Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Chapter 178 - : Initial Assessment

Chapter 178: Initial a.s.sessment

He had just taken two steps when a figure suddenly blocked Chu Nan and the woman.

“Chu Nan, did you say that to me just now?” Xue Zhengming coldly looked at him.

“If you think so, then so be it.” Chu Nan looked at him with a smile.

Uncle Mu Luo said that Xue Zhengming would often appear in the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall, so he would definitely come to join the fun on such a special day. Now, he had indeed appeared.

Hearing Chu Nan’s answer, Xue Zhengming, who was already dissatisfied, was even angrier.

However, he knew very well that it was definitely not suitable to fight Chu Nan under such circ.u.mstances.

Moreover, the venue of this Star Cloud Academy’s initial evaluation was the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall, which was the territory of his Xue family. If he were to get into an argument with Chu Nan at the entrance, the ones who would lose face and suffer a negative evaluation would definitely be the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall and the Xue family behind it.

After figuring this out, Xue Zhengming forcefully suppressed his anger and only glared at Chu Nan.

“You’re also here to partic.i.p.ate in the test?”

“That’s right.” Chu Nan nodded and seriously observed Xue Zhengming’s expression. However, other than the obvious anger, he could not see much.

“Then I look forward to your performance later.”

Xue Zhengming coldly threw this sentence and turned to leave.

Chu Nan was a little surprised.

This guy had dared to challenge him in front of so many guests at the McDao Group’s banquet back then. It could be seen that he was not a guy who knew how to endure.

He did not expect that he would hold it in now. It could be seen that he was not that stupid after all.

“I hope I can still find a chance to fight him later.”

Chu Nan sighed in disappointment and turned to look at his surroundings. He discovered that the others were looking at him even more strangely, so he shrugged and pulled Chu Xiaoxi into the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall.

Although Star Cloud Academy had handed the initial approval a.s.sessment to the Federation’s Martial Artist Council and the martial arts organizations everywhere, the exact content of the test was as Chu Nan had expected and was confirmed by Star Cloud Academy itself.

Although it was only the initial a.s.sessment, as the number one academy in the federation, the difficulty of the a.s.sessment was still extremely high.

Generally speaking, the entrance test of the various martial arts academies in the federation was only a simple test aimed at martial artists and did not require much. The initial test of the Star Cloud Academy’s martial arts branch already required the martial artist to have a certain amount of Internal Breath and body refinement foundation.

This was the greatest difference between Star Cloud Academy and ordinary martial arts academies like West Cloud Academy.

West Cloud Academy’s martial arts academy even recruited ordinary people who did not know martial arts. Therefore, although Chu Nan was weak back then, he still easily entered.

However, the goal of the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch was completely different. It hoped to nurture martial artists who had powerful strength after graduation, so the starting point was naturally different.

According to the requirements of the first trial, the students who applied had to at least have the strength of the initial-stage Overlord Body Realm. The Novice Realm did not even have the qualifications to register.

Regarding this, Chu Nan naturally had no problem.

Although Chu Xiaoxi had only started cultivating the Nine Revolutions Technique for less than a month, because she had Chu Nan’s extremely detailed guidance from the beginning and had specially helped her open up a portion of her meridians, the starting point of her cultivation was far higher than Chu Nan’s back then and her improvement was fast. Now, she basically had the strength of an initial-stage Overlord Body Realm, but she had also pa.s.sed the first step of the test.

“Heh, Brother, tell me. If I pa.s.s the test, won’t I have to go to Earth with you?” Chu Xiaoxi, who had pa.s.sed the first step, had an excited expression as she spoke to Chu Nan with antic.i.p.ation.

Chu Nan smiled and shook his head, “It’s not that simple. After all, you’ve only studied for less than two months. If you can enter Star Cloud Academy like this, won’t they have wasted their lives?”

Chu Xiaoxi looked at the large group of young martial artists who had also come to partic.i.p.ate in the test and chuckled.

“Brother, why do I feel that if you enter, they’ll be even angrier?”

“Oh? What do you mean? I’m so powerful, so isn’t it normal for me to pa.s.s?” Chu Nan boasted.

“Because they all feel that it’s impossible for you to become very strong in the future, so it’s useless to enter. It’s purely a waste of a spot. If you really pa.s.s the test, they’ll have to lose a spot to s.n.a.t.c.h it. Wouldn’t they be furious?”

Chu Nan could not help but laugh.

“Now that you mention it, that seems to make sense.”

He turned to look at his surroundings and discovered that there were indeed many young martial artists partic.i.p.ating in the test staring at him.

According to the information announced by Star Cloud Academy, this martial arts branch would publicly recruit 300-350 students. The total number of people who pa.s.sed the initial a.s.sessment was 10,000, and only 500 would be a.s.signed to the Purple Cloud Planet. The Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall, which was a.s.signed to one of the five test sites on the Purple Cloud Planet, only had a mere 100 spots.

Now, as far as the eye could see, the young martial artists who had come to partic.i.p.ate in the initial test were densely packed, and it squeezed the extremely vast Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall until it was almost impossible to pa.s.s through. Roughly estimating, there were at least a few thousand people.

With so many people fighting for only a hundred spots, the compet.i.tion pressure could be imagined.

“However, this has nothing to do with me. It’s a fair test, so everyone can rely on their own ability.” Chu Nan shrugged and partic.i.p.ated in the next test without a care.

The test given by Star Cloud Academy was divided into four steps. The first step was to test the strength, speed, reaction, and other aspects that were related to the degree of tempering of the body. The second step was to test the foundation of Internal Breath. The third step was to specify some moves of a few external martial techniques. It required the young martial artists partic.i.p.ating in the test to learn and master them in a short period of time. They were to test the comprehension and learning ability of the external martial techniques in succession.

The fourth step was the last and most important step. It was the examination candidates’ understanding of their Internal Breath. They would be asked to use their Internal Breath to achieve some special requirements.

For example, there was a gla.s.s cup in front of Chu Nan and a gla.s.s ball in the cup. It required him to use his Internal Breath to shatter the gla.s.s ball without touching it with his hand, but he could not damage the gla.s.s cup.

This test required the examinees to have extremely precise control of their Internal Breath. To these young martial artists who were mostly still at the Overlord Body Realm, the difficulty was undoubtedly extremely high.

Before Chu Nan, five examinees had already been defeated in this a.s.sessment.

When Chu Nan walked forward, everyone’s gaze focused on him.

This guy had been so arrogant outside just now. Did he really have the ability?

Feeling the strange gazes of the surrounding crowd, Chu Nan’s expression was calm. When he heard the examiner announce the start of the test, he stretched out his hand to pick up the gla.s.s and willed.

Crack!

The gla.s.s ball in the cup instantly shattered into pieces and scattered at the bottom.

He had pa.s.sed the test.
