The Immortal God of War

Chapter 30 Top 8 Competition

This kid Liu Chi has a characteristic. He doesn't just study magic or read books related to magic. Instead, as long as it is a book, no matter what it is, he will read it and he will remember it after reading it.

So unlike usual when I just understood it, this time I really started to learn other things in Liu Chi’s memory.

After a brief search, I decided on the direction of study - medicine. The image of Lilith getting sick lingered in my mind. If Liu Chi hadn't taken emergency measures, Lilith might have died long ago.

However, I just wanted to recall the prescription I had just read, but found that my mind was blank. I had to close the book awkwardly. It seems that without super memory, I am not suitable for the path of medicine. The magic knowledge alone may have overloaded my CPU and prevented me from studying medicine in depth.

After comforting myself, I still focused on the fight. Then I thought, if I can’t protect myself, how can I save others?

As the clock kept ticking, I went out at 48, 72, 96, and 120. Finally, I confirmed with Liu Chi that the current flow rate of time in the spiritual sea is ten times that of the outside world. In other words, ten days pass in the spiritual sea while only one day passes in the outside world.

According to Liu Chi's explanation, this time difference can also be reversed, ten days in the outside world and one day in the spiritual sea.

After getting dressed, Liu Chi went to the competition held by the Imperial Academy wearing his own samurai uniform.

Following the transmission of magic, seven contestants lined up on the stage. As to why there were only seven people in the top eight, I had no idea, but I had an idea.

Liu Chi's sight was very scattered, I didn't know what he was thinking at this moment, but I could see the audience in the stands through his sight. The stands were not full, on the contrary, due to the crowds, there were only a few people watching the excitement in some places. Judging from the "school uniforms" that symbolized strength, the people present were generally low-level students, and there were only a few people with high strength.

Soon, the warrior competition initiated by the East Campus of the Imperial Academy officially began. Due to the order of the draw, Liu Chi had to wait until the last group in this eight-to-four match.

The first group started fighting quickly, with two men facing each other. From the referee's seat, judging from their clothing, each campus sent a swordsman teacher and a swordsman-level student.

Liu Chi's attention was divided between the two people on the ring. Could it be that they could learn a trick from each other at this moment?

After the two young men on the field completed a simple etiquette, they began to fight. I don't know if it was because of the rules of the game, but the fight between the two was decided in just a few moves and more than ten seconds. One of the young men held his wooden sword high, walked off the stage with his head held high, while the other young man scratched his head, looked at the referee's seat in confusion, and then walked off the stage.

"If it was a real combat duel, he would have been dead!" Liu Chi's laughter made me shudder. No matter what time it was, Liu Chi seemed to be particularly keen on watching others duel. What if he was a combat fanatic, then I would be doomed.

Soon, the second group of contestants walked onto the stage. The male student who called himself Chen Yi smiled in the direction of Liu Chi, then looked back at his opponent.

On the ring, after a simple etiquette, Chen Yi took the lead in launching his attack. This duel was not like the previous one, as the two fought evenly. From a glance, it seemed that only Chen Yi was constantly attacking, while his opponent seemed to be on the defense all the time.

The moves of both players were simple, open and close, without any fancy moves. Each round lasted two minutes before stopping. Several people at the referee's seat began to talk, apparently while judging the points. Everyone picked up a pen and wrote something. The whole process lasted about five minutes.

Soon in the second half, the young man facing Chen Yi changed his style and took the initiative to launch his own attack. For some unknown reason, after just a few moves, he changed from active offense to passive defense.

"I can see that his martial arts skills are limited. He can't change his moves at all and can only passively take the beating." I said.

"Almost." Liu Chi replied calmly.

Seeing that Liu Chi's eyes were fixed on the two of them, I understood that he probably wanted them to fight for a while longer.

Soon after the discussion at the referee's table, Chen Yi won.

There were still two girls left in the contestant seats, but as the two stood up and went on stage, Liu Chi sighed softly.

This? Could it be that they will advance directly to the semifinals after getting a bye? I can't believe it. If they get a bye this time, I'm sure it's the East Campus that's behind the scenes, starting from the previous draw.

I just finished watching a wonderful match. This women's competition seemed a bit boring because the top eight were decided by draw, so the strength gap between the players was too big. I have heard many people say that Chen Yi is probably the champion.

The two female students also played two full rounds, and the third group of matches that lasted nearly twenty minutes also ended.

Following the magic transmission, Liu Chi also walked onto the stage, but his opponent did not show up for a long time. According to the rules of the competition, if a player does not show up within an hourglass time, it will be deemed as a forfeit, and the opponent will win directly.

When Liu Chi saw an hourglass placed on the referee's bench, he simply collapsed on the ring. This scene also attracted laughter from many people present.

When he came back yesterday, Qing Yan told him that she had something to do today and couldn't come. Liu Chi looked around the audience and then looked at the palm of his hand. He seemed to be thinking about something.

"Here I come, here I come." Following the sound, a petite girl quickly ran to the referee's seat, said a few simple words, and then ran towards the ring.

Liu Chi stood up, and the two of them sat down for a simple ceremony, holding the hilts of their swords with both hands.

Liu Chi said to the girl, "Yang Xi, right?"

I have gradually learned to accept this situation. I didn't expect that Liu Chi remembered the name of his opponent just by taking a look at the draw result.

"What's wrong?" Perhaps because she heard Liu Chi calling her, the girl did not attack directly with her sword. Instead, she responded to Liu Chi.

"Take a break first. You look very tired, and I don't want to take advantage of you."

Perhaps because of what Liu Chi said, Yang Xi suddenly laughed out loud: "What an interesting person, but don't underestimate me, I'm not weak."

"Not weak? This competition is for the weak." Liu Chi sat down again.

The smile on Yang Xi's face suddenly stopped, as if he understood something, and then he sat down like Liu Chi, "Then I'll listen to you."

Liu Chi looked at Yang Xi, and our eyes met. I saw fatigue and sadness in the girl's eyes, as well as a maturity that did not belong to her age.

After a while, the referee didn't know what happened, but a man walked to the ring and said to the two men, "You can start the competition."

"Can you let this player rest for five more minutes? I just don't want to win unfairly."

The man returned to the referee's seat and after talking with several others, he agreed to Liu Chi's request.
