Chapter 401: Battle Between the Academies
The first student to go on stage was quickly confirmed through rock-paper-scissors.
The other students watched enviously as he was the first to lie in the gaming capsule. Then, his figure quickly appeared in the virtual battlefield scene on the virtual screen.
This gaming capsule was clearly specially custom-made by Star Cloud Academy. After this student called Fan Xiu entered, his image was exactly the same as in reality. There were no changes.
As soon as he appeared, a white light flashed and a burly young man with the appearance of the Vig Republic appeared.
This student from the Sharam Academy glanced at Fan Xiu and laughed.
“These guys from your Earth Federation are all so weak. How can they be our match?”
Hearing his words, the Earth Federation students who were watching the battle were immediately furious.
“Damn, this guy is too arrogant!”
“So what if he’s thin and weak? The strength of a martial artist doesn’t depend on their size!”
“That’s right. This stupid bear-like guy still dares to be so arrogant. Fan Xiu, kill him!”
“Yes, Fan Xiu, deal with him well! Make this guy shut up!”
…
Looking at the agitated students around him, Chu Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Fan Xiu was lying in the gaming capsule now, so how could he hear the cheers of his classmates?
Teacher Manduka smiled and did not stop the students from shouting. He only looked at the situation on the virtual screen with an imperceptible nervousness.
On the virtual screen, although Fan Xiu was also a little angry because of the other party’s words, he was also a descendant of Huaxia like Chu Nan. His reservedness that had been inherited from the Chinese culture did not show this trace of anger. He only calmly cupped his fists and bowed to the other party before saying in a low voice, “I’m the fourth-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, Fan Xiu. Please enlighten me.”
The stupid bear-like student of the Sharam Academy did not seem to expect Fan Xiu’s reaction to be so calm. After being stunned for a moment, he casually cupped his hands towards Chu Nan.
“Fourth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist O’Neal, please enlighten me.”
Seeing O’Neal’s reaction, Chu Nan could not help but chuckle.
It seemed that this guy was not stupid. He knew very well that he was representing the first official martial arts competition between Sharam Academy and Star Cloud Academy. If he did not even abide by the basic rules of a fair martial arts competition, he would only tarnish the reputation of Sharam Academy and the Vig Republic.
“Right… speaking of the Vig Republic, I seem to have encountered a guy from the Vig Republic in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition. What’s his name?” Chu Nan frowned and thought for a moment. With his powerful data ability, he quickly flipped the name out of his memory, “Oh, right. His name is Rodman. I wonder where this guy is now. If he’s also in Sharam Academy, or maybe he’s among the students preparing to fight opposite him, it’ll be fun.”
While Chu Nan’s thoughts flew away, Fan Xiu and O’Neal had already officially started fighting after bowing to each other.
At first, the two of them were still very careful and only tested each other a few times.
However, after exchanging a few moves, the two sides had already roughly tested the other party’s standard, and the battle gradually became intense.
O’Neal’s martial technique was the same as his body size. It was rough and imposing. Every move seemed to be powerful as if a casual punch could shatter the air. The momentum was extremely shocking.
Fan Xiu was completely different from him.
Having cultivated the Internal Breath cultivation method “Willow Dance Heart Art” since he was young, coupled with the same elegant movement technique and palm technique, his entire body seemed to be light. Under the pressure of O’Neal’s fist, he was like a willow branch in a violent wind as he swayed wildly in all directions. At first glance, the situation looked dangerous, but in fact, he was not touched by O’Neal at all.
After the two of them fought for a period of time, O’Neal could not attack for a long time. He became anxious and increased his attacks further, but it also revealed more flaws. Finally, Fan Xiu grabbed an opportunity and slapped his armpit.
This palm strike looked light, but in fact, when his Internal Breath erupted, the force was more than 500 kilograms. O’Neal spat out a mouthful of blood and his huge body flew back.
Fan Xiu did not show mercy. He pounced forward and slapped him again and again, causing O’Neal to only be exhausted from dealing with him. There was no room to counterattack.
On the other hand, O’Neal was clearly not the type to be good at defense. In the end, he could not endure it anymore and was slapped twice by Fan Xiu before turning into a white light and disappearing.
This was because he had been judged by the Martial Soul system to have died.
The students of Star Cloud Academy immediately cheered.
“Haha, Sharam Academy is also called the best martial arts academy in the Vig Republic. It turns out that it’s only so-so.”
“That’s right. They even dare to challenge our Star Cloud Academy. Let us teach them a lesson!”
“How can you send out such a weak guy? Aren’t you afraid of losing face?”
…
Chu Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at the surrounding students. He thought to himself, ‘Salam Academy has always only called itself one of the three great academies of the Vig Republic. What’s wrong with you forcefully turning it into the number one academy?’
As for saying that O’Neal was weak…
In fact, from his performance just now, O’Neal was not weak at all. Be it his Internal Breath cultivation method or external martial techniques, he could be said to have cultivated them very deeply. At the level of a fourth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist, he could definitely become a powerful expert.
The reason why he lost to Fan Xiu was firstly because he had underestimated his opponent and was arrogant, and secondly, it was because Fan Xiu’s style happened to completely counter his bold and straightforward style.
Even so, it took Fan Xiu a lot of effort to defeat O’Neal.
If he was not careful in the middle, the person who turned into white light and disappeared should be Fan Xiu.
Soon, Fan Xiu exited the game. After leaving the gaming capsule, he received praise from his classmates.
On the virtual screen, Teacher Ronca appeared again with an ugly expression.
“Cough… We lost the first round. Next, we’ll send out a fourth-stage Internal Breath student, Manduka. What about you?”
“Then it’s the same for us.” Manduka smiled and agreed, letting the fourth-stage Internal Breath students play rock-paper-scissors again.
Soon, another student was confirmed.
This student stepped into the gaming capsule confidently and also appeared on the virtual arena on the virtual screen.
However, only three minutes later, he was kicked in his vital points by the student from the Sharam Academy opposite him. He turned into a white light and instantly disappeared.
Seeing this student leave the gaming capsule covered in dust, the other students of Star Cloud Academy were silent.
From the looks of it, Sharam Academy was not as weak as they thought…
Next, Star Cloud Academy and Sharam Academy sent students of the same level respectively. The results of the battle were mutually beneficial, but in short, Star Cloud Academy lost more.
After about an hour, another Star Cloud Academy student was defeated. Teacher Ronca appeared on the virtual screen again, but he would announce the next competition from time to time. Instead, he revealed a trace of doubt.
“Manduka, there should be a student called Chu Nan on your side, right? Why hasn’t he gone up?”
