In the Budokan, the three principals and Xu Jun have already left.
However, as the loser He Zhichao was frowning, he still remained on the platform.
Liu Xuan Yue quietly looked at him, and suddenly said: "How come, just lose once, you're so disheartened"
He Zhi Chao said angrily, "Nonsense." He paused and said, "Didn't you say that after I challenged you, it would be your turn Why didn't you continue just now"
Liu Xuan Yue said without hesitation, "Since he was able to easily defeat you, I'm sure I'm no match for him either. If I know I can't win, why would I humiliate myself"
He Zhichao rolled his eyes. So he was using me as a guinea pig to find out about someone else's background
Liu Xuan Yue's expression was somewhat solemn, "I didn't quite understand the martial arts match just now. Why did you make your moves so intermittently, revealing so many flaws"
Everyone says a bystander is clear-headed, but this bystander just became more and more confused the more she looked.
If it weren't for the fact that she had been classmates with He ZhiChao for two years and knew his pride and integrity, Liu XuanYue would have truly suspected that they were deliberately feigning defeat to please people. She really wondered if the two of them were putting on a show.
He Zhi Chao was startled at first, then he looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief: "Liu Xuan Yue, didn't you hear Xu Jun's sword cry"
"I heard you," Liu Xuan Yue said. "The innate sword cry, it does feel somewhat mysterious."
He Zhichhao's face turned extremely strange.
"Isn't there something mysterious about it When you hear it, don't you feel a surge of blood, a tangle of emotions, a feeling of stagnation and... a desire to rebel"
Rebellion of Qi and Blood
What are you talking about Are you out of your mind
However, Liu Xuan Yue was not a fool. With just a little thought, she immediately understood the horror of the situation.
"You're saying that after hearing Xu Jun's sword cry, your blood surged uncontrollably"
"Yes." He Zhichao's voice was somewhat bitter: "The Innate Sword Cry, the influence on Qi and Blood is so great, it's simply, simply incredible."
He paused for a moment, then said again, "You...don't really feel anything"
Liu Xuanyue closed her lips tightly and shook her head silently.
These two, the strongest congenital-level students in the Third School, looked at each other. A strange chill rose in their hearts unexpectedly.
How did Xu Jun do it
The impact of Lian Jianming on people can also be distinguished. Is this guy a congenital martial artist or an immortal cultivator
…………

October went by quickly.
After entering the top eight, Xu Jun stepped onto the stage again a week later.
This time, I met another representative from a martial arts academy. It's a bit regrettable though, as this person wasn't born with innate talent and is only at the peak of acquired skill.
But what pleased him even more was that he excelled in weaponry.
Thus, with a sword in hand, Xu Jun's state of mind became more tranquil.
According to Li Qiankun's request, after a friendly exchange of dozens of moves, they politely invited him off the stage.
Ordinary people would find it difficult to discern the intricacies and might mistake their fight as a back-and-forth exchange, evenly matched.
It was only Xu Jun's final outburst that led to his victory.
However, to a truly powerful warrior, it is immediately apparent.
After this battle, Xu Jun successfully entered the top four.
Li Qiandong happily led Xu Jun into the Thunder Martial Arts Hall and said, "Brother Xu, your next match is the semi-finals. Your opponent in the semi-finals is Deng Le from Foshan Martial Arts Hall. This guy is skilled with a long staff. A long weapon is an inch stronger than an inch. You have to be careful."
He paused for a moment and added, "Of course we believe you're sure to win, but don't underestimate your opponent."
Tang Leke is one of the two innate talents in this Youth Martial Arts Cup, and his previous opponents are definitely not on the same level.
Therefore, Li Qiankun also specifically explained it.
Xu Jun was a little surprised and said, "Didn't the draw for the semifinals just happen How did the results come out already"
The draw for the Youth Martial Arts Cup is unique in that it takes place again after the results of the previous round are announced.
According to the organizing committee, the purpose is to increase the excitement.
Li Qiankun chuckled and said, "Brother Xu, before the draw, there's a custom that we try not to draw congenital-level warriors together."
He lowered his voice slightly and said, "We reported your martial arts cultivation as Innate level, so you haven't encountered either Xiang Feng or Deng Le along the way. However, the next stage is the semi-finals, so you will inevitably meet one of them."
Xu Jun became a little unhappy and said, "What do you mean Can't we talk about how Xiang Feng and Deng Le met first"
He certainly wouldn't be afraid of the two of them, but Li Qiankun's emphatic tone made him a little unhappy.
Could it be that by merely sealing one, one can inevitably avoid the other two innate evils and ultimately reap the benefits
Li Qiankun's face flushed with embarrassment as he said, "This... perhaps the organizing committee thought that among the three of you who possess innate abilities, Quing Feng has the strongest skill and the highest popularity, so they should advance to the finals."
Xu Jun was stunned for a moment, and cursed: "Damn it, this draw is indeed controllable."
Manipulating the lottery results is something that every organizing committee has been criticized and scolded for.
However, the organizing committee has never admitted it, and no one has been able to provide evidence.
The organizing committee repeatedly stated that the draw results are random, but some coincidences occurred during the random process.
Xu Jun had been somewhat skeptical about this before, because such claims did indeed exist.
From then on, he would never believe the committee's explanation again.
"Alright, I understand." Xu Jun nodded and said, "Li Ge, thank you for the information."
Li Qiankun hesitated for a moment and said, "Xu Ge, are you confident in the next match"
Xu Jun chuckled, speechless. "Do you want me to say I'm confident, or that I'm not"
Li Qiankun said without hesitation, "Of course I'm confident. Our Thunder Martial Arts Hall hasn't won the championship in eight years."
"Xu Jun let out a hearty laugh and said, "Then please inform the manager to get 100,000 yuan in prize money ready."
After finishing his words, Xu Jun entered the training room and began today's qi and blood cultivation.
Li Qiankun's eyes flickered, and he didn't disturb Xu Jun any further. Instead, he went to the seventh floor of the martial arts hall.
"Dad, I told Brother Xu the results of the divination."
Li Hengxin nodded slightly and said, "What do you mean, Mr. Xu"
He said he didn't care and could fight anyone.
Although Xu Jun never explicitly said it, his attitude and actions spoke volumes.
"Oh, Mr. Xu is so confident"
"Yes, he even got you a 100,000 yuan bonus ready."
Li Heng's eyes twitched, a hint of a smug smile playing on his lips.
Please have Xu Jun represent the Thunder Martial Arts Hall to compete, it must be a stroke of genius for his whole life!
He personally experienced the terrifying power of Xu Jun's sword cry.
That's not a congenital sword cry at all.
Instead, a sword cry rang out, reaching the level of a sword cry forming a cyclone.
Before Xu Jun unleashed that sword strike, Li Heng was actually not very confident about winning the championship.
Because in his memory, Xu Jun had only just grasped the Sword Cry of Innate not long ago.
Moreover, he's still an 18-year-old kid. Compared to those who are 27 or 28 years old, he lacks in physical fitness, mindset, and experience.
Li Hengxin never really expected Xu Jun to win the championship in this edition.
He is friends with Xu Jun, betting on the future rather than the present.
After being struck by a sword, he learned his lesson.
Therefore, he was very confident in Xu Jun.
As long as this little guy doesn't underestimate his opponents, there will be no doubt who wins the championship this year.
