Ma Mingyao's opponent was a kid whose size was not much different from his, named Temusheng. That kid was also a desperate guy in training, so the two of them had been fighting for a long time and still couldn't decide the winner.
It's just that in this kind of selection mode of the arena competition, to directly challenge Ma Mingyao, who is obviously the strongest, he can only say that he has confidence in himself, or that he doesn't care at all whether he can play tomorrow.
Because everyone has only learned basic boxing and kicking skills, other physical training and internal strength training are not much different. Therefore, their competition was a real physical fight. If Ma Mingyao hits the opponent with a punch, he will definitely be hit by Temusheng. Although they had the internal energy to strengthen their bodies, their muscles were trembling all over at this moment, and they were sweating profusely from the pain.
Seeing that no one came to challenge him, Yiran was happy and relaxed. He sat cross-legged and watched the other people in the ring competing.
Ma Mingyao and Temusheng fought very hard and fiercely, and neither of them hit the vital points. But when Ma Mingyao hit Temusheng in the chest, he was bound to be hit in the chest as well. Even without learning complicated moves, they can raise their hands to block, or slightly dodge the opponent's punches and kicks. In this kind of battle, sometimes the competition is about who is more ruthless, or who can take one more punch than the opponent.
Ma Mingyao and Temusheng had hit each other with dozens of punches, and both sides were gritting their teeth to keep from falling. In Huang Zhan's opinion, these two are excellent seedlings, and they will definitely join the army to guard the frontier in the future. If the strength can be improved a little higher, it will not be a dream to even become a prince and a general. Being able to see the future at the age of eight is not just talk.
In the end, the two of them fought until their steps staggered, their chests couldn't stand up, and they walked toward each other with their heads down.
Huang Zhan saw this and promptly announced the end, a draw! It's just that it didn't say how to choose after that.
The two of them both stepped off the stage. This first stage was without the champion, but Mentor Huang Zhan also asked people to continue on stage. So at least one of Ma Mingyao can be selected into the ranks of the five. In fact, after looking at Yiran's performance, there is no suspense in the civilian group competition with Yiran alone.
But the fight still has to go on.
The remaining three arenas are also not over yet, but their side is indeed a little more relaxed, more like a fight between children. Although they have become stronger and have learned some moves, they have almost never been in actual combat, and their use of moves is also limited. Just stop at a few punches and kicks.
Therefore, when seeing the opponent's attack, the first reaction is not to fight back but to dodge. Therefore, most of their moves were missed, not because the opponent was too powerful to hit, but because the opponent didn't even think about catching the move. It was like when something was flying towards them, their first reaction was to dodge, or even Not saying catch it.
Therefore, compared with several other arenas, this competition lasted longer but did not cause any substantial damage to the opponent. Huang Zhan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Because when facing monsters on the battlefield, they will also support the soldiers to avoid the attacks of monsters. Therefore, they forget to tell the children that martial arts competition is not a life and death duel. They must find a way to defeat the opponent with every move, instead of running and hiding when they see the attack. !
After Huang Zhan explained it again, the on-site martial arts competition became normal. However, with Yiran, Ma Mingyao, and Temusheng in front, these battles were not very interesting.
In the end, the other two people selected were Zhou Ming. Although they were not as outstanding as Ma Mingyao and the others, they were able to use their fists, moves and kicks in an orderly manner, which was pretty good. The other one is a girl named Zhu Xueer. This girl is slender and light-footed. She constantly looks for loopholes to fight back while advancing and retreating. She also defeated the original champion and repelled the challenger.
In this way, the contestants for this competition are decided.
The family group includes Li Yiyi, Jin Chen, Zhou Huiyang, Li Feng, and Song Yuxi.
The group of civilian children, Yiran, Ma Mingyao, Temusheng, Zhou Ming, Zhu Xueer.
"Also, I would like to remind everyone that this Xiaohuiwu is just an activity organized by us on our own initiative, but the big exam at the end of the year is about your survival. At that time, no matter your origin, it will only depend on your strength at that time!"
"All first-year students in Huiwu College will participate in that competition, and the one who ranks last will be expelled directly."
This statement shocked the entire audience. Yiran once heard Huang Zhan say that very few other civilians knew about it. Originally, this matter would not be announced until the last two months, but instructor Huang Zhan took the opportunity to speak out at this moment.
Many civilians looked at each other in shock. They had no goals or dreams, and they didn't practice hard when they came to the martial arts academy, but that didn't mean they were willing to accept the fate of being eliminated. Once you are eliminated, you will almost never have the chance to enter the warrior realm in this life!
The next day, the new students in the whole school officially started to join the martial arts competition. There was no excitement of the talent test, no chill of the end-of-year test, and no glory on the battlefield.
This competition is conducted on a group stage based on schools, and there is no need to rank individuals. As long as the ranking of School No. 8 can surpass those two tutors, they will apologize and admit that they did not teach well, and Huang Zhan will also admit that there are problems with his teaching.
The rules of this game are that one person defends and the opponent attacks. The winner becomes the challenger, and the opponent continues to challenge until there is no one left to challenge, and it must end, and the challenger wins. There are a total of twelve schools. In the first round, they are divided into six groups. Six of the twelve teams advance, and then three of the six teams advance. When there are three final teams, one team will get a bye in the first match, the two teams will compete, and the loser will compete with the third team. If the third team loses to the loser, the competition ends. If it wins, it continues to compete with the winner for first place. Therefore, it takes at least three rounds to win the championship.
"The drawing of lots for the first round of competition begins." As the older mentor spoke, the competition entered the first stage.
In this competition, the actual combat instructors from the twelve schools jointly serve as referees, judging all competitions and maintaining on-site safety.
Ma Mingyao and Li Yiyi drew lots on behalf of two groups respectively. The results of the draw were School No. 1 vs. No. 8, School No. 2 vs. No. 6, School No. 3 vs. No. 12, School No. 4 vs. No. 10, and School No. 5 vs. No. 10. No. 1, No. 7 School vs. No. 9.
After the grouping was completed, six small martial arts performance stages were selected nearby. The school with the smaller number took the lead in becoming the champion, and the martial arts competition began.
Yiran and the others were fighting against the No. 1 martial arts hall. The No. 1 martial arts hall was relatively outstanding among all the martial arts halls. There are four children from the family who have stepped into the realm of warriors. Although I don’t know what level the civilian children have reached now, they are expected to be good because their mentor Song Yan was also a frontier soldier and came to the academy after he was older. He has been teaching high school for more than ten years. He did not comment on Huang Zhan's teaching, which was his own experience, but he was very optimistic about Huang Zhan.
As for a thirty-year-old martial artist, this kind of talent is comparable to that of the ten masters. After more than ten years of accumulation, he will definitely become a great martial artist. If he stays at the border, he will definitely be able to become a general on that day. You must know that Huang Zhan is the only martial artist among his mentors!
But in the ring, he would not give way to Huang Zhan.
"In the first game, Chen You, go ahead and explore your opponent's background. If the opponent is strong, try to use up his physical strength. If the opponent is average, defeat them directly. Entering the ring is fighting, and fighting can only be achieved by unreserved performance. It’s the greatest respect for your opponent!”
Chen You took the lead on the stage and looked in the direction of School No. 8, without a hint of cowardice or arrogance in his heart. He is still ranked second among his classmates in terms of strength. His father is also a retired veteran from the frontier. Although he cannot provide him with many resources, he has been trained by his father since he was a child. He doesn't have the mental skills to practice, but in terms of physical body and moves, he believes that he won't lose to anyone.
Although his father is also in the frontier army, he is the most ordinary member. He has never practiced martial arts. In the beast tide, he basically faced only injured and weak beasts, but he has seen the beasts that cover the sky and the sun. Huge monster. The feeling of powerlessness at that time made him determined that his children must practice and become great monks in the future. Even if they could not kill all the monsters, they would still work hard for this dream.
During a field inspection, I accidentally discovered a strange beast attacking a caravan. Although the team finally killed the alien beast in that battle, not a single soldier in Chen You's father's team died, and those who survived were seriously injured and retired. Chen You's father gave the alien beast the final blow and inserted the spear into the alien beast's eye socket, but the alien beast's counterattack bit off his right arm.
After retiring, his father lived a normal life and received subsidies from the principality. He married his mother and gave birth to him. My father has always regretted that he is not a monk and has no ability to guard the border.
I wish I could cultivate to an unparalleled level and slay monsters, I wish I could die to repay the country and spread blood on the frontier!
Therefore, I must be brave enough to continue my father's dream. And he must become a monk or even a great monk, so that he can kill all the monsters in sight! Your dreams will become a reality from this moment on.
Chen You's opponent in the first match was Ma Mingyao, who was also the leader of School No. 8. Because it was Ma Mingyao who drew the lottery on behalf of School No. 8, many people from other schools remembered him.
The two sides clasped their fists in greeting, then opened their fists. Chen You's inner strength is looming, his eyes are focused on Ma Mingyao, his short hair stands like steel needles, and his big eyes and sharp eyebrows make people feel his seriousness and belief in victory.
Ma Mingyao's eyes also flashed with panic, but they were extremely solemn. The moment Chen You started his fist fight, he knew that his opponent was not simple. Even if his opponent was born as a commoner and had not cultivated his inner strength in advance, the natural success of that move must have been polished and practiced for a long time. This is a stronger enemy than Temusheng, and he may even say that he may not be able to win!
Ma Mingyao's heart tightened and he rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Chen You and stabbed him in the chest with a fist.
Chen You took a step forward with his calf, his left hand slightly raised, and with one powerful slap, he knocked away Ma Mingyao's straight punch. At the same time, he reached forward with his right palm and slapped Ma Mingyao's chest hard. Ma Mingyao sprinted forward with all his strength, but his retreating speed was no slower than his sprinting speed. Fortunately, the martial arts stage was big enough and he was not pushed out directly.
Ma Mingyao rubbed his chest gently, stood up slowly, spit on his hands and rubbed them clean, and continued to look at Chen You. Compared to him, Chen You was a master. In terms of moves, he was no match for him. After thinking for a moment, Ma Mingyao knew that only physical strength might give him a chance to compete. He stood firm and walked towards Chen You step by step.
This made the instructor who was paying attention to the martial arts stage show a smile of approval. When he discovered his weakness, he immediately adjusted his method. It was a good idea to face the difficulties even though he knew he couldn't beat them. But for the time being, Chen You is still better.
Looking at Ma Mingyao walking towards him, Chen You also had a solemn look on his face.
The opponent immediately changes his tactics after discovering that his basic moves don't work. This is because he is preparing to fight him hand-to-hand! Even if he wins, it will be a miserable victory.
Sure enough, as Chen You expected, every blow he struck hit Ma Mingyao. Ma Mingyao resisted with his body and fought back at all costs.
Every time Chen You hits Ma Mingyao, he will also be hit by Ma Mingyao. Even though Chen You has learned many moves, they have no effect at this moment. This is the most barbaric way of fighting, making all skills difficult to use. Now they cannot use their internal energy to attack, so this situation cannot be changed at all.
Ma Mingyao was beaten to the point of coma yesterday. Although he recovered very quickly from his injuries after practicing, the bruises on his body could not be recovered. Today, he was even beaten all over.
A moment later, the contest came to an end in an extremely brutal manner, with both sides bruised and swollen. However, Chen You was still standing, while Ma Mingyao was lying on the ground.
Ma Mingyao, one of the strongest duo in School No. 8, lost to his opponent Chen You after a hard fight!
After Ma Mingyao was carried off the martial arts stage, the atmosphere in School No. 8 was extremely solemn. Even if Temusheng can defeat Chen You, what about the one who is stronger than Chen You? Everyone couldn't help but look at Yiran. Although they couldn't tell Yiran's strength, he defeated four classmates yesterday, so he should still have a chance.
The second competition started directly without any rest between Zhou Ming and Chen You. Zhou Ming's performance in the competition between his classmates was remarkable. Although he was not as strong as Ma Mingyao, he was better because of his coordinated and orderly advance and retreat of his body.
But when facing Chen You's combat experience, this advantage cannot have a big effect.
In the end, the battle also turned into a hand-to-hand fight. Chen You was seriously injured in the first fight. After the two fought for a while, both of them fell to the ground.
In the first match, Chen You beat him one to two, and the pressure on School No. 8 became extremely high. If he couldn't pass the first round of the match, there would be no need to talk about who would win the bet.
All the students in School No. 8 were under great pressure, except for the presence of their mentor Huang Zhan.
In the third arena competition, School No. 1 sent a girl. She was petite and agile, and even though she looked pretty, she was very attractive. Seeing this, Zhu Xueer was also sent to the martial arts stage.
"Zhu Xue'er."
"Tian Wan."
Both sides clasped fists in greeting.
The competition between the two girls made many people in School No. 8 forget about the pressure of being beaten twice, and they clapped their hands with excitement.
The competition between the two girls completely lacked the roughness of the two physical fights just now. Even if Zhu Qing'er only uses straight punches and jabs, basic boxing skills become different amidst the screams.
The teaching Tian Wan received at No. 1 Academy was also based on theory plus basics, rather than completely following the teachings of boxing manuals.
The two of them were fighting each other, their clothes were fluttering, and many boys in the audience almost felt an inexplicable emotion. Even in the eyes of Yi Ran, who lived for more than 20 years in his previous life, the competition between the two little girls was very eye-catching.
In the end, Zhu Xueer was slightly better, and when she brought Tian Wan to the edge of the martial arts stage, she suddenly exerted force, and her speed suddenly increased by 10%, knocking Tian Wan off the stage.
What little internal energy he had originally was completely exhausted.
School No. 8 evened the battle, but it was almost difficult for Zhu Xueer to win another game.
Zhu Xueer became the champion, and School No. 1 sent the third child.
"Girl, I'm rude. I'll be late."
"Zhu Xue'er asks for advice!"
Both sides clasped fists in greeting, and the fight was about to break out.
It's just that Zhu Xueer's internal energy has been exhausted and she can only fight with her pure body, while Xun Yin is now in full condition.
Zhu Xueer, who had always won with her agility, could no longer keep up with Xun Yin at this moment. After barely parrying a few moves, she was hit in the back by one, and she was hit with skillful force until she was off the martial arts stage.
"Win without force, Miss Zhu Xue'er, I'm sorry." Although Xun Yin behaved politely and definitely not arrogant at all, the audience was booed.
The boos did not affect the progress of the competition, and the fifth battle started immediately.
"Xunyin, please enlighten me."
"Temusheng, please!"
The two sides clasped their fists in greeting, and Temusheng immediately rushed towards Xun Yin, hoping to defeat skill with force. In the face of absolute power, the effect of skill would be infinitely suppressed. No matter how dexterous you are, one strike will seriously injure you.
The reality was as expected. Xun Yin's body skills dexterously avoided more than 80% of Temusheng's attacks. He was unable to withstand just one punch on his body. However, when his fist landed on Temusheng, he seemed to be hurt. He tickles. Even though he knew that his fist was not light, Temusheng didn't even blink. In Xun Yin's opinion, this kind of physical ability to withstand beatings was probably on par with the team leader Ma Mingyao.
Although Xunyin's body movement avoided many attacks, it also consumed more internal energy faster. After struggling to persevere, he was punched in the stomach, and his body instantly turned into a cooked shrimp. He lay on the ground and found it difficult to get up.
In the sixth game, Temusheng relied on his strong body and perseverance to knock down his opponent. Moreover, Temusheng's internal strength was exhausted earlier. His victory relied on his fierce strength and a bit of luck.
He had tried his best to level the situation, and being able to fight fairly with the strongest person in School No. 1 in the final competition was his greatest ability.
But he also knew about Yiran's battle yesterday. In a matter of seconds, he defeated his opponent in just a few moves, four times in a row! With that kind of strength, even if he is said to be a member of the family who has been cultivating for a long time, people will probably believe it.
No one expected that this competition would turn out like this, and the two mentors couldn't help but look at each other.
