You Have Science, I Have Martial Arts-Chapter 534 - 249: More Experts?

There will be a seven-day interval between the following two rounds to allow each participating team to adjust their state, formulate strategies, or strengthen themselves in response to the upcoming battles.

The teams that come to the Imperial Capital to participate are all the strongest talents tempered and honed from within the province. Most of the participants’ strengths are not far apart, which makes the outcome of the competition unpredictable. Often, some detailed adjustments and changes can turn the final result around.

In previous years of the ’National Martial Competition’, there were many teams that took first place in the preliminary rounds but eventually lost the championship in the finals. This shows that the intensity of the ’National Martial Competition’ is very high, and a slight negligence and carelessness may lead to missing out on the trophy and a lifetime of regret.

Soon, according to the system’s draw, the first match after the opening ceremony will be between the Jinling Middle School team and the Linjiang First High School team.

A buzz arose from the audience seats.

Jinling Middle School and Linjiang First High School, both are one of the seeded strong teams in this competition.

All the captains are famous on the Hidden Dragon List, with Luo Yunchuan ranking eighth, Yann Xiyue fourth, and Ye Qingzhou topping the list, standing aloof and domineering among all.

"Starting the first match with such excitement?"

"The official is really pulling out all the stops, and it’s deadly!"

Everyone was eagerly anticipating what kind of sparks these two seeded strong teams would ignite, especially many spectators who had only heard that Ye Qingzhou was very strong but had never seen him in action. They were extremely curious about him.

On Jinling Middle School’s players’ bench, Luo Yunchuan looked bitter and couldn’t help but complain, "Are you kidding me? We have to fight the Great Demon King in the first match?"

The accompanying teacher was very nervous, "Luo Yunchuan, do you have confidence?"

"No."

Luo Yunchuan said unpleasantly, "If Ye Qingzhou plays first in the arena match, our best outcome would be to use five people to wear him out."

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

The Vice-Captain Bai Jifei was a bit unconvinced, "Brother Chuan, we at least have professional-level strength now, the gap shouldn’t be that big, right?"

After nearly half a year of intensive training, these martial arts apprentices who were already geniuses successfully stepped into the professional level one by one, so they were full of confidence and did not feel they were inferior to their peers.

"You don’t understand, the gap between professional levels is also very large."

Luo Yunchuan sighed deeply. By relying on family connections, he had the fortune of witnessing firsthand the Wind Force Sword Stances stored in the Sword Dao and saw Ye Qingzhou’s Dragon Ascending Sword Intent.

It was at that moment, all his previous dissatisfaction dissipated upon seeing the Sword Stances.

Now, about to face off against Ye Qingzhou personally, Luo Yunchuan still didn’t feel he had any chance of winning, even though he had used the insights from the Dragon Ascending Sword Intent to let his Wind Force reach the level of Mastery.

"I’ll go first in a moment."

"Captain, let us go first, let us wear down Ye Qingzhou’s strength to create an opportunity for you."

"It’s useless, this is not an opponent that tactics alone can defeat. Besides, even if I lose, I want to lose with dignity."

Luo Yunchuan clenched the silver spear in his hand. Despite knowing he was facing an unbeatable strong enemy, he showed no intention of retreating. Instead, he was full of fighting spirit, "I want to see how big the gap is between me and him."

At the same time, the martial arts prodigies ranked high on the Hidden Dragon List also gathered in the spectator seats, waiting for this battle to come.

"Jianshu."

"Leaping Dragon, you’re here too?"

Wu Yuelong sat down beside Li Jianshu. His body was tall and strong, his solid muscles full of a sense of power, yet every move gave a sense of grace and fluidity, like a flood dragon walking among the clouds.

"It’s not just me, Wang Huaxian and Lu Yiming have also come."

In this year’s ’National Martial Competition’, any team wanting to win the championship must face Linjiang First High School. If they can’t surpass Ye Qingzhou, the championship will be no more than an unattainable illusion.

So they came in person to see for themselves how powerful Ye Qingzhou really was, to better know oneself and the opponent.

Soon after, Wang Huaxian, as gentle and charming as an exiled immortal, and Lu Yiming, with eyes as sharp as knives, also walked towards the two.

Li Jianshu had already cultivated Bright Mirror Stilled Water, which can reflect all truth. His gaze fell on Wang Huaxian, as if he saw a Jiao Dragon transformed from Thunder True Qi, roaring to the sky, with lightning all around.

"You have cultivated Ten Thousand Feet Thunder Light?"

"To be able to see through my cultivation, Bright Mirror Stilled Water is indeed extraordinary."

"Alright, you two, stop praising each other here commercially."

Lu Yiming teased, then looked at the arena below, "Will Ye Qingzhou go first in a moment?"

"Nine times out of ten."

Wu Yuelong said with certainty, "As long as he performs outstandingly in today’s match, he will surely become the target of many forces vying to win him over. With so many benefits, and a chance to be in the spotlight, I don’t believe he won’t be tempted."

At this moment, the match list was announced.

"How could this be?"

Everyone showed expressions of astonishment.

Linjiang First High School’s first to fight turned out to be Xu Yuebing.

As for Ye Qingzhou, he was placed fifth in the arena match, clearly meant to be the anchor.

On the guest seats, Qi Shengtian and other martial artists were taken aback, then laughed, "This Ye Qingzhou has quite a personality, doesn’t he?"

"It’s normal for young people to have their own thoughts."

Zhang Qingyun’s expression was enigmatic, his eyes scanning left and right. It was clear that among all the Martial Saints who came today, most were here for Ye Qingzhou.
