The fourth chapter of the Global Human Talent Competition! Chapter 12: Chu Zhou, the 'Knife Tyrant'! A Hundred Billion Dollar Reward!
The preliminary round of the "Global Human Talent Competition" is over.
Chu Zhou woke up quickly.
"Brother, you are so amazing. You actually won first place in the division."
Sister Chu Yu rushed into the room, rushed over, pulled Chu Zhou's sleeve, and in front of Chu Zhou, she opened a forum on her phone and clicked on a post titled "Worship 'Battle King' Chu Zhou, Four Swords Determine the Outcome!"
"Brother, those last four strikes of yours were so domineering. You see, many netizens now call you 'Ba Dao'."
Chu Yu said this with a proud look on her face, and asked Chu Zhou to look at the content of the post.
"Ba Dao?"
Chu Zhou was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that he actually had a nickname.
This nickname seems pretty good.
He looked at the content of the post with interest.
"Strong, strong, strong! Chu Zhou is so strong! It makes my blood boil! At the beginning of the preliminary round, he swept the contestants from the three major families and crushed the ten major controllers. In the end, the four swords decided the outcome! His sword skills are domineering and powerful, and he is invincible. After thinking it over again and again, I think the nickname "Ba Dao" is the most suitable for him. I declare that from today on, "Ba Dao" Chu Zhou is my idol."
"I also watched Chu Zhou's battle video. Just like what the OP said, Chu Zhou is too strong and too abnormal. It makes my scalp tingle."
"Hahaha, I think the three major families, the Chu family, the Jiang family, and the Ling family, are going crazy. The contestants of these three families are too miserable. Not long after the preliminary round began, they were forcefully eliminated by Chu Zhou, leaving no one behind. As a result, after the preliminary round, there was not even a single contestant from the three major families in the top 100 of the third competition area."
"Ahem, I'm from Yuehai Base City, and I'm considered a descendant of a small family. Let me tell you something, the three major families are not going crazy, they've already gone crazy. After the preliminary round, many people heard angry roars coming from the three major families."
"Damn it! I've been watching the battles in Division 1 today. How could such a ruthless person appear in Division 3? No, I have to go back and watch the replay immediately."
"Fuck, I'm from the third division. It's so miserable. I was clearly chasing an awakened person, but suddenly a knife flashed over me. Before I could react, I was killed and eliminated. What kind of thing is this?"
"It's no use for the guy upstairs to react. I'm also from the third division. I've escaped far from the city center, but I was still strangled by Chu Zhou's sword. I can only say that he's too perverted."
…
This post is very popular.
Many people are following the post.
There are more than 30,000 buildings.
Chu Zhou calmly read hundreds of comments and then returned to the forum homepage.
This forum is very lively right now.
Hot posts, one after another.
These posts are all related to the "Global Human Talent Competition".
[Worship the 'Knife Tyrant' Chu Zhou, four swords decide the outcome! ] Although this post is very popular, it is not the most popular one. This post is only ranked third.
The first place is [List of preliminary winners: top 100 in Guangdong and Hai regions! ].
The second one is [ Shocking: Xie Longyuan, the evildoer of the Martial God family, slaughtered 20,000 people in the fifth competition area! ]
Chu Zhou clicked and opened the first post.
Suddenly, a ranking list appeared in front of him.
Explanation of the top of the list: This ranking is based on the official announced points of the 100 contestants who passed the preliminary round in the Guangdong and Hai regions, and does not represent the actual combat effectiveness.
First place: Xie Longyuan, 38,000 points.
Second place: Chu Zhou, 25362 points.
Third place: Li Ge, 20005 points.
Fourth place: Bai Changming, 18,000 points.
Fifth place: Ye Yun, 17036 points.
Sixth place: Luo Yue, 17,000 points.
Seventh place: Yang Zhenzhen, 16,801 points.
Eighth place: Pang He, 15462 points.
Ninth place: Oriental Pearl Tower, 15,396 points.
Tenth place: Gu Xi, 15233 points.
…
Chu Zhou saw his own name on this ranking list, as well as many familiar names.
Chu Zhou didn’t have much thought about the ranking on this list.
Because this is just the preliminary round, many people probably won't try very hard, so a higher or lower score doesn't mean anything.
However, he was still a little surprised when he saw the three words "Xie Longyuan" ranked first.
Because this person was not on the list of ten people Chen Bazhou gave him.
Suddenly, Chu Zhou remembered the second hot post, which was about Xie Longyuan.
So he closed the current post and clicked to open the second hot post.
"My friends, I guess you don't know Xie Longyuan's origins! Let me give you some information. He is from the Xie family, the martial god family of Yuehai Base City. He is a demon that the Xie family has painstakingly cultivated , but he has always followed the Xie family martial god and trained around the world, so not many people know him."
"So he is a monster from the Wushen family. No wonder he is so powerful and has slaughtered more than 20,000 people."
"I thought Chu Zhou, the Tyrant Sword, was crazy enough, but I didn't expect Xie Longyuan to be even crazier."
"After watching Xie Longyuan's battle video, I just want to say that this person is too bloody and cruel. He kills people and then dismembers them. It makes people's scalps numb."
"In this preliminary round, the performances of Chu Zhou and Xie Longyuan were really shocking. Who do you think is stronger between these two?"
"To reply to the above, I think Xie Longyuan is stronger. Although the points in the preliminary round cannot fully represent the strength. But Xie Longyuan has more than 10,000 points than Chu Zhou, which explains a lot of problems."
"As for who is stronger and who is weaker, I think we can only know after a fight."
…
The speeches were all fine at the beginning, but later on, they were basically arguing about who was stronger between Chu Zhou and Xie Longyuan.
Chu Zhou was speechless. He felt that these people were adding fuel to the fire. He and Xie Longyuan didn't even know each other, but these people kept comparing him with Xie Longyuan.
He felt that if Xie Longyuan also saw this post, even though he had no hostility towards him, it would be difficult for him not to want to compete with him.
"Humph, are those who say Xie Longyuan is stronger blind? Didn't they see how powerful your last four strikes were?"
Chu Yu was also reading the post nearby. When he saw someone saying that Chu Zhou was not as good as Xie Longyuan, he immediately became indignant.
In her opinion, her brother is the most powerful.
Chu Zhou heard his sister Chu Yu's muttering, smiled calmly, and opened a battle video of Xie Longyuan in the post to watch.
In the video...
A young man in black, holding a sharp sword, walked on the long street in the drizzle.
Beside him lay a number of mutilated corpses.
The sharp sword in his hand was still dripping with blood.
In front of the young man in black, many warriors were fleeing frantically, shouting "devil" in fear, as if they were extremely afraid of the young man in black.
Suddenly, the young man in black accelerated his body and appeared behind a warrior. The bloody sword in his hand pierced through the warrior's back like lightning.
Then, the young man in black smiled cruelly, swung his sword, and directly cut the pierced warrior into two halves.
Blood like a fountain gushed out from the severed body, spraying all over the young man in black.
But the young man in black didn't care about it at all. There was even a hint of excitement on his face. He stuck out his tongue and licked the blood on his body.
Then, the young man in black chased down the warriors who were fleeing frantically on the long street one by one.
He seemed to treat the warriors on the long street as pig-like prey, and he was the hunter.
There was a crazy and excited light in his eyes, and he seemed to be enjoying the pleasure of killing.
His method of killing was extremely cruel. He basically never used any big moves. All of his attacks were close combat, one sword at a time. Every warrior who died at his hands had a mutilated body, and not a single corpse was complete.
That scene made people feel uncomfortable.
"Brother...is this guy a devil? Not only did he kill people, but his methods were so cruel!"
When Chu Yu saw what was happening, she couldn’t bear to watch any longer and her face turned slightly pale.
"Don't be afraid. No matter how terrifying the devil is, it is nothing in front of your brother."
Chu Zhou stroked his sister's little head with his hand and smiled faintly.
When Chu Yu heard her brother's domineering and confident voice, the fear of Xie Longyuan in her heart slowly disappeared.
yes!
My brother is invincible.
She has her brother with her, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
Chu Zhou closed the webpage, but remembered Xie Longyuan in his heart.
Although I have never met him in person, just by watching the battle video, I can confirm that Xie Longyuan is indeed very strong. To be more precise, he is extremely strong.
An ordinary controller would not be able to defeat Xie Longyuan in one round.
“Interesting!”
The corners of Chu Zhou's mouth curled up slightly, as if he had seen something interesting.
He let his sister Chu Yu go out and play by herself, and he went to the martial arts training hall on the second floor, ready to start practicing.
“Ding ding ding…”
Suddenly, the Oriental Pearl Tower called.
Chu Zhou pointed at his communication watch, and the Oriental Pearl Tower appeared in the air.
"Chu Zhou, do you know Xie Longyuan?" asked Dongfang Mingzhu.
Chu Zhou: "I just learned about this person and watched his battle video... His strength is pretty good!"
“Just not bad?” Dongfang Mingzhu looked at Chu Zhou speechlessly, and then reminded him seriously, “If you meet him in the semi-finals, you must be careful.”
"This man has been following the Xie family's Martial God for many years, training around the world. He has also worked as a mercenary many times and participated in countless large and small battles. He is a terrifying person who truly grew up through killing."
"In the early years, among the younger generation in our Guangdong Base City, only Li Ge from the Li family was more capable than him. But it's hard to say now."
"Don't worry, I will pay attention." Chu Zhou said with a smile, thanking Oriental Pearl for the reminder.
After he finished the call with Oriental Pearl, Yang Zhenzhen also called and also told him to be careful of Xie Longyuan.
Ling Zhan, Shi Meng and Li Qingshi also called.
The three of them talked about their own situations and none of them passed the preliminary round.
This made Chu Zhou feel a little regretful, but he also thought it was very normal.
There are too many strong people in the preliminary round, even the extraordinary ones may not be able to pass the preliminary round, let alone the awakened ones.
Ling Zhan and the other two had just become awakened ones not long ago, so it was normal that they could not pass the preliminary round.
Ling Zhan and the other two also mentioned Xie Longyuan and told Chu Zhou to be careful of this man.
Not long after, Chen Bazhou also called.
Chu Zhou originally thought that Chen Bazhou would also remind him to be careful of Xie Longyuan, but Chen Bazhou told Chu Zhou something else in an extremely serious manner.
"Chu Zhou, a reward is on the line for you!" Chen Bazhou said. He was always dignified and domineering, but at this moment his face seemed slightly distorted, as if he was suppressing his inner anger.
"I've been offered a bounty?"
Chu Zhou was slightly stunned.
"Yes, someone in the underground world has offered a reward of 100 billion for your life. Now the entire underground world is in an uproar."
Chen Bazhou said angrily.
"hiss!"
Chu Zhou took a deep breath when he heard this.
There was actually a bounty of 100 billion on him.
One hundred billion! Such a huge fortune is not a small sum even for a king.
He could fully imagine how crazy those killers in the underground world would be now.
Such a huge bounty is enough for many powerful people to ignore the rules and laws.
"I never thought that my life would be so valuable. I almost wanted to kill myself in exchange for the bounty."
Chu Zhou said self-deprecatingly, with a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes:
"Was it done by the five major families, the Chu family, the Jiang family, the Ling family, the Ernst family, and the Medici family?"
"There is no direct evidence that they did it, but even if there is no evidence, they should have done it."
Chen Bazhou was also very angry when he spoke: "These families are really becoming more and more lawless. They know that you, Chu Zhou, are a genius in our Tomahawk Martial Arts School, but they still dare to do this."
"If we find evidence of their wrongdoing, we will make them pay for it."
Chen Bazhou was full of murderous intent.
I wish I could destroy the five major families directly.
"In any case, the 100 billion reward is too attractive. It is enough to make countless killers and lunatics who are blinded by money take risks. You must be very careful during this period of time. It is best not to leave Longwan Garden."
"I have already reported the situation to the president. I believe the president will arrange for someone to protect you soon."
After Chen Bazhou finished speaking, he ended the call.
"The five major families!"
Chu Zhou's face was as gloomy as water.
Similar to Chen Bazhou's judgment, although there was no direct evidence, he also determined that it was done by the five major families.
Chu Zhou didn't expect that these five families were so cruel that they directly offered a reward of 100 billion for him in the underground world.
The power of one hundred billion is too great.
Even though Chu Zhou was very confident in himself, he had to be careful.
In fact, he was not very worried about his own safety. He was more worried about the safety of his father and sister.
Although Longwan Garden is guarded by military warriors, it is generally very safe.
But if a desperado above the control level breaks in for the bounty, it will be very dangerous for my father and sister.
"Continue to improve your strength. Only when you are strong enough can you deal with all dangers."
Chu Zhou clicked on his communication watch, opened the Warrior Mall, and then spent 400 million to order 40 bottles of advanced gene nutrient solution.
At this moment, there was only 5.4 million left in his account.
Once again returning to the state of "extreme poverty".
Soon, the staff of Warrior Mall delivered 40 bottles of advanced gene nutrient solution to the door.
After Chu Zhou received the goods, he immediately injected all of them into his body.
"Attribute points: 3474.5 (+1890)"
"It's time to continue improving my World-Destroying Sword Skills."
Chu Zhou looked at his current attribute points and decided to upgrade his World-Destroying Sword Skill.
