Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Leaders of Each City

The person who came with a cane was naturally Qin Shou.

Last time Baiyu went to the steamship, he visited him at the hospital. Knowing that Qin Shou was fine, Baiyu went to take part in a competition.

"Brother Yu, today in the hospital I heard you were going to fight the champion from Hoka City, so I rushed here on my cane. This was the guy who beat me. His defense is incredibly strong, specializing in direct physical training. His muscles are almost as tough as the defense offered by Mechanical Armament."

Qin Shou’s voice was very low.

Baiyu glanced at his cane, "Physical training, huh? Aren’t you training muscles as well?"

"I don’t have as many muscles as he does... That bastard, did you see his head? If he keeps training, he might even develop a protective layer."

Qin Shou was quite frustrated.

Baiyu chuckled, "Did you fight him here?"

"Yes, at the time we fought three hundred rounds, and in the end, I couldn’t match his final move. It was a regretful defeat..." Qin Shou sighed.

"You can save that bragging for when we drink. What I want to know is, can we use weapons on the stage? If so, what kinds can be used?"

Baiyu asked his burning question.

Recently, he had made some gains in learning, and his overall strength had increased significantly. But he needed specific weapons to unleash it fully.

Given the opponent’s strength, he mustn’t underestimate him.

Facing the opponent with full power and then making him fall spectacularly is true respect for the opponent.

"Weapons will be provided by Erza, who provides various types. The Ship Spirit will provide weapons according to your level and study focus."

Qin Shou explained, "But don’t expect anything beyond the limits. The weapons we can request are D Level alloys, which can’t break through his muscle defense. And for fairness, whatever weapon you request, your opponent can request the same."

"I see now."

Baiyu nodded and looked towards the martial arts stage, where the muscular opponent sat, eyes closed in focus, exuding a long-lasting aura, his chest rising and falling rhythmically with each breath, sounding like the echoing call of a giant whale.

He truly is a pure physical training martial artist.

That bastard, maybe he has a skill point panel?

Baiyu had this thought flash through his mind but shook his head self-mockingly. If he truly had a skill point panel, he would have become an oversized muscle king, and how could he still maintain a human form?

Discarding stray thoughts, Baiyu walked towards the stage.

The fight was inevitable, as the conflict between Hoka City and Linjiang City had already been formed. With the 200 study credits Baiyu had, the opponent couldn’t just shrink and become a turtle.

Baiyu needed this fight for some peace.

Otherwise, every random person would come for his 200 study credits; it would be utterly annoying.

"If you lose, I’ll step in for you."

Jiang Xi said from the side.

Almost all the students from Linjiang City aboard the steamships had gathered.

Lan Ziyue and others were looking quite solemn.

A few days ago, they witnessed the muscular opponent’s strength, which was absolutely top-tier among students, and they couldn’t last a few rounds against him.

Though Baiyu’s academic performance was unparalleled,

nobody had seen him in a real battle. Blood Qi and martial strength are things that are honed over time.

Jiang Xi’s ease contrasted with the group’s tense atmosphere.

Only she noticed that Baiyu had blood Qi flowing through him, establishing the Five Meridians, reaching the apex of Quasi-Martial Artist blood Qi.

And there was an unusual power within him.

Jiang Xi knew this power well, the Extraordinary Power. Meaning Baiyu was at least a Sequence Nine Extraordinary.

Even without using Extraordinary Abilities, the terrifying recovery power from the Extraordinary Power was enough to give many a tough time.

No clue how Linjiang First Middle School managed to cultivate such a monster; probably she wouldn’t gain any advantage against him herself.

Wondering if he practiced the Core Technique.

If he did, Baiyu’s strength would be one level higher.

Before long.

Under everyone’s gaze, Baiyu walked onto the stage.

Students from other cities around were watching intently, as this was a battle to test strengths. Yesterday it ended too quickly, and the opponent wasn’t among the very best, making it hard to gauge Baiyu’s true capabilities.

But today.

The muscular opponent’s strength was definitely at its peak.

"Profound Celestial Pivot, who do you think will win this match?"

A young man with flowing green hair from Beishi City, Song Xu, asked the stern man next to him with a smile.

This green-haired young man was the leader of Beishi City this term.

After Beishi City had a prominent Sub-human emerge, its residents started dressing quite distinctively, becoming somewhat of the pioneers of flamboyant styles.

This fashion trend spread across Beishi City.

They believed the stranger the dress, the more they showcased their uniqueness from ordinary people.

This flowing green hair was proof of it.

"Probably the muscular opponent. I just gathered information on Baiyu yesterday; he seems to be a student focusing mainly on academics and likely aiming for a research career. He might have some latent strength, but definitely not a match for the muscular opponent, who mainly trains in martial arts."

Profound Celestial Pivot from Xuanji City said coldly.

Xuanji City was a family city, where the Xuan Family was also Imperial nobles, but their strength was far below the Qiong Family.

Profound Celestial Pivot was the one the Xuan Family had put all effort into training this term.

With him.

Xuanji City undoubtedly became the first among the six cities.

However.

Despite his strength, he had a flaw.

His judgment of people was always terribly inaccurate.

He’s the type in werewolf games who always sides with the wolf team against good people, pushing mobs and fiercely attacking Prophets.

For sure.

His track record of poor judgment was indescribable.

Upon hearing him say the muscular opponent would win, the people from Hoka City had grim expressions.

Others from different city leaders wore stifled looks of amusement.

"Disbelieve if you must, when have I missed a judgment?" Profound Celestial Pivot coldly flicked his sleeves, being the only one wearing long robes in the martial arts hall, emanating an aloof Ancient Martial Artist aura.

"Profound Celestial Pivot, if I may, didn’t you protect your servant who turned out to be a spy during Xuanji City’s espionage case? If your father weren’t the City Lord, you’d have been taken by the Anomaly Bureau to grind rice long ago."

The lewd leader from Ghost Fire City said sinisterly, smiling.

"Nonsense, how can you tarnish my name without basis!" Profound Celestial Pivot’s face turned red, glaring coolly at the side, murmuring about being a pillar of the Human Race, misled by a spy, leaving listeners bewildered.

But mocking Profound Celestial Pivot’s poor judgment added a lively atmosphere to the martial arts hall.

Ordinary students dared not to speak out; they could only bow their heads, suppressing laughter.

However, leaders like those from Beishi City and Ghost Fire City, with similar prestige to Profound Celestial Pivot, frequently made derisive remarks.

"Stop bickering; they’re onstage."

Gan Yuhan, with a thick bandage wrapped around her arm and chest, reminded them aloud.

Profound Celestial Pivot, Song Xu, and several others heard and turned toward the stage, where protective devices had already been activated.

The two on stage were ready to go.
