Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 305: Top 100 Challenge (3)

Around the ring.

The expressions of the old students kept changing.

Some of the top 100 students had solemn expressions. One of them said softly, "Wang Peng overestimated himself. What an idiot."

Wang Peng had been too confident in his judgment. He believed that Zheng Yunhui would definitely avoid his stab. But Zheng Yunhui couldn't even be bothered to avoid the attack. In the end, he used only one strike to defeat Wang Peng.

If Wang Peng...No. There were no ifs and buts in life.

Wang Peng had been defeated.

"Sound attack, murderous intent, healing ability, eighth-stage Great Strength Realm, body strengthening technique..."

Zheng Yunhui was not weak, but in truth, his comprehensive strength was actually at a similar level with Wang Peng. The only reason his victory had come so easy was because Wang Peng had overestimated himself and underestimated his opponent.

In the ring.

Zheng Yunhui laughed, "I won. Am I in the 91st place now? I thought I would be able to have a satisfying fight. What a disappointment. Forget it. I'll stop here today. I don't need to accept challenges today, right?"

The referee looked at him. What an arrogant kid.

"No. Students who have newly entered the ranking do not need to accept any challenges for three days."

"Good." Zheng Yunhui jumped off the ring with a smile. He didn't even spare Wang Peng a glance. Instead, he looked at Wan Mingze and the others before looking at Su Yu. He said, "They are really quite weak. Are you guys not going to have some fun? The person in the 91st place has been pushed to the 92nd place. Those behind him are probably even weaker."

The faces of Lin Qing and a few others turned unsightly.

Too arrogant!

However, beside Lin Qing, Wu Lan was nodding in agreement. She softly said, "Sister Qing, you guys are so weak."

"..."

Lin Qing nearly had a heart attack from her anger.

She wasn't the one who had fought Zheng Yunhui! Why was she the one being called weak? That idiotic Wang Peng was such an embarrassment!

At that moment, Wan Mingze and Hu Qiusheng looked at each other and smiled. Wan Mingze was about to speak when someone from the crowd angrily shouted, "Su Yu, do you dare to get in the ring with me?"

That person then jumped into the ring.

He stared at Su Yu and said, "I heard that you have insulted my teacher during the Divine Character tournament?"

"Yang Sha?"

"What's up with him?"

"Su Yu insulted his teacher? Yeah, I think I heard about that. During the tournament, Su Yu asked if Liu Hong is as good in teaching as he is in a certain other ability of his..."

"What ability is that? Hehehe. There is a deep meaning behind those words."

"What are you thinking about? He was basically talking about Liu Hong's ability to be shameless. What else could it be?"

A lot of people were aware of that incident. There were a lot of participants in the tournament and Su Yu had indeed said those words during the tournament.

Then again, Liu Hong was the one who had made things difficult for Su Yu first.

Nevertheless, it was understandable why Yang Sha would challenge Su Yu. After all, Su Yu had indeed insulted his teacher.

Many curious eyes landed on Su Yu. Today was truly an interesting day.

Zheng Yunhui looked at Yang Sha before looking at Su Yu. He smiled, "Su Yu, even this garbage dares to challenge you? You have been too low key. Even a random piece of trash believes that he is stronger than you? Stop embarrassing us."

Yang Sha's face turned red from anger.

He was infuriated.

How dare Zheng Yunhui insult him like that!

Su Yu, with his elegant white outfit, frowned slightly and asked, "Is this Senior Brother Yang? It is an exaggeration to say that I insulted Teacher Liu. As for the truth, those who should know are already aware of it. Why would a mere new student like me offend a teaching assistant for no reason?"

Yang Sha looked at Su Yu coldly and said, "A teacher is akin to a father. In the academy, teachers are basically the same as parents. I don't care about right or wrong. I only know that you wanted to see for yourself how strong I am. In that case, I'll fulfill your wish. Get in the ring."

He was being very frank. It didn't matter if Liu Hong was right or wrong. He only knew that Liu Hong was someone from his side. And he was going to side with those from his side. It was that simple.

The single character faction and the multiple character faction were hostile toward each other in the first place. It wasn't surprising that Liu Hong would create trouble for Su Yu.

Su Yu stared at Yang Sha silently.

Yang Sha sneered and said, "Everyone says that you love money, right? You're too poor. It's normal for someone from Nanyuan to be poor. Get in the ring. If you win, you can get 100 merit points. If you lose, I don't need you to pay anything. I only want you to kneel down and apologize to my teacher."

"Kneel down and apologize?" Su Yu frowned. "I can apologize. As for kneeling down, that is too excessive. Senior Brother Yang, I don't enjoy picking fights, but I won't allow others to step all over me either. Are you sure you want to do this?"

"You talk too much. Are you going to get into the ring or not?"

Yang Sha was very angry.

The words Xia Huyou had said to him earlier had provoked him so much that even now, he was still furious.

Su Yu was too arrogant.

This person actually dared to humiliate both his teacher and him in public. How hateful. Naturally, he was also trying to use this chance to carry out his own plan. Since there were still empty spots in the ranking, if he could defeat Su Yu, according to the rules, he could be admitted into the 99th position of the ranking.

But someone getting into the ranking in this manner would not enjoy the three days of protection. Thus, if he was challenged after this, he would have to accept it to protect his position.

But even if he was kicked out of the ranking on the same day, he would still benefit from it as it would be recorded in his profile that he had once occupied the 99th place of the Top 100 Ranking.

That alone was enough for him.

Since he had a perfect excuse to challenge Su Yu, nobody would even fight him over this chance. After all, the act of humiliating his teacher could be considered an intense provocation. It was perfectly reasonable for him to challenge Su Yu.

"100 merit points..."

Su Yu thought about it. Not bad. That was a decent amount of money.

He should take the chance to earn as much as he could before entering the ranking and revealing his strength. Thus, he said nothing and slowly walked into the ring.

Wan Mingze and the others had their interest piqued. Apart from that, there were some other people who were also paying close attention to Su Yu, such as Huang Qifeng.

This was a good thing for them. Yang Sha could help them test Su Yu's strength. Although Yang Sha had never entered the ranking before, he had only suffered a minor defeat during his previous challenge. Thus, he could be considered among the strongest students that were not in the ranking.

No matter how talented Su Yu was, he was still a new student. Could he be stronger than Yang Sha?

Huang Qifeng, who had just arrived, smiled, "If he loses, then he's garbage. If he wins, then he will enter the ranking. That is fine as well. In fact, I am hoping that he can win."

He naturally hoped that Su Yu would win.

If Su Yu lost, he would remain outside the ranking. And things would remain boring for them.

The people around him smiled at his words. Not far away, Chen Qi was looking at Su Yu with a frown.

If Su Yu won, then he would be in even bigger trouble. But Chen Qi was unwilling to see Su Yu lose either.

After all, if Su Yu lost, that would only prove that Yang Sha was better. And both Chen Qi and Yang Sha were considered to be almost on par with each other. Since he was someone who had been defeated by Su Yu, that would place him below Yang Sha. He could not accept that.

Even worse was the fact that he had been defeated by Su Yu one month ago. The current Su Yu was most definitely stronger than he was a month ago.

When Su Yu was finally standing in the ring, his emotions turned slightly complicated. Two months. Top 100 challenge.

This had arrived far earlier than he had expected. He really had to thank the single character faction. Without their financial support, he wouldn't have been able to grow so quickly. Thank the heavens for the single character faction.

Hopefully, he could harvest even more today.

After all, he had recently emptied his pockets.

"Senior Brother Yang." In the ring, Su Yu cupped his hands in greeting and said, "You wish to teach me a lesson for insulting your teacher. I have nothing to say about that. But in the ring, one of us will be the one to suffer a defeat. I can only hope that...regardless of the result, you won't keep bothering me after this."

Su Yu solemnly said, "In the path of cultivation, it is better to avoid unnecessary troubles when possible. I need to make this clear. I am only afraid that the loser would be unwilling to let the matter rest and keep escalating the matter until both of us get in trouble."

Yang Sha frowned and coldly said, "Bothering you? If I really lose, then that can only mean that I am the weaker cultivator. How would I lower myself to do something like that?"

But after saying that, he realized that something wasn't quite right.

What was the meaning of that? Was Su Yu saying that he would lose? He would lose and pester her Su Yu endlessly? But when he recalled that Su Yu had Infinite Strength blood essence abilities, he decided to take a cautious approach. He needed to keep an eye out for the usage of blood essence.

Su Yu smiled and looked at the crowd, "I am from Nanyuan, a small city boy. Thus, I am willing to compare notes with everyone to grow my experience. But senseless fights are unnecessary. And there is no need to act like we are sworn enemies after losing. When sparring, there will be a winner and a loser. This is my first fight in this ring. And I will probably be here again in the future. I beg for everyone's understanding."

In short, he was saying that victory and defeat would be decided in the ring. After the fight, the matter should end. There was no need to pester endlessly and create trouble for each other outside the ring.

The expressions of many people changed. What was the meaning of those words? Was he looking down on them? Su Yu's words were gentle, but for some reason, his words were even more infuriating than Zheng Yunhui's words. Why was he so sure that he would be the winner while they would be the sore losers?

"Interesting."

Wan Mingze laughed and shook his head.

Su Yu always gave off the impression of a simple and honest person, but those words of his were in actuality incredibly arrogant. The smart ones were able to understand the meaning behind his words. He had clearly not considered the possibility of him losing. Was he always this confident?

Hu Qiusheng smiled, "Some people show their arrogance on the outside. Some people...are silently arrogant."

Wan Mingze laughed. That was an interesting way of putting it.

Not far away, Zheng Yunhui looked at them and sneered, "The two of you are standing here talking like some armchair generals that are not willing to actually fight. Wang Mingze, I really want to fight you one day."

Hu Qiusheng said, "Why wait? You should do it today. Speaking of, our batch seems quite peaceful. We have yet to actually fight each other."

Zheng Yunhui looked at Wan Mingze with a burning gaze but Wan Mingze merely shook his head, "Forget it. Yunhui has just fought a match. Maybe we can fight in the future."

Zheng Yunhui sneered. This guy was still acting like a turtle. They stopped talking and focused on Su Yu. Previously, Su Yu had used blood essence to defeat Chen Qi with one move. What would he do this time?

Regardless of what Su Yu would do, Zheng Yunhui was sure that Yang Sha wasn't Su Yu's match. In fact, Su Yu would probably not waste his time with this fight if it wasn't for the 100 merit points.
