Chapter 138: The Bald Head Rising!
Chen Ye was growing stronger every day!
Since the last ti he tested his Fire Fist back ho in Lin'an, his attributes had increased by several hundred points, significantly boosting his overall power.
With his current strength, the wind generated by his punch, combined with his fire ability, ford a "Fire Fist." Whether it had reached the Tier 5 standard was uncertain, but it was undoubtedly much stronger than before.
Seeing Chen Ye's "Fire Fist" and the terrifying power it carried...
Master Shiwu was instantly paralyzed with shock.
In his heart, he cursed loudly!
He had never imagined that this kid's fire ability could be so strong!
His injuries hadn't fully healed.
It had only been two months since he was severely wounded.
If not for his strong physique and excellent recovery ability, with such injuries, he should still be lying in the hospital!
At this critical mont, Master Shiwu suddenly shouted:
"I surrender!!"
Instantly, the massive Fire Fist that Chen Ye had unleashed was nullified by an invisible force.
Chen Ye also received a notification that he had advanced to the next round.
He was dumbfounded, looking at Master Shiwu in surprise: "Monk, didn't you say you'd let have three moves? Why did you surrender so quickly?"
Master Shiwu glared at Chen Ye fiercely, didn't explain, and stepped into the portal to leave.
In truth, even though Chen Ye's Fire Fist was powerful, Master Shiwu could have blocked it if he had dared to risk it.
But Master Shiwu ultimately chose to give up.
Because he couldn't afford to get injured again.
The doctor had warned him that if he engaged in another fight with a strong opponent and got injured again, it would worsen his condition, severely affecting his recovery.
At that point, he might not even be able to maintain Tier 5 strength.
Co on!!
He had co to this national secret realm just to tag along with Qin Muyin and earn so potential points, not to fight to the death!
As for the embarrassnt of surrendering?
Haha!
Everyone would forget what happened once the secret realm ended.
At worst, he'd be laughed at for a couple of months!
Master Shiwu didn't care anymore.
Once they were out, who would rember that he had surrendered to a junior?
With this mindset, Master Shiwu surrendered!
Seeing the bald monk shalessly flee, Chen Ye could only sigh in exasperation.
This bald guy had really learned to be crafty—quite the talent!
Then, he too left the arena...
...
The entire audience was in an uproar!
No one had expected that Master Shiwu, a dignified Tier 6 powerhouse, would actually surrender to a young man.
His surrender this ti was completely different from Zhou Da's earlier voluntary surrender.
After all, everyone knew that the enforcent team and the Ability Users Association didn't get along.
Chen Ye was Chairman Chen's son, while Master Shiwu was the deputy captain of the enforcent team.
No one would believe it if soone said the two had any kind of relationship.
Moreover, they had already started the fight, so Master Shiwu's sudden surrender was clearly an act of fear...
"What's going on? Why did Master Shiwu surrender?"
"Was he scared? Was that kid's move really that terrifying?"
"Idiot, it's obvious Master Shiwu was injured and hasn't recovered yet. He didn't want to worsen his injuries, so he surrendered."
"Bro, your analysis matches mine. Before the fight, they exchanged so words—probably Master Shiwu wanted to give the junior a chance, but didn't expect that young master Chen's fire ability was so unexpectedly strong. Master Shiwu didn't want to risk getting injured, so he surrendered."
"But... for a dignified Tier 6 powerhouse to surrender like this, isn't it a bit humiliating?"
"Humiliating? Haha, is humiliation worse than getting injured? Besides, once this secret realm ends, who will rember what happened?"
"But that young master Chen's move just now looked so impressive! Did it reach Tier 5 in power?"
"Even if it didn't, it's probably not far off."
"Tier 5? Impossible, right? How many secret realms has young master Chen been through? Does he have that much spiritual power?"
"Anyway, young master Chen's performance this ti is truly eye-opening!"
...
On the rooftop of House No. 9527.
When Master Shiwu returned, he saw many people looking at him with mocking expressions.
Master Shiwu sat down expressionlessly, pretending not to notice.
He suddenly realized that he was here just to earn so potential points, and as long as he t his goal, there was no need to show off.
However, Steward Jiang wasn't going to let such a good opportunity slip by. He joked, "Master, I rember you saying that if young master Chen turned out to be a skilled fighter, you'd eat your chair? And if he made you take a step back, you'd call him your father on the spot?"
"I was joking," Master Shiwu said indifferently. "Can't I?"
"Uh..."
Steward Jiang was montarily speechless.
As long as Master Shiwu decided to play dumb and not care about his reputation, there was nothing Steward Jiang could do to mock him.
At this mont, a young man next to him suddenly asked quietly, "Master, was that young master Chen's fire ability really that strong? Did it reach Tier 5 standards?"
Master Shiwu frowned.
But since this young man was on his side, he thought for a mont before answering, "It probably didn't reach Tier 5, but it's close... I didn't expect that kid's fire ability to be so strong. If the doctor hadn't told not to fight for now, it wouldn't have been hard for to take him down."
He didn't lower his voice, so this explanation also served to restore so of his dignity in front of others.
Everyone finally understood Master Shiwu's thoughts.
The young man then smiled and said, "Master, you did the right thing. Getting injured in this secret realm isn't worth it. With the captain here, we'll definitely achieve a good ranking like every year."
This statent earned so scoffs from the crowd, but internally, they all agreed.
As for Qin Muyin, her face, filled with heroic spirit, remained calm as always.
Even if Chen Ye's fire ability had reached Tier 5, she still wasn't impressed.
...
*"Whoa! Master Shiwu the Bald Monk actually surrendered?"*
On the rooftop of House 19.
Soone laughed out loud, "Chairman Chen, your son is sothing else!"
A core mber beside him agreed, "That Fire Fist move just now must have reached the Tier 5 standard! Chairman Chen, it looks like your son is going to follow in your footsteps!"
Hearing his colleagues praise his son, Chairman Chen couldn't help but feel overjoyed inside. However, he remained humble on the surface and said, "Not at all, not at all, that brat just loves to show off. He's still got a long way to go!"
...
Master Shiwu's voluntary surrender caused quite a stir.
When Chen Ye returned to the rooftop of House 168, he saw everyone staring at him in shock.
"Why is everyone looking at like that?" Chen Ye asked with a smile. "Are you all amazed by my strength? Or were you just impressed by how cool that move was?"
Cao Yu imdiately exclaid, "Damn! Old Chen, I really didn't expect you to be this strong! That punch just now, its destructive power was at least Tier 4, right?"
"Cao Yu, you're wrong!" Old Liu corrected from the side. "That move Chen Ye used just now, although it hasn't been tested, was clearly extraordinary. The destructive power was at least 4 ."
For people like them who frequented testing sites, it was easy to gauge the level of destructive power.
After speaking, Old Liu looked at Chen Ye with deep interest and continued, "Chen Ye, I didn't expect your fire ability to be so powerful after getting the Elental Magic Crystal Core. Could it be that Chairman Chen's crystal core is different from the usual ones?"
Chen Ye just shrugged and didn't bother explaining further.
Cao Yu then asked, "Old Chen, was that move just now your strongest attack? Are you hiding any more strength?"
"If you're talking about fire abilities, then yes, that was my strongest move," Chen Ye replied honestly.
He wasn't lying.
For now, he could only produce that level of destructive power using his fire ability in conjunction with his punches.
However, fire ability was just a toy to him...
Cao Yu looked slightly disappointed.
Ren Qianqian imdiately asked, "Cao Yu, what's with that expression?"
Cao Yu replied truthfully, "I was just hoping that if Old Chen had more strength hidden, maybe he could actually lead us to a good ranking!"
Ren Qianqian rolled her eyes, "Can you stop daydreaming? Besides, Chen Ye is already impressive enough, alright? 4 level! Among the new students, only the class monitor can compare to him."
At this mont, Shao Wenhui suddenly asked, "Isn't Master Shiwu supposed to be a Tier 6 powerhouse? Why did he surrender?"
"You silly girl!" Ren Qianqian said, "Didn't the principal say earlier that the monk was severely injured? He was probably scared!"
Zhao Zheng didn't say much, just smiled and said, "Senior Brother, congratulations on advancing to the next round!"
Even Principal Lu looked at Chen Ye with newfound respect.
"I didn't expect that after obtaining the Elental Magic Crystal Core, your fire ability would be so strong. I bet Chairman Chen is smiling from ear to ear right now," Principal Lu said, patting Chen Ye on the shoulder. "Do your best. As long as you get a bit lucky and don't get matched against a powerhouse, you might actually lead us into the top 100."
Ren Qianqian quickly chid in, "Principal, you shouldn't say such things—you just had bad luck earlier..."
This girl was really bold, daring to say sothing like that.
Fortunately, Principal Lu was good-natured and laughed, "Is that so? Then I take back what I just said."
"It's too late!" Ren Qianqian said. "Once it's said, it can't be taken back."
...
The second round of elimination matches took half the ti of the first round, ending in just five days.
Compared to the first round, where weaklings fought each other, the second round was much more interesting, with many strong fighters erging.
After two rounds, there were only three people left in Wuda's main team!!
Chen Ye, Zhao Zheng, and Teacher Liu!
Even Sister-in-law Gao Ye was eliminated in the second round.
Her opponent wasn't well-known, but it turned out they were just low-key—a hidden Tier 5 expert! This ti, they made a na for themselves by defeating Sister-in-law Gao Ye.
There were quite a few people like that.
In this world, there are always so who don't care about fa at all and are solely focused on pursuing strength.
To be honest, after Sister-in-law Gao Ye was eliminated, the people at Wuda fell into despair.
This sense of despair lingered even now!
Everyone believed that Wuda had no chance of breaking into the top 100 this ti.
Even though Chen Ye was "a dark horse," it didn't change anything.
After all, while Chen Ye's fire ability was strong, his most powerful move only had a 4 level of destructive power. If he encountered even a slightly stronger Tier 5 opponent, he'd be eliminated.
In the earlier rounds, luck might help him advance.
But later on, those who remained would definitely be strong opponents.
At that point, it would co down to raw strength!
And with all of Wuda's Tier 5 powerhouses eliminated, they simply didn't have the necessary strength.
Today was the day the third round of elimination matches began.
On the rooftop.
The mbers of Wuda's main team were almost all in low spirits.
Even Zhao Zheng and Teacher Liu, who hadn't been eliminated yet, wore gloomy expressions.
As for Sister-in-law Gao Ye, she didn't even show up, choosing to stay in her room and sleep in.
She had clearly given up!
Only Tang Zichen still looked full of energy, her eyes filled with anticipation..
