Chapter 194: Graceful Handsome Youth, Today in Heavenly Man
Chapter 194: Graceful Handsome Youth, Today in Heavenly Man
The senior instructors in the audience were all full of praise. These two students were indeed peerless geniuses!
Their martial skills were proficient, their cultivation profound, and their grasp of the battle was exceptionally sharp.
What a fierce competition!
Boom...
The sound of collision echoed as the spear and sword clashed, and their four long legs also began to attack each other in the air.
Both held their breath, neither willing to concede.
Boom, boom, boom...
After a series of dozens of clashes, the two landed on the platform, transforming into a white ball, rolling back and forth.
The platform, which had cost the Heavenly Man Martial Academy a fortune to build, trembled continuously during their battle, like a ship in the midst of a tempest.
Wu Zhi Bing let out a loud shout as he struck.
Shui Lian Jiang also roared, and the spear and sword clashed.
After a teeth-grinding sound, the two weapons simultaneously flew out of their hands.
One flew east, the other west.
Two instructors from the viewing platform leaped up, catching the weapons to prevent them from flying out and injuring others.
On the platform, the two were already engaged in a fistfight.
Apparently, the weapons couldn't decide the victor.
They switched to fighting with fists and feet.
Bi Changhong couldn't help but sigh. He knew that if calculated strictly, Wu Zhi Bing had already lost.
It was just that there wasn't such a rule.
Wu Zhi Bing's spear weighed 375 pounds, while Shui Lian Jiang's sword was only 8.75 pounds. Despite such a disparity in weight, they still fought to a draw, clearly indicating that Shui Lian Jiang's cultivation surpassed Wu Zhi Bing's!
At this moment, without weapons, Wu Zhi Bing might be at a disadvantage in the brawl.
On the platform, the two exchanged blows. It was evident that without the support of weapons, Wu Zhi Bing's defense was slightly more challenging.
Shui Lian Jiang instantly brimmed with confidence.
He could sense the other's strength, which was slightly inferior to his own.
Ha ha, he laughed loudly, "Wu Zhi Bing, you should admit defeat early. Your White Cloud Martial Academy can't beat our Heavenly Man Martial Academy!"
"Not necessarily!!"
Wu Zhi Bing clenched his teeth, not relaxing at all.
Shui Lian Jiang attacked and laughed, "Do you know what Heavenly Man means?"
Wu Zhi Bing focused on attacking, not speaking.
Shui Lian Jiang laughed, "Heavenly Man, as the name implies, is someone who can ride the clouds and soar through the sky. In other words, a Heavenly Man stands above the white clouds.
As these words came out, the faces of the White Cloud Martial Academy members paled.
Even the members of other martial academies showed slight displeasure.
This Shui Lian Jiang was too outspoken.
How could he speak so bluntly in public?
Even the instructors of the Heavenly Man Martial Academy looked a bit displeased.
On the platform, Wu Zhi Bing's face indeed changed. He clenched his teeth and roared, "Heavenly Man is not above all. Above Heavenly Man, the white clouds still float!"
Wu Zhi Bing abruptly changed his fighting style, going on the offensive without defending.
He roared, "Heavenly Man has a life limit. Heavenly Man can die! But in this eternal universe, at any time, there are white clouds!"
"White clouds forever!"
Bang! The two exchanged a punch, and then, as if this punch was just the beginning, bang, bang, bang, they exchanged a series of punches.
Blood seeped from Wu Zhi Bing's fist.
Shui Lian Jiang's hand was slightly swollen.
But Wu Zhi Bing immediately charged again.
Another series of fierce exchanges followed.
Bang! Shui Lian Jiang's punch landed on Wu Zhi Bing's face, and blood splattered. The handsome face that could drive countless girls crazy was now unrecognizable.
However, Wu Zhi Bing's punch also landed on Shui Lian Jiang's eye.
An instant panda eye appeared.
Both retreated and then charged again.
Bang! They collided once more, and Wu Zhi Bing's face took another punch, but he countered with a punch to Shui Lian Jiang's right eye!
Bang, bang, bang...
The two exchanged blows.
"I won't lose!" Shui Lian Jiang roared.
"I must win!" Wu Zhi Bing roared.
Bang, bang...
A series of heavy blows, and the two separated again. Now, both their faces were unrecognizable.
The graceful youth at the start of the battle now had a face covered in blood and bruises.
Mo Gaiyun and the others stood up, watching the platform with reverence.
Wu Zhi Bing, from a noble lineage, held a high position, currently serving in the Grand Hall, so he rarely appeared in the martial academy. In that place, he was also considered high-ranking and influential.
His appearance was handsome, and his demeanor was like ice.
No one expected him to fight so fiercely.
He completely disregarded his image, solely fighting for the honor of his martial academy.
At no other moment did the White Cloud Martial Academy rise so quickly in the hearts of Mo Gaiyun and the others.
Fighting for the academy's honor!
His image was insignificant!
Wu Zhi Bing taught Mo Gaiyun and the White Cloud Martial Academy students a lesson with his actions. The battle on the platform continued.
But it was evident that both were at their limits.
Wu Zhi Bing's situation was slightly worse. If he continued, defeat was certain.
In another exchange, Wu Zhi Bing seemed to make a slight mistake, and Shui Lian Jiang skillfully seized the opportunity, grabbing his left arm and twisting it behind his back, capturing him.
Breathing heavily with satisfaction, he said, "Wu Zhi Bing, admit defeat."
A proud smile appeared on Wu Zhi Bing's bloodied face, and he suddenly roared, turning his body and twisting his own arm with all his might, breaking it!
Turning around, he unleashed all his strength, kicking Shui Lian Jiang in the stomach with thunderous force!
Shui Lian Jiang, holding his half-arm that had been pulled by Wu Zhi Bing, was shocked and flew backward.
The platform was far away, and the crowd was stunned.
Wu Zhi Bing's expression was one of shock.
He never expected that Wu Zhi Bing, who always valued perfection, would do such a thing.
Blood splattered everywhere, and Wu Zhi Bing roared to the sky.
His face was fierce and arrogant.
His left arm hung limply, twisted like a braided bun.
Several instructors rushed to the platform, and medical staff also flew to the stage. Everyone was shocked!
No one had expected that the quiet, refined, cold, and proud Wu Zhi Bing would win this battle in such a way.
His arm was obviously useless.
Even with the use of Heaven's Treasure to regrow limbs, it would not be possible to restore the original arm in a short time.
Under the gaze of the crowd, the youth as pure as snow stood on the stage and announced loudly, "I, Wu Zhi Bing, have studied at White Cloud Martial Academy for five years, and at this moment, these five years have been fulfilled!"
"On behalf of White Cloud, I trample upon Heaven's Man! I've lost for four years, and today, I finally understand!"
He shouted, "I, Wu Zhi Bing, am grateful for White Cloud's nurturing!"
He bowed.
But then, he fainted.
"Quick, take him for treatment!"
Huang Yifan was so anxious that he almost had a heart attack. "Where's the Rebirth Pill? Where's the Rebirth Pill? Hurry up and bring it!"
At this moment, taking the pill would be much better than waiting.
An elder from the Heavenly Man Martial Academy flew over and handed him a brocade box, "The Rebirth Pill! Quick, give it to him!"
"Thank you!"
"No need for thanks, we must save a child like this, no matter what!"
"Yes!"
...
White Cloud Martial Academy won.
They advanced to the finals.
Mo Gaiyun and the others remained silent.
The impact of Wu Zhi Bing's severed arm shocked the five of them, leaving a deep impression that lingered for a long time. Wu Zhi Bing's final roar also echoed in their minds.
After a long while, Yu Zhongge let out a long sigh, "Admiration! Respect! I bow to you!"
Qiu Yunshang's eyes sparkled with stars, "So manly!"
Mo Gaiyun also expressed his admiration, "Martial arts, my role model! I, Mo Gaiyun, have never admired anyone except for Fang Che, but today, I am convinced by Wu Zhi Bing!"
"This is the spirit of White Cloud."
"It's just a pity that Fang Che isn't here today. Otherwise, he would have seen this."
Mo Gaiyun sighed.
"Next, it's our turn."
Yu Zhongge said, "I've calculated that as long as we don't draw against Heavenly Man Martial Academy, we still have a chance to win. At least we can make it to the finals."
At the mention of this, the crowd fell silent.
"It's just a pity that Fang Che isn't here!"
This was Jing Shuanggao's sigh.
They all knew that against Heavenly Man Martial Academy, they had no chance of winning.
Among the five of them, Mo Gaiyun had the highest cultivation level at the fourth rank of the General level.
However, the lowest rank in Heavenly Man Martial Academy was also the fourth rank of the General level, while the other four were at the fifth and sixth ranks, and one at the seventh rank.
This battle was impossible to fight.
"Even if we can't win, we must fight!"
Yu Zhongge hummed, "We might be beaten by others, but we can't let ourselves be defeated without a fight! We can settle for second place, but we can't back down!"
Mo Gaiyun clenched his teeth, "That's right, just like Wu Zhi Bing today, what if we can't win? We can still fight with all our might!"
They prepared on their side.
Dong Yun Yu had already woken up and heard the news of White Cloud Martial Academy's victory, and finally fainted again.
This time, he fainted with relief.
They quickly carried him away for treatment.
All five of them needed treatment.
The instructors smiled bitterly, "It seems like the finals will have to be delayed for a few days."
Most of them were severely injured, including the opposing team, which was also full of heavily injured members. Without a few days of rest, they couldn't fight.
"Next is the first-year semifinals. The draw will determine the opponents. Team captains, take your positions."
The announcement rang out.
Yu Zhongge, as the team captain, went to draw the lots.
After opening it, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Great Transformation Martial Academy!"
Mo Gaiyun and the others also felt a bit relieved.
On the other hand, the people from Great Transformation Martial Academy and West Continent Martial Academy looked a bit gloomy.
The strongest were Heavenly Man Martial Academy and White Cloud Martial Academy.
They knew that against these two academies, they had no chance of winning.
Their only hope was that one of them would draw against the other, so that one of their academies could at least take second place.
But now, it was clear that things wouldn't go as they wished.
They could only fight for third place.
The battle began.
As expected, White Cloud Martial Academy's Celestial Sovereign team won after a round of fighting and advanced to the finals with Heavenly Man Martial Academy.
Below, the cheers and boos merged into one.
The name Celestial Sovereign team was indeed very provocative.
It didn't sit well with everyone.
A few young children, with unshorn hair and still smelling of milk, dared to call themselves Celestial Sovereigns. They truly didn't know the height of heaven.
However, Mo Gaiyun received a different treatment from the crowd.
The red headscarf tied around his head was indeed eye-catching.
The three words 'Beyond Fang Che' had now become a mystery to all the spectators.
What was this guy doing with this scarf? Who was Fang Che? Was he just being silly?
Mo Gaiyun had never explained, which only added to everyone's curiosity.
The next day was the first-year finals!
...
Early morning.
The sun had not yet risen, and the morning dew still glistened.
Fang Che, dressed in black, with a face like jade, a tall figure, and a starry glow, walked into the Heavenly Capital with an air of charm.
A graceful young man arrived in the Heavenly Capital.
