Chapter 28: Actually, It’s Because of Insufficient Strength

After a moment of silence, Torriman thought for a moment and suddenly turned to look at Chu Nan.

“Chu Nan, although injuries are inevitable in a martial arts competition, this is still a competition between fellow students. It’s best for you to restrain yourself…”

Before Chu Nan could answer, Dong Fang stood up.

“I disagree! Teacher Torriman, we saw the battle between Chu Nan and Luo Li yesterday with our own eyes. You said that Chu Nan was ruthless, but I feel that Luo Li is even more ruthless than him. In my opinion, Luo Li’s move yesterday was clearly to take Chu Nan’s life!”

Everyone recalled the situation when Luo Li and Chu Nan fought yesterday and their expressions changed.

Dong Fang was right. Luo Li had put on a ferocious appearance yesterday.

With his physical strength as a fifth-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist and the famous Overlord Tiger Subduing Fist of the Luo family and even the entire Earth’s Federation, if Chu Nan was struck by this punch, he would probably be heavily injured even if he did not die.

In comparison, it was not a big deal for Chu Nan to kick his vital part, and it was a helpless action.

Otherwise, with the toughness of Chu Nan’s initial-stage Overlord Body, how could he be his match if he faced Luo Li head-on?

Torriman frowned, knowing that he had said something inappropriate.

He thought for a moment, coughed, and waved his hand.

“That’s not what I mean. It’s just that… Chu Nan, it’s fine for you to aim at other vital points, but it’s best not to aim at… er… that important part. Do you understand what I mean?”

The other male students immediately nodded.

Chu Nan stood up, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. His gaze swept past the other male students and finally landed on the distant Andre. He shrugged and nodded, “Alright, I’ll take note.”

“Very good.” Torriman nodded in satisfaction and turned to look at Andre, “Andre, are you still going to forfeit?”

When he heard Chu Nan agree, Andre’s expression immediately became excited again. He directly jumped onto the stage of the arena and his fists collided with each other, emitting a muffled bang. This displayed the super strength of a third-stage Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist.

“Come, Chu Nan! Let’s fight like men!”

Chu Nan shook his head and jumped onto the stage.

Torriman, who was still on the stage, opened his mouth. He wanted to tell them that the first match was not between the two of them, but after thinking for a moment, he gave up and directly announced the start of the competition.

The audience who had specially come for Chu Nan on the stage were originally confused by the actions of Torriman and the second grade students. Now that they finally saw that Chu Nan’s competition was about to begin, they put down the doubts in their hearts and focused on watching.

However, after staring at Chu Nan for a while, they revealed disappointed expressions.

Chu Nan and Andre had been fighting for a while.

The two of them did not use weapons. Their fists collided and often collided directly.

Although the muffled sounds were continuous and sounded very exciting, in the eyes of these senior students and teachers, it was undoubtedly still at an extremely low level.

“Could this Chu Nan only be at this level? If that’s the case, how can he defeat Luo Li’s fifth-stage Overlord Body?”

“That’s right. Although that kid Luo Li has poor character, he is indeed a martial arts genius. He has already cultivated a fifth-stage Overlord Body and has even learned the Luo family’s Overlord Tiger Subduing Fist. He can be considered extremely powerful among fifth-stage Overlord Body Martial Artists. Even many initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists are probably inferior to him. As for Chu Nan’s current level…”

“Actually, it’s not bad. Look, I think this Chu Nan’s body refinement is only slightly stronger than an initial-stage Overlord Body. I’m afraid he’s barely a second-stage Overlord Body. However, pay attention to his movements. Every time he moves, he can practically mobilize the strength of his entire body, so he’s not at a disadvantage when facing that kid with a third-stage Overlord Body.”

“Hmm, from the looks of it, he’s indeed not bad. But this still doesn’t make sense. How did he defeat Luo Li in one move?”

“Perhaps that kid Luo Li underestimated his opponent too much and allowed him to succeed in his sneak attack…”

“How is that possible? Luo Li has a fifth-stage Overlord Body. Even if he underestimated his opponent and stands there for Chu Nan to attack, he won’t be able to deal with it in one move.”

“This…”

The discussion of the other teachers beside him entered Rayne’s ears, causing his frown to deepen.

Unlike the teachers beside him, Rayne was a third-year teacher in the West Cloud Academy who was specially responsible for guiding external martial arts techniques. Therefore, although he was already an initial-stage Void Break expert, his research in external martial arts was still very profound.

In the eyes of the other teachers, Chu Nan’s actions could at most show that he could mobilize the strength in his body every time. However, when it entered his eyes, it revealed more information.

If they only mobilized all their strength, any martial artist who had cultivated their external cultivation to a certain extent could do it.

However, in Rayne’s opinion, the current Chu Nan was far from this level.

Not only did he mobilize his entire body’s strength, but he could even unleash almost every ounce of force perfectly in every move.

In the eyes of Rayne, an extremely outstanding Void Break Martial Artist, every action of Chu Nan was nearly perfect!

However, this was not the most surprising thing. What shocked him the most was that Chu Nan’s every action was extremely precise to a terrifying extent.

No matter what move the third-stage Overlord Body realm student used, no matter where his fist came from, he could always adjust his posture at the first moment and face it perfectly before displaying his strongest strength.

It was not difficult to achieve this once or twice in a battle, but to be able to do this every time, it could only prove that his understanding of external cultivation and martial techniques had already far surpassed his opponent, and it had even far surpassed martial artists of his level.

But that was what confused Rayne the most.

From his judgment, Chu Nan’s cultivation of external martial arts had clearly reached an astonishing level. In that case, even if his body was inferior to his opponent, he could easily win this battle with his external martial arts that far surpassed his opponent.

However, he just had to perfectly meet the other party’s fist every time and face this third-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist who was clearly much stronger than him.

This was not a smart move.

“Is this kid that stupid?” Rayne looked at Chu Nan and was puzzled.

Of course, Chu Nan was not that stupid.

There was only one reason why he chose this unwise strategy, and that was to gather enough combat data.

After sparring with that unknown senior last night, he realized that he could not casually mobilize his Internal Breath in the battle, but it was not impossible.

What he needed to do now was to turn this into the norm so that he could maintain his internal breath in battle.

To other martial artists, what was needed was a large amount of combat experience. To him, so-called combat experience was actually a large amount of combat-related data.

Every time he collided with Andre’s fists, he would obtain very detailed physical data when using this punch.

Not only did this data include the fist speed, angle, and other obvious statistics, but it also included the hidden data related to the muscles in all parts of his body when he used this punch, as well as the details of the circulation of internal energy in his meridians.

For example, he was unable to successfully utilize his Internal Breath in this punch, so his fist collided with Andre’s, and it emitted a muffled bang. His figure shook, and he could not help but take a step back.

Seeing that his fist had the upper hand, he immediately chased up and threw another punch.

Chu Nan did not have the time to think carefully. He adjusted his body slightly and twisted his body. He stepped back and cupped his fists. He suddenly felt a trace of internal breath flowing out from his dantian and flowed into his right arm through his meridians before finally fusing with his right fist.

Bang!

This time, when their fists collided, a muffled sound that was several times stronger than before could be heard. Due to Chu Nan mobilizing his Internal Breath, the force of his punch, which was as high as 683.323003 kilograms, directly forced Andre to take a few steps back. In the end, he could not stop his retreat and fell to the ground.

Seeing that Chu Nan was about to pursue him, Andre suddenly raised his hands.

“Stop! I admit defeat!”

“Ah?”

Be it the referee, Torriman, the second-year students below the stage, or the audience on the stage, they were all dumbfounded.

Both sides had always seemed to be on par, but this time, Chu Nan had inexplicably gained a slight advantage. Why did this kid suddenly admit defeat?

Only Chu Nan, who was on the stage, could not help but smile bitterly.

Needless to say, like the senior last night, Andre thought that he was actually deliberately hiding his strength.

However… he was not hiding his strength at all. It was simply because his strength was insufficient…
