Chapter 99 Battle

The local time in West Cloud City was 9 AM. The other semi-finals for those below the age of 20 on West Cloud Planet would begin first.

In the first semi-final, the young martial artist from the Phezzan Autonomous Region, Noir, fought a bitter battle and barely defeated the young martial artist from the Vig Republic, Savannah, and successfully entered the finals.

Regarding this competition, other than the audience from the Phezzan Autonomous Region and the Vig Republic, only a few media outlets made simple reports without attracting much attention.

The only thing that concerned the audience of the Earth Federation was that Noir had successfully entered the finals. This meant that he might obtain the championship and obtain the special reward that the Supremacy Norman had promised-an A-rank martial technique! Although Mu Yutong had also made a promise that as long as a martial artist from the Earth Federation obtained the championship of two groups, he would be able to obtain the A-rank martial technique that he had specially rewarded, regardless of the adult group, only Chu Nan alone had entered the semi-finals in the group below the age of 20.

As for his opponent… he was the strongest among the four participating martial artists in the semifinals, Maruk.

Could Chu Nan create a miracle and defeat Maruk to enter the finals?

“I can’t say that it’s impossible, but… the possibility is minimal.”

Rengal sighed and shook his head. Although he did not say anything, anyone could tell that he did not have any hope. “I’ve seriously seen the recording of every match before Maruk. It can be seen that he has always been holding back. His true strength is probably much stronger than what he shows.”

Regarding the popular semi-final of the group below the age of 20 today, the Federation’s Information Martial Arts World Channel would naturally broadcast it live. As usual, Rengal was invited to be the competition commentator.

The host beside him was slightly shocked, “But the strength that Maruk displayed in the previous competition has already been rated as the lowest second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. If he’s still hiding his strength, doesn’t that mean that his true strength has indeed reached the third-stage Internal Breath Realm?”

“The possibility is more than 90%.”

no

Rengal said this because he was already certain.

“As for Chu Nan… to be honest, it’s already very unexpected for him to be able to enter the semi-finals. We can all see that he has actually not reached the level of an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, and he has not even reached the perfection of the Overlord Body. The reason why he was able to defeat several Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists in a row was only because his martial arts talent was too high and his combat awareness was extremely powerful. It had even completely surpassed the extent that he should be at his age. However, it’s already extremely difficult for these things to help him defeat a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. It’s really impossible for him to defeat Maruk who has the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist.”

The host was silent for a moment.

This was already the second time that Rengal had expressed that it was almost impossible for Chu Nan to defeat Maruk. It proved that this famous martial artist from the federation had already come to a conclusion about the outcome of this competition.

However, one could not say that in the program, so the host could only force a smile.

“Although on the surface, Chu Nan’s strength is indeed inferior to Maruk, he has already created a miracle of winning against the strong in the previous few competitions. Then, let us look forward to whether he can also create a miracle in this competition!”

Rengal smiled bitterly.

A miracle?

Miracles were also built on the basis of strength.

Although Chu Nan’s true strength far surpassed his surface strength, no matter how strong his true strength was, he could at most barely defeat a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. Moreover, he had more or less made use of the other party’s underestimate of his opponent, so how could he defeat a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist who was much stronger?

Chu Nan slowly walked up the arena and the gazes of the audience were focused on him.

Due to the fact that Chu Nan had just taken a shower and changed his clothes, he felt much more refreshed.

Most importantly, there was no anxiety on his face. Instead, he had been maintaining his calm and composure, and he even had a smile on his face.

This made the Earth Federation audience below the stage feel much more at ease. Even if Chu Nan’s strength was really as those martial arts experts had said and was far inferior to Maruk, he could lose in the competition but not his spirit.

If he looked timid and nervous before the battle began, it would be too embarrassing.

The guy opposite him was from the Kingdom of Kexley. No matter what, he could not embarrass the Earth Federation in front of him.

“Chu Nan, you can do it!”

A shout suddenly sounded from below the stage.

Immediately, loud cheers sounded.

“You can do it!”

“Fight well!”

“Kill the trash from Kexley!”

Chu Nan turned around and glanced at the audience below the stage as he smiled bitterly in his heart.

They could cheer for him and make him fight well. He could appreciate their good intentions, but as for ‘Kill the trash from Kexley!’…

Not to mention that he did not have the confidence to defeat Maruk, even if he did, he could not kill in the competition, right?

However, no matter what, Chu Nan was still very thankful for the audience’s actions of cheering for him. After thinking for a moment, he raised his hand and waved it below the stage, immediately causing a crazy cheer.

“Heh, kid, this is a competition. Do you think you’re participating in a performance?”

Maruk, who was already waiting on the stage, could not help but mock when he saw Chu Nan’s actions.

“You people from the Earth Federation like to have unrealistic fantasies. Do they really think you can defeat me?”

Before Chu Nan could respond, Maruk shook his head.

“No, these guys clearly don’t think so. I specially looked at the Milky Way Network yesterday. Be it the media of your Earth Federation or the ordinary civilians, none of them think you can win. What do you think?”

Chu Nan glanced at him and felt that it was funny.

“I really can’t tell that you’re such a guy who likes to talk nonsense. How do you know if you can’t win or not?”

Maruk’s expression changed slightly and he sneered.

“Kid, I warned you before that it’s best to be eliminated in advance so as to not collide with me. When I think of how you actually came to be my opponent without knowing your place, I’ll give you another chance. If you immediately choose to surrender, you won’t be tortured anymore. Otherwise…”

Maruk stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, revealing a cruel smile.

“Don’t regret it when you can’t stand the pain later.”

Chu Nan looked at Maruk in confusion. He still could not understand why this guy had always been so hostile towards him.

However, this problem was not important now. He moved his feet away and assumed a posture as he stared at Maruk intently.

This guy’s true strength was not obvious. It was best to observe his various statistics first.
