With just a few strokes, Xiao Xue sketched out an extremely tragic scene. The man in the painting seemed to be struggling on his deathbed.
Luo Kai guessed that the man in the painting might be himself. He could not help but ask in shock, "You can predict the future?"
Xiao Xue shook her head and lowered her head to continue painting. This time, the scene changed. A man received a shiny golden medal with a smile on his face. Xiao Xue continued painting. Some of the men were running in the wilderness with many people chasing after them. Some of the men were standing on the deck of an airship and looking down …
After a while, she finished painting several scenes. The main character was a man, Luo Kai himself.
Luo Kai understood what Xiao Xue meant. He said seriously, "You mean there are countless possibilities in the future?
You can only calculate and not predict the future? "
Xiao Xue finally stopped painting and nodded heavily at him.
Most of the scenes were going in a bad direction. Luo Kai was shrouded in dark clouds. He did not believe that anyone could predict the future. It involved the basic laws of time and space. If someone could predict the future, it meant that they could control time and space. Then, they would not be human, but God.
However, everything in the world was traceable, including time and space. In fact, the flow of time was relatively different for everyone. The faster one's thinking speed was, the slower time would flow. On the contrary, the slower one's thinking speed was, the faster time would flow. This was not a personal feeling, but a real existence. In other words, one's thinking and consciousness affected the flow of time in the outside world.
The ability to foresee danger that all living beings possessed was actually a special product that transcended time. It was just that some people's premonitions were particularly strong, while others were relatively weak. Luo Kai belonged to the stronger category, and the delicate little girl in front of him belonged to the stronger category. She could even calculate all kinds of possibilities based on her own premonitions.
Luo Kai couldn't help but feel a little worried. He looked at the rostrum, where some important figures of Seongma Province were sitting, including Duke Iven. In the middle of the rostrum was an old man with white hair and beard. He was the president of Seongma Province Association for Physical Arts, Fang Hong. It was said that he had been a high-level physical warrior for decades. Liu Hou guessed that he was only half a step away from becoming a physical master.
In addition to these two people, there were three other advanced physical warriors. One of them was an elegant old man with a green beard. He was the principal of Golden Orchid Academy, Lu Rui. The other one was a strong man with a long saber on his back. He was the chief instructor of Guanghan Sports School in Hanzhou Prefecture, Xiang Bo. The last one was Liu Hou.
The five of them were all high-level physical warriors who had been famous for a long time. According to the records of the Association for Physical Arts, there were only ten high-level physical warriors in Seongma Province. Today, five of them came at once, which showed the importance of the martial arts competition.
The martial arts competition was not only a grand event for the physical skills world, but also the most important reference for the sports schools in the prefectures. Generally, the ranking was based on the ranking. Over the years, the students from Golden Orchid Academy had always been ranked at the top, but it would also give other schools a chance. One or two spots in the top five would always be given to other schools. However, this year's martial arts competition was different. With the participation of the military's physical skills cultivators, not only did the other schools not have a chance, but even Golden Orchid Academy would find it difficult to enter the top five.
The five high-level physical warriors sat on the rostrum. Other than Duke Yi Wen, who was dozing off with his eyes closed, the others did not look too good. Fang Hong, the president of the Association for Physical Arts, explained to the people around him with a bitter smile, "Everyone, it was not my idea to let the military participate. It was a notice from the Physical Skills Association. They said that the martial arts competition excludes the military system and has the intention of discrimination."
The principal of Golden Orchid Sports School looked elegant and easy-going, but his words were full of hostility. He said coldly, "Hmph, as far as I know, the higher-ups only asked the local associations to consider. They did not mean to give orders."
"Ah, Principal Lu, you really misunderstood me. The University of Beijing is somewhat dissatisfied with the students we sent over over the years. They have the intention to reduce or cancel the quota of exchange students in Seongma Province. If the students trained by the principals were all elites, then I wouldn't have to worry about it."
This time, the others were somewhat speechless. In the past few years, the training of physical warriors had become more and more difficult. It was only because the general environment was in a state of peace. Most of the students in the sports school were born in a pampered environment. Without external pressure, they naturally lost the motivation to improve. Although a comfortable life was good, it was easy for people to lose the spirit of martial arts. This was a dead knot that could not be untied. Even in Higashimogami Province, the advancement rate of physical warriors was getting lower and lower.
After a while, Fang Hong changed the topic and said, "Did everyone hear about the riot in Jinlan City last night?"
The chief instructor of Guanghan Sports School, Xiang Bo, immediately said excitedly, "I heard that a group of foreign physical warriors besieged a young man. In the end, the young man killed four of them. Good guy, our Seongma Province has not had such a powerful person for a long time!"
"I don't know if Principal Liu has heard about it?" Fang Hong suddenly asked Liu Hou.
Liu Hou said expressionlessly, "Of course I have. It seems that there are hidden talents among the people. The Association for Physical Arts must not be arrogant."
"Hehe, as far as I know, this young man is not a commoner Physique Warrior, but a novice Physique Warrior of our Physique Technique Association. A novice Physique Warrior killed a group of middle Physique Warriors without a chance to retaliate. Hehe, if a novice Physique Warrior is so powerful, then us old fellows would be too ashamed to continue living.
Liu Hou did not speak. The commotion last night was so big that it naturally could not have escaped the eyes of those who wanted to see it. Luo Kai's identity would definitely be exposed.
The competition system was very simple. There were five rings in the field. First, the contestants would be randomly matched. As long as they won three matches in a row, they could enter the winner's group and rest. The losers could still challenge other rings until they won three matches in a row and entered the winner's group. Then, the winner's group competition, which was the ranking competition, would be decided by the winning percentage.
The finale was the challenge competition. All the contestants who entered the ranking competition could challenge the contestants who were ranked ahead of them. Once they won, they would occupy the contestant's ranking. In order to prevent consecutive challenges, the challenged contestants could refuse consecutive challenges, but they could not refuse a challenge from someone who was ranked lower than them. In other words, the first place contestant could not refuse a challenge from the second place contestant. In the end, the top five contestants would receive an invitation letter from the University of Beijing.
Lord Ewen stood up, cleared his throat, and began to read a long opening speech until he was a little impatient. He simply stopped and loudly announced the start of the tournament.
Accompanied by the rumbling of the war drums, the contestants began to draw lots. Those who drew the top five tags directly stepped onto the ring and waited to be challenged.
The reason why there were five rings in the field was because there was a tradition in the fighting competition. One contestant would occupy a ring from the beginning to the end and never come down. People like this were very rare. After all, there was a limit to human strength. Even Physique Warriors would find it difficult to withstand consecutive challenges.
Luo Kai drew a tag of 105, indicating that there were more than a hundred contestants ahead of him.
"Luo Kai, what did you draw?" Hao Fei asked eagerly behind him.
“105。”
"Damn, you're so lucky. The further you go, the better. You can see what kind of people are in front of you. I'm so unlucky, I drew a 10!"
Luo Kai smiled and said, "Why don't we swap?"
"Can I?" Hao Fei carefully looked around.
Luo Kai's hearing was extremely sharp. He heard many contestants around him secretly changing their tags. Of course, the later the match, the more advantageous it would be. They could counter the contestants in front of them based on their physical skills. However, this didn't matter to him. He stuffed the tag in his hand to Hao Fei.
"Isn't this a little inappropriate?"
Hao Fei was a little hesitant. He had seen Luo Kai's terrifying ability to knock away bullets with his fists. He guessed that Luo Kai was a secret trump card sent by the school. It was best not to reveal such a trump card too early.
Luo Kai took the number 10 tag from Hao Fei's hand and turned to look at the ring. The southeast ring was the most eye-catching. On the ring was a bald man with a face full of scars. He didn't stand like a normal person. Instead, he was half-crouching on the ground. His muscles were bulging, like a ferocious tiger ready to pounce.
