Chapter 367: Test
After noon, the first arena of the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch was already filled with students.
Due to the extremely high reward points in this trial, it attracted almost all the new students to participate. In the end, there were a total of 248 students participating in the test.
The academy’s mainframe A.I. finished tabulating the information of these life-saving students in a short period of time and announced the results of the draw.
Regarding this result, some were happy and some were sad.
Just as Chu Nan had said, it was a tragedy for most students to have opponents like Feng Mingxi, Angie Prairie, and Rudy Karl who were extremely famous and powerful among the new students.
As for Mondeo… he happened to be a member of the tragedy.
“About that… my condolences…” Looking at the stunned Mondeo, Chu Nan did not know what to say and could only pat his shoulder to comfort him.
However, Saar patted Mondeo’s shoulder without holding back and laughed, “Serves you right. You were so afraid before, but now, you’ve suffered your retribution, right? Haha, work hard in the losers bracket!”
Even the usually serious Tanaka Iyoko could not help but laugh.
Coincidentally, Mondeo actually drew Feng Mingxi in the first round!
One had to know that a month ago, Feng Mingxi had flown down from the sky in front of them, indicating that he had already broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate and become a Void Break Martial Artist.
Now that a month had passed, his strength would undoubtedly be stronger than before. No matter how hard Mondeo tried, it was impossible for him to be his match.
Therefore, he could be said to have lost this round.
......
“Damn, it’s not fair! Why should I draw Feng Mingxi in the first round?!” Mondeo pulled a long face and cursed angrily, “Why didn’t the three of you draw those powerful ones?”
“Teacher said before that there’s no such thing as fairness in the world of martial artists. If it’s not a test but a life and death battle and you encounter Feng Mingxi, do you have a choice?” Saar sneered and asked.
“Nonsense, who would fight him to the death? Can’t I escape?” Mondeo scratched his head in frustration, “Damn, damn, damn. I have to go to the losers bracket in the first round. If the loser’s bracket also fails, then I won’t be able to enter the trial!”
“Alright, work hard yourself.”
Chu Nan smiled and arrived beside Angie Prairie who was sizing up her surroundings curiously.
“Angie Prairie, don’t go easy on me this time.”
“Go easy? Why should I go easy?” Angie Prairie asked in surprise.
“Because it’s obvious that you didn’t do your best in the entrance examination. I’m worried that you’ll still go easy on me this time.”
“It can’t be said that I didn’t do my best that time. I was just unlucky.” Angie Prairie shook her head, “However, I promise you that I’ll do my best this time and participate in the trial with you. However, Chu Nan, don’t lose carelessly.”
“Heh, how is that possible?” Chu Nan revealed a confident smile, “Unless I encounter Feng Mingxi in the losers bracket, it’s impossible for me to lose.”
“What if you encounter me in the losers bracket?” Angie Prairie asked with a smile.
“What a joke. Will you fall into the loser’s bracket?”
“Then will you?”
Chu Nan could not help but laugh.
With his and Angie Prairie’s strength, only Feng Mingxi could defeat them among these students. If the two of them fell into the losers bracket, it would be considered big news.
After the students clamored for a while, it was soon time for the test to officially begin.
Although this martial arts test was only an internal organization of the Martial Arts Branch, it was very well prepared. In terms of strict rules, it was not inferior to the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition that Chu Nan had participated in. It was even more detailed.
From this, it could be seen that Star Cloud Academy was indeed worthy of being the number one academy in the federation. The Martial Arts Branch was also worthy of the title of “The Cradle of Federation Martial Artists”.
There were a total of five venues in the first arena, so five competitions could begin at the same time.
Because the total number of people registering was as high as 248, the first round of the competition had to be 124 rounds. Even if the five competitions began at the same time, it was estimated that it would take an entire day.
The previous rounds of the competition progressed very quickly. In less than two hours, more than ten rounds had been completed in each of the five venues. The total number of rounds completed had already exceeded half of the first round.
In terms of the results, most competitions were not unexpected.
After all, these new students had already displayed their strength during the entrance examination. After a month, even if they did not know each other well, they were relatively familiar with each other.
Of course, it was not completely impossible.
For example, in the 23rd match, a student ranked 107th in the entrance examination defeated the student ranked 39th in the entrance examination and obtained an unexpected victory, proving that his strength had soared in the past month.
However, this unpopularity did not appear on Mondeo.
He had fought Feng Mingxi in the 36th match. Under everyone’s attention, Feng Mingxi had only used less than two minutes to slap him out of the arena and win.
No one should be surprised by the outcome of this competition.
Feng Mingxi had broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate a month ago and shocked the entire Star Cloud Academy. Everyone knew that he was already a powerful Void Break Martial Artist. Of course, it was impossible for him to lose to an ordinary Internal Breath Martial Artist like Mondeo who was not famous among the new students.
Mondeo had long resigned himself to fate when the result of the draw was out. He was not depressed or unconvinced about losing this round. He only sighed and began to study the opponents he might encounter in the first round of the losers bracket.
As for Saar, who appeared after him, he easily defeated his opponent and entered the second round.
According to the rules, as long as he could win another round, he could lock into the top 50 and obtain the qualifications to head to the trial.
Tanaka Iyoko was ranked very far back and appeared later than Chu Nan.
Like him, Angie Prairie also appeared later than Chu Nan.
When the competition reached the 69th round, it was finally Chu Nan’s turn.
“All the best.” Angie Prairie had been standing beside Chu Nan. When she saw that it was his turn, she smiled and said.
“Sure.”
The opponent Chu Nan ranked 173rd in the first round of the entrance examination. Even if he had improved in the past month, no one thought that he could win against Chu Nan. Therefore, regardless of whether it was Angie Prairie or Mondeo, they all had relaxed expressions.
Chu Nan was also very relaxed, but his opponent had a serious expression and looked a little nervous.
Just as Chu Nan was about to go on stage, a person suddenly rushed in from the entrance of the martial arts arena. It was the teacher who had announced the test to the students in the morning.
Everyone looked at him in surprise, but he directly walked to Chu Nan and shouted with a very serious expression, “Chu Nan, I officially announce to you that you’ve been stripped of your qualifications to participate in this test!”
