Permanent Martial Arts Chapter 194 - Nine Sages!

Chapter 194: Nine Sages!

The square of the Polar Academy was huge, enough to accommodate 100,000 people!

However, such a huge square was already filled with people. Some people of status were sitting in premium seats.

The strange thing was that the surroundings of the square were densely filled with screens and projectors, ensuring that everyone in any position could clearly see the scene of the Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion.

Those with very high statuses were naturally some Meta-divine and Divine Realm experts. As for the projections of the Nine Sages, they had yet to appear. The other high-ranking government officials, military executives, and elites from all walks of life all had their own positions.

There was also the press box. Many reporters were busying about. For the sake of this live broadcast for the whole world, they could not let their guard down. They were probably the busiest people in this Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion.

There was another place specially reserved for the students of the Polar Academy. This could be considered a benefit for the students of the Polar Academy. After all, the Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion was held at the Polar Academy. As students of the academy, they could watch it directly.

At this moment, the seats of the Polar Academy students were already filled with people. Qu Chen and her companions had relatively good seats, and this was thanks to Li Hang.

It had to be said that Li Hang was considered an influential figure in the Polar Academy. It was naturally easy for him to get a few good seats.

These Polar Academy students were all very excited. In their eyes, those who could partic.i.p.ate in the martial arts compet.i.tion this time were all geniuses and renowned martial artists.

Even though they were students of the Polar Academy, it was not that easy to break the genetic lock. If they could not break the genetic lock in a few years, they would also be forced to leave the Polar Academy.

Hence, being able to break the genetic lock was enough to make them envious. Moreover, these partic.i.p.ating martial artists might be the cream of the crop among Metamorphic Realm martial artists.

Of course, the most popular ones were still the seniors from the Polar Academy. After all, the Polar Academy could be considered their “home ground”.

“Look, isn’t that Senior Rose? I heard that Senior Rose usually fights with those savage dire beasts at the frontline. I didn’t expect her to come this time.”

“There’s also Senior Xu Chenguang. Tsk tsk, I heard that he once escaped from a demon general. He’s very strong.”

“Heh, no matter how strong he is, how can he be stronger than Senior Li Xiang? Look at the popular vote on the Internet. Senior Li Xiang is one of the top ten popular candidates and has a chance of entering the top ten.”

“That’s right. In the past, our Polar Academy always had an overwhelming advantage in the martial arts compet.i.tions between the three major academies. No matter what, the seniors of our Polar Academy will definitely obtain good results this time.”

“That’s hard to say. I heard that there’s a top genius in the Freelance Cultivators Union…”

The students of the Polar Academy were enthusiastically discussing all kinds of gossip. They were especially interested in the genius martial artists who were partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion.

However, Qu Chen did not partic.i.p.ate. Her gaze seemed to be searching through the partic.i.p.ating crowd, as if she was looking for someone.

Li Hang was silent. He had also investigated “Lin Feng” in the past few days. Although there was only a name, with his ability, he could still find out many things.

Moreover, he now knew that “Lin Feng” was a celebrity. With the crisis in Dragonlith City some time ago, the incident in Stone City, and the launch of the new policy for martial artists, Lin Feng was an influential figure through and through.

Lin Feng’s news was everywhere online.

Initially, Li Hang was not too sure that the recipient of the Hero of Humanity Medal, Lin Feng, was the Lin Feng who had contacted Qu Chen. However, when he found out that Lin Feng was also from Central Sea City and used to be in the same university as Qu Chen, he was basically certain that his “love rival” was Lin Feng, whose news was widespread on the Internet.

Li Hang was originally very confident that he was not inferior to anyone. In fact, he was even more outstanding than his peers. Be it his family background or himself, he was well off.

However, when he investigated Lin Feng, Li Hang felt a little less than confident for the first time.

Lin Feng had broken the genetic lock at the age of 20 and obtained the Hero of Humanity Medal. It had to be known that even the most outstanding person in his heart, his brother Li Xiang, had only obtained the Protector of Humanity Medal.

Perhaps in terms of family background alone, Li Hang might have a slight advantage over Lin Feng. However, for martial artists, it’s their own strength that counted the most. Lin Feng could support a family alone, and Lin Feng himself spoke for his family background!

No matter what, Li Hang could not compare to this.

Li Hang had been a little discouraged in the past, but he thought it through later. So what if Lin Feng broke the genetic lock? He would be able to break the genetic lock sooner or later. He was confident of it!

Moreover, he had an incomparably outstanding big brother who had a chance of becoming a Divine Realm martial artist! When the time came, with his big brother taking care of him, he also had a chance of becoming a Divine Realm martial artist. Qu Chen would not suffer or lose out if she followed him.

Lin Feng was only slightly ahead of him.

Moreover, Lin Feng had only broken the genetic lock for a few months. How strong could he possibly be? Yet he had actually partic.i.p.ated in the Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion. When the time came, Lin Feng’s crushing defeat in front of Qu Chen might be Li Hang’s chance.

“Why isn’t he here?”

Qu Chen frowned. She did not see Lin Feng, mainly because there were just too many people. She wanted to call Lin Feng again, but after some thought, she felt that she should not disturb Lin Feng.

After all, this was the eve of the compet.i.tion. She did not want to affect Lin Feng.

Qu Chen did not know that Li Hang’s heart ached when he saw her worried expression. However, he was also slightly jealous, because Qu Chen was not worried about him, but someone else.

“They’re here, they’re here. The projections of the Nine Sages have appeared!”

The already noisy atmosphere in the square became even more lively all of a sudden.

The Sages, the strongest martial artists in human society, finally cast their projections.

Even though they were just projections, they still excited countless people.

These were Sages. Their deeds were already familiar to everyone. They had even become legends!

At this moment, be it martial artists, government officials, military generals, famous scholars, entrepreneurs, and so on, everyone stood up and bowed to the Nine Sages!

Lin Feng also stared intently at the projections of the Nine Sages. Among the Nine Sages, he had only met the Invincible Fist Sage. He had never met the other eight Sages, but this did not stop him from knowing the ident.i.ties of the other eight Sages.

After all, the Nine Sages had already become legends in human society. Their appearances and deeds had long spread, and almost everyone was familiar with them.

Invincible Fist Sage of the Myriad Academy!

Sage Bingyu of the Polar Academy!

Sage Ca.s.s of the Holy Capital Academy!

Sage Kang, renowned as The Pioneer, from the government faction!

Sage Claus from the government faction!

Sage Zhou Tianqi from the military faction!

Sage Palman from the military faction!

Sage Batai from the consortium faction!

Sage Yuanyi from the Freelance Cultivators Union!

The Nine Sages of humanity, invincible experts who had undergone four life transitions, all projected their images!

The Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion entered its climax at this moment. Even if the Nine Sages did nothing and just gathered the nine projections, they would be improving the “standard” of the Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion by countless times.

Only at this moment could Global Martial Arts Compet.i.tion truly be considered the focus of the world!
