Peng Leyun defeated Ann Chaoyang for the third time in three years, showing that he was only half a step away from the Inhuman Stage. In the following battle, he defeated Piao Yuan with his exhausted body and completed the feat of one versus two!
After Xu Wannian defeated Xing Jingjing with his "Corvine Mouth", Huahai bade farewell to the national competition with the worst result in the past five years and bid farewell to the former champion, Ann Chaoyang.
The sleeping tiger left quietly, leaving only a lonely figure in the hearts of the audience of this year's Martial Arts Tournament, the lonely figure after losing to Lou Cheng.
Passion is no match for strength, and passion is no match for God.
…
April 21st, 9: 07 in the morning.
A portal released an exclusive interview with Huahai University Martial Arts Club, in which Piao Yuan and Ann Chaoyang described in detail the characteristics of Lou Cheng's newly mastered simplified physical invulnerability, suspecting that it was the Internal Explosion Punch of the Fire Sect.
Hearing this, the audience was in an uproar. They didn't expect Lou Cheng, a direct disciple of the Ice God Sect, to have inherited the Fire Sect. Many people began to think that he had a close relationship with the Longhu Club.
In the fan forum, "Brahman" was jubilant, posting photos to congratulate Lou Cheng. Her cute and tender appearance attracted many strange uncles and aunts.
In the forum of the Longhu Club, moderators such as "Pig-Riding Knight", active IDs such as "Above the Sky" and "A Plumber Eating Mushrooms" were seriously discussing the possibility of Lou Cheng joining the club in the future, and even thinking of a better nickname for him. This made Lou Cheng, who was silently eavesdropping on their conversation, feel a little ashamed. He couldn't think of a satisfactory nickname to lead the trend after a long time.
…
April 21st, 3: 30 in the afternoon.
Because of the widely known relationship between Lou Cheng and "Dragon King", the odds set by the gambling companies changed again. Capital's odds went up, while Songcheng University's went down. The difference was almost negligible.
In the various gambling shops, many "hobbyists" who wandered around all year round finished studying the bets and made their choices. In addition, the audience who usually didn't set foot in this area entered these shops or placed bets online with the mentality of gambling for fun.
…
April 22nd, 7: 11 in the evening.
At the entrance of the Martial Arts Arena of the Capital, the audience from all directions had formed a long line.
Ding Yixin, who was holding popcorn and eating roasted sausages, looked around and said excitedly to Qiu Hailin, Du Yiyin, and the others, "There are really so many people!"
After the semi-finals were confirmed, the Capital Academy Martial Arts Club took advantage of the fact that they were fighting in their home territory and obtained the right to sell some tickets so that their supporters could come to the venue to cheer. Qiu Hailin, on the other hand, used her connections in the Student Union to successfully buy tickets for all four of her roommates.
"I'm thinking about a problem …" Du Yiyin was influenced by the singing and dancing of the audience around her.
"What's the problem?" Qiu Hailin exposed her smooth forehead and asked blankly.
"Yixin is such a love-struck fool. Will she support our school's Martial Arts Club or Lou Cheng?" Du Yiyin looked at Ding Yixin, whose cheeks were bulging as she ate.
Ding Yixin was stunned when she heard that. She swallowed half a mouthful of roasted intestines.
"I'll cheer for the Martial Arts Club with you guys, but I'll still hope for Lou Cheng to win. I'll devote myself to the school and my heart to him!"
"Eh, why does that sound so familiar …" Qiu Hailin was both amused and confused.
Just then, they saw a group of boys in checkered shirts passing by with banners in their hands and heard them shouting,
"Ren Li! Ren Li! "
In such a lively atmosphere, similar shouts could be heard constantly, half joking and half venting.
…
April 22nd, 7: 23 pm.
With the lighting and camera in place, the live broadcast began.
"Welcome to the two semi-finals of this year's University Martial Arts Competition. First, Songcheng University versus Capital, and then Shanbei versus Guangnan." The host, Liu Chang, said with a professional smile, "Tonight, I'll be commentating with our old friend, Chen Sansheng!"
"Thank you, everyone. Thank you, Liu Chang." Chen Sansheng put his palms together and shook his head with a smile.
After a short exchange of greetings, the live broadcast switched back to the scene, showing the audience in front of the screen the gradually filled stands.
It was obvious that Capital's supporters were quite organized. They occupied one side of the stands, holding banners, drawing sketches, blowing horns, or singing cheerfully, which ignited the enthusiasm of the onlookers. As for the other audience, some were wearing Songcheng University's white martial arts suit with black edges, and some were holding cartoon figures of Lou Cheng, Lin Que, and Yan Zheke. They were scattered, each forming their own formation.
…
April 22nd, 7: 29 pm.
Yan Xiaoling climbed out of bed and sat in front of the desk. She set up the computer and took out the snacks. While refreshing the forum and chatting with Brahman and Unparalleled Dragon King to liven up the atmosphere, she turned off the bullet screen and listened to Chen Sansheng and Liu Chang's commentary.
Behind her, Mu Jinnian held a string of Bodhi beads in her left hand and prayed before the competition.
…
April 22nd, 7: 35 pm.
In the locker room of Songcheng University Martial Arts Club, Geezer Shi clapped his hands to wake up Lou Cheng and the others who were resting with their eyes closed.
He coughed and said, "Let's not think about Capital's formation today. Let's do our best and challenge them in our strongest form!
"Lou Cheng, Lin Que, Yan Zheke, from strong to weak, form a long spear charging momentum. Fight one by one until you run out of ammunition and food!
"If Capital doesn't have Ren Li first, then you should try to beat Chen Diguo and the others quickly and seize the opportunity. If you meet Ren Li in the beginning, I don't need to say anything more, right?
"Don't think about saving anything for the finals. Don't worry about fatigue and injuries. Hey, if you lose, it's useless to think about these things!
"Do you understand?"
Lou Cheng, Lin Que, Yan Zheke, and the others took a deep breath and answered in unison,
"Yes!"
…
April 22nd, 7: 36 pm.
In the locker room of Capital College Martial Arts Club, Shen You, who was also a part-time coach, looked around with a slightly listless left eye and said with a faint smile,
"Do you remember what happened after the finals last year?"
In the finals last year, Capital College lost to Shanbei by a small margin and failed to win the championship.
Hearing Shen You's words, whether it was Chen Diguo, Jiang Jingfeng, or Jiang Kongchan, who were the main players in last year's final, or Jiang Kongchan, who was a newcomer at that time, they all recalled the sad and sentimental scenes and remembered that they had held hands and shouted "Next year's champion".
"Remember! How can we not remember? We are the team that is destined to win the championship this year! " Chen Diguo clenched his fists and shook them. "After the final match, I will go to Peng Leyun and the others as the winner and pretentiously say my favorite quote from the novel: 'Pain is my friend. Please allow me to introduce it to you!'
Shen You smiled and nodded. She stood up and said,
"It's good that you still remember. Our goal is to win the championship, and from now on, we will meet the two strongest opponents. There is no room for any slack or contempt!"
"We have walked for a year and finally come here again. Now, we can't 'walk' like before. We have to sprint, sprint!"
"Sprint!" Chen Diguo and Jiang Kongchan's fighting spirit was completely ignited. Ren Li also put away her usual absent-mindedness and joined them, shouting out all the pent-up emotions in her heart.
…
April 22nd, 7: 40 pm.
In the locker rooms of both sides,
Lou Cheng and the others once again formed a circle, half bent down, one hand on the shoulder of the person next to them, and the other hand in the center, overlapping each other.
Ren Li, Chen Diguo and Jiang Kongchan stretched out their fists and touched each other in the air.
"Victory!" Lou Cheng, Cai Zongming and the others shouted crazily.
"Sprint!" The main force and substitutes of Capital College Martial Arts Club shouted together and bumped fists.
Clang!
The doors of both locker rooms were opened at the same time, and the outside light shone in with the rolling sound waves.
…
April 22nd, 7: 41 pm.
When the referee stepped into the ring, the announcer of the martial arts arena said in a hoarse voice,
"The roster of Capital College Martial Arts Club is arranged in order: Ren Li, Chen Diguo, Jiang Kongchan!"
In the burst of cheers, he continued to announce,
"The roster of Songcheng University Martial Arts Club is Lou Cheng, Lin Que, Yan Zheke!"
Before his voice died away, the whole arena boiled up, excluding all the noise. It was definitely over 125 decibels!
There was no need for anyone to say anything. Everyone was very clear about what the first battle was!
…
April 22nd, 7: 45 pm.
The semi-final match between Capital College Martial Arts Club and Songcheng University Martial Arts Club officially began.
The first round, Ren Li VS Lou Cheng!
