Chapter 1115: Chapter 686: Limit Breaking Palace, Dominating the Arena, Never-Fading Martial Arts Will!
Scorpion Fist, primarily focuses on poison techniques.
If she can’t break through the defense, all her skills are useless.
What’s the point of fighting...
Amidst the booing, the AI continues to select.
"[Canglang Water Lord · Jiang Yao]."
The ancient dressed woman quickly switched the player’s status card from red to green.
"Passed."
"[Jiazi Demon Refiner · Wang Shu]."
"Green light!"
"[Undying Martial Soul · Cheng Tianfang]."
"Eliminated!"
"..."
On the commentary stage, host Dong Xin twitched the corner of her mouth near the microphone.
It’s like calling names, whoever is picked goes to the preparation zone.
Not a single person takes the stage...
The venue is momentarily silent, it gets awkwardly quiet, even the number of live viewers begins to drop.
No one takes the stage, and the audience loses interest. Many comment:
"Let’s go, Meng God has solidified his overlord position. Let’s come back when the second round starts."
"I always knew, Meng God has never let us loyal fans down!"
The female fans also got excited:
"A bunch of clowns, what match could Meng Bao’Er lose?"
"Brother Chuan has proven with his actions that the boss is always the boss!"
Someone shouts:
"Those five next to Meng God, dare to get up and fight?"
"Overlord? Forget it, that person is a Martial Arts Grandmaster."
"So what? Meng God taking a break can deal with a grandmaster in one hit!"
The official live stream is completely taken over by Meng Chuan’s new and old fans, the barrage filled with a joyful atmosphere, forming a sharp contrast with the Waterdrop Martial Arts Competition Center, which is like a mourning scene...
Host Dong Xin, with a numb expression, calls the names, while one by one they bow their heads and head to the preparation zone.
In less than two hours.
Currently, the number of participants in the booth has slimmed from nearly a thousand to less than a hundred!
A large number of competitors quietly switched to green lights early on, surrendering the martial arts fortune accumulated in previous matches, sneaking away quietly.
Meng Chuan’s momentum grows increasingly vast...
The towering force rises to the clouds, blocked by the dome, spreading outwards.
To those steadfast in the participants’ seats, it seemed like a mysterious black sky curtain erupted behind Meng Chuan, spilling over the overlord’s high platform like a flood breaking through a dam.
The feeling is truly indescribable.
It makes everyone facing Meng Chuan turn their heads, no longer looking.
Turning back, gasping for air as if struggling to climb onto driftwood, gasping for breath as if drowning...
To avoid awkwardness, host Dong Xin simply ignores the AI’s selection results, letting chosen competitors make their own decisions.
She picks up the microphone, smiling:
"After a few matches, Meng Chuan’s dominance is already apparent, few dare to challenge him."
Commentator Wang Yang sighs:
"Indeed, among the players who just appeared, Lord Yao’s damage level during his moves exceeded 5000 points, and with explosive secret technique support, even reached close to 6000 points, definitely the first tier in the semifinals!
But even so, he still couldn’t withstand Meng Chuan’s few moves, from this we can deduce, Meng Chuan’s actual damage level likely exceeds the grandmaster level, reaching above 7000 to 8000 points!"
The damage level involves core player data, apart from self-discovery through ’outside methods’, it’s not publicly disclosed.
Therefore, Wang Yang can only infer based on player performance.
Hearing this, the audience collectively gasps in surprise.
Comparable to a grandmaster with a master’s body?
Meanwhile, the ’small group’ intending to exhaust Meng Chuan suddenly has mixed feelings.
Many stand up again, heading to the preparation zone.
Those remaining in the preparation zone number less than fifty!
Sitting nearby, Li Wenshu looks at those avoiding battle, shaking his head slightly:
"I don’t understand, in this spiritual realm you can’t really die, so why not give it a try?
I want to take this opportunity to remind the competitors, to remind all martial arts families watching the live stream.
Do not mistake practicing diligently and daring to enter the Demon Nest, resisting Celestial Demon temptation as a determination of Martial Arts Willpower.
What is true Martial Arts Willpower?
When you know from the outset that your chances are slim, yet you still proceed, persist, and even regardless, see it through to the end!
Just like how we, Blue Star, face the Celestial Demon’s invasion."
Li Wenshu’s words leave everyone in complete silence.
The bloodstained truth squarely before them, pressure surges like a tide.
Dong Xin and Wang Yang also put down their microphones, quietly awaiting the elder’s wisdom.
Li Wenshu gazes across the lifeless arena and speaks again:
"What martial artists seek is never a guaranteed victory, but seeing how far the road ahead lies even in dire situations.
The Overlord sits here, not to make you despair, but to let you try, to see... just how high the peak is.
He paused for a moment, then raised his tone:
"Those who bow their heads and retreat now, will have no right to even gaze upward in the future, but those who dare to step onto the stage, no matter how ugly the loss...
You seldom win, but occasionally you will."
...
At a remote pole on Blue Star, Sui Chunqiu stood up, nodded slowly, and applauded for Elder Li.
Just like the situation humanity is facing now.
There is an unimaginably vast gap between humans and the Celestial Demon Shanghao, with odds of victory approaching zero.
But so what?
The Celestial Kings and the Great Saints know far more than ordinary people, see further than the usual Martial Arts Family, and are aware of the severe situation Blue Star is facing.
But those who stand above have never spoken of giving up.
Why has the Demon Path, relying on the Cosmos, never grown large, and never had the defection of the Celestial Kings and Great Saints?
Because...
Even as they start from the Fifth Threshold, hearing the Dao, seeking the Dao, and gaining Enlightenment, drawing closer to the path, and even truly Entering the Dao and Breaking Eight.
But a person’s Martial Arts Will ignites the moment they step into the First Threshold!
The Martial Arts Will of true powerhouses never extinguishes with the cultivation of the Dao Principle.
It is never extinguished!
...
On the high platform, Meng Chuan, sitting in the Overlord’s chair, felt deeply touched after hearing Li Wenshu’s words.
The Martial Arts Will...
No one is more resolute than him.
What is Martial Arts Will?
Apart from the extraordinary abilities it brings to the Martial Arts Family, Meng Chuan has his own understanding.
It’s perseverance, and even more so, a love for martial arts.
Twelve years of national righteousness boxing, through rain and frost, only love can withstand all hardships.
It’s not just the attraction of ’One Certification, Eternal Certification’, but also his pure love for martial arts in his heart.
Meng Chuan knew as early as four years old.
With an average root and from an ordinary family, without the ’One Certification, Eternal Certification’, he would have nothing to do with becoming a true Martial Artist in his lifetime, let alone achieving what he has now.
"But the source of all this comes from my love for martial arts!"
Meng Chuan murmured in understanding.
As he thought more deeply, he no longer felt the usual entangled discomfort when pondering the ’True Martial Principle’.
This time, he only felt an incomparable ease of both body and mind.
At this moment, he paid no heed to the frequent prompts on the panel, once again sinking into deep thought...
[Secret Technique]
[True Martial: Level One (58%) → (59%)]
[True Martial: ...]
[True Martial: Level One (99%) → Level Two (1%)]
The epiphany continues...
...
Meng Chuan signaled to Dong Xin that he needed to use the Overlord’s permission to meditate and rest for half an hour.
Host Dong Xin also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally having time to insert an advertisement...
Meanwhile, the few dozen participants remaining in the competitor seats were also repeatedly savoring Li Wenshu’s words, with their fighting spirit gradually rising.
Yes, after all, they won’t die, what are they afraid of?!
They finally understood Lord Yao’s approach, and quietly admired him in their hearts.
Among the nearly thousand participants in the Beijing competition, if we talk about ’courage and perseverance’!
Tiger Form Lord Yao is one of the best!
The crowd awaited Meng Chuan’s ’meditation’, no longer discussing anything, just occasionally glancing at him, becoming more and more fierce!
These people gathered together released an overwhelming aura.
They were all gamblers and the strongest among them, or both.
After eliminating the majority, only those who were willing to make a desperate fight remained.
As they say, there is strength in numbers.
The crowd focused intently on Meng Chuan, and their momentum seemed to faintly oppose his.
What they wanted now was not just to defeat the Overlord for five hundred special battle merits.
But to secure the Overlord position for three thousand points, and the immense, beneficial fortune in martial arts!
There weren’t many who chose the red light ’tentatively’.
At this moment, the odds of defeating Meng Chuan and securing the Overlord position were infinitely high.
Fabulous riches!
The crowd rubbed their hands in anticipation, their fighting spirit surging!
...
Host Dong Xin saw that the time was about right and routinely asked Meng Chuan:
"Overlord Meng Chuan, are you ready?"
"Ready, continue."
