On the top floor of the hotel.

Mu Yutong held a thick stack of information in his hand and was reading it seriously.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Soft knocks sounded on the door.

Mu Yutong did not even look up, “Come in, Yuanlin.”

The door was pushed open. Zheng Yuanlin slowly walked over and handed Mu Yutong a document.

After Mu Yutong received it, he said in a low voice, “Teacher, Luo Guangfu has already arrived. He’s waiting in the hotel hall.”

“Oh, let him wait a while. I’ll let him come up after reading this information,” Mu Yutong casually replied.

Zheng Yuanlin hesitated for a moment and wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Just say what you want to say. There’s no need to hide anything in front of me.” Although Mu Yutong did not look up, it was as if he had eyes on his head and saw Zheng Yuanlin’s expression.

“Yes, Teacher,” Zheng Yuanlin hurriedly replied. “There’s also another small matter that’s related to Chu Nan…”

Mu Yutong listened patiently and was silent for a moment. He shook his head and smiled, “Just treat it as a test for him. It’s fine.”

Seeing that Mu Yutong did not seem to mind, Zheng Yuanlin felt a little strange.

“Teacher, if this is true, I’m worried that Chu Nan might not even be qualified to participate in the martial arts competition. Then, wouldn’t your inspection of him…”

“I’m a special guest of this competition. I can recommend an additional participant.” Mu Yutong interrupted Zheng Yuanlin, “What you need to pay attention to is his actual performance. Do you understand what I mean?”

Zheng Yuanlin immediately understood and nodded.

Mu Yutong lowered his head and flipped through it for a while before finally reading the document in his hand.

“I thought that the Luo family was planning to refuse to comply until death this time. I didn’t expect them to be so good at taking advantage of the situation. I don’t have a good reason to attack them now.”

Zheng Yuanlin smiled and said, “These families have been able to survive for so long, so they more or less know some ways to survive. Teacher, you came representing the federation this time. Even if they don’t care about the federation, they will still be wary towards you. How can they dare to persist until the end?”

Mu Yutong smiled slightly and accepted Zheng Yuanlin’s small flattery.

After his fingers knocked on his leg for a while, Mu Yutong suddenly said in a low voice, “Yuanlin, do you know that our Mu family has already been called the next great family by many people on the North Gazing Planet?”

Zheng Yuanlin was shocked in his mind. He frowned and pondered for a moment before answering hesitantly, “Teacher, the reason why these noble families of the federation are hated by the ordinary citizens of the federation, and even seen as targets that must be eliminated by the federation, is because they control a large amount of resources but are unwilling to share them. It’s harmful to the development of the federation. Ever since you became a Star-Grade Martial Artist, you’ve always been working hard for the flourishing development of the federation’s martial arts and have made outstanding contributions to the federation. How can you compare yourself to these rotten noble families?”

“I might be fine now, but who can guarantee that our Mu family can still maintain this principle after I die?”

Mu Yutong sighed as if he felt that this topic was boring. He shook his head, stood up, and walked out with large strides.

“Call Luo Guangfu up. I’ll wait for him in the guest room.”

…

The final stage of the West Cloud Academy’s second grade martial arts competition was carried out calmly.

The third match had just ended. The outcome was not too out of the audience’s expectations and ended with the victory of a fourth-stage Overlord Body Realm student.

There were no accidents in the first three rounds. The winners were all students who were usually quite famous in the second grade.

In fact, this was the norm for this qualification competition.

After all, the second grade students had already studied in the West Cloud Academy for nearly two years. It could be said that they knew each other well and would often exchange pointers. Naturally, the vast majority of the results would not be unexpected.

The only exception was Chu Nan.

When he walked up the stage and prepared for the fourth match, the gazes of all the second-year students, including the audience, were focused on him.

If it was said that Chu Nan defeating Luo Li in the first match would make many people think that he had underestimated his opponent and caused him to lose his combat strength after kicking the most fragile part, then in the next three consecutive matches, everyone would admit that Chu Nan’s current strength was vastly different from before.

In these three rounds, Chu Nan’s opponents were a second-stage Overlord Body Academy and two third-stage Overlord Body students.

Although it had taken Chu Nan a long time to defeat them and it was not as easy as defeating Luo Li, it further proved his current strength.

Since he could use normal methods to defeat these three students in a normal battle, his current strength should at least be at the third-stage Overlord Body realm.

What made the other students sigh in surprise was that according to the situation revealed by Teacher Torriman, although the degree of tempering of Chu Nan’s body was slightly stronger than before, it was still only at the initial-stage Overlord Body realm and had even reached the standard of a second-stage Overlord Body.

He had tempered his body with the initial-stage Overlord Body realm flesh body, but he could defeat opponents at the second-stage Overlord Body realm or even the third-stage Overlord Body realm in succession. It could be seen how powerful his current external martial techniques were.

At this moment, the students came to a realization.

When Chu Nan defeated Luo Li, there was indeed the reason why the latter had underestimated his opponent. However, if not for Chu Nan’s powerful external martial arts technique, it was impossible for him to accurately aim at Luo Li’s weakness and kick his vital points.

Therefore, the way the other students looked at Chu Nan was completely different from before.

In the past, it was very difficult for Chu Nan to even beat an initial-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist. He was one of the last few among the entire second grade, so he naturally would not attract anyone’s attention.

Now, with just a few matches, he had already become the most hyped person in the entire second grade.

However, compared to Chu Nan, his opponent received quite a bit of attention.

According to Teacher Torriman’s introduction, this guy had actually suddenly transferred over yesterday. Moreover, he had obtained the special approval of the dean and the branch dean as soon as he arrived and was allowed to participate in the second grade’s qualification competition.

This kind of newbie was easily ostracized, not to mention that he had used such a method to forcefully cut the line. Naturally, it caused the second grade students to be extremely displeased in their hearts, and it caused everyone to look at him with slightly hostile gazes.

However, this guy called Lu Mingcheng had a very good mentality. After walking up the stage, he directly ignored the gazes of the audience and only stared at Chu Nan before laughing.

“Heh, your name is Chu Nan, right? I heard you defeated a fifth-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist the day before?”

Chu Nan inexplicably glanced at him, but he still could not understand where his hostility came from.

“Yes, why?”

“Nothing much. I only want to remind you not to think that you’re invincible just because you defeated a mere fifth-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist. Let me tell you, there are many martial artists stronger than you in this world!” Lu Mingcheng glanced at Chu Nan with an arrogant expression.

Chu Nan immediately laughed, “Aren’t you talking nonsense? There are still Internal Breath, Void Break, Heaven Control, and even Star-Rank above the Overlord Body Realm. There are countless martial artists stronger than me. Do I need you to remind me?”

“Hmph, since you know that there are still Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists above the Overlord Body Realm, do you think you can win against an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist?”

After asking this question, Lu Mingcheng raised his right foot and took a step forward.

As his right foot landed, a strange pale green aura suddenly flashed across his body and instantly condensed on his right foot.

Boom!

With this stomp, an abnormally muffled bang sounded. A few rocks actually flew out from the sturdy martial arts stage of the third arena.

Everyone focused their gazes over and noticed that spider web-like cracks had actually appeared on the ground where Lu Mingcheng’s right foot stepped on.

They looked at him in shock, their eyes filled with surprise.

His Internal Breath moved as he pleased, mobilizing freely around him.

This Lu Mingcheng was actually an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist!
