Chapter 149 I Heard You’re Very Strong?Chapter 149 I Heard You’re Very Strong?
When he left the small hall, Chu Nan still could not hide the surprise in his mind. Even his footsteps became much lighter.
He never expected that the person Old Master Xio spoke of was really Marshal Chemekov!
What he did not expect even more was that Old Master Xio was actually a comrade of Marshal Chemekov!
According to Old Master Xio, he and Marshal Chemekov had joined the Federation Army in the same year and were assigned to the same company.
In the beginning, Marshal Chemekov was not very eye-catching. At that time, his strength was only at the fourth-stage Overlord Body Realm. No one thought that he would become such a powerful Star-Grade Martial Artist in the future.
However, in the few years of the battle between the Earth Federation and the Kingdom of Kexley, Xio had personally seen Marshal Chemekov’s strength continuously advance. In just two years, he had broken through from the fourth-stage Overlord Body Realm to the fifth-stage Internal Breath Realm.
After that, he had even broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in one go, and then his strength had soared all the way again. Up until now, not only had he become a top-notch Star-Grade Martial Artist, but he had even ascended to the top of the Federation Army and become the only Federal Marshal.
“If Mu Yutong and those two fellows from Norman think that you haven’t accumulated enough, so it’s almost impossible for you to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate, then Chemekov’s situation should be similar to yours. If he can break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate, you definitely have hope. I’m not skilled in martial techniques, but I can recommend you to meet him. Perhaps you can obtain some guidance from him.”
When he heard Old Master Xio’s words, Chu Nan was so happy that he nearly jumped.
Previously, he had heard from Dunleavy about Marshal Chemekoy and knew that he might not have been able to become an Internal Breath Martial Artist when he was an adult. In the end, he had broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate and even became a Star-Grade Martial Artist
However, Dunleavy was not certain of this, and he was only guessing based on some rumors.
Now, Old Master Xio had personally confirmed this guess with the identity of his comrade-in-arms!
This was really news that excited Chu Nan.
Before this, the judgment of the two Star-Grade Martial Artists had given him an extremely great pressure.
The judgment of the two Star-Grade Martial Artists carried an unquestionable authority. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to admit that breaking through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate was definitely an extremely difficult and even impossible matter.
However, after confirming that someone else had broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate under the same circumstances as him, Chu Nan immediately felt extremely encouraged.
Even if this person was one of the top martial artists of the Earth Federation and was a Star-Grade Martial Artist, Marshal Chemekov, who stood at the top of all martial artists, and was far from what ordinary martial artists could compare to, Chu Nan was confident.
Since others could do it, why not him?!
What made him even happier was that Old Master Xio had expressed that he and Marshal Chemekov had been comrades for many years and their relationship was extraordinary. If he introduced them, he should not refuse to see Chu Nan and give him some guidance.
Previously, after Chu Nan heard the rumors about Marshal Chemekov from Dunleavy, he had thought of how to meet him and ask if these rumors were true. He did not expect that he would so easily resolve this problem.
Compared to rewards like money and martial techniques, this reward was what Chu Nan valued the most.
Therefore, he sincerely thanked Xio before bidding farewell.
Looking down at the personal terminal on his wrist, Chu Nan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
It was only natural that Old Master Xio did not directly give him the contact number of Marshal Chemekov. After all, he was the Federation’s Marshal, an important figure at the top of the federation. He was not someone that a small figure like Chu Nan could see easily.
However, Old Master Xio gave his own contact number to Chu Nan and told him to wait. He would contact Marshal Chemekov and recommend him. He would inform Chu Nan after confirming the news.
Before this, Chu Nan could only wait patiently.
“In any case, I need time to cultivate as soon as possible, so it won’t affect me much.”
Chu Nan composed himself and temporarily put this matter aside. He raised his head and swept his gaze across the banquet hall. He discovered that Chu Xiaoxi was in another corner of the banquet hall in the distance, not far from the celebrities she had mentioned.
Looking at her careful appearance of wanting to approach but not daring to, Chu Nan could not help but laugh.
This girl was so excited just now that she seemed to want to rush over immediately. He did not expect that after talking to Old Master Xio for so long, she still only dared to watch from the side and did not really dare to move.
He tilted his head and saw that Mu Luo was following beside her. Chu Nan was relieved and did not disturb Chu Xiaoxi’s pursuit. He turned around and planned to find an inconspicuous corner to sit down.
Just as he turned around and took two steps, a figure suddenly stabbed from the side and stood in front of Chu Nan.
“You’re Chu Nan?”
Chu Nan sized up this guy who suddenly appeared in surprise. He looked to be less than 20 years old. He had a long body, a thin face, and a handsome appearance. Coupled with his exquisite workmanship and decent cut, it was obvious at a glance that he was wearing a pure white set made of high-grade materials. He looked like a rich second-generation heir.
“I’m Chu Nan. You are?”
“You don’t need to know my name.” The young man raised his head slightly with a condescending expression, “I heard that your performance in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition was not bad. You’ve even been evaluated by many as the strongest martial artist under the age of 20 in the federation?”
Chu Nan frowned slightly. He did not like the appearance of this guy, but he still shook his head and replied to his last sentence.
“No, I never thought so. Many of those truly powerful young martial artists in the federation did not participate in this competition. Of course, I’m not the strongest. Moreover, I didn’t win the championship.”
The young man was stunned as if he did not expect Chu Nan to admit it.
He paused for a moment before sneering, “Regardless of whether you think so or not, many people have said so.”
“So?” Chu Nan asked in confusion.
The young master stretched out a finger and pointed at Chu Nan before proudly saying, “That’s why I want to defeat you in public! Tell everyone that I’m much stronger than
you!”
“Is this cliché really happening?” Chu Nan sighed and rolled his eyes. He threw out the word “crazy” and turned around to leave.
“You want to escape?” A soft shout sounded from behind him, and then a palm slapped forward.
