Chapter 292: Individual Event Champion! The Brilliant Xu Jingming!

~8 min read 1,415 words

"Contestant Wang Qi has lost consciousness; this match is won by Xu Jingming!"

"Let us congratulate Xu Jingming from Mo University, congratulations on winning the championship in the individual event of the National University League!!"

"We also thank both contestants for delivering such an incredible match!"

Wang Qi fell to the ground, and the host immediately announced the result with a raised voice.

The stadium, which had been utterly silent just moments before, erupted in an instant!

"Lei Di! Champion!"

"Lei Di! Strongest!"

"......"

Tens of thousands of spectators cheered and shouted, their voices nearly overturning the entire stadium!

19 years old!

Third-stage Upper Rank!

Before the National University League began, no one expected much from this captain of Mo University.

Many even believed he was merely a Class S talent pushed forward by Mo University for publicity.

But no one could have imagined that Xu Jingming had advanced with near-total dominance, earning the admiration and reverence of countless people!

Even in the final, he crossed an entire major stage to defeat Jing University's top-ranked student!!

"Jingming, you got first place..."

Women are drawn to strength,

Watching Xu Jingming standing on the arena, receiving countless cheers, his figure tall and upright.

Song Qiuyun's pink cheeks flushed with excitement, her gaze burning like fire.

"He won! Xiao Ming got first place!"

"I told you so, Xiao Ming would never lose!"

Aunt Xu Qingwan and Uncle Tang Daolin, among others, also wore expressions of excitement.

"How dazzling he is..."

Tang Qi, Zhou Mingyang, and Meng Di, amazed, couldn't help but reflect inwardly.

They had all come from Jiangcheng, yet Xu Jingming had already reached the national stage and claimed the highest honor.

Yet they couldn't even break into the top ten of their own grade.

The gap between them was no small matter.

"If I can make it into the top fifty this semester, that'll be good enough."

Zhou Mingyang shook his head and didn't dwell on it further.

Ever since Xu Jingming became the top scorer in Jiangnan Province on the Wu Ke Gaokao, he had already been destined to live in a different world from them.

"Senior got first place!"

Jiang Chuxuan, the white-haired girl at Mo City Institute of Psychic Abilities, also blushed deeply.

"No good, I must train harder; as soon as I finish the Grade Three Alchemist exam here, I'll head straight to Qingxu City to find him."

Jiang Chuxuan quickly closed the live stream and immersed herself in alchemical preparation.

She couldn't compete in the individual or team events, but for the Survival Event, she absolutely must go in person to cheer him on!

"Captain won!"

"No surprise—it's Ming-ge."

On the Mo University spectator side, Gu Wan and others wore smiles of joy.

Coach Yang Zhentian also exhaled in relief.

The league's three events: the individual championship had already been secured.

If they win just one more event, Mo University will become the overall champion of this year's league!

Reclaiming the glory that belongs to Mo University.

"Lost!"

"They actually lost?!"

"Sigh... is a Class SS psychic ability really that strong?"

"......"

In stark contrast to Mo University's jubilation, Jing University's side was plunged into the deepest despair.

Xu Jingming is only a freshman; this year was their best chance yet to defeat Mo University.

Next year, they'd have no chance at all to win.

Yet even so, they still lost...

"It's not that Class SS psychic ability is too strong—it's that Xu Jingming himself is simply incredibly powerful."

Coach Liu An saw more clearly than most.

Though he too regretted Wang Qi's defeat,

as a coach, such emotions must not show on his face, so he clapped and encouraged them:

"Don't lose heart, everyone—we still have the team match against Mo University tomorrow.

Wang Qi's injuries aren't severe; he should recover fully by tomorrow night.

Even if we can't beat them in the individual event, we must win the team event!"

"Team event! Yes! We still have the team event to prove ourselves!"

With this encouragement, the Jing University team members perked up slightly.

Yet a faint shadow of sorrow still lingered in their brows.

There was nothing to be done; the captain's defeat had struck them far too hard...

"Congratulations to Mo Da for winning the individual championship."

"Your school's Xu Jingming has an unimaginably bright future."

In the mentor zone, many teachers simultaneously turned to Vice Vice Principal Ling Shuang to offer their congratulations.

Meanwhile, Xu Ping from Jing University rubbed his temples, slightly pained.

Even Wang Qi couldn't beat him? Xu Jingming is truly this formidable.

This is finished.

Not just this year—for the next three years, Jing University will likely be crushed by Mo Da in the individual events.

With a silent sigh, Xu Ping also turned to Ling Shuang and congratulated her:

"Vice Principal Ling, congratulations."

Losing is losing; as Vice Vice Principal, Xu Ping would never be so petty as to refuse even a single word of congratulations.

Though Ling Shuang was cold and aloof, she was not oblivious to social niceties.

Facing the many teachers' congratulations, she merely nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Xu Jingming's victory was within her expectations; the only regret was that just now, Xu Ping from Jing University hadn't dared to bet with her.

Otherwise, she could have made another profit...

"Xu Jingming has won the individual final championship; the eighth day of the National University League is now coming to an end."

"Director Wu, may I ask your thoughts on the two competitors just now?"

"I believe this is precisely what many viewers are eager to know."

On the hosting stage,

Host Feng Le, as per tradition, questioned Wu Yuan, the Deputy Director of the National Education Bureau, who was serving as commentator.

"My view is simple: Jing University's captain, Wang Qi, is strong.

In any past league, he would have undoubtedly won the individual championship.

But unfortunately, he met an even stronger opponent—Xu Jingming.

As for Xu Jingming, I heard many spectators attribute his strength to his SS-rank ability.

In reality, that is only one factor.

His proficiency in fist techniques and gun techniques has reached the Master level, a standard ordinary ability users spend their entire lives striving for.

Moreover, his S-rank body cultivation combat technique has also been cultivated to an extremely profound degree.

As for the multiple A-rank and S-rank combat techniques he wields, I need not elaborate—everyone has seen them.

It is the combination of all these factors that has forged Xu Jingming's strength."

Undeniably, Wu Yuan, as Deputy Director of the National Education Bureau, observed with remarkable precision.

Is an SS-rank ability strong?

Indeed, it is.

But relying solely on an SS-rank ability could never allow one to cross a major tier and defeat Wang Qi, who possesses a pseudo-S-rank ability.

"In terms of individual power alone, Xu Jingming is the greatest in the National University League in over a decade!"

Wu Yuan delivered his final summary, paused, then added:

"Additionally, if Xu Jingming is willing to join our National Education Bureau,

I believe we can offer him the most satisfactory conditions possible!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience erupted!

The greatest in over a decade!

The National Education Bureau has extended an olive branch!

This was undoubtedly the most direct affirmation of Xu Jingming's strength!

The audience roared; but the second-in-commands of many other factions silently cursed inwardly.

That old fox! He moved fast!

"It seems Director Wu holds both competitors in very high regard. I hope both will find their ideal destinations.

With that, the individual competition of the National University League has officially concluded.

The competition rewards will be distributed collectively after the entire league ends.

Also, please join us tomorrow at 9 a. m. to watch the final day of the team competition.

Now, please follow the guides and exit in an orderly manner."

The host quickly announced the end of the match; the audience, excited from a full day of competition, began to file out while discussing enthusiastically.

Meanwhile, the second-in-commands of numerous factions immediately moved, rushing first toward Mo Du Ability University.

Yet at that moment, a flash of emerald lightning appeared, and a tall, graceful figure stood already beside Mo Da's spectator section.

More precisely, she appeared before Vice Principal Ling Shuang of Mo Da.

"Vice Principal Ling, it's been a long time. May I speak with Xu Jingming?"

Su Qingli's ethereal, melodious voice rang out as her clear, spring-like eyes turned toward them.
