Goku, it's up to you

Chapter 317 The Knife Sharpening Trial
the next morning.

This year's National College Freshman Competition is divided into 7 divisions for qualifying competition - East China, Central China, South China, North China, Northwest, Southwest, and Northeast China.

As for the Special Administrative Region, they will not participate in this competition as in previous years.

The first opponent of the Imperial University qualifiers was not a university from outside the province, but a school in the city - Imperial Normal University.

You only need to take a bus to get there, which saves you the trouble of traveling.

"Although this is only the first game of the qualifiers, we must not take it lightly. Because the school we faced first was not an unknown school, but the Imperial Normal University, which often competed until the later stages of the qualifiers. If you underestimate the enemy too much, , then if you are not careful, it is entirely possible to go back in despair. By then, you will become a laughing stock in the history of the school, and will be passed down as a shame to the Imperial University."

Niu Feng, who is in charge of leading the team, is mobilizing before the game.

Although generally speaking, the school team members and teachers who are responsible for playing often represent the image of the school.

But for the qualifiers, which have average attention, cumbersome procedures, and require traveling everywhere, in the eyes of the Imperial University tutor group, it is undoubtedly a thankless job.

Only when it comes to the finals and the event is broadcast on national television, will they get interested and actively sign up.

As for the candidate to lead the team in the early qualifiers, it basically fell on the mentor group of Jade Bird Academy.

Niu Feng, who has been a work activist since he joined the company, also successfully ran for office.

"Hey, it's impossible to lose. Even if the rest of us are penetrated and rubbed on the ground, as long as Brother Xuan is here to take charge, it won't be a problem."

"That is to say, even if a few of us are beaten by the opponent, it is only to pave the way for the effect of the show, making the audience think that the glorious myth of our Imperial University is about to be shattered. Brother Xuan directly comes on the court and goes through five, turning the tide and making a comeback. Such a hot game will definitely be trending when the time comes.”

"There is a saying. If there is Brother Xuan in the team, it doesn't matter who the teammates are. Even if my grandma brings the little yellow dogs and big black cows from the countryside to participate in the competition, they can be taken away and win the championship all the way. We have actually done It’s ready to be used as a background board,”

The members of the second team showed no concern for Teacher Niu's instructions.

Although Bu Xuan'er, Xiao Shi and other team members did not speak in agreement, they nodded slightly in agreement.

"Chen Xuan can win. That is his own ability. It does not mean that you are in the same team this time. Every time there is a competition in the future, you can form a team together and win like you do now. Since you have a rare opportunity to practice in actual combat, you can We should grasp it well, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and be prepared.”

Faced with these many "Chen Xuan's boasts", Teacher Niu did not refute.

After all, Chen Xuan's strength is obvious to all, and he deserves to be the No. 1 freshman in this year's Imperial University.

Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, after this freshman competition, he will be promoted to the No. 1 freshman of the same age in the country.

If you can lose with such a trump card, then you can't win no matter how you arrange the other cards in your hand.

Therefore, he could only remind everyone not to hone their skills just because there are "plug-ins" in the team.

Although the freshmen competition can be held together throughout the competition, after the competition, each still has its own path to go.

"."

Everyone in the car trusted Chen Xuan extremely, but he himself felt sweaty and did not dare to say a word.

Ridiculous, these people are outrageous.

After all, every one of them successfully fought their way out of the thousands of people who took the college entrance examination before entering Teito University.

Moreover, no matter whether they end up in the first team or the second team, they are all the best ones selected and competed among the top peers in the same class.
They are all obviously excellent, but in the end, none of them have any energy at all?

At this age, one should be younger and more energetic. He expressed his dissatisfaction with himself as an 'outsider' who had never participated in the quota election and directly parachuted into the team. Then he volunteered for military service, issued a military order, and then went on the field to kill indiscriminately. , not leaving any chance for him to take action?
What's wrong with today's young people? ? ?
"Ugh"

Looking at the passing scenery outside the window, Chen Xuan couldn't help but hold his head and sighed softly.

Originally, he thought that Bajie was a bit of a loser, but it didn't matter. Emperor Da was the proud son of heaven. When the time came, his teammates would be responsible for leading the flight. Bajie would only have to be a cannon fodder that drained his opponent's physical strength.

Unexpectedly, his teammates expected him to use Bajie, a parallel import, to lead the team.

It seems that the only option is to quickly think of a way to make more money in the short term and quickly upgrade Bajie to the ninth level of the sergeant level.

In this way, even if there is a lack of combat skills, Kesheng will have the combat advantage brought by a high level, at least he will not be too embarrassed.

"Why did he sigh?"

Chen Xuan, the core of the team in front of him, suddenly sighed, and the others couldn't help but become curious, and whispered about Yang Yiqun, who was in the same major and class as him.

Could it be that he felt pressure because he had to face the Imperial Normal University in the afternoon?

No, it shouldn't be. During military training, he was able to single-handedly challenge the instructors, and was promoted to the rank of lieutenant before everyone else. He even achieved the SS grade student achievement that was recorded in school history not long after the freshman year. .

Shouldn't this kind of genius destined to become a legend defy the sky and the earth, exude self-confidence from the inside out, no matter who the opponent is?
Why are you facing the Imperial Normal University team now with a sad look on your face?
shouldn't
"I guess it's because I was appointed as a trump card because I was playing in the imperial division's varsity team. Then I had to sit and watch the game all afternoon and couldn't go to training, so I thought it was a waste of time."

Yang Yiqun shrugged unsurprisingly.

If others don't understand Chen Xuan, can he still understand him?
The king of rolls among the kings of rolls skipped class right after school started to go to practice on his own, and he was like a dragon all day long.

School started on September 9st, and now it’s October 1th, and I haven’t had a single class during this period.

For a person who thinks that even going to class is a waste of time, if he is forced to sit on the waiting table and watch an afternoon of worthless battles, then you don't have to guess, it will definitely be more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Huh? Really? Is he so crazy in training?"

"In order to grow and progress while sleeping, he actually learned how to stay awake in his dreams so that he could review them in his sleep? How terrifying!"

"I was shocked. Is his amount of training real? One day's intensity is enough to support me for a month! No wonder he is so strong after working so hard!"

As Yang Yiqun recounted the "Chen Xuan's internal affairs" that he had imagined, everyone was amazed.

When he looked at Chen Xuan again, he couldn't help but change his eyes from envy for his extraordinary talent to admiration for God's reward for hard work.
After arriving at the Imperial Capital Normal University, the school also showed its kindness to the landlord and arranged a good lounge for everyone to recharge for the afternoon game.

Hmm. In order to create a competitive advantage, the kind of thing that specifically arranges a dirty and messy environment to mess with the opponent's mentality has not happened.

At least there is no need to resort to such tactics when facing Imperial University, which has always occupied the quota for national competitions in the North China Division.

You're going to lose anyway, so it's better to lose generously and avoid criticism.

Moreover, it can be said that the channels for universities in the entire North China Division to enter the national competition through the 'qualifiers' have been blocked by 'Teito University'.

Therefore, the only way to obtain the eighth ticket in addition to the seven major division teams is through the subsequent 'revival match'.

In a sense, the 'Resurrection Tournament' in which seven major competition regions and hundreds of colleges and universities participate in the competition may be regarded as the real national competition.

"Don't be so gloomy. Isn't it just that you have to sit down in the afternoon and can't go to training? Just think of it as a holiday for yourself, take a good look at the level of normal peers, and experience the public sentiment."

Seeing Chen Xuan who was still unhappy, Yang Yiqun took the initiative to come over and comfort him.

"What are you talking about? What I'm worried about is the lack of money in my pocket, okay?" Facing this inexplicable question, Chen Xuan couldn't help but wonder.

"Forget about Versailles. A human-shaped money printing machine like you can't make money, but still be short of money?"

Yang Yiqun rolled his eyes.

But looking at Chen Xuan's helpless expression, he couldn't help but be stunned and asked: "No, are you really short of money?"

"It's really lacking."

"How much are you missing? If it's not much, I can lend you some."

"It's not too much, just borrow more than 3000 million."

".If I add a few zeros, I can lend you 3000 yuan."

Yang Yiqun looked complicated, "By the way, why did you go there? Why are you short of so much money?"

"I'm not doing anything, I just want to improve my strength."

Chen Xuan scratched his head and said, "The way of an imperial envoy is magnificent. How can one become stronger without using gold? You think so, right?"

To upgrade Bajie from the 1st level to the 9th level, a total of 36 school-level talismans are required.

The standard market price of a school-level talisman is 100 million, and 36 talismans are 3600 million.

This amount of money is not a small amount. Even if he does the task very efficiently, it will still take at least half a year.

"3000 million, even if you sell me, it won't be worth so much money."

Yang Yiqun sighed with emotion, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly suggested: "By the way, I thought of a way. Although I can't make 3000 million at once, a few million is still possible, and it doesn't conflict with the schedule of the freshman competition. "

"any solution?"

Chen Xuan asked curiously.

"I wonder if you have ever heard of the 'Knife-Sharpening Trial'?"

Yang Yiqun explained, "The promotion level of the non-commissioned officer to the lieutenant level, and the lieutenant level to the school level are both relatively difficult, and it is often not easy to achieve success by just practicing hard.

If a charioteer feels that he has fallen into a bottleneck where he cannot progress in meditation, he will choose to enter the realm of death to experience, stimulating his own potential between life and death, and achieve a breakthrough on the spot.

but
Although this method is effective, the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is very expensive, and many of the imperial envoys never return.

Therefore, for the sake of life safety, more envoys will choose to fight with envoys who are stronger than themselves.

Although they are also facing opponents who are stronger than themselves, because they live in a society governed by the rule of law, even if they lose in a battle, their lives will generally not be harmed.

Therefore, when there is a way out, it is difficult to effectively corner yourself and unlock your potential.

then
Some people add some bets that are unacceptable to them on the basis of the Royal Envoys' duel.

The most common one is probably a relatively large amount of money. Savings that have been saved for a long time are often worth half a life.

Of course, there are also shameful plays such as cross-dressing and pole dancing. Death in society is death.

In short, the purpose of the bet is to cut off one's retreat as much as possible after defeat, and then fight with one's back to the wall, break through and then stand up.

This behavior is called the 'sharpening test'.

but.
You want to sharpen your knife, but others are unwilling to be the whetstone.

There is no benefit if you win, and you lose your reputation if you lose. Only relatives, friends, and elders are willing to do this kind of thing that harms oneself and benefits others.

However, if the opponent is someone close to you, it actually leaves room for cheating if you lose, and the effect of the 'sharpening test' is directly reduced by half.

Therefore, the best test object should be a strange messenger who cannot be beaten with eight poles.

And if you want to let strangers you don't know fight, you can only pay for it out of your own pocket and give some benefits.

Over time, basically every gym has launched a 'sharpening trial' service.

Some of the more famous universities are also keeping up with the pace and following closely behind.

After all, there are still many people who like to join in the excitement of the 'Knife Trial', and this is undoubtedly a good publicity opportunity.

And since college students' wallets are always hungry, fees are usually lower.

The most important thing is that as new students enroll and old students graduate, the school’s facade often changes, which is undoubtedly the biggest advantage.

Because 'The Trial of the Knife' doesn't have a good reputation at all.

Think about it, if everyone says that a certain 'whetstone' is very hard, they won't dare to grind it, for fear of destroying their Taoist heart.

And if you know in advance that the 'whetstone' is too soft, it won't have the effect of a trial even if you win.

Only the leading figures in each university not only have the ability to serve as a 'whetstone', but at the same time, the outside world knows very little about their details.

In this case, you only need to choose a college that you feel is comparable to your own, and then there is a high probability that you will be able to choose a suitable 'whetstone'. "

"That's not right"

Chen Xuan asked, "If you want to challenge the 'Whetstone', you need to pay a commission. What does this have to do with making money? Do you want me to be the 'Whetstone'?"

"You can make money as a 'whetstone', but that would be too slow."

Yang Yiqun shook his head, "Since it is a bet, it must not be one-sided. The other party will also bet. After all, the trial can be mutual. As long as you can ensure that you win steadily, and let the other party produce something that can surely win you. Illusion, it’s a sure-fire business.”

"It seems like there's something going on. Does Imperial Normal University offer a 'sharpening test' service?"

Chen Xuan nodded thoughtfully.

"Yes, Imperial Master An Ning is quite famous."

"Emperor Master King? Is your nickname so crazy?"

"Is there a possibility that his surname is Wang?"
