Chapter 153: Chapter 63 Life is Always Full of Surprises (Vote for Sanjiang) Chapter 153: Chapter 63 Life is Always Full of Surprises (Vote for Sanjiang) (Thanks to our new Sect Leader “I don’t want it” for the 50,000 coins reward!
Two extra chapters with the title will be presented after the release on Friday!)
The entire arena was astounded; no one had anticipated that the competition would end in such a manner.
From the outset to the very end, contestant No.
1578, who had constantly surprised everyone, came across an opponent for the first time that he couldn’t defeat head-on.
With everyone’s expectations aroused, it was unexpected that the simple-minded young man on the other side just jumped off the platform and left…
Just quietly walked away.
Is he messing with us?
Not only the other contestants, but even the observers from the colleges were close to cursing out loud.
The most exciting part had just disappeared.
That was merciless.
Do you think you’re streaming on Battle Net to attract viewers, you silly bird!
Zhang Yuanren was completely speechless; he could no longer fathom Mu Fan’s unbelievable luck.
No matter what happened, regardless of whatever obstacles were set up, they had utterly failed to have their intended effect.
You say he was finally injured and even came across a real contender who could match him, and then he just jumps off the platform and leaves…
Damn it!
Zhang Yuanren punched the air furiously.
Those beside him immediately looked at him as if he were a fool.
“Any objections!?” Zhang Yuanren asked fiercely in return.
Seeing his intense demeanor and decent attire, the other person didn’t dare to make a sound.
Hmph!
At this moment, the noble son of the Zhang family was indeed somewhat losing composure.
“Now the loser bracket is getting interesting.”
“Isn’t that the truth?
The competition in the loser bracket might be even more fierce than in the winner group, as the winner group has 100 slots, but the loser bracket has only twenty!”
“But we all know the military’s arrangements; not so many people can get into the Five Great Colleges.”
“First, get the qualifications, then talk.”
Finally, a cold young man ended the discussion with a conversation-stopping remark.
The number of contestants was dwindling, and soon the battle to progress from 200 to 100 began again.
Today’s competition, atypically, didn’t provide the contestants with much rest time; this continuous high-intensity fighting was completely different from before.
Once the competition began, the big guy behind Mu Fan went up first.
Paje secured his entry ticket to the next round, relying on his extraordinary strength, with some difficulty but no real danger.
The rest watched Paje with envious looks as he laughed and left; their journey had just begun.
“Contestant No.
1578 versus No.
30.”
Mu Fan, who had just bid farewell, stood up once more.
He had not had more than half an hour of rest, and it was his turn again.
But…
This was probably when he was in his worst shape in a while.
However, even so, he absolutely couldn’t lose; the goal—top one hundred!
Mu Fan, you’re only one step away now, move forward, and victory is yours!
The fighting spirit in his eyes blazed fiercely as the young man stepped back onto the Fighting Platform.
What’s going on?
His opponent had golden curly hair, about the same height as Duke, who had just left the stage.
But why did his demeanor feel so similar, that innate hint of unsophistication?
Mu Fan suddenly had the feeling that the system matching the opponents had to be manually controlled; it was clearly a matter of bad taste.
This kind of practical joke felt a bit like…
Black?
A lightning bolt struck through his mind.
“Hi, my name is Tyrone!”
The youth with golden curly hair showcased a hearty smile.
Even his smile was similar to Duke’s just now.
“Hello, Mu Fan.”
This time Mu Fan took a solemn stance in preparation to start.
Quick battle, quick decision.
Big Tablet Fall!
No matter what, he had to take this match quickly.
“I know you, you’re really powerful!” The other side showed no intention of taking action.
What kind of tactic was this?
Mu Fan stopped his movements, and the referee looked at the two with a speechless expression.
This might just be the most melodramatic match he had overseen today.
Two minutes had passed since the start, and they were still chatting.
“That kick you did just now was so cool!”
“Oh…”
“Could you teach me?”
Mu Fan: …
Is it really okay to be so earnest and eager to learn on stage like that?
The referee couldn’t take it anymore and coughed, “Please proceed with the match quickly.”
Mu Fan saw a look of disappointment in the eyes of the young man named Tyrone across from him.
“Alright… if there’s a chance,” Mu Fan really couldn’t bear to crush the friendly and studious demeanor of his opponent.
“Fantastic!” The blond young man jumped up, his curly hair swaying quite dashingly.
“By the way, do you think my coat looks new?” Tyrone gestured with his eyes to his brand-new yet unfashionable coat.
Below the stage, the audience had already burst into laughter.
Though they didn’t know what Mu Fan and his opponent were talking about, the sight of a boy wearing outdated clothes, hands on hips, puffing out his chest was indeed hilarious.
“It looks new, and very nice!” Mu Fan, hearing the opponent’s simplest words and remembering his own clothes having lasted five years of wilderness life, nodded affirmatively.
“I knew you’d think so too!”
“You two, stop talking!
Keep talking and you’ll both be disqualified!” The referee was really going crazy, issuing a final ultimatum.
“Do we really have to fight?” The blond young man asked seriously.
“Yes!
Isn’t that why you’re here!” The referee shouted fiercely.
“We’re here to get into the Five Great Colleges!” Tyrone said proudly.
This guy is insane!
How does every kind of person end up here?
The referee had no desire to speak with the young man anymore.
Some of the Observers on stage were also amused.
Mu Fan’s opponent had not been impressive before and it was a mystery how he got into the top two hundred, but nobody expected him to be such a chatterbox.
They couldn’t help but smile knowingly; it looked like Mu Fan had this in the bag.
“Since we must fight, then you go ahead and hit me once.” Shaking his coat, the blond young man crossed his arms and spoke earnestly.
“Don’t mind if I do.”
Now, entering the top hundred was Mu Fan’s only goal.
The dream was just taking off.
With all his might!
Aiming for the other’s arm, Mu Fan decided to strike there, not lethal but still inflicting effective damage.
Ha!
Mu Fan took the initiative to strike first.
Crack!
There was a somewhat muffled sound.
Mu Fan suddenly pulled back his hand.
That strike just now—
He saw the blond curly-haired young man smiling at him.
No harm done?
What the crowd watching saw was two people talk amicably for a long time, and then, out of nowhere, contestant number 1578 struck with his palm.
But why did the “Great Demon King” stop?
Because Mu Fan felt like he had hit fine steel again!
Was Mu Fan holding back?
Absolutely not, he controlled eight-tenths of his strength in that palm strike.
Mu Fan prepared to ramp up his power.
“Referee!”
What’s the matter?
The referee was baffled by the blond young man’s sudden raising of his hand.
What on earth are you trying to do!
“He’s too strong; I lose!”
The referee stumbled, “This isn’t a place for you to come and play!”
“I forfeit!” Tyrone said proudly, stroking his brand-new coat.
Just go…
The referee didn’t want to speak anymore and waved his hand dismissing the matter.
Leaving Mu Fan stunned in the background once again.
What was up with the two people he encountered today?
“Oh right, Duke is my good buddy, he told me just before going on stage!
And thanks for the compliment on my coat!
I didn’t want to get it dirty.
Goodbye!” With a wave, the dashing young man jumped off the stage and left.
The referee’s heart was in turmoil, like a mountain collapsing.
Looking at the still puzzled Mu Fan, he announced the victory!
In the midst of the audience’s shock—
Mu Fan advanced to the top hundred!
