837 Powerful Enemy

Chu Nan did not know that Yang Xirui, a reporter, had been stopped by others for an interview. Half of his attention was on the calculations of the spatial energy structure data gathered in his mind, but most of it was on the opponent in front of him.

This was the first time he had focused most of his attention on his opponent since he participated in the competition.

In the previous eight rounds, he had always only needed to pay half of his attention to his opponent, but most of his attention was focused on sensing the details of the other party’s cultivation method mobilizing spatial energy. With this, he gathered enough data and understood the settings of the other party’s cultivation method.

Only after spending five minutes confirming that he knew the characteristics of the other party’s cultivation method well would Chu Nan be more focused and defeat his opponent to obtain victory.

In his opinion, the opponents in the first eight rounds were only adding information to the database in his mind. It was meaningless.

However, now, he had no choice but to divert more attention to his opponent.

The reason was very simple. This opponent was clearly different from the previous eight rounds.

Just by standing there, Chu Nan could sense that the spatial energy in the surrounding space was affected and naturally flowed around the other party at a fixed frequency and pattern.

Chu Nan had once sensed this situation when he faced a few of the strongest enemies in the past, but those enemies were all top Void Break Martial Artists or even Heaven Control experts.

In the past, although Chu Nan could sense this situation, he did not know what was going on.

However, now, he knew very well that the reason why the spatial energy around him would naturally show such abnormal movements was clearly a sign that the star cloud in the other party’s dantian had condensed.

Due to the condensation of the star cloud, the Internal Breath circulation in his body would transform into spatial energy through the star cloud, naturally affecting the flow of spatial energy around him, revealing this phenomenon.

This guy looked young, but he was actually an expert comparable to fourth-stage Void Break Martial Artists like Dakota and Kansas!

After determining this fact, Chu Nan was not shocked but happy.

The strongest opponent in the first eight rounds was only at the third-stage Void Break Realm. There were no signs of the star cloud in his dantian condensing. Now that he had finally encountered such an opponent, he could finally truly verify his calculations and practice these few days. He was no longer wasting time like before.

Seeing the excitement in Chu Nan’s eyes, his opponent clearly misunderstood his meaning. He smiled at him and said, “Chu Nan, right? I know you. You’ve been very popular in the past few days and are called the greatest dark horse in this competition by many people. You’re also called the strongest genius in the history of the Earth Federation.”

At this point, the smile on his face became proud.

“However, your Earth Federation is only a small country on the outside of the spiral arm in the end. Even if you’re the strongest genius in the history of the Earth Federation, you’re only so-so. I, Selemo, am far from the strongest genius in our Tulado Republic, but it’s easy to deal with you. If you encounter me, your journey as a dark horse will end here!”

Chu Nan could not help but laugh.

Why did the opponents he had encountered these few days always like to brag?

Could it be that because he had made some reputation these few days, these geniuses from various countries were unwilling to accept it?

Or was the status of the Earth Federation in the Orion Arm so low that martial artists from other countries would look down on them?

Of course, it was not wrong to think this way.

There were a total of 95 students sent by the Earth Federation to participate in this competition. In just five rounds, the others had all been eliminated, leaving only Chu Nan.

Now that Chu Nan could pass the first eight rounds, it was simply a miracle in the eyes of countless people.

Chu Nan shook his head and was not interested in arguing with the other party. He began to focus more on the natural flow of spatial energy around this opponent who called himself Selemo.

Previously, although he had faced many enemies who were of the same level or even much stronger than Selemo, because he did not know the situation of the condensation of the star cloud, he did not pay much attention to these things.

Now that he was at the critical moment of preparing to condense a star cloud, it was not easy for him to encounter such an opponent who clearly revealed the situation of condensing a star cloud. Of course, he had to observe carefully.

Seeing that Chu Nan was ignoring him, Selemo’s expression sank and he sneered, “What? Kid, are you afraid? Let me tell you, I won’t show mercy later. Once I start fighting, I’ll definitely do my best. If you don’t want to be heavily injured or even killed by me later, you can choose to surrender now.”

Chu Nan rolled his eyes and could not be bothered to pay attention to him. He continued to sense the spatial energy fluctuation around him and compared it to the spatial energy fluctuation affected by the enemy’s cultivation method gathered in his mind. He discovered that compared to the situation after the cultivation method was used, although the naturally flowing spatial energy around him was not fast and the frequency was not high, the spatial energy structure was extremely stable. Moreover, it could form a very good trapezoid fluctuation with the space outside the range of the effect of the cultivation method. It did not seem abrupt in the entire energy space and was very natural.

This discovery made Chu Nan understand. If a star cloud condensed in the dantian of a martial artist, because it could directly transform the Internal Breath in the dantian into spatial energy through the star cloud, it would allow the martial artist to combine more closely and naturally with the spatial energy of the outside world. It would no longer seem to have a barrier like when he first grasped spatial energy.

This could be said to be the greatest increase brought to a high-level Void Break Martial Artist by the condensation of the Star Cloud. It was also the most essential increase after becoming a Heaven Control Martial Artist.

However, from this point, it was obvious that a star cloud had not completely condensed in his dantian.

Otherwise, the spatial energy affected around him would not have an obvious trapezoid change like now. Instead, it should be more natural and even prevent Chu Nan from sensing anything special.

Of course, if he could really do this, he should be a Heaven Control expert now.

Seeing that Chu Nan still ignored him and even shook his head when he looked at him with a trace of disdain, Selemo was furious.

However, he was a rare young genius martial artist in the Tulado Republic after all and was not too affected by his mental state. His expression only sank and the Internal Breath in his dantian circulated. The initial condensed star cloud naturally transformed his Internal Breath into spatial energy that was completely under his control and instantly connected with the spatial energy in the outside world without any obstruction or delay.

“Kid who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, I’ll let you see what a true genius is!”

At this moment, the sound of the competition starting sounded. Selemo’s eyes focused and he casually slapped Chu Nan from more than ten meters away.

However, when he slapped out, a large amount of spatial energy in the surrounding space was instantly triggered without any delay. In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a visible light purple palm shadow that flew towards Chu Nan.

Chu Nan raised his eyebrows and the excitement on his face increased.

This guy was actually slightly stronger than he had imagined.

That was great. This competition was finally a little interesting.
