CHAPTER 356: CHAPTER 178: GORGEOUS SENIOR SISTER ACTIVATES A MAP CANNON!_1

Jing University Stadium.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the man and woman on the platform went straight into combat. Both students from the Institute of Qi and Blood, their fight was so intense and physical that the audience below found it thoroughly satisfying to watch. Among them, Zhang Fei’s offense was particularly fierce, at times completely dominating Qi Yue, who was big and stout. Her moves were sinister and ruthless, aiming for vital points with each strike: Eye-stabbing Finger, Throat-cutting Palm, Death-slicing Scissor Leg, Sterilization Leg... She was as vicious as it gets, causing Qi Yue to retreat step by step on the platform.

"My God, is this really a woman?"

"Qi Yue, you can’t lose to a girl, right? That would be so embarrassing!"

"I’ve always said that Qi Yue is just a big dumb brute with no brains, relying only on his physical fitness while his actual combat skills are practically non-existent."

"That’s true, but no matter what you say, in the face of absolute physical dominance, all skills are useless."

"You’re right about that, but that only applies when there’s a huge disparity in physical fitness. When the physical attributes of two people are nearly equal, skills become the deciding factor."

"Just like the two on the platform now: with similar physical capabilities, that first-year female newbie is suppressing Qi Yue."

"Qi Yue is trash! Refund my damn money!"

As the fierce battle raged on the platform, the bystanders were all voicing their opinions and giving their own take on the fight. Among them, students who had bet on Qi Yue to win cursed loudly as they saw him steadily losing ground. Of course, they only dared to swear from within the crowd. After all, as lousy as Qi Yue could be, he was still a renowned Evolution Strongman. If he happened to take note of them and held a grudge, their days would not be pleasant.

"Damn, Zhang Fei, this tough girl, is really something! To be able to exchange blows with a fourth-year from the list—that’s just incredible!" Yao Yi exclaimed, shocked at Zhang Fei’s performance on the platform.

A first-year newbie, and a girl at that, was actually dominating a senior from the same institute! Are all new students this outrageous nowadays?

Yao Yi was shocked, while Chen Baoyi beside him watched with a look of longing. The scene of Zhang Fei overpowering a male student hit all the right spots for her, giving her a thrill. She, whose Creature Level was only in the Half-step Rare Level Category, also imagined herself dominating men in fights like Zhang Fei, especially under the gaze of many spectators, directly overcoming and defeating an upperclassman. The mere thought is exhilarating, almost enough to set me ablaze.

It’s a pity that I’m just a Semi-Rare. Chen Baoyi sighed heavily, feeling quite disappointed. Her own physical talents were average at best; she had been admitted to Jing University due to local recruitment advantages and could only languish at the bottom of her cohort—and at the bottom of the Institute of Beast Taming, at that. It seemed she was destined to spend her life taming beasts within the institute, with no hope of ever climbing the ranks.

"Su Yan, who do you think will win?" Seeing Su Yan staying silent, Yao Yi beside him initiated a conversation.

Su Yan smiled and responded, "Obviously, Zhang Fei has a greater chance of winning. I feel like her combat skills are excessively advanced; she’s been able to suppress a senior who has a physical advantage. In this regard, I am far from her equal."

"You’re joking, right, Su Yan?" Yao Yi said with an exasperated expression. "A genius of your caliber—your combat skills can’t be inferior to Zhang Fei, whom you easily overpowered, can they? You’re quite the sly genius; I’d be foolish to believe you." He felt that Su Yan was just pretending to be humble to get some Versailles-style compliments:

You’re actually incredible!

Zhang Fei is your defeated opponent; you could take her down with a single slap!

Genius Su, you must be joking!

...and other such flattery.

Faced with Yao Yi’s skepticism, Su Yan shrugged helplessly and said, "You might not believe it, but when I fight, it’s always with a Level advantage. Combat skills aren’t really my strong suit; I might even be worse than you."

"Heh." Yao Yi let out a cold laugh, then said with disdain, "Do I look like a fool to you?"

"Yes," Su Yan nodded without hesitation.

Yao Yi: "???"

After a moment of being dumbfounded, Yao Yi turned to Chen Baoyi beside him and said, "Baoyi, Su Yan is just too Versailles. I suggest you talk less with him in the future."

"A little..." Chen Baoyi agreed, a rarity for her.

Su Yan: "..."

As they chatted, the battle on the platform was drawing to a conclusion. Finally, under Zhang Fei’s Sterilization Leg, Qi Yue knelt on the spot. Then, to the shocked gaze of the onlookers, he curled up on the ground in agony, utterly defeated.

"Qi Yue actually lost to a newbie, and a female one at that!"

"This is too surreal!"

"This year’s freshmen seem a bit too strong. Including that girl on the platform, three of them have already made it onto the list."

"Keep in mind, school’s only been in session for four days, and these freshmen are just ridiculously strong!"

"HISS! Terrifying!"

Seeing Qi Yue’s defeat, some of the senior students in the audience couldn’t help exclaiming in surprise.

And Yao Yi, standing beside Su Yan, clutched his own groin, wincing in sympathy as he said, "Zhang Fei’s so ruthless. That big, dumb Qi Yue is probably ruined, right?"
