After glancing around, Lin Yao discovered that many boys were looking at him with envy, jealousy, and hatred. This was especially so when they discovered that their beloved goddess was also looking at Lin Yao. Their envy quickly turned into malice.
"That scoundrel. I want to go up and beat him up."
"Count me in."
"He's too showy."
"Men should rely on their muscles. Why do they have to be so fancy?"
Amidst the admiring gazes of the girls and the angry gazes of the boys, the students quickly gathered. Soon, all the students in the school had gathered together.
After all the students had gathered, the school leaders went on stage after a while. After a speech about looking forward to the future, Lin Yao and the other students who needed to participate in the battle also went up to the high platform to receive the attention of the students.
However, as they stepped onto the stage, a funny scene appeared.
There were 20 ordinary classes in Grade Three, and three people would be selected from each class. There would be a total of 60 students.
These students used to be the representatives of the class and were elite students. However, this time, out of the 60 students on stage, 59 of them were wearing special goggles. Due to the advanced technology, the goggles were now in the form of sunglasses, which was convenient to wear.
However, 59 big shots wearing sunglasses went up to the high platform, and the scene of the students fighting against each other turned into a scene of extreme big shots going on stage.
Looking at the group of big shots wearing sunglasses, the entire place fell silent for a moment. After a breath's time, a loud burst of laughter rang out.
"Pfft, pfft, pfft. I'm dying of laughter. What is this? Are the extreme big shots making a debut in a group?"
"This is shocking. There are 60 extreme big shots in Ninghai No. 4 High School's class sparring. I've even thought of the press release."
"It's a pity that they only brought the magic mirror. If they wore a black suit, it would be even more eye-catching."
There was constant laughter in the audience, and the school leaders were having a headache. The elite students who went on stage also felt embarrassed.
In the end, everyone turned to look at Lin Yao.
The look in their eyes made it very clear that it was all his fault.
The corners of Lin Yao's mouth twitched as everyone stared at him. He hadn't expected that his combat skills could change the style of the students.
"Cough, cough, cough. Everyone, silence. The battle begins now."
The school's higher-ups didn't want to say anything more. Soon, the sixty people in the twenty classes were divided into two groups and began to fight.
Since Lin Yao and the others were low-level martial artists, they did not have many vital energy seeds in their bodies. Therefore, they could not fight for a long time. Therefore, the school did not allow Lin Yao and the others to finish the competition in one go. Today was mainly to determine the top eight, and tomorrow would be the final battle.
However, the division of battles could be said to be random, but this was simply impossible. Under the school's secret manipulation, the probability of powerhouses meeting each other was very small.
"Thirty people, we have to decide the top four. Unless there's a bye, I'll have to fight three matches today."
The first round was to advance to 15 out of 30. Lin Yao was considered lucky. He did not encounter the top 10 seeds. Instead, he encountered a young genius who was about the same level as Li Peng.
"Lin Yao of Class 4 versus Zhan Xia of Class 7."
As the crowd spoke, Lin Yao stepped onto the platform. As he walked, strange thoughts surfaced in his mind.
"Speaking of which, Li Peng, the first genius in our class to break through to a martial artist, seems to have become a basic unit in the competition of the whole year."
Although it was somewhat disrespectful to say this, he was indeed the weakest in the competition of the whole year.
However, while Lin Yao was thinking of others, Zhan Xia was thinking of Lin Yao as well.
\ 'Did I encounter this guy? Although he is not good, he is not bad either. He has just broken through to a martial artist, and his strength is very low. He has relied on sudden attacks to get this far. With the sunglasses to suppress his strong light, I might be able to advance.\'
Under the instructions of the coach, Lin Yao and Zhan Xia stood apart. After performing the martial artist etiquette on each other, the referee stood aside and raised his hand, ready to wave it down at any time.
Due to Lin Yao's Sword-Drawing Technique and handsome appearance, he attracted a large group of people on the stage.
"Lin Yao, you can do it."
"Lin Yao, you are the best."
"Beat him up."
"Smash his face with a hammer."
"Zhan Xia, you can do it."
Among the many cheers, all the girls were cheering for Lin Yao, while the boys were cheering for Zhan Xia.
It had to be said that the boys were much louder than the girls, and the cheers for Zhan Xia soon drowned out the cheers for Lin Yao. Although the two of them were the weakest martial artists in the competition, the battle had attracted the attention of countless people.
Qin Xue and Yan Yan were also among them. They were a little dumbfounded when they saw Lin Yao, who had added special effects. At the same time, when Lin Yao returned to the class, the scene of him receiving condolences from countless girls also made the two of them feel inexplicably unhappy. However, Lin Yao had almost nothing to do with them, so they could only suppress their unhappiness in their hearts.
At that moment, Qin Xue's unhappiness disappeared as she listened to the cheers that were aimed at his face. Worry filled her heart.
"Will Student Lin Yao get hurt?"
Before Yan Yan could ask this question, a boy in her class pushed up his glasses and answered, "It's hard to say.
Student Lin Yao is very strong. He alone forced more than 50 people to wear sunglasses. However, his advantages and weaknesses are obvious. His strength lies in the Flashing Sword-Drawing Technique. Now, the special explosion-proof goggles have weakened Student Lin Yao's glare. Although it can still affect him a little, Zhan Xia's strength surpasses Student Lin Yao's. The chances of winning this competition are 50-50, and it all depends on his performance on the spot. "
After he finished his analysis, the teacher in the arena, who was the referee, suddenly waved his hand.
"Let the competition begin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yao bent his body and rushed out like a leopard before the other party could make a move.
"He actually took the initiative to attack."
Upon seeing Lin Yao rushing toward him, Zhan Xia subconsciously wanted to lower his head despite wearing the goggles. However, he did not dare to do so. He could only squint and stare at Lin Yao, bending his body and assuming a defensive posture.
Clang!
As soon as he assumed a defensive posture, Lin Yao had already arrived beside him with the momentum. Lin Yao stopped in his tracks and drew his right hand. A bright and beautiful sword gleam was drawn from his waist.
When Lin Yao drew his sword, Zhan Xia, who was in a defensive posture, subconsciously moved his hands, trying to stop Lin Yao's sword gleam.
He was indeed capable and had combat skills. His family was considered wealthy, so the combat skill he used was not the common military boxing. Instead, it was the gold combat skill — Capturing Dragon and Controlling Crane. This was a move that specialized in capturing and could also absorb objects through the air.
With this move, he had become the top student in Class 7. At that moment, his hands turned into claws, as if he was trying to capture a dragon and control a crane, and he wanted to pull Lin Yao's sword gleam into his palm.
He succeeded, but something beyond his expectations happened.
Zhan Xia was elated when he pulled Lin Yao's sword gleam into his palm.
\ 'I got you.\'
This was his thought, but as soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he felt that something was wrong.
A huge force came from the sword.
\ 'Oh, no.\'
Just as he sensed danger, there was a loud bang, and Zhan Xia felt as if he had sucked in a bomb.
The violent impact sent his hands flying high into the air. With one blow, Zhan Xia found himself in an empty space.
Before he could stabilize his footing, the long sword that had been drawn had reached its peak. At that moment, Lin Yao was no longer holding the sword with one hand. Instead, he held the hilt with both hands and slammed the sword downward with the force of splitting a mountain.
"Ha!"
With a loud shout, the ironwood long sword slashed down with endless power. Zhan Xia barely managed to raise his arms in the face of such an attack.
At the same time, his face was full of indignation.
\ 'This shouldn\'t be happening. We are both martial artists, but how can you be so powerful?\'
He roared and unleashed his vital energy seeds. However, this was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. With a loud bang, Zhan Xia, who had raised his arms to block the attack, was sent flying backward. He fell to the ground, clutching his arms in pain and unable to get up again.
Zhan Xia was defeated after two moves. He drew the sword and slashed it downward.
His defeat caused the scene to fall silent, and the elite students on the stage looked at Lin Yao in surprise.
They were not surprised by Zhan Xia\'s defeat. Even though Zhan Xia was wearing sunglasses, the strong light could still affect him. With this advantage, Lin Yao had a chance of winning.
However, Lin Yao had not used any dirty tricks in this duel. He had crushed Zhan Xia with his powerful strength, just like when Zhou Yang had fought against Li Peng.
However, Zhou Yang was tall and had been born with divine strength, while Lin Yao had a normal posture. How could he have the same effect as Zhou Yang?
