Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 192: Too Many Idiots (1)

Su Yu\'s declaration resounded throughout the area.

A seventh-stage Great Strength cultivator. A middle Mental Tempering Stage cultivator. Someone with the potential to enter the Top 100 Ranking. Chen Qi. He had been defeated by a single move. It happened instantly. Not a single person had expected that.

Nobody had imagined that Su Yu would win so easily. Everyone\'s gaze landed on Lin Yao. He had a dazed look on his pale face. Would Su Yu need to use tricks against him? A Su Yu powerful enough to defeat Chen Qi with one move needed to use tricks against Lin Yao who had just reached the Great Strength Realm?

Su Yu drugged Lin Yao? Who would believe that? Nobody! This whole thing was an act by Lin Yao himself. He was a clown. How ridiculous.

Su Yu did not need any other proof. His strength was the strongest proof. He could defeat someone like Lin Yao with a flick of his finger.

After a momentary silence, the intermediate class students roared, "Long live Class Monitor!"

"Our class monitor is amazing!"

"Class Monitor!"

Excitement. Exhilaration.

The students couldn\'t keep calm. Just a moment ago, some of them were starting to wonder if Su Yu was really the one who had drugged Lin Yao. All their doubt on him vanished. Someone capable of defeating Chen Qi with one move was beneath using tricks against Lin Yao. That would only dirty his hands.

Like Su Yu said, Lin Yao was merely a worthless dog. Was there a need for trickeries against such an opponent?

...

Outside the ring.

This year\'s freaks were all looking at Su Yu with solemn expressions. Some of the previous batch students who were here for fun also had heavy expressions. Even some of the top 100 students had intense expressions..

Somewhere in the crowd.

Wu Lan\'s mouth was wide agape. Her usual prideful expression was gone as she muttered in disbelief, "He...defeated Chen Qi?"

Even if she looked down on Chen Qi, she still knew that she wasn\'t Chen Qi\'s match for now. But that same Chen Qi had been defeated by Su Yu with one move.

Lin Qing, who was here accompanying her, stood beside her with a solemn expression. She said, "For a moment, he had unleashed the strength of an Infinite Strength cultivator. He seemed to have swallowed some blood essence to do that. He personally doesn\'t have that level of strength. However, he\'s still a third-stage Great Strength cultivator. Lan, what was his strength back when you saw him in Nanyuan?"

"He was a fresh ninth-stage Source Opening cultivator..."

"He’s growing so quickly?" Lin Qing was astonished. "He opened 36 acupoints in only 2 months?"

Su Yu had entered the ninth-stage Source Opening Realm on the 25th of June. That signified that Su Yu had opened 36 acupoints in the past 2 months. On average, he had opened an acupoint every 2 days or so.

As for Lin Qing herself, she was a seventh-stage Great Strength cultivator. She was also at the peak of the Mental Tempering Stage with 90 percent willpower. In terms of physical cultivation, she had opened 48 more acupoints than Su Yu.

But with Su Yu\'s speed, he would be able to catch up to her in around three months. As for his willpower cultivation, it seemed to be growing at an even more terrifying speed.

...

"Xia Chan, this fellow...seems to be a terrifying opponent."

Somewhere else near the ring, the freaks were also in shock.

Wan Mingze asked, "Xia Chan, do you have the confidence to defeat him?"

Xia Chan frowned as she sank into thought. After a while, she said, "If this is all he can do, I won\'t know before truly facing him in a fight."

She calmly asked, "How about you?"

Wan Mingze smiled, "That burst of strength after consuming blood essence is probably related to the multiple character faction\'s research. He naturally isn\'t my match without blood essence. With blood essence, it would depend on how long his burst of strength can last. If he can keep attacking for a long time, I might not be able to last all the way until the end."

In other words, he was confident he could win in the end if Su Yu\'s burst of strength couldn\'t last long. This was his confidence as a freak. The act of defeating Chen Qi was nothing special.

After saying that, Wan MIngze\'s gaze landed on Lin Yao. He smiled and said, "At least this idiot did one good thing. Without him, Su Yu would probably still be hiding his strength."

Lin Yao was simply no match for Su Yu. Thus, without the accusation, Su Yu might still be able to keep his strength hidden.

In truth, according to Su Yu\'s original plan, he wouldn\'t reveal too much during his fight with Lin Yao even if he didn\'t intend to appear too weak. After all, he was afraid that he would scare Chen Qi off.

But after a twist, Chen Qi became his first opponent. Due to the anger that had been brewing in his heart, he held nothing back against Chen Qi.

…

Further away from the ring, Jia Mingzhen and the other elderly genius students were also spectating the match. However, their focus wasn\'t on the result of the match. Rather, it was on that drop of blood essence.

Jia Mingzhen frowned and said, "Has the Wentan Research Center completed the blood essence ability research? If that\'s the case, it would be better if the academy can get involved as well."

"Hong Tan won’t allow it." Someone said, "And even if Infinite Strength blood essence abilities can be used, that is still not that big of a breakthrough. Of course, things would be entirely different if they have Skysoar blood essence abilities as well. The Infinite Strength Realm is the average strength in the Allheaven Battlefield while the Skysoar Realm is the above average strength. If they can produce Skysoar blood essence abilities, then that would be worth investing in."

Infinite Strength cultivators were simply too common in the Allheaven Battlefield. Thus, Infinite Strength abilities were really not that important. It would be a different story if they could allow Infinite Strength cultivators to unleash the strength of Skysoar cultivators. A Skysoar cultivator could easily kill an Infinite Strength cultivator.

Another elder said, "I wonder if the production cost is high. If the cost isn\'t that high, the Infinite Strength blood essence ability would still be worth promoting to the masses. After all, there are still a lot of Great Strength cultivators in the military."

"I doubt it\'s cheap. Ignoring the research cost, just the processed blood essence alone would be 10 times the price of regular Infinite Strength blood essence. If you need to pay 50 merit points per drop just for the strength of an Infinite Strength cultivator, it wouldn\'t be worth it. This is not suitable for mass production."

The cost was too high. In the Allheaven Battlefield, killing an early-stage Infinite Strength cultivator would only grant one a reward of 10 merit points. But the blood essence ability required to make the kill would take 50 merit points. That wouldn\'t be worth it.

They moved on from the topic.

Jia Mingzhen beamed as he looked at Su Yu and said, "This kid\'s growth is a tad bit too crazy. His confidence is at its peak right now. Should I take this chance to step on him for a bit?"

"..."

The others looked at him speechlessly. Could he be less of a bastard? The kid had just reached the peak of his life. If you brought him down to hell right this moment, he might end up not rising from that failure again.

"Cough, cough. Wait. He is still in his growth phase. Xia Chan and the others are still holding back. He\'s not even in the Top 100 Ranking yet. It\'s not a good thing to step on him too harshly right now. We wait."

Even if they were here to provoke the genius students, they still needed to do it step by step. It would be too cruel to do it right now. Only an utter scumbag would do something like that.

...

In the ring.

Su Yu shifted his gaze from Lin Yao and looked at Liu Hong before asking, "Teacher, did I win?"

Liu Hong nodded. He said nothing else.

Su Yu did not ask anything else. He walked toward the dazed Chen Qi and crouched down. The black saber instantly vanished from Chen Qi\'s shoulder, allowing more blood to flow out.

Su Yu silently took out a drop of source qi liquid and used it on the wound. Slowly, the wound started closing up. When that happened, Chen Qi looked up at Su Yu. He still had the same dazed look in his eyes.

Su Yu calmly said, "I did not use you to vent my anger. Our match has been agreed in advance. I am not a fool. How would I agree to a match I have no confidence in winning? I can only say that you were the one who had underestimated me too much.

.

"Since you were the one underestimating me, you can\'t blame me for defeating you in a ring. The mountainbreak bull blood essence was something my teacher won fair and square. I didn\'t rob it from you or anyone else. If your teacher had not agreed to the bet, all this naturally wouldn\'t have happened. Don\'t be a sore loser. Why pester your opponent endlessly after losing? How can someone with such a mentality grow into a true expert?"

Chen Qi was speechless. His expression changed repeatedly. After a while, he spoke hoarsely, "Su Yu, so you have been confident you can defeat me since the very beginning? Is it because of that blood essence?"

Su Yu replied, "Not really. I\'m a third-stage Great Strength cultivator who is also at the Mental Tempering Stage. I have three Divine Characters and a cultural weapon. I\'m here today to prove myself. It is beneath me to waste further time on a piece of trash like Lin Yao. If I have to fight you for real, even without using my blood essence, you would definitely underestimate me. And if I suddenly use my real strength in the middle of the match, are you sure you can handle me in time?

"Since you\'re looking down on me, even if I\'m weaker, I still have a chance to win. Chen Qi, do you think you would be cautious toward me from the very beginning?"

Chen Qi looked even more discouraged. Su Yu was right. Even without using the blood essence, Su Yu could still act weak in the beginning before suddenly taking out the cultural weapon to catch Chen Qi by surprise. He might not necessarily be able to win as he had been underestimating Su Yu since the beginning.

Su Yu said nothing else and helped Chen Qi up. Chen Qi\'s head was lowered in a crestfallen manner. Su Yu then ignored Chen Qi and looked at Lin Yao again.

"Lin Yao. RIght now, I\'m out of source qi and willpower. Didn\'t you claim that I drugged you? Get in the ring. Let\'s see if I can still defeat you in my current condition. Against a worm like you, I can still defeat you with a flick of my finger even in an exhausted state."

Su Yu\'s presence surged as his voice loudly echoed around the ring. Didn\'t Lin Yao claim that he disdained fighting Su Yu? Didn\'t Lin Yao claim that his willpower had been damaged? Fine. Now, Su Yu\'s willpower and source qi were exhausted as well. Get in the ring. Su Yu could still defeat him!

Lin Yao\'s face was flushed red. Get in the ring? Even if he could defeat Su Yu now, he would still be reduced into a joke. His reputation would further plummet and he would only be known as a despicable snake.

He would only prove that he was indeed someone who feared the strong and bullied the weak. If he won, he would kill his reputation. And if he lost...things would be even worse for him. Why? Because he was worse than someone who had just fought a match, someone who was completely exhausted. He would prove that he was a waste of air.

This was a match that wouldn\'t benefit him regardless of the result. In that case, how could he get into the ring? Also, he had never imagined that Su Yu was this strong. He had thought that at most, Su Yu would only be slightly stronger than him. But it was clear that Su Yu was much stronger than him. Even without using any blood essence, Su Yu was still far stronger than him.

...

The crowd looked at both Su Yu and Lin Yao.

Someone said with admiration, "Well done. Su Yu is a gentleman even toward his defeated opponent. From his words, a match had already been arranged between him and Chen Qi long ago. Chen Qi is also quite a shameless one. He had actually secretly challenged Su Yu as well."

They had realized something after hearing Su Yu\'s words. A match was already arranged between Su Yu and Chen Qi. The match today was only supposed to be a warm up for Su Yu. In that case, why would Su Yu need to drug Lin Yao? What a joke.

Su Yu did not even view Lin Yao as a threat. His match with Chen Qi was clearly something arranged for the blood essence in his possession. Su Yu had never expected himself to lose against Lin Yao.

"This is the kind of grace us cultural researchers should have..."

A different person praised. Just look at him. After defeating his opponent, he healed his opponent before helping his opponent up. With Su Yu\'s strength and talent, he could always walk away with disdain. Nobody would say anything if he did that.

After all, Chen Qi was the loser here. He did not have the right to demand respect from his opponent. But instead of being arrogant, Su Yu remained humble and graceful in victory.
