Chapter 660: Chapter 363_2
“`
That was a young-looking woman, clad in a fitted black martial arts uniform, her short hair neatly styled, her expression extremely grave as she assumed a tight boxing guard, standing ready for the fight.
As innumerable Qi Forces approached, she took a deep breath and her gaze sharpened.
“Heavenly Phenomenon Eight Sceneries – Rising Mist!”
“Galaxies.”
“Dawn.”
“Rainbow Sky!”
Countless martial arts secret techniques came to her as if they were at her fingertips, defending against the large-scale, incalculable flow of Qi Force.
Although she had defended exceptionally well, making all the best choices within her capacity, managing to block many of the converging Qi Forces, as Xue Jing slightly lifted his finger, the attacking rhythm and formation of the Qi Force suddenly changed, catching the woman off guard. A tiny flaw appeared in her defense, and several Qi Forces found the gap, striking her body.
One mistake led to another, like a row of dominoes falling, a small flaw resulting in a larger breach. More and more Qi Forces broke through her defenses and, ultimately – a torrent descended upon her.
“Pfft, pfft, pfft—”
Numerous blood holes exploded over the woman’s body, like being in the eye of a storm. By the time the storm had subsided, she was kneeling on the ground, covered in wounds.
The final heavy Qi Force descended from the sky, striking her on the back of the head with a thud, knocking her out cold and face down on the ground.
“…Absolutely no mercy.”
“Truly worthy of being called a Demon King, he’s really brutal. It seems he doesn’t discriminate between genders in his eyes, everyone is just crushed with one move.”
“This must be a new record, from starting to climb the rankings to now, all forty-six thousand floors were cleared with a single move.”
“There are many records of defeating opponents with one move from the beginning to the end, but if we limit the age to under eighteen, this might be the only case…”
“How can such a monstrously talented individual exist? This feels even more outrageous than Li Suisui… I heard it has been less than half a year since he seriously started his martial arts practice, this must be false, right…”
As the competition ended, the spectators issued sighs of emotion while casting their votes of admiration.
Looking up at the boy on the stage who had started performing the head-pat ritual again, everyone couldn’t help but conceive a thought.
A new era may be upon us.
“Next up, he will face a real challenge… none of the nine hundred Level Masters are easy to contend with, surely it can’t still be resolved with one move?”
“It’s impossible. Even the Level Master of the first floor, Ye Honghui, is a top-class expert at the Second Breakthrough level. Xue Jing might win, but it definitely won’t be easy.”
“I think it’s very hard to win. Although Xue Jing is strong, his ‘Thousand Streams’ and ‘Unity’ techniques are so ingenious that they are hard to believe. But having watched for so long, I’ve already estimated his true realm, which is at most around the peak of the first Breakthrough.”
“Even though his unrivaled skill allows him to instantly kill opponents of the same level, the basic strength gap is too large against someone at the Second Breakthrough level. Under pure numerical oppression, even the best techniques are of little practical use.”
“I disagree. Demon King Xue scored an A+ in the skill assessment, which means his attack is definitely strong enough to reach someone at the Second Breakthrough level. I think he can win!”
“How can an all-out A+ be the same as an A+ that can be thrown arbitrarily… He can execute moves that burst beyond his own realm with various explosive martial arts techniques, and so can the Second Breakthrough individuals. That kind of assessment means nothing.”
“No need for more words, let’s just watch and see.”
Amidst the discussions, Xue Jing slowly retracted his hand and stepped down from the stage.
Back in the resting room, Xuanling spoke in his ear:
“You’ve won three fights on the forty-six thousandth floor; you can now begin to apply for a Level Master challenge.”
“Do you want to apply now?”
Upon hearing this, Xue Jing thought for a moment, and asked, “How long will it take to start the fight after applying?”
“`
Xuanling replied, “It depends on the response of the other party… All the Level Masters have a certain degree of autonomy. If the other party agrees immediately, the fight can start right away, or they can freely decide the time after agreeing. The challenge will take place on one of the three days following the Level Master’s choice.”
“If they don’t agree… then we must wait until the compulsory challenge period that comes every three months before we can force a challenge to that Level Master.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Jing frowned and said, “Is it that troublesome?”
Xuanling: “The rules were set like this at the founding of the Extreme Martial Ascension Palace, and I have no power to change them… However, if the first level’s Level Master does not agree, you can bypass him and decide whether to challenge the second level’s Level Master, and so on. Theoretically, if the previous 899 levels’ Level Masters all refuse the challenge, you can directly challenge the highest 900th Level Master.”
Xue Jing nodded, “I see… then go ahead and apply for me. If they disagree, keep applying upwards until someone agrees.”
Xuanling said, “Understood, I will arrange it right away.”
…
On the bed in the resting room, Xue Jing lay in the lion’s pose, in the midst of “Nirvana.”
…
Watching the youth on the stage who had begun the head-touching ritual again, everyone couldn’t help but have one thought.
A new era might just be dawning.
“The real challenge he faces next… none of the 900 Level Masters will be easy to deal with. Surely it can’t be resolved with just one move again, right?”
“It’s impossible. Even Ye Honghui of the first level is a top-tier expert at the Second Breakthrough level. Xue Jing might win, but it definitely won’t be easy.”
“I think it’s very difficult for him to win. Although Xue Jing is strong, his ‘Myriad Streams’ and ‘Unity’ techniques are unbelievably intricate, but after watching for so long, I’ve already estimated his actual realm—it’s at most around the peak of the first Breakthrough.”
“Even relying on unrivaled techniques to instantly take down opponents of the same level, facing a Second Breakthrough-level person, the gap in basic strength is too wide. Under the pure numerical suppression, even the best skills would have no room to be used.”
“I disagree, Demon King Xue scored an A+ in the skill evaluation test. His attack power is definitely sufficient against Second Breakthrough level opponents. I think he can win!”
“An A+ scored with all one’s might is not the same as an A+ scored effortlessly… He can unleash attacks that exceed his own realm with various explosive Martial Arts, but Second Breakthrough level individuals will also have similar methods at their disposal. Such ratings are unreliable.”
“Let’s not talk too much, just wait and see.”
Amongst the discussions, Xue Jing slowly retracted his hand and stepped down from the stage.
After returning to the resting room, Xuanling whispered in his ear:
“You’ve reached three victories on the 46,000th layer, and you can now begin to apply for a challenge to the Level Master.”
“Do you want to apply now?”
Considering this, Xue Jing asked, “How soon can we start after applying?”
Xuanling replied, “It depends on the response of the other party… All the Level Masters have a certain degree of autonomy. If the other party agrees immediately, the fight can start right away, or they can freely decide the time after agreeing. The challenge will take place on one of the three days following the Level Master’s choice.”
