Chapter 100 First Place in the Martial Arts Competition
"Think about it carefully yourself."
After Chen Lie finished speaking, he ignored Lu Qingchan and turned back to the training ground.
Lu Qingchan then remembered that she had wanted to test Chen Lie's abilities and assess his strength, but before she could make a move, she was suddenly attacked by Chen Lie, and then everything went black.
"What is this? I haven't even had a chance to test his strength, and I'm already out?"
Lu Qingchan felt something was off. Was it that her strength was indeed inferior to Chen Lie's, or that she had been careless just now?
At the same time, the school's loudspeaker announced: "Students, the finalists for this martial arts competition have been selected."
One was Zhou Tianhong from Elite Class 1, and the other was Chen Lie from Elite Class 5, both winners of the martial arts competition.
It will be one of the two of them.
"The final competition is about to begin. Please have the two students come to the stage immediately."
Chen Lie walked straight onto the training ground.
On the other side, Zhou Tianhong leisurely walked onto the training ground.
He stopped ten meters away from Chen Lie.
Zhou Tianhong, who was watching from below the stage, clearly saw Chen Lie's move. Under Chen Lie's preemptive strike, Lu Qingchan, who was ranked second on the Elite Hundred Ranking, didn't even have a chance to react before being knocked unconscious.
Zhou Tianhong figured he might not be able to handle Chen Lie's move either, so he stopped ten meters away from Chen Lie.
With such a long distance, he wouldn't be eliminated before he even had a chance to make a move.
"Please have the provincial TV station's cameras focus on Chen Lie and Zhou Tianhong during the finals."
The two students exchanged information.
Upon hearing the broadcast, Chen Lie immediately said, "Chen Lie, your Qi and Blood value is 142.31 calories."
"Zhou Tianhong, Qi and Blood Value: 327.49 kcal".
Zhou Tianhong got into battle stance, and he did not underestimate Chen Lie just because Chen Lie's health was half that of him.
Those who make it to the finals cannot do so by luck alone; they must defeat at least two students with over 200 HP each to reach this stage.
The school's loudspeaker announced, "The martial arts competition begins!"
Zhou Tianhong leaped up instantly, his iron fists slamming towards Chen Lie.
Knowing that he shouldn't confront them head-on, Chen Lie retreated quickly.
As a result, Zhou Tianhong's settlement landed on the ground of the training ground, causing the solid concrete floor to crack instantly, forming a spider web-shaped crack on the surface.
Zhou Tianhong missed his first strike, then followed up with a sweeping leg kick.
Chen Lie used Zhou Tianhong's force against him, instead of directly confronting him with strength, he used an elbow strike to deflect Zhou Tianhong's attack.
"Take a look at my palm!"
After Zhou Tianhong stopped using his leg techniques, he began to unleash a series of palm strikes on Chen Lie.
In an instant, Zhou Tianhong struck Chen Lie with dozens of palms. Due to the fierce and rapid nature of Zhou Tianhong's palm strikes, Chen Lie had no way to dodge and could only use the technique of using minimal force to deflect Zhou Tianhong's palm force.
One minute into the battle, the scene of the two fighters' combat drew admiration from the instructors in front of the training ground.
"It's hard to imagine that two students are fighting on the dueling platform, and they are almost as strong as entry-level martial artists."
"Both of these people on the stage are geniuses, and they are naturally no less than ordinary martial artists. However, what is the background of this Chen Lie? He suddenly appeared in this martial arts competition. How come I have never heard of him before?"
"Old Hong, you have such a genius hidden in your elite Class 5, how come I've never heard you mention it before?"
Hong Chengshuo, who was standing next to him, chuckled but didn't reply.
He was also very shocked. He had only hoped that Chen Lie would be among the top 50 in the martial arts competition, but Chen Lie had actually made it to the finals.
This made even him, the tutor of the elite Class 5, feel a sense of unreality.
"However, Zhou Tianhong's strength far surpasses Chen Lie's. In just half a minute, Zhou Tianhong unleashed three C-level martial arts techniques: the Breaking Army Fist, the Flying Dragon Leg, and an unknown palm technique."
Although Chen Lie dealt with all of them, it would be extremely difficult for him to win.
On the training ground, Zhou Tianhong was panting heavily; the series of attacks he had just launched had exhausted a great deal of his strength.
He stared at Chen Lie and said, "I didn't expect there to be a strong person like you in the school. My Qi and Blood value is twice that of yours, but I still can't do anything to you."
You have a wealth of combat experience, but the gap in strength between us is too great to be bridged by mere combat experience.
Just then, three days ago I mastered a B-rank martial art to perfection. I'll test its power on you.
"Swimming Dragon Eight-Fist Fist!"
Zhou Tianhong swung his fist, and as he did so, he created a whooshing sound around him, sending dozens of invisible fist energies crashing down on Chen Lie.
This martial art combines movement techniques and fist techniques, making it both offensive and agile. Moreover, Zhou Tianhong has mastered it to perfection, with dozens of fist shadows appearing out of thin air.
The instructors in front of the training ground exclaimed, "Zhou Tianhong has actually mastered a B-level martial art to perfection? The competition is about to begin, and Chen Lie is destined to lose."
The other instructors were also shocked. To have mastered a B-level martial art to such a high level was something many instructors couldn't do.
The students watching from the sidelines were also watching this scene intently.
Faced with Zhou Tianhong's powerful punch, Chen Lie shifted his stance and unleashed a top-tier B-level martial art he had cultivated in his previous life: the Phantom Step.
Suddenly, Zhou Tianhong, who was swinging his fist, felt a blur before his eyes. In an instant, he saw hundreds of Chen Lies spread across the entire training ground.
As soon as Chen Lie unleashed his Phantom Step, hundreds of phantoms instantly appeared, spinning around the training ground.
Some students standing nearby below the training ground were stunned into silence: "Holy crap, what's going on? Amazing!"
The teachers in front of the training ground also stood up excitedly.
"This is at least a pseudo-A-rank martial art, and it is a pseudo-A-rank martial art that has been cultivated to a superb level!"
Who is this Chen Lie? How did he manage to cultivate a high-level martial art to such a superb level?
On the training ground, Zhou Tianhong roared and attacked a phantom Chen Lie with a punch, but the phantom he attacked instantly vanished.
Zhou Tianhong was immediately sweating profusely with anxiety, looking around to find Chen Lie's true form.
Suddenly, a loud "bang" rang out.
Zhou Tianhong's vision went black, and he collapsed to the ground.
Chen Lie's true form had somehow appeared behind Zhou Tianhong and delivered a heavy elbow strike to his neck.
After Zhou Tianhong was knocked down, the hundreds of phantoms on the training ground suddenly stopped moving and walked towards Chen Lie, merging with Chen Lie's real body one by one.
At this moment, the training ground was completely silent, and all the teachers and students were stunned.
After a long while, the broadcast sounded again: "The final is over. Chen Lie defeated Zhou Tianhong and became the first place winner of this martial arts competition."
"Classmates, let's give a warm round of applause to Chen Lie to congratulate him on winning first place in the campus martial arts competition!"
In an instant, a deafening wave of applause swept in.
"Incredible skill, simply incredible skill! I never imagined that someone could cultivate martial arts to this level. Zhou Tianhong's defeat was not unjust."
"The school's martial arts competition champion and the top spot on the list of the top 100 elite students have changed hands. Zhou Tianhong, who had held the top spot on the list of the top 100 elite students for nearly a year, has been defeated."
Chen Lie has become the biggest dark horse in this competition.
"Can someone explain to me what just happened? Why did dozens or even hundreds of Chen Lie's phantom images suddenly appear?"
On one side of the training ground, Lu Qingchan covered her mouth with her small hand in surprise.
She had originally wanted to assess Chen Lie's strength, but she never expected that even Zhou Tianhong, whose Qi and Blood value exceeded 300 calories, was no match for Chen Lie, so she was definitely not qualified.
"How did Chen Lie's strength suddenly become so strong?"
Could it be because I became a Divine Sense Master?
She was very puzzled.
Suddenly, the loudspeaker blared again: "Next, please welcome today's martial arts champion, Chen Lie, to the stage in front of the training ground."
Upon hearing the broadcast, Chen Lie immediately turned and walked towards the podium.
In the office next to the stage in the square, the instructor who was hosting the martial arts competition hurriedly walked in.
"Principal, Director Li, the results of the martial arts competition are in. Chen Lie from Elite Class 5 has won first place."
"We saw it!"
The principal responded and urged the school staff, "Quickly find Chen Lie's student file."
It is essential to have detailed information about him from his first year of high school to the present.
"The school has such a martial arts prodigy, yet we failed to discover it; this is truly our dereliction of duty."
The staff member immediately retrieved Chen Lie's student file from the personal terminal and replied, "Principal, found it."
The principal urged hastily, "Print it out quickly!"
"Principal, there's no need to print it. Chen Lie's student file is very short."
It was only a few dozen words.
"A few dozen words? How is that possible?"
The principal and the dean of students immediately gathered around and, sure enough, saw very brief file information.
"I studied in the regular class for almost three years, and only recently joined the elite class."
No wonder, he's been hiding his true strength all along.
Chen Lie stepped onto the podium, and five or six cameras were simultaneously pointed at him.
A beautiful reporter in her early twenties approached Chen Lie with a microphone in hand: "Hello, Chen Lie, I am a reporter from Dongchuan Provincial Television Station."
First of all, congratulations on winning first place in this campus martial arts competition.
As the top student, what would you like to say to your classmates?
Chen Lie shook his head: "No!"
The reporter chuckled awkwardly, "Chen Lie, my interview with you will be broadcast on the provincial TV station's prime-time martial arts drama slot in a week. You can think about it before you answer."
"It's unnecessary, I don't want to be on TV," Chen Lie replied.
The beautiful reporter covered her forehead with a hint of helplessness, then smiled at the camera and said, "It seems that our martial arts genius is so engrossed in martial arts that he doesn't care about his own glory at all."
In the realm of martial arts, this is indeed a rare and valuable quality.
"How about this, Chen Lie, why don't you give a word of encouragement to the tens of millions of teenagers your age in Dongchuan Province?" the reporter then asked.
