116: Turmoil in the Practical Combat Hall 116: Turmoil in the Practical Combat Hall South Pole Academy Practical Combat Hall.
At this moment, the vast hall was filled with students from South Pole Academy and other academies including Qing Province, East Pole, Wanzhou, and more.
In the central arena, a few people were sparring two by two.
They were all freshmen who had just entered two months ago, all at the Bronze Level, with not much difference in their levels.
If they didn’t get on the field to spar, it would be hard to tell their true strength.
The few people currently sparring had average strength, roughly equivalent to the top hundred at Demon Capital Academy, but far behind the top 30 or even the top 10 new students.
Obviously, this was just the appetizer.
The real experts from each academy hadn’t stepped in, still observing on the side, seemingly waiting for something.
Just then, led by Zhang Tai and Du Tao, the students from Demon Capital Academy walked into the hall.
“Oh?
The people from Demon Capital Academy are here!”
As soon as Zhang Tai and the others entered, someone in the hall immediately noticed.
At this, students from East Pole, Liu Zhou, Qing Province, and other major academies all looked over.
“The people from Demon Capital Academy are finally here!”
“The appetizer is over.
Now the real course is about to begin!”
The true experts from various academies hadn’t moved, waiting for one of the Three Cities’ academies, Demon Capital Academy.
Now that the people from Demon Capital Academy had arrived, things were about to get serious…
“Clearly, they’re closer to South Pole than we are.
They’re the last ones to arrive, the folks from Demon Capital Academy really put on airs.” A blue-haired young man from Liu Zhou Academy snorted coldly, crossing his arms.
In the middle of the East Pole Academy group, a tall, sunny young man smiled and asked the long-haired girl next to him in a black and purple combat uniform, “Fang Hua, the people from Demon Capital Academy are here.
Do you want to spar with them later?”
The long-haired girl glanced over and then said, “That depends on whether there’s anyone interesting from Demon Capital Academy.”
In the Wanzhou team, a young man over 1.8 meters tall swept his eyes over the Demon Capital Academy crowd, frowning slightly after a moment.
The purple-eyed young man next to him asked curiously, “Jiu Jun, didn’t you say someone from Demon Capital Academy once defeated you?
Are they here, among these people?”
Yes, this 1.8-meter-tall young man was none other than Chen Jiujun, Su Yuan’s classmate from Guangchuan Fourth Middle School, specially recruited by Wanzhou Academy.
But now, Chen Jiujun’s aura felt condensed yet gave off a thick sense of oppression, exuding confidence and calmness, making him distinctly different from before.
It seemed that over the past two months, he had gone through some significant experiences.
“He’s not here.” Chen Jiujun carefully checked again and indeed did not see Su Yuan.
The purple-eyed young man rubbed his chin, a look of confusion on his face.
“Didn’t come even though it’s the Ten Thousand Demon Sleeping Ground Secret Realm this time.
It seems the person who defeated you isn’t doing so well now~
Maybe his potential isn’t good, and he has become ordinary after enrolling?”
Chen Jiujun was about to deny it but couldn’t help thinking of Su Yuan’s situation when he had been stuck at Star Apprentice Sixth Stage for almost two years without awakening.
Could it really be?
A repeat of history, stuck at Star Apprentice Ninth Rank unable to break through to Bronze?
But after a brief thought, Chen Jiujun dismissed this possibility as too unrealistic.
Chen Jiujun frowned, “He was at Star Apprentice Ninth Rank Limit when he graduated.
It’s impossible that he hasn’t broken through after so long.
And with his combat power, as long as he breaks through, there will definitely be a place for him among the 50 slots for the Ten Thousand Demon Sleeping Ground from Demon Capital Academy.”
The purple-eyed young man was quite surprised, “Oh?
Do you rate him that highly?”
Chen Jiujun nodded, “He is the first person I want to defeat now.”
“The first?” The purple-eyed young man asked, “Including me, he’s the first?”
“Of course, because you’re the second.”
The purple-eyed young man was stunned for a moment, then the corner of his mouth curved up, and a slight interest slowly appeared in his eyes, “Now you’ve got me curious.
I want to see how strong the person who defeated you really is!”
Chen Jiujun shook his head, “But there are only about forty people here.
I guess he’s not planning to come to the practical combat hall.”
