Chapter 92 Take Revenge in the Future

The teachers fell silent at the same time.

Chu Nan was not lying.

In fact, Enrico had already held back after nearly two hours of practice. However, he was still a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist after all, and he clearly far surpassed Chu Nan in all aspects.

Chu Nan was able to exchange blows with a second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist in the competition and even relied on his exciting performance to win. However, when faced with a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist like Enrico, he did not even have the chance to prepare a combat strategy. It could be said that he was completely suppressed and could not fight back.

There was sometimes a world of difference between martial artists.

From the looks of it, if Maruk really had the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath expert as most people speculated, there was no possibility of Chu Nan winning the competition tomorrow.

The teacher who had asked the question turned to look at the sky outside the training ground and sighed.

“Forget it, let’s end it here. Today, I mainly want to let Chu Nan experience the exact strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. If we continue, it won’t be good if he’s injured.”

The other teachers looked at each other. After a while, they nodded in unison.

Before they left, the teachers even patted Chu Nan’s shoulder to encourage him.

The teacher who left last threw a comforting gaze at Chu Nan.

“You don’t have to be too nervous. Just properly unleash your strength tomorrow. No matter who wins or loses, you’re already the greatest winner in this competition. Do you understand what I mean?”

Chu Nan smiled and nodded. “Thank you, Teacher. I understand.”

What this teacher meant was that Chu Nan had already obtained a great reputation through the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition and attracted the attention of countless people. This would be extremely helpful to his future development.

Even if the two Star-Grade Martial Artists judged that it would be very difficult for Chu Nan to become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future, martial arts was not the only thing in life. Chu Nan could completely rely on the powerful reputation brought about by this competition to obtain a better life than before. “That’s good.” The teacher patted Chu Nan’s shoulder and left.

In the end, Enrico looked at Chu Nan and wanted to say something but hesitated.

Chu Nan smiled at him and asked, “Do you think it’s impossible for me to win tomorrow?”

Enrico remained silent for a moment before nodding.

“Yes. Chu Nan, I’m very impressed that a low-level Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist like you can defeat Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists in succession. However, I have to be honest. Your current strength… is still quite inferior to a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. I’m actually very ordinary among third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists. If that Maruk also has the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, he’s probably stronger than me. You… shouldn’t be able to defeat him.”

Chu Nan was a little amused. This Enrico was really honest and spoke so bluntly in front of him. No wonder he was obediently pulled by the teachers to be his sparring partner.

However, compared to the teachers’ euphemism, he preferred Enrico’s straightforwardness.

“Yes, I understand.” Chu Nan patted Enrico’s shoulder, “I know my own limits, but no matter what, I can’t just give up, right?”

Enrico looked at Chu Nan and shook his head. He did not say anything else and waved at him before bidding farewell.

Looking at Enrico’s figure disappear from the martial arts arena, Chu Nan gently exhaled.

After he entered the semi-finals, not only was he the only remaining student of the West Cloud Academy, but he was also the only remaining martial artist in the entire Earth Federation under the age of 20 in this competition. Naturally, he received great importance from the higher-ups of the academy. They even specially invited Enrico, a senior with the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Realm, to be a sparring partner for the entire afternoon.

However, this was not very meaningful.

Everyone knew that it was impossible for Chu Nan’s strength to advance by leaps and bounds in a short day and beat a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. From there, he could defeat Maruk and advance to the finals.

West Cloud Academy had only made these arrangements because it was their responsibility. They did not expect to rely on this to help Chu Nan win tomorrow.

Although Chu Nan did not take it seriously, he was quite thankful for the academy’s arrangements, allowing him to have a rare experience fighting a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist.

From the practice in the afternoon, a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist was indeed clearly superior to a second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist.

When he faced the two opponents, Saha and Cardu, who had the strength of a second-stage Internal Breath expert, although he was still at a disadvantage in all aspects, he could still barely keep up. Then, he relied on the powerful experience he had obtained from tens of thousands of battles in the virtual space to set up a combat strategy and make the most correct reaction. Then, he relied on his incomparably powerful data ability to accurately execute it and obtain the chance to win.

However, when facing a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist like Enrico, he was far inferior in terms of strength, speed, and other aspects. He could not even follow Enrico’s movements, so how could he talk about winning by counterattacking?

Therefore, after practicing in the afternoon, Chu Nan could already give himself an accurate judgment. If Maruk really had the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist, then his chances of winning were infinitely close to zero.

Chu Nan did not feel much about being unable to win. After all, he was only an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist and there were countless martial artists stronger than him. A failure was nothing.

However, Maruk was extremely annoying. When he recalled that he was going to be defeated by him and saw his proud face, Chu Nan felt extremely unhappy. “When I become stronger in the future, I’ll get my revenge sooner or later!”

Chu Nan waved his fists forcefully, but he suddenly recalled that he had already been judged by the two Star-Grade Martial Artists, Mu Yutong and Norman, that it was almost impossible for him to become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future. If Maruk’s speed of improvement was extremely fast and he became a Void Break Martial Artist before him, did that not mean that he would not have the chance to win under normal circumstances?

“Impossible! My future is definitely not something that two Star-Grade Martial Artists can confirm with a single sentence!” Chu Nan clenched his fists even tighter.

When he thought of Mu Yutong, Chu Nan suddenly recalled the agreement with Zheng Yuanlin.

Now that he recalled it, he had been too arrogant to guarantee to Zheng Yuanlin that he would win the championship for groups below the age of 20. At that time, he felt that he could already rely on his data ability to defeat initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists in the virtual space. Later on, he had improved, so it would not be a problem for him to obtain the champion in the group below the age of 20. That was why he had spoken nonsense.

He did not expect that this West Cloud Planet’s martial artist competition would be successfully held. It actually attracted so many young genius martial artists to participate. Not only were initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists common, there were even many second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists. Now, there was actually a super genius martial artist like Maruk who might have the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Realm. This made Chu Nan uncertain that he could win the championship.

“However, no matter what, my performance in the competition can be considered very outstanding, right? Even if I can’t win the championship, Supremacy Mu Yutong should still recommend me to Star Cloud Academy.” Chu Nan thought for a moment and his mood was relatively relaxed.

At this moment, a communication request suddenly came from his personal terminal. Chu Nan lowered his head and saw the name on the communication request. He was immediately overjoyed and did not hesitate to choose the allowed connection.
