Everyone’s gaze turned to Gao Xingyu, their eyes carrying a trace of astonishment.
No way!
South God is already this freakish, and someone still wants to fight him?
Gao Xingyu is indeed recognised as the strongest in the year, but South God…
He bloody well isn’t human!
Xia Yao was so angry she stamped her feet, twisting her little face away.
Hmph! Annoying!
Xiao Chuohuo’s eyes lit up. “At least there’s one with some guts! You fight Jiang Nan. If you can beat him, first place is yours!”
In his heart he quietly hoped. Maybe this kid really could take down that stinking brat Jiang Nan!
That explosion just now was no joke!
If it really happened, seeing Jiang Nan eat a loss would be great!
Everyone was stunned. Really fighting?
Gao Xingyu also looked at Jiang Nan, eyes full of eagerness.
Jiang Nan grinned. “Sure! Let’s go to the arena!”
On the arena, Jiang Nan stood casually with hands in pockets.
Gao Xingyu, however, was solemn, spiritual energy surging all over his body.
Golden Eight level at his age was absolutely rare!
Gao Xingyu frowned slightly at Jiang Nan’s pocketed hands. “Still keeping your hands in pockets? Jiang Nan! I hope you drop the joking attitude and take this match seriously!”
“Otherwise! You might get hurt. Until I lose consciousness, I won’t admit defeat in this match!”
Jiang Nan paused, then his little face darkened.
Where am I not being serious?
I’m very serious, alright?
Do you have to make me take my hands out?
╭∩╮(。˘•~•˘。)╭∩╮
This should do, right?
Gao Xingyu: (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง
Still flipping the bird?
Aaaargh!
And the rings on both fingers say MB?
Who are you looking down on?
[Resentment value from Gao Xingyu +1000!]
[From Gao Xingyu…]
“Hmph! Looking down on me, are you? Just you wait!”
“Blood production activation!”
In an instant, Gao Xingyu’s face flushed red, veins bulging, blood dripping rapidly from his sliced fingertip!
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes.
You were the one who told me not to keep hands in pockets. Why are you getting yourself this worked up?
So strange!
Fine, I’ll be serious this once!
As he was about to grab his halberd, Jiang Nan’s face darkened further.
Both my hands are flipping the bird. How the hell am I supposed to hold the halberd!
Little Dimple, who had been watching Jiang Nan’s expression, said sweetly, “Master~ Let me help you!”
She picked up Jiang Nan’s great halberd in her mouth and tucked the pole into the crook of his left hand.
Jiang Nan’s heart felt incredibly sweet. This wasn’t a spirit pet. It was clearly like bringing a little wife home!
Holding the great halberd while flipping the bird was a bit awkward, but at least he could grip it!
On the arena, the referee asked, “Are both of you ready?”
Both nodded!
Everyone in the venue held their breath!
The referee brought his hand down sharply. “Begin!”
“Boom!”
The marble arena was cracked by Jiang Nan’s stomp!
With the enormous force plus teleport mobility, in mere microseconds, Jiang Nan was already in front of Gao Xingyu!
The Blood-Drinking Great Halberd swung horizontally in a violent arc, the air-splitting sound deafening!
Gao Xingyu only heard the referee’s “begin” when, in a daze, Jiang Nan was already charging at him!
In Jiang Nan’s eyes danced bone-chilling sharpness, rolling killing intent like dark clouds pressing down on a city!
At this moment, Jiang Nan in Gao Xingyu’s eyes was infinitely magnified, pressing down like a great mountain!
He no longer seemed like Jiang Nan, but a vicious wolf tearing at its prey’s throat!
Gao Xingyu’s face paled, hands and feet ice-cold, as if fallen into an ice pit, his heart enveloped by immense fear!
His body actually froze in place, unable to move!
Am I going to die?
I’m definitely going to die, right?
No! This is a match! Jiang Nan won’t kill me!
Move! Bloody move!
Gao Xingyu clenched his teeth, eyes bloodshot!
Just as he was about to raise his hand!
The Blood-Drinking Great Halberd that Jiang Nan had swung violently stopped dead right in front of Gao Xingyu’s neck!
From extreme motion to extreme stillness in an instant!
Yet the gust raised blew Gao Xingyu’s long hair wildly, kicking up dust all over the arena!
“Boom!”
The marble wall at the edge of the arena was actually cracked by this gust!
At this moment! The entire venue fell deathly silent!
Jiang Nan stood expressionless in front of Gao Xingyu, the great halberd already across his neck!
Even the referee was stunned!
I only just said begin, and it’s already over?
All the students stared wide-eyed, faces full of disbelief!
“Hiss~ Does South God not even need three seconds now?”
“I didn’t even see it, damn. That halberd swing was impressive. If South God hadn’t stopped, Gao Xingyu’s head would be gone!”
“Why didn’t Gao Xingyu move? He had a chance to counter! No way he’d be taken down instantly, right?”
Ye Xinghe: “Heh~ Move? You think it’s that easy? You try standing in front of South God? That feeling of deathly fear! I don’t want to experience it a second time!”
Last time fighting Jiang Nan in the Jade Dragon Spirit Ruins, Ye Xinghe had felt it!
That killing intent honed on the battlefield was no joke!
And the current Jiang Nan was even stronger than then!
In the stands, Xiao Chuohuo was not surprised by the result!
He said calmly, “See that? The difference between a killing sword and a performance sword!”
“This kid Gao Xingyu is still a bit green!”
Zhao Dezhu smiled bitterly. “Jiang Nan isn’t old, but he’s wandered the world. His hands are long stained with blood. Momentum suppression, tsk tsk tsk~”
“Should let these seedlings go out and get some experience!”
Xiao Chuohuo sighed worriedly. “That way people will die again. Alas~”
Why are there only a little over three hundred senior students left?
This is exactly the reason!
Xiao Chuohuo didn’t want to let the new students out too early. He wanted them to learn more life-saving skills in the academy!
But what needs to be experienced must be experienced!
Why is Jiang Nan terrifyingly strong?
Only because he experienced everything earlier than anyone else!
Gao Xingyu’s face was ashen, a bitter smile on his lips. In just this short time, his back was already soaked with cold sweat!
A serious Jiang Nan simply made it hard to breathe!
“I… forfeit!”
Even if unwilling, at his current stage he was no match for Jiang Nan! Not even ten of him would be enough!
Jiang Nan withdrew the great halberd and smiled brightly. “Your ability has great potential! But you need to understand, on the battlefield there’s no referee calling begin! No win or loss!”
“The one who lives is the winner. The loser is dead!”
Gao Xingyu bit his lower lip hard and nodded heavily!
Jiang Nan pulled out a vitality ginseng figurine and tossed it to Gao Xingyu. “Here~ Eat one. You’ll discover a new world. Next time you want more, it’ll cost money!”
Jiang Nan was never stingy about developing customers. This was called hunger marketing!
Gao Xingyu paused, looking at the shrivelled little ginseng with confusion!
New world? Is it really that amazing?
He stuffed it straight into his mouth and ate it!
The next moment, Gao Xingyu’s eyes widened, face flushing red, his fingertips spurting blood like a high-pressure water gun, howling as he sprayed!
From his nostrils, two columns of blood shot three metres out!
Gao Xingyu was stunned, face full of excitement!
Bloody hell! What kind of terrifying blood-production effect is this?
Compared to the little ginseng, his ultimate move is rubbish!
His blood can explode. If paired with the little ginseng?
Wouldn’t I take off right here?
“Bloody hell! South God, got any more? How much? I’ll buy!”
Jiang Nan grinned and pulled out his stall cloth, spreading it on the arena, pulling out little ginsengs one after another!
“100,000 each, no bargaining!”
Gao Xingyu’s eyes lit up. “Give me 100 first! Transferring, transferring!”
…
At this moment, watching Jiang Nan spread his stall cloth on the arena, all the students covered their faces!
What the hell!
Wasn’t this supposed to be the decisive battle for first place?
How did it turn into setting up a stall?
Why does everything with South God eventually turn into hawking goods!
Xiao Chuohuo’s face darkened. “Go, go! Set up somewhere else. First place is yours anyway. Don’t block their matches here!”
Jiang Nan pouted. Fine, no selling then!
He had already pocketed ten million anyway. Packing up the stall cloth, Jiang Nan slung it over his back and headed towards the senior student area!
I’ll sell over there!
Everyone covered their faces!
This is our year-group first?
He really never forgets his little stall business, no matter when!
Xia Yao pouted. Has Little Nan forgotten about our bet?
At this moment, the senior students watched Jiang Nan approaching with his stall cloth slung over his back and all shuddered!
He’s coming to wreck us again?
Don’t you bloody come over!
Yet in Jiang Nan’s heart, his little abacus was clacking away. The new student matches here aren’t worth watching!
The senior elimination rounds are exceptionally fierce. Perfect chance to sell!
Watch me pit… ahem! Watch me earn every penny from your pockets!
