3: Chapter 3 Martial Artist Level 6 [Third Update]
"Jiang Chenyi?" Fang Yu muttered to himself.
As a local of Wuling City and a student of Wuling Martial Arts College, he naturally had heard of the other's name... The top scorer in the martial arts college entrance examination was different from the top scorer in the academic college entrance examination.
The top scorer in the academic college entrance examination might attend a good academic university, but their future achievements were hard to predict, and quite a few faded into the crowd. Therefore, not many people truly paid attention to academic top scorers.
But for martial arts top scorers, the situation was completely different.
Since ancient times, literature has no first, and martial arts has no second.
In the martial arts college entrance examination, there was almost no such thing as taking shortcuts or relying on luck. One had to be extremely outstanding in many aspects such as physical talent, martial arts technique and Comprehension Ability, Void Star Constellation, combat awareness, and even family background to possibly become a top scorer.
On the other hand.
Martial Arts Cultivate from the age of 16 to 25 was the fastest period of growth, also known as the 'Golden Age Group', followed by the age of 25 to 30, known as the 'Silver Age Group'.
Being able to become a city martial arts top scorer around the age of 18 meant top-tier martial arts talent, and an immeasurable future.
Because of this.
Any martial arts student who could become a martial arts top scorer would become the absolute focus, shining ten or a hundred times brighter than an academic top scorer. Reporters from all walks of media and self-media would scramble to report on them... This could be seen from the rewards both sides received.
As far as Fang Yu knew, the state's direct reward for an academic city top scorer was generally tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of Star Coins, whereas the state reward for a martial arts city top scorer was at least several million Star Coins.
And this was only the first step. Afterwards, they would receive cultivation from their university, could sign early contracts with large martial arts conglomerates, and even become brand spokespersons.
This was a bright and dazzling path.
Compared to Jiang Chenyi, martial arts college students like Fang Yu were far too dim... Even though he was already an 'outstanding college student'.
"Comparing people to people really infuriates others." Xu Chenyang said with envy: "This Jiang Chenyi, just finishing his freshman year, already has such strength. By the time he graduates from university, he probably has hope of becoming an Earth Martial Artist."
Fang Yu fell into deep thought.
Before the Great Burning Heaven Era, humanity had not yet ushered in the Great Evolution, the Void Star Constellation had not awakened, and Martial Arts Cultivate was not the mainstream. Martial Artists were merely divided into External Force Martial Artists, Internal Force Martial Artists, Transformation Force Martial Artists, and so on based on their martial arts techniques... Yet in reality, even Transformation Force Martial Artists, who were hailed as Grandmaster experts, possessed superb martial arts techniques no less inferior to many Earth Martial Artists.
But limited by the environment, when their bodies were tempered to the extreme, their single-arm punch strength was usually only one or two thousand kilograms.
Merely speaking of strength, it was hard to compare to the Intermediate Martial Artist of this era.
Until after the Great Burning Heaven Era.
Especially in the 60 years since the New Calendar Era, martial arts developed rapidly. Under the blessing of the Void Star Constellation, martial arts reached divine realms, and Martial Artists possessed unimaginable martial prowess... Eventually, aiming at Martial Artist strength, the six tiers of Martial Artists were once again unified and re-divided.
Levels 1-9 belonged to the category of ordinary people.
Levels 10-19 were Tier 1 Martial Artists, also known as Elementary Martial Artists, with a minimum punch strength standard of 300 kilograms.
Levels 20-29 were Tier 2 Martial Artists, also known as Intermediate Martial Artists, with a minimum punch strength standard of 2,000 kilograms.
Levels 30-39 were Tier 3 Martial Artists, also known as Senior Martial Artists, with a minimum punch strength standard of 10,000 kilograms.
Levels 40-49 were Tier 4 Martial Artists, respectfully called Earth Martial Artists. The transcendent martial prowess they possessed could no longer be simply described by the amount of punch strength; some heavy thermal weapons had already lost effectiveness against them.
Higher-tier Tier 5 Sky-Patrol Martial Artists and Tier 6 Starry Sky Martial Artists stepped into the mortal world like myths... They were no longer something ordinary people could imagine.
And upon graduation from university, one was only around 22 years old.
Become an Earth Martial Artist?
To college students like Fang Yu, this was simply sheer fantasy... But for Jiang Chenyi, it was possible.
After all, with such rapid punches of his, a single punch could exceed six thousand kilograms. If he went all out, he probably had a punch strength of seven to eight thousand kilograms, which was why Xu Chenyang said he was at least level 25.
"A few days ago, I chatted with the supervisor. Jiang Chenyi seemed to belong to the very average students in Crescent Martial Arts University." Xu Chenyang sighed in a low voice: "I really don't know how strong the top undergraduate students inside Crescent Martial Arts University could be."
"The strongest martial arts university beneath the starry sky is naturally strong." Fang Yu said calmly: "Any casual undergraduate student, if placed in Huguang Martial Arts University, would be an absolute figure of great renown."
Undergraduates and undergraduates also had differences.
The two martial arts universities in Huguang Province recruited ten thousand martial arts undergraduates every year, and Huguang Province was merely one province of the Xia Country.
With a total population of 30 billion on Blue Star and Xia Country's population exceeding 5 billion, the martial arts undergraduates recruited every year on Blue Star alone numbered over one million, which was not considered much compared to the entire population of Blue Star.
As for Crescent Martial Arts University.
It was the absolute number one martial arts university in New Moon and even the entire civilization... It only recruited ten thousand people every year, which sounded like not a few, but you must know that New Moon occupied half the quotas with a population of less than 200 million.
The quota allocated to various countries of Blue Star was only 5,000.
Under normal circumstances, only a little over a thousand people in Xia Country could be admitted to Crescent Martial Arts University every year... Distributed to each province, there were usually only dozens of quotas.
As for Wuling City? It was good if one or two could be admitted every year, and sometimes there were none.
From this, one could know the gold content of Crescent Martial Arts University.
Martial arts geniuses also needed the best environment to bloom with brilliance.
Over the years, martial arts top scorers from various places in Xia Country would try to impact Crescent Martial Arts University, and only secondly choose the other ten key martial arts universities on New Moon.
Finally, they would consider top martial arts universities in Xia Country such as Modu Martial Arts University and Yandu Martial Arts University.
"That's true."
"Most undergraduate students aim to become Senior Martial Artists." Xu Chenyang sighed: "But I heard that if students of Crescent Martial Arts University do not become Earth Martial Artists before the age of 30, they can be considered a disgrace to the school."
"In comparison, we are far too ordinary." Xu Chenyang shook his head.
"There's no need to belittle oneself." Fang Yu patted Xu Chenyang's shoulder and smiled: "Diplomas are made of paper, but skills belong to oneself. Undergraduates are indeed strong, but college students like us are not bad either."
"Don't forget."
"The champion of the most recent Alliance Martial Arts Tournament was a college student from our Xia Country." Fang Yu turned around and continued walking downstairs.
"That's right, Brother Fang, your techniques have reached Micro-consummation, your future martial arts achievements won't necessarily be worse than undergraduates." Xu Chenyang hurriedly turned and chased after him, walking as he said: "Forget about me, I'm just an academic college student, and a humanities student at that. Last time I submitted hundreds of resumes on 91.com, and in the end, the System recommended all sales positions to me..."
"Right."
"Brother Fang, the martial arts tournament you mentioned, is it the Alliance Martial Arts Tournament with a prize of one billion Star Coins?" Xu Chenyang suddenly reacted: "Wang Heng is a college student?"
Alliance Martial Arts Tournament was one of the most dazzling martial arts grand events in the entire civilization.
Xu Chenyang naturally paid attention to it and knew even better who the champion was.
"Mhm."
"Xia Country Martial Artist Wang Heng is the youngest Sky-Patrol Martial Artist in history, and also the publicly recognized — — strongest college student!" Fang Yu had already walked to the first floor.
At a glance.
Fang Yu saw the sentence written on the wall at the end of the first-floor lobby.
"The evolution of civilization is cruel. But even crueler than evolution is refusing to evolve, and life is no exception. — — Ye Xinghe"
