Chapter 65
"One hundred thousand Blue Star coins?"
Gu Qianghan, sitting in the lower row, had his eyes shining, and he turned his head: "Sister, if I get it, I’ll share half with you, if you get it, you share half with me, how about that?"
"This is enough for my pocket money for half a year," Gu Qianghan looked at Lin Lanyue with great expectation.
Lin Lanyue glanced at Gu Qianghan: "Do you think you can get it?"
Gu Qianghan choked.
"Li Yuan, based on your spear technique skills, you should have a chance to rush into the top ten, but remember not to be reckless," Lin Lanyue looked at Li Yuan: "Living longer is better than killing more, the score is higher."
"Mm," Li Yuan nodded lightly.
Top ten?
"Five hundred thousand Blue Star coins." Wu Dongdong, sitting in the back two rows, was also extremely excited, waving her hand and shouting: "Sister Yueyue, plus the hundreds of thousands of pocket money I saved, it’s enough for me to buy the flying motorcycle I showed you last time."
"Last time I pestered my dad, he wouldn't buy it for me."
"I’ve decided, I’m going to take the five hundred thousand and buy it secretly!!!"
Not just Li Yuan and the others, hearing the bonus amount, the vast majority of students were moved.
Five hundred thousand Blue Star coins?
Even one hundred thousand Blue Star coins was a huge sum in the eyes of most high school seniors.
Especially those students whose family background was similar to Li Yuan’s, or even worse than Li Yuan’s.
"One hundred thousand Blue Star coins?"
"Five hundred thousand Blue Star coins?" The student named "Tian Dazhuang," who looked ordinary, had red eyes.
He muttered to himself: "No wonder before boarding the aircraft, when the director sent me off, he specifically told me that this time is a good opportunity for me to make money."
"The first test has five hundred thousand Blue Star coins."
"According to the itinerary, will there be rewards later? Maybe," Tian Dazhuang muttered in his heart: "In these few years, the country has rewarded me with millions of Blue Star coins."
"In the half year of body, mind, and weapon unity, my physical cultivation has become faster, but after all, my starting point was too low, plus I only awakened martial arts spirituality in my sophomore year; now, my physical fitness is only Level 8.5."
"My physical fitness is poor, wait until actual combat, I probably won't get first place, skills are my biggest advantage."
"Cage melee, I’m determined to take first place," Tian Dazhuang stared at the arena silently.
He was from a remote mountainous area.
In this era, the transportation, water conservancy, and many other facilities in the mountainous areas were already very convenient, and there were massive subsidies for poor families... but the wealth gap was unavoidable.
Tian Dazhuang was from the most bottom-level mountainous family; his grandparents were old, his father was seriously ill, his mother had passed away from illness, and he had a younger brother... From junior high school, he gradually revealed his terrifying talent in martial arts skills.
Entering high school, after awakening martial arts spirituality, Tian Dazhuang’s progress speed became even faster.
The various bonuses and rewards from the school and the country became more and more, and after awakening martial arts spirituality in his sophomore year, he was directly specially recruited by the Martial Arts Hall, truly changing the fate of his family.
He was a martial arts genius rarely seen in the entire school and even the entire county for decades.
He also carried the expectations of many people.
"Fate!"
"My fate must be grasped in my own hands," Tian Dazhuang’s eyes were full of longing: "The principal and the director care about me so much, I must make some achievements."
The county-level high school he was in was very ordinary, so this time he was the only one invited.
Many people knew his name.
But few recognized his face!
"Five hundred thousand Blue Star coins?" The girl named Wang Yu had burning eyes.
She didn't care at all about the eyes of some boys stealing glances at her.
Wang Yu was used to such eyes.
"Must get it, this way, I can change to a house for my family sooner."
"Mom and Dad won't have to squeeze into a small room to rest."
Thousands of students had their emotions stirred, looking at the man in the black martial arts suit quite excitedly.
Those who came here were all heaven’s pride.
Even if they knew that their peers were not weak, subconsciously, they would be full of confidence in themselves.
"Besides cash rewards."
The man in black, the host above the arena, was still shouting excitedly: "Besides that, dozens of observers from the five prestigious universities are already observing you in another virtual space."
"They are looking forward to your performance."
"For ordinary students, their college entrance exam is in June," the man in black’s voice was surging: "But for you elite students."
"The college entrance exam, from today, from this moment, has already begun," the man in black suddenly punched, trying his best to bring the atmosphere to a climax.
People are easily stirred.
Especially young people.
The top management organized this invitation event, naturally hoping to see the best performance of the participating students.
"Want to get the special training contract from the five prestigious universities in advance?"
"Want to get a large amount of Blue Star coin rewards?"
"Want to get the school’s recognition as quickly as possible after entering the martial arts university and get more cultivation resources?" The man in black waved his arms, constantly turning to look at different students, shouting excitedly: "Then, today, fight with your life."
"Burn your passion and hot blood, and show your strength to your heart’s content."
Even.
Inside the entire combat space, accompanied by the host’s roar, cheers and shouts erupted directly.
These cheers and shouts were not from the thousands of students.
But the music effects that came with this combat space, making many students feel their blood boiling.
"I announce, cage melee, the survivor wins."
"First match," the man in black armor waved his hand suddenly, his voice resounding like thunder: "Start now!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The first match, 200 students were randomly selected.
Instantly disappeared from their respective seats.
"Gu Qiang was selected," Li Yuan immediately discovered that Gu Qianghan, who was sitting in the front row, had disappeared.
"Tian Dazhuang is also not there, was he also selected for the first match?"
"And Tan Bing," Li Yuan remembered among the dozen experts Lin Lanyue mentioned to him.
In the first match, three big experts were selected.
"It’s pseudo-random, and it’s based on the January adjustment exam scores," Lin Lanyue, sitting to the side, said in a low voice: "Above, it should be based on the skill single-item scores of the January adjustment exam, first grouped to a certain extent and then randomly screened."
"Ensuring that the strength distribution of the participants in each match is close."
Everyone waited patiently.
...Thirty seconds later, the selection of weapons ended.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a huge roaring sound echoing.
A full 200 people, holding weapons and armor, appeared at the edge of the arena at the same time, forming a huge circle.
Everyone had two people beside them, very fair.
"Mm?"
Li Yuan’s eyes moved, and he couldn't help but say: "Beside Tian Dazhuang, it’s Gu Qiang, seems like he has bad luck."
On the arena.
Gu Qiang was holding two short axes and looking around; he was stretching out a short axe to wave, provoking Tian Dazhuang, who was holding a mountain-opening knife and had no expression on his left side.
"Gu Qiang, why is he deliberately provoking Tian Dazhuang?" Li Yuan looked surprised: "Gu Qiang’s skills also reached the full mark level?"
"No, his martial arts skills are only at the level of 350-plus," Lin Lanyue shook her head calmly.
"Look before the college entrance exam, whether he can break through to 360."
"Then how is he?" Li Yuan hesitated slightly: "Does he not know Tian Dazhuang?"
"I didn't tell him the information," Lin Lanyue shook her head.
Seeing Li Yuan show a puzzled expression.
Lin Lanyue shook her head lightly and said: "He is different from you; you didn't know the inside story of the itinerary, and it was not convenient to check other people’s data, which is understandable."
"But him? He has enough resources in his hands and could have fully understood the event itinerary in advance and understood his opponents in advance, but it looks like he didn't do anything," Lin Lanyue sighed: "This kind of thing, he doesn't care about it himself."
"Why should I tell him? Better to let him taste a lesson," Lin Lanyue shook her head.
Li Yuan was dumbfounded, looking quite pitifully at Gu Qianghan, who was excited and twisting his body.
Is this love from a sister?
Lin Lanyue’s gaze fell on the arena, and she didn't say anything else; there were some things she didn't want to say directly to Li Yuan.
This invitation event.
For martial arts geniuses with ordinary families like Li Yuan, Tian Dazhuang, and Wang Yu, it was a rare opportunity.
But for Lin Lanyue, Wu Dongdong, including Gu Qianghan?
If they had potential and were willing to work hard, the least they lacked was so-called opportunities.
"Mm?"
"Dong Haifeng, also entered the first match?" Li Yuan swept his gaze and found another schoolmate in the arena.
When Li Yuan and Lin Lanyue were communicating quickly.
The huge countdown number above the arena had already gone from 15 to 3, 2...
"1."
"Start," the man in black above the arena let out a low roar, and he flew up thirty meters high instantly, ensuring he wouldn't interfere with any contestants.
The next instant, the cheers of the combat space erupted.
And on the arena, the 200 people who were originally restricted in their body movements and could not leave their own positions felt that they could move freely.
However, no one moved for the time being.
No one wanted to be a standout.
At the same time, all participants could clearly see their own points and match ranking from their respective fields of vision.
This silence lasted only one second.
"Whoosh!"
"Boom!" Someone moved.
This movement was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand layers of waves.
Other participants all moved.
In the 15 seconds of the countdown just now, everyone had already selected their first target.
"Boom!"
"Boom!" "Clang!" Instantly, an incomparably crazy battle erupted in the arena.
The 10.0-level physical fitness made the explosive speed of every participant reach 22 meters/second, and the fist force reached 1300 kilograms, plus holding weapons, one could imagine how terrifying the destructive power of each person was.
Now, all concentrated in such a small arena.
"Little brat..." Gu Qianghan shouted two words excitedly.
"Puff~"
A dazzling blade light slashed across, and Gu Qianghan turned into nothingness.
"The first one," Tian Dazhuang held a mountain-opening knife over a meter long and muttered to himself: "Continue."
He didn't care about Gu Qianghan’s provocation at all.
With his family background, what kind of people had he not met growing up?
In his eyes, Gu Qianghan was an idiot, not worth wasting energy to care about.
"Boom!" Tian Dazhuang’s figure moved and rushed out, directly killing a spear expert.
"Clang~" A fierce weapon collision.
Following that, a knife slashed down like lightning.
This spear expert was directly split in half by this swift and terrifying mountain-opening knife.
Blood splashed, turning into nothingness.
One knife to kill!
"Killed in one move, damn, I’m the last place!" Gu Qianghan appeared in his seat first.
"How is it?" Lin Lanyue was looking at Li Yuan next to her.
Li Yuan was staring at Tian Dazhuang, who was slaughtering crazily in the arena, and said in a low voice: "His knife! So fast! Faster than my spear."
"Definitely a fourth-stage knife technique! And he must have entered the fourth stage a long time ago," Li Yuan said seriously.
Deep in Li Yuan’s eyes, a trace of respect flashed.
Experts admire experts.
"Yes."
Lin Lanyue nodded: "My sword technique teacher commented on Tian Dazhuang’s combat video for me."
"He said, just in terms of martial arts skills, this Tian Dazhuang should be at the level of the top thirty on the Blue Star Youth List, or even higher."
