On the stage, the moment Ying Baiwu and the vegetative patient started fighting, a huge commotion broke out.
When the iron-headed girl's arrow hit the cloaked student's body, it shattered into countless specks of light, just like glass being smashed.
"What's going on?"
"I'm not sure. It should be some kind of dark secret art!"
"Hehe, this girl has finally met her nemesis."
The spectators discussed. Those examinees who had lost to Ying Baiwu were rejoicing in her misfortune.
Ying Baiwu executed the Wind King Divine Steps and abruptly pulled away. After that, she channeled force into her arm and pulled the bowstring.
Swish!
Spirit qi gushed out from her fingers, forming a gorgeous translucent arrow on the bow. Because the spirit qi disturbance was too intense, thumb-sized tornadoes appeared in the surroundings.
Wind King Roar!
BOOM!
The arrow whistled out. Everywhere it passed by, the air currents it brought along blew away the dust on the ground. In fact, even the tough marble floor was torn apart, forming a ravine.
For a time, crushed rocks flew everywhere.
Although the ravine wasn't deep, the destructive force was terrifying.
Sadly, it was still useless!
BOOM!
The arrow hit the vegetative patient's body. Then, just like before, it shattered and disappeared, not causing any damage.
Ying Baiwu didn't even frown. She hung the bow on her shoulder and pulled out her sword, lunging toward the vegetative patient.
She was going to engage in close combat.
Upon seeing this scene, Mei Ziyu was stunned. After that, she involuntarily clapped.
The major characters on the judging panel also started to applaud.
If the archery she was most proficient in was ineffective against her opponent, she would definitely feel worried, suspicious, and nervous. In fact, she would keep thinking about how to break out of this situation. However, this girl didn't do so. She directly abandoned her bow and changed to a sword, rushing over.
Leaving aside whether this battle strategy was correct or not, just the determination, calmness, and decisiveness in her actions were enough to make people admire her.
Naturally, the most important thing was still her courage.
If it was the majority of people, in a situation where they didn't understand why the arrow would be ineffective, they would definitely choose to dodge.
Because the unknown was the most terrifying. However, this girl's head was really tough.
"This student is really gutsy!"
Liang Hongda clicked his tongue in wonder. Admiration could be seen in his eyes.
"Why? Vice Sect Leader Liang's heart is moved? "
A big shot teased him because Liang Hongda also majored in archery.
"Yeah, it's hard to find an unpolished jade!"
Liang Hongda sighed and looked at his assistant. "I heard that this girl was a swill carrier two years ago? Was it dug out by Sun Mo? "
"Yes!"
The assistant was already familiar with the resumes of these students. He was just worried that the big boss would take a fancy to someone and he couldn't answer the question. That would be terrible.
"Tsk tsk, Sun Mo's judgment is amazing!"
Liang Hongda praised, once again having the thought of roping Sun Mo in.
In the great teacher world, there were many great teachers with foresight, but most of them were old. Their foresight was tempered through years or even decades of experience, having seen many students.
There weren't many young people like Sun Mo who had such sharp judgment at such a young age.
"God Hands are amazing!"
A big shot suddenly sighed.
"Hehe!"
Liang Hongda smiled. God Hands my ass. Sun Mo couldn't possibly be so bored as to check the body of a girl who was carrying swill, right?
Sun Mo must have seen this girl doing something that piqued his interest.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Liang Hongda + 20. Friendly (310/1,000).
One couldn't help but say that this vice sect leader did have some capabilities.
"Vice Alliance Leader Liang, there are many students you want. I'll introduce a few to you in the future!"
Mei Yazhi suddenly spoke.
"Sure!"
Liang Hongda had a smile on his face, but he was cursing in his heart. He knew that Mei Yazhi was reminding him not to snatch Sun Mo's students.
(Damn, who would dislike having too many good students?)
This was especially so for those with godly archery talent.
In the cultivation world, there were many conventional weapons like sabers, swords, and hammers that could be used to perfection. However, longbows were simply too rare.
Look at history, there were so many famous generals, but how many godly archers were there? One could tell how rare this occupation was.
Moreover, even a group of good students would be classified into different grades. Ying Baiwu was definitely at the top tier.
No, she should be the only one, right?
When Liang Hongda saw Ying Baiwu engaging in close combat, he couldn't help but want to say something to guide her. (Don't be afraid. Even if you use a longbow, you can still win.)
It was a pity that he couldn't because she was Sun Mo's personal student.
"Damn, what kind of dogshit luck does Sun Mo have?"
Liang Hongda's emotions were in a mess. He felt that there was a need for him to discuss this with Ying Baiwu. If not, her talent in archery would be wasted by Sun Mo.
"Teacher Mei, what's going on?"
Lu Zhiruo was dumbfounded. Her little face was filled with worry. Her junior martial sister was going to lose!
"Zhiruo, don't be rude!"
Sun Mo reminded her. Asking about other people's secrets was a great taboo in the great teacher world.
"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just because of my body!"
Mei Ziyu felt a little embarrassed. Although the examiners weren't able to find out about the vegetative patient's secret through the dark secret art, it was still against the rules after all.
"There's a body that can negate spirit qi arrows?"
The papaya girl blinked and recalled those books she had read before. Eh, there really seemed to be such a thing. However, such people were extremely rare. If they were discovered, they would surely be protected by the Saint Gate. Li Ziqi frowned.
Li Ziqi frowned. She kept feeling that there was something wrong with that caped personal student.
"This is a personal disciple battle. There's no rule that only people can participate."
Sun Mo could tell that Mei Ziyu was conflicted and persuaded her. Letting Ying Baiwu fight against the vegetative patient could be considered a rare experience.
"Ah?"
Mei Ziyu's heart thumped and she subconsciously stared at Sun Mo. (It can't be, right? He actually saw through it?
No, even my mother who is the most familiar with me probably hasn't discovered it yet. How can Sun Mo...)
(Right, he must have said it casually.)
After that, this girl with waist-length black hair saw that Sun Mo's gaze was filled with calmness and consolation. He didn't seem to be angry at the fact that his opponent had violated the rules.
All of a sudden, Mei Ziyu panicked and felt a strong sense of self-blame in her heart.
"Teacher, if the one participating isn't a human, what else could it be?"
The papaya girl was shocked and a little scared. She involuntarily hugged Sun Mo's arm tightly. "Could it be that there's a dead person?"
"I haven't fought against a dead person before!"
Xuanyuan Po was eager to give it a try.
At this moment, the vegetative patient on the stage was initially evenly matched against Ying Baiwu. However, he was kicked by the iron-headed girl and fell off the stage.
Thus, the entire hall fell silent.
This result was a little unexpected.
Sun Mo was stunned. After that, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. He lowered his voice and persuaded, "Teacher Mei, you don't have to do this!"
Sun Mo knew that Mei Ziyu was the one who instructed the vegetative patient to accidentally land on the ground.
"Sorry!"
Mei Ziyu mumbled softly.
Actually, Hei Changzhi came here this time around because he wanted to take the examination together with Sun Mo and leave behind a beautiful memory. Since he had already obtained the great teacher title, it didn't matter anymore.
Seeing Sun Mo and Mei Ziyu whispering to each other, Gu Xiuxun's lips twitched, feeling a little disappointed.
"For this round, Ying Baiwu is victorious!"
Tong Yiming announced.
The quarterfinals continued.
When it was Group C's turn, Zhang Yaozong went up.
"Yanzong, all the best!"
Gu Xiuxun cheered loudly. She originally wanted to give Zhang Yaozong some pointers to prove her guidance capabilities. But who knew that two minutes later, Zhang Yaozong would be knocked off the stage by that girl named Zhou Yao.
He had lost without being able to retaliate.
"Teacher, I'm sorry!"
Zhang Yaozong looked dejected.
"You're only fifteen. Keep working hard!"
Gu Xiuxun encouraged.
"Xuanyuan Po, that Zhou Yao is very powerful. I reckon that she's even stronger than you!"
Zhang Yaozong reminded. If Xuanyuan Po obtained first place in Group D, he would have to fight against Zhou Yao.
"Watch how I crush her with my hammer and take revenge for you!"
Xuanyuan Po punched his fists together.
"..."
Zhang Yaozong silently mused that he was reminding her out of goodwill. He didn't want her to take revenge for him. But forget it, it was too tiring to talk to a combat brain like her.
Very soon, it was the turn of Group D's turn.
"Zhang Yaozong, Ding Yi, get up the stage!"
Tong Yiming announced.
"Did I annihilate the entire Ding Clan in my past life?"
Xuanyuan Po scratched his head. "Why is it another person with the surname Ding?"
"Xuanyuan, be careful!"
Jiang Leng had a heavy expression on his face as he warned. This person was called Ding Yi, and it was clear that he was a tough character.
Two students went up the stage.
Tong Yiming stared at Ding Yi until he didn't see any spirit runes on his body. Only then did he feel at ease. If not, he would suspect that these people were here to create trouble.
Actually, names like Ding Ji were very common because many students' parents weren't cultured. Tong Yiming had seen many people named Daniu and Goudan before.
(But if you guys have spirit runes on your bodies, you have to be on your guard.)
Did Bai Wenzhang not consider this problem?
No, because these children were experimental subjects. He wouldn't mind if he lost them. In any case, it was fine as long as he obtained the data.
Ding Yi's weapon was a three-meter-long halberd. From the looks of it, it weighed at least 100 jin. It was unknown how a fifteen-year-old child could wield it.
"Xuanyuan Po, spirit-refinement realm. Please guide me!"
"Ding Yi, spirit-refinement realm. Please guide me!"
After the two of them exchanged their greetings, Xuanyuan Po rushed toward Ding Yi as usual. (Observing the battle situation? Impossible. This daddy's style is to charge forward recklessly!)
Ding Yi stepped back with his right foot and brandished his halberd with a single hand.
Dang!
The long spear and great halberd collided. A loud metallic sound echoed through the entire battle dojo, causing the spectators to feel their teeth aching. They subconsciously covered their ears.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The two of them clashed head-on, but neither of them moved an inch.
What was a ferocious general?
That was it!
One man guarding the pass, ten thousand wouldn't be able to pass!
Xuanyuan Po and Ding Yi didn't use any moves. It was just a clash of strength. Whoever was weaker would be sent flying.
"It can't be, right? The combat addict actually lost in terms of strength? "
Zhang Yaozong was shocked. Among people of the same age as him, he was considered a man of great strength. But when he wrestled with Xuanyuan Po, he couldn't even last three breaths. This Ding Yi's stature was half a head shorter than him and wasn't muscular at all. Where did his strength come from?
"The enhancement brought about by spirit runes is actually so strong?"
Sun Mo frowned and stared at Ding Yi. If there were no negative effects, wouldn't spirit runes be able to mass-produce experts?
Through Divine Sight, Sun Mo actually couldn't see any hidden dangers in Ding Yi's body.
Didn't this mean that Ding Yi was a perfect experimental subject?
