30: Rooster

In another VIP box.

Mayor Qu looked at the three members of the Hai City Team, who had suddenly been magnified by the director, and said with some surprise:

"I didn't expect this Hai City Team to be so reckless. Of all places, they just had to go to that blank area on the map."

"That's a medium-sized wolf den!"

He paused, then added, "Principal Zhou, how confident do you think the three of them are in getting through?"

Zhou Cheng took a sip of the red tea in his cup and shook his head: "Less than ten percent."

"That low?" Mayor Qu's mouth slightly opened in surprise. This was a probability he hadn't expected.

"When we were planning this competition, we considered many, many things: the number of Bibi Wolves, the location of the wolf dens, Life Strength of enemies, and so on."

"Even why we didn't make any markings, we had thoroughly researched."

At this point, Zhou Cheng's expression suddenly turned serious:

"You and I both know that within the entire High Martial Civilization ecosystem, everything appears prosperous and even flourishing, but what about outside the circle?"

"How many of these students have seen the devastation outside the ecosystem?"

"This badge battle is not only the first of its kind, but it was also specifically chosen to take place within the spiritual realm, precisely to let these young flowers experience hardship!"

"We calculated carefully, and even a First-Order Perfection Martial Skill can only ensure self-preservation when facing a medium-sized wolf den."

"And according to the rules, the first round requires all teammates to survive to pass."

At this, Zhou Cheng stopped, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the three who were about to be caught in a desperate struggle.

The meaning was clear: only if the Martial Skills of all three members of the Liangcheng Team were First-Order Perfection could they pass!

Mayor Qu pondered for a moment, then asked, confused:

"But these wolf dens can be completely avoided, right? If you don't actively go there like the Hai City Team, they won't Move freely."

Zhou Cheng smiled slightly upon hearing this: "Theoretically, yes, but in practice, they absolutely cannot be avoided!"

"These wolf dens have no markings. When you use your wristband for navigation, if you don't change the route yourself, it will default to the shortest path."

"Many true badges have been placed by us behind wolf dens that appear to be harmless!"

"If these students simply follow the navigation instinctively, without any thought, they will inevitably pass through a wolf den!"

"The symbolism of the wolf dens is to represent those extremely powerful Alien Civilizations; you must be vigilant and avoid them in advance!"

"I said before that 'the placement of the badges is safe,' I wonder if anyone noticed that point."

"As long as you connect all the routes according to the badges, taking a detour is safe!"

Zhou Cheng took a sip of red tea and then said:

"However, encountering Bibi Wolves does not necessarily mean elimination."

"The number and strength of Bibi Wolves vary; it's possible to encounter only a few stragglers, or even just one."

"It can only be said that the Liangcheng Team had bad luck, encountering a medium-sized wolf den with a full twenty of them!"

"This is where our carefully designed segment comes in, intended to give students a preliminary understanding of the situation outside the ecosystem."

"After all, outside the ecosystem, every second you live, every step you take, must be carefully considered!"

"So that's how it is. It seems your Limit Martial Hall put a lot of thought into this."

Mayor Qu nodded thoughtfully. As the mayor of a central city like Hai City,

his status was higher than that of mayors in other cities, and he knew more things.

He naturally understood the environment that High Martial Civilization currently faced.

But compared to the man in front of him, he was far behind!

On the surface, the other party was merely the principal of Hai City No. 1 High School, but in reality, he was a 'Three-Star Deacon' of the Limit Martial Hall.

Principal was just one of his insignificant identities.

One must know that the Limit Martial Hall was the spear confronting Alien Civilizations; when it came to understanding aliens, no one could surpass the Limit Martial Hall.

He then smiled and said:

"I wonder if Zhou Xiaogu will be able to pass smoothly this time."

Zhou Cheng smiled upon hearing this: "You, fellow, you clearly want to ask about your own son!"

"Don't worry, the Hai City Team has my daughter Zhou Xiaogu and your son Qu Zhongtian, even if they encounter a large wolf den, it won't stop them!"

...Level 1 Spiritual Realm - Forest of Wolves.

Chen Du took the initiative, erupting with full power. His First-Order 98% Perfection Martial Skill, combined with Level 9 Spiritual Power Attachment, was instantly unleashed.

His combat power was comparable to First-Order 99%!

His figure moved, charging out like an untamed wild horse, and with a Golden Drums Fill the Sky Move, he was the first to take down a Bibi Wolf.

This action instantly drew the attention of the remaining 19 Bibi Wolves.

They exchanged glances. Thirteen Bibi Wolves attacked Chen Du, while the remaining six split into two groups.

They pounced on Moreit and Liu Bo, respectively.

Seeing that his objective was achieved, Chen Du felt a little more at ease.

As long as these Bibi Wolves didn't enter berserk mode, the two of them should be able to hold on.

Although Moreit and Liu Bo were both First-Order High-Rank, their Martial Skill levels had not reached 80%.

Every small difference in Martial Skill represented a significant gap, even a 1% difference like between 89% and 90%.

Chen Du's 98% Martial Skill level was already very close to First-Order Limit, and with the Spiritual Power Attachment activated by his Level 9 Mental Energy.

In actual combat, it was not weaker than a First-Order 99% Martial Skill.

Although Mental Energy only undergoes a qualitative change at Level 10, Level 9 Mental Energy can still provide some auxiliary effects.

Liu Bo's Mental Energy Rank was only 1, completely useless. While Moreit's Mental Energy was Level 5, the effect was not obvious.

Martial Skill Perfection means thoroughly mastering these four Moves. When the Martial Skill level reaches First-Order 99%.

These Moves will be used as naturally as one's own hands and feet.

Even holding a hammer, one could still perform the Flowing Light Sword Technique.

And the last 1% is called the Limit because no further progress can be made.

Limit represents the ultimate extent that the Flowing Light Sword Technique can reach.

First-Order Martial Skill levels are divided into:

Beginner (1% ~ 29%), Intermediate (30% ~ 59%), Advanced (60% ~ 89%), Perfection (90% ~ 99%), Limit (100%).

Among them, the gap between Beginner and Intermediate is the smallest, and so on.

Although Perfection and Limit differ by only 1%, the gap is the largest!

Once the Limit is reached, all four Moves will receive a boost, which is considered a qualitative change.

It was only through Ling Yun's explanation that Chen Du realized that a First-Order Limit Martial Skill is one of the necessary conditions to become a Sky Soaring Warrior!

Just as a Martial Artist needs to reach Level 9.9 Life Strength and First-Order Intermediate Martial Skill, these two conditions are similar.

A Sky Soaring Warrior also has three conditions, but Ling Yun did not tell him what the other two were.

After all, Chen Du wasn't even a Martial Artist yet, knowing too much would be useless and would only create distractions.

Chen Du once again performed the Flowing Light Four Moves, taking down two more Bibi Wolves. Having killed these creatures countless times in the Crystal Space.

Chen Du knew their habits and movements like the back of his hand, even without looking, he knew where they would attack from and how they would coordinate.

Combined with his First-Order Perfection Martial Skill and Level 9 Spiritual Power Attachment, it looked like he was cutting vegetables...

General audience seats.

"So strong!"

"This Liangcheng Team actually has a master whose Martial Skill has reached First-Order Perfection!"

The two commentators, who had just been confidently predicting the early end of the Liangcheng Team's journey, were thoroughly proven wrong.

"My goodness! He actually used the fourth Move of the Flowing Light Sword Technique!"

"Holy cow, the sword-wielder of the Liangcheng Team, just like Musashi, has 'chicken luck'!"

"Chicken luck" ( Rooster) is a specialized term from a hundred-person survival game.

It refers to a player in the current game who has the appearance of 'eating chicken'.

For the last person alive, the System will display the congratulatory message 'Great luck and prosperity, tonight we eat chicken'.

This phrase has been adapted by everyone for various scenarios, used to describe someone who might survive to the end or has a chance to win the championship.

In this Hundred Cities Championship, anyone whose Martial Skill reaches First-Order Perfection has a chance to win the championship.

Commonly known as... having 'chicken luck'!
