19: Chapter 19: One experience pack after another! A sneak attack? Next one!
"Isn't it the Savage's class today? You guys dare to skip?"
"Skip? What are you talking about! Just now, the teachers from all the classes notified us to gather at the martial arts arena! I heard someone from another school is here to stir up trouble, trying to suppress our entire school by himself!"
"What!? Who doesn't know the reputation of Jiangcheng No. 1 High School? Are those small fries from other schools really daring to come here to cause trouble? And alone, too!? Is he looking for a death wish? We don't even need the freak ranked first to make a move; I bet anyone from the Top Ten Experts could beat him to the ground!"
"Who cares if he's looking for a death wish? At least we don't have to attend the Savage's perverted class. If we actually get beaten to death, it'll be good practice. When we go to get our martial artist certifications later and go out to hunt fierce beasts for real, we won't be shaking in our boots at the sight of blood, like someone who's done it seven or eight times in one night."
"Stop bragging! You, capable of seven or eight times in one night? The total duration probably doesn't even exceed three minutes, right?"
...
Led by their various teachers, the crowd poured out from the classrooms.
On the way to the martial arts arena, it was very noisy. Everyone had curiosity in their eyes; there was not the slightest feeling of urgency.
To them, who had always taken pride in Jiangcheng No. 1 High School.
In all of Jiangcheng, at their age, it was impossible for anyone to be better than them!
At least... they definitely couldn't challenge the entire school alone!
It must be a joke!
In one of the queues, Luo Qingxue walked alone, her gaze cold and her aura powerful. The surrounding classmates subconsciously kept a considerable distance from her.
Listening to the discussions around her, Luo Qingxue's eyes flickered.
For some reason, she suddenly thought of the figure she had seen a few days ago.
She had originally intended to thank that person after she got out.
But she hadn't expected that due to her severe injuries, she was taken away by the elders of her family as soon as she came out.
When she went back to ask later, she learned that the person had already left.
As for information, because it involved personal privacy, she, a bloodline not valued by the Luo family, simply didn't have the status to know.
But the scene where he took the knife was deeply imprinted in her mind.
It also let her know that outside of Jiangcheng No. 1 High School, there were such powerful peers!
"Could it be... that the person they are talking about is him?"
For some reason, Luo Qingxue felt a glimmer of anticipation, and her pace couldn't help but quicken a little.
...
Martial Arts Arena.
Wang Jincheng was smiling, an expression that made Lu Qingyun want to slap him.
Unfortunately, considering the current gap in strength, he gave up on this impractical idea.
"Lu Qingyun, have you thought it through?"
"Are you really going to stand on this stage alone and beat down all the martial artists among the students of my Jiangcheng No. 1 High School?"
Wang Jincheng said in a loud voice.
The voice was loud and clearly reached the ears of all the students present.
Immediately, it stirred up a commotion!
Arrogant!
Too arrogant!
This method was clearly pure humiliation to them!
No matter how strong one is, a person's stamina is ultimately limited!
He might be able to beat one, two, or even ten!
But after round after round of attrition, even a hundred pigs would be worn out!
Not to mention, the experts in their Jiangcheng No. 1 High School might not necessarily be weaker than this young man who was spouting such wild words!
"Too arrogant! Why does this guy think he can challenge all of us? He looks weak and frail; I could beat him to the ground by myself!"
"Exactly, exactly."
"Damn! I can't take it anymore. I want to go up first! So many weapons have been brought over, which means weapons are allowed, right? Then my great blade is hungry and thirsty!"
Lu Qingyun glanced at the guy who said his great blade was hungry and thirsty, and after memorizing his appearance, he said quite helplessly: "Wasn't this format determined by you?"
"Or... should I only send the ten strongest from your school to spar with me?"
After speaking, seeing the slight change in Wang Jincheng's expression, Lu Qingyun smiled.
Changing the subject, he looked at the students of the same age present. When he didn't see the person he wanted to see, he was a little disappointed.
But his face still carried a mocking expression. He shrugged his shoulders and said: "Actually... it's all the same."
"I don't care."
He stood on the stage, his gaze rebellious.
Looking around at everyone, his voice was calm and casual.
"The first one, who's coming?"
"Me!"
Located at the very front, the boy who had been noted by Lu Qingyun jumped up.
He held a refined long blade in his hand, his gaze sharp, and there were calluses on the web of his hand, clearly having practiced for a long time.
"I, Ao— —Ow!"
After an extremely painful howl, this first boy didn't even get to state his name before he was punched in the chest by Lu Qingyun!
From the very crisp and loud sound of shattering bones, one could completely tell how much damage this punch had caused!
With just one strike, he directly lost the ability to resist.
After Lu Qingyun took the long blade from his hand, he kicked him off!
From the moment he got on the stage to his heavy defeat.
The total time was less than three seconds!
[Defeated LV3 human martial artist, level experience +17, HP limit +11...]
Listening to the prompt ringing in his ears.
Looking at the angry experience packs one after another below, Lu Qingyun carried the long blade on his back and said lightly: "Next."
Whoosh—!
The defeat in the first battle not only failed to make them accept it.
Instead, everyone was completely enraged!
"Shameless!! You attacked before it even started; this is an ambush!! A victory without honor!"
"You're so cruel; it's just a sparring match, and you still use such vicious moves. Are you even human!"
In their view, Lu Qingyun's behavior was completely an ambush.
Such conduct was truly hateful!
"Ambush? Heh—"
Lu Qingyun was not angry but laughed instead. He turned his head to look at Wang Jincheng, who was standing not far away with a grave expression.
"Principal Wang, do you think this is an ambush?"
Wang Jincheng did not choose to answer directly, but after a moment of silence, he said: "Once you step onto the ring, it is considered the start of the challenge. After all, in battles between martial artists and fierce beasts, they won't give you time for an opening speech."
"Additionally... in the struggle of martial artists, fists and feet have no eyes. As long as you don't intentionally endanger lives, anything goes."
While saying this, Wang Jincheng's gaze fell on Lu Qingyun.
His words were not only for Lu Qingyun but also to let the students know.
As long as you can win, you can... pay back blood with blood!
"Then this second one, I'll take it."
A very solid voice sounded, exceptionally loud, echoing in the arena.
A figure with bulging muscles, tall and sturdy like a small mountain, casually pushed aside the students in front of him like toys. After clearing a path, he walked onto the martial arts stage.
He looked at Lu Qingyun and revealed an exceptionally ferocious smile.
His entire aura was like a fierce beast, making people feel fear involuntarily!
"It's actually Stone Ape, this big gorilla! He is the seventh-ranked expert, born with divine strength, a person destined to enter a key martial arts university!"
"Tsk tsk, although for martial artists, body size cannot be the only standard for judging strength. But the size difference between these two is too big; the strength difference must be huge!"
"Go! Big gorilla! Smash his head in!!"
Someone shouted excitedly.
However, the moment after he shouted, the crowd around him hurriedly stayed away as if they had seen a plague god, clearing out the space around him.
Before he could realize what was happening, a huge shadow enveloped him.
He raised his head and saw Stone Ape's ferocious face, with an expression of deathly calm on it!
"Say that again. I didn't hear you clearly just now."
