Chapter 267
Everyone thought that everything was over and that the final battle was over.
However, at the crucial moment, Chen Yu suddenly attacked.
This scene made everyone's hearts pound. They could not believe their eyes.
Everyone's eyes were on the stage.
Even the mentors of the academy could not control their emotions.
The reason for that was because all of this was truly too unexpected.
Boom!
With a loud bang, a black tornado surged and engulfed the two figures.
Whoosh!
A figure was thrown out from the black tornado. It was Situ Linyu.
His right face was red and swollen. It was obvious that he had been punched by Chen Yu.
Boom!
Situ Linyu slammed heavily onto the stage, causing a layer of dust to rise. His eyes were blank and he could not accept what had happened.
From the beginning, Situ Linyu was certain that he was the champion of this year's Freshmen Competition.
But at the very last moment, he, who was proficient in secret mental techniques, was defeated by a body cultivator.
This was something that he had never expected and could not accept.
Situ Linyu's eyes darkened, and a dark evil light flashed in his eyes. A faint pattern appeared on his forehead.
"No … I can't use it with my current cultivation level …"
Situ Linyu hesitated for a moment before he closed his eyes.
He took a deep breath and opened his eyes again. The unwillingness and anger in his eyes gradually disappeared.
Although Situ Linyu's strange behavior and the strange pattern on his forehead only lasted for a moment …
But Chen Yu still noticed it.
After all, Situ Linyu did not leave the stage and did not admit defeat. He was still wary of Situ Linyu's tricks.
"That is …"
Chen Yu felt that Situ Linyu was not simple. He might have some tricks up his sleeves.
However, Chen Yu also had some tricks up his sleeves, such as the Dragon Scale Bloodline and the Xiantian True Fire Glazed Flame.
"I admit defeat!"
Situ Linyu said.
He had used up too much of his mental energy and his evil spirit had been damaged. Chen Yu's punch had also caused him serious injuries.
Furthermore, he was wary of Chen Yu's strength.
After a while, the crowd burst into an uproar.
"Situ Linyu actually lost to Chen Yu!"
"How is this possible? Hasn't the weakness of physical cultivators always been the mind? How could Chen Yu defeat Situ Linyu, who is proficient in Secret Soul Techniques?! "
Many people felt that this result was somewhat unreal.
After all, Duan Hao, who had defeated Cao Zhongtian, had long since made preparations to deal with Situ Linyu. However, he had still been easily defeated by Situ Linyu.
And Chen Yu had successfully defeated Situ Linyu!
"How is this possible? Situ Linyu has lost! "
The grey-robed mentors from the Evil Spirit Academy were also a little shocked.
He had thought that the first place was within his grasp, but it was snatched away by a student from another academy.
"Looks like Chen Yu has also encountered quite a lot of opportunities. Although he isn't proficient in the mental aspect, his mental strength is especially strong. At most, he is only slightly weaker than Situ Linyu!"
Instructor Xu exclaimed.
As an Origin Realm expert, through the battle between the two of them, he could clearly see the situation of both of them.
"That's right. Furthermore, Chen Yu's attainments in the Evil Dao aren't low either. He has even comprehended a trace of Devil Intent, which makes his mental strength abnormally strong!"
"At the end, Chen Yu's counterattack before his death seems to be because he has an item that can defend against mental attacks!"
A few of the instructors discussed. This year's Freshmen Tournament was indeed too unexpected.
On the side of Yunyang Academy.
The elder in cloud robes and the four other academies still had a look of surprise on their faces.
"How … is this possible!"
Lv Ze shook his head slightly.
The person that he viewed as an ant, Chen Yu, had actually created miracles time after time and even defeated Situ Linyu.
"Chen Yu!"
Princess Ning's beautiful eyes looked at Chen Yu seriously.
Once again, Chen Yu had shocked the entire audience. He had single-handedly trampled on the prodigies of the Ten Great Ancient Clans and the Four Great Clans.
"Chen Yu wins!"
The judge announced the result.
After the battle ended, the two of them returned to stage number one and two.
This challenge was initiated by Situ Linyu. Next, it was Chen Yu's turn.
"Give up!"
Chen Yu said.
At this moment, did he still need to challenge anyone?
"The third round of challenges is over. Now, the fourth round will begin!"
The judge announced again.
Although three rounds of ranking battles had been carried out.
However, there were still a few people who still had the right to challenge Chen Yu. For example, Situ Linyu had only failed to challenge Chen Yu.
After two battles in the third round, it was Situ Linyu's turn again.
It was difficult to recover from mental injuries in a short period of time, so Situ Linyu had to give up the challenge.
Now, the Freshmen Tournament of the No-Demon Academy was over!
According to the number of students standing on the stone stage, the top twenty rankings were clear at a glance.
First: Chen Yu
Second: Situ Linyu
Third: Cao Zhongtian
Fourth: Luo Yongguang
Fifth: Zhang Nan
Sixth: Duan Hao
Seventh: Nie Xuan
…
"Fortunately, Duan Hao has no more challenges, otherwise I would not be able to keep the third place!"
Cao Zhongtian secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
Before the competition, he was full of confidence. As long as he was not unlucky, he had a great chance of winning first place.
But at this moment, if Duan Hao had not had no more challenges, he would have been kicked out of the top three.
Outside the arena.
"That kid actually won first place …"
Luo Haotian's face was gloomy, and his eyes were cold.
He had no doubt that with Chen Yu's talent, he would catch up to him in a few years.
"I will not allow that to happen!"
Luo Haotian said coldly, and his figure instantly disappeared …
"Next, the rewards will be given out!"
The organizer of the competition, Gao Liang, said.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
The top ten students could not help but smile.
"The rewards for the top ten!"
The sixth to tenth places went to the pavilion to receive their rewards.
The rewards for the top ten included fifty thousand demon points and a Qi Refining Pill.
Students under the Xiantian Realm might not be able to earn fifty thousand demon points in two to three years.
The Qi Refining Pill could increase the foundation of a Houtian Realm cultivator, making it easier for them to advance to the Xiantian Realm.
However, the No-Demon Academy did not expect that there would be six Xiantian Realm students in this year's competition. The value of the Qi Refining Pill was greatly reduced, and to Duan Hao, who was ranked sixth, it was like a useless pill.
Of course, with Duan Hao's background, he did not care about the rewards for the top ten.
"The rewards for the top three!"
Third place: Reward: 35,555 Demonic Points, one Spirit Cleansing Pill, one high-grade artifact.
Compared to the rewards for the top ten, the rewards for the third place were much more abundant, and there was even a high-grade treasure.
The Spirit Cleansing Pill could cleanse the soul, removing negative energy from the mind, and reduce the chance of cultivation deviation.
To the No-Demon Academy students, the Spirit Cleansing Pill was an extremely popular pill.
Second place: 45,555 Demonic Points, a Blood Melting Pill, and a High-Grade Artifact.
The Blood Refining Pill could not only strengthen the body, but it was also a supplementary pill that could help a Houtian or early Xiantian Realm cultivator break through a bottleneck.
"The rewards for the first place!"
Under the gazes of tens of thousands of people, Chen Yu arrived alone at the place to receive the rewards.
The black-armored middle-aged man opened a jade plate, and three items appeared.
One was the No-Demon Academy's token with 655,555 demon points.
The second item was a transparent jade bottle, and inside it was a crystal white pill with dragon markings.
Rising Dragon Pill. This pill could cleanse the body, repair hidden injuries, and promote a leap in one's level of life. It had a great healing effect on Houtian realm injuries, and it would also eliminate any future problems. Even some Xiantian realm powerhouses had injuries that could be healed by it.
Apart from that, this pill had a slight effect on the spiritual body's aptitude. The effects varied according to the specific effects.
"It can increase the spiritual body's aptitude?"
Chen Yu picked up the jade bottle and examined it carefully.
Although the effect was weak, it was still effective.
Up until now, Chen Yu had only seen a Moon Spirit Ore with this effect, and this Ascending Dragon Pill was the second one.
The moment he picked up the Ascending Dragon Pill, Chen Yu could clearly feel the countless greedy eyes around the Devil Sky Peak.
This pill's healing effect was effective even for late stage Xiantian Realm experts, and it could increase the spiritual body's aptitude to a certain extent.
Only an Origin Realm expert would be able to resist the temptation of this pill.
Apart from that, the third item was two small tokens. They could be used to pick two high-grade artifacts from the No-Demon Academy's Demonic Weapon Pavilion.
According to the usual practice, after the rewards were given out, there would be another matter.
That was the mentor's choice.
Mentors would only be able to understand every student's situation through the Freshmen Tournament and make the best choice.
Furthermore, the acceptance of disciples wasn't limited to the academy. Mentors could accept students from any branch as their disciples, but of course, they had to get the student's approval.
Being accepted as a disciple by a mentor, not only would they enjoy many benefits, they would also have a backer in the academy, and the possibility of revenge would be greatly reduced. Furthermore, they could receive guidance from the mentors, which was a lot of benefits.
However, some outstanding students had already been accepted as disciples by some mentors before the Freshmen Tournament.
For example, Situ Linyu, Nie Xuan, etc.
There were also some older students who had already become disciples of some mentors.
"Wei Ran, are you willing to be my disciple?"
Another mentor from the Evil Spirit Academy asked.
Wei Ran was an older student and wasn't chosen by a mentor in the previous Freshmen Tournament.
But in this Freshmen Tournament, his ranking wasn't bad, and he was acknowledged by a mentor.
"This disciple is willing!"
Wei Ran smiled elegantly and cupped his fists in a cultured manner.
"Li Yan, are you willing to be my disciple?"
A teacher from an unpopular branch looked at the flirtatious woman.
This girl was also a freshman, and with her late-stage Postliminary Realm cultivation, she was able to squeeze into the top 75.
"This girl is willing!"
Li Yan smiled charmingly.
At this moment, Blood Fiend Sect's Liu Xuanzong stood up.
In this Freshmen Tournament, Blood Fiend Sect occupied three of the top 75 places, and among them, the first place belonged to Blood Fiend Sect.
Liu Xuanzong glanced at Chen Yu with admiration in his eyes, then shifted his gaze.
"Duan Hao, are you willing to be my disciple?"
Liu Xuanzong stared at Duan Hao.
"I am willing!"
Duan Hao's expression was cold, but a strong fighting spirit could be seen in his eyes.
He had lost in this Freshmen Tournament, but he would catch up to Situ Linyu and Chen Yu as soon as possible, and even surpass them.
As long as he could quickly increase his strength, he was willing to accept it.
"Eh? No mentor has taken a liking to Chen Yu? "
Cao Zhongtian, Luo Yongguang, and the others were puzzled.
Logically speaking, the first place of every Freshmen Tournament would be fought among the mentors, and the students would be able to choose themselves.
But this time, not a single mentor wanted to take Chen Yu as a disciple.
