"Good!"

Feeling the rising fighting spirit in Jiang Li's words, Wang Ye stopped persuading.

"The only way to participate in the New Star Cup is to defeat the top ten ranked individuals! Take their positions!"

"But in order to initiate a battle for a top ten ranking, your own ranking needs to be within the top 30," Wang Ye added.

"The weekly ranking battles start on Monday."

At the same time, a voice from the system sounded in Jiang Li's mind.

[Ding, congratulations, host, for triggering a short-term mission: participate in the ranking battle, obtain qualification for the New Star Cup competition, the higher the ranking, the richer the rewards.]

Triggering a mission, Jiang Li felt a surge of excitement. He had been worried about not having enough Qi Gathering Pills.

Compared to the items exchangeable with academy points, Jiang Li felt that the rewards from the system missions were more attractive to him.

In that case, he needed to act quickly.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li spoke up:

"Today is Monday, which means I can participate in the ranking battle today, right?"

Wang Ye was taken aback, but nodded and said:

"That's right, starting today, each of your new students' accounts has been credited with 100 points, and the bet for each challenge is 50 points."

Jiang Li's mouth curled up, and he pointed his finger.

"I want to challenge the senior student behind you, on your right."

"Me??"

Behind Wang Ye, there was a man about 1.8 meters tall, with a well-proportioned muscular build, who looked puzzled at the moment.

He had come at the invitation of the mentor, along with another partner, to put on a display of strength in front of the new students.

The display had not yet been made, and he had not expected to be challenged directly by a new student. Were all the new students so wild these days?

Another young man beside him laughed and patted his shoulder, saying:

"Fan Qing, you really have been looked down upon by your junior. If others find out, you'll lose face."

The onlookers, who had initially thought Jiang Li was just seeking attention, were surprised to find that he was actually going to challenge a senior student on the spot.

At this point, they couldn't help but become interested.

"I bet he won't last three moves!"

"Three moves? Three seconds! Do you know how powerful the physical bodies of high-level Transcendent ability users are? A punch that can shatter rocks is no joke!"

"Will he... accidentally get beaten to death?"

The classmates were all talking at once.

Fan Qing looked at the mentor Wang Ye on the side, and after getting a nod of approval, he walked up to Jiang Li.

"Junior, if you take back your challenge now, I can pretend I didn't hear it. After all, it's not honorable to take points from a new student."

Jiang Li just smiled.

"Thank you for your kindness, but because you see me as a weakling due to my young age, this is not a good habit."

Feeling Jiang Li's fighting spirit, Fan Qing's expression also became serious.

"Understood. Ranked 19, Fan Qing, I accept your challenge!"

Jiang Li walked to the center of the reception room, while Wang Ye and another senior student stepped aside, leaving the fighting space to the two of them.

"Junior, please."

Jiang Li was also not polite, and with a burst of his legs, his body instantly turned into a residual image.

The next second, he was already by Fan Qing's side.

"So fast!" Fan Qing immediately put away his contempt. His realm had already reached Transcendent 9th stage, but he could barely see Jiang Li's movements.

However, as an earth attribute user, he was not known for his speed.

Fan Qing instantly kicked out with a side whip kick, tearing the air in front of him, like a battle axe, fiercely sweeping towards the direction where Jiang Li appeared.

"Bang!"

Jiang Li protected his chest with both arms, taking on this terrifying blow.

"Such strong power."

Jiang Li couldn't help but admire. Even though he had advanced to the 8th layer of Qi Refining, he still needed 70% of his strength to withstand this kick.

Was this the physical strength of a Transcendent Late Stage?

Just as Jiang Li was about to counterattack, the whistling fist wind was already approaching, forcing him to defend again.

Fan Qing's attack frequency was extremely fast, and each move was powerful and cunning, forcing Jiang Li to be on the defensive and retreat step by step!

Fan Qing felt that the junior in front of him had extremely strong physical qualities, not inferior to himself at all, but he had very little experience in fighting against others.

His intentions, whether in attack or defense, were all clear at a glance.

Although he had great potential, he was not yet his opponent!

The surrounding students were already stunned. They couldn't see the movements of the two in the fight at all, only feeling that the two residual images were coming and going, occasionally emitting terrifying sonic booms.

With this kind of combat power, if it were them, they would instantly turn into a pile of tomato sauce.

I thought Jiang Li was just a clown. Now it seems that the clown is actually me?

Jiang Li was retreating step by step, but he was extremely excited inside. What he lacked was exactly this kind of opportunity to hone his combat skills in a fight against others!

If he really wanted to win the fight, he could use the full power of the Illusory Immortal Step and defeat Fan Qing in less than ten moves.

But he didn't do that, and kept his strength at the same level as Fan Qing, without using the Illusory Immortal Step.

He wanted to hone his combat skills!

The two fought back and forth for ten minutes and still showed no signs of exhaustion.

Not only that, Fan Qing was shocked to find that from the initial passive defense, Jiang Li was able to counterattack every five moves, and now he seemed to be evenly matched with himself.

He was learning his own combat skills in the fight!

What a terrifying talent for combat! Such talent was probably not inferior to the one ranked first.

However, in a moment of distraction, Jiang Li's fist actually broke through his defense and landed heavily on his chest.

"What!" Fan Qing exclaimed. If the strength of the two had been evenly matched before, the force of Jiang Li's punch was far superior to his own.

He had been hiding his true strength!

Unfortunately, he found out too late. Jiang Li's fist, weighing tens of thousands of pounds, was like a charge from an ancient dragon, ruthlessly destroying all of Fan Qing's defenses.

"Boom!"

The force of the punch exploded on his chest, and Fan Qing was sent flying like a cannonball.

The speed was so fast that even the naked eye could hardly catch it.

"Oh no, I didn't hold back!" Jiang Li was shocked. The fight had been too exhilarating, and his emotions were running high.

As a result, he had used nearly 90% of his strength in that punch.

He was still very grateful to this senior student. Through the fight with him, he had largely made up for his lack of experience in fighting against others.

However, just as Fan Qing's body was about to hit the wall, Wang Ye made a move!

In addition to his speed, even with Jiang Li's strength, he could not see his movements at all. In the blink of an eye, Wang Ye had disappeared from his original position.

The next moment, Fan Qing's body, which had been flying like a cannonball, was forcibly stopped, sitting on the ground, just half a meter away from the wall.

Fan Qing's eyes were blank, as if he hadn't reacted to what had happened. On his chest, there was a deep fist mark emitting a steaming heat.

"Fan Qing, you've lost."
