"Hey, dead donkey, get up quickly and go call Wang Xiaoqiang grandpa!"

"A real man must keep his word."

At this moment, a student from Beginner Class One walked to Liu Kui, who had fallen beneath the stage, and deliberately humiliated him.

Injuries are acceptable, but calling someone grandpa? He'd rather die than do that. Liu Kui lay on the ground pretending to be dead, and Wang Xiaoqiang didn't bother with him. Winning the match, saving face, and dampening the opponent's morale was enough.

Wang Xiaoqiang's magnanimity made the students of Beginner Class Two secretly admire him.

In the first match, Beginner Class One eventually had only Wang Xiaoqiang and another student advance. This student was none other than the chubby student whom Wang Xiaoqiang had slapped flying after he hit Wang Xiaoqiang on the head during their first class.

However, this chubby student had long reformed himself and held Wang Xiaoqiang in high regard. Now, as they both entered the second match, he began chatting with Wang Xiaoqiang, "Brother Wang, advancing with you to the second match is my honor, but I'm afraid I'll be knocked out in the second match. So you are the hope of our Beginner Class One. I hope you can make it to the end."

"I'll definitely make it to the end!" Wang Xiaoqiang patted his shoulder and said, "But Yuu Kun, you are now much more self-aware. I believe you'll achieve great things in the future."

"Brother Wang is right, wishing Brother Wang to take the championship," Yuu Kun said, nodding and bowing.

Wang Xiaoqiang's prediction was correct. In the second match, Yuu Kun was knocked out, leaving Wang Xiaoqiang as the only competitor from Beginner Class One, making him the hope of their class.

All the glory rested on him alone, and everyone hoped he could enter the top ten, or even go further.

In the second match, Wang Xiaoqiang's opponent was a male student from the Intermediate Class. This student had the cultivation base of the Fourth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, and his Body Refining Realm reached the peak of the Organ Refining Realm. But Wang Xiaoqiang was fully confident he could defeat him. The student, however, didn't think so. Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's cultivation at the Third Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, he believed he could outmatch Wang Xiaoqiang.

This student's name was Hu Zhiqiang.

As Hu Zhiqiang and Wang Xiaoqiang stood on the stage facing each other, Hu Zhiqiang looked arrogantly at Wang Xiaoqiang, cocking his neck and said in a slow tone, "Wang Xiaoqiang, right? Your poetry is quite good, and I deeply admire your talent. But your cultivation strength is a bit lacking. Why not concede the match, to spare everyone some discord?"

Hu Zhiqiang said with a harmonious expression as if discussing business with Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Haha, urging me to concede, you sure are something," Wang Xiaoqiang sneered coldly, "Don't waste your efforts, come on, make your move... There's no harmony between us, so it's irrelevant whether there's discord or not..."

Hu Zhiqiang's expression changed, becoming sinister, and said coldly, "Alright then, let's see today whether it's you Wang Xiaoqiang who's stronger, or me Hu Zhiqiang..."

Understanding the advantage of striking first, Hu Zhiqiang did not hesitate and waved his hands. On each arm, two rod-shaped Divine Weapons condensed, with four Divine Weapons fully formed from both arms, intending to defeat Wang Xiaoqiang in one fell swoop.

Wang Xiaoqiang took three steps back, then also waved his hands, Spiritual Power roared as an electric arc-shaped Divine Weapon condensed in each hand, sparks crackled, meeting the opponent's rod-shaped Divine Weapons.

One against two?!

The students below were stunned, feeling Wang Xiaoqiang was too reckless, too overconfident. With Wang Xiaoqiang's strength inferior to the opponent, taking on one against two, surely he was going to lose.

Boom!

Wang Xiaoqiang's two electric arc-shaped Divine Weapons collided with the opponent's four rod-shaped Divine Weapons, causing an explosion. The electric sparks on Wang Xiaoqiang's Divine Weapons passed through to Hu Zhiqiang's hands, paralyzing them and nearly rendering them unusable.

Two forces of Soldier Aura collided violently, exploding at the point of clash between the Divine Weapons. Due to Wang Xiaoqiang's electric arc-shaped Divine Weapons being slightly weaker than the opponent's, the majority of the shockwave blasted towards Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang willed his Three-Layered Golden Shell to completely cover his body, blocking the shockwave.

The Soldier Aura slammed against the Golden Shell, creating a cacophony, but it couldn't break through the Golden Shell.

Just as Hu Zhiqiang was astonished, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't hesitate, absorbing all 60,000,000 Spiritual Springs into his body. His Spiritual Power surged enormously, transforming him instantly from a Third Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage to a Fourth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage. Almost without hesitation, Wang Xiaoqiang condensed two electric arc-shaped Divine Weapons in each hand, with four electric arc-shaped Divine Weapons accompanied by electric sparks, blasting towards Hu Zhiqiang.

What? Fourth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage?

By then, not only Hu Zhiqiang but also the students watching below were shocked. They didn't expect Wang Xiaoqiang to be at the Fourth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Hu Zhiqiang's numbed hands and stunned nerves hadn't reacted when Wang Xiaoqiang's four electric arc-shaped Divine Weapons hit his chest, the electric sparks crackling and rendering his chest charred black, while his body was blasted, pushed flying.

Amid everyone's astonished eyes, Hu Zhiqiang's body traced a graceful arc through the air, crashing heavily beneath the stage. He coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.

Then the audience erupted in applause and cheers. Wang Xiaoqiang, a student from a lower grade, defeating a student from a higher grade, created a stark contrast that sent waves of boiling enthusiasm through the crowd.

Previously, Wang Xiaoqiang was a talent in the eyes of all students, brimming with brilliance, unparalleled in poetry across the academy, unmatched by anyone. After the second match, Wang Xiaoqiang stunned the students again with his cultivation, becoming a public figure. He attracted much attention with his cultivation of the Fourth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage in Qi Practice and the Fourth Layer Vajra Body in Body Refinement. He became a dark horse in this grand event of Yueyang Academy.

The second match eliminated twenty people, with twenty advancing. These twenty would compete in the third match, which would finalize the top ten. Thus, this match was very important.

Two days later, the third match began.

On this day, the long-absent Old Master sat in the center of the judges' platform, watching the match alongside the leaders of Yueyang Academy, showing the importance of this contest.

In this match, Wang Xiaoqiang's opponent was a senior student named Xia Tianhe.

Xia Tianhe had a cultivation base of the Fifth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, and his Body Refining Realm reached the Fourth Layer of the Blood Condensation Realm, showcasing immense strength. Wang Xiaoqiang had the Fourth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage with the Fourth Layer Vajra Body, rendering them equally matched with varying advantages.

The stage they occupied was the Shuai Zi Stage.

Now Wang Xiaoqiang, as a dark horse, attracted much attention, and the Shuai Zi Stage was surrounded by students, including members of the Dragon Child Gang, Ann Miaoyi, and Princess Hua Shao, all gathered beneath the stage.

This match was highly anticipated. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
