Noon, canteen.
As soon as Jack Clark sat down, Justin Welan came over with his tray, frowning, “Jack, I have no hope of advancing this time.”
“What happened?” Jack Clark was a bit surprised. With his strength, even if he couldn’t make it into the top 50, he shouldn’t be unable to pass the first round, right?
At this time, Crystal Leinster, Sawyer Levin, Vera Lee, and Freya Louise also came over.contemporary romance
Freya Louise and Crystal Leinster sat down across from them, while Vera Lee and Sawyer Levin sat at the next table.
Crystal shook her head, “Justin’s luck was too bad. His first opponent was Jane Aiken, and he just surrendered right away.”
Justin Welan defended himself, “That’s because she held a realm advantage, I’m not stupid, of course, I would choose to surrender against a Second Layer Heaven expert.”
As if afraid of being underestimated, Justin Welan shrugged his shoulders, “It’s not just me, even if you, Class Leader, faced her, it would be the same, there’s no hope.”
“Or rather, in this ranking competition, no one can shake her position as the number one.”
“She’s so strong?” Jack Clark was somewhat surprised.
Welan reasoned, “Of course, when breaking through to the Second Layer Heaven, there would be a significant increase, just like our Foundation Establishment, and the arm strength would increase by at least 100 kilograms.”
“Besides, experts in the Second Layer Heaven realm have True Strength, especially when she cultivates advanced skills, the explosive increase under True Strength is at least three to four times.”
“Who can be her opponent in this situation of being crushed in all aspects?”
Jack Clark silently nodded, with an estimated basic strength of 400 kilograms, plus at least a three-fold boost from True Strength, as well as faster speed and kinetic energy amplification.
Her casual strike could easily explode with an impact force of 3,000 kilograms, or more than three tons. Indeed, no one could compete with such strength.
Even that guy who fought with an iron column might not be enough.
As the most monstrous genius in South Sky Martial Height, Jane Aiken’s true combat power should be terrifying.
Jack Clark then became confused, “But wait, just losing one match shouldn’t be a problem for you to advance to the first round, right?”
With more than 500 people, and each person playing six matches, there wouldn’t be too many undefeated people. So it shouldn’t be a problem to enter the top 200 even if you lose one match.
“The problem is that I lost three matches.”
Talking about this, Justin Welan looked bitter, “In the second match, I met a pervert holding a pillar, his strength was terrifying, and I was directly smashed off the Martial Arts Arena with his three stakes.”
“Then, although I won three consecutive matches, in the sixth match I met a guy named Marcus Lee who practiced Chaos Heavy Hammer, and his skill happened to restrain me.”
“Due to my miscalculation, I was hit by his hammer technique and was knocked off the Martial Arts Arena with over twenty consecutive strikes, even though I had a great defense.”
“…Your luck is indeed quite bad.” Jack Clark didn’t know what to say about this.
Having finished talking about himself, Justin Welan casually asked, “By the way, Jack, how about you? How many matches did you lose?”
Ah…
Jack Clark coughed, humbly said, “I’m fine, I guess, my luck is not bad, the opponents I met were not ‘very strong,’ so I should have a chance to advance.”
“Your luck is so good.” Hearing that, Justin Welan couldn’t help but feel envious.
However, he didn’t think much about it and assumed that Jack Clark was indeed lucky, and the opponents he met were ordinary players who had established their foundations within half a month or a month.
Crystal Leinster and Sawyer Levin also thought the same.
But as soon as Jack Clark finished speaking, Freya Louise across from him couldn’t help but smile with her lips pressed, looking at him with a strange gaze.
At that time, Crystal and the others were competing and didn’t know who Jack’s opponents were since there were too many people around and the venue was too large.
However, she had been watching Jack from the audience seats all along.It was not his luck, but his absolute strength that swept through all his opponents, including Marcus Lee, who defeated Justin Welan.
She was shocked for a long time, as just a few days ago, Jack Clark couldn’t even beat Justin Welan.
Jack Clark looked at Crystal Leinster and curiously asked, “What about you guys, Class Leader?”
“I’m fine. I didn’t encounter any tough opponents.” Crystal’s tone was relaxed and breezy.
At the other table, the short-haired girl, Vera Lee, raised her hand and said with a smile, “I only lost two matches. I should have a chance to advance, better than Justin Welan and Sawyer Levin.”
“I lost three matches.”
Sawyer Levin was also a bit depressed. He had bad luck and encountered three ‘geniuses’ who practiced advanced cultivation methods. Otherwise, he should have advanced to the second round without any problems.
After lunch, everyone returned to the Sports Center.
There was still an hour before the afternoon matches, and Jack Clark found a random seat in the audience area.
At that moment, a faint fragrance wafted, and it was Freya Louise sitting behind him. She leaned forward curiously and asked, “Jack, did you break through to the First Layer Heaven Limit?”
Jack Clark turned his head and looked at the girl’s side profile, shook his head and said, “No, but I did make some progress in Dragon Elephant Power recently.”
“Dragon Elephant Power?” Freya was puzzled.
Jack Clark nodded and whispered, “Yes, my cultivation of Dragon Elephant Power has become smoother, and my strength has doubled, so I was able to defeat those people today.”
“True Martial Compatibility.” Freya was startled.
“I feel that this should be the reason.” Jack Clark knew he couldn’t hide it from her, so he prepared to use this reason to cover up the changes in him.
True Martial Compatibility was an enigmatic concept that even the creators of cultivation methods couldn’t determine.
Freya marveled, “To give you the power comparable to the First Layer Heaven Limit in just a week, it seems that your compatibility with Dragon Elephant Power is at least high-level. What a pity.”
At this point, her face showed a look of regret.
Because Dragon Elephant Power was just a low-level martial art, if Jack Clark practiced a high-level power type skill, perhaps he might have a chance to catch up to Jane Aiken.
Jack was not concerned, “It’s okay. Once I cultivate Dragon Elephant Power to its grand accomplishment and accumulate enough contribution points, I can exchange it for a high-level skill.”
“Maybe by then, I’ll be even more compatible with that skill.”
As long as the main True Martial Art was cultivated to its grand accomplishment, it could be replaced with higher level skills of the same type, which would automatically overwrite the original True Martial Art.
Therefore, Jack was not too worried about the fact that Dragon Elephant Power was a low-level martial art.
During the waiting period, seeing that there was still time, Jack Clark’s consciousness involuntarily sank, and his perspective suddenly switched to the Heavy Armored Beast’s.
In the dry cave, the ninety-centimeter-long Heavy Armored Beast slowly opened its eyes, stretched its limbs, and entered the river through the underground cave entrance.
Gurgle! Gurgle!
Bubbles rolled, and the Heavy Armored Beast gently swayed its tail, its ferocious figure swimming towards the deeper part of the river.
Soon, at the ten-meter-deep river surface, a half-meter-long grass carp appeared within the Heavy Armored Beast’s line of sight.
The black shadow lay quietly at the bottom of the river, motionless, like a piece of wood, watching the grass carp swim closer until half a meter away…
Bang!
Mud flew up, and the Heavy Armored Beast suddenly swung its tail, causing the water to explode behind him. Its figure resembled a sword shooting out, biting the head of the grass carp in one go.
Crack! The terrible biting force crushed the grass carp’s skull, making it extremely brutal.
The half-meter-long grass carp was quickly consumed by the Heavy Armored Beast, which then turned into a black shadow and disappeared, continuing to search for the next prey.
