Full-Time Martial Saint

The duel between Chen Cong and Zhou Hao was like a gem. Although the subsequent draw duels were equally exciting, with Luo Yunfeng, Ning Yuhang, and others also showing remarkable strength, the brilliant performances of the two ahead naturally overshadowed the remaining duels.

The preliminary test lasted until 5:30 p.m.

Overall, the top-performing class still has a slight edge.

After the test, school leaders gave a brief summary and encouragement. Some guests on the stage also took the opportunity to send their assistants to deliver invitations to some students they liked, in order to get closer to them in advance.

At six o'clock, outside the martial arts hall, Chen Congzheng stood quietly in the setting sun waiting for Ning Yuhang and the others when Xu Baiwei suddenly walked quickly over from the side.

Didn't you read the message I sent you?

She immediately began to question him.

Chen Cong paused for a moment before hurriedly turning on his communication bracelet.

"Sorry, I'm turning off my phone to avoid disturbing you."

Xu Baiwei clenched her fist, but didn't say anything more.

Changing the subject abruptly, she asked, "Qingshan Martial Arts Academy is looking for you?"

Chen Cong was about to nod when he suddenly frowned and looked at her, asking, "Did you find the Green Mountain Martial Arts Academy?"

In the morning, when Zhang Kui denied the existence of the invitation, he did have his doubts about Xu Baiwei.

At the time, I just felt that the Martial Peak Hall was behind the Xu family, and if Xu Baiwei was related to this matter, then it should be the Martial Peak Hall that came to find me, not the Green Mountain Martial Academy.

But now that she has suddenly brought this up, Chen Cong can't help but suspect that she is involved.

Xu Baiwei nodded frankly: "After you left the Tianwu Training Hall the day before yesterday, I accidentally saw a video of you testing your martial arts skills in the training room next door."

Upon hearing this, Chen Cong's gaze sharpened slightly, and his voice suddenly turned much colder as he asked, "So, you took it upon yourself to tell Qingshan Martial Academy about my affairs?"

Meeting his gaze, Xu Baiwei paused for a moment, a hint of grievance suddenly appearing in her eyes.

"I……"

She wanted to explain something, but when she caught a glimpse of Ning Yuhang and his group excitedly walking out of the martial arts hall, she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

"I'm sorry." All her unspoken words were condensed into an apology. Xu Baiwei didn't say anything more, and turned away indifferently.

Watching her retreating figure, Chen Cong pondered for a moment, then gently shook his head.

"Chen Cong!"

"Let's go eat!"

Huang Changhu excitedly put his arm around his shoulder as soon as he arrived.

He was lucky in this draw, drawing a student of average or below-average ability from the top class. With Chen's guidance over the past two days, he finally managed to win, and he was overjoyed.

Seeing the joy on everyone's faces, Chen Cong suppressed his thoughts and nodded, saying, "Let's go eat. We'll meet at our usual spot afterward."

The group hurried towards the cafeteria in high spirits, but Ning Yuhang deliberately slowed down. After Huang Changhu and the others had gone some distance, he hesitated for a moment before whispering, "You and Xu Baiwei just now..."

Chen Cong gently shook his head without saying a word.

Seeing this, Ning Yuhang thought for a moment and then said, "That young lady is known in the industry for her strange temper, so please don't mind her."

The upper class has its own social circle. The Ning family is also a well-established family in Xiangcheng. He and Xu Baiwei are the same age and have known each other since childhood, so he naturally understands Xu Baiwei's temperament very well.

"Mind?" Chen Cong smiled faintly at him, sighed softly, and didn't say anything more.

He remained clear-headed, knowing that his connection with Xu Baiwei was solely due to their mutual exploitation.

If you don't have a boxing technique that has reached a minor level of mastery, how can you even start a conversation with someone?

Because he's handsome?

"Let's go eat, we still have boxing practice later."

Today's preliminary test took up a lot of time. After giving pointers to the others, he still needs to go to the Divine Evolution Arena to continue his pursuit of the title of [Black Stone Trialist].

Ning Yuhang nodded and didn't say anything more.

On the way, Chen took a moment to check his bracelet and saw two unread messages.

He opened it and saw that, apart from Xu Baiwei's message, the other one was from Karapti Hey, inviting him to spar in the virtual world at 8 p.m.

Chen thought for a moment and immediately replied, "I have something to do today, eight o'clock is too early, how about eight-thirty?"

Shortly after the message was sent, Hey replied briefly: "Okay."

After dinner, the group gathered again at the small playground.

Among the six, Zhao Cheng and Yang Can had consistently ranked in the middle in terms of martial arts skills and were not selected for the preliminary test. After hearing Huang Changhu and Hou Long recount the details of the preliminary test during the day, the two were extremely excited.

After the initial excitement, Chen Cong noticed the disappointment in their eyes.

He walked slowly to the two of them, smiled faintly, and said, "Study hard and work hard, and I guarantee you two will be able to participate in next month's placement test."

"Really!?" Yang Can asked excitedly.

Chen Cong nodded seriously.

As the saying goes, "a poor student is easy to tutor," but right now, he really doesn't have much confidence in helping Ning Yuhang and Lin Xiao raise their boxing skills from the threshold of minor mastery to the true minor mastery level in a short period of time, since he himself is only at the minor mastery level now.

However, he was fairly confident in helping Zhao Cheng and Yang Can advance from the lower level of the initial stage to the higher level.

This is like a poor student who usually can't even pass a test. If someone teaches him and he is willing to learn, it is actually easy for him to improve to 60 points. But if you change to a student who usually scores 80 or 90 points, it would be very difficult to improve him to a perfect score in a short period of time.

With Chen Cong's assurance, Zhao Cheng and Yang Can took the guidance very seriously this time.

Time quickly came to eight o'clock in the evening. After finishing his instructions to the group, Chen Cong hurriedly returned to his dormitory, only to find that Luo Yunfeng was not there.

Without much thought, he fetched his toiletries, washed up quickly, and logged into the virtual world.

At 8:30, Karapti Hey appeared precisely on time in the main hall of the Divine Arena.

After exchanging greetings, Hey immediately extended an invitation to spar, and the two were sucked into the fighting space together.

"How's things going in Jiangcheng now?"

Without the surrounding noise, inside the fighting space, Chen Cong looked at He Yi and casually asked.

Hey shook his head with a solemn expression: "The situation is not optimistic. Unlike other disordered fusion rifts, that disordered fusion rift has not shrunk and disappeared. It seems to be showing signs of transforming into an ordered fusion rift."

Upon hearing this, Chen Cong frowned instantly: "I remember that for a disordered rift to transform into an ordered rift, it needs a royal beast comparable to a ninth-tier Martial Saint to stabilize the rift space. The disordered spatial rift in Jiangcheng is only E-level. Does it have a royal beast behind it?"

Hey shook his head again: "I don't know the specifics either. Normally speaking, it's impossible for the alien beast clan behind the E-level fusion rift to have a royal family. Moreover, your Great Xia Martial Temple's Overlord Spear Senior Ye and our Annam's Master Da Wen have also gone deep into that fusion rift to investigate, and they didn't find anything unusual."

"Forget it, this isn't our business." Hey waved his hand irritably, then turned to Chen Congdao, "You're almost a Rookie 3-Star?"

Chen Cong nodded: "We're still 68 win points away. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll definitely reach that goal today."

Hearing this, Hey pouted and said, "I've played over forty matches to reach 3 stars, and you're almost there in less than 20 matches? It's infuriating!"

"Never mind, you have to spar with me today and help me improve my boxing skills."

"If we can all get the title of [Blackstone Trialer], we can team up and go to some fusion battlefields to get a feel for the world."

Chen Cong smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Karapti Hey got up from the ground, clapped his hands, and immediately assumed a fighting stance.
