Hunting God Era

Chapter 146 First-rate Characteristics (4k)

The provincial martial arts competition has always been a popular event. After the top 32 are determined by the competition among 48 college students, they will be regrouped for further competition.

This time, they were divided into four groups.

The competition will last for three days in total. Today, the top 16 will be determined, tomorrow the top 8 will be determined, and the competition will be completed in one go the day after tomorrow.

As for today's round of 16, Li Ye didn't play a single match.

Gu Yang was very lucky this time. Yang Jie won when Gu Yang was in the 32nd round of the 48-way battle. If Gu Yang wins, Fu Chuxue, who will be the second to appear, will be able to win everything.

The same applies to the Thirty-Two Decisions and the Sixteenth Decision.

Although he had only mastered the exquisite martial arts of the half-breakthrough stage, he had broken through to the Seven Dragon Gate earlier than he had expected, thanks to his recent good nutrition.

This stage is comparable to the Six Dragon Gates, a pure progression route.

Although the provincial martial arts competition is at a higher level, it is essentially about the top three in each city, so it won't be that much higher. People like Yang Jie, except for a few schools, are the backbone of any school.

Yang Jie encountered a player from Shouchun No. 4 Middle School, who was only a sixth-grade student and no match for him.

If he wins, Fu Chuxue will naturally win everything.

She encountered the opposing team's main force, a student from the Nine Dragons Sect, ranked thirty-first in the province, a martial artist who followed the Qi Meridian Gate path.

From a student's perspective, he was very capable, but unfortunately, he encountered different people and was still defeated with a single blow.

Fu Chuxue's several appearances drew everyone's attention to this place. In the live streams that Li Ye watched, whenever she appeared, the camera would turn to her.

Even after the round of 16 was over, Fu Chuxue had already earned the title of "Frost Star Goddess" online, and her popularity remained high.

After the entire competition, it was already afternoon. Just like how No. 14 Middle School was defeated with a single palm strike, the same was true for the other schools Yao Ledan had mentioned earlier.

The students from Yangcheng No. 1 Middle School were the same; when they fought, they were similar to Fu Chuxue, basically killing her in one move.

But apart from them, the battles at other schools were back and forth.

He leaped forward, displaying his superb lightness skill, jumping four or five meters high, and soaring out with the agility of a feather.

Over there, weapons clashed, spears and halberds clashed, and swords flashed, creating a rare and exhilarating scene.

Its body is as solid as black iron, impervious to swords and spears, firmly rooted like a fortified city.

The breath there was long and deep, the exhalation sharp as a sword, and the force that struck out was heavy as a thousand pounds.

For ordinary people, the level they can access is only the fourth or fifth level of the Dragon Gate; they can't see anyone above that level making a move.

The provincial martial arts competition really opened their eyes.

As soon as the martial arts competition ended and everyone was preparing to leave, a group of people on the viewing platform rushed straight towards the fourteen directions.

"Student Fu, please wait a moment."

The four admissions officers smiled broadly, and one of them spoke first: "I am an admissions officer from Shushan Martial Arts University. I just spoke with your father and he said that you chose this university independently. Would you be interested in considering our Shushan Martial Arts University?"

"Judging from your style, you mostly use palm techniques, but everyone needs to use weapons. Our Shu Mountain Martial Arts School is best at swordsmanship. If you enroll, we will guarantee that you can condense the true seed of sword intent in the Human Origin Realm when you reach the Third Realm. In the Earth Origin Realm, you can mainly use the Five Elements Image Seed, whichever you choose. Even in the Heaven Origin Realm, we can provide the seed of the technique. If you are not satisfied, we also have a channel for the seed of the technique."

These words were originally meant to be spoken in private, but since the other party was Fu Yan's daughter, she couldn't be completely ignorant about the cultivation of the three realms. In order not to be beaten to it, she simply spoke directly.

"Come on, you guys are so stingy with your martial arts. Fu, our Donghai Divine Martial Arts is the most unique in the three realms. As long as you come, we will provide you with the most suitable cultivation method for breaking through to the realm. You can also choose the seeds for the three realms. We have a special dojo for True Seeds, and we have our own Water, Fire, Wind and Thunder Seeds. We can also obtain other types of Seeds for you through our channels."

"If we can get to Tianyuan, our conditions will be the same as those for Douwu, and we will do our best to help you choose the most suitable magic seed."

The only woman in the admissions office spoke up: "Stop arguing, everyone. Kunlun Holy Martial Arts is clearly the most suitable. We are the ones who are known for our fists and feet. Fu, as long as you come, we will tailor the best route for you from breaking through to opening up the realm."

"While we are not as wealthy as Shenwu in terms of seeds, we are more specialized, especially in the 'Frost' and 'Mountain' paths. I also think your style of doing things is well-suited to our cultivation path. Even for Dharma seeds, we have special supply channels!"

"Central Tianwu."

They had just finished talking at once when Fu Chuxue suddenly spoke up.

This surprised the last admissions officer. "I haven't even mentioned our unique features and qualifications yet."

"Let's choose this one," Fu Chuxue said.

“Student Fu, please reconsider. Zhongshu Tianwu is a comprehensive university, but it doesn’t have the same strengths as us. Besides, there are all sorts of shady characters in the capital, and it’s not as pure as ours.”

"I won't accept that. What do you mean by 'many monsters and demons'? Our Central Heavenly Martial Sect is the most balanced."

The Tianwu admissions officer glared at the Shenwu admissions officer who had spoken.

"What balance or not? You all know what happened back then. Who knows if another accident will happen?" Teacher Shengwu said sarcastically.

"you"

"Alright, alright, everyone, we're still in the stadium, let's talk about this privately."

Fu Yan quickly laughed and said, "There are so many talented students. Don't keep staring at my daughter. It's not a good influence here."

The group immediately fell silent and nodded. The admissions officer from Kunlun Holy Martial Arts said, "Student Fu, please think it over carefully. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me anytime. Or, tonight, we can have a meal together, and I'll explain it to you in detail."

Jianghuai Province is a top-tier province, and those that deserve their attention have already taken action; they didn't even need to wait for the provincial martial arts competition.

They came here to see if there were any new promising talents.

People like Yang Jie, whose exquisite martial arts skills are from the Seven Dragons Sect, are not within their scope of competition. He is a pillar of the academy, but not a genius. If he wants to apply to their top-tier school, he needs to take the college entrance examination in the Demon Realm.

But Fu Chuxue is different. As Fu Yan's daughter, she received guidance in martial arts from a very young age.

According to Fu Yan, they should still take the three-stage route. The strength of the Eight Dragons Gate alone is enough to make them fight over it.

"Young man, you have been recommended by the leaders and the principal. May I ask what your cultivation level is?"

"Yes, Chuang, we don't know you very well yet. We heard that you've also set your sights on our top universities. Why don't you tell us about yourself first?"

The "reckless student" mentioned by the leaders and principal seems to be here too, but he hasn't made a move.

It looks pretty ordinary.

But being recommended by a leader must mean they are outstanding in some aspects.

Li Ye was chatting with Deng Hao and Jia Dong, planning to find a place to have dinner together that evening, when he noticed their gazes. He turned around and saw that all four admissions officers were looking at him.

He pointed to himself, stunned, and said, "Me? My surname isn't Chuang."

The group paused for a moment, about to say something, when Fu Yan stepped forward first, smiling and saying, "Li Liye, I really didn't expect that you and my daughter are classmates. What a coincidence! Can we chat?"

He came here first to find his daughter, and secondly, to find Li Ye.

“Okay, I happen to have something to talk to you about. You don’t mind bringing a few more, do you?” Li Ye looked at his close classmates.

"This"

"It's alright, they all understand."

"Alright, Director Li, there's no reason not to speak up when you give the order."

Fu Yan smiled at Deng Hao and the others and said, "Classmates, would you like to grab a bite to eat sometime?"

"Okay!"

Yao Ledan jumped up excitedly, "Fu Wuren, can I get your autograph? I really like you!"

Fu Yan smiled and agreed, then pulled out a well-looking book from his pocket, signed his name with a flourish, and handed it to Yao Ledan. It turned out to be a novel, an autobiography.

This guy certainly has a lot of work to do.

"Teachers, if you're not too busy, please join us. We can chat and I can tell you about the differences between schools for my daughter."

Fu Yan then spoke to the admissions officers.

The four exchanged glances and nodded, but had already taken out their phones to look up information.

I didn't pay much attention before. After all, they have high standards and don't just investigate anyone who recommends them. I was planning to check it out tonight, but now Fu Yan's attitude towards that boy is very strange.

Director Li?

What kind of situation?

At this age, it's obvious that there are only two positions available that I could get into.

He was promoted exceptionally by the Security Bureau, but it's impossible for him to become the director at this age.

Disinfection Bureau
At this age, he's the head of the disinfection bureau?
At least two realms!

Moreover, Fu Yan seemed quite ingratiating.
That's not all there is to it.

We need the information now!
On the other side, young Su Ao saw four admissions officers surrounding Fu Chuxue and secretly clenched his fists.

He participated in the martial arts competition this time, but he didn't use his full strength.

"Just wait, once I advance to the finals and defeat the top-ranked player in the province, all eyes will be on me!"

The moment is now for a young person to make a name for themselves!

……

At a high-end hotel in Yangcheng, Fu Yan led his men to a private room.

"Please have a seat, Director Li. Let's talk in private."

He gestured for Li Ye to go to the tea room inside. After the two of them went in together, he sat down at the tea table, brewed a cup of tea, and poured one for Li Ye.

“I know Fu Wu very well,” Li Ye said with a smile.

"The owner here is a good friend of mine, and I often come here to eat."

Fu Yan smiled, then his expression turned serious. "Director Li, I need to explain Chen Hualong's matter to you. I'm not very clear about his failure to report what he knew about in the Demon Realm. I was just hired to do things. The Chen family agreed to lend him the Seed-Bearing Sword so I could cultivate with him, and I agreed to help him keep an eye on the mine's security. I've never been inside."

"You know, in your eyes, I'm the mercenary type; I take any job that comes my way."

The practice of cultivating the Kaiyuan realm also requires the testimony of other similar seeds.

Although the Human Rank doesn't have a seed like a fiefdom, it still possesses a true seed aura and can be used as a means of inheritance and a catalyst.

If one wishes to learn from Chen Hualong's "penetration" and Pan Zhengyang's "bloodthirst," and borrow their most proficient weapons, one can gain insight into their techniques and use them as examples for mutual cultivation.

However, this is also a drawback for those who adopt it.

It's like lending out the seed; during that time, you can't cultivate. You can only retrieve the seed when the designated time arrives.

“If it were just this matter, there would be no need to explain it to me. If it were really going to cause you trouble, I would have contacted you already.”

Li Ye said, "I'm quite curious about you, mercenary. What's the benefit of wandering around like this?"

He looked at Fu Yan, who was eager to explain, and sighed inwardly.

Last year, his whole family saw the famous martial artist Fu Yan on TV. At that time, they felt that he was a towering figure and the Three Realms were a myth to them.

When he met the person this year, they had to come over specifically to explain things to him.

It's all about timing and fate; the world of martial arts is truly wondrous.

Upon hearing that it was none of his business, Fu Yan relaxed.

He doesn't care about anything else.

However, he felt it necessary to explain the initial disinfecting move, especially regarding a genius like Li Ye who could directly kill Chen Hualong.

Even if you stand upright and are certain you have a clear conscience, it's still not pleasant to be targeted by someone with such a murderous nature.

"For someone like you, Director Li, I'll just get straight to the point. There's no point in hiding anything."

Fu Yan said, "I'm being hired, not just on a real level. Do you know about the Primordial Demon Realm?"

Li Ye was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

"Everything I've done is actually for the purpose of staying in the Primordial Demon Realm. That's the place where martial artists of the third realm and above should be."

Fu Yan said, "Compared to joining a company or entering a department, these things require energy in reality, which actually affects cultivation quite a bit."

"Isn't that place a battlefield? It must be chaotic."

Li Ye asked, "You seem quite content with yourself. Are you employed there? Do you work for us too?"

"Although Shenzhou is strong, it doesn't have much power that can be invested in the Primordial Realm. Most of it is in the Great Demon Realm. The Small Demon Realm still needs people like us."

Fu Yan said, "As for the others, they're just things I do incidentally. They're also for building connections and for my cultivation. Overall, it's no worse than running a company, and it's more flexible."

This is also a path, but very few people do it in the Three Realms.

Fu Yan was the first person he had ever seen who was so haphazard and inconsistent.

Li Ye nodded. "If it's just this matter, then don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble. Speaking of which, I've been hearing about your reputation as a famous martial artist before I entered the martial arts world, and for a while I even regarded you as a role model."

"You flatter me, Director Li."

Fu Yan laughed and said, "I've heard the rumors about you too. You came up from the preparatory course, which is better than me. I didn't have the opportunity to study preparatory courses back then, which delayed me for many years."

He paused for a moment, then said, "I have another favor to ask. I saw my daughter talking to you in the stadium."

“In my early years, I was busy improving myself and neglected to discipline her, which resulted in a defect in her personality. She only cared about martial arts and didn’t understand human relationships. Sometimes she spoke very harshly and seemed unapproachable. There were very few people she could talk to.”

“Sometimes I worry about things, but seeing her talk to you this time really surprised me. If you don’t mind, you can chat more.”

"I'm a man, and your daughter is so beautiful, you're asking me to interact with her more? Are you really that comfortable with that?"

Li Ye looked at him and said, "And what you're saying sounds a bit like you're making your final arrangements. It's not a good omen."

Fu Yan shook his head with a wry smile: "No martial artist can be at peace unless they don't want to improve anymore. I still want to continue improving, so there's no other way. Although it may seem abrupt to say this now, I mean it sincerely."

“I don’t mind. If possible, it could even add to the combat strength of my extermination bureau,” Li Ye said.

"That would be perfect." Fu Yan smiled upon hearing this, "A well-established elimination bureau is safe inside."

something wrong.

Li Ye narrowed his eyes slightly.

It's not that he wasn't telling the truth, he was just hiding something.
