Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Novel - Chapter 81

The first round of the finals ended. The results were good and bad for the Earth Federation.

Of the 17 participating martial artists of the Earth Federation who had entered the finals, 11 had successfully defeated their opponents and entered the next round.

This way, among the remaining 32 participants in the final stage of the adult group, more than a third of the participants were from the Earth Federation, raising the chances of the Earth Federation entering the top eight and even greatly increasing their chances of winning the championship.

However, compared to the adult group, those under the age of 20 were much more miserable.

There were not many young martial artists from the Earth Federation who had successfully entered the final stage of the group competition below the age of 20. There were only a mere six. In the end, after the first round of the competition ended, a total of four were directly eliminated, and only two were left!

Among the remaining 16 participating martial artists, the proportion of young martial artists in the Earth Federation was actually only 12.5%!

One had to know that this result was still under the premise that Supremacy Mu Yutong took out a B-rank or even A-rank martial technique as a reward!

If such an extremely tempting reward was unable to make the young martial artists of the Earth Federation perform well, it could only mean that their strength was indeed insufficient.

This result immediately made the people of the Earth Federation, who had been paying close attention to the situation of the previous competition, even more nervous.

Miss Tang Xiaoyou was right. Young martial artists represented the future of the Earth Federation’s martial arts development. If the young martial artists of the Earth Federation performed so badly in this competition, did that not mean that the Earth Federation’s martial arts development had already encountered a serious crisis?

Everyone’s attention was focused on the two remaining young martial artists of the Earth Federation.

One of them was naturally Chu Nan. “Mr. Rengal, do you think Chu Nan can pass the next round?” Diana asked the question that many people were concerned about. “This…”

After being a guest of the Martial Arts World Channel for so long, this was the first time that Rengal had shown such hesitation on a show.

“To be honest… I don’t dare to say. From the surface, although Chu Nan has improved compared to the initial stages, he has yet to reach the level of an Internal Breath Martial Artist. According to the strength revealed in the previous competition, his next opponent should at least be a second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist.”

“Then, do you think Chu Nan can’t defeat his opponent?”

“No.” Rengal shook his head. “Chu Nan has already proved that although he’s still an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist, he has the strength to defeat an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. Therefore, even if his opponent is a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, it doesn’t mean that he has no chance of winning.”

Diana frowned slightly, “Then, Mr. Rengal, what level of martial artist do you think Chu Nan is equivalent to with his current strength?”

“Your question stumped me.” Rengal smiled bitterly, “To be honest, I’m completely unable to determine what level Chu Nan’s true strength is at because his past performance has already exceeded my expectations many times. Ordinary martial artists’ ratings can’t be completely used on him.”

After a pause, Rengal added, “Of course, although he has the strength to jump levels and defeat a few low-level Internal Breath Martial Artists, this does not mean that he can defeat all the low-level Internal Breath Martial Artists. To these martial artists who are still at the initial stage, what determines the outcome of their battle is not only the degree of tempering of their bodies and the martial techniques they know, but more importantly, it’s whether they can maintain their calm in battle and their confidence in themselves. In these two points, Chu Nan’s performance has clearly surpassed young martial artists of the same age. He’s worthy of the praise of two Star-Grade Martial Artists.”

“In other words, you still think that the possibility of Chu Nan defeating his opponent is higher?” Diana immediately asked.

Rengal laughed, “Chu Nan is a martial artist of our Earth Federation, so I naturally hope that he can defeat his opponent. Here, I also hope that the other Earth Federation audience can give Chu Nan more support and cheers. Don’t give him too much pressure and let him unleash his strength better.”

“Mr. Rengal is right. Alright, please evaluate the other young martial artist from the Earth Federation who has entered the next round, Tomler Hussein…”

Chu Nan stared at his opponent and could not help but reveal an abnormally surprised expression.

This opponent… was actually holding a spear in his hand!

“What? You’ve never seen this before?”

Seeing Chu Nan’s expression, this young martial artist called Cardu smiled proudly. He shook the spear in his hand and drew a beautiful flower in the air.

“No.” Chu Nan shook his head obediently.

It was not only that he had never seen it before. He was even certain that the audience and other martial artists present had never seen this.

This guy had clearly only used his fists and feet like all the other participating martial artists in the previous competition. Why did he suddenly take out a spear?

Shouldn’t cold weapons like spears only exist in the hands of museums or collectors with special hobbies?

Not to mention that modern high-tech weapons had long eliminated all cold weapons, even martial artists who were focused on martial arts would not choose cold weapons.

This was because even high-level Overlord Body Martial Artists would no longer be damaged by cold weapons, let alone higher-level Internal Breath Martial Artists.

As for powerful martial artists of higher levels, the power they could unleash was already comparable to modern high-tech weapons. How could they care about these harmless cold weapons?

Moreover, compared to the flexibility that the human body could unleash, not only could an additional cold weapon control not give a martial artist any advantage, it would most likely become a burden. It was not a good thing

Therefore, generally speaking, no martial artist would specially choose cold weapons as weapons. Even if they really needed weapons, the various weapons produced by high-tech technology could still be found to be far more suitable than cold weapons.

Of course, Chu Nan would not underestimate this opponent because of this.

Since the other party dared to take out an extremely rare cold weapon like a spear, he must have his own unique understanding and use in this.

“Let me remind you first. This Kaff spear was passed down by my ancestors and is made from an extremely special material in our Phezzan Autonomous Region. It’s far from what ordinary cold weapons can compare to. In the battle later, don’t be pierced by me because you underestimate it.”

Cardu seemed to have been used to Chu Nan and the surrounding audience’s surprised gazes. Not only did he not show any discomfort, he even proudly explained to Chu Nan.

Chu Nan nodded and his body sank slightly as he assumed a posture of facing an enemy.

Under the circumstances, he did not plan to rashly attack. It was best to observe more and respond.

Cardu was not polite. When he saw Chu Nan putting on a defensive posture, he twisted his waist and the spear pierced out from his waist like a thick venomous snake, instantly arriving in front of him.

“Alright!”

In the instant that the long spear pierced out, Chu Nan had already determined from various fine statistics that the speed of this spear was extremely fast and the angle was extremely tricky. Due to the long spear being 3.618959 meters in length, it had greatly reduced the distance between the two of them, causing it to stab towards him as soon as he attacked.

Since Chu Nan could see the precise data, he was naturally prepared. With a shout, he raised his left arm and punched upwards, accurately hitting the lower part of the spear tip.

In his calculations, the force of this punch was as high as 721.623893 kilograms, and it was definitely enough to send the spear flying. Then, he could take the opportunity to charge at Cardu and counterattack.

However, just as his fist collided with the spear, Chu Nan suddenly felt an extremely cold and sharp aura coming from the spear.

He only felt a chill pass through his fist. He knew that the situation was bad and hurriedly changed his direction to retreat. He tapped his feet and took two steps back. Looking down, he saw that the back of his left hand had already been cut open. A deep wound had opened up, and the bones of his hand could almost be seen in the deepest part. It was a terrifying sight.
