Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 448: Snatching The Championship (3)

Chapter 448: Snatching The Championship (3)

The tournament progressed. Third round, fourth round, fifth round...

Su Yu had advanced through all the rounds without fighting a single match. He had easily reached the top 20. He had advanced so easily that it was almost unbelievable. Nobody dared to even face him in a fight. Apart from him, people like Zhan Hai had also enjoyed a similarly smooth and unchallenged advancement.

The gap between the stronger and weaker students was too big. Prior to this, some people might still not be aware of the big gap between some students. But after Su Yu defeated Li Shiyun's team and after Zhan Hai easily defeated a bunch of old students, everyone finally understood how big the gap between them was.

The students of this generation were too strong. The old students who had failed to reach the Skysoar Realm before 30 were simply not their match. In the sixth round, Su Yu drew for an opponent as usual. But the result surprised him.

He had drawn Wu Jia's team. They had actually reached the top 20 as well. Li Minyu was the strongest in that team. She occupied the fourth place in the top 100. There were also Wu Jia and Lin Qing in the team. Both of them were also top 100 students.

Li Minyu first looked at Su Yu before looking at Wu Jia. With a smile, she said, "Looks like we won't be able to advance into the top 10. I really want to fight you, but I'm afraid that your senior sister might side with you. That would make the match pointless."

As someone near the Skysoar Realm, she was actually quite interested in fighting Su Yu at least once. But today was not the time for it.

"Are you not going to give it a try?"

Su Yu smiled, "Maybe it's worth trying? After all, I have four deadweights with me..."

Li Minyu smiled, "Forget it. I'll give Zhan Hai this chance. I hope you won't meet each other too soon. I would rather see the two of you meet at the final round. That would be a lot more interesting."

Su Yu smiled, "Regardless of the time we encounter each other, the match between us will be the final match."

That was a simple yet domineering declaration. The match between them would be the final match regardless of time. Basically, after defeating Zhan Hai, the victory was already his. Not one of the other teams would be able to pose a threat to him.

As the number one student, Zhan Hai was no pushover. Even those old students who were said to be as strong as Zhan Hai actually looked quite weak when Su Yu was finally looking at them. Earlier, Zhan Hai had even encountered one such team. And he had been able to obtain an easy victory.

Li Minyu said, "That might not be the case. Look, there's a myriad race team here. Have you noticed them?"

"Yeah."

Su Yu nodded and flashed the team of cloaked and masked students a gentle smile. Myriad race team. This was a unique team filled with myriad race students. They had probably been given special permission to form a team between themselves.

Their actual strength was still unknown. In any case, they had easily reached the top 20 without even using all their strength. Su Yu was actually quite interested in testing them out. Unfortunately, he had yet to encounter them in the tournament. With Li Minyu's surrender, Su Yu reached the top 10.

...

Before long, the other matches came to an end as well. The teams of Zhan Hai, Jiang Mu, and the myriad race students had all advanced into the top 10. Apart from these three teams and Su Yu's team, the other six teams were also decently powerful. All of them were filled with students near the Skysoar Realm.

Suddenly, Zhan Hai said, "Su Yu, it is too boring to keep fighting one round after another like this. Why don't we split the remaining eight teams between the two of us. Let's see who can smash through four teams first."

Zhan Hai was still as arrogant as ever. He was starting to get bored with this tournament. In fact, he had been wanting to fight Su Yu for quite a while. But he also didn't want to give others the chance to take advantage of him. That was why he was making this proposal.

Zhan Hai looked at Liu Hong and asked, "Teacher Liu, will that be acceptable?"

Liu Hong narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhan Hai before looking at Su Yu.

After looking at the other teams as well, he smiled, "The number one student is still as confident as always. Zhan Hai, are you sure?"

Zhan Hai said, "If Su Yu is fine with it, I'll be fine. As for the others...this is a chance for them. Are they going to let go of this chance? They will get the chance to force us into four consecutive matches. If they don't even dare to accept a challenge like this, they should just withdraw right now since they will never be able to get first place."

Su Yu said, "I don't mind. This is a great idea since we can save some time. Just look at the time. It's getting late. I still need to go back and study after this. I have yet to finish my homework for the day."

Both of them were similarly arrogant.

A small clamor erupted from the remaining teams. Before long, a sullen voice rang out, "Since both of you have agreed, we will naturally agree as well. As for the sequence in which we fight..."

Before he could finish, Zhan Hai indifferently said, "You guys are free to decide on the sequence. I won't need to spare too much energy on you guys either way."

"..."

Something seemed odd about Zhan Hai today. He had never been so domineering before.

Suddenly, Jiang Mu looked at Zhan Hai and nodded with a sigh, "Sure."

Jiang Mu had realized something. Zhan Hai was preparing to advance into the next realm. He wanted to kick everyone out of the tournament before using his fight with Su Yu to attempt his breakthrough.

This fellow did not want to compete against Su Yu in the top 100 anymore. If Jiang Mu himself was in the same position...perhaps he would also do the same.

He sighed inwardly. He had never ascended to the first place before. With Zhan Hai's departure from the ranking, he was supposed to get a chance to snatch the top position. But with Su Yu's appearance, he wasn't so sure anymore.

After giving Zhan Hai a look, Liu Hong nodded, "Sure. Zhan Hai, the restriction preventing Skysoars from bullying those in the Mental Tempering Stage won't apply for someone breaking through in the middle of the battle. Good luck with your advancement."

Zhan Hai ignored Liu Hong. His focus was only on Su Yu.

Su Yu had also guessed Zhan Hai's goal. He merely smiled and said nothing. Using him as the grindstone to push for an advancement? Too bad. Zhan Hai would need to get through Zhou Hao first. Otherwise, Su Yu wouldn't even waste his time fighting Zhan Hai. It was pointless.

...

The tournament continued. There was no denying that each of the top 10 teams was very strong. In fact, the first team Su Yu encountered was about as strong as the single character faction team he had fought before. This team did not concede upon facing him.

But since Su Yu had been able to easily defeat the previous team, he was naturally able to do the same to this team. After around one minute, the match ended. The second match started immediately.

This time, he faced Jiang Mu's team. Su Yu had a rather deep impression on Jiang Mu as this was the first top 100 student he had seen after entering the academy. This was a student who had caused even a seventh-stage Infinite Strength expert to move aside.

Sure, that level of cultivation was nothing for the current Su Yu. But back then, someone like that was already a super expert for him. Instead of letting his team members fight, Jiang Mu decided to face Su Yu alone.

Jing Mu was a strong opponent. He also had second-tier characters in his possession. The fight lasted around three minutes before Su Yu obtained victory through the Crushing Mountainsea move.

After confirming his defeat, Jiang Mu left the ring instead of insisting on wasting more of Su Yu's strength. It was pointless.

He had already verified that he was indeed slightly weaker than Su Yu. If he continued fighting, he might be able to cause Su Yu some serious injuries, but he was more interested in seeing Su Yu's fight with Zhan Hai.

Su Yu was very interested in fighting the myriad race students. Unfortunately, that team had been assigned to Zhan Hai's team instead. The following two teams he faced were also quite strong, but they weren't so strong that he couldn't easily defeat them.

...

While Su Yu was easily defeating one opponent after another, Zhan Hai was doing the same. After telling his team members to stand aside, he defeated four teams all by himself.

When Su Yu finally found some time to look over, he was greeted with the sight of Zhan Hai sending a masked student flying away with a punch.

Looking at the myriad race students, Zhan Hai coldly said, "It is pointless if you're going to fight while hiding your strength. If you're unwilling to do your best, why join a tournament like this?"

One of the myriad race students said, "Senior Brother Zhan is too strong. Even if we fight in our true forms, we might not be able to win. Student Su is quite strong as well. And he is still in a good condition. I am more interested to see the two of you face each other in peak condition."

Zhan Hai snorted coldly. He disliked these myriad race students. He could sense that these students were actually quite strong. But not one of them had used their true strength. They hadn't even used their racial abilities. He didn't even have the interest to say more to such individuals.

Looking at Su Yu, he said, "Why don't we make it a fight between the two of us? There is no need for our team members to participate."

Su Yu smiled, "Forget it. Your team members have reached this far with great difficulty. Telling them to stand down at this point is too disrespectful. Senior Brother Zhan, this is not a top 100 match. This is a tournament."

At those words, the look in the eyes of Zhan Hai's team members changed. They all looked at Su Yu with gratitude. Yeah! This was not a top 100 fight. This was not a one on one fight. This was a fight for the grotto slots. Since they could fight him five against one, why must they pick the stupid choice of fighting one against one?

Zhan Hai did not care about the slots, but that wasn't the case for them. As for the fact that they were bullying Su Yu with their numbers, what could they do if the rules allowed it? It wasn't their fault Su Yu's team members were unwilling to help.

Zhan Hai could always go back to the top 100 ring if he wanted to have a one on one fight that much.

The look in their eyes changed when they were looking at Su Yu. He was such a good man! Junior Brother Su was such a considerate person!

Inwardly, Su Yu was laughing. What a pity. The four of them better be ready to have their asses kicked by him. Their strength...really wasn't anything special.

At that thought, he glanced at Zhou Hao. Zhan Hai would be left to Zhou Hao. This fellow had been standing around for an entire day. It was time for him to do his part.

Zhou Hao said nothing. He was greatly looking forward to the fight. He was the type of person who enjoyed taking what he wanted with his own two hands.

Zhan Hai...a student near the Skysoar Realm. This was an extremely strong student. But he wasn't scared of such an opponent!
