Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 313: Batch 350's Freaks (2)

Yet another top 100 student had been defeated.

Wan Mingze had taken the 93rd position.

Meanwhile, his defeated opponent had dropped one position. When a student outside the ranking defeated a ranked student, the ranked student would not drop out of the ranking. Instead, the student would only drop one rank.

At this point, Lin Qing had dropped from the 95th place to the 97th place.

Liu He had dropped to the 100th place.

Su Yu had occupied Huang Qifeng's previous position while Huang Qifeng was occupying Liu He's original position. Liu He was the one who was on the verge of being squeezed out of the ranking.

But Huang Qifeng had suffered serious injuries. As long as someone challenged him, that person would be able to instantly take his position.

However, it was rather unlikely that someone would do so today. But if Huang Qifeng remained injured for long, it was only a matter of time before the other students lost patience. It wouldn't matter how strong the single character faction was. People would eventually challenge him. Leaving him alone for now was already the biggest respect people could give him and his faction.

After a few days, as more and more challenge fights happened, Huang Qifeng would be pushed out of the ranking.

"Another victory."

Lin Qing had a complicated expression.

Another one had won.

A new student had easily defeated yet another top 100 student. She had only managed to reach the 95th place after working very hard. But in the blink of an eye, she had dropped to 97th place. Liu He would most certainly climb the ranking again tomorrow, her position would only drop further.

After working hard for two months, she had once again been relegated to be the goal-keeper of the ranking.

While she was thinking, two people entered the ring.

When Hu Qiusheng saw that the other person was Xia Chan, he smiled and jumped off the ring, "You first."

Xia Chan said nothing. She said, "Senior in the 95th place, I wish to exchange some pointers with you."

The student ranked 94th was the one who had just been defeated by Wan Mingze before. Thus, Xia Chan was skipping to the next student.

A clamor erupted among the crowd. Was the new batch this year going to turn the Top 100 Ranking upside down? The ranked 95th student had an unsightly expression. His position had dropped several times in a short period of time. He refused to believe that the new students of this batch were really that strong.

Both combatants stood facing each other in the ring.

And the match began.

Su Yu knew that Xia Chan had a break character of the divine race. And that could very well be a second tier character. Xia Chan was also a seventh-stage Great Strength cultivator. Her cultivation was comparable to those in the bottom 10 of the ranking.

She had not won the fight as easily as the new students before her. She had spent about eight minutes before finally gaining an advantage with her Sky Sundering Saber, sending her opponent flying away. Even so, she also looked quite exhausted by the end of the match.

She won.

The victory didn't come easy, but she had still done enough to prove how insane her strength was as a new student who could enter the top 100.

Lin Qing had dropped to the 98th place.

Liu He had been pushed out of the ranking.

The next new student entered the ring.

Right after Xia Chan's match was over, Hu Qiusheng entered the ring.

People like Xia Chan who had defeated an existing top 100 student could enjoy the immunity of three days. Thus, she didn't need to fight further matches today. Hu Qiusheng challenged the ranked 97th student.

All the defeated students had dropped one position in the ranking, but none of the new students had bothered challenging them. If the impression Wan Mingze gave was that of a powerful student, then Xia Chan gave off a courageous impression while Hu Qiusheng gave off a mysterious impression.

One could say that Hu Qiusheng was the embodiment of a traditional cultural researcher. From the start until the end, he fought from far away with only his cultural weapon. He stood there calmly while his sword danced in the air, leaving numerous afterimages in the ring. After about five minutes, the ranked 97th student's scapula was pierced through by the sword.

Seeing that Hu Qiusheng still had enough willpower to fight, his opponent conceded helplessly. He wasn't even able to approach Hu Qiusheng. With Hu Qiusheng occupying the 97th place, Lin Qing dropped to the 99th place.

Lin Qing had an unsightly expression. According to this trend, if there was a next challenge, she would be the one challenged. That was because the current student ranked 98th was the one who had just been defeated by Hu Qiusheng.

Perhaps she wouldn't even be relegated to be the goal-keeper. She would probably get kicked out of the ranking entirely.

Zheng Hong, Zhang Hao, Su Meng, and Zhao Shiji hadn't even fought.

"The Top 100 Ranking is really going to change today."

Many old students couldn't help but to feel somewhat melancholic. In the blink of an eye, five new students had entered the ranking. The Top 100 Ranking was really going to undergo a massive change.

Previously, Zheng Yunhui had declared that they would clear the bottom 10 students. And now, they were on the verge of achieving that.

Zheng Yunhui had already recovered from his previous shock. He yelled, "Go! Zhao Shiji, what are you guys waiting for? There is still an empty spot! Get rid of the 99th place student!"

After defeating the 99th place student, the remaining old students in the bottom 10 would all be the students that had been defeated today. Due to the pride of the freaks, they would naturally not challenge these opponents today.

Thus, only one spot was left for the freaks. And that spot was currently occupied by Lin Qing. Grief covered Lin Qing's face. Just what in the world was going on?

Beside her, Wu Lan lamented, "What a pity. Sister Qing, I really want to enter the ring as well."

She was a tad bit too weak. Otherwise, she would have stepped into the ring as well. And if she could do so, her opponent would be Lin Qing. That was acceptable for her.

Lin Qing cursed inwardly. She would be glad to have Wu Lan challenge her instead of one of these freaks.

This stinky lass! She had claimed that the people in her class were nothing special. All of them were supposedly very ordinary. All of them were garbage. Were these...the so-called garbage students? If they were garbage students, what were seniors like them?

While she was thinking, the four remaining freaks looked at each other. The next match would probably be the final match involving the new batch today. Who would go next?

All the previous challengers had won. If they ended up losing, it would be too embarrassing. At times, reputation could be very important. If they issued a challenge without the confidence to win, things might end up badly for them.

"Let me do it." Zhang Hao volunteered, "Nobody from the Talisman Faculty has fought yet. I can't let your Character Faculty hog all the limelight, right?"

"Senior ranked 99th, please enter the ring."

Lin Qing cursed inwardly. Did they not have names? Why only address them by their ranks? She was in a bad mood, but she was still relieved to see that her challenger wasn't from the Character Faculty. Someone from the Talisman Faculty shouldn't be too strong, right?

Alas, she was soon subjected to a rain of exploding talismans.

Zhang Hao did not fight using ordinary talismans. Rather, he fought with exploding talismans he had formed with his Divine Characters. These were the talismans that had given even Su Yu a hard time, forcing Su Yu to focus on turtling up instead of attacking.

And it didn't even take much of Zhang Hao's energy to create one of these exploding talismans. He had always been a specialist in prolonged combat.

Explode!

Explode!

From the start until the end, that was the only move he used. He didn't approach his opponent. He didn't showcase an eye-catching martial technique. He only focused on bombing his opponent.

Lin Qing was definitely not weak. After all, she was the student of the genius teaching assistant, Wu Qi.

But against an opponent this unreasonable, Lin Qing was unable to even get near her opponent to use any of her powerful martial techniques. After being bombed for over a hundred times, Lin Qing finally fell off the ring.

At that point, her mind was in such a disarray that she didn't even know how she got out of the ring. As for Zhang Hao, he stood in the ring gasping for breath. He wiped his sweat in relief. Fortunately, he hadn't embarrassed the new students.

He was already on the verge of emptying his willpower. And at that point, he would be finished if Lin Qing was allowed to get near him. He was rather weak in terms of physical combat. Lin Qing was much stronger in that aspect. She would probably only need one swing of her sword to end him in melee range.

"I got lucky."

After politely thanking his opponent for the match, Zhang Hao happily left the ring.

And thus, Lin Qing was pushed back to the 100th place, becoming the goal-keeper of the Top 100 Ranking yet again.

Zheng Yunhui, Wan Mingze, Xia Chan, Hu Qiusheng, and Zhang Hao had entered the bottom 10 of the ranking. Su Yu had climbed to the 71st place.

On the 3rd of October, the new students of batch 350 had given the academy a grand performance.

The Top 100 Ranking had been turned upside down by them.

With the end of the final match, the grand performance on the 3rd of October came to an end.

There were no new challenges. The changes today had been too shocking. Many people needed some time to properly rearrange their thoughts and plan for the future.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was preparing to head to the books depository. Everyone else could forget about the little incident earlier, but he couldn't.

In fact, more troubles were probably coming his way. He had given Huang Qifeng such a terrible beating. Even an elder of the single character faction had received such heavy injuries. If the single character faction could even let all that slide, then that would probably be a faction of saints.

Of course, they probably wouldn't dare to break any rules. But they could still give Su Yu a lot of trouble while sticking within the boundary of the rules.

While walking, a secretive Xia Huyou caught up to him. The fatty kept looking left and right cautiously.

When Su Yu looked at him, Xia Huyou said, "Su Yu, I suspect someone is targeting me. A guard warned me earlier that the academy is getting ready to raid me again!"

"..."

Su Yu was stunned. Holy shit. Did he manage to bribe the guards?

"Don't look at me like that! I didn't bribe anyone!" Xia Huyou explained, "It was a senior from my family..."

"..."

Su Yu was speechless. What was so different about that?

Xia Huyou couldn't even be bothered to explain himself. Of course it was different. The academy guards were technically also an army under the Xia Family. Not only would the guards need to obey the academy, they also needed to obey the Xia Family. Thus, strictly speaking, they hadn't bribed anyone.

He said, "And sure enough, a shameless old fossil is targeting me. That is most definitely a pavilion elder. Fortunately, I'm smart enough to accept bets in receipts this time."

Not far away, Jia Mingzhen was "casually" walking by.

Very good.

He was that shameless old fossil.

He did not have the time to create further trouble for that little fatty today. He still needed to meet Wan Tiansheng. The principal had suddenly attacked Zheng Yuming. He needed to get a clear idea of what was happening.

"Just you wait, little fatty. When I'm done with this matter, it would be your turn to receive my attention."

Both Xia Huyou and Su Yu didn't even notice Jia Mingzhen. Su Yu didn't really care about all that either. He merely asked, "So how much did you earn?"

"Su Yu, you are too savage!" Xia Huyou helplessly said, "You should have told me you could win in one minute. I would have been able to earn even more had you told me that. Didn't you say that you need three minutes?"

"That's a safe estimate. One should always be humble."

Su Yu flashed his friend an honest smile. One should always be humble, so he naturally couldn't sound arrogant. Thus, it wasn't surprising for him to claim that he needed three minutes only to win the fight in 30 seconds.

Xia Huyou was speechless. He said, "Are you selling that heaven-grade technique?"

"..."

Su Yu stared at his friend silently.

"Don't worry. I won't leak it. The Xia Family has a habit of collecting all sorts of methods and techniques. If you submit it to us, we will keep it in our collection. Only a very small number of people will be allowed to read it. As long as we don't make the technique public, even if the creator is still alive, they usually wouldn't be bothered about it."

Su Yu did not give any reply. Dream on!

"Cut the crap. Just how much did you earn?"

"Not much. The rate for those betting on you is too high. In the end, I only earned about 25,000 merit points."

Xia Huyou grimaced in pain and said, "But of the 25,000 merit points, I still need to take some out and bribe the relevant people that had allowed me to safely carry out my business activities. And a lot of people have yet to pay up since the bets had been placed with only receipts..."

He then smiled again and said, "But you will get your share. With a split of 3:7, you can get 7,000 merit points. What do you think?"

That was a decent amount of money. To be precise, that was actually a lot of money. After all, that was pure profit. He hadn't even invested anything in the business.

Since Su Yu could get that much, he had to admit that this fatty was still quite fair when dealing with him. Thus, he smiled and said, "Sure. You don't need to transfer me the points. Just gather some five elemental and mountainbreak bull blood essence for me."

"You're still buying blood essence?"

Xia Huyou looked at Su Yu in astonishment. Even after buying so much blood essence previously, Su Yu was still buying more?

"Prioritize five elemental blood essence." Su Yu said, "The blood essence is not for me. It's my teacher."

He turned solemn as he said, "My teacher is recently performing a massive research. He is in need of blood essence. I heard the five elemental blood essence is helpful in cultural arts. My teacher is trying to see if he can create a method for people to grow their willpower through consuming blood essence. This is very important."

Xia Huyou was astonished, "What? Assistant Bai is already starting to research willpower? I thought he was researching blood essence abilities."

"It can be considered a related project." Su Yu said, "Apart from the mountainbreak bull blood essence, all the other blood essence will be given to my teacher."

Xia Huyou looked at Su Yu with sympathy.

How pitiful. He actually had to raise his teacher instead of the other way around. Bai Feng was truly shameless. Was he now ashamed of living off his student? When he thought about it, Su Yu's explanation was understandable. How could Su Yu use up that much blood essence alone?

Then again, Bai Feng was also quite nice. At the very least, Su Yu had benefited from all the results of his research. Su Yu wouldn't have been so strong otherwise.

"Wentan Research Center..."

Xia Huyou reckoned that the day this research center opened itself to the outside world, countless astonishing research results would be announced to the world.

But something about the research center still felt somewhat unreliable. It wasn't Su Yu. Rather, it was Bai Feng.

Could Bai Feng even complete his research? Could this shameless person who was living off his student finish his research? If he couldn't, then all those resources would have gone to waste.

Wentan Research Center.

Third underground floor.

Bai Feng had just made a small progress in his research. In his joy, he was about to continue his research when he sneezed.

"Am I getting sick because I haven't slept for a long time?"

But he was a Skysoar!

How could a Skysoar even be sick? Also, he seemed to have sensed some disturbances outside earlier. Was someone fighting in the academy? Scratching his messy hair, Bai Feng decided that the fight was none of his business. He was better off focusing all his energy on his research.

"Racial ability character..."

Bai Feng muttered to himself with a look of madness in his eyes. But the light of joy in his eyes was also getting brighter and brighter.

"The so-called racial ability character might be more than a single Divine Character. Rather, it is something formed by several Divine Characters. In that case, which Divine Characters do I need? No, perhaps different Divine Characters will give birth to different racial abilities. Do I need human characters?

"Character technique? Is the character technique of the multiple character faction something that was created as a precursor to the racial ability character?"

Bai Feng had a deranged look on his face.

Was his guess correct? If that was the case, the multiple character faction must not only survive, but should also rise to prominence yet again. Only then would they be able to activate the racial ability of humanity.

"No, the single character faction might also be able to assemble multiple characters together to form the racial ability character. But they might have a harder time doing it than us..."

Bai Feng grew more and more excited.

"Teacher, in your absence, I have nearly completed a research that would shake even the Myriad Realms!"
