Chapter 238

At the same time, Lin Qi returned to the spectator stands.

The seventh round officially ended, with only 34 people successfully advancing to the eighth round; besides the 30 seeded contestants, there were also top geniuses carefully cultivated by the ten famous schools, such as Mao Jia and Yi Shaojie.

Lin Qi looked around; in their Cangqiong Six Academies, except for himself, everyone else had already been eliminated.

Jiang Tao, Guanshan, Guo Heng, and Yu Jing were all eliminated in the seventh round.

Among them, Jiang Tao performed the most outstandingly; he faced the academy head-level Zhuang Yang and was once locked in a fierce battle with him.

He almost already possessed the strength of an S-level genius.

"Give me a few more months, and I will also possess the strength of an S-level genius," Jiang Tao said indignantly.

The people around were silent after hearing this; through the seventh round of the competition, they understood that Jiang Tao had officially surpassed Guanshan and become the number one in combat power under the head of the Cangqiong Six Academies.

Guanshan felt the most pressure; if he didn't want to be surpassed by more people, he would have to work even harder.

"Contestants!"

Vice Principal Xu Wenji was projected again under the aggregation of light and shadow particles.

"Let us congratulate the 34 contestants for successfully advancing to the eighth round; each of them is the elite of the elite."

"The upcoming battles will also become increasingly wonderful."

Many contestants in the spectator stands were eager to try; those who remained were basically S-level geniuses, and none were weak.

"Next, the contestants who pass the eighth round will receive a bonus of 6 million Xia currency."

"At the same time, out of 36 contestants, only 18 contestants can advance!!"

As soon as Xu Wenji said this, the spectator stands suddenly became restless.

"36 contestants? Not 34? How come there are two extra people?" someone asked in confusion.

"Could it be that Principal Xu misspoke?"

Just when the audience was confused, geniuses like Lin Qi, Huo Wanyang, Li Hanjiang, and Liang Yuxin suddenly frowned, having a bad premonition in their hearts.

Xu Wenji smiled and explained:

"Just last night, two contestants used wildcards to join the competition midway."

"So we now have 36 contestants!"

After Xu Wenji finished speaking loudly, the screen in front of him began to refresh again; besides the original 34 contestants, two more names appeared behind them at this time.

【Tan Peier (Shanyu Martial Arts University)】

【Han Zhen (Cangqiong Martial Arts University)】

……

As soon as the two names appeared, Liang Yuxin in the Shanyu Martial Arts University spectator stands suddenly changed her expression.

"Sure enough, geniuses from the Ten Academies have participated!"

"And it's that shameless person Tan Peier; however, the National Freshman Competition prohibits the use of special abilities, so she and I don't have much difference."

"I might be able to defeat her!"

Thinking of this, Liang Yuxin's brows relaxed again.

In the Minghai Martial Arts University spectator stands, Li Hanjiang even smiled:

"Although it's unexpected, it's good that they participated."

"Just having Lin Qi is not very interesting; it's more exciting to fight against geniuses from the Ten Academies; maybe my spear technique can go a step further."

In the Cangqiong Six Academies spectator stands, Lin Qi frowned, secretly thinking that sure enough, his intuition was not wrong; there really were geniuses from the Ten Academies participating.

Not one, but two!

"What's the situation with Tan Peier and Han Zhen?" Jiang Tao asked in confusion.

"They hold wildcards and joined the competition directly in the top 34; only geniuses who have awakened special abilities are qualified," Guo Heng explained with a serious expression.

"Damn, this is unfair; who can beat them if they have special abilities?" Li Zhou shook his head.

"They will be prohibited from using special abilities," Guo Heng explained again.

"Then there's nothing to worry about," Jiang and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lin Lin Qi Ge, we are fighting the elites; let's step on this group of geniuses to win the championship," Jiang Tao said seriously.

Lin Qi also revealed a smile; Jiang Tao's idea coincided with his own; he had a trump card, and even if they were geniuses from the Ten Academies, he had the confidence to defeat them.

In a corner of the spectator stands, several figures appeared, among them were Tan Peier and Han Zhen.

They looked at the screen, revealing eager expressions.

……

At the same time, the people in the spectator stands also learned about the wildcard contestants, and a clamor suddenly erupted.

"Are they geniuses who have awakened special abilities?" "They are actually going to participate too?"

"Finally, we can see the mysterious geniuses from the Ten Academies!!"

They only felt that the upcoming competition would be increasingly wonderful.

"Then I announce that the eighth round of the National Freshman Competition officially begins!"

Xu Wenji slowly stretched out his hand, and a huge black Rubik's cube appeared in his hand, with thirty-six sides, each side having the name of a contestant.

"Bang!"

The next moment, the special-effect black Rubik's cube shattered with a boom, and the 36 blocks recombined into a brand-new battle table.

18 sets of battles appeared in front of everyone.

Lin Qi memorized the battle table at a glance, and the set concerning his battle was exceptionally conspicuous.

【Match 1: Lin Qi (Cangqiong) vs. Wei Peng (Minghai)】

Lin Qi was quite surprised that it was his turn to play in the first match.

!

"Next, let us invite the two contestants for the first match, namely student Lin Qi from Cangqiong Martial Arts University, and contestant Wei Peng from Minghai Martial Arts University, the top graduate of the college entrance examination."

Xu Wenji dissipated, but his voice still rang out.

"Clap, clap!!"

Applause rang out in the spectator stands; this was destined to be a wonderful opponent, a tough dish right from the start.

Lin Qi, now the number one freshman of Cangqiong Martial Arts University, defeated Huo Wanyang, the second-place graduate of the college entrance examination, to reach the top.

Wei Peng, the former top graduate of the college entrance examination, now the second person of Minghai.

At the same time, it was also a collision between Cangqiong Martial Arts University and Minghai Martial Arts University, with many highlights.

In the spectator stands, Lin Qi slowly stood up and turned into a crimson light pillar, descending onto the arena; the people around were very confident because Lin Qi couldn't lose.

"How about we make a bet on how many moves Lin Lin Qi Ge will take to solve Wei Peng?" Jiang Tao suggested.

"I bet ten moves, putting up one hundred yuan!"

"I bet 9 moves!"

A group of people began to bet.

……

On the arena that looked like ruins, two crimson light pillars descended onto the asphalt road.

A few seconds later, two figures slowly walked out from them.

Lin Qi was still wearing a black combat suit, holding a 100-kilogram black great spear in one hand.

His gaze was locked on the opposite side, as a burly figure walked out wielding a heavy, sharp battle axe.

Wei Peng was wearing a purple-black combat suit, and the tight combat suit displayed his burly physique and boulder-like muscles.

The sense of oppression was full; he was over two meters two tall, like a crazy giant bear on the battlefield.

Lin Qi saw Wei Peng, and through his aura, he could judge that the source energy technique Wei Peng practiced was the "Great Strength Bear Evolution Method."

It allows the practitioner to possess unparalleled, astonishing giant strength.

Wei Peng looked at Lin Qi and grinned:

"Lin Qi, you are the number one freshman of Cangqiong Martial Arts University."

"Even Huo Wanyang was defeated; it seems Huo Wanyang is not much."

"Next, I, Wei Peng, will defeat all opponents to win the championship, starting with you, Lin Qi!"

He waved his battle axe, the sharp axe blade pointing at Lin Qi, speaking confidently.

Lin Qi raised his head and said calmly: "Try your best!"

While saying this, an invisible aura was released from his body, and his eyes seemed to bloom with golden light.

A giant golden tiger seemed to have awakened in his body.

【Countdown: 3, 2, 1……】

【The first advancement match officially begins!】

Above the arena, the smart voice suddenly resounded through the spectator stands.

Millions of eyes looked at the arena in unison.
