Chapter 177 - Drifting Cloud Martial Arts Hall

Chapter 177: Drifting Cloud Martial Arts Hall

A week later.

Looking at the surging crowd in front of him and then at the huge building cluster hanging at the entrance, Chu Nan had a strange expression.

A week ago, when he learned that Star Cloud Academy had confirmed the opening of the next public recruitment ceremony, he immediately chose to register at the official address of Star Cloud Academy through the Milky Way Network.

The next day, Star Cloud Academy officially announced the recruitment details of the various branches.

Among them, the requirements of the Martial Arts Branch for the students who applied were not complicated. As long as one had a certain martial arts foundation, they could register and participate in the test.

However, this so-called “having a certain martial arts foundation” had detailed requirements.

According to the rules of Star Cloud Academy this year, the examinees who applied for Star Cloud Academy had to participate in the initial evaluation test. Only after passing it would they be qualified to participate in the official entrance test of Star Cloud Academy.

As for this initial assessment, it was not handled by Star Cloud Academy itself. Instead, it was jointly organized by Star Cloud Academy and the Earth Federation’s Martial Artist Union to open a total of 93 assessment points in the 19 inhabited planets of the Earth Federation. All the students who applied for Star Cloud Academy could choose a nearby assessment point to participate in the initial assessment.

Chu Nan checked through the Milky Way Network and discovered that the nearest assessment point was actually the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall!

When he recalled how Uncle Mu Luo had told him that the Xue family was the one presiding over the opening of the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall, and that Xue Zhengming would often appear here, how could Chu Nan’s expression not be strange?

Previously, at the McDao Group’s banquet, Xue Changhao and Xue Zhengming’s father and son had a bad attitude towards Chu Nan and were filled with hostility. In the end, Chu Nan had to run to the Xue family’s territory to participate in an important test. It really made Chu Nan sigh that things were unpredictable.

Although Chu Nan had the intention to spar with Xue Zhengming again when Uncle Mu Luo told him that Xue Zhengming often appeared here and hoped to obtain more understanding of the external martial technique through the observation of the Flowing Cloud Indefinite Palm, that was under normal circumstances.

The initial assessment that Chu Nan needed to participate in had decided that he could take another step forward to participate in the formal entrance examination of Star Cloud Academy. It was very important to him.

If anything happened, he would have to wait another year.

Chu Nan was already 18 years old this year. According to Rengal, he was already an adult and his body was almost completely grown. There was not much time left for him.

“Brother, why do you have such an expression?” Chu Xiaoxi’s voice woke Chu Nan from his thoughts.

Chu Nan shook his head and threw away his distracting thoughts.

Even if the Xue family was filled with hostility and disliked him, they should not have attacked him in public and obstructed him from passing the test.

Moreover, Star Cloud Academy would definitely have detailed requirements for the test. As long as Chu Nan reached these requirements, he did not have to worry.

“Nothing. Let’s go in.”

“Sigh!”

Chu Xiaoxi replied clearly and rushed towards the distant door with an excited expression.

Seeing her jumping around happily, Chu Nan could not help but laugh.

This girl had only practiced martial arts for less than two months and had only cultivated the Nine Revolutions Technique for half a month. When she heard that Chu Nan planned to apply for Star Cloud Academy and head to Sigma City to participate in the initial evaluation, she insisted on following. She said that she wanted to try and pass the test and enter Star Cloud Academy with Chu Nan.

“What a joke.”

Chu Nan shook his head and followed.

“Heh, Brother, hurry up. If you walk so slowly, you won’t be able to catch up!”

Chu Xiaoxi’s crisp and pleasant shout immediately attracted the gazes of the surrounding people.

Although the weather was turning cold and Chu Xiaoxi was not wearing as cold as she had been a few months ago, she was beautiful and had a tall figure. Coupled with the fact that she was only 16 years old and filled with youthful vitality, she naturally attracted everyone’s attention.

Looking in the direction where Chu Xiaoxi waved her hand, the expressions of the surrounding people changed when they saw Chu Nan.

“Eh? That guy seems to be Chu Nan?”

“It’s really him!”

“Is this guy also here to register for Star Cloud Academy? Isn’t he unable to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate?”

“That’s right. Could it be that he doesn’t plan to give up? Didn’t he even announce the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique?”

“That’s right. I thought he did not plan to cultivate anymore. I didn’t expect that he would actually want to apply to Star Cloud Academy now.”

“I didn’t expect him to have such a beautiful sister…”

…

Hearing the discussions of the surrounding people, Chu Nan smiled helplessly.

Although in the minds of ordinary people, the current him was no longer as famous as when he participated in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition and not many people knew about him, he was still quite famous among the martial artists of the Earth Federation, especially among the young martial artists.

The people gathered outside the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall were almost all young martial artists who were prepared to register to participate in the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch Examination. Therefore, it was naturally not strange to recognize him.

However, since these people recognized Chu Nan, they naturally knew some of the most famous things about him, including the evaluation of the two Star-Grade Martial Artists and the fact that he had announced the Wind God’s Forest Crossing Leg Technique on the Milky Way Network half a month ago.

After anyone learned of this, they would feel that Chu Nan had definitely given up on the path of martial arts. Therefore, it was normal for them to be surprised that he would appear at the examination venue.

Chu Nan was already used to such strange gazes from others. However, Chu Xiaoxi’s gaze flickered as she looked at the surrounding situation and was very puzzled.

“Brother, why do they think you won’t come?”

“It’s very simple.” Chu Nan shrugged, “They all think that it’s impossible for me to become a powerful martial artist in the future. Then, why waste your effort? Just give up and be an ordinary person.”

“Tsk, they’re all idiots.” Chu Xiaoxi curled her lips in disdain, “Brother, you’ll definitely be the strongest martial artist in the future. Ignore them.”

Seeing the naive expression on Chu Xiaoxi’s face, Chu Nan laughed.

“Don’t worry, I ignored them in the first place. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come, right?”

Although Chu Nan did not want to pay attention to the surrounding people, it did not mean that no one paid attention to him.

A tall figure walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the two of them.

“You’re Chu Nan?”

Chu Nan raised his head slightly and looked at this guy who was probably nearly two meters tall and extremely burly. He stood there like a small mountain and narrowed his eyes.

“I am. Why?”

Although this person was terrifyingly strong, there was a trace of childishness on his face. From the looks of it, he was probably not even 18 years old.

Hearing Chu Nan’s question, he stretched out a thick finger and pointed at him.

“In the test later, I want to defeat you in front of everyone!”

Chu Nan sighed helplessly.

“Are you guys all bored? I’m here to participate in the test, not to accept the challenge.”

“What? You don’t dare?”

Chu Nan looked at him and smiled.

“Do you think you can defeat Maruk?”

That person’s expression changed slightly.

“I’m only at the initial-stage Internal Breath Realm now. I’m afraid I can’t defeat him…”

“Then you dare to challenge me?”

Chu Nan glared at him as if he was looking at an idiot before turning around to look at his surroundings and raising his voice.

“I know that many people want to become famous by defeating me, but let me give you a piece of advice. If you don’t even have the confidence to defeat that guy, Maruk, don’t waste your time coming to find me.”

After saying that, Chu Nan pulled Chu Xiaoxi who was still in a daze and walked around the burly man.
