Chapter 107: The Competition Begins
The next day at noon, several rounds of red sun shone in the sky, and the Tianjiao Wenyang field was truly crowded with people, very lively.
When I and my little partners rushed over, we were all stunned: what's going on? Is there a big event here today or something?
"Are you very surprised? Hehe, Brother Yue Lao, are you really unaware or just pretending?"
Tan Xian Neng and Jun Ru Song appeared behind us at some point, seemingly surprised by my confusion. And I was left looking bewildered, Tan Xian Neng could only sigh and say:
"Hey, Brother Moon, I'm really impressed! These classmates are mostly low-grade students from the first to third grades. Is it not because of our three class leaders' charming personalities?"
Lao Xian is right, what happened between us three yesterday has already spread throughout the school, especially among the lower-grade students.
You're like a pine tree swaying in harmony with the Tao. I finally somewhat understand, nodding vaguely and muttering to myself:
"The three of us are so charming? Hmm, how come I didn't realize I had that much charm?"
As soon as he heard this, Tan Xian and Jun Ruo were shocked and fainted, rolling their eyes: He still doesn't know how shocking his actions are! Think about it, who is a freshman who can slightly win against two senior first-place winners in a couplet? Which freshman dares to accept the competitive challenge of two senior first-place winners? Although it's a big mess.
Seeing their expressions, he knew he was out of luck, so he shifted his attention to:
"Let's go on stage, I think our classmates can't wait any longer."
"Alright, it's time to go on stage."
The two of them agreed and the three of them went up to the central stage together. The students below suddenly boiled over, letting out all sorts of shrieks.
At first, my voice was the weakest. Although many of my classmates came for me, deep down they didn't think I would succeed. Few people believed that a newcomer could win, so many classmates had an attitude of watching a joke, waiting to see how this newcomer would make a fool of himself. Campus life rarely has a good show, how can you not watch?
Looking at the noisy crowd, I suddenly had a bad idea, wondering how much charm I have among these classmates? So, my mind uncontrollably ran wild, and all the thoughts of the surrounding classmates were sensed.
My mind is uneasy, sensing so many people at once, will there be any aftereffects? Wanting to withdraw, my thoughts are still greedily sensing, completely unrestrained. Not daring to slack off, I introspect and see that in my brain, storm after storm is growing stronger, the area of thought space is rapidly expanding, strands of pure spiritual energy are overflowing from the storms, nourishing myself; also, some desired information has been stripped away, letting me know that I do have some charm, but not as much as I imagined.
Letting out a sigh of relief, I secretly congratulated myself on not causing any trouble and gaining so many benefits. Shouldn't I use this method more often in crowded places from now on? I thought to myself, feeling rather pleased with myself. Little did I know that normalcy was just on the surface, and after some time had passed, the aftereffects would slowly start to appear.
When I came back to myself, an old man had appeared in front of the three of us. Through class meetings, I knew that this old man was one of the judges who specialized in recording competitive results.
Each time Tianjiao Academy students participate in the arena competition at the Tianjiao Martial Arts Arena, there will be a referee who records relevant information about the competition, including: basic information of the competing students such as grade level, strength, gender, etc.; competition rules, final results, and so on.
All the information recorded every day will be reported to the Academic Affairs Office, and the Academic Affairs Office will give corresponding credits as rewards based on the judges' evaluation. Generally, only the winner is rewarded, but in special cases, both parties are rewarded. As long as the competitive performance is good, there are many spectators, popularity and loud calls, even if they lose, there are corresponding rewards.
"The rules have been explained, you can start the competition now."
The old judge announced the start of the competition. I and Jun Ruosong unconsciously leaned towards each other, facing Tan Xian who was standing 20 meters away from us.
"Old Moon Brother, why haven't you taken out the divine weapon yet?"
You held a silver-white staff in your hand like a pine tree, while being vigilant about Tan Xian Neng, and reminding me; I bitterly smiled and said:
"Ah... My divine soldier isn't fully trained yet, it'll be ready in two more days."
"Alright then, you be careful yourself, Old Wicked's Golden Leg is quite formidable, don't get kicked by him or it'll hurt a lot."
"Alright, got it. You be careful too; I'll hold him back, you use your best moves to catch him off guard, heh heh."
"Hey, is this okay? Don't cheat me!"
"Cut the crap, since we've chosen to team up, screwing me over won't benefit you."
"Alright! I'll put victory or defeat in your hands now, hope you won't disappoint me."
Tan Xian was leisurely strolling on one side, not in a hurry to attack. Seeing that we had discussed it, he slowly said:
"Have you guys discussed it thoroughly? If so, I'll take action now."
"Come on then, don't hold back, otherwise, hehe."
I put on a fearless attitude like a newborn calf, and chuckled; the words had just fallen when a female high-pitched voice shouted:
"Come on, you can do it! We're rooting for you!"
What a familiar soprano, if it's not Ye Mengting, who is it? I looked around and found that it was her and Xiao Mei, but I don't know when they arrived. In order to achieve a shocking effect, I deliberately pretended to be excited and loudly said:
"Don't worry, I won't let you down!"
As soon as the words fell, I took the initiative to rush towards Tan Xian Neng, with an imposing momentum. However, most of my classmates did not see it that way, and they once again belittled me in their hearts, rolling their eyes in disdain. Some male classmates were even more direct, speaking out against me on the spot:
"Wow! What kind of person is this? Facing a powerful opponent, they actually dare to take the initiative to attack."
" Bah, little prodigy? I think it's just a hot-blooded little rice bucket that's about right!"
……
Only a few people remained calm, Tan Xian was one of them. He always felt that I was not easy to deal with, although he talked big, but never underestimated me. At this moment, seeing me approaching him in just a few seconds, he became even more certain of his thoughts: A formidable opponent!
And I was 5 meters away from him, I jumped up and rushed straight to his face door. He dodged nimbly with a cold smile in his heart: Hmph, comparing legwork with the Tan family? Wait and see what divine-level legwork looks like.
I kicked but missed, and didn't get discouraged; just as I landed, Tan Xian was able to sweep his leg and try to trip me up; I quickly pushed off the ground and jumped forward ten meters, immediately creating some distance between us.
A brief exchange of blows, and surprisingly neither side hit the other, staring at each other in dismay. The classmates below were stunned, only the referee seemed to be thinking deeply.
"Hehe, Brother Yue is hiding his true strength, now I'll have to go all out."
Tan Xian smiled lightly and said, without waiting for me to respond, he took a step forward with a set of footwork. Jun Ru Song reminded me while displaying high-level martial skills:
"Brother Moon, be careful with his wandering steps, and use your heart to feel his position."
"Got it."
I agreed verbally, but I didn't care in my heart. I thought: no matter how good the step is, can it be compared with my self-created Wind Step? Moreover, I also have a powerful divine sense.
After Tan Xian'er's footsteps were laid out, I didn't think so. These footsteps are really unpredictable and elusive. If it were someone else in my position, I estimate that they would not have discovered Tan Xian'er's attacking trajectory.
Not bad, but not bad, but I met a powerful spiritual consciousness, it's the biggest mistake. I also demonstrated my own creation, like the wind step, so-called wind and wind, come without shadow go without trace is the wind step.
The electricity is used up, I just bought it, sorry.
