Chapter 53: The School Competition Begins
"Look, Li Hanxue is coming down."
Li Hanxue walked down slowly from the eighth step. Seeing this, everyone surrounded Li Hanxue like a tide.
"Who will win or lose?" A student asked cautiously with a nervous look.
"Is there any need to say this? Look at Li Hanxue, he didn't even break a sweat. He must have felt inferior and surrendered in the middle of the process." The student who supported Xie Hao laughed.
"With Xie Hao's strength, you should know if he could lose if you think about it." Another tall student followed suit.
"You have seen how strong Xie Hao is. If he is at the sixth level of martial arts, how many people in this academy can be his opponent? You are still doubting that Xie Hao will lose? It's ridiculous."
The discussion of the crowd almost all leaned towards Xie Hao.
"Is this true? Which level did Xie Hao finally reach, and which level did you reach?" someone else asked.
Li Hanxue smiled and shook her head, saying, "You can ask Xie Hao yourself."
If she said that she had won against Xie Hao, I'm afraid many people present would sneer and not believe it. Li Hanxue didn't want to expose his strength too much. The college competition would be held in four days. If people knew that his strength had recovered, he would be targeted by some people with ulterior motives, which would only bring him harm and no benefit.
Li Hanxue passed through the crowd. Su Xiaoya was still standing there waiting for a long time. Li Hanxue just nodded to Su Xiaoya, and Su Xiaoya smiled knowingly. She knew that Li Hanxue had won.
The two of them strolled in the grove by the lake. Li Hanxue's body grew taller and stronger. From the same height as Su Xiaoya at the beginning, he was now more than half a head taller than Su Xiaoya.
Su Xiaoya looked at Li Hanxue's profile, turned her head and said, "Brother Hanxue, you are not injured in today's competition, right?"
"I'm fine, don't worry."
"At which level did you decide the winner?" Su Xiaoya said.
Li Hanxue looked at Su Xiaoya's delicate face, with a sly smile in her eyes: "Xiaoya, you want to know the result just like them?"
"Of course I want to know. In front of everyone, Brother Hanxue must be afraid of exposing his strength, so he deliberately didn't say it. Now there are only two of us, just tell me."
Li Hanxue smiled bitterly: "It seems that nothing can be hidden from you. Xie Hao and I decided the winner at the eighth level."
Su Xiaoya has always believed that Li Hanxue can fully recover his cultivation, but to reach the eighth level, he needs the cultivation of the eighth level of Ruowu Realm, which is too shocking.
Su Xiaoya couldn't help showing surprise on her face, "Brother Hanxue, has your cultivation reached the eighth level of Ruowu Realm?"
"How could it be possible to break through so quickly? My current cultivation is the fifth level of Ruowu Realm. Thanks to Xiaokong, I can achieve such an achievement in half a year."
"The fifth level of Ruowu Realm?" Su Xiaoya was even more surprised, "How could the fifth level of Ruowu Realm reach the eighth level?"
"Since returning to Canglan Academy, I found that my body has undergone some changes, and the true energy in my body is stronger than that of ordinary people."
Su Xiaoya's little face suddenly flushed. It turned out that Li Hanxue's right hand suddenly grabbed her hand. Su Xiaoya's face suddenly changed, and a strong true energy slowly passed into her body, vast and majestic, like a surging wave.
"Brother Hanxue, the martial arts true qi in your body is comparable to that of masters above the eighth level of Ruowu Realm. No wonder you can reach the eighth level. If Xiaoya meets Brother Hanxue in the inner courtyard selection, Brother Hanxue must let me go."
"What are you thinking, little girl? How could I attack you?"
"I won't attack Brother Hanxue either." Su Xiaoya laughed, "But there is one thing I don't understand. Xie Hao's strength should be at the sixth level of Ruowu Realm. How could he reach the eighth level?"
"He took the Qi-boosting Pill."
Su Xiaoya's eyes were immediately filled with anger, and she said angrily: "Taking the Qi-boosting Pill is a foul. Xie Hao actually did this to win Brother Hanxue."
"Xie Hao must be dissatisfied with his loss. He will definitely make a comeback in the college competition. We must be more careful then."
"Well, I will be on guard."
...
Four days have passed in the blink of an eye. Today is the annual inner courtyard selection. For the students of the outer courtyard of Canglan College, it is crucial and can be said to be a battle of fate.
Especially for the third-year students, today's battle can be said to determine their future prospects. If they win, they can enter the inner courtyard, where they can learn and practice, and from then on, they will become dragons. After leaving the inner courtyard, they will either become a martial arts master and be respected, or a general, commanding thousands of troops. From then on, their lives will no longer be mediocre, but full of different excitement.
If they lose, the ending will be bleak and bleak. They will go back to where they came from. If they quit Canglan Academy, they will not have the guidance of famous teachers, and there will be no massive resources to support their practice. If there is no great opportunity, then they will almost stop forever on the road of martial arts and will find it difficult to make any progress. Without progress in martial arts, it is impossible to achieve anything great on the Nebula Continent, and they can only become a caterpillar struggling in the mediocre world.
What determines whether you are a dragon or a worm is the five places in today's inner courtyard selection. Thousands of elite disciples are competing for five places at the same time. The cruelty and fierceness of the competition can be imagined.
Therefore, you can only win, not lose!
It is spring at this time, the air is a little low, and there is a drizzle, the rain is hitting people's faces, and it is cool. When Li Hanxue walked to Jingwu Square, the square was already crowded with people. Jingwu Square was very grand, bowl-shaped, with a wide square in the center and surrounded by stone steps. Under the arrangement of the college, it was divided into several Thousands of places for spectators to sit.
Not long after Li Hanxue entered the square, he heard someone calling his name from a distance.
"Brother Hanxue, here!" Su Xiaoya smiled and waved to Li Hanxue from a distance.
Li Hanxue smiled knowingly and walked towards Su Xiaoya.
"Isn't Teacher Ma here yet?" Li Hanxue asked.
"Not yet. Teacher Ma said he would come to watch our game today, but now the game is about to start and we can't see him yet."
Li Hanxue smiled bitterly: "Teacher Ma is always like this, don't worry, he will come."
No one in Canglan Academy will not pay attention to any inner court selection competition. Even the students’ mentors will come in person to cheer for the students. After all, if the students succeed and enter the inner court, then the mentor’s face will also be bright. There are also opportunities for promotion and there are many benefits.
Almost all the instructors in the college have arrived, but Ma Hualang has not come yet. Li Hanxue has long been accustomed to Ma Hualang's style, and he will not show up until the last moment.
At this moment, the tutors of the college were discussing this year's inner court selection competition in small groups. There were three tutors beside Li Hanxue and Su Xiaoya who were talking loudly and nonstop.
