Chapter 68
On the arena, the battle was still continuing.
Li Yuan held a long spear, continuously attacking Wu Luo, who held a saber and shield.
"Pow~" A spear swept horizontally, forcing Wu Luo to stagger backward.
"Li Yuan, I was wrong. I didn't know you at first, I shouldn't have attacked you." Wu Luo said urgently while desperately defending: "But you entangling with me will only let others pick up the bargain."
As an expert whose saber and shield techniques had both reached the perfection of the third stage, Wu Luo could still block a few of Li Yuan's moves when going all out.
"Pick up the bargain?" Li Yuan's cold gaze swept over, and the other participants had already retreated very far. Seeing this, they all felt a panic in their hearts and retreated even further.
You know, in the process of chasing Wu Luo, Li Yuan had casually killed five participants.
Who wouldn't fear such dominance and strength?
Moreover, for other participating students, Wu Luo was also a great expert. If he were solved by Li Yuan, their hope of rushing into the top ten would only be higher.
"This round!"
"No one is qualified to pick up the bargain." Li Yuan's voice was cold: "Go to hell!"
Did he have a grudge with Wu Luo before? No grudge!
But he always had to find an opponent, so why couldn't it be Wu Luo?
The others on the arena, to Li Yuan, had no challenge.
Conversely, Wu Luo had the strongest strength and could still trade a few moves with him.
"Pfft!!"
"Boom!" "Boom!" Li Yuan thrust the long spear again, the spear shadows changing, one spear after another, fierce and violent.
"Ahhh! Damn it!" Wu Luo could only try his best to defend, feeling so depressed he was about to vomit blood: "This Li Yuan is simply a lunatic."
Logically speaking, with Wu Luo's strength, rushing into the top ten of the cage melee was easy.
"Clang!" The two clashed like lightning, Li Yuan's attacks were swift and violent, like a tide, one spear after another.
Wu Luo's defense could be said to be impeccable, but every clash made his arms numb, and defending became increasingly difficult. After twelve consecutive spears, he was still caught by Li Yuan, who directly pierced his throat.
Blood splashed.
"Still can't defend, is this fourth-stage spear technique?" Wu Luo's body instantly turned into nothingness.
"My attacks are much weaker than Wang Dongdong's and Tian Dazhuang's, especially a cut weaker than Tian Dazhuang's." Li Yuan watched Wu Luo's body gradually disappear, thinking to himself: "Tian Dazhuang's Mountain-Opening Saber is extremely good at attacking, and his martial arts skill is indeed much higher than mine, probably around 20% of the fourth stage."
The other party had broken through at least three months earlier, so it was normal for his skill to be higher.
Moreover, what Li Yuan was best at was defense, not attack.
If he really had to fight Tian Dazhuang on the arena, Li Yuan asked himself if he had a possibility of winning.
Third-stage perfection and fourth stage? It was a world of difference.
But 2% of the fourth stage and 20% of the fourth stage? Both could already achieve the unity of body, mind, and weapon. The difference was just the degree of excavation of body strength, and the gap was not insurmountable.
"Kill!"
Li Yuan swung his spear and continued to kill others.
On the entire arena, few could block two of Li Yuan's spears, and they were killed one by one.
Besiege? Not to mention it was hard to be of one mind, even if they could be of one mind to besiege, they might not necessarily be able to kill Li Yuan.
The final duel unfolded between Li Yuan and another student, Xiong Xiaocheng, who had been pre-selected as A-level by the five prestigious schools.
In fact, it was Li Yuan who intentionally avoided the other party, giving Xiong Xiaocheng the opportunity to chase and kill others.
"I'm already second."
"First? This Li Yuan is too fierce, my hope of winning is very slim." Xiong Xiaocheng stared fixedly at Li Yuan, only feeling a fierce tiger staring at him.
He was already covered in sweat.
"If I want to win, there's only one chance."
"Regardless of the cost, attack wildly, maybe I can win." Xiong Xiaocheng made up his mind; he also practiced the long spear.
Already second, might as well go all out.
"Whoosh!"
Xiong Xiaocheng lunged at Li Yuan, the great spear in his hand thrusting fiercely at Li Yuan, swift and violent.
"《Splitting Gold Spear Technique》?" Li Yuan instantly glimpsed a thing or two from the other party's starting move and force-exerting method: "Is he an expert who practices the 《Splitting Heaven True Gold Method》?"
Like the Starry Sky Spear Technique, it was a second-order spear technique that was very compatible with the 《Rock Cultivation Method》.
The 《Splitting Heaven True Gold Method》, one of the seven high-level cultivation methods, naturally also had a second-order spear technique that was extremely compatible and matching.
Li Yuan often fought on the Starry Sky Fighting Network and had seen many experts, so he could recognize some styles.
Especially since he had encountered a Meteor-rank expert, the 《Splitting Gold Spear Technique》 the other party executed was violent and crazy, leaving a deep impression on Li Yuan, who had reviewed the recording many times.
"Boom!"
"Boom!" "Boom!" Li Yuan, who had become addicted to killing, had his long spear whistling, attacking with attack. After only three collisions, he shook the great spear in Xiong Xiaocheng's hand away.
"Pfft!"
The spear tip grazed, the head flew up, and the figure turned into nothingness.
On the entire arena, only Li Yuan remained.
……
"Such a steady spear, what he is good at should be defense." Tian Dazhuang on the viewing platform stared at Li Yuan, his eyes burning: "Another fourth stage!"
"It was still me sitting in a well watching the sky. Senior Long's words cannot be fully believed."
"Just in Jiangbei Province, including me, there are four fourth stages. Are there any hidden ones?"
"How many are there in the whole country? The whole world?" Tian Dazhuang secretly said: "Li Yuan?"
"I've remembered it."
……
Whoosh!
Li Yuan's figure appeared in his seat, immediately attracting the attention of hundreds of students around, all looking at him.
"Li Yuan?"
"From Jiangcheng City, there's a Wang Dongdong, and there's a Li Yuan. Deserves to be the provincial capital."
"But before, I never heard the teacher mention this name."
"Maybe others deliberately hid their strength in the January assessment?" Many students whispered.
In the first three rounds, the three fourth-stage experts who went crazy, Tian Dazhuang, Wang Yu, and Wang Dongdong, were actually famous.
Many people didn't know their appearance, but they had heard their names.
Only Li Yuan.
His total martial arts score only ranked two hundredth in Jiangcheng City, indeed too inconspicuous.
After this battle, Li Yuan was destined to become famous among the students in the invitation event.
"Li Yuan, awesome." Gu Qianghan had already turned around, shouting excitedly.
Li Yuan smiled.
"Li Yuan, amazing, I underestimated you before." Wang Dongdong stared at Li Yuan as if he had discovered a treasure, curious: "You are fourth stage in spear technique, and I am also fourth stage in spear technique. I will definitely find an opportunity to spar later."
"Good." Li Yuan had no objections.
Instead, it was Lin Lanyue, who only smiled slightly: "Congratulations on getting first place, 500,000 Blue Star Coins, you have to treat us later."
"Sorry." Li Yuan smiled: "I didn't tell you in advance, my spear technique only broke through yesterday."
"Oh?"
"Only broke through yesterday?" Lin Lanyue realized: "So, you fainting in the martial arts room yesterday also had something to do with your spear technique breaking through?"
"Yes!" Li Yuan nodded.
……
The fifth and sixth cage melees proceeded one after another.
However, no super experts like Li Yuan and Tian Dazhuang who led by a cliff-like margin appeared again.
But in a sense, it made these two melees even more exciting, giving most participating students more room to play.
Six rounds ended.
Of the ten students from the First High School of Guanshan District, except for Li Yuan and Lin Lanyue who got first and second.
None of the other eight students could rush into the top fifty.
This also made Dong Haifeng and the others realize the gap.
Perhaps, in terms of total martial arts score, some of them relied on 'spirituality bonus' to slightly exceed Li Yuan in the January assessment.
But the gap in real strength was huge.
In the 'Jiangbei Martial Arts University Invitation Event', which represented the highest level of high school senior students in Jiangbei Province, Li Yuan was still the most dazzling.
And they were already just ordinary members among thousands of elite students.
……
"I announce that the cage melee is over." The black-clad man's voice was still vigorous: "The sixty students who received rewards can check their accounts respectively."
"All Blue Star Coin rewards have been issued."
The end of this activity also meant that the first day's itinerary of the invitation event was completely over.
……
Virtual network, inside the personal space.
"500,000 Blue Star Coins, received." Li Yuan had already received the bank account notification and couldn't help but smile: "The efficiency of Jiangbei Martial Arts University is indeed high."
The most timely feedback is the most stimulating to people's motivation.
……
Exiting the virtual network cabin, Li Yuan took a can of cola from the refrigerator while chatting with Gu Qianghan.
"Beep~"
"Beep~" At the door of the martial arts room, the doorbell rang.
"So late, why is someone still coming?" Gu Qianghan looked puzzled: "Who is it!"
"I'll go open the door." Li Yuan smiled and went straight to open the door.
Opening the door, appearing in front of Li Yuan were a bald, burly man and an old man in a black robe.
"Who are you?" Li Yuan hesitated slightly; he could feel the aura emanating from both of them.
Moreover, Li Yuan had subconsciously probed, and both of their life levels exceeded the probe limit.
This meant that the two people in front of him were at least Source Martial Artists.
"Student Li Yuan."
"I am the Vice Dean of the Sixth Academy of Kunlun Martial Arts University, my surname is Li." The bald, burly man at the head smiled slightly: "I came because I want to represent Kunlun Martial Arts University and formally issue you an S-level special training invitation."
"Can we talk alone?"
