Chapter 239: Chapter 206: Selection Tournament, I’ll Give You 1 Chance to Challenge Me! (Part 2)

As the man appeared, the temperature on the field slowly rose. He lifted his eyes towards Su Mu, who was sitting with eyes closed, and immediately the atmosphere was filled with tension.

"This person is Gu Ming, the chief of South China Martial Arts University!"

"Ranked ninety-ninth on the Celestial Pride List, Five Flames Sword Gu Ming? No wonder he dares to provoke Su Mu."

Yet, Su Mu, who was on the bench, didn’t even glance at him, as he didn’t even open his eyes.

Blatant disdain!

In an instant, Gu Ming felt immense humiliation, and his expression changed. With a raise of his eyebrow, the long sword in his hand let out a tremor.

Buzz---

Immediately, the air around Gu Ming began to distort, and amidst the surging heat waves, a massive flame faintly rose behind him, showing five distinct colors if examined closely.

"This aura... the Power of Heaven and Earth has been invoked, a Grandmaster Secret Technique, this is a Grandmaster Secret Technique!"

"I didn’t expect Gu Ming to have mastered a Grandmaster Secret Technique; to make it to the Celestial Pride List is indeed extraordinary. How will Su Mu respond now?!"

"The Grandmaster Secret Technique can unleash power comparable to a Grandmaster. Even Su Mu wouldn’t dare underestimate it, would he?"

However, Su Mu still didn’t open his eyes. Gu Ming lifted his long sword and pointed it at Su Mu.

"Could it be that you’re scared?"

Sikong Ba watching from a distance saw this and couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly, feeling a bit of admiration for Gu Ming, who dared to challenge Su Mu like this, watching the figure on the bench.

Sikong Ba’s right eyelid couldn’t stop twitching as the scene of Su Mu slashing Lin Peng with one strike and then cutting down the Lin Family Grandmaster with another flashed through his mind.

Dong!

The melodious bell sound echoed, reverberating across the sky, and then the stadium was filled with a wave of fierce cheers.

The Guangshen Province selection match began.

At this moment, Su Mu suddenly recalled a saying from Blue Star in a previous life, and a plan slowly formed in his heart.

"The best place to hide a withered leaf is in the forest."

"If there isn’t one, then create a withered forest yourself..."

...

"Welcome everyone to Yangcheng City Central Stadium to watch the Blue Star Alliance Guangshen Province selection match..."

"On behalf of the Huaxia Branch of the Blue Star Alliance..."

"On behalf of the Southern War Zone..."

After all the Grandmasters on the stage had spoken, Zhong Guoping, the president of the Guangshen Province Martial Artist Association, made the final announcement.

"Now, I announce the official start of this Guangshen Province selection match!"

Instantly, flashbulbs were everywhere.

Boom boom boom.

Fireworks filled the sky, forming a vivid picture of five goats, marking the grand opening of the selection match.

"Now let’s give a warm round of applause and cheers to welcome 200 contestants from 53 cities in Guangshen Province."

"First are the three Celestial Prides from the Huaxia Celestial Pride List."

"The first is from the Southern War Zone, One-Slash Asura, Su Mu!"

"One-Slash Asura!"

Instantly, the whole arena erupted in cheers, and under the spotlight, a tall and imposing figure emerged, as Su Mu calmly walked toward the center of the field.

In that instant, Su Mu’s close-up appeared on the eight giant screens above the stadium.

"It’s Dad, Dad is on stage!"

The entire audience was shouting the name One-Slash Asura and Su Mu, causing the blood within Su Mu to boil in an instant.

All the past flashed quickly before his eyes, and a figure in a security guard uniform vaguely appeared in front of Su Mu.

That was his former self, and the past Su Mu waved at him.

"I probably couldn’t have imagined back then that one day would stand on such a big stage, right?"

"Everything is just beginning!"

Su Mu glanced around the stadium, finally resting his eyes somewhere in the back, and in his determined eyes, there was a gentle flow, and he couldn’t help but smile slightly.

There he saw his excited daughter waving constantly, holding Foodie, and next to her Little Junior Sister and Little One were also cheering.

Beside the excited trio, Miaomiao had long stood up, looking proudly, as was her teacher.

"Next is Five Flames Sword Gu Ming from South China Martial Arts University!"

"The last is Overlord Spear Sikong Ba from the Martial Arts Family Sikong Family!"

Then one name after another was quickly announced by the host, and finally, a name was uttered from the host’s mouth.

"Lin Langtian."

"Finally appeared."

Su Mu squinted slightly, glanced up, and after one look, felt vaguely familiar, recalling for a moment but then shaking his head, as he had not met this person in the Lin Family.

Soon, all 200 contestants had taken the stage.

"Next, the draw for the selection match will take place. The first round will be divided into four stages where the competition will take place simultaneously to determine the top one hundred."

Quickly the draw concluded, and Su Mu’s number was 100. At this moment, the photographer even gave Su Mu a special close-up on the screen above, showing the name corresponding to the number.

Seeing this number, Su Mu was slightly stunned. He had also had the number 100 at the Three Cities Training Camp back then, which reminded him that he had a nickname there as well.

The Rule Breaker...

"East stage, number 1 versus 150, both contestants please come on stage."

"West stage, number 4 versus 28..."

"South stage, number 55 versus 65..."

"North stage, number 100 versus 177..."

On cue, four gigantic stages rose in the arena, each stage wholly forged from special alloy.

Su Mu took a big stride onto the northern stage. The first match just happened to be one of the three Celestial Prides, and the one ranked first, with the atmosphere in the arena exploding instantly.

"Go Dad!"

"Go Su Mu!"

"Go Uncle Wolf!"

In one corner of the stadium, among the 300,000 spectators, a woman wearing a sun hat and sunglasses yawned upon seeing Su Mu step onto the stage, her once lazy eyes now spirited up.
