It had been a few months since the apprenticeship ceremony. According to the usual practice, it was time for the freshmen to rush to the top.
The so-called rush to the top was for the freshmen from the outer three rings to rush to the inner ring to see which ring they could reach.
Because of Ou Shaotian, many freshmen had received guidance this year, including Wu Aoyi and the others. They had all entered the middle three rings early.
However, for most of the freshmen, the rush had only just begun.
After learning from the teacher for a few months, their strength had improved tremendously. It was time for them to rush to the inner ring.
Therefore, in the following period of time, the number of battle videos on the forum increased.
They were all battle videos of the freshmen rushing to the inner ring.
At noon, after class, Ou Shaotian gathered Luo Qing and the others and said, "You've learned enough. Are you all ready?"
"Yes, teacher. We're all ready."
"Then let's begin. Start from the eighth ring. Challenge one ring at a time. Let's see which ring you can reach!"
"Yes!"
After hearing Ou Shaotian's words, Luo Qing and the others, who were already prepared, became excited.
They were already impatient when the other freshmen started to challenge. However, Ou Shaotian had not spoken yet, so they had not started.
Now that Ou Shaotian had spoken, they could finally take action.
"I'll head back first. I'm looking forward to your next performance!"
Ou Shaotian left after he finished speaking.
Luo Qing and the others gathered together and began to study.
"How do we challenge? Do we pick the weakest person?"
Zhou Xiaojie was the first to speak.
"How is that possible? How can we show our strength if we pick the weakest? Let's pick the strongest and challenge dormitories one to five."
Long Xiaoyu looked at Zhou Xiaojie in disdain.
"Alright, we'll challenge dormitories one to five each. We'll choose according to the enemy. We'll try our best to restrain them!"
Luo Qing nodded and said.
"Okay, it's settled then!"
The others nodded.
Then, the five of them began to move while Long Yin followed them to watch the show.
Although they could directly challenge the middle three rings, according to Ou Shaotian's request, they had to challenge the inner rings one by one to increase their combat experience.
Without further ado, the challenge began.
With the arrival of the sprinting phase, most of the students stayed in the academy. Not only did the new students start sprinting, the older students did the same as well.
The rankings were constantly changing.
Those who were participating in the battle were participating in the battle, while those who weren't were also observing the battles of others.
Eighth Ring, Dormitory No.1 to Dormitory No.5. The targets of the challenge were all there. Luo Qing and the others found them as soon as they arrived, and they immediately issued a face-to-face challenge.
There was no need to make an appointment online. It was a waste of time.
"We are Teacher Ou Shaotian's students. We are now issuing a challenge to you. Teacher's request is to challenge all the way inside. You are just the beginning."
After the students from dormitory one to five came out, Luo Qing said aloud.
His meaning was clear. We don't need to snatch your dormitory. After defeating you, we will continue to challenge your dormitory.
The five seniors looked at each other. 'Are we born as stepping stones? Are we destined to be the background?'
"Fight!"
The five people shouted in unison.
As the ones being challenged, they didn't waste any time. Each of them took a spot and lined up, allowing Luo Qing and the others to challenge them.
"Alright!"
Luo Qing didn't waste any time and directly chose the students from dormitory one.
Long Xiaoyu chose dormitory two, Feifei Yu chose dormitory five, Zhou Xiaojie chose dormitory three, and Shi Xiaofeng chose dormitory four.
When they issued the challenge, Ou Shaotian, who was in the dormitory in the first ring, was also secretly watching through the radar.
The five fights began at the same time.
The five of them had a tacit understanding and attacked at the same time. Among them, Long Xiaoyu's attack was the fiercest. The power of the superior-grade Heaven-stage Heavenly Dragon Sword Technique was astonishing.
Long Xiaoyu had originally cultivated the Heavenly Dragon Sword Technique for many years. After Ou Shaotian's guidance and optimization, she broke through in one fell swoop, and her battle prowess increased greatly.
Not only did the sword technique's grade increase to superior-grade Heaven-stage, but Long Xiaoyu had also cultivated it to the phenomenal success stage and comprehended the Heavenly Dragon Sword Intent.
She took a step forward and thrust her sword forward. A dragon's roar sounded in everyone's ears.
The student from dormitory two, who was standing opposite Long Xiaoyu, only felt a golden dragon whistling over. In that instant, his mind was taken away, and his breathing seemed to have stopped.
He only had time to raise the sword in his hand before he was sent flying by the dragon-shaped sword qi.
"Hiss!"
Countless people gasped. They couldn't even withstand a single move.
The second to win was Luo Qing.
Luo Qing's move was the first move of the Heaven Seeking Nine Blades, Laughing and Asking the Heavens if they could lower their heads!
Heaven and Earth would kneel when the saber was out!
Luo Qing had only cultivated the Heaven Seeking Nine Blades to the Lesser Mastery stage, but he was already very familiar with this move.
The student from dormitory one tried his best to resist, but he only felt an earth-shattering force sweeping over. He couldn't resist at all.
Boom!
With a loud bang, he was sent flying.
He was also defeated in one move.
The third to win was Feifei Yu. Her victory was even more speechless. When she used her sword, the sky was filled with dazzling starlight.
After the starlight dissipated, her opponent had already become bald.
His hair had been shaved off by her sword.
The onlookers thought, "This is too exaggerated. I didn't even have time to react, and he was shaved bald. If he wanted to kill someone, wouldn't he be sliced into pieces?"
If Long Xiaoyu and Luo Qing's attacks were domineering, then Feifei Yu's attacks were the pinnacle of skills and were even more difficult to block.
One could at least block Long Xiaoyu's and Luo Qing's attacks, but not Feifei Yu's were completely different.
Among the five students, she was the most hardworking. Other than Long Xiaoyu, she was the second to cultivate the sword technique to the Greater Mastery stage and comprehend sword intent.
Long Xiaoyu had cultivated the Heavenly Dragon Sword Technique for many years. Now, it was just an improvement, so she broke through in one go. On the other hand, she relied completely on hard work.
If you don't have the talent, you can make up for it with hard work!
Next was Zhou Xiaojie and Shi Xiaofeng. Zhou Xiaojie used three moves to win, relying on a Heaven-tier sword technique to crush an Earth-tier sword technique.
Shi Xiaofeng, on the other hand, relied on his movement technique and an instant surprise attack. Before his opponent could react, he successfully hit his target.
It was a five-on-five battle.
In less than 10 seconds, all of them had won.
That was it?
There were many onlookers, but many people had yet to react.
"Isn't this a little too exaggerated? No matter what, they are still seniors. They failed just like that. Could it be an act?"
"It's not an act. The combat skills that Teacher Ou's students learned are too outstanding. They all seem to be Heaven-tier combat skills."
"Oh my god, even students in the middle three rings might not have Heaven-tier combat skills, let alone students in the outer three rings!"
"This is too exaggerated. Those who were challenged are destined to become background characters!"
…
After a long while, the onlookers started to discuss.
