Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Chapter 75 - Inside the Lounge

Chapter 75 Inside the Lounge

As soon as he turned the corner, the calm smile on Chu Nan’s face immediately collapsed.

He took a deep breath and patted his chest, trying to calm his slightly nervous mood.

This was the first time he was facing such a large group of reporters and had to face so many of their questions. It would be strange if he was not nervous!

“Fortunately, I practiced with that kid Dong Fang in advance last night. Otherwise, I’m afraid I would have been embarra.s.sed.”

As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, a communication request came from the personal terminal on his wrist.

After receiving the call, Dong Fang’s chubby round face appeared on the virtual screen.

“Heh, Chu Nan, what did those reporters ask you?” Dong Fang asked with a smile.

“It’s nothing. It’s all the questions you guessed yesterday.”

“Ha, these guys can’t escape my expectations.” Dong Fang looked proud. “Then? How did you answer?”

“I did as I practiced yesterday and did not say anything else,” Chu Nan replied. “Very good.” Dong Fang nodded in satisfaction. “Chu Nan, remember this. Those reporters can’t wait for something to happen to you so that they can make big news. You must think carefully before answering, otherwise, you will be in big trouble.”

“Yes, I understand.” When he recalled the questions of those reporters earlier, he did not think much of it at that time. Now that he thought about it carefully, Chu Nan realized that those reporters were actually secretly harboring ill intentions and every question was luring him into danger. If he continued to answer their questions, Chu Nan would unknowingly offend countless people.

Fortunately, although Dong Fang was the same age as Chu Nan, he was extremely familiar with this aspect. Last night, he specially a.n.a.lyzed the situation that he might encounter today with Chu Nan and practiced his answers. This was the reason why Chu Nan did not reveal any flaws.

After chatting with Dong Fang for a while, Chu Nan hung up and walked to the compet.i.tion lounge. The group below the age of 20 was separated from the adult group for the compet.i.tion. The compet.i.tion lounge was also separated. As soon as Chu Nan walked in, he felt gazes sweep over. Most of these gazes were filled with curiosity.

If it was said that Chu Nan was not famous in the past and was unknown among the 32 young martial artists who had entered the finals, after Mu Yutong and Norman specially evaluated him, he instantly became the most popular among the 32 partic.i.p.ating martial artists below the age of 20.

Someone even specially made a special topic for this and gathered the video of Chu Nan’s first nine rounds.

Through the recording of these nine compet.i.tions, everyone discovered that Chu Nan was indeed worthy of the praise of the two Star-Grade Martial Artists.

The degree of tempering of his body was clearly only equivalent to a low-level Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist, but he was able to defeat two Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists in succession in the seventh and ninth rounds of the elimination rounds. The ability he displayed was truly shocking.

Among those curious gazes, there was more pity, sympathy, or even schadenfreude.

It was true that the two Star-Grade Martial Artists praised Chu Nan greatly, but most importantly, they also made a judgment that could be equivalent to a death sentence for him

– it was almost impossible for him to even become a low-level Void Break Martial Artist!

In that case, so what if he was a genius? So what if his performance was outstanding? In the end, he could only become an ordinary Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. He would be mediocre his entire life and become an ordinary person.

Unlike Chu Nan, most of the other 32 young partic.i.p.ating martial artists in the lounge had successfully entered the ranks of the Internal Breath Realm. Even the few who had not become Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists were at least fifth-stage Overlord Body Realm Martial Artists.

All of them had long laid a solid and good foundation. They would not be like Chu Nan, who would encounter an insurmountable obstacle when breaking through the boundary of the Internal Breath realm to the Void Break realm.

In the future, their achievements would definitely surpa.s.s Chu Nan’s! Of course, Chu Nan could clearly sense the various meanings in the surrounding gazes, but his expression did not change at all.

He had already enjoyed such a gaze in the academy for many days.

Ever since the contents of the interview between the two Star-Grade Martial Artists were made public, everyone in the academy would look at Chu Nan the same way. He had long been used to it.

“Heh!”

A burly young martial artist with a very young face walked over and took the initiative to wave at Chu Nan.

“My name is Rodman, and I’m from the Vig Republic.” Chu Nan looked at him in surprise.

“h.e.l.lo, I’m Chu Nan from the Earth Federation.”

Rodman laughed and waved his hand, “Alright, you don’t have to introduce yourself. Who doesn’t know you here now?”

Seeing Rodman’s gaze sweep over, some of the other partic.i.p.ating martial artists in the lounge avoided his gaze, and some simply nodded at him and Chu Nan.

Chu Nan shrugged, “Is it because the two Star-Grade Martial Artists mentioned me? This is not something to be happy about.”

Rodman seriously looked at the expression on Chu Nan’s face. When he saw that he did not seem to be depressed, he nodded in satisfaction. He stretched out his hand and patted Chu Nan’s shoulder before laughing heartily, “Actually, it’s nothing. Even if the two Star-Grade Martial Artists think you can’t do it, you can’t just give up, right? All the best! I believe in you!”

Chu Nan smiled at him and thanked him for his encouragement.

Perhaps it was because of Rodman’s words, the other partic.i.p.ating martial artists in the lounge also surrounded him and greeted Chu Nan.

However, many people still watched from afar and remained indifferent.

After Chu Nan dealt with everything, his gaze landed on a corner of the lounge and met with Maruk’s cold gaze.

Seeing Chu Nan look over, Maruk stood up and took two steps forward before sneering.

“Kid, you’re indeed very surprising to me. You’re actually able to defeat Senior Brother Saha. However, this is because Senior Brother underestimated his opponent, but it doesn’t mean that you’re really that strong. You better start praying from now on that you don’t encounter me in the first round. Otherwise, I’ll definitely let you enjoy a warm reception!”

After saying this last sentence, Maruk stuck out his tongue and licked the corners of his mouth. The smile on his face was very cold. Anyone could tell what he meant.

Chu Nan looked at him and still did not feel angry. He only felt that it was funny.

This guy had been filled with hostility from the first time he saw him. Now, his hostility was even more obvious. It was a mystery how he had been taught.

“In that case, you think you’re stronger than your senior brother, Saha?” Chu Nan asked.

“Of course,” Maruk replied proudly, “I, Maruk, am a famous genius in the Kingdom of Kexley. Although my Senior Brother is not bad, how can he be compared to me?”

Chu Nan laughed. This guy’s arrogance was really hopeless.

“Alright, I hope what you say is true. I also hope that you won’t be eliminated before you encounter me.”

After saying that, Chu Nan went to the side and sat down. He closed his eyes and ignored everything

Maruk’s eyes flashed. He snorted and sat back.

The harmonious atmosphere in the lounge immediately froze. Everyone returned to their seats and silently began to prepare.
