Chapter 24: The Style of an Expert

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the same time, in the entire Haicheng, hundreds of thousands of viewers were watching this live broadcast.

…

In Gao Haoran’s house.

Gao Haoran lived in a single-family villa with a small courtyard.

At this moment, Gao Haoran had just finished his pre-examination special training in the one-on-one tutoring. He was about to turn on the television to relax when he saw Liu Zhonghao in high spirits on the live broadcast.

The more Gao Haoran watched, the angrier he became. He slammed the table.

“Why wasn’t I the one who get’s to flex on TV!”

“Why am I so lousy!”

“One of these days, I’m going to make a name for myself. I’m going to be a showoff like him!”

Gao Haoran’s eyes were red with jealousy.

In the office not far away, Gao Haoran’s father was shaking his head silently.

“Haoran’s talent is still a little lacking! Although he can get into a university, he has no hope of entering a key university!” Mr. Gao had also thought of ways to spend money to send Gao Haoran to a top university, but it was too difficult. “If Haoran’s strength is too weak in the future, I’m afraid he won’t be able to protect my family business!”

As the saying goes, a man’s wealth is his own ruin.

In this world where martial arts reigned supreme, if wealth exceeded the scope of one’s strength, it was very easy to attract calamity.

“Forget it!” Mr. Gao shook his head silently. He had already made up his mind. “If Haoran can’t become a seven-star martial artist, I’ll disperse most of my assets and exchange them for a life of peace for him!”

Gao Haoran had no idea that while he was slamming the table angrily, his father had already planned his life for him.

…

The bald principal of Haicheng Martial High School became angrier as well as he watched the live broadcast.

“It’s rare for Second High to produce a genius, and they’re gloating over that!

The bald principal seemed to have forgotten that when such a genius appeared in their school a few years ago, he was even more arrogant than the principal of Haicheng Second High now.

“Why isn’t such a genius from Haicheng Martial High School?”

“If anyone from our Haicheng Martial Arts High School can snatch the top scorer of the college entrance examination this year, I’ll even kneel down to him!”

The bald principal calculated in his heart and went through all the top students in the third year. He still did not think that anyone could break through to the third rank before the college entrance examination.

In the end, he could only sigh heavily. “It seems that our Haicheng Martial High will definitely be suppressed by Second High this year!”

…

In Yin Jian’s house.

Yin Jian fell to his knees, his fists slamming the floor over and over.

“Why?”

“Why!?”

“Why don’t I have Liu’s talent?”

“I’m already cultivating so desperately! If I had his talent, my mother wouldn’t need to…”

Thinking of this, Yin Jian was even more furious.

Outside the balcony.

Yin Jian’s father wore wire-framed glasses and smoked his cigarettes over and over.

The cigarette butts were already strewn across the floor.

Tonight, only the father and son were at home.

Yin Jian’s mother was no where to be seen.

…

At this moment, Lin Mo had already returned home and saw the news that had already flooded Haicheng City.

“Liu Zhonghao? From Second High? His combat skills have just broken through to the third rank and he has been certified as an official martial artist?”

Lin Mo just glanced at the news and lost interest.

‘Is that all?’

That’s it? Everyone knew about it?

What a mess!

He had just broken through to the third rank. What was the big deal?

‘I’m already mid-stage rank 3. Am I gloating?’

If I stay idle all day tomorrow, I might even be able to idle myself into the peak of rank 3. Did I come out and show off?

“An official martial artist has already shocked the entire Haicheng City to this extent…” Lin Mo felt a little speechless.” When I take the college entrance examination, my punching force can reach at least 1,500 kilograms, or even 2,000 kilograms, and my combat technique can at least reach the fourth rank! They are so shocked by such a small matter now. When I show my strength, won’t Haicheng city blow up? ”

Lin Mo couldn’t help but shake his head. “It’s just a third-tier city in Xia country after all. It’s just a small place in the countryside, unknowing of the vastness of the world!”

Lin Mo took a quick shower and walked into the bedroom to pick up the virtual helmet.

“Let’s go to the Primordial Universe to play!” Lin Mo directly entered the novice training field and clicked to begin matching. “Tonight, let’s get to a twenty-game winning streak!”

Currently, Lin Mo’s punch had already reached 1,150 kilograms.

Although the school holiday tomorrow had greatly limited the growth of his punching force, as long as he could obtain a few more consecutive victories in the novice training field tonight, even if he only relies on the A1-level evolution potions tomorrow, his punching force could reach more than 1,200 kilograms!

In that case, Lin Mo could directly go from a “Martial Arts Apprentice” to an “Official Martial Artist” and even skip the “Quasi Martial Artist” phase.

After a while, Lin Mo matched successfully in the novice training field.

[Black Earth: 18 years old, Martial Arts Apprentice, general appearance. Win streak: 10 rounds.]

[Grand Deity(Shen Hao): 18 years old, official martial artist, general appearance. Win streak: 9 rounds.]

“After winning ten consecutive rounds, although I’m still a martial arts apprentice, I was indeed directly matched with an official martial artist!” Lin Mo had long expected that it would not be so easy to start with an eleven-game winning streak. “Fortunately, I can only match ten rounds a day. Otherwise, if I continued to queue yesterday, my win streak would probably be cut off! But now…”

Yesterday, Lin Mo was only at the peak of rank 2!

But today, he was already at the mid-stage of rank 3!

In a place like the beginner’s test field, where only combat skills and punching force mattered, Lin Mo was still very confident!

“However… today’s first opponent doesn’t seem to be weak?” Lin Mo noticed his opponent’s information. “An official martial artist? And an official martial artist with nine consecutive victories?”

It had to be known that it was not easy for even martial apprentices to obtain nine consecutive victories. It was even harder for quasi-martial artists, let alone official martial artists.

“Could it be that I’ve encountered a tough opponent in my first battle today?” Lin Mo did not flinch. Instead, he was looking forward to it.

Ever since he became idle, he had not met any worthy opponents in the beginner’s test field! If he could meet a few good opponents today and have a good fight, that would be great!

As for losing?

Lin Mo was not very worried!

So what if I lose! It’s not a big deal! It’s not like I can’t afford to lose!

If he lost today, he would rush in with his “Peak Rank 3” combat skills tomorrow. At that time, it would really become a massacre and he would not find a good fight in any other opponent!

Of course, even today, Lin Mo felt that it was unlikely that he would encounter any threatening opponents.

Bang! Bang!

Lin Mo and his opponent both used general appearances.

The two of them landed on the arena almost at the same time.

“Expert!” Lin Mo could sense at a glance that this opponent called “Grand Deity” was definitely an expert!

At this moment, the “Grand Deity” was standing with his hands behind his back. There was an indescribable calmness in his aura. Such is the stance and demeanor of an expert!

“As expected of an official martial artist who can obtain nine consecutive victories! His bearing is indeed extraordinary!” Lin Mo immediately thought even more highly of this opponent.

With no unexpected occurrences, he was definitely an expert!

“Martial arts apprentice?” At this moment, Grand Deity’s surprised voice sounded. “How did I get matched with a martial arts apprentice? Oh… so you won ten consecutive victories. No wonder!”

“Let’s begin?” Lin Mo asked.

“There’s no hurry!” The Grand Deity waved his hand unhurriedly and displayed the demeanor of an expert again. “There aren’t many official martial artists in the novice training field. It’s not easy for a mere martial arts apprentice like you to match me! How about this… I’ll give you three moves!”

“Give me three moves?” Lin Mo was a little shocked by the other party’s expert demeanor.

‘Is he that strong?’

‘You’re going to let me make three moves first?’

“That’s right!” Grand Deity said calmly. “Make any move within three moves! After three moves, it will be time for you to lose!”

“Then… thank you?” Lin Mo thought for a moment. Since the other party was so confident, he wouldn’t stand on ceremony.

After all, the other party had the demeanor of an expert. His strength was definitely not weak!

Moreover, Lin Mo had never fought an official martial artist before. In fact, he wanted to take advantage of these three moves to test the other party’s strength.

I’m just a martial arts apprentice. It’s not embarrassing to be be given three free moves by an official martial artist! Lin Mo thought.
