Chapter 947: Comparing Skills and Concerning Hearts
"Wonderful!"
There was a burst of applause from the airship.
Korva clapped his hands. He didn't seem sad at all about his partner's miserable appearance. His expression was full of excitement.
In fact, he didn't need to worry about anything. It could be seen that Chen Chuan held back in the end. Such a minor injury could be recovered in minutes.
This was indeed the case. After just a short wait, the bruises on Skarsson's face subsided rapidly, and his broken teeth grew back. Then he stood up again, and the wet parts of his body were quickly evaporated by his burning body temperature.
He stood in silence for a moment.
Then he said, "Director Chen, since I lost, I will fulfill my promise. I wonder what you want?"
Chen Chuan said: "Mr. Skarsson, what is your best weapon?"
"That's my pair of gloves," Skarsson said.
Chen Chuan said, "This is it."
Skarsson nodded solemnly. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch the boundary, but all he touched was the broken pendant. He ripped it off and shouted upward, "Korva, help me."
Korva understood. "That's the third box from the top, right?"
"Yes, the green box, make no mistake."
Korva made a gesture of understanding and turned away. A moment later, he returned with a pair of boxing gloves, which he shook and threw down.
Skarsson caught it, took a look at it, and threw it towards Chen Chuan.
"This is a gift my teacher gave me when I became a fighter. It has been with me for almost twenty years. Now it's yours."
Chen Chuan caught it and said, "Mr. Skarsson, thank you."
Skarsson said in a deep voice: "This is the spoils you deserve."
He felt a little regretful that he had not been able to persuade Chen Chuan this time. In the foreseeable future, the power to maintain the World Ring would inevitably be lost. This was his dereliction of duty.
However, losing was losing, and he had no choice but to accept it. Ultimately, a fighter relied on force. If he could suppress Chen Chuan this time, he could get him to agree. But now, he couldn't do it. Ultimately, he wasn't strong enough...
No, the opponent is too strong!
He couldn't help but look at Chen Chuan again.
Over the past decade, he had followed the investigation team around the world, visited many places in the world, and met many fighters. He knew clearly what most fighters who had recently broken their limits looked like, but none of them could compare with Chen Chuan, not to mention that this guy was so young, not even twenty years old when he broke his limit.
No wonder there were so many amazing achievements before. There is no water or exaggeration in them. They are all achieved through real hard work.
People like this are born strong, but why can't they give the weak a chance?
He felt a little heavy-hearted. Although he could no longer speak in front of Chen Chuan, he would not give up on this matter. All the power to maintain the human world should not be lost in internal friction.
He said in a deep voice, "Director Chen, I will send you a batch of high-energy nutrients when I return to compensate for your consumption today."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "That's it, do you two have any other questions?"
Skarsson shook his head and said, "Our evaluation of you is complete. We will record everything truthfully, including all the questions and answers mentioned above, and will store it in the archives. We may also include some of our comments. Please understand if any of them are offensive."
Chen Chuan didn't care about it. He couldn't interfere with what the other party wrote. Ordinary government officials might be afraid of this, but it had no effect on fighters at all, because a fighter's power and status ultimately depended on his own strength, so he didn't care about it at all.
"So where are you two going now? There are many famous mountains and scenic spots in Jibei Road, but they are outside the central city. Do you want me to take you around?"
When Korva heard this, he was obviously interested, but Skarsson refused.
"We have our own responsibilities, not here for fun. Director Chen, we have concluded our inquiry with you. Next, we will visit another fighter."
Korva's eyebrows twitched slightly, then he shrugged helplessly.
Chen Chuan said, "Principal Yao should be waiting for you at Wuyi College right now. Take my airship over there."
"Thank you," Skarsson said.
Chen Chuan and Skarsson floated up from the water and returned to the airship. They left Chaocai Lake and flew towards Wuding District.
On the way, Korva asked about the situation in the central city of Jibei Road and its surroundings. All he cared about was eating, drinking and having fun. When he heard about some of the entertainment in Shengu City, he couldn't help but become very interested.
However, it is not so easy to go to the fusion area. Even if they are members of the international investigation team, they still need to be approved by the Dashun Defense Department. After all, it involves many internal interests of Dashun and is also an important frontier position against the old imperial family.
When the airship arrived at Wuyi College, Chen Chuan said goodbye to them here, dropped the two people off, and then returned to Weiguang District.
Chen Chuan watched the two men walk into the Xuangong Building, retracted his gaze, and walked into the main cabin. When he competed with Skarsson just now, the Great Sky Force Field he used was not a fully connected force field. At best, he only used the power he had after mastering a certain style.
If he exerted his full strength, he would consume too much energy while also delivering intelligence to the other side.
The highest level that an average fighter can reach after practicing the Great Blue Sky Style for several months is roughly what we saw just now.
In fact, this is enough in a competition. If he really fights for his life, he is sure that the opponent must have a trump card, and the battle will not be as medium-intensity as the one in front of him.
He recalled the previous battle. As a world-renowned fighter, Skarsson's skills did have many advantages. His precise and efficient control over the spiritual fire was something he had never seen before.
At least he couldn't do it right now.
But everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Just because he can't do something now doesn't mean he won't be able to do it in the future. He won't be affected by these things. He just needs to keep walking his own path.
After thinking about it, he immediately drafted a report, recorded what had just happened, and sent it to Qi Weizhao.
He looked up at the strong and bright sunlight outside. Judging from the current situation, he shouldn't have any major problems here. The key lies in whether the Government Affairs Office can handle this investigation.
As soon as Skarsson and Korva entered the Xuangong Building, they received a notice saying that there was something unusual at the fusion land, so Principal Yao Zhiyi might be back a little later. They were asked to wait here for a while, and the new vice-president was arranged to apologize to them and take them to the principal's reception room to wait.
So the two of them can only wait here for now.
Korva looked at the reception room with great interest. There were some honorary trophies that Jibei Dao Wu Yi had won, as well as portraits of past principals. He looked for a moment, then turned and said, "Skarsson, I have a question. You could have gone underwater just now, so why didn't you use this method?"
He knew clearly that his partner, who was born in Huansuo Island, was very familiar with water. His fighting ability underwater was no worse than that on land, and might even be a little bit higher. He could have fully utilized his own advantages at that time.
Skarsson said, "Have you forgotten? He chose to fight us in these waters. The data shows that he destroyed the active consciousness of the Proto-Man Company at sea. I believe he was prepared, so I will never fight him in these waters."
Korva couldn't help but realize, "Yes, this is most likely a trap he prepared in advance. Well, how should I put it..." He raised his hand and pointed to the evaluation standards for Wuyi students hanging on the wall.
"Excellent pre-battle decision-making! Yes, that's it. But..."
He spread his hands again. "Skarsson, are you just giving up?" His face showed surprise. "I thought you would try to persuade him a few more times. This is a bit unlike you."
Skarsson paused for a moment before saying, "He might not be what I initially thought."
"At first? Different?" Korva was a little puzzled.
"He is undoubtedly a man who advocates the use of force."
Skarsson put on his signature serious expression. "I always thought he was cold to everyone and indifferent to life. This is a common problem among many fighters—they no longer see themselves as 'human' but as higher beings."
Some of them are even more extreme, even distinguishing themselves from ordinary fighters, believing that they are superior and no longer belong to the same category. There are some examples of this among the group of fighters with outstanding natural talents.
But I found out that I was wrong, he still had a compassionate heart, which was somewhat different from my previous judgment."
"Hey, partner, how did you figure that out?" Korva's eyes widened, bewildered. "Is it because he held back on you just now? No one would kill anyone from the investigation team in that kind of sparring match, right?"
Skarsson said in a deep voice, "Didn't you notice? Before we started sparring, he used his boundary certificate to notify the person in charge of the tourist area and asked them to control the surrounding lake and prevent other tourists from entering the area. This was to prevent innocent people from being harmed.
Many fighters, even if they pay lip service to respecting ordinary people, don't really take them seriously deep down. But he did it so naturally, and I could tell he wasn't just trying to please us, but was acting on his own instincts, unlike other fighters.
But you are right, my persistence will not change, every fighter is useful and cannot be consumed casually and recklessly."
Korva pinched his chin and said, "Is that so..."
As they were talking, a receptionist walked in and said with a smile, "Sorry to interrupt your conversation, Principal Yao just came back from school. He's sorry to have kept you waiting. Please follow me."
