Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain

Chapter 89 Opponent in the Semi-Finals

Rengal stared at Chu Nan on the virtual screen and seriously sized him up for a long time before a smile appeared on his rough face.

“Chu Nan, although I’ve seen you countless times through various channels in the past few days, this is the first time we’re talking directly. I’m very happy to see that you can still maintain a calm mood and high fighting

spirit.”

Chu Nan smiled and nodded at Rengal.

“I’ve seen you more times on the Martial Arts World Channel. However, in comparison, the video you publicly posted yesterday bothers me more.”

Rengal laughed, “You really came because of that video. However, I don’t think you came to find trouble with me because of that video. Then, why did you find me through Miss Yang Xirui?”

Chu Nan glanced at Yang Xirui. If not for her, it would probably be very difficult for him to obtain the chance to speak directly to the famous Heaven Control Realm Martial Artist, Rengal.

Of course, the most important reason why he could obtain this opportunity was probably his outstanding performance during this period of time.

“Why do you think I came to find trouble with you?” Chu Nan shrugged, “You only mentioned me in some of your analysis. I don’t think you did anything wrong.”

“Oh?” Rengal carefully looked at the expression on Chu Nan’s face on the virtual screen. After confirming that this young man did not seem to be lying, he could not help but feel curious, “You also think my analysis is very correct?”

“Yes. However…” Chu Nan paused for a moment and continued, “There are some problems that I don’t quite understand. For example, you emphasized that it’s because I was unable to refine and mature my body before it got completely fixed, so it would be extremely difficult to succeed in breaking through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future, right?”

“Yes. A martial artist’s body is the foundation of everything. If the body is not tempered sufficiently, it will affect all future development.” Rengal’s expression was serious as he nodded in agreement.

“Then, what can be considered tempering and maturing?” Chu Nan asked again, “Also, why is it difficult to continue tempering after the human body has completely grown? Will there definitely be flaws? I’ve checked some relevant historical documents. In fact, even if we don’t consider the entire Milky Way, just in the history of our Earth Federation, there are many famous martial artists who became stronger after getting older.” “Then have you ever checked how far these martial artists have reached before they turned 18?” Rengal asked.

Chu Nan was silent for a moment before shaking his head.

“There’s no statistics regarding this in the information. Only a few especially famous martial artists have detailed records. When they were young… they had indeed become Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists.” “So? Do you think I’m wrong?”

Chu Nan fell silent again. After a long time, he raised his head and continued to ask, “Then, is it possible that you can still continue to temper your body after you grow up and refine your body to an extremely perfect state so that it won’t be impossible for you to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate?”

Rengal looked at Chu Nan’s hopeful gaze and could not help but sigh deeply in his mind. This kid was indeed still unwilling to resign to fate.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, I can’t give you a completely certain answer. Although there has never been such a precedent in history, I can’t guarantee that there won’t be any exceptions in the future. Perhaps… you’re that exception.”

Chu Nan smiled.

“Thank you for your consolation. I know that the two Star-Grade Martial Artists and you have actually already confirmed in your minds that it’s impossible for me to break through that boundary in the future. However, I still want to give it a try. If I’m unwilling to even work hard and give up, then I’m utterly not worthy to be a martial artist, right?”

Rengal’s expression changed slightly as he glanced at Chu Nan with mixed emotions and slowly nodded.

“I admire you very much. Regardless of whether you can succeed in the future, I can confirm that you’re a martial artist worthy of respect and praise.”

Chu Nan laughed, “Senior Rengal, let’s talk about this in the future. The main reason why I found you this time is because I want to obtain more accurate guidance.”

“Oh? For example?”

“For example, what do you mean by body refinement and maturity? Is there a clear standard?”

“About this… the standard for body refinement to mature is to first be able to allow the Internal Breath to smoothly circulate throughout the entire body without any obstruction. Of course, this is only a requirement in the meridians. It can allow a martial artist to better become a qualified Internal Breath Martial Artist. If the refinement in this aspect is insufficient, even if one becomes an Internal Breath Martial Artist, because of the difference in the circulation of their Internal Breath, their strength will still be slightly inferior to an Internal Breath Martial Artist of the same level who has tempered their body to maturity.” “In addition, there are also requirements for the muscles and bones…”

Noon had just passed in West Cloud City when groups of spectators gathered at the scene of the martial arts competition again.

There were even many spectators who had come from afar who had never left. They directly finished their lunch around the competition venue and focused their attention on the draw for the semi-final that was about to begin in the afternoon.

Unlike the preliminaries, after entering the finals, the opponents in each round would draw lots again. Therefore, before the result of the draw was out, no one knew who the opponents were.

The competition of the semi-final would begin tomorrow, but it would be held this afternoon to draw lots to determine the opponents between the two rounds.

To the audience of the Earth Federation, they were naturally more concerned about what kind of opponent the Earth Federation’s participating martial artists would encounter in the next round.

In the morning’s quarter-finals, one of the three Earth Federation martial artists in the adult group had been accidentally eliminated. However, two of them still entered the top four and entered the semi-finals.

The audience was very concerned about the outcome of the adult group’s draw.

If two martial artists of the Earth Federation were to draw each other in the semi-finals, that meant that one of them would definitely be eliminated.

However, on the other hand, one person would definitely enter the finals.

If they were separated in the semi-finals, then thinking about it negatively, it was possible for the two of them to be eliminated at the same time. On the bright side, both of them could enter the finals at the same time and the martial artists of the Earth Federation would definitely win the championship. Naturally, this was the best outcome.

Therefore, the results of these two lots were acceptable. It depended on whether the prediction was pessimistic or optimistic.

However, it was different for those under the age of 20.

Chu Nan had obtained victory in the quarter-finals in the morning. Although it was exciting for him to successfully enter the semi-finals, according to the analysis of the media, the remaining three opponents were all extremely powerful young genius martial artists. Their strength was even higher than the opponent he had defeated previously.

Among these opponents, the most shocking performance was Maruk from the Kingdom of Kexley and his participant number was 9527.

From the beginning of the preliminaries, Maruk easily defeated his opponent in every match in a few minutes. He did not give any opponent any chance to counterattack and displayed unbelievable strength.

According to the analysis of the various major media outlets, just the standard displayed by Maruk in the previous few rounds had even surpassed most ordinary second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artists.

On the other hand, considering that he had also easily defeated an opponent with the strength of a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist in the previous eight-to-four competition, he probably still had some reservations. His true strength would only be even more terrifying.

There were even many people who guessed that this Maruk might already have the powerful strength of a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist far beyond his age.

If that was the case, it could be said that there was no possibility of winning if Chu Nan drew him.

After all, when Chu Nan defeated a few Internal Breath Martial Artists, every match was extremely dangerous. He even nearly lost the competition.

Although a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist was only a level higher than a second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, their strength was completely different.

It was extremely difficult for Chu Nan to defeat a second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. There was even some luck involved, so how could he defeat a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist?

Therefore, before the result of the draw was out, many of the audience from the Earth Federation prayed in their hearts that Chu Nan would not face this Maruk.

In comparison, although the other two young martial artists who had entered the semi-finals were also very strong, based on their past performance, they were probably only second-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists. Chu Nan still had a possibility of winning

At 2 PM, the drawing ceremony began on time.

Other competitions below the age of 20 were drawn first.

Under the gaze of countless live audiences and reporters, Chu Nan was the first to walk forward and choose his opponent.

A moment later, Chu Nan chose his opponent from the original lottery box and the name of his opponent immediately appeared on the virtual screen.

It was Maruk.
