"Hah... it’s actually this kind of result, I really didn’t expect it."
The aftermath subsided, the smoke cleared, and Jiang Shijie, who had been heavily slammed into the ground, let out a groan.
His eyes were hollow, staring blankly at the sky, as if his soul had left his body.
His entire being faded into a pale color, like ashes burned out.
The pain of the flesh was far less than the collapse of the spirit.
"How could this happen!"
This Sequence Vanguard of the Seventh Battle Group was filled with confusion, disbelief written all over his face.
In over twenty years of smooth sailing, Jiang Shijie had never encountered such a defeat.
He did not understand, nor could he accept, that a high school student who had just entered the Specialized Level could crush him with overwhelming power, shattering his prideful "Unconscious Profound True Light" with three punches.
Beneath the Star Sea, is there really no reasoning?
It completely contradicts the most basic concept of cultivation on the Martial Arts Path!
"Cough cough, can you tell me, how many times has your enhancement... increased?"
Jiang Shijie lay quietly in the crater, his scorching breath rising as wisps of white smoke.
After Qin Shi’s violent beating, multiple bones in his body were broken, internal bleeding occurred, and organs shifted, like a porcelain vase that had fallen to the ground.
A slight touch would cause it to shatter.
Even the strong Life Force of the Specialized Level could not instantaneously repair such near-fatal injuries.
A rich glow covered his Mortal Body but could not provide any effective repair, and that stubborn Power remained in Jiang Shijie’s body like knives cutting through living flesh, causing his brows to knit tightly.
Qin Shi stood calmly on the spot, the majestic and powerful aura fluctuating as if a river flowing backward, quickly gathering and returning to his body.
The towering pillar of light that pierced through the clouds also slowly dissipated accordingly, like melting snowflakes, turning into tiny particles that hovered around.
"Ten times... hahaha!"
Jiang Shijie’s lips twitched, revealing an ugly smile of sudden relief.
As a youthful talent who broke through the Specialized barrier while still at the Amateur Level, he enhanced his physical statures tenfold?
Damn it, how does one fight this?
A cheat-like ability you can’t nerf!?
"I told you, descendants of Nanhuang Daoist School wouldn’t be so foolish as to refine and choose a blank attribute."
The suspended heart of Jiang Shijie finally died.
He silently closed his eyes and laboriously opened his mouth to speak:
"You won, Qin Shi. I concede wholeheartedly."
Qin Shi nodded, gladly accepting, and then engaged in commercial mutual praise:
"You’re not bad either, able to force out my tenfold enhancement."
He turned around, looking at Wu Yong standing off the field, and beckoned:
"Carry him down. The injuries aren’t severe; a fortnight’s rest will be enough to recover."
Wu Yong’s throat moved as he gazed at Qin Shi as if an unbelievable mythical creature had descended upon the world.
"By the way, weren’t you planning on sparring with me too?"
Qin Shi seemed to remember something, his eyes fixating on Wu Yong.
The latter shivered as if struck by high-voltage electricity, shaking his hands continuously:
To achieve a "enhancement feature" of tenfold increase.
What’s the difference from hacking?
I might as well throw my head against it!
Wu Yong couldn’t help but curse inwardly.
"Do you even need to ask? Haven’t you heard, the word Kung Fu stands tall, only those standing have the right to speak!"
"The descendant of Nanhuang Daoist School, a Scorching Sun talent from Heng Province stepping into the Specialized Level! Big news! This trip wasn’t wasted!"
"Shocking! Sequence Vanguard of the Seventh Battle Group encounters an underage high school student, unable to win despite all efforts! There’s our headline!"
Outside the gate, media reporters pooled like waves, the outer three layers pushing forward, the inner three layers standing firm, not daring to step onto the steps.
Amid murmuring, compelled by the prestige and reputation of the Nanhuang Daoist School, everyone’s behavior was quite restrained, unlike usual, only daring to roughly take a few photos of Qin Shi.
It can be anticipated that every newspaper’s headline today will feature this Scorching Sun from Heng Province.
"That’s right! A resounding victory! Knocked Jiang Shijie out with just a few punches!"
In the administrative center building of the Tai’an Metropolitan Area, the two top leaders Chen Ruofu and Fang Butang met.
The former was overwhelmed with work, as the grand development of Heng Province had reached the preparation stage and was about to fully commence.
The Inspection Department managed all aspects of military supplies and equipment configuration in the Tai’an Region.
As Chen Ruofu’s area of power expanded, the amount of public affairs he handled skyrocketed, leaving him unable to closely follow the Nanhuang Daoist School and young Qin.
The news of Qin Shi sparring with Jiang Shijie was only heard from old Fang’s mouth.
"Truly... a treasure we have found!" This content belongs to novel⟡fire.net
Chen Ruofu’s hands slapped together excitedly, abandoning his usual steady temperament.
"I’m figuring out a way to get young Qin recognized as a Dongxia Fire! Entering the highest protection sequence! If it’s only based on the Administrative New Star’s unilateral potential evaluation and competition results, it’s not persuasive enough!"
Fang Butang sipped from his thermos, his hands behind his back, nodding gently:
"Opportunity comes when we’re ready, young Qin indeed brings us peace of mind and efficiency. The Wind Scythe Sequence Army of the Seventh Battle Group has gained fame rapidly in recent years.
Mo Zhenting personally promoted the vanguard, only to lose to young Qin from the Nanhuang Daoist School, providing the best stepping stone! This has greater value than the Heng Province Top 100 competition!"
Chen Ruofu was in a great mood, laugh lines appearing at the corners of his eyes; gaining the qualification for Dongxia Fire is no easy task.
Not to mention the thirty-two administrative planets with influential families eyeing the same, just the competitors from the Four National Universities were like a school of fish crossing the river, hoping to seize this ’Dragon Gate Leap’ opportunity."
"Dongxia Fire, holding the highest security sequence, also represents entering the field of vision of the Imperial Capital’s core."
