At nine in the morning on West Cloud Planet, the seventh round of the martial arts competition officially began.
Unlike the previous two days, the competition had to be divided into different times. Because there were only hundreds of participants left on the third day, the existing venue was already enough for all the competitions to be carried out simultaneously.
In the 256 competitions of the adult group and the 128 competitions of the group under the age of 20, people’s attention was naturally divided.
To the live audience of the Earth Federation and the audience who had watched through various broadcast channels, they naturally paid more attention to the competitions that famous martial artists participated in.
Clearly, the adult group competition had a natural advantage in this because only adults would be stronger and more famous.
Among them, the competition between the only nine Void Break Martial Artists received the most attention. The Earth Federation’s Martial Arts World Channel even directly broadcasted a competition between Void Break Martial Artists from the Earth Federation.
In comparison, other competitions below the age of 20 were also highly watched, and in a sense, they were even more eye-catching than those in the adult group.
This was because the previous data had already shown that in the group below the age of 20, the young martial artists of the Earth Federation could not even make up one-sixth of the remaining participants!
Moreover, according to the detailed statistics of a certain someone on the Milky Way Network, even among the remaining 42 young martial artists of the Earth’s Federation under the age of 20, the number of those who really had hope of winning the championship was small.
According to the statistics, among the remaining 42 young martial artists, only one young martial artist had the strength of a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. Four young martial artists had the strength of an initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, and the remaining 37
young martial artists were all only Overlord Body Realm Martial Artists.
Compared to the powerful strength of the other countries’ participating martial artists who were on average initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists, the young martial artists of the Earth Federation were undoubtedly much inferior.
Therefore, before the seventh round of the competition began, someone speculated pessimistically that only after the seventh round ended would more than half of the remaining young martial artists of the Earth Federation be eliminated.
When the eighth and ninth rounds ended, the worst outcome was that even a martial artist belonging to the Earth Federation could not stay!
If not even a single young martial artist from the Earth Federation could enter the finals, this West Cloud Planet’s martial artist competition would simply be the greatest humiliation to the Earth Federation!
Due to the evaluation of strength, most of the gazes focused on the competition below the age of 20 were focused on the few Internal Breath Realm young martial artists of the Earth Federation. Only a small number of people would focus on the competition between the other young martial artists of the
Earth Federation.
As for an ordinary young martial artist like Chu Nan who was not famous at all and was not even an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, no one paid attention to him.
Even the cheerleaders of the West Cloud Academy were almost all sent to Feng Xiao’s competition venue to cheer for him, the son of the dean and a fourth-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist.
Chu Nan did not know the situation of the competition on Feng Xiao’s side and did not care about such things. All his attention was focused on his opponent.
This participant with a number of 6830 and who came from the Phezzan Autonomous Region was called Chloe. As soon as he appeared, he bluntly revealed his strength as an Internal Breath Martial Artist, causing the few Earth Federation audiences around him to instantly lose confidence in Chu Nan.
“Sigh, this 12333 seems to be only at the low-stage Overlord Body Realm. How can he defeat an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist?”
“That’s right. He’s still a participating student of the West Cloud Academy, right? This West Cloud Academy is really getting worse year by year. Even a student with such poor strength can be sent out to be a representative.”
“Speaking of which, how did this guy pass the first six rounds? Could it be that his luck was so good that he encountered lower-level Overlord Body Martial Artists in the first six rounds?”
“Could it be that some important figure specially took care of this kid, so the competition schedule was specially arranged?”
“What’s the use? Doesn’t he still have to encounter experts and be beaten?”
Although the loud discussion of the audience below the stage surged into Chu Nan’s ears, it did not cause any change in his expression.
He glanced at Chloe opposite him and saw that he was still putting on a loose appearance with a disdainful smile. He took a step forward and circulated the Nine Revolutions Technique. The Internal Breath in his body flowed as he threw a punch.
Chloe’s eyes narrowed.
Chu Nan’s punch seemed ordinary, but the speed of his punch was abnormally fast. When the tip of his fist struck, an ear-piercing sound could be heard. It could be seen that the force behind his punch was extremely shocking.
“How can this guy be only a low-level Overlord Body Martial Artist?!”
As soon as the shocking thought arose in Chloe’s mind, Chu Nan’s fist approached.
Chloe had previously underestimated Chu Nan and was not prepared for battle. Now, he was actually unable to react in time and could only hurriedly raise his right hand to block his chest.
He did not have any frightened thoughts. Instead, he sneered in his mind.
Even if Chu Nan’s strength surpassed what he had seen on the surface, he was only an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist in the end. If this fellow dared to face an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist like him, he would be courting death.
As expected, just as he was about to punch Chloe’s palm, Chu Nan flipped his wrist and his right fist changed an angle to strike the space under the ribs.
Although Chloe was surprised by Chu Nan’ fast and precise change in move, he was even more relieved.
Chu Nan clearly did not dare to fight him head-on. Then, it was time for him, an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, to show his true strength!
Facing Chu Nan’s variable attack, Chloe did not dodge at all. Instead, he straightened his chest and similarly threw a punch at him.
He could estimate that because he was counterattacking, this punch should only hit after Chu Nan’s punch landed.
However, he was a powerful Internal Breath Martial Artist while Chu Nan was only an ordinary low-level Overlord Body Martial Artist. Even if Chu Nan’s punch landed firmly on his body, it was impossible for it to cause any damage to him under the protection of his Internal Breath.
On the contrary, it was impossible for Chu Nan to endure his punch that had a powerful Internal Breath. If he really dared to exchange blows with him, he would at least be heavily injured.
Therefore, Chu Nan’s only choice was to retreat.
As long as Chu Nan dared to take the first step back, Chloe was certain that he would definitely defeat him in ten moves!
However, under the shocked gazes of the audience and Chloe, it was as if Chu Nan did not sense this terrifying outcome. He also did not dodge or even change his posture as his right fist went straight for Chloe’s ribs.
Although Chloe was surprised, it was too late to change his move. Moreover, why did he need to change his move? He similarly maintained his move and threw a punch at Chu Nan.
The first confrontation after the two of them went up the stage had actually directly become the most tragic exchange of injuries!
Chu Nan’s upper body moved slightly. His fist was about half a second earlier than Chloe’s estimation and firmly struck the lower left ribs.
Chloe felt an extremely huge and irresistible force explode from Chu Nam’s fist.
In the next moment, his body had already flown into the air. He passed the guardrail of the competition venue and fell heavily outside..
