Faced with this fist bearing the word "death," Qiu Zilu was immediately filled with fear and dared not have the slightest thought of confronting it head-on.
He reacted quickly. When He Xie's fist was more than a meter away from him, he immediately kicked backward with his calf muscles, quickly putting distance between himself and He Xie.
He Xie threw this punch casually, without any intention of killing anyone.
Therefore, Qiu Zilu was able to avoid it.
"So cowardly?"
Seeing Qiu Zilu retreat to the edge of the ring in a flash, He Xie couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. He obviously didn't expect the school's number one student to be so cowardly.
This was beyond his understanding of genius.
"What happened? Why did that senior student suddenly back away?"
"Is Senior Brother Qiu chickening out?"
"The fight hasn't even started yet, and they've already lost the battle in terms of momentum. The outcome is already decided."
"......"
The audience was noisy and thought that Qiu Zilu's retreat was cowardly and a sign of her lack of self-confidence.
At the same time, he was secretly shocked that He Xie's strength was so amazing. He could make the number one student of Shandong University retreat with just a casual punch.
This is absolutely unbeatable!
On the other side, the senior leaders in the leadership seat were all frowning.
They were some distance from the ring and couldn't fully grasp the terror of He Xie's punch, so they thought Qiu Zilu was cowardly, cowardly to the point of being incomprehensible.
Why should you, a senior student, be afraid of a freshman?
Go and take him down!
......
On the arena.
He Xie withdrew his fist and smiled at Qiu Zilu at the edge of the arena.
The next second, he instantly transformed into a blur that was difficult to catch with the naked eye, rushing towards Qiu Zilu with a whoosh.
There's no point in wasting time on this duel anymore.
Let's just finish this quickly.
"Grass!"
Upon seeing this, Qiu Zilu cursed.
Immediately, his blood vessels bulged out, and then his skin inexplicably hardened, with small, equally sized hard plates rising up.
These small hard boards look very smooth and shiny, with a scale-like appearance.
No!
This isn't a feeling!
These are scales!
This Qiu Zilu is a transplant recipient!
"Absolute Defense!"
Qiu Zilu, whose entire body was covered in scales, stared intently at He Xie, who was charging towards her, and said this in a calm voice.
This is his biological skill—the reverse scale.
After being released, its body will be covered in dragon scales, making it invulnerable to swords and spears.
"Absolute defense?"
He Xie rushed to Qiu Zilu's side in an instant, and said with a smile, "In that case, let's use a little more force and exert 0.001% of our strength."
Before Qiu Zilu could react, He Xie swung his fist and punched him in the chest.
The next second, a loud bang was heard!
Qiu Zilu, who had just been huddled on the edge of the ring, was suddenly sent flying backward, crashing right into the leaders' seats.
One of the leaders, whose biological level was as high as Epic Tier 1, immediately jumped up to catch Qiu Zilu, who was flying backward, so that he would not crash into the audience and damage the public facilities.
To everyone's surprise, the moment he caught Qiu Zilu, his expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Holy crap!"
Then, he crashed into the audience along with Qiu Zilu, with most of his body embedded in the wall.
Unable to withstand the impact of Qiu Zilu flying backwards, it was unfortunately caught in the crossfire.
"......"
After witnessing this outrageous scene, the entire stadium instantly transformed into a library, and the entire place fell silent.
It was as if time had stood still, and the entire scene had frozen in time.
Several seconds later, an incredulous gasp suddenly erupted from the audience.
"Holy crap! Am I hallucinating?"
"Senior Brother Qiu was instantly killed?"
"This...this is not scientific!"
"And the leader of that night watch organization, he couldn't even catch Qiu Zilu who was sent flying by He Xie's punch. Is that too exaggerated?"
"......"
[The contrast values from the audience are +8775 +8865 +9978 +7655 +8876...]
On the stage, He Xie paid little attention to the exclamations coming from all directions.
He opened the system panel and took a look.
[Contrast Value]:
hiss!
The contrast value has exceeded 100 million!
He Xie was excited. He took a deep breath, jumped off the stage, and walked towards the waiting area.
He has no interest in showing off now; he just wants to finish this school competition as soon as possible, pack his bags, drop out of school, go home, and build a magical sect in the orphanage.
In the waiting area.
Seeing He Xie, who had sent Qiu Zilu flying with a single punch, return, the older students inside didn't dare to even breathe loudly. They could only cower in the corner, silent and trembling.
It wasn't that they were cowards, but rather that the lingering biological power emanating from He Xie was too strong, causing them to feel fear instinctively.
An Ruoli, who usually appears aloof, now looks at He Xie with increasingly intense gaze. It seems that if there weren't other people in the waiting area, she would probably be clinging to He Xie by now.
Soon, the third and fourth matches began.
But hardly anyone paid attention.
Because these two matches were far less exciting than the previous two matches between He Xie and An Ruoli.
The audience's threshold has been raised too high; if the viewing experience is mediocre, it's impossible to stir their emotions.
The two matches ended in less than ten minutes.
Li Guang and Zhang Ruoli advanced.
He Xie didn't care who advanced, since in the end it was all resolved with a single punch. So, being almost invincible, he sat by the window practicing his breathing technique.
Seeing that he seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, An Ruoli was very sensible and did not disturb him. She simply moved a little closer and sat down, secretly inhaling the scent emanating from him, her face showing enjoyment.
An Ruoli didn't know why, but she just felt that He Xie smelled very nice.
Perhaps, I'm just infatuated with him?
An Ruoli couldn't figure it out, and she was too lazy to dwell on it.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
The fifth round, or semi-final, has finally begun.
The matching result was quite coincidental.
It's all about senior students versus freshmen.
Match 1: An Ruoli vs. Li Guang.
Match 2: He Xie vs. Zhang Ruoli.
Seeing that his opponent was An Ruoli, Li Guang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he wasn't matched with He Xie, he would have a chance to enter the finals.
Zhang Ruoli, standing next to him, looked extremely uncomfortable.
He Xie's strength is undeniable; he is invincible in this school competition.
Zhang Ruoli was matched with He Xie, which meant he was destined to be eliminated in the semifinals.
"The semi-finals have officially begun!"
"Please welcome the two contestants for the first match, An Ruoli from the 22nd All-Around Class and Li Guang from the 19th All-Around Class, to the stage to prepare."
As soon as the voice was heard, the two people in the waiting area quickly stepped onto the ring.
......
"Are you two ready?"
"Ready."
"Ready."
"The duel officially begins!"
......
Two minutes later, the referee's loud voice rang out again from the ring.
"The victor is An Ruoli!"
......
"Ahhh, this calming effect is unbeatable!"
"An Shen, the pride of Shandong University girls!"
"An Shen, I love you!"
"Record broken!"
"Finally, one of our girls has made it to the finals of the school competition!"
"......"
An Ruoli easily defeated Li Guang to advance to the finals, causing most of the girls in the audience to scream and cheer loudly.
Lin Chuchu, sitting in the audience of the School of Pharmacology, felt very envious. She kept thinking to herself, "What's so great about this? Can it beat my He Xie?"
Wen Xiuwen, who was in the Beast Taming Academy, felt a little envious of An Ruoli's popularity among the girls, but she mostly wanted to laugh.
They laughed at An Ruoli, saying that she was so outstanding, yet she gave He Xie away to another girl, and now she's stuck in a nightmare of chasing after him. They said it's like they gave her a chance but she was too lazy to use it.
Chen Yuntong, from the Plant Cultivation Academy, was tirelessly sending messages to He Xie on WeChat.
Although He Xie ignored her and often didn't reply to even one out of ten sentences, she didn't mind at all. She continued to play the role of a humble lapdog, fawning over He Xie day and night, hoping to develop feelings for him over time.
"Please welcome the two contestants for the second match, He Xie from the 22nd All-Around Class and Zhang Ruoli from the 2019 All-Around Class, to the stage to prepare."
"Referee, I forfeit!"
As soon as the referee finished speaking on the stage, Zhang Ruoli's voice immediately came from the waiting area.
Yes, he surrendered before the battle even began.
He figured that since he was absolutely certain he couldn't beat He Xie, why not just admit defeat?
Why would you go and get beaten up if you're just bored?
In the previous rounds, He Xie's opponents, such as Chen Peilin, Xu Yong'an, and Qiu Zilu, were all seriously injured and unconscious on the spot.
Chen Peilin, in particular, was riddled with holes by He Xie's external radiation of qi and blood, rendering her completely useless.
He Xie is so ruthless, whoever wants to follow him can go ahead, but Zhang Ruoli doesn't want to go up there and get beaten up.
And so, An Ruoli and He Xie successfully met in the finals.
This meeting broke the school's historical record.
This is the first time in over a century since the establishment of Shan Hai Evolution University that both finalists in the intramural competition are first-year students.
This is simply unbelievable, even absurd.
Half an hour later.
The long-awaited final has begun.
He Xie and An Ruoli took the stage at the same time.
Upon its appearance, it instantly drew cheers from the audience.
Everyone was enthusiastic.
Since He Xie and An Ruoli are both freshmen and have extremely high looks, a lot of CP fans immediately emerged on the spot.
Most of them were girls, and many of them were shouting at the top of their lungs.
"Together!"
"Together!"
"Together!"
"......"
The sound came in waves, making people's ears ring.
Lin Chuchu from the School of Pharmacology listened, her face falling as she mentally paid off the CP fans who were shouting at the top of their lungs.
On the stage, the referee saw that both of them were almost ready.
So he asked, "Are you two ready?"
"OK".
"alright."
The referee nodded, expertly raised his hand, and announced, "The duel officially begins!"
Upon hearing this, a strange purple light immediately flashed in An Ruoli's eyes.
He Xie understood that this was a sign of her using outward expression of her spirit.
He was quite curious about An Ruoli's strength, who claimed to have ten times the mental power, so he stood still and let her mental attack him.
The result was gratifying; An Ruoli's mental attacks had no effect on him at all.
An Ruoli quickly realized this, so she stopped wasting her energy on futile efforts and directly approached He Xie with a single instant step.
Since mental energy is ineffective against him, I might as well try my prized flower poison.
As the two brushed past each other, An Ruoli slightly opened her mouth and exhaled a fragrant breath onto He Xie's face, covering his entire face.
This fragrance is colorless and invisible, yet it possesses a captivating and refreshing aroma that soothes the soul.
He Xie knew it was flower poison, but he still took a deep breath.
He wanted to see if the flower's poison could affect him.
As expected, the flower poison had no effect on him whatsoever.
There was no other way; after all, he had practiced the breathing technique so many times that his poison resistance was already maxed out.
It's just a minor flower poison, nothing to worry about.
Are there any other tricks?
He Xie looked at An Ruoli and asked.
An Ruoli was silent for two seconds, then finally shook her head and said no.
For a fleeting moment, she considered unleashing her special abilities as a demonic plant.
Fortunately, she calmed down in time and didn't do anything foolish.
Otherwise, if his identity as a demonic plant were exposed, things wouldn't end well today.
Of course, the main reason is that I'm afraid He Xie won't be able to accept it.
Her current plan is to slowly win He Xie back, and when their relationship has warmed up to the point where they can't live without each other, she will then tell He Xie that she is a demon plant.
"We're out of ideas."
"Since we've run out of ideas, let's just call it a day and go home for dinner."
After speaking, He Xie's eyes narrowed, and he instantly released a vast and boundless spiritual energy, which condensed into an invisible hand.
He showed no mercy whatsoever, slapping An Ruoli off the stage and easily winning the victory.
Most of the audience members had expected this to happen.
Therefore, there were no frequent exclamations, only a normal burst of cheers.
He Xie did not enjoy the cheers, nor did he accept the commendation from the leaders.
Instead, he chose to go straight to the school competition rewards, squander all his credits on rare and exotic fruits, and then ran off with Lin Chuchu and Zhao Keying, rushing to pack his bags and return to the orphanage.
Once I got home, I told the school that I would be taking a leave of absence for a while.
As for the reason...
Sorry, no reason is needed!
That's how capricious geniuses are!
......
Mountain and Sea Evolution University.
In a secluded transplant room at the Transplant Academy.
Chen Peilin lay on the bed in pain, her whole body wrapped in gauze, blood seeping out from her wounds as they failed to heal.
Liu Tianhong stood to the side, looking at Chen Peilin with a gloomy expression.
This somber mood wasn't directed at Chen Peilin, but at He Xie, who had turned Chen Peilin into this state.
The blood essence that He Xie injected into Chen Peilin's body still has a lot of residue inside, constantly burning Chen Peilin's flesh and blood. It cannot be cleaned out in a short time, causing Chen Peilin excruciating pain.
"Dad, it hurts so much!"
"I can't take it!"
"Dad, kill me, please kill me!"
Chen Peilin pleaded in anguish, tears and snot streaming down her face.
Liu Tianhong gritted his teeth and finally went to the cold storage to take out a wriggling mass of flesh. He came to Chen Peilin and said with a look of unbearable pain, "Peilin, it's much better to live in pain than to die. You are my only daughter, and I can't lose you."
"No! No! Dad! I don't want this thing transplanted! I don't want it!"
Chen Peilin cried out in terror.
