Chapter 205: The Virtual Competition is Coming
Chapter 205: The Virtual Competition is Coming
"It's not me?" The woman in purple training clothes was slightly surprised: "Who? Tan Tai Feng?"
"No." The middle-aged man in the suit shook his head slightly.
"Is that Zhu Tong? Yu Mingwei?" The woman in purple training clothes said the names of two people in succession.
In her mind, these few people posed the greatest threat to her competition for the 'Second Class Martial God Inheritance Quota'.
Some are from Xinghuo University and some are from other universities.
But they all have three common characteristics. First, they are all Xia people.
Second, none of them had ever been to Feixing.
Third, they are all juniors and below.
"Neither." The middle-aged man in the suit shook his head.
"Could it be the seniors and juniors?" The woman in the purple training suit couldn't help but ask, "Principal Yu, isn't this privileged quota in our Xia country normally given to juniors and below?"
"Yin Man, don't worry." Principal Yu comforted him, "This person is about the same age as Tan Taifeng, and he is not from one of the three top martial arts schools."
"Li Yuan?" The woman in purple training clothes thought of it instantly, her eyes flashing like lightning: "Really?"
Principal Yu was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"Has he broken through to the fifth level of his skill?" Yin Man asked directly, with determination in her eyes.
Principal Yu shook his head and said, "It is still unclear what his specific strength is, but according to what I know, his place was directly decided by the two Star Lords of our Xia Country, and it cannot be changed."
"It's very likely that he must have made some remarkable breakthrough." Principal Yu said.
"Two star masters?" Yin Man's heart trembled.
How many Star Lords are there in the entire Xia Kingdom? What did this Li Yuan do to deserve such favor from the two Star Lords?
As far as she knew, even the president of her own Spark University was not a Star Lord.
"This matter is indeed urgent." Principal Yu sighed lightly, "It caught us off guard. Originally, the school planned to recommend you to compete for the second-class Martial God inheritance quota."
“After all, judging from strength alone, you should be the strongest in this Global College Martial Arts Competition, whether in virtual or actual combat. You are far ahead of all the geniuses in our Xia Country.” Principal Yu said, “Then, next year, we will push Tan Taifeng to compete for the second-class Martial God inheritance quota.”
Yin Man listened silently.
The strongest?
Last year when she was a sophomore, she successfully made it into the top ten in the virtual battle of the Global Collegiate Martial Arts Competition.
He was the only sophomore among the top ten at the time, but he almost didn't get selected for the Martial God inheritance.
After all, every year, only about 30 martial arts geniuses under the age of 10 are selected from the entire Blue Star, so the competition is indeed fierce.
This year, her goal is not only to get first place in both virtual combat and actual combat, but also to directly obtain the second-class Martial God inheritance quota of Xia Country.
Although one can gradually improve from the third grade after going to Feixing, it would be a lot slower.
One step at a time, one step at a time.
She aspires to surpass Fei Tian and stand at the pinnacle of civilization, so naturally she longs for this second-class Martial God inheritance quota.
"Principal Yu, is there no chance at all?" Yin Man gritted her teeth.
"There is no chance. The quota has been confirmed." Principal Yu said, "Don't be too discouraged. Try to steadily enter the top three in the virtual battle, and you will naturally be able to get a quota for the Martial God inheritance."
"The difference between third and second class is not that big." Principal Yu said, "As long as you are good enough, you will have the hope of becoming second or even first class when you reach Feixing in the future."
"Yes." Yin Man nodded slightly: "Principal, I will try my best."
"By the way, Principal." Yin Man suddenly said, "This Li Yuan will also participate in the virtual battle, right?"
"Of course he will. Virtual combat is a rare opportunity for training, and he will definitely be allowed to participate," said Principal Yu.
He had already thought of Yin Man's thoughts, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Soon both parties hung up the call.
"Li Yuan?"
"Two Star Masters decided on it?" Yin Man stood alone in the martial arts room, holding the sword, with a hint of coldness in her eyes: "You didn't even watch the game, and you just decided on the quota?"
"Maybe this Li Yuan is very good, but he didn't even give me a chance."
"Row."
"Then let me see how strong this Li Yuan is." Yin Man felt a surge of anger in her heart.
As the top junior at Xinghuo University, and even the top student in the world, she was extremely proud.
Geniuses are never willing to admit defeat.
If she lost the competition, she would accept it with all her heart.
Even if the strength of both sides is similar, she will recognize him, after all, she is two years older than Li Yuan.
But not even competing? She was naturally dissatisfied.
"Hua La La~" Strands of sword light burst out, the sword light was surging and extremely sharp.
In an instant, shocking cracks appeared on the four walls of the underground martial arts room.
……
Yin Man, who had a chance to win first place in the virtual battle, was not the only one who received the news at the same time.
There are also several other top talents from Xia Country.
For example——Tan Tai Feng.
"Principal Yu, you said that the privilege quota for our Xia country has been determined?" Tan Taifeng looked at the middle-aged man in a suit in the light curtain and couldn't help asking, "Yin Man?"
The first person he thought of was Yin Man.
"No." Principal Yu shook his head.
"That's Li Yuan." Tan Taifeng said with a smile, "There's no mistake."
"You guessed it right." Principal Yu said with a smile.
"It's not hard to guess." Tan Taifeng shrugged: "In terms of strength, Yin Man is the strongest... But in terms of potential, Li Yuan broke through half a month earlier than me. In terms of the speed of progress, he has been much faster than me in the past year or so."
"If you say that his skill level is better than mine now, I agree."
“I’m not surprised he was chosen.”
"Besides, according to convention, in the past we had to wait until the actual battle was over to confirm. Now, the virtual battle hasn't even started yet, but the two star masters have directly confirmed him. If nothing unexpected happens, he must have done something surprising again." Tan Tai Feng said with a smile.
Principal Yu smiled.
He could sense that Yin Man was unwilling, while Tan Tai Feng was much calmer in comparison.
"Try Harder."
"You are only a freshman and you have already reached the fifth level of skills." Principal Yu said with a smile: "As long as you perform better, you will have the hope of being selected directly."
"I understand." Tan Tai Feng nodded.
If one makes it into the top three in virtual or actual combat, then he or she will definitely get a place in the Martial God inheritance.
But if you don’t make the top three? That depends on the judgment of the top management.
But no matter what, he is only a freshman this year, and his hope is much greater than Yin Man last year.
hang up the phone.
"Li Yuan, got the quota directly? How abnormal." Tan Taifeng muttered to himself: "I thought I had a breakthrough and could catch up with you."
“It seems that the gap has become even bigger.”
"I hope I don't run into you in the virtual battle." Tan Tai Feng muttered, "In this way, my record against you will still be 100% successful."
"Haha, no matter how strong you are, you will still be defeated by me."
Tan Tai Feng felt very calm inside.
No matter how strong he is, Tan Tai Feng only pursues his own strength and...pretending to be cool.
"Ah."
"I will definitely not be able to beat Yin Man and the other perverts in the finals." Tan Taifeng thought, "Then let's go to the preliminaries...try to shine and win first place."
"First in the preliminaries, that's still first!"
……
Time passes day by day.
After returning to school, Li Yuan resumed his peaceful life. Every morning, he went to general education classes as usual. Occasionally, he would get together with classmates such as An Nong and Gu Qianghan.
In a blink of an eye, it was February 2st, and night fell in the villa of Kunlun Wuhan University.
Underground martial arts room.
"Wow!"
"Wow!" Li Yuan, who had just finished dinner, practiced shooting silently. As his shooting skills spread, he felt the changes in his body and the outside world.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~ The tip of the gun turned, and dozens of gun shadows appeared, with an extremely fast speed.
“My soul can always be in harmony with heaven and earth.”
"Even if I practice quietly, my whole body will gradually seem to merge into the world." Li Yuan thought to himself, "But once I burst out and start using my spear skills, this state of mind will be immediately destroyed, and even my mind and spirit will become difficult to merge into the world."
This is because of insufficient control.
The realm is not enough.
"slow."
"I'm going to try to slow down." The spear in Li Yuan's hand began to slow down: "Telepathically sense every shot, pursue the maximum power of every shot, and follow the traces of the natural movement of heaven and earth."
"Pursue the strongest power."
"To make the whole person merge into the world, that is the level of the fifth stage of perfection, which I cannot do now."
"I can only try to make every shot blend into the world as much as possible." Li Yuan said secretly.
Repeated practice of "The Meaning of the Stars", including previous exchanges with Li Yang and Dean Xu, gave him a clearer plan for his future path of practice.
First slow down your shooting and let each shot blend into the world.
Go faster and let your shooting skills blend into the world.
Eventually, the whole person will be able to burst into action and integrate into the world, then no matter his body movement or marksmanship, his strength will explode to an incredible level.
When God unites heaven and earth, he enters the initial stage of achieving the unity of nature and man.
When the body becomes one with heaven and earth, the five stages are complete.
Time passed by minute by minute.
suddenly.
"Hmm?" Li Yuan suddenly felt the smart watch vibrate, he looked down and saw it was an unfamiliar message.
The communication application read: "I am Tan Tai Feng, this is the number Da Zhuang told me."
Li Yuan couldn't help but smile, chose to accept the friend request and answered the call.
Wow!
The projection on the light screen condensed, and the figure of Tan Tai Feng appeared, indicating that he was in the martial arts room.
"Li Yuan, long time no see." Tan Taifeng struck a pose that he thought looked handsome and said with a smile, "Are you still practicing so late?"
"How can I catch up with you if I don't practice hard?" Li Yuan joked, "The global virtual war will start soon. I want to beat you once and get my revenge."
"How about we have a fight on the Starry Sky Fighting Network?" Li Yuan said with a smile, "Would you like to fight?"
"No need, I don't want to bump into you." Tan Tai Feng said with a smile: "Don't try to trick me, I know you have already broken through to the fifth level of skills a long time ago."
"I won't be fooled." Tan Tai Feng said righteously.
Li Yuan shook his head and laughed.
Li Yuan was not surprised that Tan Taifeng knew about his breakthrough, as Li Yang had mentioned this before.
"Is there anything wrong?" Li Yuan asked.
"You have got the second-class Martial God inheritance quota this year." Tan Tai Feng said with a smile.
Li Yuan looked puzzled.
"Don't play dumb. This is no secret to me. Our vice-president notified me." Tan Taifeng smiled and said, "I'm not here just to congratulate you. I just want to tell you to be careful."
"Be careful?" Li Yuan wondered.
"There is a girl named Yin Man in our Xinghuo University. I believe you must have heard of her." Tan Taifeng said with a smile: "She is..."
"Never heard of it." Li Yuan shook his head.
Tan Taifeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I'll explain it to you..."
Soon, Li Yuan found out who Yin Man was.
"This privileged position originally belonged to her?" Li Yuan thought thoughtfully.
"I can only say that she had the greatest hope." Tan Tai Feng said with a smile: "Now the game hasn't even started yet, and you've already snatched it away. Given her personality, I'm afraid she will be very upset with you."
"If she's not happy, then she's not happy." Li Yuan said with a smile, "Do you want me to help her feel happy?"
"She probably wants to beat you up." Tan Taifeng said with a smile, "I just want to remind you to be careful if you meet her in the competition, so as not to lose too badly."
"lose?"
"This girl named Yin Man only made it into the top ten of the virtual battle in her sophomore year. Is she very strong?" Li Yuan smiled faintly: "Which of us is not stronger than her?"
Tan Tai Feng was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Li Yuan is indeed yours, you are right, who among us is not stronger than her? There is really no need to be afraid of her."
"Row."
"Then I look forward to your match with her." Tan Tai Feng said with a smile: "Remember, if you meet me in the main competition, don't kill me, give me some face."
"If I give you face, I will lose." Li Yuan said with a smile.
soon.
Both parties hung up the call.
"According to the information given by the teacher, she was in the top ten in the virtual battle in her sophomore year. Now another year has passed. This girl named Yin Man has a chance to challenge for the first place in the virtual battle this year." Li Yuan smiled slightly: "Besides, she is already a junior, her physical fitness must be very strong, and she may also have a chance to challenge for the first place in the actual battle."
Li Yuan just said that he didn't know Yin Man, but in fact, he had read the information sent by Li Yang two days ago.
Among them, Yin Man was mentioned specifically and was marked as the first seed player.
"She is very strong, but my gun is not at a disadvantage either." Li Yuan felt calm.
Continue to practice shooting.
I kept practicing shooting until midnight.
"[Your spearmanship level has been raised from level 23 24% to level %]"
"[Your physical ability level has been improved from 24% of the fifth stage to 25% of the fifth stage]" Two consecutive reminders from the Divine Palace flashed by.
……
Another two days passed in the blink of an eye.
On February 2rd, near noon, freshmen from the Sixth College came out of the Black Dragon Building one after another.
"Big Brother, please give me some pointers on knife skills after dinner." An Nong said with a smile.
"Okay." Li Yuan smiled faintly, "Come to my villa in the afternoon."
Li Yuan never refuses requests for advice from close classmates and friends.
Teaching others is also teaching yourself.
In the process of guiding others, you may unknowingly figure out some points that you were not clear about in the past.
"Brother Yuan, are you confident that you can make it into the top 100 in this virtual global martial arts competition?" Gu Qianghan asked excitedly.
"What about you?" Li Yuan asked with a smile, "Are you confident that you can enter the finals?"
"Damn it, if I could make it to the finals in my freshman year, my dad would brag about it for the whole year." Gu Qianghan shook his head and said, "I think it's more reliable for you to win the championship than for me to make it to the finals."
Li Yuan smiled and said, "We'll see when the time comes."
suddenly.
"Buzz~" "Buzz~" Almost at the same time, the smart ring watches on Li Yuan, Gu Qianghan, An Nong and others vibrated at the same time.
Everyone subconsciously looked at the ring watch.
Li Yuan was not surprised. He clicked on the light curtain and a projection appeared. It was a document from the school - "Schedule and Rules of the 2044 Global College Martial Arts Competition (Virtual Battle)".
"The virtual war is finally here." Li Yuan smiled slightly.
