When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 58 When Will Dongxia Be Number One?
[King of Verbal Confidence]: Yujing Martial Arts University has five martial arts halls distributed across five campuses. The martial arts hall on the North Campus conducts admissions assessments every year during the admissions season. There's a high probability that your semi-finals will be held at this martial arts hall.

At night, the "Mouth King," who already knew about the changes in the semi-finals, was discussing the location of the semi-finals with Bai Ze.

He seemed to know a lot about Yujing Martial Arts University, and directly stated the most likely location for the semi-finals.

【Night Rain Sounds Annoying】: Brother Mouth Strong, you know a lot.

[King of Talk]: Would I tell you that I prepared thoroughly for the entrance exam of Yujing Martial Arts University back then, but failed and could only enter Yanjing Martial Arts University through special admission with tears in my eyes?
[The sound of rain at night is disturbing]: ·····
What a tearful departure from the special admissions program! Those damn privileged individuals.

Bai Ze was so envious he was unrecognizable.

Although he is now capable of taking the entrance exam for Yujing Martial Arts University, it does not stop him from envying privileges.

[Night Rain Sounds]: So, Brother Zuiqiang is in Yanjing now?

[King of Mouths]: I'm preparing to go to Jiujiang. The champion of this year's Youth Cup will get instruction from Yao Guang, who might even show up at Yujing Martial Arts University! So I'm going on a pilgrimage. [Excited]
'Will Mu Yaoguang show up? Could it be that the reason for changing the competition is this? Is Mu Yaoguang that important?'

Upon seeing this, Bai Ze couldn't help but think, 'They can't possibly be trying to capitalize on Mu Yaoguang's fame to make money off her fans and boost the economy, can they?'

There must be many people who share the same idea as the "King of Mouths," so the scene is bound to be packed with people, and you might actually get a lot of gold coins.

Thinking this, Bai Ze replied, "If Brother Zui Qiang is also going to Jiujiang, remember to cheer me on."

Bai Ze couldn't say how much truth or falsehood the "King of Mouths" usually spoke, but at least one thing was certain: this guy was a powerful figure.

Since he's a powerful figure, Bai Ze might as well meet him; he might need his help someday.

[King of Verbal Strength]: I won't shout, Brother Night Rain, you're too hateful. I need to stand further away to avoid getting blood on me.

What he said actually makes a lot of sense; Bai Ze could even foresee that scenario himself.

When Ye Yushengfan and Bai Ze merged into one, his name echoed throughout the martial arts hall. Old and new friends who had been tortured by him looked at him with friendly eyes, wishing they could immediately exchange blows with Bai Ze.

While you might not be afraid of PvP battles on the StarNet, that might not be the case in real life.

【Night Rain Sounds Annoying】: It makes me afraid to even participate in the competition.

[King of Verbal Strength]: What if I said that the force field technique associated with the "Sheathless Sword Drawing Technique" can help with body training and condensing strength and spirit?
【Night Rain Sounds Annoying】: A true martial artist fears no hardship.

It must be admitted that the words of the "King of Verbal Confidence" piqued Bai Ze's interest.

If it's just the "Sheathless Sword Drawing Technique," it would at most give Bai Ze another way to attack. But if he condenses his inner strength, then it's a different story.

Nothing about Mu Yaoguang is simple; this technique might be one she practiced when she was at the second star level.

In addition-

'To know even such a secret, the king of verbal sparring is either a top-tier crystal powder, the kind who can investigate Mu Yaoguang's techniques without fear of being killed, or...'

Bai Ze had some vague guesses in his mind, but he couldn't prove them.

Although it's always been said that Mu Yaoguang is in another world, and theoretically, the internet connection shouldn't be able to reach that world, this is just a rumor, and its veracity is unknown. Furthermore, even if she did go to another world, she might return early, just without appearing in public.

'I wish we could meet.'

The method to determine the identity of the "King of Mouth" is actually very simple. According to him, he has not achieved much in martial arts and is only a theoretical expert, so he must not have reached the fourth level and cannot cultivate the "Wind and Dew Drinking Skill".

Once Bai Ze sees the real person of the "King of Mouths," his guess will be confirmed.

Surely that senior student wouldn't be wearing the smell of excrement on herself to fool Bai Ze, would she?
'Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll just focus on cultivating.' Bai Ze let out a soft breath, gave himself a 'clear mind' buff, and began practicing.

Although the cultivation technique will automatically operate under the effect of his words even if he does nothing, the effect is definitely better if he participates voluntarily than if he leaves it running.

The next morning.

Bai Ze woke up at six o'clock sharp, washed up, packed his clothes, and then left the inpatient department with a backpack on his back.

The relevant procedures had already been arranged by the former principal, so Bai Ze only needed to pack his bag and leave the hospital.

Just as he stepped out of the hospital building, a sprightly figure came into view. The old principal stood in the morning sunlight, holding a wooden box, and looked at Bai Ze as he approached, his expression slightly different.

Previously, they had been communicating mainly through the StarNet and hadn't noticed anything amiss. But now, seeing the boy in real life, they discovered that he had undergone a complete transformation.

His face was radiant, with a warm, jade-like glow, and his eyes shone brightly, exuding a sense of vitality and well-being.

More importantly, his aura was clear and pure, with no strange smell.

'His innate breathing technique is clear and ethereal; he has already entered the Qi Absorption Realm. Only a month... Mu Yaoguang also reached this realm in about a month. This boy's talent is no less than Mu Yaoguang's.'

Thinking of this, the old principal laughed heartily, "Very good, full of energy. I can tell at a glance that you have the makings of a champion. This time, the championship is in the bag."

After popping champagne at halftime, the former principal planted another flag.

He stepped forward with a smile, holding the wooden box beside him, and handed it to Bai Ze, saying, "This is the Xiaolian series, forged by Yuqing Heavy Industry by combining ancient methods and modern technology. Take a look."

Bai Ze opened the long box, and sunlight shone into it, but the sunlight fell on the sword and seemed to be swallowed up, giving it a dark luster.

During the day, it is seen as a shadow but not as light; at night, it is seen as light but not as form. When it touches an object, it passes by swiftly and disappears as soon as it passes, so that one feels its speed without bloodshed. This is called the Night Silk.

The predominantly black color scheme exudes mystery and profundity. The blade is long and slender, with a cross-shaped guard. The spine and blade are both black, while the edge is as bright as snow.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that this is a good sword.

only······

"I haven't taken the exam yet," Bai Ze said, feeling a bit annoyed.

The sword is good, but it's a pity that Bai Ze hasn't obtained his military license yet. If he takes this on the train, he might get detained along with the sword.

"It's alright, I'll take care of it for you."

The old principal closed the box, waved his hand, and said, "Once you finish the competition, the certificate will probably be issued directly. Let's go, to Jiujiang."

······
······
[Departed.]

The woman with long, flowing hair looked at the projected illusory text and murmured, "Then, it's about time Mu Yaoguang appeared."

She gently pressed her hand, and the projected text disappeared. Countless nanounits appeared beside her, coalescing into shape.

Although it's a baby cup, it's at least a nationally recognized baby cup.

In addition to playing the game, it's also necessary to introduce some background information that can be used later, such as the conflict between the Slug Autonomous Region and the Federation, and some key figures.
