I possess boundless talent; even geniuses are no match for me.

......

boom!

The moment the countdown reached zero, Xu Changkong, who was already fully prepared, suddenly unleashed his powerful qi and blood.

A scorching heat spread across the arena, and even the air seemed to thicken at that moment.

With the power of his qi and blood, Xu Changkong's figure transformed into a blurry black shadow, rushing towards Chen Yu opposite him as if flying at low altitude.

"Very good, Xu Changkong didn't underestimate Chen Yu just because he's a freshman!"

"And they must have done their homework, knowing Chen Yu's uncanny endurance, so they went all out from the start!"

Mo Jiyang stood by the arena and nodded in satisfaction.

Before this, he was genuinely worried that Xu Changkong might accidentally backfire because of Chen Yu's new identity.

The result is not.

Xu Changkong is very cautious; it's practically impossible for him to lose.

However, just as Mo Jiyang was thinking this, another burst of blood energy suddenly erupted on the arena.

This energy and blood is in no way inferior to Xu Changkong's!

And the source was none other than Chen Yu!

"Qi and blood? Isn't he at the peak of Body Tempering?!" Mo Jiyang's smile suddenly froze.

"It's not the Blood Exchange Realm; Chen Yu's realm is still the Body Tempering Realm."

"That is... breaking through the limits and undergoing a first transformation!"

Mo Jiyang felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his heart.

He never expected that Chen Yu would actually break through to the first level of the Limit Break, no wonder he was confident in challenging Xu Changkong, who was at the first level of Blood Exchange!

boom!

The two streams of energy collided violently, and Xu Changkong's face showed a look of astonishment.

Chen Yu has actually broken through the limit and reached the first level!

This was far beyond his expectations, and his previous plans instantly fell into chaos.

However, having already made his move, no matter how wrong he felt, he could only grit his teeth and continue charging forward!

Wow!

The blade in Xu Changkong's hand flashed down like mercury.

Even a peak Body Tempering expert would inevitably die with resentment from this strike, which is enhanced by the power of blood and qi.

However, Chen Yu's gaze remained calm and undisturbed.

"They haven't even mastered the martial arts of Qi and Blood cultivation? This is what the top 200 are like?"

"Too weak!"

Yes, Xu Changkong, as a martial artist at the first level of Blood Exchange, still uses basic martial arts.

It wasn't even perfect.

"call--!"

With one step, Chen Yu's figure dissipated like smoke.

"Hmm, where is he?" Xu Changkong's hand holding the knife suddenly paused.

He knew perfectly well that Chen Yu was right in front of him, but his senses were in complete disarray, and he couldn't pinpoint Chen Yu's exact location at all.

It was as if Chen Yu had suddenly turned into a wisp of mist, his true form hidden within the mist, making it impossible for him to discern Chen Yu's exact location at that moment.

Below the arena, Mo Jiyang's pupils suddenly contracted:

"Perfect Body Technique!"

Compared to breaking through the limit and turning the stage, Chen Yu's perfect movement technique at this moment was obviously more astonishing to him.

Following the Thunder Blade, this is the second perfected martial art that Chen Yu has displayed!

"With such terrifying martial arts talent, comprehending the martial arts will is merely a natural progression!"

"Even Fang Xiong back then didn't have such formidable martial arts talent, did he?"

Mo Jiyang was filled with amazement.

Even Fang Xiong, who was once known as a once-in-hundred-years talent from the Crimson Star, was only at the perfection of one sword technique.

At that moment, Xu Changkong hesitated for only a second before decisively swinging his sword.

"Let's take a gamble!"

If you don't gamble, you lose; if you gamble, you might win Chen Yu's position, so he might not necessarily lose!

Swish!

The blade flashed down, but landed in empty space.

"It's over."

Xu Changkong sighed inwardly.

The next second, a sharp chill appeared on his neck.

The blade was pressed against the skin of his neck; with the slightest movement, it could easily decapitate him.

"I have lost." Xu Changkong dropped the sword in his hand, accepting his defeat wholeheartedly.

Chen Yu didn't rely on any strange endurance to wear him down; instead, he crushed him with sheer, head-on combat power.

What else could he say?

They gave it to them!

"You flatter me." Chen Yu stopped his Blood Chant, his face showing neither excitement nor agitation.

It's normal to win.

It would be strange if they lost.

He turned to look at Mo Jiyang outside the arena and chuckled softly, "Teacher Mo, how do you feel about my offer now?"

Mo Jiyang remained silent for a long time.

He finally understood why Chen Yu dared to say that Fan Wuyou and Ao Zangfeng were unimportant—because they truly were unimportant.

Breaking through the limits of one transformation, mastering a perfect sword technique, and mastering a perfect movement technique—is this what a genius is like today?

Even if Fan Wuyou from the capital and Ao Zangfeng from Shangjiang joined forces, they probably wouldn't be a match for Chen Yu alone.

"Chen Yu, let's discuss the price again." Mo Jiyang's coldness faded, and he forced a smile.

"Of course, I already said that you have to haggle in business!" Chen Yu's smile became much more natural.

His initial offer was deliberately inflated, just to prepare for a counter-offer.

Moreover, even without compensation, he would still have to participate in the Wuhan University freshman exchange competition, since at least two cyan-quality talents awaited him.

After some discussion, the two finally agreed on a price.

"Five Dragon-Tiger Small Pills and three hundred Qi-Blood Pills," Mo Jiyang counted, then said.

"And I'll help you reforge Blood Chant. That condition remains unchanged; we'll still use Grade A alloy as the main material."

While reforging weapons requires students to spend nearly a thousand credits, the cost to the school itself is only a few hundred credits.

There's no need to waste words with Chen Yu on this.

"Deal!" Chen Yu nodded happily.

This time, he won resources worth nearly three to four thousand credits in the Wuhan University freshman exchange competition, which has far exceeded his expectations.

"These resources are enough to sustain us until we reach the third job advancement after breaking the limit!"

"As expected of a big city, and as expected of three top universities, this is awesome!"

Chen Yu had gained more than all his previous experiences in less than a month at Huaying Martial Arts University; it was incredibly satisfying.

"These are just the top three universities. If we could go to New Moon University, there would be even more rare resources, and we'd have even more ways to acquire them!"

"That's the advantage of having a big platform!"

Chen Yu was filled with excitement, wishing he could jump onto the crescent moon right now.

On the other side, Chu Tian and several members of the Martial Arts Association listened to the conversation between Chen Yu and Mo Jiyang and roughly understood the cause and effect. They were filled with mixed feelings.

"Dragon Tiger Pills... a hundred Qi and Blood Pills... and Grade A alloy, that's thousands of credits! I couldn't earn that much in four years of university!"

"Is this how geniuses are treated?!"

Several people were filled with envy.

While they were still struggling to accumulate credits one by one through the tasks issued by the Martial Arts Tournament, Chen Yu was already discussing the rewards for his services with the gold medal instructors.

He can just open his mouth and talk about resources worth thousands of credits!

They were all martial arts elites in their respective cities, but after entering Huaying Martial Arts University, they realized that there are always people more skilled than them, and that there is always something beyond their reach.

The city's gold is everywhere here.

Suddenly, Mo Jiyang turned sharply to look at the group and warned them sternly, "You are not allowed to talk about what happened today."

"The news that Chen Yu defeated Xu Changkong will only be released after the Wuhan University freshman exchange competition."

"Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Tian and the others nodded repeatedly, indicating that they understood.

"We've got this Wuhan University freshman exchange competition in the bag! We've got it all in the bag!!!"

Mo Jiyang's face remained calm, but his heart was already filled with excitement.

Just thinking about how his "old friend" from the capital city had recently been showing off his breakthrough genius in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little resentful...

I couldn't help but want to see the other person's shocked, confused, and surprised expression.

But the Wuhan University freshman exchange competition is still more than ten days away, so we still need to wait... just wait another ten days or so!

As for Chen Yu's identity as a cyborg?

In martial arts, strength is the only measure of power. Whoever is weak becomes a cyborg, and whoever is strong remains a natural human!
