Back in the audience, in the conclave students' section.
"This Xia Ping's defensive energy art is incredible."
One of the conclave students had sharp eyes, and was paying close attention to Xia Ping's defensive energy art. "He actually blocked the Triple Wave Sword's sword energy, weakened it, and even caused a backlash. I can't even see his weak spots."
"Just what kind of defensive technique is that? How come I can't see anything special about it?"
He was different from the ordinary viewers in the live broadcast room. He was a grandmaster with incredible martial arts, so he was most interested in the technique Xia Ping had used to defeat Jia Zhijie.
It was a huge shock to him.
"I'm not sure, but it's a very powerful defensive energy art. It's comparable to the Golden Bell Canopy, the Thirteen Guardians Defensive Art, and the Vajra Indestructible Incantation."
One of the conclave students had a very serious expression on his face. He knew how terrifying it was to cultivate a consummate defensive energy art to such a high level. It meant that even if an enemy used all their strength, they wouldn't be able to hurt him.
Lu Chao had been famous before, and was considered a favorite to win the championship, all because of his Vajra Indestructible Body.
"Who would have thought that another mysterious defensive energy art would appear in the Cloud World? I wonder where it came from. Where did this kid get it? "Another conclave student's eyes glittered.
"I'm not sure. I heard he's a commoner with no background."
"That's true. Even if he joined the Giant Corporation and became an elite student, he'd still have to pay a huge price to acquire a peerless defensive energy art like this. Considering his current wealth, I doubt he'd be able to acquire it."
"I bet it was some sort of fortuitous encounter. The kid must have found some ancient ruins, from which he obtained many secret martial arts manuals. That's how he rose to the top."
Quite a few conclave students were discussing the matter. Fortuitous encounters weren't anything new.
In fact, most of the martial arts manuals in the human world had been discovered through excavations.
Even after a thousand years, there were still rumors of people discovering new ruins and obtaining new manuals. Therefore, it was normal for Xia Ping to find an ancient ruin and reap great rewards.
Conclave students like them had all encountered some sort of fortuitous encounter, which was why they were able to advance by leaps and bounds.
"Hahaha! How are you doing, Dao Bailan?" Qiuxu grinned at Dao Bailan, "Didn't you say that he would be eliminated in the first round? He's no match for Jia Zhijie."
"Right now, Jia Zhijie is not Xia Ping's opponent at all. Even if he goes all out, he still can't break through his defense."
"Do you have any thoughts about this situation?"
Dream my ass!
Dao Bailan gritted her teeth. She knew that Qiuxu was slapping her in the face in front of everyone, so she asked her what she thought now. What else could she think? Could she say that Xia Ping fought well and won beautifully?
No matter what, this narrow-minded woman would mock her and make her lose all face.
"Hmph, so what if you beat Jia Zhijie and break through the first round? He's just trying to show off his defensive energy arts. " Dao Bailan was still very stubborn, "In the end, he's just a 7th level Martial Master brat. Compared to many peak Martial Master elite students, he's far from it."
"Just wait and see. Otherwise, he will suffer a crushing defeat and leave the arena with a long face."
She gritted her teeth and cursed fiercely.
"Interesting, still so stubborn. In that case, do you want to bet with me?" Qiuxu changed the topic and looked at Dao Bailan, wanting to bet with her.
"Bet?"
Hearing this, Dao Bailan was dazed, not knowing what she was talking about.
"Yes, bet that he can become the champion of this genius competition." Qiuxu said plainly.
What?!
Hearing this, not only Dao Bailan, even the surrounding people were dumbfounded, as if they heard some fantasy story. They couldn't believe their ears.
"Haha."
Instantly, Dao Bailan laughed loudly, "Qiuxu, you're crazy. I admit that this brat has some strength, but at most, he can only make it into top 100. Becoming the champion is a fool's dream."
"Maybe you don't know how terrifying the descendants of the king clans and all kinds of geniuses are."
"Even if you have special feelings for this pretty boy, you wouldn't say such stupid words."
"Or maybe your brain is muddled and you don't even know what basic logic is."
She laughed at Qiuxu, thinking this was the biggest joke in the world.
"Indeed, even if this is a joke, it's a bit too much."
"The four great schools and the descendants of the king clans are all geniuses. Many of them are even at the peak of the martial master level, just one step away from becoming a master."
"Indeed, facing such a monster, that seventh-grade martial master brat wants to become the champion. It's like stealing food from a tiger's mouth. I think he's overestimating himself."
"If he can reach the ninth-grade martial master level, he might have a chance to become the champion. But now, it's impossible."
"Though we respect Lady Qiu a lot, we really can't agree with what you're saying."
"You're looking down on the other geniuses too much. Letting a seventh-grade martial master level brat become the champion and step on everyone else. Do you really think the other geniuses grow up eating shit and let him do whatever he wants?"
Many core students snickered.
Although they didn't have anything against Qiuxu, they felt that her words were a bit too much.
If the champion was really taken away by Xia Ping, the geniuses of the other schools and the descendants of the king clans would be humiliated. They were looking down on them too much.
These people snorted at Qiuxu's words.
With a swoosh, Qiuxu gently grabbed her body with her right hand. Immediately, a force that seemed to be able to shake mountains descended.
Immediately, the surrounding core students looked over and saw a golden pill in Qiuxu's right hand.
As soon as the pill appeared, it instantly emitted a golden light, causing the sky to lose its color. The crowd could barely open their eyes, as they couldn't even look at it directly. It was like a sun.
A majestic energy circulated around the golden pill. There seemed to be many ancient runes on it, containing a mysterious and profound power. It was simply unfathomable.
There was even a wave of medicinal fragrance, which was mesmerizing. Many core students were energized, as if the bottleneck of their martial arts had been loosened at this moment.
"Limitless Dragon Sun Pill!"
As soon as the conclave students saw the medicinal pill, they shrieked, glaring at it. "According to the legends, this pill uses dragon blood as a catalyst, and forty-nine thousand-year-old spirit medicines. After ten years, it can be concocted. It's a supreme medicinal pill!"
