LRAB Chapter 89 Growth
Chapter 89 Growth
Fang Ping, standing to the side, looked at Lu Hao with dissatisfaction.
After all, Lu Hao treated him the same way, and he treated Zhao Xuemei the same way. Zhao Xuemei's combat strength and cultivation level are now far superior to Fang Ping's.
As it turns out, Lu Hao had high hopes for Zhao Xuemei, and I'll show him that he was wrong when I grow up.
Hmph, Lu Hao and the Great Lion both look down on me now, but I'll show them my blindness once I become a Grandmaster.
Fang Ping thought to himself.
Lu Hao didn't pay attention to Fang Ping's situation. He chatted with Fu Changding next to him for a few more minutes.
After all, Fu Changding had been rarely seen since the entrance exam and the division challenge. Now, Fu Changding had reached the high level of the first rank, and with the help of the mission this month,
If someone can reach the peak of the first rank before the exchange competition, they can be considered a genius.
"Lu Hao, I'm sorry, I was too arrogant in the past."
Just then, Yang Xiaoman, who was standing nearby, walked over with Chen Yunxi and said to Lu Hao.
Lu Hao looked at Yang Xiaoman with slight surprise. Ever since the subject-specific challenge, Yang Xiaoman had been terrified of Lu Hao, like a mouse seeing a cat.
They never made direct contact; if she hadn't taken the initiative, Lu Hao would have almost forgotten about it. It seems the past month has been quite a test for her.
"It's alright. Since you already understand, I won't say anything more."
After a few awkward words, Yang Xiaoman left.
For the past semester, she had been afraid of being targeted by Lu Hao. After all, Lu Hao was already a third-rank student when he entered the university, so it wouldn't be easy for him to target someone like her who was only a first-rank student.
The reality was not what she expected. Lu Hao never paid much attention to her again until this mission, when he witnessed the life-and-death struggles between martial artists, which made Yang Xiaoman grow a lot.
……
Soon after, several mentors came over, including Huang Jing.
As soon as he entered, Huang Jing said coldly, "Quiet!"
Everyone fell silent instantly.
Huang Jing looked around, not speaking to anyone else first, but staring at Zhao Lei and saying, "Zhao Lei, because of your recklessness, Lu Kunqiang sacrificed himself during the mission. 30% of all your earnings will be deducted and used to compensate Lu Kunqiang's family. Do you have any objections?"
"no."
Zhao Lei shook his head.
"For other team members, 10% of their earnings will be deducted as compensation!"
In Zhao Lei's team, some were unwilling to accept defeat, while others remained silent.
Based on their earnings this time, even without the first-place prize, the reward will likely be over 350 credits.
Zhao Lei's 30%, plus the others' 10%, will result in a deduction of at least 60 credits.
Although some people felt that it was the mentor's responsibility for not providing assistance, no one dared to say it, nor was it appropriate to say it.
The mentors didn't say they would definitely save them; they had warned them before the mission that mentors weren't omnipotent and that people might die during the mission.
Regardless of whether they were satisfied or not, Huang Jing continued, "I think everyone has gained a lot and had many feelings this time."
Some students sacrificed their lives during the mission. This is not an isolated case. This is how it is for martial artists. They struggle on the edge of life and death.
Some people might be dissatisfied, asking why the mentor didn't save us?
I don't want to explain anything. If you're practicing martial arts with the expectation that someone will always come to your rescue, then you're making a mistake!
Next, Huang Jing announced the total credits for all teams. Fang Ping unsurprisingly came in first place. It remains to be seen whether he will continue his business of reselling pills.
……
Two days later, Lu Hao's left shoulder finally recovered, and he had enough kill points. It was time to start tempering his muscle and flesh. Tempering his entire body's muscle and flesh was a relatively slow process.
Even if Lu Hao has kill points to recover his health and quickly temper his body, it would probably still take about a month.
So Lu Hao began to focus on his seclusion, spending all his time tempering his muscles and blood, and occasionally going to the training room to practice combat techniques to maintain control of his qi and blood.
While Lu Hao was in seclusion, things were in an uproar outside.
Given the dire situation in the underground world and considering various factors, the Ministry of Education has decided to gradually reveal the battles and brutality of martial arts to the public, hence the extensive publicity surrounding the exchange competition held at the beginning of the year.
……
As time goes by, the National Freshman Exchange Competition is becoming more and more popular!
"The first-ever nationwide open martial arts competition!"
"The first person to have over ten million new students!"
"The battle between Magic Martial Arts and Beijing Martial Arts!"
"..."
Various controversial topics are constantly being raised.
Jingwu and Mowu have been fighting for many years. Although everyone says that Jingwu is the best, the people from the South don't agree.
I agree; I think Magic Martial Arts is no worse than Beijing Martial Arts.
This was also the first time the two schools had publicly held an exchange competition.
Therefore, whether they are students just starting out in martial arts or ordinary people, they are all full of expectations for this competition. Unfortunately, what they don't know is that they are about to witness a cruel scene in the martial arts world.
……
In mid-December, the Ministry of Education released the information to the public!
The National Freshman Exchange Competition is now officially open to the public!
Meanwhile, the location has also been officially confirmed: Magic Martial Arts Stadium!
The public's enthusiasm was completely ignited, and tickets for the Shanghai Stadium were in high demand and short supply. At the same time, the event was also broadcast live online for the general public to watch.
This marks the first time that the martial arts have been revealed to ordinary people, and the process will continue gradually until the underground cave is fully open to the public.
The participating students were also ignited by this enthusiasm, all wanting to achieve good results in this exchange competition, since no one can escape worldly fame and fortune.
……
December passed in the blink of an eye.
In the training room, Tang Feng announced the list of participants for the exchange competition. Fang Ping was in the official team, while Zhao Xuemei was in the reserve team.
Zhao Xuemei spoke up directly, "Teacher, I want to challenge Tang Songting!"
Tang Songting frowned, but showed no fear, and said in a deep voice, "I accept the challenge!"
After a series of injuries that were exchanged for injuries, Zhao Xuemei managed to make it into the official team through sheer hard work.
……
On January 2nd, Tang Feng and Bai Ruoxi led a team to East China Normal University.
They are preparing to play a few warm-up matches before the main tournament.
At East China Normal University, Magic Martial Arts University ultimately won four out of five matches.
On the Huazhong Normal University side, only Chen Hongwei has demonstrated his strength.
Whether there are still hidden students who haven't made a move is currently unknown.
However, Magic Martial Arts University doesn't care. The Eight Schools Alliance sent a total of 10 people, and Huazhong Normal University will probably only send one or two in the end.
Chen Hongwei's failure to advance suggests that Huazhong Normal University has hidden, even stronger students. His advancement, on the other hand, would simply mean that's the state of Huazhong Normal University.
Since Chen Hongwei has been hiding his strength, it means that he is very likely to participate in the competition; otherwise, there would be no need for him to do so. From this, we can deduce something.
On January 3rd, none of the members of Magic Martial Arts participated in the battle.
On January 4th, Luo Yichuan took the lead this time, taking everyone to South China University of Science and Technology.
Zhao Xuemei, a member of the main team, went up for a match and almost kicked the freshman from South China University of Science and Technology through the throat, which scared many ordinary students from South China University of Science and Technology into screaming.
At South China University of Science and Technology, the Magic Warriors won three out of five matches.
After two warm-up matches, the school will not arrange any more.
Take a break and relax for the next few days.
