This is too hilarious!

42. An absurd martial arts competition among senior students

"A challenge for you?"

Sun Shuo laughed and said, "I do have that idea, but we'll have to wait until you can handle it before we talk about it."

You should be able to get into the top three in your class, but... I heard there's a girl in your class named Yu Lian, right?

"There is indeed such a person."

Bai Hui nodded calmly.

"That's right," Sun Shuo said. "She has an older brother named Yu Zong, do you know him?"

"Never heard of it."

"No way? Yu Zong is the second person in our class to condense the Heart Demon! You haven't heard of that?" Sun Shuo's eyes widened in surprise.

Comparing yourself to your peers is one of the main ways to grow in martial arts training during high school!

Bai Hui is only in the top ten, does he think he doesn't need to be followed?!

"The second one? That's impressive."

Bai Hui remained calm, his tone completely flat, which sounded more like sarcasm.

Sun Shuo: "..."

He paused, then gave Bai Hui a thumbs up and said, "You're amazing... Anyway, Yu Zong heard from somewhere that you bullied his sister in class, and he's already said he'll teach you a lesson on this martial arts arena."

In addition, there's Tian Qiyuan. His mastery of the Azure Sky Force has also improved. I heard he can already unleash three strikes, which is definitely enough for actual combat... After all, he's had plenty of private tutors, so his practical combat experience is quite strong..."

As he spoke, Sun Shuo looked at Bai Hui with some pity, and continued, "I heard that your family is not well-off."

Even if your mental strength improves rapidly, if your daily nutritional intake is insufficient, your physical fitness probably won't keep up, right?

No matter how good you are at fighting, you can only play one game at most. After that, your physical condition will drag down your performance, and excessive mental exertion will put even more strain on your body…”

Bai Hui casually remarked, "You know so much."

Unfortunately, in his "simple lines" state, it's difficult for him to show any emotional fluctuations.

Moreover, he was observing the competition among the senior students as much as possible, and hardly ever looked at Sun Shuo.

"You son of a bitch!"

Sun Shuo was furious and could no longer pretend. He snorted coldly, clenched his fists, and was about to turn and leave.

"I'm trying to talk to you nicely, but you won't listen. I hope you can keep it up until you're facing me! Humph!"

His clenched fist had faint black and red veins swirling at his knuckles, clearly indicating he was genuinely angry...

"Don't be angry," Bai Hui said leisurely. "By the way, do you want a spot for private martial arts sales?"

"Nonsense! Who wouldn't want such a great opportunity?"

"How much money can you offer?"

"???"

Sun Shuo was a little confused: "What do you mean?"

……

While Bai Hui was chatting with Sun Shuo, more and more first-year high school students handed in their papers early and came to the underground arena.

After all, it's a great opportunity to watch the upperclassmen fight.

Moreover, the gathering of so many martial artists at the Sha Body Realm, with their Sha Body Realm members intertwined and clashing with each other, can create significant psychological pressure on the first-year high school students.

This is also very beneficial to their current martial arts training.

The first-year high school students at the Sha Body Realm will be divided into different levels based on their individual endurance after entering the arena.

The stands surrounding the arena spread out in a ring, gradually rising in tiers. The higher the tier, the less affected the area becomes by the Heart-Soul Field.

Bai Hui himself was at the highest point—mainly because of the wide view from there, where he could clearly see the battles in all ten areas of the arena.

His total mental energy value has reached '2.5'. At the high school level, even the area with the highest pressure below can have a very limited impact on him.

After all, these stands were originally intended for lower-grade students to watch upper-grade students fight.

Furthermore, if the speed at which the Heart-Slaying Aura increases is even faster, the food expenses for the cook will have to go up again...

Therefore, the highest point in the stands is Bai Hui's best option at present.

The "Wu Peng Flash Selection" has now ended, and the competition for the top three students from each of the second-year high school classes is underway.

The barriers that the faculty and staff painstakingly created even have functions such as zooming, freezing, and dragging a progress bar!

According to Bai Hui, this is actually the effect of a certain martial arts technique, which has an extremely strong hallucinogenic effect, and the effects can be linked together...

After being integrated with "Wu Peng", it possesses even stronger protective capabilities. While controlling the damage within a fixed range, it can also demonstrate to the students watching the battle the level they can reach in the future, instilling aspirations and longings, and creating a sense of anticipation.

As for the private duels taking place in the 'rooms' on the sidelines... because the 'rooms' are magical artifacts, they inherently possess considerable privacy, so even Bai Hui cannot see what is happening inside.

The specific rankings are in the hands of each class's homeroom teacher.

But I've heard that after the midterm exams are completely over, the school will select the best fights currently taking place in the various "rooms" and edit them together, either for use in physical education classes or for teaching reviews in each class...

After looking around, Bai Hui discovered that even the top three students in their class, especially those in their second and third years of high school, mostly used the martial arts taught at school during fights, such as Xingyi Quan, Tai Chi Quan, Bajiquan, and so on.

Although many Bai Hui haven't officially started learning yet, they've already heard about it.

Aside from the fact that the "Heartbeat Form Technique" requires a certain level of skill, the martial arts used in combat are not difficult to learn.

Bai Hui considered it a way to familiarize himself with the place beforehand.

Besides these, there seemed to be some special mental techniques at work, but Bai Hui lacked the relevant knowledge and couldn't quite understand them.

Of course, it's not that no one uses martial arts techniques outside the scope of school instruction.

Some senior students will unleash even greater strength when they are about to be defeated.

The martial arts moves even incorporate attributes such as fire, frost, and electricity, significantly enhancing both the visual appeal and the combat effects!

Once they unleash these martial arts techniques that are "outside the scope of public education and teaching," they have a very high probability of winning the competition.

But then he will be defeated by his opponent in the next match...

Upon seeing this, Bai Hui suddenly realized that these senior students were probably hiding their true abilities!

As for why...

Bai Hui suspected it was related to the "Yuncheng High School League" that He Qing had mentioned before.

Besides these, there was also a small group of senior students who fought using "school martial arts" while their bodies emitted continuous explosions.

These explosive sounds were the result of coordinated movements of muscles and bones; while they appeared somewhat stiff, they still possessed a clear regularity!

"Treat hemorrhoids! Use Ma Yinglong!"

Heinz Tomato Ketchup! Rich, creamy tomato flavor! Simple, zero additives!

"Beside the meteorite! A coffee candy being chewed!"

We buy old cell phones! Scrapped cell phones! Exchange cell phones for basins! Exchange them for scissors! Exchange them for kitchen knives!

……

Yes, while they were fighting, they were also practicing memorizing GG words using the "muscle and bone resonance" technique...

This approach will undoubtedly distract them, essentially giving them a free hand to fight their opponent!

Even so, these senior students who could fight while memorizing GG vocabulary still made it to the end and were basically the best in their grade!

These people don't respect their opponents at all!

Bai Hui even discovered a pattern: the more fluent, clear, loud, and standard the words that these guys recited while fighting, the stronger they were!

The one who is best at memorizing GG words is undoubtedly the number one in their grade!

This often means that the stronger one's self-control, the better their physical fitness and mental strength are in sync...

Bai Hui found it all abstract, and as he looked at it, his sanity level began to decline...

Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

Once all the academic exams for the first-year high school students are over, the martial arts competitions for the second and third-year students will also come to an end.

Therefore, even though martial arts tournaments for older students can help younger students improve their mental fortitude, one must have the ability to "submit their work early" to enjoy it.

Submitting a blank paper is definitely not acceptable, nor is handing in a hasty, scribbled mess. After all, if your grades drop significantly, you'll face criticism or even humiliation from the teacher during the rest of the class.

In severe cases, it can even lead to expulsion from school!

This is yet another layer of oppression...

By the time Bai Hui realized this, the martial arts tournament for the first-year high school students had finally begun.
