131: Chapter 131 If you can get past me, then we can talk about the future!

What did they see?

Fighting a Tier 5 Level 1 opponent at Tier 4 Level 1, with such a massive gap, it should have been a crushing display of power.

In fact, it was somewhat crushing.

Only... wasn't the target mistaken?

"Even if contestant Wang Yue was not prepared, he should not have been defeated this quickly!?"

"Rigged, this fucking has to be rigged."

"Match-fixing, refund our money!"

"Shen Xingchen's burst just now... doesn't seem weaker than an ordinary Tier 5."

Someone raised a rational point.

There was no lack of high-level martial artists present, and they still had that much discernment.

"Right, Shen Xingchen's martial arts techniques seem quite extraordinary, and his mastery is extremely high."

"Shen Xingchen's spiritual energy refinement level far surpasses ordinary people. Even the red source crystal appears slightly inferior before him."

"..."

Senior Sister Youyou covered her mouth exaggeratedly.

As a student of Fengyun University, she naturally knew Senior Wang Yue's strength.

He was a proud talent ranked in the top twenty of the academy, yet he was defeated so easily by Shen Xingchen?

Shen Xingchen was only at Tier 4 Level 1...

What kind of existence was the boy she casually hit on at the high-speed rail station back then!?

...

The participating team members of Fengyun University had originally been lazy and very relaxed.

Until Shen Xingchen made his move.

Everyone among them instantly straightened up, their faces filled with disbelief.

"What is Wang Yue... doing?" a team member asked.

"I don't get it."

"Did he fail to react in time?"

"..."

Captain Gao Cheng looked at Shen Xingchen with a solemn gaze, saying nothing.

...

The rest area of Xinghai Martial Arts.

Although Yeqiao appeared calm on the surface, he was equally shocked.

This classmate Shen Xingchen's thunder tier was indeed very high, coupled with that Heaven-rank thunder technique, he actually possessed such terrifying combat power.

His Heaven-rank thunder martial arts technique probably reached the state of great accomplishment, right?

Elder Xuan's vision was truly vicious and discerning!

If that old man really managed to obtain this body, would he still be able to suppress him?

...

On the side of the Shangjing University team members.

Liu Yuming, Lin Su, and the others all looked at the arena in disbelief.

At first, when Shen Xingchen proposed participating in the singles tournament, they had all been dismissive, and only Director Ren Hong strongly supported Shen Xingchen.

At this moment, it made them look a bit dazed.

Liu Yuming looked at Lin Su: "Didn't you go on a mission with Shen Xingchen? Has his strength always been this strong?"

The shock on Lin Su's face had not yet faded: "At that time... he seemed to be only at Tier 3 Level 7, with Tier 4 combat power."

Liu Yuming questioned: "You mean that a month ago, he was still only at Tier 3 Level 7?"

Having Tier 4 combat power at Tier 3 Level 7 was still within a reasonable range.

However, to rise to Tier 4 in just one month, is this really human?

Liu Fei looked at that figure on the arena with a complex gaze.

Those of them who were Tier 5 senior students always used to look down upon Tier 3 and Tier 4 students with a superior attitude.

But that Shen Xingchen was different.

Shen Xingchen seemed to be catching up at a desperate speed, unstoppable.

...

Even the referee was somewhat dazed.

He had just responded to that contestant's question.

Turning his head back, the match was already over.

He said somewhat stiffly: "The match... is over, Shen Xingchen wins!"

The referee's words ignited the entire audience once again.

"Turns out my eyes weren't playing tricks on me..."

"Shangjing University actually has a proud talent of this level?"

"When he advances to Tier 5, who could be a match for him in a single move?"

"..."

Jiang Qingyao held a pair of binoculars in her hand, looking towards the arena.

The corners of her mouth curled up, looking somewhat proud.

As if she were the one enjoying the cheers of the crowd.

...

The match continued.

Lin Su and Du Fei's singles match.

Tier 5 Level 2 against Tier 5 Level 5.

Shangjing University lost this without any suspense.

Then it was Liu Yuming versus the opponent's captain, Gao Cheng.

When entering the arena initially, Gao Cheng still had an arrogant and conceited appearance.

After experiencing Shen Xingchen's first battle, he had clearly restrained himself a lot.

Gao Cheng stepped onto the arena: "No matter what other methods you have, it cannot change the fact that this match is about to be lost to us Fengyun."

"The more humble a person is, the more they want to prove themselves," Liu Yuming sarcastically said.

This sentence seemed to poke at Gao Cheng's sore spot: "Do you really think that relying on that Tier 4 Level 1 kid can change the outcome of the match?"

"Before seeing you, I still doubted him. After seeing you, I feel that classmate Shen certainly can," Liu Yuming smiled and said.

Gao Cheng said in a cold voice: "Let's see the real deal with our hands!"

The two of them seemed to have reinforcement-type Talent Divine Abilities.

The originally scholarly-looking Liu Yuming instantly grew several circles larger after using his Talent Divine Ability.

Such a refined-looking face, placed within a rugged body, looked so out of place.

Bang——

The battle between the two broke out at the touch of a hair, colliding directly with fists hitting flesh, filled with a barbaric aura.

The brick surface of the arena was smashed with several dents.

This made the onlookers feel gratified and thrilling to watch.

In many matches, the contestants' Talent Divine Abilities were rather bizarre, far less satisfying to watch than this kind of close-combat melee.

"Liu Yuming should be stronger, right?"

Someone put forward a view.

On the arena, it was also a situation where Liu Yuming was attacking and Gao Cheng was defending.

"It's obvious Gao Cheng is looking for an opportunity!"

Someone retorted.

Sure enough, seizing the moment when Liu Yuming's fist missed, Gao Cheng suddenly struck towards the opponent's waist.

The waist was the core area for human power exertion.

If the waist suffered heavy damage, combat capability would be instantly lost.

Liu Yuming seemed to have been prepared long ago. The moment his punch ended, he actively retreated.

Such a fierce collision made both of them fight with real fire.

Yet Liu Yuming could still remain so calm while observing the opponent's details.

This made everyone present sigh in admiration: As expected of a student cultivated by Shangjing University.

After another round of exchanges.

Both of them showed signs of exhaustion.

"If I can't even defeat a crippled team like you, how can I cross into Tier 9 in this lifetime!" Gao Cheng's eyes burned with intense fighting spirit.

He suddenly burst out with another wave of momentum.

This was already squeezing out his own potential.

The two were indeed neck and neck.

Liu Yuming likewise rallied his spirit once again.

His scholarly face had already become ferocious. If one recalled his previous appearance at this moment, it would even be hard to imagine this was the same person.

They would unconsciously exclaim: So Liu Yuming had such a side to him.

The remaining match was more of a contest of willpower.

Both sides traded punch for punch.

Boom——

After another clash.

The two of them simultaneously retreated a few steps, their eyes already beginning to blur.

Liu Yuming forcefully mustered his strength to throw out the final punch:

"Get past me before talking about the future!"

Compared to Liu Yuming at his peak, this punch could be said to be nothing at all.

But for the two of them who were already exhausted, this was the punch that decided the victory and defeat.

This punch told everyone.

Shangjing University was still the strongest academy in Shangjing City!
