Chapter 229: 161. The powerful new students of Kyoto University_2

“Li Moyu, fancy a fight?”

The previously silent runner-up from Capital City University, who was referred to as Qin Chuan by the squint-eyed boy, suddenly looked at Li Moyu with a calm face and asked.

Upon hearing this, Li Moyu stopped eating, stood up, and said, “That’s exactly what I want!”

As the loser was seeking humiliation, Li Moyu had no reason to refuse.

He had to stomp on them ruthlessly during the upcoming fight!

Stomp until they were thoroughly convinced, daring not to jump around anymore!

“There’s a martial stage on the playground outside; let’s settle the score there.”

After dropping this remark, Qin Chuan turned and exited the cafeteria, heading towards the martial stage on the playground.

Li Moyu didn’t waste any words and lifted his leg to follow.

“Let’s go, we should head over too.”

Having said that, Luo Yongjian quickly shoved a few mouthfuls of rice into his mouth, then stood up from his seat and, chewing the food in his mouth, walked briskly to catch up.

Seeing this, Ma Xiwei silently stood up and followed.

“Xiao Chen, let’s go as well.”

Seeing that everyone had left, Shen Qinghan turned to Lin Zichen and suggested.

Lin Zichen showed no intention of getting up, continuing to eat at a leisurely pace, and said nonchalantly, “Let’s eat first. If we don’t eat our fill now, we’ll be hungry this afternoon.”

“Oh.”

Shen Qinghan chose to sit and eat obediently, thinking about going to watch the duel with Lin Zichen once he was full.

That was the plan, but she had no appetite.

All her thoughts were outside.

She wanted to go and watch the duel.

In contrast, Lin Zichen had no interest in the mediocre duel taking place outside and just wanted to eat quietly.

However, seeing that Shen Qinghan really wanted to go, he made a show of eating a couple more bites of food. Then, placing his chopsticks down, he said to her, “I’m full. Let’s go and check it out.”

“They didn’t clear their plates. Let’s help clean up before we head over,” Shen Qinghan was very responsible.

Without a word, Lin Zichen helped her collect the dishes from the table, placed them where they belonged, and then they went outside together to watch the duel.

They left the cafeteria.

When they arrived at the playground,

the two found that a considerable crowd had already gathered around to watch the excitement.

Most of them were people who were on their way to the cafeteria.

These people had stopped to watch out of curiosity when they saw a sparring session on their way to lunch, especially when it involved freshmen from two major universities attending a special training.

At that moment, the duel had not yet begun.

In fact, nobody was even on the martial stage.

The two who were about to duel were still discussing the stakes of the contest below the stage.

Since a duel involved winning and losing, there had to be a wager.

Without a bet, victory would be meaningless.

After some discussion.

The two parties finally decided the loser had to call the winner ‘grandpa.’

Having agreed on the stakes of the contest, Li Moyu jumped onto the martial stage first and arrogantly yelled at the runner-up and third-place from Capital City University below, “Both of you come up together, save me the time of beating you one by one!”

“There’s no need for that, Gao Mu alone is enough to crush you,” Qin Chuan said with crossed arms and a detached tone.

The Gao Mu he was talking about was the Capital City University third-place finisher— the squint-eyed boy.

“Heh, him?”

Li Moyu said with a look of contempt and coldly sneered, “I could crush him with a single hand!”

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Gao Mu leapt onto the martial stage, looked at Li Moyu, and said, “You overconfident fool, soon you’ll learn the meaning of humiliation.”

“Cut the crap, let’s fight!”

With that, Li Moyu activated the genes of the Demon Eye Behemoth and the Shadow Night Cat within his body, and as his frame enlarged, a pair of purple beast ears sprouted atop his head.

The Shadow Night Cat gene was one he had integrated last week at home, mainly to compensate for his lack of speed. It was designed for both strength and agility, allowing for comprehensive development.

On the other side, Gao Mu also activated the Exotic Beast Gene that lay dormant within his body.

Suddenly, his skin began to calcify at a speed visible to the naked eye until it turned into extremely hard scales.

Lin Zichen recognized this Exotic Beast Gene merged by the new student from Capital City University.

It was the gene of the Armored Earth Dragon!

This was an earth-type Exotic Beast known for its formidable defenses!

Even a mere Ordinary Ninth Rank Armored Earth Dragon could endure a full-force punch from an Advanced First Rank Demon Eye Behemoth, coming out completely unscathed.

“Bang!”

A crisp collision sound rang out.

On the martial stage, Li Moyu had already started clashing with Gao Mu.

Li Moyu was on the offensive, swinging his fists the size of cooking pots and stretching out legs as rigid as steel pipes, each attack aimed at Gao Mu’s vital points.

Gao Mu was on the defensive, using the scales on his body to resist Li Moyu’s attacks and looking for openings on Li Moyu to counterattack.

The two appeared to be engaged in an intense battle.

“`

“`

But one couldn’t hurt the other, and one couldn’t hit the other.

Neither could gain the upper hand over the other.

“Xiao Chen, these two seem unable to do anything about each other, and it feels like if they keep fighting like this, it will probably end in a draw.”

Having watched the battle for a while, Shen Qinghan, seeing that neither side gained an advantage, spoke to Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen’s face was calm, “This duel won’t end in a draw. The guy from Capital City University named Gao Mu will win.”

“Why do you say that?”

Shen Qinghan turned her head to look at Lin Zichen, asking with some confusion.

She thought the situation on the Martial Stage was a fifty-fifty split and didn’t understand why Lin Zichen was so certain that the person from Capital City University would win.

Lin Zichen leaned in close to her ear and explained softly:

“The person from Capital City University is hiding his skill and hasn’t gone all out. I can sense that there are two types of Exotic Beast Genes in the body of the person from Capital City University and one Exotic Beast Gene hasn’t been activated yet; in contrast, Li Moyu has already given it his all.”

“Is that so?”

Shen Qinghan’s eyes flickered, still very puzzled.

How can you tell who has gone all out and who hasn’t?

Could it be Xiao Chen’s superpower?

Is he able to see other people’s trump cards?

As Shen Qinghan thought this, she quickly focused her attention back on the Martial Stage.

She wanted to see if, as Lin Zichen had said, in the end, it would be the squinty-eyed boy from Capital City University named Gao Mu who would win this duel.

About two minutes later.

The two on the Martial Stage pulled away from each other.

Li Moyu looked at Gao Mu, frowned, and said, “Of all the genes to fuse with, why would you choose the Armored Earth Dragon Gene that can only defend and not attack? You can only hope for a draw by playing turtle, no fun at all.”

“Only defend, not attack? A draw?”

Gao Mu laughed and, with a taunting look in his eyes, said to Li Moyu, “Mr. Top Scholar, what if there’s a possibility that you’ve already used all your strength and I haven’t yet?”

The moment he finished speaking, he activated another Exotic Beast Gene with a thought.

Immediately afterward!

His body began to swell at a visible rate!

Muscles bursting with explosive power rose on his body!

His entire frame increased by half!

It was the Demon-Eye Giant Ape Gene.

This Capital City University freshman named Gao Mu, like Li Moyu, had also fused with the Demon-Eye Giant Ape Gene.

“This can’t be possible!”

Li Moyu couldn’t believe what he was seeing and challenged, “With your talent, how could you possibly succeed in fusing with two different Exotic Beast Genes during your freshman year? Something must be wrong!”

Gao Mu explained, “Li Moyu, it’s true my talent isn’t as good as yours.”

“But!”

“The level of Genetic Fusion technology at Capital City University is far superior to that of Shan University, allowing someone with lesser talent like me to become a second-time Genetic Integrator in the first semester of my freshman year.”

“Betraying Capital City University to enroll at Shan University will be the most wrong decision of your life, without exception.”

Having said that, Gao Mu didn’t waste any more words and immediately took a step like an arrow, violently attacking Li Moyu.

Gao Mu’s attack speed wasn’t fast, and Li Moyu could totally dodge.

But Li Moyu didn’t dodge at all.

In his eyes, Gao Mu had always been a defeated servant.

His pride wouldn’t allow him to dodge an attack from such a person.

He had to meet force with force!

“Bang! Bang! Bang…”

A series of ear-splitting collision sounds erupted.

Li Moyu and Gao Mu exchanged blows wildly, without any intention of dodging from start to finish, always going fist to flesh, competing in strength.

This exchange of blows lasted for half a minute.

In the end, Li Moyu, whose defensive strength was inferior to his opponent’s, was the first to be defeated.

With his fists split open and bones shattered, out of strength, he was knocked out of the Martial Stage by his opponent’s Iron Mountain Lean and regretfully lost the duel.

“Traitor, call me grandfather now!”

Having won the duel, Gao Mu walked to the edge of the Martial Stage and looked down at Li Moyu, shouting from his high position.

Li Moyu wanted to clench his fists in frustration, but the mere attempt brought such pain that he broke into a cold sweat. His fists were shattered, and he couldn’t clench them at all.

If it weren’t for the crowd, he would have cried out in pain long ago.

“Can’t admit defeat?”

Seeing Li Moyu delaying in calling out “grandfather,” Gao Mu’s face was full of contempt.

Li Moyu was prepared to accept his loss.

Grinding his teeth, he endured the humiliation and shouted up to Gao Mu on the stage:

“Grandfather!”

After shouting that “grandfather,”

Li Moyu immediately got up and disappeared into the crowd, not wanting to continue humiliating himself.
