Chapter 254: Chapter 204: The Virtual Battle of the Grand Competition Approaches

"Not me?" The woman in the purple training suit was slightly startled, "Who? Dantai Feng?"

"No," the man in the suit shook his head slightly.

"Then Zhu Tong? Yu Mingwei?" The woman in the purple training suit named two more people in quick succession.

These individuals were the ones she considered to be the biggest threat to her competing for the "Second Class Martial God Inheritance spot."

Some were from Starfire University, and others from different universities.

But they all shared three common characteristics: first, they were all from Xia Country.

Second, none of them had been to Feixing yet.

Third, they were all juniors or younger.

"None of them," said the man in the suit, shaking his head.

"Could it be someone in their senior or fifth year?" The woman in the purple training suit couldn't help but say, "Principal Yu, isn't this special privilege spot from our Xia Country normally given to students junior year or below?"

"Yin Man, don't rush," Principal Yu soothed, "This person is about the same age as Dantai Feng and also isn't from one of the top three elite martial arts schools."

"Li Yuan?" The woman in the purple training suit immediately thought of him, her eyes flashing, "Is that so?"

Principal Yu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"Has he broken through to the Fifth Stage Skill?" Yin Man pressed directly, her eyes filled with determination.

Principal Yu shook his head, "His exact strength isn't clear yet, but according to the information I've received, his spot was directly settled by our two Star Masters of Xia Country, and it's unchangeable."

"Most likely, he definitely has made some remarkable breakthrough," Principal Yu said.

"Two Star Masters?" Yin Man's heart skipped a beat.

How many Star Masters were there in the entire Xia Country in total? What had this Li Yuan done to gain such favor from two Star Masters?

To her knowledge, even the official principal of her own Starfire University wasn't a Star Master.

"Indeed, this matter has come upon us suddenly," sighed Principal Yu, "catching us off guard. Initially, the school had planned to recommend you to compete for the Second Class Martial God Inheritance spot."

"After all, in terms of strength alone, looking at this year's global university Martial Path competition, whether in virtual battles or real fights, you should be the strongest, and among all the talents in our Xia Country, you are far ahead," Principal Yu said, "then next year, we'll push for Dantai Feng to compete for the Second Class Martial God Inheritance spot."

Yin Man listened in silence.

The strongest in strength?

Last year, as a sophomore, she had successfully made it into the top ten in the global university Martial Path virtual battles.

She was the only sophomore among the top ten at that time, just barely missing out on being selected for a Martial God Inheritance spot.

After all, every year, there are only about ten spots chosen among all the Martial Path prodigies under 30 on Blue Star; the competition is indeed fierce.

This year, her goal was not only to break into first place in both virtual battles and real fights but also to secure the second-class Martial God Inheritance spot from Xia Country.

Though heading to Feixing later and gradually advancing from Third Class is possible, it's much slower.

As someone longing to surpass Flying Heaven and stand at the pinnacle of civilization, she naturally coveted the Second Class Martial God Inheritance spot.

"Principal Yu, is there really no chance at all?" Yin Man asked through gritted teeth.

"There's no chance, the spot is already confirmed," said Principal Yu, "don't be too discouraged, aim to steadily break into the top three in the virtual battles, and you'll naturally get a Martial God Inheritance spot."

"The difference between Third Class and Second Class isn't that big," said Principal Yu, "As long as you're excellent enough, once you arrive at Feixing, you'll still have the chance to become Second Class and even First Rank."

"Yes," Yin Man nodded slightly, "Principal, I will work hard."

"By the way, Principal," Yin Man suddenly said, "this Li Yuan, he'll be participating in the virtual battles too, right?"

"Of course, virtual battles are a rare opportunity to hone skills, we'll definitely have him participate," said Principal Yu.

He had already guessed what Yin Man was thinking, but he didn't ask any further.

Soon, they ended the call.

"Li Yuan?"

"Decided by two Star Masters?" Yin Man stood alone in the Martial Arts Room, holding her sword, her eyes revealing a hint of coldness, "So they directly settle on a spot without even watching the competition?"

"Perhaps this Li Yuan is outstanding, but they didn't even give me a chance."

"Fine."

"Then let me see just how strong this Li Yuan is." Yin Man felt a nameless anger burning within her.

As Starfire University's top junior and perhaps even the top student of her year globally, she was extremely proud.

Geniuses, by nature, don't like to admit defeat.

If she lost in a fair competition, she would accept it wholeheartedly.

Even if their strengths were close, she would acknowledge it because, after all, she was two years older than Li Yuan.

But without even competing? Naturally, she felt discontented.

"Swish swish~" Streams of sword light blossomed, the sword's energy surged violently, fiercely unyielding.

In an instant, shocking cracks appeared on the four walls of the underground Martial Arts Room.

...

Yin Man wasn't the only one who received the message at the same time, hoping to vie for first place in the virtual battles.

There were other top-tier geniuses from Xia Country as well.

For example—Dantai Feng.

"Principal Yu, are you saying that our Xia Country's special privilege spot has already been decided?" Dantai Feng, looking at the suited man on the screen, couldn't help but ask, "Yin Man?"

The first person he thought of was Yin Man.

"No," Principal Yu shook his head.

"Then it's Li Yuan," Dantai Feng said with a smile, "It couldn't be wrong."

"You guessed correctly," laughed Principal Yu.

"It wasn't hard to guess," Dantai Feng shrugged, "In terms of strength, Yin Man is the strongest... but in terms of potential, Li Yuan broke through half a month earlier than I did, and just looking at the speed of progress over the past year and a half, he has been much faster than me."

"If you say that he is stronger than me in skill level now, I would acknowledge it."

"Choosing him doesn't surprise me."

"Moreover, according to tradition, we would normally wait until the real battle ends to confirm, but now with the virtual battles yet to start, two Star Masters have already confirmed him, and if nothing unexpected happens, he surely must have done something astonishing," Dantai Feng said with a laugh.
