Chapter 38: Preliminary Round

Three days later.

The eastern suburbs of Nishinonome City have become more lively than ever.

Since last year, it has been carrying out publicity and planning, and the Xiyun Star Martial Arts Tournament, which finally officially started today, not only attracted the martial artists on the entire Xiyun Star, but also attracted other martial artists from several surrounding administrative systems, as well as martial artists from many surrounding countries and regions.

The total number of martial artists participating in the competition alone is reported to have exceeded 30,000, and the spectators who came to watch the competition have roughly estimated that it has exceeded more than 200,000, which is really an extremely rare large-scale event in Xiyunxing in the past ten years.

The Xiyunxing government attaches great importance to this martial arts tournament, and this time it has mobilized an incomparably large amount of resources, and even applied to the federal government for administrative support, just to ensure the smooth progress and successful conclusion of this tournament.

You must know that Xiyunxing actually invited two star-level martial artists in one go this time, among which Norman Li was even invited from the Fraser Dominion, and the price paid can be imagined.

It is precisely because of the appearance of these two star-level martial artists that so many martial artists will sign up for this martial arts competition.

In addition to the high prizes provided by the Xiyun Star government, striving to attract the attention of the two star-level martial artists is what many participating martial artists dream of.

"Even if Venerable Mu Yutong won't accept me as a disciple, it's good to be able to take a fancy to me and give me a few words of advice."

As soon as he got out of the car, Afashenko, another second-year student of Xiyun Academy who was walking beside Chu Nan, glanced at the current bustling crowd and couldn't help but sigh.

Chu Nan glanced at him, thinking that he had already been sentenced to death by Mu Yutong, but he didn't need to have unrealistic illusions like Afashenko.

However, this time to participate in the martial arts competition, he still has a clear pursuit.

In front of Zheng Yuanlin, he swore that he wanted to win the championship of the group he belonged to, so that Mu Yutong would recommend him to the qualifications to enter the Nebula Academy.

In addition, according to the rules of this event, if he can win the championship of the martial arts group under the age of 20 to which he belongs, he will receive a full prize of 300,000 federal coins issued by the Xiyun Star government!

That alone is enough for him to try to win the championship.

You must know that his parents are just a pair of ordinary farmers on Ziyun Star, and the combined income from a year's hard farming is less than 300,000 federal coins.

If you can win the championship and get this bonus, it will undoubtedly make it much easier for parents.

Of course, it's not that easy to win the championship.

According to reports, the total number of martial artists participating in the martial arts competition this time exceeded 30,000, and because of the news revealed by Venerable Mu Yutong before, there were even more young martial artists participating in the group competition under the age of 20, even close to half, that is, more than 10,000 people.

This point was fully verified after Chu Nan signed up for the under-20 group competition and found that the game number he got was actually 12333.

“12333? It's a shame that we're not in the same district and can't let you get a taste of my fist sooner. A voice full of resentment sounded beside Chu Nan.

Chu Nan turned his head and looked directly at the same resentful eyes of the person in front of him, his gaze deliberately swept towards the other party's lower body, and smiled slightly.

"What? Luo Li, you've only been around for less than two days, and you want to be abolished again? ”

Luo Li involuntarily clamped his legs, then snorted again, quickly let go, and stared at Chu Nan.

"Don't get too complacent, boy. I'll admit that I underestimated the enemy last time, but now that I'm serious, you just wait to escape! ”

After saying that, Luo Li's gaze also swept over Chu Nan's lower body, let out a sneer, and turned around and left.

Seeing him walk away, Afashenko, who had been watching the play next to him, snorted coldly and said with a dissatisfied face: "What qualifications does this kid have to be arrogant?" If it weren't for the backstage of the Luo family, he wouldn't even be qualified to participate in the change competition. ”

Luo Li was directly killed by Chu Nan in the first round of the qualifying round, so he was disqualified.

If it was an ordinary student, he obviously couldn't represent Xiyun Academy in this martial arts tournament.

However, Luo Li completely healed his injury in just a few days, and won the special recommendation given by Xiyun Academy to participate in the competition.

All this, of course, is because behind him stands the Luo family, a behemoth on the Xiyun Star.

Compared with a guy from a martial arts family like Luo Li, Chu Nan and Alfashenko, two ordinary students, are undoubtedly far behind in this regard.

In order to prepare for this martial arts tournament, the Xiyun Star government opened up an additional thousand temporary fighting arenas in the eastern suburbs of Xiyun City.

Most of these arenas are actually very simple, just an ordinary venue, and there are no other ancillary facilities, not even special spectator seats.

Among them, only a total of fifteen fighting arenas are full-sized fighting arenas, but they are all arranged in the more high-profile competitions, and among the contestants are the warriors who are already famous in the West Cloud Star or the surrounding galaxy.

Chu Nan is obviously not among them.

After signing up, he was quickly placed in the first round.

Because he participated in the competition in the under-20 group, Chu Nan was only assigned to an opponent who was a teenager.

When he first came on the field, the young warrior with the 10389 race number on his back was still a little nervous.

But after taking a serious look at Chu Nan, he suddenly laughed proudly.

"Ha, Xiyun Academy is really not as good as a year after year, and even a guy like you, who is a rookie at first glance, can be sent out as a student representative. Look at you, you got the referral quota through the back door, right? Didn't the adults in your family tell you that martial arts fights can hurt? ”

With that, he burst out laughing wildly, looking contemptuous.

Chu Nan couldn't help but shake his head.

Among the second-year representatives, only Luo Li is the one who can really come to the competition through the back door.

However, Luo Li is a real fifth-order hegemon-level martial artist, how can he be so easy to deal with.

He didn't bother to talk nonsense with the other party at all, and turned his head to look at the referee.

The referee looked down at the time and confirmed that it was time for the first round of the under-20 category of the Martial Arts Championship to start at the same time, so he signaled to the two at the same time.

"Boy, go back to feeding!"

The opponent grinned, stepped his feet, and rushed towards Chu Nan with an arrow step.

Seeing his movements, Chu Nan frowned slightly.

This guy has loose movements and full of mistakes and omissions, not to mention that he can be almost flawless like Chu Nan, and he can also exert his own nearly 100% physical strength, which is not much stronger than ordinary people who don't practice martial arts.

At this level, dare to sign up for the Warrior Championship?

Seeing that the opponent was about to pounce in front of him, Chu Nan staggered slightly and flew up.

"Ahh

The opponent let out an earth-shattering scream, and he fell to the ground like a stake, his hands covering his lower body, and his face curled up in pain.

Chu Nan squatted down expressionlessly, picked up the opponent's back collar, dragged him to the edge of the field, and threw him out.

The referee and a few scattered spectators around looked at Chu Nan in amazement, and they didn't react for a while.

It wasn't until Chu Nan reminded him that the referee swallowed hard and spit, raised his hands and announced.

"Competition...... Over, winner ......" At this point, the referee lowered his head and confirmed the matchup table in his hand. "Contestant No. 12333, Chu Nan."
