28: Chapter 28 Magic and Martial Arts Target, Qingyao Ning'er
"Students from Star Martial University, do you have anything to say?"
Next, a reporter from New Martial Media interviewed the Prodigy Cadets from the nearby Star Martial University.
Last year, Star Martial was the Top Ten university that almost ended Imperial Martial Arts University's winning streak.
It was also an extremely powerful top-tier university among the Top Ten.
"In last year's Battle of the Dawn finals, Star Martial University narrowly lost to Imperial Capital Martial Arts University. At that time, I saw the Star Martial seniors slumped on the ring, weeping uncontrollably. That image is something I will never forget..."
"At that moment, I thought, if I could become a student of Star Martial University, I must win everything. Now, the Battle of the Dawn is right before us, and I must consider if this is the only chance I'll have in this life..."
"I admit, the students of Imperial Martial Arts University are indeed very strong. However, it is the duty of our generation to restore the glory of Star Martial University..."
A high-spirited youth from Star Martial slowly raised his head, his tone incredibly firm, seemingly filled with the determination to win...
"It doesn't matter, I will take action..."
"I'm already studying my opponents for the World Martial Arts Competition..."
...
One by one, the top prodigies released their bold declarations at the Magic Cube Martial Arts Arena.
Before the main event of the Battle of the Dawn had even begun, the smell of gunpowder seemed to have already been ignited...
...
Magic Cube Martial Arts Arena, Magic Martial Arts Training Room.
Over a dozen top Magic Martial Arts freshman prodigies gathered in the training room.
"In this Battle of the Dawn, the biggest goal is Imperial Martial Arts University!"
At the front of the training room, a silver-haired youth dressed in black spoke indifferently, his face expressionless.
"It would be best if our Magic Martial Arts can win the championship, but if we can't, don't let Imperial Martial Arts University have it..."
"I will not allow Imperial Martial Arts University to achieve a five-year winning streak here on our home turf in Magic City..."
"Do you all understand?"
Although the youth's voice wasn't loud, it was like a heavy hammer striking the bodies of the Magic Martial Arts prodigies, making them feel a heavy pressure.
"Brother Chen, we understand! We will stop Imperial Martial Arts University from achieving their five-year winning streak at all costs!"
"We will definitely stop Imperial Martial Arts University at all costs!"
The other Magic Martial Arts prodigies in the training room also spoke up.
"Brother Chen, your talent is so strong; you will surely be invincible this time and suppress everything!"
Another youth wearing suspenders smiled.
"Xu Kun, don't be careless. The martial arts prodigies of our Great Xia are as numerous as crucian carp crossing a river. Who dares to claim invincibility? Who dares to claim they will never be defeated?"
Chen Zheng said calmly, his expression remaining peaceful, not influenced by Xu Kun's words at all.
"Alright, go practice on your own and prepare for the main competition!"
After Chen Zheng finished speaking, he addressed the group.
Then, everyone left the training room one by one.
"Qing Yao, wait for me! Let's train together!"
In the training room, the Imperial Martial Arts University prodigy Shen Ninger waved to Gu Qingyao and said.
Gu Qingyao hesitated for a moment but still waited in place for a while.
After a short while, Shen Ninger, dressed in a white martial arts uniform with delicate features, came to Gu Qingyao's side, and the two went to the training room hand in hand.
After entering the training room, Gu Qingyao directly adjusted the gravity to five times.
Immediately, an overwhelming pressure poured down, making both Gu Qingyao and Shen Ninger feel immense pressure.
"Wait, Qing Yao, there's no need to push yourself so hard!"
The immense pressure caused Shen Ninger to stagger, nearly falling to the ground.
"The Battle of the Dawn is about to start; we must seize every moment!"
Gu Qingyao said while practicing her martial techniques.
"Qing Yao, there's really no need to work so hard. We're just small fry with S-rank Talent. You don't actually think winning the championship depends on us, do you?"
Shen Ninger said with a bitter face, feeling somewhat helpless.
She had always heard that Gu Qingyao trained very hard to improve her strength.
Originally, Shen Ninger thought it was a bit of an exaggeration; after all, who among those studying at the Top Ten wouldn't exert all their effort to improve their martial arts strength?
But training directly under five times gravity was truly beyond Shen Ninger's expectations.
Hearing Shen Ninger's words, Gu Qingyao was silent for a moment.
Then, Gu Qingyao ignored her, took out a tube of Genetic Medicine, swallowed it directly, and then circulated her Breathing Technique to absorb the pure power within the medicine.
Looking at Gu Qingyao, who had already entered a state of cultivation, Shen Ninger looked helpless.
"It's not like you don't know, Chen Zheng is at the top. He has SS-rank Talent and is a descendant of a Martial Saint Family. When the time comes, he will take action, and we can just cheer for him!"
Shen Ninger continued slowly.
"Then you can just wait. I'll do my own training!"
Gu Qingyao said slowly.
Shen Ninger sighed and continued, "The path of martial arts requires a balance of tension and relaxation. Constant tension will only affect efficiency. You should learn from your Vocational College ex-boyfriend. You have no idea how much fun that guy is having, every day he's either ** or **..."
"Don't talk about his matters!"
Before Shen Ninger could finish, Gu Qingyao immediately interrupted her.
Perhaps because of Gu Qingyao, Shen Ninger often looked for information about Zhou Bai.
"Fine, then I won't say it. I originally wanted to see what kind of sparks would fly if you two met when he comes to participate in the Battle of the Dawn..."
Shen Ninger shrugged and then spoke slowly.
"You said Zhou Bai will participate in the Battle of the Dawn?"
At this moment, Gu Qingyao slowly raised her head and looked at Shen Ninger seriously.
"Heehee, I thought you really weren't interested in him anymore!"
Hearing Gu Qingyao's words, Shen Ninger smiled, looking at Gu Qingyao with a cunning gaze.
Gu Qingyao didn't speak, just remained silent. Although the two had gone their separate ways, how could Gu Qingyao easily forget years of feelings?
They hadn't taken the final step, but they had done everything else. How could Gu Qingyao forget?
"Qing Yao, you don't still like him, do you?"
Shen Ninger looked at Gu Qingyao's expression and then frowned.
"Whether I like him or not doesn't matter anymore. The moment he chose the Vocational College, we were destined to have no future!"
Gu Qingyao then said with a serious face.
"Good, Qing Yao, I'm relieved that you're still level-headed!"
Shen Ninger said slowly.
"As far as I know, Zhou Bai will indeed participate in the Battle of the Dawn. Right now, he might already be at the Magic Cube Martial Arts Arena..."
"What, are you going to go catch up with him?"
Shen Ninger then looked up at Gu Qingyao.
"No need. It's fine if he comes. If we meet on the field..."
Gu Qingyao lightly bit her red lip, her eyes flickering, and the Power of Ice within her body surged continuously.
"I will make him understand exactly how much he lost for those momentary pleasures!!!"
"Since he chose a Vocational College, he should just stay there and rot. Why come to participate in the Battle of the Dawn!!!"
