Chapter 18 - The Schools Big Martial Arts Competition (1/2)

Chapter 18 – The School’s Big Martial Arts Compet.i.tion

“What is it?” Xia Ping blinked, looking at Jiang Yaru.

“There’s something I have to tell you,” she said. “The school will be holding a big martial arts compet.i.tion three days from now and every grade twelve cla.s.s will have ten spots. Originally, Yang Wei also had a spot, but due to being arrested by the police and unable to come back in a short amount of time, I’m now offering that spot to you. Do you want to enter the compet.i.tion this time?”

Speaking up to here, she had a very bizarre expression on her face. If she remembered correctly, the reason that Yang Wei had been arrested in the first place was because of this fellow. Now that she thought about it, Yang Wei was originally a good student, but after provoking this baddie, his reputation was completely ruined.

She had no idea what Yang Wei would be like after getting out of jail.

“The school’s big martial arts compet.i.tion?!” Xia Ping’s eyes flashed.

He had also heard about this contest. It was a big duelling compet.i.tion held by the school every year that almost all of the school’s outstanding students attended. If one won, then there would be a prize.

Of course, the school’s prize wasn’t what was important. What really mattered was that if one could score in the top ten, then they would be qualified to represent the ninety fifth high school in the High School Battle of Skywater City.

The High School Battle was a compet.i.tion where all of the strongest high schoolers in Skywater City gathered and was focused on by many people. Not only were there large prizes for the partic.i.p.ants, if one won they could even join the military for training to improve their strength.

Every year, those students who had the opportunity to display their extraordinary strength in Skywater City’s High School Battle were all very likely to be able to enter Yanhuang University.

Previously, this didn’t have anything to do with Xia Ping nor did he concern himself with it in any way, but things were different now. If he played his cards right, then he would be able to earn a lot of Hatred Points through this compet.i.tion and increase his strength.

”No one would object if I represent the cla.s.s in joining the school’s big martial arts compet.i.tion?” Xia Ping asked, looking at Jiang Yaru for an answer.

“Absolutely no objections.”

Jiang Yaru shook her head, “After all, you beat Xiong Batian and showed your strength. With such a record, I don’t think the other studs will have any objections at all.”

That was normal.

The proof of one’s martial strength was their battle record!

Whoever you could be victorious against in battle represented just how strong you were. Although Xia Ping was just an average student with nothing to him before, but he recently won against Xiong Batian in battle on the Soaring Dragon Platform, that was his record.

Even amongst all the thirty six cla.s.ses of grade twelve, there were very few people who could beat Xiong Batian, so n.o.body would object against Xia Ping representing his cla.s.s in the contest.

If they did object though, all that was needed was one question.

What, could you beat Xiong Batian?

There was nothing they could say at that point.

However, even now, Jiang Yaru was still in disbelief. The originally plain and average Xia Ping actually managed to quietly break through to the fourth layer of Martial Disciple. Not only that, he even managed to win against somebody as strong as Xiong Batian! It was all just too miraculous! What the heck did he experience?

”Got it. I’ll join then,” Xia Ping immediately agreed. He absolutely wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

“Okay. I’ll add your name to the list then,” Jiang Yaru nodded. After that was taken care of, she couldn’t help but ask, “Xia Ping, I’ve noticed that you haven’t been very focused in cla.s.s recently. Is there something wrong?”
