Human Shackles

With just a few strokes, Xiaoxue sketched out an extremely tragic picture, in which the man seemed to be struggling to his death.

Luo Kai guessed that the person in the painting might be himself, and couldn't help but said in horror: "Can you predict the future?"

Xiaoxue shook her head, lowered her head and continued painting. This time the scene changed. A man smiled and took a shining golden medal. In this way, Xiaoxue kept painting. Some men were running fast in the wilderness, with many people behind them. People were chasing, and some of them were men standing on the deck of the airship looking down...

After a while, she painted several scenes, and the protagonist was a man, that is, Luo Kai himself.

Luo Kai understood what Xiaoxue meant and said solemnly: "You mean there are countless possibilities in the future? You can only speculate rather than predict?"

Xiaoxue finally stopped painting and nodded heavily to him.

Most of the scenes were developing in a bad direction. Luo Kai's mind was shrouded in dark clouds. He didn't believe that anyone could predict the future. This involved the basic laws of time and space. If someone could predict the future, it would mean he could control it. Time and space, then they are not humans, but gods.

However, there are always traces of everything in the world, including time and space. In fact, everyone's time flow rate is relatively different. The faster the thinking speed of people, the slower the time flow rate. On the contrary, the slower people's time flow rate will be faster. This is This point is not a personal feeling, but a real existence, or it is a personal consciousness that affects the flow of external time to oneself.

The ability to predict danger that all living things have is actually a special product that transcends time. It's just that some people have particularly strong premonitions, while others are weaker. Luo Kai is relatively strong, and the pretty little girl in front of him is particularly strong. People, she can even calculate various possibilities based on her own hunch.

Luo Kai couldn't help but feel a little worried and looked towards the direction of the rostrum. There were some important figures from Star Horse Country sitting there. The great lord, Duke Ivan, was among them. In the middle sat an old man with white beard and hair. He was a star warrior from Star Horse Country. Fang Hong, the president of the association, is said to have been a high-level physical practitioner decades ago. Liu Hou guessed that he is only half a step away from becoming an advanced physical practitioner.

In addition to these two people, there are three high-level physical practitioners, an elegant old man with a green beard who is the principal of Jinlan Academy named Lu Rui, and a strong man carrying a long sword named Han. Xiang Bo, the chief instructor of Guanghan Sports School in Prefecture and County, and the last person is Liu Hou.

The five of them are all long-established high-level physical warriors. According to the records of the Taishu Association, there are only ten high-level physical warriors in Star Horse Kingdom. Five of them came today, which shows the importance of the fighting competition.

The fighting competition is not only a grand event in the physical arts world, but also the most important reference item for the various county sports schools to compete for rankings. They are usually ranked by ranking. Over the years, the students participating in the Jinlan Academy have been ranked highest, but they will also be ranked first. Opportunities for other schools, one or two of the top five spots will always be given to other sports schools, but this year's fighting competition is different. Military martial arts practitioners are involved. Not only do other sports schools have no chance, but even Jinlan It is also difficult for a school to enter the top five.

Five high-level gymnasts sat on the rostrum. Except for Duke Ivan, who was dozing off with his eyes squinted, the others looked not very good. Fang Hong, the president of the Taishu Association, smiled bitterly and explained to the people around him: "Everyone, let the army It was not my idea for Fang to participate, but a notice issued by the Taijutsu Federation, saying that the fighting competition excludes the military system, which is discriminatory."

The principal of Jinlan Sports School looked elegant and easy-going, but his words were full of gunpowder. He said coldly: "Huh, as far as I know, the higher-ups are just letting the local associations consider it, but there is no order."

"Alas, Principal Lu really misunderstood me. Beijing University is somewhat dissatisfied with the students we have sent over the years, and intends to reduce or cancel several exchange student quotas for Singapore and Malaysia. If the students trained by the principals are all elites, it will I don’t have to worry about it.”

At this moment, everyone else is speechless. It has become increasingly difficult to train sportsmen in recent years. This is just because the general environment is in a peaceful state. Most of the students in sports schools are born in a pampered environment. Without external pressure, they will naturally lose their ability to improve. Motivation, a comfortable life is good, but it can easily make people lose the spirit of martial arts and fighting. This is an inextricable knot. Even the advancement rate of Dongyuan Shangguo Taishi is getting lower and lower.

After a while, Fang Hong changed the topic: "Did everyone hear about the riot in Jinlan City last night?"

Xiang Bo, the chief instructor of Guanghan Sports School, immediately said excitedly: "I heard that a group of foreign athletes besieged a young man, and the young man killed four of them. Good guy, we haven't seen such a powerful person in Xingma Kingdom for a long time. character!"

"I wonder if Principal Liu has heard about it?" Fang Hong suddenly asked Liu Hou again.

Liu Hou said expressionlessly: "Of course I heard about it. It seems that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the people. We in the Taishu Association must not be arrogant."

"Haha, as far as I know, this young man is not a folk bodybuilder, but a first-level bodybuilder named by our Taishu Association. A group of mid-range bodyworkers killed by a first-level bodybuilder were unable to fight back. Hehe, if The first-level physical warriors are so good, but us old guys will have no shame in living."

Liu Hou was not talking. There was so much movement last night, so it was impossible to escape the eyes of those who were interested. Luo Kai's identity would definitely be exposed.

The admission screening in the school has begun. The competition system is very simple. There are five arenas in the arena. First, random matching. As long as you win three games in a row, you can enter the winner group and rest. The loser can still challenge other arenas until they win three games. After winning 10 games, they enter the upper bracket, and then there is the upper bracket match, which is the qualifying match, and the ranking is determined by the winning rate.

The finale is the challenge match. All players who have entered the qualifying round can challenge the player ranked higher. Once they win, they can occupy the player's ranking. In order to prevent the occurrence of wheel battles, the challenged player can refuse consecutive challenges. , but they cannot refuse the challenge of one ranked lower than themselves, that is, the first place player cannot refuse the challenge of the second place. In the end, the top five players will receive an invitation letter from Beijing University.

Lord Yiwen stood up, cleared his throat first, and read a long opening statement to the manuscript, looking for Shuyuan www. zhaoｓhuyuａ． com Until I became a little impatient, I simply interrupted and loudly announced the start of the fighting competition.

With the rumble of war drums, the contestants began to draw lots, and those who got the top five tags went directly to the ring, waiting for the challenge.

The reason why there are five arenas in the venue is because there is a tradition in fighting competitions, that is, one person occupies one arena and never comes down from the beginning to the end. He is called the overlord of the arena. There are very few such people, and manpower is limited after all. , even the physical warriors find it difficult to withstand the challenges in turn.

Luo Kai drew a tag of 105, indicating that there were more than a hundred contestants ahead of him.

"Luo Kai, how many did you draw?" Hao Fei asked eagerly from behind him.

"105."

"Damn, you're so lucky. The further back you are, the better. You can see what the guys in front are doing. I'm unlucky. I drew 10!"

Luo Kai smiled and said, "How about we switch?"

"Is that okay?" Hao Fei looked around cautiously.

Luo Kai's hearing was extremely acute and he heard many contestants around him secretly changing their tags. The later the competition, the greater the advantage. He could take action based on the physical skills of the previous contestants, but this didn't matter to him. He handed the tag in his hand to Hao Fei.

"Isn't this bad?" Hao Fei hesitated. He had seen Luo Kai's terrifying technique of knocking away bullets with his fists, and guessed that Luo Kai was the ace secretly sent by the school. It was best not to expose such a trump card prematurely.

Luo Kai took the No. 10 tag from Hao Fei's hand and turned to look at the arena. The southeast corner of the arena was the most eye-catching. On the arena was a bald man with scars on his face. He didn't stand like a normal person, but He was half lying on the ground, his muscles bulging like a tiger ready to attack.
