Zishan County had a total of sixty-eight cities.
Apart from the county capital, the other sixty-seven cities were of different sizes. However, the number of students that Zishan Academy recruited was the same, ten.
The county capital was the center of power and economy in Zishan County. It was also the most prosperous area for martial arts. There were countless top-notch martial arts families, and the number of students they had was a lot more than the sixty-seven ordinary cities.
In other words, Zishan Academy had a total of seven hundred and seventy students.
Of these seven hundred and seventy students, seven hundred were in the ordinary class, and seventy were in the genius class.
Of the seventy geniuses, the county capital had thirty, and the other sixty-seven cities only had forty.
On average, each city had less than one genius class student. In other words, even the number one genius of a certain city only had a seventy percent chance of being accepted into the genius class.
If the number one genius only had a seventy percent chance, the second place chance was close to none. Zishan Academy recruited two geniuses from the same city in the same batch of students. This was something that only happened once in ten years.
Therefore, to enter the genius class, winning first place in the recruitment competition was the prerequisite.
Because of this, Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan both wanted to win first place.
Especially Ye Xing. He was only a two-star Heaven's Mandate. It was impossible for him to enter the genius class based on his aptitude, so he could only rely on his strength.
The entire square was silent.
All the martial artists' gazes fell on Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan on the stage.
Before the recruitment competition started, Xiong Qifeng and Gu Yijian were the two most popular candidates for first place.
Who would have thought that Xiong Qifeng and Gu Yijian would be defeated by these two rising stars, and in the end, it was Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan who would fight for first place?
It was precisely because no one had expected this outcome that it attracted everyone's interest.
No one could guess who would obtain first place in the end!
In the arena, Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan looked at each other.
Wei Qingxuan said, "Thank you for your help in the Emerald Cloud Mountain Range. However, I won't let you win in the recruitment competition."
Ye Xing smiled and said, "Junior of the Celestial Firmament City, my only true opponent is you. If I were to give way, the battle would be too boring!"
Wei Qingxuan also smiled, and said, "That's right, I also only see you as a true opponent. I hope you will also do your best, and we will have a good fight."
When the cultivators heard the conversation between the two of them, they were secretly shocked. It turned out that Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan had long known of each other's strength and only regarded each other as opponents. As for the other cultivators, no one had realized how strong the two of them were before.
Gu Yijian's face also heated up when he heard this, thinking of how arrogant he was when he fought Wei Qingxuan, but the other party did not see him as an opponent at all. He could not help but sigh and reflect on himself.
As for Xiong Qifeng, he was already a cripple. His heart had completely collapsed, and his eyes were filled with despair. He was already immune to these words of shock, and was even drunk in despair. He did not hear what Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan said at all.
Ye Xing did not care about the other cultivators' sighs, and said, "If I go all out, my strength will be very terrifying. You have to be careful!"
Wei Qingxuan blinked, and said, "How terrifying will it be? My middle grade body refining cultivation method, martial skills, and movement technique have reached perfection. I have also grasped a high grade martial skill, and I have also comprehended a trace of wind force. Will a peak fifth level cultivation be enough to contend against you? "
Ye Xing was slightly moved. He was able to learn a high grade martial skill because of the super brain, but Wei Qingxuan was truly talented in martial arts.
The Wei family's high grade martial skill was also incomplete. Wei Qingxuan was actually able to learn it with a cultivation of the fifth level of the martial path. It could be seen that she was indeed a top martial arts genius who could not be more monstrous.
Ye Xing said, "My martial arts attainments are on par with yours, and my cultivation is at the late fifth level. It seems that my cultivation is a small level lower than yours, and I am slightly inferior. However, my strength has never been based on cultivation realm and martial arts attainments on the surface."
The outcome of a battle was not only based on the hard indicators of strength, but also a hidden factor — combat skills!
It wasn't unusual for a weak person to be able to defeat a strong person with powerful combat skills.
However, combat skills were a person's ability to react and judge. It was extremely mysterious and difficult to describe.
However, there was no doubt that Ye Xing had the super brain, and his combat skills were undoubtedly extremely high. The super brain's scanning allowed them to accurately know the opponent's attack trajectory, speed, and changes. It allowed him to almost have the ability to predict the opponent's movements. This was the key to him being able to defeat the strong as the weak.
The two of them did not say much and quickly began to fight.
Wei Qingxuan executed the Butterfly Dance Steps, and her entire body was like a dancing butterfly. It was extremely beautiful, and nothing more beautiful. However, her speed seemed slow, but in fact, it was extremely fast.
Ye Xing's Seven Star Steps was also at the Perfection Stage. Whether it was in terms of physique or footwork, Ye Xing was worlds apart from Wei Qingxuan.
However, in terms of speed, Ye Xing was not inferior at all.
In fact, Ye Xing's Seven Star Steps was even more unpredictable, appearing and disappearing unpredictably.
Bang, bang, bang, bang …
The two of them were extremely fast, and when they fought, they were as fast as lightning. Most of the martial artists did not see how the two of them attacked. They only knew that when the two of them met, there was a series of explosions, proving that the process of the fight was extremely intense.
Bronze Art, Perfection!
Mountain Art, Perfection!
Both of their body tempering techniques were at the Perfection Stage. The Bronze Art was strong in physical strength, while the Mountain Art was strong in aura suppression. When they fought, they were evenly matched.
The martial arts that the two of them used were also at the Perfection Stage, and their power was equally matched.
Ye Xing did not use the super brain to scan. In terms of combat awareness, Wei Qingxuan was about the same as him. It was difficult to tell who was better.
Furthermore, although Ye Xing's bones were complete, and he had the advantage in terms of physical collision, Wei Qingxuan's cultivation was higher than Ye Xing's by a small level. Her inner strength was slightly better, so they were still evenly matched.
The two of them fought very quickly. Not long after, they had already exchanged more than thirty moves. They had already used several middle-grade martial arts, but they were still evenly matched.
The audience in the square was dazzled by the two's battle, but most of the important figures in the pavilion could still see it clearly, and their eyes were filled with surprise.
Even the two Martial Dao masters, Mu Feng and Gu Cangnan, nodded their heads. Mu Feng's eyes were filled with satisfaction.
In terms of the use of middle-grade martial arts, the two of them had reached an extremely high level, almost touching the Perfection Stage. In terms of the use of movement techniques, they were truly at the Perfection Stage. Many of the older generation of sixth level martial artists could not be compared to the two of them even if they practiced martial arts for their entire lives.
As for movement techniques, not to mention sixth level martial artists, even Martial Dao masters who could cultivate a middle-grade movement technique to the Perfection Stage were extremely rare, as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan's eyes were shining brightly. The more they fought, the more excited they became, and the more they fought, the more carefree they felt.
In life, it was rare to find an opponent who was on par with them.
If the opponent was stronger than them, they would be suppressed everywhere. If the opponent was weaker than them, they would not be able to pose a threat.
Only when an opponent who was on par with them was a great threat to them, but would not suppress them, would they be able to continuously stimulate their potential in the process of a carefree battle.
Ye Xing was currently enjoying this carefree battle. He could feel that in the process of fighting with Wei Qingxuan, his attainments in martial arts had become more and more skilled. This was a feeling that he had never experienced when he was cultivating or fighting with an ordinary opponent.
Because of this, Ye Xing did not use the super brain's scanning function to break this state of balance. This was an excellent opportunity to hone his attainments in martial arts, and he could not miss it.
Wei Qingxuan was the same. Therefore, even though she did not have the upper hand, she did not use a high-grade martial arts technique in the thirty or so moves with Ye Xing.
The current state of balance was the most mysterious. It was extremely beneficial to both of their attainments in martial arts, and neither of them wanted to break it.
"Didn't the two of them say that they had learned high-grade martial arts techniques? Why haven't they used them after fighting for so long? "
"Yes, it's really strange. It seems that the two of them are very close in strength. If they use high-grade martial arts techniques, as long as their attainments in martial arts are higher, wouldn't they be able to determine the winner?"
"Could it be that they actually don't know high-grade martial arts techniques? Could it be that they were lying just now? Their purpose is to destroy each other's confidence …!"
…
Seeing that Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan had already exchanged thirty or forty moves and had yet to use high-grade martial arts techniques, many martial artists began to discuss.
Although they could not see clearly the battle between Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan, they could still see that the two of them were using middle-grade martial arts techniques. They could also see that the two of them were evenly matched, and neither of them had the upper hand.
Even some of the big shots in the pavilion had the same doubts.
Other than Mu Feng and Gu Cangnan, the two Martial Dao masters, and a few seventh-level Martial Dao masters, who could see that the two of them were honing their martial arts techniques, even the big shots at the peak of the sixth level could not see it.
Very quickly, Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan had exchanged fifty moves.
At this moment, Wei Qingxuan's martial arts technique changed from a middle-grade martial arts technique to an inferior-grade martial arts technique.
Inferior-Grade martial arts technique — Stone Splitting Palm!
Stone Splitting Palm was similar to Mountain Splitting Palm, but it was a grade lower. The profoundness and power of the moves were far inferior to Mountain Splitting Palm.
Seeing that Wei Qingxuan had suddenly used an inferior-grade martial arts technique, most of the martial artists were shocked.
Just now, Wei Qingxuan had used a middle-grade martial arts technique at the Perfection Stage and was only evenly matched with Ye Xing. Now that he had switched to an inferior-grade martial arts technique, how could he block it? Wasn't that just courting defeat?
However, the result was out of many martial artists' expectations.
Bang bang bang bang …
After a series of explosions, Wei Qingxuan used the Stone Splitting Palm and engaged in an intense collision with Ye Xing. He was not at a disadvantage at all.
In fact, after exchanging a few moves, Ye Xing was even forced to take a step back and faintly showed signs of being at a disadvantage.
Hiss — —
Many martial artists sucked in a breath of cold air. At this moment, they finally understood.
"Transformative Stage! Oh my god, Wei Qingxuan has mastered an inferior-grade martial arts technique to the Transformative Stage! "Someone exclaimed in shock.
It was extremely difficult to master a martial arts technique to the Perfection Stage, not to mention the Transformative Stage. Even if it was an inferior-grade martial arts technique, other than Martial Dao Masters of the Seventh Level and above, no martial artists below the Seventh Level were able to master an inferior-grade martial arts technique to the Transformative Stage.
However, what shocked the martial artists even more was that Wei Qingxuan had switched to an inferior-grade martial arts technique at the Transformative Stage. After exchanging ten moves with Ye Xing, Ye Xing suddenly switched to an inferior-grade martial arts technique as well.
Transformative Stage again!
