Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

Chapter 162: One Thousandth of a Second (Subscription Request)



'Tianhuan Video Network' host, Xie Qingtong, didn't catch on at first, puzzled about what Shi Yan was talking about. She was so injured she could barely stand, why hadn't she stepped down to heal yet?

A moment later, Xie Qingtong's pupils contracted sharply.

Did Shi Yan just say Lin Rui was very strong, so strong that Zhang Jie couldn't catch his blade? So she wanted to challenge Lin Rui?

She mentioned Lin Rui!

This person, who had just made outrageous claims, turned out to be a 'True God' that Shi Yan took so seriously!

At this moment, her live broadcast room truly boiled over, with countless comments and barrage of texts filling everyone's vision.

——Damn, what did Xiao Yan just say? Did she get that wrong? Is that Lin Rui really that powerful? Really or not?

——Xiao Yan fought so tragically just now, and all she wanted was to challenge that Lin Rui and call out the main player from Mingde University?

——This is getting interesting, there must be a reason! Shi Yan wouldn't say this for no reason.

——To defeat Heishi Zhang Jie in one stroke? He's a widely recognized Quasi-Hall, isn't that impossible? Did you see? Zhang Jie didn't deny it, he kept watching that Lin Rui.

——So when that guy said he could handle Xiao Yan and the core members from Future Science and Technology University, was he telling the truth?

——Why hasn't Xiao Yan gone to heal yet? She's so injured and still wants to challenge, my heart hurts for her!

——That guy must be strong; otherwise, he wouldn't be in the main player position. I didn't expect Mingde University to have such a big Buddha hidden.

Next to her, Fei Yunlai turned his head in an incredibly puzzled manner to look at Lin Rui.

Could this guy really have defeated Heishi Zhang Jie with just one stroke? Really or not?

He then turned his head unbelievingly to look at Yu Feicui.

So Yu Feicui deploying Lin Rui as the main player wasn't to avoid those 'Hall' members but to have Lin Rui firmly anchor the team?

Yu Feicui looked even more bewildered.

Could Lin Rui defeat Zhang Jie with one stroke? Wasn't this a pipe dream?

Fang Ranran had already returned to her seat, equally disbelieving as her eyes widened.

Being straightforward, she directly asked, "Lin Rui, can you really defeat Zhang Jie with one stroke? What exactly happened?"

Lin Rui himself didn't respond; he stood up slightly surprised, gazing at Shi Yan on the stage and met her gaze across the distance.

Next to him, Wang Sen spoke for him, "That was the day before yesterday. Zhang Jie's online name is supposed to be Immovable Ming King. The day before yesterday, when he was on the campus virtual reality combat platform, he was beaten by Brother Rui three times consecutively, each time with just one stroke."

The few surrounding people, upon hearing this, immediately looked solemn, thinking there really was such a matter?

That must be true then, that's why Shi Yan was so concerned about Lin Rui.

Fei Yunlai's face twitched slightly; he still couldn't believe this was true.

So this time the Future Science and Technology University not only failed to shock Lin Rui with a 'Hall' level challenge, but they were actually shocked by Lin Rui?

He thought about his earlier advice to Lin Rui; his usually impenetrable face even flushed slightly.

That was a bit awkward.

At Yu Feicui's intense gaze, Wang Sen said, "Wang Sen, was Lin Rui exceptionally fast at that time? Or was it his strength? Just how fast was it? How powerful?"

"It was very fast!" After saying this, Wang Sen hesitated for a moment, then leaned in and whispered to Yu Feicui, "I did a reading for Brother Rui, a thousandth of a second per stroke!"

He wasn't supposed to reveal Lin Rui's combat data casually, but Yu Feicui was both a coach and a manager.

Yu Feicui looked at Wang Sen as if she wanted to devour him, how could this guy only tell her such important information now?

Lin Rui was currently frowning, looking up and down at Shi Yan whose injuries were severe, several times worse than Nalan Wei and Zhang Jie, and it looked like one or two of her auxiliary armors were damaged as well.

"I have no problem fighting you, the purpose of inviting you here was for exchange and actual combat. However, you might not be able to fight in your current condition. How about this, after this exchange competition ends, we can have a private match —"

He was actually a bit puzzled; it was just an exchange competition, not a fight to the death or any formal competition, was there a need to fight to this extent?

Lin Rui hadn't finished speaking when he saw Shi Yan's body stumble forward.

She had been supporting herself with sheer willpower until now. Upon receiving Lin Rui's promise, the tension in her heart was relieved, and she couldn't hold on any longer, fainting on the spot.

There were already a bunch of medical personnel on the stage, who immediately helped Shi Yan onto a stretcher to start emergency treatment.

Fang Ranran, taking advantage of her status as a school director, had dug out Lin Rui's combat videos from the campus virtual reality combat platform.

"Damn, Junior Brother Lin's single stroke was too freaking awesome! Absolutely mind-blowing, too quick for anyone below level five to react."

After watching three video segments, Fang Ranran felt that Lin Rui might have used a cheat, he might have cheated.

The blade speed was too fast, extremely fast!

Fei Yunlai curiously asked, "Is there a video? Send me one."

After a slight hesitation, Fang Ranran still gave him one, "You can watch it, but it's self-destruct after viewing."

Fei Yunlai immediately opened the video to check, his expression growing more and more solemn.

A thousandth of a second?

This couldn't possibly be cheating; the stroke was not only swift but as smooth as flowing clouds and water, with a mystical trajectory like a beautiful poem, where melody and rhythm were perfectly integrated, infused with indescribable charm.

Next to him, Xie Qingtong itched with curiosity, longing to see for herself, but Fang Ranran hadn't sent it to her.

This video cannot be indiscriminately leaked.

By this time, Shi Yan had already been removed from the arena, and the traces on it had been cleaned up. The referee on top beckoned, signaling for the players of both sides to come onto the stage.

"I didn't expect my junior to have become this powerful."

Zhao Yan unzipped his jacket, carrying a pair of octagonal purple-gold hammers, and walked up to the arena, "Next, I will go all out, but if I still can't defeat the remaining three, I'll leave the rest to you, our team captain!"

He was earnestly suppressing the emotions in his heart that surged like magma.

Since being coldly dismissed from the Second City University's Martial Arts Club, his fighting spirit had never been as intense as it was today, nor had his blood ever boiled this fiercely.

Zhao Yan had seen the video and also saw hope.

The speed of Lin Rui's rise far exceeded his imagination. He was now sure he didn't need to wait until next year; in this year's Martial Arts League, he might just stand before that person!

When Zhao Yan climbed onto the platform, 'Electric Crane' Qi Hongfei also stood opposite him.

"Are you ready?" the referee glanced at them both, "Please pay attention to the electronic sound, the fight will start after the countdown."

'Electric Crane' Qi Hongfei's stance was casual, "I had heard of senior Zhao's name since high school and watched many of your combat videos. When I heard that senior Zhao was dismissed from the Second City University's Martial Arts Club, it felt regrettable. I never imagined I would have the opportunity to personally spar with you."

He spoke courteously, but his eyes hid a slight trace of disdain.

Qi Hongfei indeed had seen some of Zhao Yan's combat videos, which is why he knew what level Zhao Yan was at a year ago.

Zhao Yan had been sidelined for the past year and likely hadn't experienced real combat for a while.

Even if Zhao Yan had grown in martial arts and had implanted a synthetic Golden Core, advancing from a quasi-major to a minor-major rank, he was likely nothing to be feared.

Qi Hongfei also wanted to gauge the caliber of Mingde University's team captain to see if he was, as Zhang Jie described, a prehistoric behemoth.

It was simple, he just needed to take down Zhao Yan, the Deputy General!

Zhao Yan nodded silently, his face expressionless, "Junior Qi has gained fame in these past two years. It's also an honor for me to spar with you."

Although he hadn't noticed Qi Hongfei's contempt, he could feel this junior's determination to win at all costs.

Just then, the countdown ended.

Suddenly, behind Zhao Yan, there roared a sound akin to a savage ancient beast.

Moreover, two mighty barbaric beast phantoms, one of a 'dragon' and one of a 'tiger', materialized behind him, exuding utmost ferocity.

As 'Electric Crane' Qi Hongfei originally swept in, enveloped in majestic thunder and lightning and his form striking as a nimble crane, planning a fatal strike with his ultimate move,

with the roaring of the dragon and tiger phantoms, all surrounding thunder was scattered.

Zhao Yan, merely with his powerful aura, had shattered these thunderous forces, and his form was as fierce and agile as a dragon and tiger. With both hands wielding the heavy hammers like swinging whips, striking with force concentrated at the tips, he managed in just one hammer blow to send 'Electric Crane' Qi Hongfei staggering back, coughing up blood, forced to use his lightning escape technique to relieve the force.

Qi Hongfei's eyes were filled with disbelief. How could Zhao Yan be this strong?

His implanted synthetic Golden Core must certainly be top-tier, having perfected his martial arts to a divine level!

And regarding his auxiliary gear, Qi Hongfei couldn't ascertain its specifics, but it certainly wasn't inferior to Fang Ranran's, at least possessing six types of S+ grade supportive gear, reaching an over-king tier!

The problem was that although Zhao Yan was strong a year ago, his talent was at most mid-level among the top ten masters!

"He has already mastered the True Meaning of Dragon and Tiger!" said Fei Yunlai, looking at Zhao Yan with a sense of wonder.

Last time he advised Zhao Yan, the boy still lacked some experience. Little did he know that in such a short time, Zhao Yan had improved so much.

Across the platform, 'Magic Sword' Baili Wang shook his head slightly; "Qi Hongfei was careless, attacking the enemy's strength with his weakness. That one hammer strike must have already injured his internal organs. He's bound to lose."

This person is nicknamed 'Electric Crane'. From the nickname alone, one can imagine his martial arts feature predominantly clever and quick movements.

However, he just now accumulated power for a sword strike, aiming for a limit burst to suppress the front and defeat Zhao Yan with the fastest speed. Yet, he was taught a lesson by Zhao Yan.

For Qi Hongfei to revert to his usual method of fighting now is already too late, especially since Zhao Yan's 'Double Dragon and Tiger Form' martial arts inherently possess great speed.

"This Zhao Yan is stronger than our coaching team anticipated, ranking him among the top three of the ten masters. Even if Qi Hongfei hadn't been careless, he most likely wouldn't have stood a chance against Zhao Yan," he noted.

Zhen Xiaoxiao shook her head, "It seems that Mingde University's martial arts team is very strong! Although it doesn't seem like much now, with strength only comparable to our reserve team, give them another year, and they might have a chance at competing for the championship. And that Lin Rui—"

She and Baili Wang exchanged glances.

Both of their eyes brimmed with intense curiosity.

Did this person truly defeat Zhang Jie with a single strike? How strong is his swordsmanship, and in what manner is it formidable?

However, they should be able to see for themselves today.

Zhao Yan was very strong, and even if he were to enter a school like theirs in Tianjing, he would still carve out a place for himself.

However, his 'Dragon and Tiger Divine Form Hammer' technique is famously draining!

Although Qi Hongfei was not a match for Zhao Yan, he could still use his best movement technique to wear down Zhao Yan's True Yuan!

At that moment, they noticed the doors of several surrounding elevators opening, and a large group of people walked out.

Some were dressed in business attire—clearly people from 'Abyss' and 'Heavenly Sword' corporations. Others were carrying cameras, representing the major media outlets that had previously scorned this exchange battle.

After entering, all of them looked solemn, scanning the entire venue, and subsequently, all eyes turned towards Lin Rui.
