Chapter 38: Promotion Match (Please follow)

Lin Qi came to the 503 martial arts room alone.

This originally belonged to another classmate, but the other party dropped out of the top 30 in this monthly exam and lost his martial arts room.

The other party had tidied up his things yesterday and didn't delay Lin Qi's time.

The entire martial arts room had been cleaned by an intelligent robot, emitting the smell of air freshener.

Lin Qi stood in the martial arts room; the room facilities were no different from Jiang Tao's martial arts room.

But now it was his own little space.

In the bathroom, Lin Qi looked at himself in the mirror; 20 days had passed since the 5% fusion level.

It was becoming more and more difficult to increase the fusion level, but it was enough for him.

His whole person, from the inside out, had undergone huge changes again.

His facial contours had completely opened up, becoming more distinct, his lines were firm, and his skin was exquisite and smooth.

His height broke through to 1.85 meters, his frame was thick, and his shoulders were wide and thick.

His arms were like two giant pythons, veins bulging like steel bars wrapped around, full of explosive power.

His heart beat powerfully, providing a steady stream of power to his body.

Now Lin Qi's body was tall and strong, radiating a cold and stern temperament.

He was becoming more and more similar to Erlang Zhenjun in his impression.

Changing into his martial arts uniform, he began to consume blood-Qi potion; the blood-Qi capsules had been eliminated by him and replaced by blood-Qi potion.

"The monthly exam is over, and my goal should also be changed."

"But before that, I have to raise my rank in the Red Realm Arena to Star Rank and get the 500,000 Xia currency reward."

"Swish swish~"

"Chhh~"

Lin Qi picked up the long spear and wielded it; the spear technique was imposing, and spear shadows were everywhere.

At night, outside the Vault of Heaven Martial Arts Mansion

"Beep!"

【Your industrial card ending in xxx has received 30,000 yuan, balance: 63,128 yuan】

"Brother Qi, the scholarship has arrived; mine is 50,000 this time."

Jiang Tao looked at his phone and smiled.

Lin Qi nodded: "Mine has also arrived."

The 30,000 scholarship was just an appetizer; the genius loan and activity bonus were the keys.

"Let's go, today after 12 o'clock, the activity will end."

"Okay!"

The two entered the Vault of Heaven Martial Arts Mansion and saw Guo Heng, who was brushing videos in the lobby.

"Let's go, no sparring today, go directly to the virtual room to match."

"You two seize the opportunity; now there are less than four hours until 12 o'clock."

"There are a lot of people matching in the martial arts mansion; everyone is charging towards the Star Rank; if I hadn't booked three spots in advance, there would be no spots by now."

Guo Heng said, taking the two towards the virtual room.

"A-Heng, thank you so much!" Jiang Tao expressed his gratitude; they really hadn't thought of this point.

"By the way, what was your ranking in Tianhai City in this monthly exam?" On the way, Guo Heng asked curiously.

Lin Qi and Jiang Tao didn't hide it and said it.

"288, 100th, not bad, I really didn't misjudge you," Guo Heng laughed.

"Then what about you, A-Heng?" Jiang Tao asked back.

After hearing this, Guo Heng raised the corners of his mouth, quite proudly:

"I am 5th in the grade in the First Middle School, and 14th in Tianhai City."

"14th in Tianhai?!"

Lin Qi was shocked, and after looking at Jiang Tao, they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes; this was one place higher than Yu Jing, the second in their school's grade!

As expected of a genius from the First Middle School, his strength was indeed very strong, and there were four others stronger than Guo Heng in the First Middle School.

Comparing this way, their Tianhai Second Middle School was indeed too weak in overall strength.

During the chat, the three entered the virtual room; countless people were coming in and out, and one could see the dense crowd and discussions inside.

Only after entering did they find that there were even more people.

"Old Guo, you finally came!"

"A lot of people already have opinions about you occupying three spots."

Three people walked over, two men and one woman, and someone teased.

Lin Qi looked at the three and found a familiar person, the curly-haired man "My Great Sword," the first opponent he matched in the Red Realm Arena.

He left a deep impression on him; he didn't know what his strength was now?

The one who spoke was a boy with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, thick black arms, and rough facial features.

Guo Heng didn't care: "So what, I paid for it, and it's only been 10 minutes."

Another girl, slim and exquisitely dressed, saw Lin Qi and the two, and asked curiously:

"Aren't you going to introduce these two friends?"

"Lin Qi, Jiang Tao, from the Second Middle School, they are new friends I made."

"Lü Xiang, Wu Feng, Qiu Siying, my classmates in the First Middle School."

Guo Heng briefly introduced both sides.

"Hello!" Jiang Tao greeted with a smile, while Lin Qi nodded.

"From the Second Middle School?!" Wu Feng's eyes changed, and he frowned.

Qiu Siying shook her head and smiled: "Old Guo, you're not satisfied with having us as friends, actually making friends from the Second Middle School."

"It makes us too sad."

Lin Qi and Jiang Tao inexplicably felt uncomfortable. They felt they were looked down upon.

Lü Xiang didn't speak, but looked at Lin Qi and frowned; he inexplicably felt a bit familiar.

"Alright, no more nonsense with you."

"Lin Qi, Jiang Tao, let's go."

Guo Heng didn't talk nonsense and took the two away directly.

The three came to a corner, where there were three virtual cabins that no one was using.

"Hurry up and match, hurry up and promote to Star Rank," Guo Heng urged.

After speaking, he was the first to enter the virtual cabin. "Let's go in too!"

"Okay!"

Lin Qi and Jiang Tao didn't talk nonsense either, entering the virtual cabin one after another and logging into the Red Realm.

Not far away, Wu Feng and the three watched Lin Qi and the others enter the virtual cabin.

"Those two from the Second Middle School can actually make friends with the arrogant Guo Heng; is there something special?" Wu Feng was curious.

"Aside from the famous Battle Axe Bear, Swift Eagle, and Sword Sparrow, the others are not worth mentioning," Qiu Siying shook her head in disdain.

"That's right!"

"Old Guo is quite fond of socializing; I guess they just met," Wu Feng nodded in agreement.

"Stop chatting, hurry up and enter the virtual cabin."

"Always occupying the spot, others will have opinions," Lü Xiang urged.

"Got it, don't urge!"

!

【Yang Jian, welcome to the Arena Red Realm!】

Lin Qi listened to the intelligent voice, stood in the personal space, and called out the personal panel.

【Nickname: Yang Jian】

【Rank: Elite】

【Win Rate: 92%】

【Points: 142】

Lin Qi pondered; he now had 142 points, and was still 8 points away from being promoted to Star Rank.

That is, he needed to win at least three more games.

As long as he didn't lose, he would make it in time.

Thinking of this, he chose to start matching.

【Start matching!】

Two minutes later, Lin Qi appeared out of thin air in the empty arena.

Opposite him, a figure also emerged; it was a man in a blue combat suit.

He looked at his opponent, black clothes, black mask, black great spear, with a daunting temperament.

"Brother, your outfit is not bad."

He spoke to greet him.

What awaited him was the silence of the opposite side.

"Ignoring me?"

The blue-clothed boy was instantly displeased: "Want to act cool, you found the wrong person."

"I hate you guys who act cool the most!"

【3, 2, 1】

【Arena begins!】

With the electronic female voice in the air announcing the start, the arena officially began.

Two figures rushed out like lightning, colliding in the air, the fierce wind whistled, and sparks splashed.

One minute later

"Clang~~"

"Damn damn damn!!"

The blue-clothed man wielded his saber and retreated while fighting, resisting the spear strikes in a panic.

"Who is this guy, his spear technique is too perverted, I can't resist it at all."

The blue-clothed man felt he was extremely unlucky, actually matching a big shot.

"Puff~"

Cold light flashed from the spear tip in front of him, and the next moment, his chest hurt.

The long spear pierced his chest in an instant, and he was already dead.

"Brother, you're awesome!"

After saying this, the blue-clothed man fell helplessly and turned into nothingness.

【Yang Jian, congratulations on your victory!】

【Points +3】

【Points: 145】

Lin Qi returned to his personal space, and after seeing the points, he didn't stop.

"Continue matching!"

Half an hour later

【Yang Jian, congratulations on your victory!】

【Points +3】

【Points: 148】

"Whew~"

"Only the last game left!"

In the personal space, Lin Qi looked at the screen; he was only two points away, and after winning one more game, he would be able to complete the promotion.

"According to Guo Heng, this game is called a promotion match, and the backend will choose to arrange a strong opponent."

"Even the other party might be playing a promotion match; only the stronger can successfully promote."

"Continue matching!"

Lin Qi's eyes became serious, waiting quietly.
