Martial Arts are Too Involuted, and If You are Not Careful, You Can Quickly Pass the High Martial Arts

146: Why are there still people fighting to lose? Martial Arts School CompetitionAs Yang Zhen’s voice faded, students on Star River Academy’s plaza looked at the scene and couldn’t help but exclaim.

”He truly is the number one among the younger generation of our Star River Academy; his actions are so honorable.”

”That’s right. If I were Yang Zhen, I would never have said such a thing. After all, he’s a Ninth-Order Expert, and losing to a Second-Order Expert—if that got out, it would be a bit embarrassing.”

As Yang Zhen’s words fell, many Star River Academy students couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

Ye Chen, in the Void Realm battlefield, initially showed no reaction to Yang Zhen’s words, but as time passed, he suddenly noticed something was amiss.

It was because... the proficiency boost from the System had decreased!

A decrease in the proficiency boost from the System could only mean one thing: either he hadn’t stimulated others in the outside world, or... someone else had stolen his thunder!

In simple terms, someone else had taken all the glory!

Ye Chen couldn’t tolerate this. He narrowed his eyes at Yang Zhen, then quickly shook his head: ”No, no, no. A loss is a loss. I admit I’m inferior!”

”I truly am a good-for-nothing; I can’t even be invincible within the same Realm!”

Ye Chen’s seemingly self-deprecating words made many people’s mouths twitch, and even Yang Zhen’s gaze towards Ye Chen became a bit strange.

Am I even considered to be in the same Realm as you?

As these words came out, Ye Chen also noticed that the proficiency boost from the System immediately went up again, and his heart instantly felt delighted.

On the high platform, Li Chengfeng looked at the suddenly humble Ye Chen and vaguely felt something was off. After all, from what he knew of Ye Chen, this guy would absolutely not be so humble.

If he could show off... this guy would never hesitate.

But after hearing the discussions among the Star River Academy students, Li Chengfeng immediately understood Ye Chen’s intentions.

”Tsk tsk tsk, heroes cherishing each other! Senior Brother Yang Zhen is like this, and I didn’t expect Ye Chen to be the same. Truly worthy of being a Prodigy of our Star River Academy!”

”Exactly. Neither of them cares about their ranking; this is what we should learn from most!”

As voices rose, Li Chengfeng’s mouth twitched slightly. He finally shook his head helplessly: ”This brat... so that’s where his plan was.”

In the Void Realm battlefield, Yang Zhen looked at Ye Chen and smiled lightly, clearly understanding Ye Chen’s intentions. But as the number one student of Star River Academy, and also a ’King of Bragging,’ he wouldn’t admit defeat!

”No, I lost! You are, after all, a Ninth-Order Expert...”

”Bullshit! I clearly lost. If I can’t beat you, I can’t beat you...”

”I lost!”

”I lost!”

The two kept speaking, and as they spoke, they grew more agitated, glaring angrily at each other.

This scene, falling into the eyes of the Star River Academy instructors and students, made them all fall into silence.

”How do I feel... the style suddenly became a bit off?”

”It was clearly a good scene of mutual humility, but how did it...”

A Star River Academy student fell silent at this moment.

”Damn it, I’m the one who lost!”

Ye Chen glared at Yang Zhen, his eyes turning crimson.

Damn it, trying to steal his proficiency?

There are no such words as ’yielding’ in Ye’s dictionary!

”I clearly lost! What? Not convinced? Let’s fight again!”

Yang Zhen also got angry, thinking, ’I’m the number one ’King of Bragging’ of Star River Academy, and I haven’t even graduated yet. How can I let you snatch this title?’

As they spoke, the two rolled up their sleeves, showing a strong inclination to continue fighting.

Li Chengfeng looked at this scene and finally couldn’t hold back.

”You two... get out of here!”

Li Chengfeng roared, and with a wave of his hand, he instantly dragged Ye Chen and Yang Zhen out of the Void Realm battlefield.

”Is a mere win or loss worth acting like this? You’ve completely shamed our Star River Academy!”

Li Chengfeng reprimanded the two.

Facing Li Chengfeng’s reprimand, the two instantly became well-behaved. Even though one was the number one Prodigy of Star River Academy, and the other was the number one student of Star River Academy’s younger generation.

But in the face of a Ninth-Order Expert like Li Chengfeng... all their temper had to be obediently put away.

”Hmph! For this monthly exam, your scores are canceled!”

Li Chengfeng snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, he directly took the two away from the Star River Academy plaza.

”The monthly exam continues!”

After Li Chengfeng said this, his figure also disappeared from the Star River Academy plaza along with Ye Chen.

Only the silent instructors and students remained, looking at each other... Li Chengfeng led Ye Chen and Yang Zhen to an office. Looking at them standing like little soldiers, he couldn’t help but find it amusing.

”What? Not so Divine Qi now? Where’s the ability you had when arguing earlier? Bring it all out; I want to see how much Divine Qi you two have!”

Li Chengfeng sat directly in the office chair, crossing his legs, and looked at the two.

The two shook their heads frantically, not daring to speak a word.

Seeing this, Li Chengfeng no longer dwelled on the matter. He then slowly said: ”Bringing you two out here is also because I have two tasks for you.”

Ye Chen raised his head in confusion, greatly puzzled. Yang Zhen, on the other hand, seemed to have thought of something and couldn’t help but pout, saying.

”What’s the point of bullying those guys?”

Li Chengfeng glared at Yang Zhen and said irritably: ”What do you mean ’bullying’? It’s clearly about stimulating them, giving them some pressure. With pressure comes motivation, which will make them strive hard and look up to our Star River Academy!”

Ye Chen, who was listening in a fog, couldn’t help but raise his hand and ask: ”No, Old Li, what exactly is it? I don’t understand!”

Li Chengfeng took a sip of tea and said to Yang Zhen: ”You explain it to him.”

Yang Zhen sighed helplessly but still said to Ye Chen: ”What the Vice Dean is talking about should be the Martial Arts Academy Tournament!”

”Academy Tournament?”

”Mm, every year, all Martial Arts Academies in Great Xia hold a tournament. The tournament is divided into two categories: a New Student Tournament and a Senior Student Tournament!”

”The so-called New Student Tournament is a competition for students enrolled by the various Martial Arts Academies within the last three years.”

”And the Senior Student Tournament is a competition for students who have been in the various Martial Arts Academies for more than three years but less than ten years.”

”The rankings in these two competitions determine the ranking of the Martial Arts Academies, and the ranking, in turn, affects the degree of resource allocation the academy receives from the Great Xia Martial Alliance.”
