    Chapter 143: Victory (Monthly Ticket Request at Month’s End)

    Virtual space.

    “That student named Nick, he’d never logged into the battle platform before, and then directly fought his way into the top twelve?”

    “Even Gu Jian Tong was defeated… He definitely has skills, probably a senior from the top five years or even higher.”

    The virtual space currently can’t materialize Martial Dao power above the Golden Core stage, so the highest level is peak External Manifestation.

    As long as it’s still External Manifestation, Fang Xing wasn’t afraid.

    He was thinking about something else.

    Since he got onto the battle rankings in his second semester of freshman year, he had stayed in ninth place for almost two years, accumulating over forty credits.

    Furthermore, he received about ten credits each year from freshman to junior year.

    Aside from the two times he understood the Wanling Diagram, he had no other expenses.

    Now his credits had accumulated to seventy!

    “Theoretically, in another year, I can exchange for a ‘Returning Yang Water’…”

    “But if I lose my ranking on the battle platform, I’ll have to delay for two or three years… directly delaying it until after my internship…”

    “Without a doubt, this is Wei Shentong’s revenge… or should I say… a small act of petty difficulty?”

    Fang Xing looked at the challenge request and directly pressed it: “You challenge me, you have to agree to it? Rejected!”

    Somewhere in the virtual space.

    Several members of the Blood Slaughter Squad gathered together.

    Nick, a young man with slightly curly hair and red pupils, shook his head: “He rejected my challenge…”

    “That Fang Xing must know the captain is powerful, so he’s scared.”

    A female team member looked at Nick with adoration.

    “This is meaningless. By the end-of-month challenge, even if he wants to escape, he won’t be able to…”

    Nick smiled: “Now the battle platform mechanism has been revised several times… With my current ranking to challenge him, he cannot refuse!”

    “Let him be arrogant until the end of the month. Does he really think he’s something just because he’s ninth in the university?”

    Another senior student folded his arms: “If we hadn’t been constantly fighting in the secret realm and were too lazy to play these childish games… the battle rankings would have been completely rearranged.”

    “You can’t say that. Huyan Qiushui, Luo Kai, Dark Star, they are still very strong.”

    A serious expression appeared on Nick’s face.

    These few were true geniuses; even he himself wasn’t necessarily confident in defeating them.

    Time quickly passed to the end of the month.

    In the virtual space, the traffic was unusually high.

    Every end-of-month challenge, the battle platform would be very lively.

    On the virtual battlefield.

    Fang Xing flicked his finger, a beam of sword light pierced the heavens and the earth, beheading his opponent.

    The next moment, he saw his automatically assigned opponent: “Sure enough… Nick?”

    Rumble!

    Dark clouds gathered in the sky, with lightning and thunder.

    On a green grassland.

    Fang Xing saw the young man with curly hair and red pupils opposite him: “What year are you in?”

    “Seventh year…”

    Nick smiled: “Just returned from the battlefield, so I came to the battle platform to play a few rounds.”

    He didn’t mention Wei Shentong at all, making it seem like he was just here for fun.

    “Heh…”

    Fang Xing neither confirmed nor denied it: “Let’s begin!”

    “Junior, let your senior teach you what real battle is.”

    Nick raised his hand.

    Fire!

    A spark appeared on his fingertips, then it became like a city engulfed in flames, with fire filling the sky!

    The surroundings instantly turned into a fiery hell, and even the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be burned and evaporated…

    “Domain of Fire?”

    “Such strong domain power, he’s already at the peak of External Manifestation, right?”

    Dragon roars and tiger howls surrounded Fang Xing, vaguely transforming into a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram.

    In the area covered by this diagram, not a single flame could exist, the lawn remained emerald green.

    “Oh?”

    Nick laughed loudly: “Ninth place on the battle rankings, you do have some skills!”

    A blood-red long knife appeared in his hand, and his entire aura changed drastically, from his previous frivolousness to a battle-hardened soldier returning from the battlefield, stained with blood!

    S-Class Martial Art – Blood Battle Thirteen Styles!

    Nick struck with his knife, the sky overturned, the raging flames rolled back, transforming into a towering flame giant, seemingly wielding a long knife simultaneously!

    The giant fiery blade seemed to sweep away everything, slashing down towards Fang Xing!

    “The captain is getting serious.”

    Outside the viewing platform, the other members of the Blood Slaughter Squad were there, and seeing this scene, a smile appeared on their faces: “I bet Fang Xing won’t last three strikes!”

    “Two strikes!”

    “One strike!”

    The female team member seemed to have the most confidence in Nick, saying confidently: “Back then, when the captain was in the secret realm, the Blood Battle Thirteen Styles, thirteen consecutive strikes, consecutively splitting thirteen high-ranking servants… what’s this Fang Xing?”

    “Humph, I think your captain is just average, thirteen strikes might not be enough to win.”

    At this moment, a young girl’s voice rang out from the side.

    She had a bun hairstyle, delicate features, and it was Gu Yun!

    “A mere student from a second-rate university… I don’t bother with you!”

    The Blood Slaughter Squad members sneered, completely ignoring her. For them, arguing with a young student like Gu Yun would be truly embarrassing!

    Seeing this, Gu Yun became even angrier, her small chest rising and falling rapidly. She hated being ignored the most!

    At this moment, the situation in the arena had changed!

    Around Fang Xing, the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram suddenly condensed, transforming into a sword-like shape, meeting the giant’s fiery great blade!

    The sword moved like a rainstorm, countless streams of water suddenly appearing in the world.

    The autumn waters surged, washing the world!

    The raging flames actually began to extinguish massively, without even much smoke.

    “Excellent swordsmanship!”

    Nick failed with one strike, immediately striking again.

    This time, the sword light carried wisps of blood-red, which was almost substantial killing intent!

    Clang! Clang!

    Sword and knife clashed, countless sword and knife lights crisscrossed.

    In the end, the long sword formed from Fang Xing’s domain power actually broke!

    Two figures met in mid-air. Fang Xing once again produced a bluish-green blade, fighting Nick together.

    “I take back what I said before, this Fang Xing is indeed powerful…”

    A Blood Slaughter Squad member sighed.

    “But he still can’t beat the captain, the captain is very strong… especially the Blood Battle Thirteen Styles, once it continues, the momentum of the blade will never cease, the power can be infinitely superimposed… especially the thirteenth strike, the power is earth-shattering and soul-stirring, not to mention… there’s a fourteenth strike!”

    The female team member said the same.

    “Heh…”

    Gu Jian Tong shook his head as he listened from the side: “What Blood Battle Thirteen Styles… perhaps it’s a powerful S-class martial art, but I’ve fought with both of them and I know that Nick only cultivated this martial art to its peak… but Fang Xing has already brought a sword technique to the pinnacle…”

    Although the Ghost God Blade was only an A-class martial art, Fang Xing now unified his studies into the Star Martial Three Absolutes, and in Pan Xiong’s evaluation, it also had the might of an S-class art!

    Swish!

    Two beams of sword light flashed.

    Fang Xing looked at Nick who had already made thirteen strikes, and nodded: “Your swordsmanship is good… after thirteen strikes, there should be a fourteenth strike, right?”

    Nick fell silent, feeling an ominous premonition of his cards being seen through.

    Originally, he thought his Blood Battle Knife technique would be among the best in Blue Star University.

    However, unexpectedly, he lost to Fang Xing in terms of the subtlety of changes!

    In terms of proficiency, he was only a master-level swordsman, while Fang Xing had already reached the grandmaster level!

    “Fourteenth strike!”

    A flame seemed to burn in Nick’s red eyes.

    At this critical moment, he still chose to believe in the knife in his hand.

    The sword light in the sky changed, as if it had come alive, bringing about different changes!

    “This boring game is over.”

    Fang Xing’s long knife dissipated, golden light flashed in his eyes, a layer of gold appeared on his fingers, and he extended his hand forward!

    Tear!

    The raging sword light dissipated. The blood-red battle knife was actually pinched between his two fingers, like a snake grabbed by its seven inches.

    No matter how much force Nick used, he couldn’t move it at all!

    “Impossible!”

    This scene was unbelievable not only to Nick, but also to the onlookers.

    “Fang Xing…”

    Huyan Qiushui’s eyes flickered, a smile appearing on her face: “To actually cultivate the Dragon Elephant Technique and the Mahāvajra-Prajñā Divine Power to such a level… if he really wants to snatch it, my third place might not be stable…”

    Bang!

    In the scene, Fang Xing used his two fingers, breaking the blood-red battle knife in half.

    Then, he pointed out, and a large hole was blown open in Nick’s chest, and his body flew backward…

    Wei Shentong, seeing this scene, his expression suddenly became extremely unsightly.

    At this moment, a phone call came in, it was Pan Xiong.

    “Haha… Wei Shentong, have you seen my student’s performance?”

    Pan Xiong laughed heartily, seeming very happy.

    “I have, indeed heaven-sent talent.”

    Wei Shentong nodded, unsure of what Pan Xiong was up to.

    “Sigh… this student of mine has had a hard life, a bio-engineered human, a hard-working martial artist… only relying on his fists to reach his current position, if he is framed again, wouldn’t it chill the hearts of thousands of students?”

    Pan Xiong sighed, but his expression then carried a hint of playful mockery: “Say… if your superiors knew that you could have easily recruited such a genius, but because of your arrogance, you shut out such a talented individual, what would happen?”

    “Nothing will happen. Before a genius is fully grown, they’re always just a genius.” Wei Shentong’s face remained expressionless: “You are… threatening me for your student?!”

    “No, no, no… I just think that in the university, fairness should be valued, don’t you think?”

    Pan Xiong stopped there.

    Anyway, as long as he was watching, Wei Shentong couldn’t act too far.

    Besides, Wei Shentong was after all at the Mahāvajra Realm, a figure who had a slight chance of becoming a Martial God in the future.

    Offending him too much would also be bad.

    “Moreover… Fang Xing is just a small student, it doesn’t matter what happens to him, but if it leads to your impression points dropping with the higher-ups, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?” Pan Xiong added with a smile.

    “You’re very good…”

    Wei Shentong narrowed his eyes: “It seems you’re very fond of this student, planning to introduce him to the academic faction?”

    “Haha, who knows what the future holds?”

    Pan Xiong shook his head: “I personally believe that in the future, these young people should be allowed to choose for themselves, don’t you think?”
