The battle proceeded very quickly and smoothly. However, ever since Xing Jue threw the pockmarked man off the stage, he became the focal point of the entire place.
Only when the battle came to an end did people discover that Xing Jue was not the only one standing on the finals stage. There were also two other male disciples.
Most of the disciples recognized those two people. Although they were not on the Power Ranking, they had quite a bit of reputation in the Central Academy. They were extremely powerful people.
Everyone could accept that they were able to stand on the stage. As for those male disciples who hated Xing Jue but could not defeat Xing Jue, they could only place their last hope on those two people.
They hoped that they could take their place and ruthlessly teach Xing Jue a lesson in order to vent the displeasure in their hearts.
* whoosh *
However, just when everyone thought that Xing Jue and the other two were going to carry out the final battle, a man's figure suddenly landed on the stage.
When everyone saw that man, they could not help but be shocked because he was not a disciple fighting for the Power Ranking. He was a disciple on the Power Ranking, ranked ninth on the Power Ranking, Bao Hui.
However, just when everyone was puzzled as to why Bao Hui would leap onto the stage, Bao Hui's loud and clear voice rang out.
"I, Bao Hui, have been entrusted by the elders to help everyone complete the final fight for the Power Ranking."
"This method is very simple. Wan Duan can endure 20 bouts in my hands. As for you, as long as someone is able to endure 10 bouts in my hands, you can obtain the title of Wan Duan, ranked tenth on the Power Ranking."
Bao Hui stood on the stage and was filled with arrogance. His gaze when he looked at Xing Jue and the others was filled with contempt.
"Hmph. Then let me experience senior brother Bao's skills." After hearing Bao Hui's words, one of the men pounced towards Bao Hui.
He trained in close combat skills. His strength was powerful and his speed was extremely fast. It could be seen that he had grasped two types of combat skills, attack and agility. Moreover, he was very skilled and could be considered as one of the top disciples in the Central Academy.
* whoosh whoosh whoosh *
However, after the man attacked, Bao Hui also instantly counterattacked. Moreover, he also used a close combat skill. No matter if it was his strength or speed, he was much faster than the man.
Bang!
After the seventh exchange of blows between the two, the man was struck by Bao Hui's palm and was sent flying. He fell miserably outside the fighting ring.
"Seven rounds is also not bad. If the two of them are unable to endure for seven rounds, the tenth place on the 'Strong Ranking' will be yours."
Bao Hui said with a faint smile after defeating the man. His words were the greatest mockery to the man. At the same time, he also looked down on Xing Jue and Luo Yunyang.
"I would also like to experience Senior Brother Bao's skills."
Swish!
At this moment, another man actually attacked first. After rising into the air, he attacked Bao Hui. His attack was very elegant, but it was also very powerful. It was a long-range battle technique.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
However, Bao Hui remained fearless in the face of the man's attack. He didn't even try to dodge. Instead, he threw out several punches. The sky was filled with fist shadows as he counterattacked the man.
"Wuwa!"
Under Bao Hui's counterattack, the man's attacks completely collapsed. Moreover, after the sixth punch landed on Bao Hui, he was struck down.
"Junior brother, I'm really sorry. I forgot to tell you that I'm actually most proficient in long-range battle techniques." Bao Hui smiled in satisfaction as he looked at the man lying below the fighting ring whose face was filled with unwillingness.
Phew!
Bao Hui had used lightning quick methods to defeat the two disciples who had gone through layers of selection before they could stand on the fighting ring. This caused a huge uproar in the crowd.
"The disciples on the 'Strong Ranking' are indeed extraordinary."
"Bao Hui really lives up to his name of being ranked ninth on the 'Strong Ranking'. Looks like those who are ranked on the 'Strong Ranking' are all dragons amongst men. They are not existences we can compare to."
"That's right. They're clearly at the same level and are using the same level of battle techniques, but their strength is so great. I have to admit that the difference between people is really too great." At that moment, everyone was amazed by the strength Bao Hui had displayed, while Bao Hui enjoyed the crowd's praises very much.
Only Xing Jue did not care. A faint smile hung from the corner of his mouth, as if he was looking at a clown as he stared at the proud Bao Hui before him.
"Oh, this junior brother is called Xing Jue, right?"
"I didn't expect you to be so favored by the women of the Heavenly Music Club. Looks like you really do have some unusual methods when it comes to women."
"However, it's a pity that a battle between men can't be settled with flowery words."
"If you don't have the strength, I'll make you lose in an even more unsightly manner than the two of them," Bao Hui viciously said, seemingly feeling Xing Jue's disdainful gaze.
His words were filled with envy and jealousy. It could be seen that this existence, who was ranked ninth on the 'Strong Ranking', was also unhappy that Xing Jue was favored by the members of the Heavenly Music Club.
"Ha, senior brother Bao Hui is right. In a fight between men, only true strength can determine the victor."
"I, Xing Jue, am indeed ashamed to be loved by so many senior and junior sisters. Today, I'll use senior brother Bao to prove it."
"I, Xing Jue, do not rely on flowery words to be welcomed by beauties, but my strength." Xing Jue calmly smiled in response to Bao Hui's direct provocation.
"Haha, what a joke. Using me to prove your strength? Don't tell me you can defeat me? "
"Even Wan Duan can scare you and invite Yao Di to be your shield. I, Bao Hui, can beat you until even your mother can't recognize you." Looking at Xing Jue's calm appearance, the rage in Bao Hui's heart became even more intense.
"I, Xing Jue, will soon let you know whether I, Xing Jue, have the strength or not."
Swoosh!
Suddenly, Xing Jue took a step forward. His entire body had already turned into a ray of light. Like an arrow that had left the bow, he was even more like a bolt of lightning. In an instant, he had already arrived in front of Bao Hui.
"To beat you, I, Xing Jue, only need a single move!"
Xing Jue was so fast that by the time Bao Hui could react, Xing Jue's powerful hand had already landed on his neck. Like a lock, it firmly locked him in place, preventing him from struggling.
At the same time, he felt a boundless pressure envelop his body. The pressure was so powerful that he was actually unable to resist.
At that moment, Bao Hui actually felt fear. Such a powerful pressure was not something that an expert of the same level could give him.
Boom!
Xing Jue grabbed Bao Hui's neck with one hand and suddenly pressed down. Bao Hui was actually forcefully pressed to the ground by Xing Jue. Moreover, a clear crack appeared on the stage behind him.
It had to be known that the stage was made from a special material. It was incomparably tough. Xing Jue did not use any battle skills. With just his own strength, he was able to cause such damage. From this, it could be seen just how terrifying Xing Jue's strength was.
Under Xing Jue's strength, Bao Hui had long since foamed at the mouth. His eyeballs rolled back, and he fainted.
"This … this … this …"
"He actually defeated Bao Hui, who is ranked ninth on the Power Ranking, in a single move. How is that possible?!"
"Heavens, how can Xing Jue be so strong? He's too strong, too strong!"
Although Xing Jue's speed was too fast earlier, and very few people could clearly see Xing Jue's movements, they could clearly see that Bao Hui had been knocked unconscious by Xing Jue in a single move.
At that moment, the most awkward people were none other than the male disciples who had looked down on Xing Jue and felt that Xing Jue only relied on women to make a living. That was because they finally realized how ignorant they were.
That was because they finally knew that the reason Xing Jue attracted those female disciples was not because of his flowery words or his handsome appearance. Instead, it was because he possessed great strength. A strength that could even easily defeat a disciple on the Power Ranking.
Compared to the male disciples' awkwardness, the adoration in the eyes of the female disciples became even more intense. Xing Jue had a dignified appearance and was definitely a handsome man.
Furthermore, not only was Xing Jue's strength outstanding, he was also so young. His future potential was practically limitless. Such a Xing Jue had already become the partner in the hearts of the majority of the female disciples.
At that moment, countless female disciples felt regret. They regretted that they did not have a pair of eyes that could recognize geniuses, and missed the best opportunity to get to know Xing Jue.
As a result, the current Xing Jue was already so close to the most outstanding female disciple of the Everlasting Academy, Yao Di.
Facing an opponent like Yao Di, they knew that they no longer had any chance. The only thing they could do was regret, regret that they had missed out on such an outstanding male disciple like Xing Jue.
"Brother Ouyang, this is your fault. Why didn't you tell me that such a disciple had appeared in the supermonastery? Why didn't you directly send him to the central academy? "
Within the plaza, all the disciples were exclaiming and sighing incessantly. All kinds of complicated emotions were constantly playing out. In the Elder's seating area, Elder Taishi, who was one of the four Grand Elders, grumbled to Elder Ouyang beside him.
As an Elder of the central academy, he had always been roaming all over the Ming Country, unearthing outstanding disciples and bringing them back to the central academy. He would do his best to nurture them so that they could become outstanding successors for the Everlasting Academy.
Yet, he was only able to discover such an outstanding disciple like Xing Jue today. It really made him feel as if he regretted not having met him earlier. It also let him know that there were actually outstanding disciples in the supermonastery.
"I announce that Xing Jue will become the first in the central academy's Strong Ranking …" At that moment, the situation of the battle was already clear. The Elder who was in charge of this battle stood up and was about to announce the result of this battle.
"Elder, Xing Jue has a matter that he would like to consult you on." Before the Elder could finish speaking, Xing Jue loudly asked.
"Xing Jue, what is it? Ask away." Seeing this, the Elder smiled and replied.
"Today, it is rare for all the Elders and seniors to be gathered here."
"I, Xing Jue, will not keep you in suspense. Actually, my target is not the tenth in the Strong Ranking, nor is it the ninth. Instead, it is the fourth."
"Therefore, I would like to ask Elder if I can issue a challenge to the seniors on the Strong Ranking here?!"
"This …"
The moment Xing Jue's words left his mouth, it was undoubtedly like a sudden clap of thunder. It caused everyone to be unable to believe their own ears and once again caused the entire place to be shocked.
In the face of everyone making a fuss about nothing, only Yao Di, Lin Shishi, Elder Ouyang and the others who understood Xing Jue had smiles on their faces as they looked at Xing Jue in high spirits.
