I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 133 Destroying the Force Meter

When Xu Lan walked into the sword club in high spirits, she immediately saw two conspicuous bald heads.

Her smile froze on her face, and she walked up to Leon with an annoyed look: "Forget about Ye Qingzhou, he just practiced his skin-tightening technique and his hair is falling out. What happened to you?"

Leon was stunned for a moment, then completely dumbfounded: "No, Master Ye said that this is a hairstyle that only the strong can have."

He almost burst into tears. In order to become stronger, he had even shaved his eyebrows during this haircut, and he didn't know when they would grow back.

Ignoring Leon, who was brooding alone in a corner, Xu Lan quickly gathered everyone together: "In another month, it will be the Phoenix Cup. This is a major provincial competition, and we must achieve excellent results, demonstrate our sportsmanship, and showcase the fine spirit of Linjiang No. 1 High School!"

"China will surely prevail!"

The students below shouted slogans, their emotions running high.

Seeing that the morale of the troops was high, Xu Lan nodded in satisfaction, and then announced another piece of news: "In the next few days, we will go to the Yuelu Mountain Secret Realm of Central South University for a visit and trial training. There will be a guidance battle. Everyone should try to learn as much as possible to prepare for the big battle of the Phoenix Cup."

"Okay, Teacher Xu!"

Everyone was very excited to hear that they could visit the Yuelu Mountain Secret Realm at Central South University.

Central South University is a prestigious university, ranking 26th in the country and first in Hunan Province. It shares a large-scale secret realm with Hunan Normal University and Hunan University.

For young martial artists in Hunan Province, many dream of getting into these three prestigious schools, because once they are in, their future martial arts path will be much easier.

After all, there are very few universities in the country that have their own private sanctuary.

The next morning, the bus stopped outside the gate of No. 1 Middle School.

This time, Xu Lan and Lei Ying still led the team. As for He Shiwei, who deserted during the last Tyrant Serpent attack, he was dismissed from the school, lost his secure job, and left No. 1 Middle School in disappointment.

After getting in the car, Xu Yuebing deliberately sat next to Ye Qingzhou. Seeing him deep in thought with his eyes closed, she couldn't help but ask, "Ye Qingzhou, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about what to do next."

"oh."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuebing stopped disturbing him and quietly sat down next to Ye Qingzhou, resting her chin on her hand and looking at his profile.

Sunlight streamed through the car window, bathing the two in a golden glow. The scene was so beautiful that Xu Lan, who had been secretly watching from the side, secretly took out her phone and snapped a picture of it.

As for Ye Qingzhou, he ignored everything around him and remained focused on deducing the "Fish-Dragon Transformation" technique.

As a peerless divine skill created by Yinglong, "Fish-Dragon Transformation" can be called an encyclopedia of species genes, recording all sorts of strange and wonderful martial arts techniques.

Some martial arts techniques can turn demons into humans.

Some martial arts techniques can turn a person into a demon.

Some martial arts techniques, when practiced to the point of being neither human nor demon, are half-human and half-demon, demonstrating extremely strong environmental adaptability and infinite possibilities for the evolution of life.

This is hardly a cultivation technique; Ye Qingzhou would believe it if you told him it was a biological gene research report.

However, although there are many types of cultivation methods, there are only a few truly powerful ones.

One of the martial arts techniques, known as the "Five Emperors Dragon Fist," caught Ye Qingzhou's attention.

"The Five Emperors are the masters of the five innate energies. The Dragon Fist represents fortune and authority. In ancient times, the Three Sovereigns ruled the world, and the Five Emperors established order. By cultivating this skill, one can become powerful and unparalleled throughout the land, possessing immense power and establishing the principles and order of heaven and earth."

"The principles of fist fighting are the same as those of swordsmanship. I can completely master the Five Emperors Dragon Sword Technique based on this method. When the five elements converge and the five swords are unleashed simultaneously, how many people in the world can withstand it?"

Ye Qingzhou became more and more excited as he thought about it. Now, by refining Kang Jinlong's remains, he could obtain a massive amount of innate Geng metal and innate Xin metal energy.

Through the "Twenty-Four Divine Preservation Methods" and the Life Network, one can transform primordial energy into innate Jia wood and innate Yi wood energy. Having already obtained two of the five innate energies, one can fully refine the supernatural powers of the Golden Dragon and the Wood Dragon.

Then, Ye Qingzhou began to try to condense the Golden Dragon Qi and the Wood Dragon Qi according to the contents of the "Five Emperors Dragon Fist Chapter".

"Master Ye."

"Shh, don't disturb him."

Xu Yuebing blocked Leon and waved him away, saying, "Ye Qingzhou is practicing his martial arts, so go away."

"!!!"

Leon was utterly shocked: "Holy crap, Master Ye is already this strong, and he still practices diligently every day, even while riding in a car. He's truly a role model for us all."

The others, who were originally playing around, all calmed down upon seeing this and began to work hard like Ye Qingzhou.

In no time, Ye Qingzhou had already begun to condense a golden dragon and a wooden dragon within his body.

The Golden Dragon has Geng metal as its skeleton and Xin metal as its flesh and blood. Ye Qingzhou incorporated his own Ascending Dragon Sword Intent into it, making it lofty, fierce, and awe-inspiring.

As for the wooden dragon, it is made of Jia wood as the bone and Yi wood as the flesh. Combining Ye Qingzhou's understanding in Jilei Mountain, it incorporates the sword intent of the Azure Dragon of the Forest, gathers infinite vitality, and forges this wooden dragon sword.

The golden dragon governs killing, and the wood dragon governs life; they are like a supreme monarch, wielding the power of life and death!

When Ye Qingzhou opened his eyes, the two completely different sword lights of life and death in his pupils intertwined, flowing and reflecting each other, blooming with dazzling brilliance.

When Ye Qingzhou turned his head, his eyes met Xu Yuebing's, and the latter was instantly captivated by Ye Qingzhou's gaze.

What eyes these are!

It depicts a magnificent massacre, yet also harbors the redemption of life; the powerful spiritual impact even left Xu Yuebing feeling somewhat intoxicated.

Why is your face so red? Are you sick?

"No!"

Hearing Ye Qingzhou's question, Xu Yuebing finally came to her senses. The blush on her pretty face made her delicate skin even more alluring.

Two hours later, the bus arrived in Xingcheng.

At this moment, two senior students from the Central South University Martial Arts Club were already waiting outside the gate of Central South University.

"Zeng Jixia, do you think there are any beautiful girls among the martial arts newcomers who came this time?"

"Hehe, there really is."

Zeng Jixia grinned, looking quite smug.

Standing next to him was none other than Yuan Zhiyi, an inner disciple of the Divine Firmament Blade Sect, whose expression was one of great anticipation.

Clearly, having failed to win over his junior, Yuan Zhiyi has now set his sights on the female students who came to Nanjing University for trial training today.

"I've already done my research. Yuan Jingfei from Zhicheng Middle School, and Xu Yuebing and Zhu Jinfeng from Linjiang No.1 Middle School are all rare beauties."

Zeng Jixia pinched his chin, already thinking about how to make a big splash in front of the pretty junior and win her admiration and love.

He even started to worry: "If all three junior girls are interested in me, how should I choose? It's really a dilemma."

Yuan Zhiyi was also feeling a little fluttery with romantic feelings and couldn't wait to see just how beautiful the pretty junior Zeng Jixia had mentioned was.

A short while later, the two buses arrived at the gate of Nanjing University almost simultaneously.

Xu Lan looked out the car window, a surprised expression on her face: "The Zhicheng High School team is here too?"

"Ye Qingzhou!"

As soon as Ye Qingzhou got out of the car, he heard someone calling his name. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw a long-haired girl with a ponytail waving vigorously at him on tiptoe: "Yuan Jingfei?"

"Hehe, long time no see!"

Yuan Jingfei, like a cheerful lark, hopped and skipped over to Ye Qingzhou, then greeted Xu Yuebing, Zhu Jinfeng, and the others: "Are you also here for trials at Nanjing University?"

"Um."

Ye Qingzhou nodded slightly.

"That's great! Maybe we'll be teammates during the Phoenix Cup."

After meeting Ye Qingzhou, Yuan Jingfei's smile never stopped. She even began to look forward to teaming up with Ye Qingzhou after the trial training and representing Linjiang City in the Phoenix Cup.

Because of the complete elimination of Yingjie Middle School's rookie team, Linjiang City now only has Linjiang No.1 Middle School and Zhicheng Middle School as the only prestigious schools capable of representing the city.

Yuan Jingfei is ranked first in Zhicheng High School, and there are also some promising martial arts talents in Zhicheng High School. Therefore, Lu Yifan, Hou Fei, and Yu Shouping from Linjiang No.1 High School will probably all be eliminated.

"I guess so."

Ye Qingzhou didn't care much about this. Anyway, he was invincible, so it didn't matter who his teammates were. He could just push through and finish the job.

At this moment, Zeng Jixia, watching Ye Qingzhou surrounded by beautiful women from afar, smugly said, "Heh, I didn't expect this kid to be so popular with girls? Too bad, what's the use of just being handsome? Women ultimately admire strength. Looks like we'll have to show off our skills later. You agree, Yuan Zhiyi?"

"...No, you go and show off your skills, I'll pass."

The moment Yuan Zhiyi saw Ye Qingzhou, he recognized the face that had given him nightmares all night. Thinking back to his crushing defeat at Jilei Mountain, he still felt a toothache.

Although he wasn't a Saint Seiya, Yuan Zhiyi didn't want to be defeated twice by the same person using the same move.

Upon hearing Yuan Zhiyi's words, Zeng Jixia looked surprised: "Not showing off when you're supposed to is not like you. What, you don't even want three stunningly beautiful female students?"

"No, no, I already have my junior sister in my heart, and I can't accept any other woman."

Yuan Zhiyi waved his hand with an awkward smile.

Just kidding, Zeng Jixia didn't know how powerful Ye Qingzhou was, but he knew it all too well.

How could you possibly get into a conflict with such a formidable person?

Isn't this like the old man of longevity hanging himself, tired of living?

"You really aren't going?"

"No."

"Then I'll go!"

"Okay, go ahead."

Yuan Zhiyi silently wished his good brother well, and even started thinking about where to buy a wreath as a way to commemorate his soon-to-be-deceased friend.

Unaware of this, Zeng Jixia straightened his sleeves, then put on a friendly smile and stepped forward to greet everyone, saying, "Welcome, fellow students, to our Nanjing University. My name is Zeng Jixia, and I am the second-ranked member of the second team of the Nanjing University Martial Arts Club. I will be in charge of receiving you all."

"Hello, Senior Zeng!"

Many of the martial arts upstarts from both schools had their eyes light up.

Nanjing University's martial arts club is ranked first in Hunan Province, and even nationwide, it ranks among the top 30. Its strength should not be underestimated.

Zeng Jixia's ability to become the second-place finisher in the second team is something to be admired.

Zeng Jixia himself seemed to enjoy being admired, but unfortunately, he secretly observed that the three prettiest junior girls, Xu Yuebing, Zhu Jinfeng, and Yuan Jingfei, all had their eyes focused on Ye Qingzhou.

"Hmph, just wait until you see what true power is."

Ye Qingzhou sensed Zeng Jixia's fighting spirit, which was somewhat inexplicable. He then looked at Yuan Zhiyi, who was standing behind Zeng Jixia and trying his best to hide himself.

"Senior Yuan?"

"Hello there."

Yuan Zhiyi revealed a smile that looked more like a grimace.

Zeng Jixia asked, puzzled, "You two...know each other?"

Fearing that Ye Qingzhou would reveal what happened back then, Yuan Zhiyi quickly replied, "We met once at Jilei Mountain."

"Yes."

Ye Qingzhou nodded without saying anything more, and Yuan Zhiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Losing a martial arts contest is not a big deal, as long as others don't know, it's not shameful!

Zeng Jixia misunderstood the relationship between the two and moved closer to Yuan Zhiyi, teasing him with a smile, "So you're an acquaintance, I can't bring myself to do it. Don't worry, I'll be gentle later."

Yuan Zhiyi looked at Zeng Jixia with a complicated expression. Out of consideration for their friendship as classmates, he reminded him, "I advise you to go all out, otherwise you'd better pray for good luck."

"???"

Zeng Jixia was completely bewildered: "You have a grudge against him?"

Yuan Zhiyi shook his head without offering any further explanation.

After all, I can't be the only one to suffer this loss. Since we're brothers, we should share the burden together.

Afterwards, Zeng Jixia first took everyone to visit the martial arts training venue at Nanjing University. The training equipment there was very professional and much better than that at Linjiang No.1 Middle School.

Zeng Jixia enthusiastically introduced, "Please take a look, everyone. This is the latest model of force measuring instrument from our Dongji Kingdom Tiangong Group. It can measure an impact force of up to ten tons. If you are interested, you can test your own strength level."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and stood in front of the dynamometer, deliberately showing off his muscular arms: "Let me give you a demonstration first."

First, Zeng Jixia stepped to a standing position, then quickly mobilized the martial arts energy within his body and threw a punch.

Fire, a mid-level martial skill, is astonishing!

The fiery energy coiled around his arm, finally bursting out between his fingers. This mid-level martial skill at the Great Perfection stage created a near-perfect punch.

The earth-shattering blow quickly produced a reading of 3.92 tons on the force gauge.

"Senior Zeng is amazing!"

"The machine even moved a little just now, that's amazing!"

Many of the people accompanying the tour exclaimed in surprise.

Two hundred years ago, the Western Kingdom's boxing champion, even with all his might, could only deliver an impact force of 800 pounds with a single punch.

Nowadays, martial arts are flourishing. At the Central South University in Dongji Kingdom, a young martial artist who has just passed the professional-level assessment can easily generate an impact force of 3.92 tons.

This shows that times have truly changed.

"Sigh, I didn't perform well this time, I couldn't even get a 4-ton result."

Enjoying the admiring gazes of his fellow students, Zeng Jixia began his Versailles-like pronouncements, then deliberately looked at Ye Qingzhou: "Hey, classmate, why don't you give it a try?"

Ye Qingzhou blinked: "Me?"

"certainly."

"That's not a good idea."

"Why not give it a try? There's no harm in it."

"But I'm afraid I'll break the machine and you'll ask me for compensation."

"Haha, you're really joking, classmate. This force gauge won't break even if it gets hit by a dump truck."

Unable to refuse such hospitality, and also genuinely interested in the force measuring instrument, Ye Qingzhou stepped forward and earnestly asked, "Is the maximum capacity of this machine ten tons?"

"Yes."

Zeng Jixia smiled, but in her heart she was thinking, "You'll see the difference between us soon enough."

Ye Qingzhou casually threw a punch, which made the surface of the machine covered with sharp gold ring out with a loud clang.

9.99 tons!

Zeng Jixia, who was standing to the side, almost popped her eyes out. What the hell was this data?

The machine was just delivered last month, and it's already malfunctioning?

As for Ye Qingzhou, he was very satisfied with his control over his strength. If the data hadn't been omitted, the force of his punch would have been 9.99999999 tons.

Of course, the quality of Tiangong Group's products is indeed excellent. They say they can measure up to ten tons, and they really can withstand a beating.

"My God, Ye Qingzhou, you punched with the force of 9.99 tons!"

"Is this even a human being?"

A series of exclamations came from behind, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Just as Ye Qingzhou was about to turn and leave, Zeng Jixia called out to him, "Wait a minute, there might be a problem with the equipment. I'll have someone come and take a look. You can test it again later."

"Um?"

Is the equipment malfunctioning?

There's no reason for it.

A moment later, the maintenance technician said there was nothing wrong with the equipment.

Zeng Jixia gritted his teeth and asked Ye Qingzhou to try again. He refused to believe that a high school student could possibly fire 9.99 tons!

Are you the reincarnation of the Dragon King?

"Ye Qingzhou, give it your all this time."

"Go all out? That's not a good idea..."

Ye Qingzhou hesitated. The machine in front of him looked very expensive. What if he broke it and asked him to pay for it?

However, Zeng Jixia was unwilling to give up and insisted that Ye Qingzhou try again, even patting her chest and guaranteeing: "Go ahead and use all your strength, I'll take responsibility if anything happens."

"All right."

Ye Qingzhou became serious this time, and with a thought, the martial arts true energy within his body was immediately activated.

Divine power!

Rising Dragon!

Boom~

The army of fire roars, a rising dragon howls in fury.

Ye Qingzhou threw a punch, and his golden body instantly entered a charging state. His iron bones hummed and vibrated, and the bones and muscles woven from Geng metal and Xin metal instantly burned true energy, bursting out with incredible power.

At that moment, everyone seemed to hear a divine dragon breathing fire, letting out a deafening roar.

Rumble~

This punch possessed immense force, completely exceeding the load-bearing capacity of the force gauge.

So, in front of everyone, the force gauge cracked open, its internal parts emitting electric current and sparks, with wisps of smoke rising, looking completely broken and beyond repair.

Ye Qingzhou then slowly withdrew his strength and looked at Zeng Jixia: "Senior Zeng, you said I didn't need to pay for it."

Zeng Jixia was dumbfounded, her face filled with tears.
