Chapter 99: The Quarterfinals Begin
At this moment, in the stands, applause thundered; almost everyone was applauding for Zhao Mingze.
The scene of Bai Zun abusing Zhao Mingze was not only infuriating but also chilling.
Therefore, the heaven-shaking sword strike Zhao Mingze finally unleashed was very satisfying!
"Is this Bai Zun a psychopath? Isn't it enough to defeat someone? Why torture them!"
"I was truly blind to support such a pervert!"
"Who can defeat this guy? I find him so unpleasant now; I really hope someone can beat him up fiercely." A group of freshmen discussed heatedly.
In the field, even Bai Zun's group of female fans fell silent, no longer defending their idol.
Bai Zun's actions just now were truly despicable!
However, Bai Zun didn't care at all when he heard the discussions of the crowd around him.
At this moment, he had become incredibly radical and crazy.
He gave up on Beijing University and chose the National Martial Arts University for the dragon egg.
As long as he obtained the dragon egg, his talent and strength would both increase greatly! Therefore, he could not afford any mistakes.
"Success or death! As long as I take that dragon egg, all of you will have to bow down!"
Bai Zun touched the Boiling Blood Pill in his pocket, full of confidence.
At this time, Chen Fan and Gao Yuan helped Zhao Mingze to the stands, and Wen Hua hurriedly greeted them.
Zhao Mingze grinned and said: "Wen Hua, your Brother Ze is useless, I couldn't help you get revenge."
Seeing him still joking in such a tragic state, Wen Hua was moved while feeling somewhat helpless.
He sighed and placed his palm on Zhao Mingze's pierced abdomen.
A vibrant green energy actually seeped out from his hand and merged into Zhao Mingze's wound.
"This!" The crowd couldn't help but widen their eyes; Zhao Mingze's wound was actually healing visibly.
Before a few people could ask, Wen Hua took the initiative to explain: "My Nature Heart ability can not only control plants and communicate with nature, but it also carries rich life energy, which can help others recover from injuries quickly."
"So magical?" Chen Fan was somewhat surprised; Wen Hua was simply a seedling for a divine doctor!
Zhao Mingze's abdomen was wrapped in a green energy, and his expression was extremely relaxed, clearly very comfortable.
In just a dozen breaths, his wound had actually recovered as before.
However, Wen Hua's face was pale at this time, his body staggering, nearly falling backward.
"Are you okay?" Chen Fan was startled and hurriedly supported him.
Wen Hua was somewhat weak: "Don't worry, Brother Fan, I just exhausted my ability, I can recover after resting for a night."
"Good brother!" Zhao Mingze hugged Wen Hua's shoulder, feeling incredibly moved in his heart.
But a trace of frustration and unwillingness still flashed across his face.
"If my sword path could have broken through earlier, it wouldn't be certain who would win this battle!"
What Zhao Mingze said was true; Sword Control Technique was different from others. Once there was a breakthrough in the sword path, strength would increase significantly.
In his anger and disregard for everything, Zhao Mingze realized the sword intent—【Pressing Forward】.
This gave his Sword Control Technique a qualitative leap!
Chen Fan patted his shoulder and smiled: "Mingze, do you want to join the school team?"
Zhao Mingze was somewhat stunned, then said: "Of course I want to, but my mental power is exhausted, I can't control the sword in the short term. I'm afraid I can't grab the ninth or tenth spots."
Chen Fan patted his shoulder, took out a pill, and handed it to him.
"This is a Nurturing Spirit Pill. Instructor Tian Xiong gave me two, and I only used one. Swallow this; it's enough for you to recover your mental power in ten minutes!"
"Really?!" Zhao Mingze was overjoyed.
He took the Nurturing Spirit Pill and nearly cried with joy: "Brother Fan, Gao Yuan, our brothers must form a battle team of our own!"
Soon, the Round of 8 to 4 competition was about to begin.
The layout of the playground changed again, with four arenas rising from the ground, dividing the huge playground into four.
Now each arena covered an area of tens of thousands of square meters, giving ability users more space to perform.
Chen Fan leaped onto the stage. His opponent this time was a Tier 2 Early Stage ability user from the Magic Academy, named Feng Wuyou.
This person's strength was very strong, and his popularity in the Magic Academy was second only to Bai Zun.
His ability was related to wind, so his figure was as swift as the wind, exceptionally agile.
Moreover, the wind blades he slashed were elusive, and their trajectory was hard to grasp.
But in front of Chen Fan, it wasn't enough to look at.
In this duel, Chen Fan only used three punches to blast this person off the stage, where he fell and couldn't get up.
At this time, in the other three arenas, one-sided situations also appeared. The three winners were Bai Zun, Jiang Chen, and Gao Yuan!
Bai Zun and Jiang Chen's strength was unquestionable, but Gao Yuan's performance surprised many people.
In this match, Gao Yuan used weapons for the first time: two huge battle axes.
Gao Yuan's burly figure of over two meters plus two battle axes of one and a half meters provided full pressure.
His Diamond Undying Body gave him a powerful physique, and one axe strike possessed ten thousand jin of force!
The ability user he fought was named Huo Jing, also from the Magic Academy.
Because Gao Yuan now found people from the Magic Academy very unpleasant, he didn't hold back in this match.
The giant axes were swung wide and open, exceptionally fierce. After three or five rounds, he nearly split Huo Jing in two.
If the referee hadn't intervened in time to block the last axe, Huo Jing would definitely have been bleeding five steps away today.
Chen Fan couldn't help but nod; Gao Yuan's actual combat power had already exceeded the Tier 2 Late Stage, barely touching the threshold of the peak.
This was already very good!
But in the next match, Gao Yuan was afraid he wouldn't make it to the top two.
After all, the remaining three people all had at least Tier 2 Peak combat power.
"Gao Yuan, you should run into Bai Zun in the next match. Be careful, if the situation is bad, surrender immediately, I will deal with him!"
Chen Fan patted Gao Yuan's shoulder and reminded him.
He clearly remembered that when Bai Zun was torturing Zhao Mingze, his words revealed one piece of information: in the next match, he would be grouped with Jiang Chen.
And Gao Yuan would be grouped with Bai Zun.
"This Magic Academy really stops at nothing to win!"
Chen Fan felt despicable about this.
However, he didn't take it to heart. Whether it was Jiang Chen or Bai Zun, he wouldn't let either of them off easily today!
Sure enough, as Chen Fan expected, the referee soon announced the groupings.
Group 1: Gao Yuan versus Bai Zun!
Group 2: Chen Fan versus Jiang Chen!
As the playground was divided into two huge arenas, the duel officially began.
"Please take the stage!" The chief referee shouted loudly, his voice resonant, pushing the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.
Chen Fan and Gao Yuan nodded to each other and ran to their respective arenas.
At this time, the students in the stands became incredibly excited.
Although this was not the championship match, it was equally significant. ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
