Chapter 278: Divine Character Tournament (1)
In front of the students.
The researchers were softly conversing among themselves.
A third-stage Cloudbreach expert from the Beast Taming Faculty was present as well. When he saw Qi Chong step forward, he helplessly said, "This is unlucky. Qi Chong is strong enough to get into the top 10, but he just has to meet Xia Chan in his first match."
When competing using Divine Characters, one's willpower and Divine Characters were naturally the crux. Although most of these new students had similar cultivation levels, there was no denying that the Beast Taming Faculty students had to divert their attention on their beast taming cultivation, neglecting some of their willpower and Divine Character cultivation.
And since Qi Chong was already weaker than Xia Chan in the first place, there was no way he would be her match if he was only allowed to use willpower and Divine Characters.
"Well. I guess Qi Chong can only try to last as long as he can. Their willpower should be similar since Xia Chan's willpower is not over 90 percent yet..."
While they were speaking, Xia Chan walked toward one side of the ball with a cold expression.
She did not waste her time saying anything and sent her willpower straight into the ball. Next, the entire ball turned red.
Liu Hong said, "When you first enter, you have three seconds of immunity where your willpower won't clash against each other. Thus, both parties must enter within three seconds or the person entering first will have the advantage."
Qi Chong did not need further reminding. His face turned solemn as he sent his willpower into the ball as well. Instantly, half the ball turned yellow.
Red represented Xia Chan while yellow represented Qi Chong.
Su Yu and the others were looking at the ball, but they weren't able to see the situation unfolding inside. They could only see the two colors pushing against each other.
Su Yu was slightly disappointed.
But there was no helping it. They had yet to materialize their Divine Characters so for the sake of this competition, they had to borrow the help of an external object just to fight properly. Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to witness the result of the fight since none of the students here had materialized their Divine Characters yet.
While Su Yu was thinking, the crowd suddenly cried out in surprise. That pulled Su Yu out of his thoughts. He hurriedly looked at the ball again. He could see that on the ball, the color red had instantly covered the color yellow and started devouring the territory occupied by the color yellow.
Meanwhile, Qi Chong, with his eyes shut, turned pale while beads of sweat formed on his forehead. In less than 10 seconds, he coughed a mouthful of blood and opened his eyes. With a distressed expression, he looked at the proud Xia Chan.
The ball had turned completely red. Xia Chan had won the match. Silence descended upon the students. Some of the Beast Taming Faculty students even turned pale.
Qi Chong was the strongest student in their faculty. But he couldn't even last 10 seconds against Xia Chan.
Qi Chong looked greatly discouraged. After shooting a glance at Xia Chan, he lowered his head and silently returned to the crowd. He had suffered a crushing defeat.
"A freak is a freak, after all."
A student exclaimed beside Su Yu. Qi Chong had been defeated way too quickly.
Su Yu focused and heard someone softly asking Qi Chong about the fight. Qi Chong replied, "She's too strong. It's a break character of the divine race. It was able to instantly break my Divine Character. I suspect that character is near the second tier. If you encounter her, you better concede if you don't want to be injured."
Su Yu's face turned solemn.
Divine race character.
And it was the break character. Clearly, this was an offensive character. But looking at Qi Chong, his injuries were quite light. Xia Chan had probably not pushed harder after obtaining the upper hand, letting Qi Chong off with minor injuries.
"Defeating Qi Chong with only one character!"
Su Yu stole a glance at Xia Chan. She was as cold as ever, standing beside Wan Mingze and the other freaks. No other student dared to stand among them.
...
Meanwhile, the Beast Taming Faculty's researcher could only shake his head helplessly.
That was a terrible defeat.
"Truly worthy of being someone from the Xia Family." The teacher said, "How I wish I can witness their fight when they can finally materialize their characters. That is when these fights will become truly interesting."
That was true. Their fights of cultural researchers at the Skysoar Realm and above were truly quite a sight to behold. The eruption of numerous Divine Characters and abilities were much more interesting than this tournament where all they could see was the change of colors covering a ball.
The same teacher continued, "There are eight freaks among the new students this year. I'm afraid nobody apart from their fellow freaks can compete against them. All eight of them will definitely be in the top ten. The remaining two positions will probably be taken by some other high-high students."n-)o)(v(-e--l.-B-)1/(n
Since there were quite a lot of high-high students this year, that person looked at Liu Hong and said, "Bai Feng's student does not seem to have a powerful willpower. How many Divine Characters does he have?"
Liu Hong smiled, "I'm not sure. But he can probably enter the top ten as well. Of course, things might change if he encounters those freaks too early."
"You sure look highly upon him..." That person laughed, "Are you deliberately saying this to create enemies for him?"
Liu Hong merely smiled and said, "Just wait and see. That fellow...is not weak at all. He might be a fresh Mental Tempering Stage student, but in a real fight, even your faculty's Qi Chong might not be his match."
"Is that so?"
He was clearly unconvinced. Qi Chong had merely been unlucky to meet Xia Chan this early. Otherwise, he was definitely strong enough to enter the top 10.
At this time, an instructor yelled, "Number 3 and number 4. After this, the following pairs can come up by yourselves after a match is over. There is no need to wait for your numbers to be called."
With a smile on his face, Wan Mingze walked out. When the other student saw that it was Wan Mingze, his face turned bitter. What was going on? Why were two freaks fighting one after another?
Wan Mingze smiled and said, "Fellow student, don't look at me like that. I have a heavy pressure on my shoulders as well. Let's just take this as an exchange of pointers. It is quite rare for us to be able to spar like this."
The other student was slightly comforted by those words. He smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you in advance for the guidance, Senior Brother Wan."
He had a good impression of Wan Mingze and wasted no time in stepping toward the ball. Wan Mingze politely gestured at his opponent to go first. Instantly, the ball became covered in black. Next, Wan Mingze entered, covering half the ball in white. It was unknown how the ball determined the color of each student.
...
There was no suspense to the result of this match.
It only lasted 30 seconds.
Wan Mingze's opponent retreated out of the grotto by himself. With a pale expression, he bowed and said, "Thank you for the guidance, Senior Brother Wan."
He had lost. He had lost miserably.
But everyone could see the two colors constantly struggling against each other. Evidently, Wan Mingze had not delivered his opponent a crushing defeat instantly. Rather, he had allowed his opponent to fight with all his strength before moving in to grab the win, behaving like a true gentleman
At this time, Xia Huyou had arrived beside Su Yu again. He softly said, "This fellow is a smiling tiger. You better be careful of him. He pretends to be a gentleman when he's in public with that smile of his. But you never know the type of person he truly is deep inside."
Right after Xia Huyou said that, a wide smile bloomed on Su Yu's face.
He stepped forth. It was his turn to fight.
He had a bright smile on his face. When he saw who his opponent was, his smile grew wider as he said, "Zongji, I need to get first place. That thing belongs to my grandteacher. I won't hold back. I hope you don't hold back either. You don't mind if we fight with all our strength, right?"
Hu Zongji had an unsightly expression. But he still rejoiced that his opponent was Su Yu. He remembered that Su Yu had a strong physical cultivation but a weak willpower cultivation. At that thought, his mood improved.
Since Su Yu had such a genial smile on his face, Hu Zongji couldn't say anything apart from, "We'll both do our best. Su Yu, I won't be holding back."
Su Yu nodded while maintaining the smile on his face.
He walked up to the ball and waited until Hu Zongji arrived. Then, he said, "Let's enter. Zongji, let's work hard together!"
Hu Zongji was completely speechless. Since Su Yu was so polite, should he still give Su Yu a beating?
Meanwhile, Xia Huyou was grimacing in the crowd. It seemed like his warning had been pointless. Then again, he should have known about this. Su Yu was definitely no simple kid. Wan Mingze might be a hypocrite, but Su Yu...was definitely no saint.
Just look at what had happened to all his former opponents! It had been a while since Lin Yao created trouble for Su Yu. Xia Huyou had even noticed Lin Yao warmly greeting Su Yu with a silent smile whenever they met.
As for Zheng Yunhui, he had somehow been turned from an enemy into a partner by Su Yu. Xia Huyou was unclear about the matter involving Chen Qi so he had nothing to say about that.
Even Wu Lan, who Su Yu had offended in Nanyuan, was now quite nice to Su Yu. The rumor that Su Yu had thoroughly offended her was clearly a lie. And even today, those intermediate class students would still happily call him their class monitor whenever they encounter him.
"Hypocrite number 2."
Xia Huyou muttered under his breath.
...
At the same time, the ball was covered by two colors.
On one side was the gold color, representing Su Yu.
On the other side was the green color, representing Hu Zongji.
The two had just entered so they each shared half the ball.
...
The world around Su Yu spun.
When he sent his willpower into the ball, the sensation felt similar to when he returned to his sea of willpower.
He had transformed into a miniature version of himself inside the ball. Not far ahead of him was a miniature Hu Zongji. The two gazed at each other. They couldn't talk in this grotto, but they could clearly see each other.
Hu Zongji was about to attack when Su Yu smiled and gestured for him to make the first move.
Hu Zongji cursed inwardly. Did Su Yu think that he was stronger? Su Yu might have a stronger physical cultivation, but Hu Zongji was confident he was stronger in willpower cultivation. Why was Su Yu being so pretentious here?
Hu Zongji vowed to deliver Su Yu a crushing defeat and embarrass him thoroughly. A massive character appeared before him and turned into countless swords before shooting toward Su Yu.
"Sword!"
This was no divine or devil character. It was a character of the white tiger race and could be considered quite a powerful one. Hu Zongji's willpower was nothing special as it had only reached 60 percent.
But in this tiny grotto, he appeared rather awe-inspiring with countless swords hovering before him. Facing the incoming swords, Su Yu smiled. He remained calm and obliterated the incoming swords with a casual wave of his arm.
Hu Zongji's face fell. He created even more swords and sent them to surround and defeat Su Yu.
