receive a Blood Crystal reward.
"Now I declare the challenge officially open!"
In any field, the rivalry between newcomers and veterans has existed since ancient times, somewhat similar to the conflict between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Those who were able to get into the Haidu Academy, even in the regular classes, were all top students in high school and naturally had a strong sense of pride.
As soon as the host finished speaking, two students from regular classes stepped onto the stage and randomly chose a second-year veteran.
Wen Jing said in a deep voice, "They're all around level 0.5, there's no chance of winning."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the two freshmen were sent flying off the stage; they couldn't even withstand a single move from the veteran.
The veteran on the stage grinned. "I heard that this year's champion class is full of Level One Martial Artist. Let me see their strength."
Huai Xu rolled up his sleeves. "So you're still pretending, huh?"
Before Huai Xu could even get up, two of his classmates had already gotten up before him.
Judging from the fluctuations in their qi and blood, Qin Ze knew that they had only recently broken through to the first level and their qi and blood were not yet stable.
The veteran nodded. "That's more like it."
As the whistle blew to start the match, the freshmen launched their attacks simultaneously from the left and right.
The veteran swiftly blocked with both arms, then with a flick of his wrist, sent the two flying off the stage.
"Damn! The difference in physical strength between level two and level one is too big, how are we supposed to play?"
"That damn old bastard's face, I really want to slap him."
"Calm down, calm down. Every freshman goes through this process. Next year, you can stand in the position of the defending champions."
"Who was the idiot who came up with this welcome challenge? Completely moronic."
The freshmen in the audience were indignant, while the veterans were already used to it and enjoyed the superiority that comes with being an experienced person.
Two decisive defeats were a bucket of cold water poured on the freshmen, who were all hesitant about whether to go on stage.
Just then, a tall girl from the class pulled the shy Lu Tongtong onto the stage.
Qin Ze remembered that the girl's name was Han Yi, and she was a Level 1.3 student.
The sight of the two pretty female students, especially Lu Tongtong who seemed to have grown up on cuteness, made the whole room lively.
The veteran smiled slightly, "It seems the men in the top-scoring class all like to hide behind women like cowards."
"Don't worry, I'll be very gentle in a moment."
Han Yi scoffed, "Is all you can do with your words?"
The veteran's smile faded, "You refused a toast only to suffer the consequences; you asked for it."
Huai Xu slapped his thigh. "These veterans are too arrogant!"
"Second brother, let's go up there and beat those bastards up in a bit!"
Upon Wen Jing, his fists were already itching to pounce.
Seeing Lu Tongtong already battling the veteran on stage, Qin Ze opened the chat group.
[ Beast Tamer: By the way, has that welcome party started yet? One of my juniors told me during the day that he was going to go on stage Deer Cry Yo-Yo ]
Qin Ze didn't receive a reply from Little Deer; instead, he received a reply from the Fairy.
[ Fairies Don't Poop: This should be the start now. Did your child also apply to the Haidu Academy?]
[ Beast Tamer: Yes, but his aptitude is only average.]
[ Fairies Don't Poop: No big problem, Haidu Academy has plenty of resources, even those with average aptitude can take off]
Qin Ze left the chat group and turned his attention back to the arena.
Got you, Little Deer?
Wow~
A cheer erupted from the audience.
This was because Lu Tongtong had once again dodged the veteran's attack.
This is the sixth time since it started.
One time might be a coincidence, but six times in a row?
Qin Ze's curiosity was also piqued.
Bang--
Lu Tongtong ducked to dodge the opponent's punch, and then delivered a powerful punch that sent the old bird flying more than ten meters away, almost causing him to fall off the ring.
