Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

The Hall of the Wise and Brave.

Suddenly, a group of people rushed in. They looked young, just like Xiao Weiqing and his group. I roughly estimate that there were more than a hundred of them.

The leader was a young man dressed in a uniform with the words "Luojiang" written in classical Chinese on his chest.

"Ling Yun, I've already told you about the seating arrangement. The rest is up to you to choose. Don't bring shame to Luohe City."

The young man then went upstairs to the main control room.

Upon reaching the upper floor, the young man cupped his hands in greeting to Jiang Peng and the other two, saying, "Third year, Central Academy, Zhou Zhen."

Jiang Peng nodded in response, "Have a seat. How's the quality of the new trainees at Luohe this year?"

"Well, it's alright. I kept one level 4 'skill' and 26 level 3 extraordinary talents. Overall, it's not much different from last year."

Jiang Peng nodded. Cities like Anqiu and Luohe, which are far from Luojiang Academy, only have one or two Level 4 talents each year. It's not surprising that there aren't any. The closer you are to Luojiang Prefecture, the more people there are who acquire high-level extraordinary talents.

The reason is simple: a large population.

More than half of the students from Luojiang Prefecture enter Luojiang Academy each year because Luojiang Prefecture is large enough and has a large enough population.

In addition, there are several adjacent subordinate cities, which are actually districts under the prefectural city. These areas combined account for half of the total population of Luojiang Prefecture.

The combined population of the remaining 30 cities is still less than that of the capital city.

"You're going to Anqiu City, right? How's it going?"

Wang Fu said, "Three level 4 students have emerged."

"Oh?"

Zhou Zhen asked in surprise, "Anqiu City has a smaller population than Luohe City, how come so many outstanding extraordinary talents have emerged this year?"

Which ones?

Zhou Zhen stared at the screen and asked.

Jiang Peng cursed, "What's the use? Both Level 4s were snatched away by the Azure Dragon Academy."

Zhou Zhen sighed slightly, "It's a pity that the Azure Dragon Academy is truly incompetent."

"Oh, it's time to make a move," Wang Fu laughed, looking on with amusement.

Upon hearing this, the group immediately turned their attention to the monitor screen, where the two groups of people were already approaching each other.

Here.

When the people from Luohe City entered the hall and saw that there were only 50 people from Anqiu City, less than half of their own, they felt much more at ease.

The young man who was in the lead stepped forward.

He was sizing up the people of Anqiu City.

Li Fangnan was immediately displeased.

"What are you looking at?"

The young man instinctively replied, "What are you looking at!"

"Hey, I have such a bad temper!"

Li Fangnan stood up and reached out his hand to Xiao Weiqing.

"Give me my knife!"

Xiao Weiqing frowned slightly and stared at Li Fangnan sideways.

Li Fangnan turned his head and met Xiao Weiqing's gaze, then shrank back.

"Hehe, sorry, I got a little too into character."

He then went to the shelf and took a wooden ox-tail knife.

Swish, swish~

He performed two standard sword flourishes.

"Anqiu City, Li Fangnan, Level 3 'Technical'".

Upon seeing this, the young man clenched his fists and assumed a fighting stance.

"Luohe City, Fang Lingyun, Level 4 'Skill'."

Judging from this stance, it must be a skill involving legwork.

Li Fangnan was taken aback. He put away the wooden sword, cupped his hands in greeting, put the sword back in its original place, and then sat down calmly, as if nothing had happened.

"Um... Qin Sheng, you're only at level 4 'skill', you can't handle him, so you should go."

Qin Sheng sighed; this team was really difficult to lead.

He then stood up and said, "How about best two out of three?"

"Why should we, Brother Yun? We're not doing this! There are more of us, they should give way to us. If they don't like it, we'll beat them up."

Li Fangnan became displeased again, "Kid, what's your extraordinary talent, and what level is it?"

"Level 3 'Skill', what's wrong?"

"Come out here if you dare, or I'll beat you until you need to find your father."

The two sides immediately started exchanging words.

Fang Lingyun shook his head, "The numbers are unequal, we're at a disadvantage. If all of us attack at once, you're no match for us."

Qin Sheng replied, "You should know that the closer you get to the center of Luojiang Prefecture, the more people there are. In other words, the people in the two cities behind it are definitely more than you."

"What if they also come by the number of people?"

Fang Lingyun remained silent.

Qin Sheng then said, "How about this, there are a hundred sofas in total. Best two out of three. If one side loses all three, then there's nothing more to say. Go to the back."

"If you have only one win, you can take 40 cards; if I have only one win, I can take 20 cards."

"how?"

Fang Lingyun thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

The two returned to their respective camps.

Qin Sheng said, "Please recommend your level 3 'skills' and 'weapons'."

"Shouldn't it be a level 3 'spell'?"

Zhu Dong shook his head, "Everyone has only just opened their Divine Palace, and the spiritual energy content is scarce. 'Techniques' won't be of much use right now. At this time, we still need to rely on fists, feet, and weapons."

Then Zhu Dong looked at Wei Lan. He found it strange that this girl was surrounded by several people from Linhai County, but she hadn't said much, only occasionally talking to Xiao Weiqing. However, her temperament and confidence seemed genuine.

"Excuse me, student, your..."

"She's out of the running, I'll go for it," Xiao Weiqing interrupted.

Someone said, "Xiao Weiqing, you're also a strategist, aren't you?"

Xiao Weiqing nodded, "Yes, but I also know some weapon skills, and my technique is alright, below level 4, it's not a big problem."

"Okay, then it's me, Xiao Weiqing."

"besides......"

One person stood up from behind, "Count me in, I'm a level 3 'weapon', a sword, and I know a little about swordsmanship."

"He Wu, you've been practicing swordsmanship since you were a child, so you're not just someone who knows a little bit about it."

Qin Sheng's eyes lit up. "Okay, it'll be just the three of us."

"Of course, if the three of us lose, I hope you won't mind. If we only win one game, I won't take the seat on the sofa."

"Qin Sheng, what are you saying? At worst, we can go to Luojiang Prefecture hungry today and save room for a good meal there."

"That's right, Qin Sheng, take them down."

Both parties have finalized their choices.

Qin Sheng took the lead and grabbed a long stick.

"Qin Sheng, Level 4 'Weapon'"

Fang Lingyun was the one fighting on the opposite side.

"Fang Lingyun, Level 4, 'Skill'"

The two got into fighting stances, and the battle was about to begin.

"Hey? Isn't Qin Sheng armed with a gun? Why is he carrying a stick?" Li Fangnan asked.

Zhu Dong said, "A month for a stick, a year for a knife, a lifetime for a gun."

"I only acquired extraordinary talent yesterday, how could I have learned it so quickly, especially with a level 4 gun?"

That makes sense.

Off the field.

Qin Sheng kicked the stick with his left foot, flipped it over, twirled it with one hand, and then, with the tip of the stick on the bottom, quickly rushed towards Fang Lingyun.

Seeing this, Fang Lingyun took a step back with his right foot, seemingly to retreat and create distance, but unexpectedly, he suddenly exerted force with his right foot and quickly attacked Qin Sheng.

"drink!"

Undeterred, Qin Sheng roared and, wielding his staff with both hands, unleashed a powerful downward strike, like Mount Tai pressing down.

Fang Lingyun sidestepped, narrowly dodging the blow at an odd angle. Everyone could see the long stick sweep across Fang Lingyun's face, causing the muscles on his face to twitch.

The first strike missed.

Fang Lingyun stepped onto the long staff, leaped into the air, and swept his leg towards Qin Sheng.

Qin Sheng seemed to have been prepared, and parried with his staff.

Fang Lingyun changed his stance and quickly closed in, his elbow close to Qin Sheng's.

Qin Sheng stepped aside and passed Fang Lingyun, creating some distance between them.

But the next second, Qin Sheng, with his waist and stance in perfect harmony, suddenly turned and thrust out.

The long stick stopped at Fang Lingyun's chest.

What a brilliant counterattack!

In the blink of an eye, the outcome was decided.

Inside the main control room.

"good."

Jiang Peng and others praised it.

Whether it was Qin Sheng using a stick as a spear, or Fang Lingyun's initial strategy of retreating to advance and waiting for an opportunity to get close, both were commendable.

Zhou Zhen shook his head, "Fang Lingyun has too little spiritual energy, otherwise he could easily block the spear."

Wang Fu laughed and said, "You can't calculate it that way. Qin Sheng is the same; he doesn't have much spiritual energy. If you calculate it that way, the magic cultivators are the ones who are at the biggest disadvantage now."

"Too."

This is the end.

The first match is over.
