On the screen, there was dead silence around the venue.
Everyone watched in a daze as the young martial artist who was crying out in pain while holding his lower body tightly curled up could not believe his eyes.
Yang Xirui was stunned for a few seconds before she was pulled back by her outstanding professionalism.
She swallowed her saliva with difficulty and turned to look at the camera with an abnormal expression.
“This is all for the report on the competition venue. Let’s return to the broadcast room.”
The scene switched back to the broadcast room of “Focus News”. The atmosphere was a little strange.
“Erm… Thank you for the exciting live report Yang Xirui brought us.” Although she had long seen countless strange things as the host of the “Focus News”, she still felt a little awkward when she said this at this moment, “What do the two guests think about the situation at the scene?”
“Despicable!” Tang Xiaoyou rebuked rudely, “That young martial artist who appeared on the screen just now is simply insulting the term ‘martial artist’! How can he… how can he attack such an important part of his opponent? This is simply… simply violating the basic morals of a martial artist!”
“What a joke!” Rengal immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, “How can there be any morals in a battle between martial artists? Could it be that in a life and death battle, you still have to be wary and not attack the other party’s vital points? This is simply nonsense!”
“But this is not a life and death battle. This is only an ordinary martial arts competition!” Tang Xiaoyou emphasized.
“So what? As a martial artist, what I pursue is to defeat the enemy in the simplest and most effective way. I admire that young martial artist very much because he used the most direct, most effective, and least stamina-consuming method to defeat his opponent.”
“Mr. Rengal, could it be that you would use the same move when facing an enemy?” Diana interrupted at the right time.
“If there’s a chance, why wouldn’t I?” Rengal sneered at the question, “Since even this Miss Tang Xiaoyou knows that it’s the enemy’s weakness, why don’t I target it?”
“Then what if the enemy is a female martial artist? Do you also plan to do this?” Tang Xiaoyou immediately asked.
“Female martial artists are also martial artists. Since you have become a martial artist, you must resolve yourself to fight.” Rengal rebuked with equal harshness.
“Impressive, Mr. Rengal. You can even be so vicious to women. Can I assume that Heaven Control Martial Artists like you…”
Seeing that the topic of the two guests had already deviated, Diana was not in a hurry to pull them back to the topic.
Using the conflict between the guests to attract attention and increase the ratings of this program was a common trick.
In any case, the initial procedures of the program had already been completed. Now that Rengal and Tang Xiaoyou were arguing, she was happy to see it.
…
Chu Nan did not expect that his casual kick would actually cause the two famous people of the federation who were hundreds of light-years away to argue in front of countless spectators.
From the first match onwards, he had already used this kick to finish his opponent three times in a row.
As Rengal had said, this was the most direct, effective, and least physically draining solution.
The opponents in these three consecutive rounds were only initial-stage Overlord Body or second-stage Overlord Body. Chu Nan could not even obtain the value to practice on them, so he was naturally unwilling to waste time on them. Therefore, he dealt with them as quickly as possible.
In any case, in order to ensure the safety of this martial arts competition, the West Cloud Planet’s government had equipped the most advanced and appropriate service facilities. Even if these opponents’ lower bodies were severely damaged, they would be immediately sent for treatment and would not cause any true damage.
The only thing to worry about was that he had used this method to end the battles in three consecutive rounds. He was afraid that his nickname of “Descendant Slayer” would be given just like that.
At the thought of this, Chu Nan hurriedly looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that there were no familiar faces around.
After all, it was only the initial stages of the competition for those under the age of 20. Because his standards were too low, he could not attract too many people to watch. Even the West Cloud Academy did not pay much attention to him, so his performance in these three competitions was not too far away.
Chu Nan opened his personal terminal and checked the real-time situation. He discovered that because he had won three consecutive rounds, he had already entered the fourth round of the group competition below the age of 20.
According to the final statistics, the total number of martial artists participating in the West Cloud Planet’s martial artist competition reached 37,081. Among them, the number of martial artists participating in the group competition below the age of 20 had reached 14,993.
Therefore, even though Chu Nan had already entered the fourth round, he was only one of the remaining 2,000 participants. He still had to pass a few more rounds before he could enter the final stage.
However, from the situation of the opponents he had encountered in the previous three rounds, although there were many martial artists participating in the competition below the age of 20, there were very few with high standards. Therefore, if nothing unexpected happened, it would not be a problem for Chu Nan to enter the final stage.
This actually disappointed him.
Although his first goal in participating in this Martial Artist Competition was to perform well in the finals and obtain the special recommendation that Mu Yutong had given him to enter Star Cloud Academy, and his second goal was to win those generous cash rewards, besides this, he also hoped that he could encounter a few powerful opponents in this competition and allow him to fight a few more times with sufficient weight to obtain more combat data and accumulate more combat experience.
However, because the opponents he faced were too weak, they were probably even inferior to him before he obtained the data ability. How could they give him enough combat experience?
“I might as well fight a few more rounds in Martial Soul…” Chu Nan could not help but sigh.
In the past few days, Chu Nan had spent almost all his free time in Martial Soul.
Through a large number of battles, he had already raised his points to level five and could start higher-level random battles.
In the recent few rounds, he could already match with third-stage Overlord Body Realm players.
Although such an opponent still could not satisfy him, it could already allow him to fight well and accumulate enough combat experience.
This was far from enough.
Although every battle could allow Chu Nan to gather a lot of detailed combat data and accumulate experience, he was still unable to summarize the pattern of the Hong Clan’s Long Fist to stimulate his Internal Breath, so he was still unable to mobilize his Internal Breath as he pleased in battle.
Chu Nan had also checked many information, but he had never seen any information related to the mobilization of Internal Breath by an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist in battle. Therefore, he knew very well that he could only rely on himself to slowly figure this out. There was no other way.
The key point was that there were enough battles.
“If only I could have the chance to continuously fight initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists like I did in the virtual space.”
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Chu Nan’s gaze landed on a young man passing by on the left and he was slightly shocked.
