High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 119 Consider it a favor I, Sun He, owe you!
A year ago, he was just a rookie king who had mastered the art of killing.

A year later, he had already reached the pinnacle of being a Level 3 martial artist, a dream for all senior high school students, and possessed two killing techniques that allowed him to "control" the realm!
This year's "Morning Star" selection is probably a foregone conclusion.

A resolute glint flashed in Sun He's eyes.

He bowed deeply and solemnly to Qin Feng.

"Junior Brother Qin Feng, I, Sun He, have a difficult request to make. I implore you to grant it!"

Upon seeing this, Qin Feng immediately stepped forward and helped him up.

"Senior Sun He, what are you doing? Just say what you want to say."

He was puzzled and completely failed to understand Sun He's intentions.

Sun He straightened up, his face showing a mixture of bitterness and earnestness.

"I hope... that you can take the initiative and challenge Feng Ruyun to a duel."

"Feng Ruyun?"

Qin Feng was even more puzzled, "Why?"

He couldn't understand why Sun He would make such a strange request.

Sun He sighed and began to explain.

“Feng Ruyun, he is my best brother. Back in the senior competition, I was seriously injured by someone's dirty trick and almost died on the stage. He risked everything to stand up for me in the next match and beat that student from Jinlong Martial Arts High School to death, avenging me.”

A hint of gratitude appeared in his eyes.

"He's a good person in every way, except he's too proud. His goal has always been to be named the 'Rising Star General' this year, and he's been preparing for that for three whole years."

"but……"

Sun He's tone became extremely heavy, "I know that because of your appearance, he has no chance this year. If he continues to compete, he will only become your stepping stone, and there will be no result."

"This is not just a matter of losing honor. More importantly, the deadline for special recruitment applications from the Empire's top Starry Sky Martial Arts Universities is only three days away! If he participates in the school-level league, the application deadline will be long over by the time the league ends."

"But if he were to give up the competition now and apply for graduation, with his strength as a level three martial artist and his dual perfect killing techniques, he would be fully qualified to compete for a special admission spot!"

"I don't want him to waste a whole year of his precious time because of a Qiming General title that he's destined to never obtain! For us martial artists, a year is enough to change too many things!"

“I tried to persuade him, but he wouldn’t listen.”

Sun He's face was full of helplessness. "He thought I was looking down on him and speaking up for you. So... I had no choice but to beg you to play the bad guy."

"Only you, by personally taking action and making him clearly see the insurmountable chasm between you in front of everyone, can you slap his proud head in the face!"

"This... I, Sun He, owe you a favor!"

After hearing these words, Qin Feng fell silent.

Looking into Sun He's sincere and earnest eyes, he felt a greater respect for this magnanimous and loyal senior.

Qin Feng thought for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Okay, I promise you."

He agreed, for three reasons.

First, Sun He's character makes him worthy of my help.

Secondly, he did want to fight Feng Ruyun again.

It was to test his improved skills over the past year, especially considering his crushing defeat to Feng Ruyun in eight seconds last year.

"Thank you!"

Sun He was overjoyed to see that he agreed and bowed deeply to him again.

……

Qin Feng didn't say anything more. He opened his terminal, found Feng Ruyun's avatar in the private network list, and sent a challenge.

[Challenge Request: Qin Feng requests a private duel with his senior.]

Meanwhile, Feng Ruyun, who was sweating profusely in the senior high school's dedicated gravity chamber, received this message.

He was taken aback at first, then burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Feng Ruyun's laughter was full of contempt and a hint of annoyance at being provoked.

He immediately recalled Sun He's "absurd" advice from before.

Then I thought of the posts on the campus forum these past few days, praising Qin Feng to the skies as if the "Morning Star" was already his for the taking.

"Great...that's really great."

A cold glint flashed in Feng Ruyun's eyes. "Does everyone think I, Feng Ruyun, am a pushover?"

He felt unhappy, and a thought suddenly arose in his mind.

He wanted to win, and he wanted to win spectacularly! He wanted to use a crushing victory to show Sun He, and everyone else, how ridiculous their judgment was!
He immediately found two other equally famous names in his friends list.

[Feng Ruyun to Li Daoyi: Daoyi, are you free? In one hour. Last year's Rookie of the Year, that arrogant fool, challenged me to a match.]

[Feng Ruyun to Zhao Wuji: Wuji, come to my room.]

After doing all this, he directly posted a public message on Qiming No.1 High School's public channel.

[Feng Ruyun: In one hour, I will be accepting a challenge from Qin Feng, a junior high school student, in private battle room 334455. Everyone is welcome to come and watch.]

This message was like a nuclear bomb that had been detonated.

The entire Qiming No.1 High School's campus forum exploded instantly!
The turmoil that had just subsided three days ago has once again swept across the entire campus in an even more intense and violent manner!
[Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Is this for real?! Senior Feng Ruyun is going to have a public showdown with Senior Qin Feng?!]

[A battle of the century! This is practically a preview of this year's "Rising Stars" finals!]

[What is Senior Feng trying to do? Is he going to publicly execute someone? That's too cruel!]

[It was definitely Qin Feng who initiated the challenge! He wanted to prove himself beforehand! He's got guts!]

Countless students, whether they were eating, resting, or practicing, immediately dropped everything the moment they saw the message and rushed into the announced spectator room!

A freshman in high school wants to witness firsthand the strength of an unfamiliar upperclassman.

A senior high school student wanted to see how much that former nightmare had grown up.

The top high school seniors wanted to use this battle to gauge the gap between themselves and the most elite fighters.

Even many of the school's instructors, including Gu Yue and Wu Shangfeng, were drawn to this sudden and highly anticipated showdown and turned to watch the battle.

In an instant, a storm was brewing.

Throughout Qiming No. 1 High School, everyone's attention was focused on that small, soon-to-be-opened battle room.

A highly anticipated battle is about to begin!
Qiming No.1 High School, private network, battle room 334455.

When Qin Feng and Feng Ruyun appeared simultaneously on the arena, which was designed in the style of an ancient Roman Colosseum and was filled with an aura of iron and glory, the number of spectators in the room had soared to an unprecedented and terrifying number—47,000 people!

Almost all the Qiming No. 1 High School students online at this moment, no matter where they are or what they are doing, are focusing their attention on this highly anticipated showdown.

The chat section in the spectator channel, which was originally meant for chatting, was now completely flooded with endless, waterfall-like text. The speed at which the information was refreshed was so fast that it was impossible to see with the naked eye.

The entire channel was clearly divided into several distinct "public opinion fields".

Discussion forum for first-year high school students.

This place is filled with curiosity, awe, and a touch of bewilderment.

"It's here! It's finally starting! This is the first time I've ever seen Senior Feng Ruyun make a move!"

"Senior Feng Ruyun is recognized as one of the strongest at Qiming No. 1 High School! I heard his vitality index has already exceeded 30.0, making him a true level three martial artist! He's too strong!"

"Is that guy opposite him... the legendary senior Qin Feng? He doesn't seem like anything special?"

"Don't talk nonsense, upstairs! I heard from the seniors that this Qin Feng was the freshman champion of the previous year, and he's a super freak! His experience when he entered the university is like a legendary novel!"

"Really? Between him and senior Feng Ruyun, who is more skilled?"

"Is there even a question? It's definitely Senior Feng Ruyun! He's the face of the senior class! Senior Qin Feng may be legendary, but he's only been cultivating for less than two years. How could he possibly compare to Senior Feng?"

"That's right! I bet Senior Feng will win! We'll finish this in three minutes!"

For these freshmen who have been enrolled for less than four months, the name "Feng Ruyun" represents the very top of the campus pyramid that they can look up to.

"Qin Feng," on the other hand, is more like a distant "god" who lives in legends and among the older generation, having disappeared for a year.

They are more willing to believe in the real, tangible strongmen they have seen with their own eyes.

Compared to the fearless ignorance of freshmen, the second-year high school students are much more complex.

Their emotions were anticipation, tension, excitement, and above all, a deep awe for the "nightmare" that had haunted them for a whole year.

"He's here! He's really back! That man is truly challenging the pinnacle of senior year!"

"My legs are still trembling a bit. A year ago, I personally witnessed him teach Tie Lin a lesson with a single blow in the cafeteria, making him completely convinced! I'll never forget that scene!"

"It's not just Tie Lin. Every single one of us in our class has been amazed by him. I remember I scored 120 in actual combat, while he scored 500."

"There's also a rumor that he got 500 points because the maximum score was only 500 points."

"How much has he improved this year? Can he really beat senior Feng Ruyun?"

"I don't know...it's hard to say...If it were someone else, I would definitely say it's impossible. But he's Qin Feng...this man is specifically designed to shatter common sense and the impossible!"

"That's right! I will always believe in Qin Shen! He will definitely create a miracle! I bet on him to win!"

"Damn! Is the guy upstairs that stubborn? That's Feng Ruyun on the other side! A master of dual perfect killing techniques! Although I also hope that Senior Qin Feng can win, reason tells me that it's too difficult. I bet... Senior Qin Feng can last more than five minutes!"

They are the witnesses to Qin Feng's rise, and also the generation most severely affected by his "gap-up".

They understood Qin Feng's "unreasonableness" better than anyone else, and therefore, they were more eager than anyone else for this seemingly impossible challenge to have a revolutionary outcome.
