Chapter 57: Freshman Strength Ranking (Part 1)

Yang Guangqing is a person who cares a lot about his reputation. Because of the appearance of Wang Tianyu, Yang Guangqing was unable to get the spot as a seed student.

This was a great humiliation for Yang Guangqing.

Therefore, Yang Guangqing decided to save his face today.

It just so happened that all the freshmen were present today, and Yang Guangqing was ready to declare his strength and excellence to everyone.

Holding the knife in his right hand, Yang Guangqing took a step forward, then swung it casually and made a simple chopped move.

Yang Guangqing's move looks simple, but it actually hides a fierce offensive.

Yang Guangqing's opponent is a boy with a sword.

The boy is quite strong, otherwise he wouldn't have the chance to get to this point.

Yang Guangqing's move blocked all the boys' escape routes.

The boy now has only one choice, which is to pick up a weapon and block Yang Guangqing's knife.

Having made up his mind, the boy held the sword with both hands, then swung it horizontally forward, and used the sword to block Yang Guangqing's downward chopping motion.

"clang!"

The swords collided, making a loud clashing sound.

Although the boy blocked Yang Guangqing's attack, his current condition did not seem to be very good.

Yang Guangqing's knife strike looked casual, but it actually contained tremendous power.

Although the boy with the sword tried his best to resist, he was still knocked back several steps.

"Yang Guangqing will definitely win, the gap in strength is too big!"

"Um."

Wang Tianyu nodded, agreeing with Zhu Sirun's opinion.

In the fight between the two men on the round table, Yang Guangqing had an absolute advantage.

The boy with the sword had already used all his strength, but Yang Guangqing obviously still had a lot of strength left.

Wang Tianyu estimated that Yang Guangqing's victory would depend on just one or two moves.

"clang!"

It was the same chopped move again, and the boy once again blocked Yang Guangqing's attack with his sword.

After blocking this attack, the swordsman's face turned red and his eyes widened.

Not only that, the swordsman's knuckles were broken by the two previous slashes, and blood was oozing out of them.

One can imagine how powerful Yang Guangqing's two strikes were.

The boy with the sword took several steps back and was about to fall off the stage.

At this time, the boy exerted force with his right foot, and with the thrust brought by his right foot, he managed to stop his body.

The boy with the sword was only half a step away from the edge of the table.

At this time, Yang Guangqing raised the long knife in his hand again.

Looking at his broken knuckles, the boy began to think of giving up.

Seeing that Yang Guangqing's next move was about to come, the boy quickly spoke.

"I……"

The boy originally wanted to admit defeat, he knew that he was no match for Yang Guangqing.

If you force yourself to continue fighting, you will most likely be seriously injured.

After all, swords have no eyes, so there is no need to continue to persist .

It was obvious that the boy wanted to admit defeat, and Yang Guangqing also felt it.

Seeing this scene, Yang Guangqing's movements became faster.

Yang Guangqing was not going to let the boy admit defeat, even though he had no grudge against him.

But in addition to getting a spot as a seed student today, Yang Guangqing also wanted to demonstrate his strength and establish his authority.

If the boys gave up like this, then it would obviously not achieve the result Yang Guangqing envisioned.

Seeing Yang Guangqing's sudden acceleration of attack, the swordsman didn't bother to admit defeat and immediately began to resist.

"thump!"

The boy was knocked to the ground by Yang Guangqing's knife.

After the boy fell to the ground, he slid on the ground for a long distance before stopping.

It is conceivable how much force Yang Guangqing used in this knife strike.

"The difference in strength is too big. He can be defeated with just three strikes."

In the first nine matches, the strength of the two sides was similar.

The two opponents will fight for a while before one of them emerges victorious.

But Yang Guangqing actually solved the battle with just the net profit, which surprised many people.

"The one who fell to the ground is from our class. He has already gone through the third tempering of the Flesh Realm. And he was almost done with the third tempering. But now he can't even last three moves. You can imagine how strong the opponent is."

This explanation from the person next to him made everyone think more highly of Yang Guangqing's ability.

Because of talent and resources, it is easy to create a gap in martial arts practice.

The starting point for all new students is the same, one month ago, so everyone starts formal martial arts training together.

But a month later, the gap between the new students who entered school together can be said to be quite large.

Half of the freshmen in Wang Tianyu’s class are still in the first stage of tempering in the flesh realm.

Another group of people have completed the first tempering and are now starting the second tempering.

There are also very few people who are starting to temper for the third time.

The number of such people is extremely small, and among this class of freshmen, there are only two possibilities for those who can start the third tempering.

One is that there is a large amount of resource support. With the support of energy stones and elixirs, this speed is not abnormal.

There is another type, that is, the students themselves are extremely talented, and the school also prefers this type of talented students.

Because once these talented students have the support of resources, their training progress will be even more amazing.

Now, such an elite student who was about to complete his third tempering was knocked to the ground by Yang Guangqing with just three sword strikes.

The most important thing is that Yang Guangqing doesn't look like he has put in much effort.

"Could it be that he has already started the fourth tempering?"

"I estimate that it is more than that. Maybe this is already the fifth tempering."

"Such exaggeration , why don't you say that he has broken through the realm and is now in the Bone Tempering Realm."

Just as the crowd began to analyze Yang Guangqing's strength, another voice sounded nearby.

"Don't make wild guesses. The man on the stage is called Yang Guangqing. He comes from a warrior family. How could such a person break through without a high number of tempering times?"

"No wonder , it turns out he's a member of the family, that makes sense."

"Another one who relied on family resources to get to the top. If only I had so many resources. Humph!"

"Alas, compared to these family members, ordinary people like us have no chance to succeed."

After hearing Yang Guangqing's background, the crowd had more topics to talk about.

Yang Guangqing stood on the round platform, dragging his long sword behind him. Looking at the buzzing discussions in the crowd, Yang Guangqing smiled with satisfaction.

This is the result Yang Guangqing wanted.

"The first step has been completed, so the next step is..."

Yang Guangqing glanced at Wang Tianyu, then jumped off the platform.

Seeing that the selection was completed, Qian Yongjun stood up from his seat.

"Congratulations, from today on, you are the seed students."

He first said something to the 10 winners, and then Qian Yongjun looked at the crowd.

"The number of seed students changes once a month. As long as you practice hard, everyone of you will have a chance ."

After encouraging the others, Qian Yongjun did not announce the end of the event.

Because there is another event to be held today.

"Now that the 20 seeded students have been filled, the freshman strength rankings should appear."

Qian Yongjun has thrown out a new term, which has caused many people to speculate.

"Freshman Strength Ranking? What is this? How come I've never heard of it before?"
