Chapter 1370: The Martial Might War God Technique
Peerless Medicine God · 第1370章 武蒙战神诀
"How arrogant! This guy has some potential, but to surpass Jia Chong, he's probably still too green."
"Based on Jia Chong's strength, he should at least be in the top three in the third round, right? With such overall strength, Ye Yuan really dares to say that!"
"Hey, this kid is probably getting cocky! He thinks that just because he did well in the first round, he can look down on everyone else. He doesn't realize that even in the first round, Jia Chong wasn't far behind him."
...
Ye Yuan's words immediately stirred a commotion among the crowd.
These words were a bit arrogant!
Ye Yuan's performance in the first round was indeed impressive, but in the second round, he immediately showed his true colors.
His overall strength was not on the same level as Jia Chong's at all.
After two rounds, Ye Yuan's results had become mediocre.
Not to mention Jia Chong, even some of those ranked lower had overtaken him from behind.
"Hahaha... You really dare to say that! I'd like to see how you surpass me! How about we compete in the third round? What do you say?" Jia Chong said with an imposing air.
The third round, Tongming, tested comprehension!
Will, strength, and comprehension—these were the true purposes of the three rounds of assessment at the Martial Might Academy.
Only those who passed all three rounds were worthy of being trained by the Martial Might Academy and becoming formal students.
Jia Chong was certain that Ye Yuan was just putting up a bluff and wouldn't dare to compete with him.
Judging by bone age, he and Ye Yuan were about the same.
But he was now at the Great Perfection of Dongxuan, while Ye Yuan was only at the mid stage of Dongxuan.
Just from their cultivation levels, that already said a lot.
Martial will had nothing to do with cultivation level, but comprehension was closely related to it.
Ye Yuan looked at Jia Chong with a half-smile and said, "Alright, how do you want to compete?"
Jia Chong sneered inwardly, thinking that this guy was just putting up a brave front and stubbornly holding on.
"In that case, I'll make you lose completely! I'll show you what happens when you stick up for that trash!" Jia Chong sneered in his heart.
"Let's compete on points! The winner gets all of the loser's points. Do you dare?" Jia Chong said with great momentum.
Ye Yuan was amused and laughed, "Since you're so generous, I'll reluctantly accept your points."
Everyone looked at Ye Yuan as if he were an idiot, thinking this guy had really lost his mind.
Xie Jingyi tugged at Ye Yuan's clothes and whispered, "Brother, I appreciate your kindness, but don't compete with him. You're no match for him. This guy is known as the number one genius of Huangning City, with extraordinary comprehension! No matter what technique or martial skill he gets, he can master it!"
Jia Chong laughed loudly, "Did you hear that? Ye Yuan, you need to know who you're bragging to! Not everyone can be called a genius!"
But Ye Yuan ignored him and cupped his hands toward the old man on the high platform, saying, "Student Ye Yuan requests the teacher to bear witness and make this bet with him!"
The old man had already noticed the situation but didn't say much.
The Martial Might Academy encouraged such competition, and harmless bets were not prohibited.
However, it was rare to see a bet made before even entering the academy, like today.
The old man nodded and said, "Agreed."
Ye Yuan's actions stunned everyone.
Was it settled just like that?
Had this Ye Yuan lost his mind?
"Ye Yuan, this..."
"Alright, stop being so fussy! If you're a man, just get through the third round properly and don't let others look down on you!" Ye Yuan said calmly.
Xie Jingyi's face was full of guilt. Hearing Ye Yuan's words, he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down! Jia Chong, don't blame us for bullying you! Teacher, if Ye Yuan's points aren't enough, I'll bet all my points too! If we win, all points go to Ye Yuan; if we lose, our points all go to him!"
Xie Jingyi didn't know where he found the courage to make such a decision.
Earlier, when he saw Jia Chong, he couldn't even speak, but now he unexpectedly showed such a passionate side.
Jia Chong didn't like Xie Jingyi's gaze!
He suddenly realized that this opponent he had always looked down on seemed to have truly grown up!
"Hey, fool! Since you're giving me points for free, I'll gladly accept! I'll show you what a real gap is!" Jia Chong sneered.
Ye Yuan looked at Xie Jingyi with some surprise, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled, "Don't worry, we won't lose. We'll split his points fifty-fifty."
Everyone was speechless. Had they already started dividing the spoils before the competition even began?
This guy was really too arrogant.
The old man looked at Ye Yuan with curiosity, wanting to see a hint of unease in his eyes.
But he was disappointed.
Ye Yuan looked confident, as if he didn't take Jia Chong seriously at all.
He wondered where Ye Yuan's confidence came from.
The second round had already fully exposed Ye Yuan's true level.
Maybe he had potential, but he was nowhere near as strong as he had shown in the first round.
He was about the same age as Jia Chong but two minor realms lower, a clear gap.
Of course, he kept these doubts to himself. He was curious to see how far Ye Yuan could go.
"Alright, those of you who have made it this far have already proven your strength. This third round is a test, but for you, it's also an opportunity! How much you can comprehend depends on your own fortune!" the old man said calmly.
Hearing the old man's words, everyone showed a hint of anticipation.
Among the three rounds of entrance assessment, the third round was the most mysterious.
Although everyone knew it tested comprehension, they didn't know the specific content.
Because the content of the third round was strictly confidential.
"Now, all of you must take a Heavenly Dao oath not to reveal any content of the third round to outsiders! Those unwilling to take the oath may withdraw now!" the old man said calmly.
Ye Yuan was also very curious. It seemed the content of the third round was somewhat special!
Under the old man's lead, everyone took the Heavenly Dao oath.
"Now, return to your lotus seats! The content of the third round is to comprehend a technique! The name of this technique is the 'Martial Might War God Technique'!" the old man said slowly.
A single stone stirred a thousand ripples. The old man's words immediately excited the remaining people.
"It's the 'Martial Might War God Technique'! I never thought we'd get to comprehend the 'Martial Might War God Technique'!"
"The 'Martial Might War God Technique' is the main cultivation technique of the city lord, which can be cultivated all the way to the Divine Lord realm! No wonder! No wonder the content of the third round has always been kept confidential!"
"What a blessing! To be able to comprehend the 'Martial Might War God Technique,' even if I'm eliminated in this round, it's worth it!"
"Even if I only comprehend a little, this technique is enough to benefit me for life!"
