Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

A figure appeared on the central arena.

Wearing a black vest, baggy shorts, and flip-flops, it was Ning Xing.

A loud voice rang out, "Fellow new students of the Class of 2122, after half a month, we've all gathered together again. Let's put them to the test and let the competition begin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Xing disappeared.

Then figures appeared on nine arenas, two on each arena, all of them students from the lower academy.

A mechanical announcement sounded.

"start!"

"Ding!~"

"Clang!~~"

The sound of weapons clashing immediately rang out from the arena, and spells were cast from time to time.

Xiao Weiqing watched intently, also wanting to know what level everyone would be at a month after their awakening.

The students on the stage all possessed Level 3 extraordinary talent, which was quite common at Luojiang Academy, but if they were placed in an extraordinary university outside, they would definitely be top-tier geniuses.

These trainees showed no mercy, doing everything in their power and using their strengths to defeat their opponents as quickly as possible.

however.

Five minutes later, the first person to be defeated appeared.

It's arena number 5.

A girl was knocked off the stage, her pretty face flushed. She stomped her foot and disappeared back into the audience. Her match was over, and her opponent, following closely behind, also vanished.

Two more figures appeared on arena number 5, and without a word, the two instantly engaged in battle.

Xiao Weiqing watched for half an hour before losing interest.

How so?

These students with Level 3 extraordinary talents have not yet reached the Divine Palace stage, and the vast majority still rely on their leg skills or weapons.

After fighting for half a day, there was still no result.

He was getting a little bored; these people were a piece of cake for him.

Inside the spacious private room.

The deans of Ningxing and the three colleges, along with the teachers from each college, watched the game together.

Ning Xing, still smoking a cigar, said loudly, "This year's new students are not bad, they're quite presentable, unlike last year, when they were all ugly and deformed."

Zhong Wen laughed and said, "Principal Ning, don't let Principal Dong hear you say that."

Ning Xing laughed heartily, "So what if he heard it? What can he do? Look at his pathetic state. How many generations has he been in? How many decent experts has he ever trained?"

"If you're going to try to become a school principal, you should at least understand the philosophy of teaching first."

The teachers smiled knowingly.

Their Principal Ning is practically a hands-off teacher, but he's incredibly lucky. Every year he encounters promising students, and some of the previous students even achieved a second awakening and broke through to the fifth realm before graduation.

"Alright, you guys keep an eye on things for now. I'm going out now, I'll come back this afternoon."

After saying that, he disappeared.

Everyone shook their heads helplessly.

At this time.

Zhong Wen spoke up, "Qian Yi, I heard you took on an apprentice?"

"Mm," Qian Yi replied.

"You haven't taken on any students in a long time, have you? What kind of genius made you take on a student so early?"

Qian Yi parted her red lips slightly, "I've taken a liking to her. Her name is Wei Lan, her mental strength is over level 15, and she follows the path of spiritual cultivation."

"Wow, it's already at level 15?" a teacher exclaimed.

Qian Yi laughed and said, "That was last month. Now it's almost level 17."

Zhong Wen nodded, "That's really impressive."

Then, as if remembering something, she said, "Surname Wei? Could it be?"

Qian Yi nodded.

Sun Bing, who was standing to the side, said, "The Wei family of Xinchang Prefecture has awakened their pupil technique."

"good."

"However, the Wei family's pupil technique bloodline has become increasingly diluted in recent years. I wonder if Wei Lan will be able to awaken it a second time?"

Three hours.

It's gone in the blink of an eye.

After six or seven rounds of competition, a total of 156 students were selected from the Middle Academy and the Lower Academy, most of whom were students with Level 4 extraordinary talents.

There are very few at level 3, less than 20.

In the afternoon, these students will compete against one hundred students from the Upper Academy, showcasing their knowledge and skills.

……

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The front row of the spectator area was packed with people.

The students from the Middle and Lower Courts also wanted to see the strength of the Upper Court and know how big the gap was between them. Some of them came specifically to see Xiao Weiqing.

He's ranked in the top 20 of the ladder with a 100% win rate and has defeated a level 6 extraordinary talent.

These results, in every aspect, were astonishing to them, and now they finally had the opportunity to see them for themselves.

Everyone is eagerly anticipating this.

A group of teachers were also very interested in this, as the students of the Upper Academy were the face of their Luojiang Academy.

Inside the private room.

Ning Xing was still dressed in his usual down-to-earth style, with a cigar in his mouth, surrounded by three deans and a dozen or so teachers.

Moreover, there are more than twenty teachers, all of whom are currently enrolled in the school and are willing to recruit students.

I came to watch the match to get a feel for the students' abilities.

"start!"

The mechanical announcements echoed throughout the square.

Xiao Weiqing looked at his bracelet.

"Ring 6, opponent Wang Ping, level 4, 'Weapon'."

Click to accept.

Xiao Weiqing appeared on stage number 6.

Opposite him was another young man, wielding a bull-tail knife.

Unlike Xiao Weiqing's composure, Wang Ping felt like he'd been screwed over by a husky.

"How did we end up encountering this great demon king?"

Take a deep breath.

Wang Ping cupped his hands and said, "Great Demon King, please enlighten me."

Xiao Weiqing: "?"

"No, Brother Qing, please give me your guidance." Wang Ping quickly corrected himself.

Xiao Weiqing nodded, and the Crimson Dragon was drawn from its sheath. "Come on."

Without wasting words, Wang Ping swung his knife at the enemy.

On stage number 6, Xiao Weiqing's appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention.

They were all eagerly anticipating Xiao Weiqing's move.

Ning Xing and the others were the same. These teachers were usually very busy and had only heard of Xiao Weiqing's name. Apart from a few of the instructors, none of them had ever seen Xiao Weiqing.

Only Zhao Jia knew Xiao Weiqing's approximate strength, but only in terms of swordsmanship.

"Not bad, the swordsmanship is concise, showing solid fundamentals." Ning Xing nodded. "Zhao Jia, did you give Xiao Weiqing some extra training?"

Upon hearing Ning Xing's question, Zhao Jia smiled and said, "After teaching him defensive techniques for more than half a month, he has a talent for close combat."

"Oh? To have such close combat skills in just half a month, that's rare. What about his extraordinary talent?"

Li Ding replied, "He hasn't shown much since his battle with Qin Tian, ​​but he's made it into the top 20 of the Heavenly Ladder, so he must be pretty good. His Divine Palace is also already at its peak."

Sun Bing also said, "Xiao Weiqing's extraordinary talent is indeed extraordinary. His flames are not ordinary fire; they can burn spiritual energy and are not extinguished by water."

Ning Xing nodded. After all, it was a genuine skill, unique; it would be abnormal if it weren't special.

Arena number 6.

The two had been exchanging blows for several minutes, with Wang Ping on the offensive and Xiao Weiqing on the defensive.

A few minutes passed.

Wang Wu didn't even touch Xiao Weiqing's clothes, which greatly discouraged him.

"Is this what a true genius is?"

Wang Ping's weapon is a level 4 Chaotic Wind Blade. Although he didn't practice swordsmanship from a young age, after more than half a month of training, he considers himself to have achieved a minor level of mastery in swordsmanship.

He could squeeze into the top 1 in the ladder, but Xiao Weiqing was holding a knife and his defense alone rendered him helpless.

"You're a so-called 'Master of Arts'?"

"This makes me look weak," Wang Wu roared inwardly.

next moment.

Wang Wu's body was filled with a surge of spiritual energy, stirring up gusts of wind and waves.

"Whirlwind Blade!"

"when!"

"when!"

"when!"

Three stabs in a row.

However, he still couldn't break through Xiao Weiqing's defense. Instead, he was exhausted and panting heavily, his spiritual energy nearly depleted.

Wang Ping stood still, looking bewildered, filled with confusion and resentment, before disappearing from the arena.

"Give up?"

Xiao Weiqing was taken aback. He glanced at his bracelet; the result was already in—his opponent had conceded, and he had advanced to the next round. In a flash, he returned to the audience seats.

Wei Lan's battle was already over; he was eliminated less than 10 seconds after entering the arena.

"Brother Qing is amazing. He defeated a student with a level 4 extraordinary talent with just his swordsmanship."

Xiao Weiqing shook his head. "He admitted defeat himself."

"That's because you made me angry," Zhuang Yu said irritably.

Zhuang Yu sat diagonally behind him, arms crossed over his chest, with a sword between them.

"It can't be that bad. It was just a friendly sparring session. I practiced with him, he should be thanking me." Xiao Weiqing felt a little wronged.

"Hmph, if you were a martial arts practitioner, of course there would be no problem, but you are a magic practitioner. Doing this will make your opponent think that you are playing with him, and may even make him feel that his extraordinary talent is useless and make him lack confidence."

"Zhuang Yu, that's slander! You're not him, how do you know what he's thinking?" Xiao Weiqing retorted.

"Hmph!~"

Zhuang Yu remained silent and glared at Xiao Weiqing.

Three minutes later.

Xiao Weiqing will face his second opponent.

A girl.

This time, Xiao Weiqing learned from his previous experience.

After the match began.

He killed the girl with a single Fire Owl attack.

The girl looked horrified when she saw the large hole in her chest, and immediately burst into tears of grievance.

Fortunately, he disappeared immediately, returned to the audience, and his physical condition returned to normal.

The girl touched her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness, everything's still there."

Then the condemnation began.

"That Xiao Weiqing has no sense of chivalry or tenderness towards women. He's despicable."

Xiao Weiqing returned to the audience seats.

"Xiao Weiqing, you went too far. I saw that girl seemed to be crying," Fei Xiaobao said.

Zhuang Yu also said, "Xiao Weiqing, you really went too far. You should at least let him show his skills. The teachers are all watching."

Xiao Weiqing: "..."

"Damn it, you've said both the nice and the mean. You two better pray you don't run into me."

Xiao Weiqing secretly decided that if he encountered these two people, he would definitely leave them with a deep impression.

The opponents in the next two rounds were not weak. During the battles, I would let them make a move and then defeat them with lightning speed.

The competition has reached the 5th round.

"Arena No. 6, opponent Fei Xiaobao, level 5, 'Skill'."

Xiao Weiqing smiled.

"Damn it! We're done for."

Fei Xiaobao exclaimed in surprise, looking constipated.

"Fei Xiaobao, I'm waiting for you."

Xiao Weiqing disappeared and reappeared on arena number 6.

Zhuang Yu patted Fei Xiaobao on the shoulder, "Don't be a coward, Fatty, beat him to a pulp."

"Get lost!"

Fei Xiaobao said irritably, and his figure disappeared, reappearing at arena number 6.
