The final exam ended very quickly.
Other than the theory exam, there was also a combat exam. All the students had to take part in it.
However, Wang Teng was the only exception.
President Peng had specially approved that he didn't have to take part in the combat exam.
Peng Yuanshan knew that Wang Teng had improved a lot during his trip to the Xingwu Continent. He could tell a thing or two from Wang Teng's explanation. Asking him to take the exam with the other students in the same year was purely a blow to his pride. There was no meaning to it.
After the end of the final exam, the tense atmosphere in the campus suddenly relaxed. There was a lot of laughter, and the students could finally play happily.
Only a few students who didn't do well were probably still training crazily in the actual training building.
The students didn't leave the school immediately. Some of them stayed in the school to train, while others continued with their missions.
News about the National Number One Martial Arts Competition kept spreading. There were reports about it every day in the world of martial warriors.
To martial artists, this was an extremely grand occasion. The martial artists of the younger generation would all participate.
Since ancient times, there was no first place in literature and no second place in martial arts!
The National Number One Martial Arts Competition was named the first place because it was meant to select the most powerful person among the young martial warriors.
The winner would not only receive a huge amount of resources, but he would also gain a huge reputation. The benefits were limitless.
Hence, countless young martial warriors flocked to the competition.
The various universities were also the gathering places for young martial warriors. More than 70% of the young martial warriors were from these universities. There were fewer casual martial warriors or martial warriors from other organizations.
Hence, the news about the National Number One Martial Arts Competition was the focus of the students' attention. After all, it was closely related to them.
Even among the first-year students, many of them gathered in twos and threes to talk about this. They were excited and felt as though they could also participate in the competition.
In fact, the first-year students were still 1-star soldier-level martial warriors. None of them were qualified to participate.
At this moment, Wang Teng was eating with Hou Pingliang and the others. They were also talking about the competition.
"I remember that the champion of the competition in recent years was from The First University in Capital Xia," Hou Pingliang said as he ate.
"Three years!" Song Shuhang continued.
"Oh, that's right. The First University has won the championship for three consecutive years. However, it's not hard to understand. They have the best geniuses in the country. It's not difficult for them to nurture the strongest of the younger generation," Hou Pingliang said.
"I heard that in the past two years, the major schools have nurtured many genius martial artists. They are all strong contenders for the championship. They are holding back their anger for the sake of becoming the champion of the Martial Arts Competition. I'm afraid it won't be easy for The First University to continue winning the championship," Lu Shu interrupted.
"That's true. Senior Pang Kuo from Capital Military Academy, Senior Li Guangqi from Jinlin University, Senior Ma Xiaoxia from Donghai University, and so on are all very powerful young martial artists. It's said that they've been in the military for a long time and have been on the battlefield all year round to carry out missions. They're very strong." Song Shuhang nodded in agreement.
"Don't always boost the morale of others and diminish our prestige. The seniors in our school's fourth year are also very strong. Moreover, our Huanghai's overall strength isn't weaker than Capital Military Academy or Jinlin University. Just last year, didn't our school also get third place?" Hou Pingliang said.
"Senior Wu Hao was there last year. It's rare to see such a stunning young expert. I wonder how strong the seniors are this year?" Lu Shu frowned.
"They definitely won't be bad," Hou Pingliang said.
"Of course, I know that our school isn't bad. I'm just a little worried. After all, the school hasn't confirmed the main combatants yet," Lu Shu said.
"That's true. The other schools have already announced the list of participants. Why hasn't our school announced it yet? Could something have happened?" Song Shuhang rubbed his chin and wondered.
Wang Teng listened to the few of them discussing this matter as if they were familiar with it. He felt a little confused. Why didn't he know any of the genius martial artists they were talking about? It was as if he was a savage who had just come out of a primitive forest.
Embarrassing!
This was too embarrassing!
He had to hold it in. He couldn't let them know that he was so ignorant.
Wang Teng kept a straight face as he listened to Hou Pingliang and the others talk. He nodded and shook his head from time to time, as if he agreed with someone's opinion or felt that something was wrong. In short, he acted very well.
On the other hand, Baili Qingfeng was much calmer. He didn't pay much attention to these things. Hence, he didn't interrupt. He just listened to the few of them talk quietly, digesting all the information they revealed.
"F * ck!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise exploded from the group of people.
Wang Teng was shocked.
What the hell?
What are you yelling about? What are you screaming about?
Then, Hou Pingliang, Lu Shu, and the others looked at Wang Teng as if they had seen a ghost.
"Brother Teng, are you going to participate in the National Number One Martial Arts Competition?" Hou Pingliang gulped as he asked in disbelief.
"Eh, I haven't received any notice. How did you know?" Wang Teng looked at them in surprise.
"That means you are really going to participate." The few of them instantly understood what Wang Teng meant. Their faces were full of shock.
Hou Pingliang pointed at his phone and said, "It's already announced!"
It turned out that the few of them had just talked about the fact that the school hadn't announced the list of participants. Hence, they went to the official website to check. In the end, they found out that the list of participants had been released today.
And Wang Teng's name was on it.
The few of them rubbed their eyes a few times before they confirmed that they hadn't seen wrongly. It was really Wang Teng's name.
The main thing was that there was an introduction behind the name. Once they checked, it was confirmed. It was the guy in front of them who was eating with them as if nothing had happened.
"So it's already announced? They didn't even tell me. I wasn't mentally prepared at all. "Wang Teng shook his head and said.
"Hey, hey, that's not the main point." Hou Pingliang was going crazy. "The main point is that you are only in your first year. Why are you going to participate in the National Number One Martial Arts Competition? Are you confident?"
As he spoke, he suddenly felt that it wasn't right for him to criticize Wang Teng as his friend. He hurriedly said, "No, I'm not looking down on you. It's just that the participants are all extremely powerful and talented martial artists. Furthermore, they have cultivated for a few more years than you. If you compete with them now, you won't stand a chance."
"That's right. You don't have to participate now. In a few years, you might even be able to bring back a champion for Huanghai." Baili Qingfeng's face was filled with astonishment. He couldn't help but speak up.
"Sit, sit, sit. Why are you all so agitated? Even if I don't stand a chance, it's not a bad idea to broaden my horizons," Wang Teng said calmly.
