Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 649 - 649 609 Selection of Martial Artist_1

649: Chapter 609 Selection of Martial Artist_1 649: Chapter 609 Selection of Martial Artist_1 Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang left the Hua Family Manor and walked along the streets toward the main square of Flower City.

The largest square in Flower City was now crowded with people, as the location for the Martial Path selection was right here.

The registration area was packed with a sea of people, with a constant stream of registrants.

Everyone wanted to participate in this Martial Path selection, eager not to miss this precious opportunity.

However, before they could register, they had to pass a basic test of strength.

And that was lifting a stone.

If one could lift a stone half the size of a person with one hand, then they would have the most basic qualification to register.

Yet even so, it still eliminated quite a few people.

Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang started to line up, ready to begin the registration process.

Lu Chuan, meanwhile, waited for them to complete registration from a distance.

As the line moved forward, it finally came to Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang.

“Name?”

“Gu Xiaorou.”

“Strength?”

“Martial King Realm.”

The person at the registration looked up at Gu Xiaorou, his eyes filled with utter distrust.

But naturally, he would not waste time verifying it, as there were too many people lying here.

He continued, “Go to the side and lift the stone with one hand.

If you can do that, consider yourself registered.”

Gu Xiaorou stepped aside, cradled the stone with both hands, and then propped it up with her right hand.

Then, with her whole body powering through, she lifted the stone above her head effortlessly.

Her ease surprised the surrounding crowd.

Such a stunningly beautiful girl possessed considerable strength.

However, in the Kunlun Domain, this was too commonplace.

If a girl could lift something so heavy in the secular world, she would have been an internet sensation long ago.

“Alright, next.”

Then, Gu Xiaosang stepped forward.

The person at the registration looked at Gu Xiaosang, his brow immediately furrowing.

Gu Xiaosang looked adorable with a naive smile on her face, appearing like an innocent little girl.

He immediately grew impatient, clearly another one just here for the excitement.

“Name?”

“Gu Xiaosang.”

“Who is that person to you?”

“My sister.”

“Strength?”

“Martial King Realm.”

He looked up at Gu Xiaosang, asking in disbelief, “You’re also in the Martial King Realm?”

“Is there a problem?” she asked, a bit confused.

“You better not be lying to me.”

“I’m not lying, really Martial King Realm.”

“Forget it, there are plenty of people here lying to puff themselves up, I won’t quibble with you, go take the test.”

Gu Xiaosang, angrily slammed the table, shouting, “What do you mean?

I told you I’m not lying!”

Seeing her lose her temper, the staff member got startled but didn’t know what to say.

At this, the people around quickly tried to persuade her, “Stop being stubborn; if you claim to be in the Martial King Realm now, it will be exposed sooner or later when you go on stage.

Just be honest.”

“That’s right, how rare is the Martial King Realm!

Even martial artists with a bit of talent have to reach around thirty years old before breaking through to the Martial King Realm, how could an ordinary person possibly do that?”

“Just now your sister was in the Martial King Realm; we can choose to believe that.

But you too?

What, does the Gu family mass-produce Martial Kings?”

Gu Xiaosang, pouting with frustration, walked over to the side, lifted the boulder with both hands, and without hesitation, hurled it to the side.

Bang!!!!!

The floor beside them had been smashed into a large pit, startling everyone around with the reverberating noise.

“Now you know what kind of strength I have, don’t you?”

In an instant, everyone around cowered.

And Gu Xiaosang naturally succeeded in signing up as well.

After leaving the registration area, Gu Xiaorou couldn’t help but advise, “Why get angry with them?

Once you’re on stage, they’ll naturally see your strength.”

“I couldn’t care less about getting angry with them!

Once the selection starts, I’m definitely going to aim straight for first place!”

Gu Xiaorou said with a smile, “Don’t forget about me.

It’s not certain who’ll be first between the two of us.”

“I won’t lose to you!”

Gu Xiaosang said confidently.

…

As the registration gradually ended, the dueling arena was completed, and the Martial Artist selection officially began.

The three leading masters walked onto the dueling arena, facing the crowd.

Zhan Tianyu stood at the center position; he was also the first to speak.

“Now, the Martial Artist selection of Dubhe City will officially begin.”

“The top hundred Martial Artists will be chosen to go to Dubhe City for further training.”

“The top ten Martial Artists will join the Zhan Family Martial Arts Hall and become one of our Zhan family’s Martial Artists.”

“The competition is divided into two parts.

First, we’ll take turns fighting to establish the initial rankings.”

“Then, each competitor will take turns fighting with our three apprentices, and we, as judges, will score the matches.

The final ranking will be based on these scores.”

“First up is the random grouping for one-on-one fights, which we have already prepared.”

“There are more than four hundred participants in this Martial Artist selection, split into two hundred pairs for the fights.”

“The first round of fights will quickly sort out the top hundred, and then it’s time to fight against our three apprentices.”

After Zhan Tianyu finished speaking, he looked at the two beside him and introduced, “This is Liang Wanhu, the Family Head of the Liang family from Dubhe City, proficient in boxing techniques.”

“This is Lin Tianhai, the Family Head of the Lin family from Dubhe City, skilled in spear techniques.”

“I am a master from the Zhan family of Dubhe City, with dozens of apprentices under me, all of whom are quite strong.”

“Now, let’s begin the competition.”

…

He then announced the names of the Martial Artists competing in the first round.

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan and the others were just standing in the crowd waiting.

“It’s so nerve-wracking, who knows when it will be our turn.”

Gu Xiaosang said excitedly.

“Don’t be nervous, it’s just two rounds of competition, and they’re quite simple.”

Gu Xiaosang nodded slightly, “Yeah, I’ll be ready, I must take first place!”

Ten people in five groups went up to the stage for their turn in the competition.

It was a mere exchange of blows, not too fierce, but when it came down to victory or defeat, fierce punches would be thrown in desperation.

Soon, the first round was over.

Results were announced on the spot, with winners advancing and losers being directly eliminated.

Many Martial Artists trained all year for this opportunity, and getting eliminated could easily bring them to tears.

The second and third rounds began in succession.

The pace of the competition was fast, and the opportunities were few.

One loss meant immediate dismissal, leaving the prospect of a new chance next year.

Soon, it was Gu Xiaorou’s group’s turn.

When Gu Xiaorou’s name was called, she took a deep breath and walked up to the dueling arena.

Seeing a slender female figure step out, the audience couldn’t help but feel anxious for her.

Her opponent was a stout man weighing over two hundred pounds.

Such a match-up was almost too painful to watch.

Zhan Tianyu, looking up at the stage, did not recognize Gu Xiaorou at first, nor did he know she was Lu Chuan’s fiancée.

Therefore, he did not say much, but simply declared, “Begin the match!”
