Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain-Chapter 53 - Severe Situation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After two days and six rounds of intense competition, after the seventh round of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition, the number of competitors had already decreased greatly.
Take the groups below the age of 20 for example. In the first round, there were a total of 14,993 martial artists who signed up to participate. As for the seventh round of the competition today, there were only 256 left.
However, compared to the past two days, the attention received today was much greater.
The reason was very simple. Because there was no threshold set for the martial artists participating in the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition, the levels of the martial artists who came to register were mixed. As a result, the vast majority of the competitions two days ago were like what Rengal
had evaluated in the program—their standards were too low, and it was truly unbearable to watch.
Now, after six rounds of elimination, those who could pass six rounds in a row and still remain in the arena were nearly all powerful martial artists. The competition naturally became even more intense and exciting.
However, there was another important reason why more people were paying attention to the competition today.
!!The “Focus News” program of the Federation’s Information Martial Arts World Channel was an extremely popular program. On the program yesterday, as a guest, Tang Xiaoyou took out an abnormally detailed dataset, proving that after three rounds of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition, the
situation was extremely serious for the Earth Federation.
The data showed that as the martial arts competition continued, the proportion of participating martial artists belonging to the federation was actually decreasing at an extremely obvious rate.
This was a martial arts competition held in the territory of the Earth Federation. It could be said to be a home ground battle. The results obtained were actually so lousy!
Therefore, under the deliberate push of some people and the media, the number of martial artists participating greatly decreased, and the number of people paying attention to this competition increased.
In just a day, the news and discussion about the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition on the Milky Way Network increased more than ten times. This competition almost instantly became the focus of attention of several countries.
The people of the Earth Federation naturally hoped to see the martial artists of the Earth Federation obtain good results in the next few rounds of the competition and the final stage to protect the honor of the Earth Federation. As for the countries outside the Earth Federation, they were naturally happy
to see the Earth Federation embarrassed.
In fact, among those countries with their own martial artists participating and passing the first six rounds of the competition, many people directly mocked the Earth Federation publicly, causing the Earth Federation to counterattack. Therefore, an extremely intense flame war had erupted.
However, no matter how well they argued, it was not as convincing as the truth.
The next day, after the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition ended, the statistics after the six rounds were immediately compiled.
According to the competition rules, after the sixth round, the remaining martial artists in the West Cloud Planet’s martial artist competition were 512 in the adult group above the age of 20, and 256 in the young martial artist group below the age of 20.
Of the remaining 512 participating martial artists in the adult group, only 187 were left from the Earth Federation! They had barely passed a third!
However, this was not the most shocking thing. What truly shocked and even frightened the people of the Earth Federation was that out of the 256 participating martial artists below the age of 20, only 42 were left!
It was less than a sixth!
This time, people truly valued the topic mentioned by Tang Xiaoyou on the “Focus News” program.
‘The young martial artists represented the future. With such poor results, it meant that the future of the martial artists of the Earth Federation was unimaginable. It could even mean that the martial arts quality of the entire Earth Federation was falling!
Perhaps some people were not too interested in this overly broad topic, but they had to admit that there was another possibility that Tang Xiaoyou had mentioned.
‘That was, in this martial arts competition organized by the West Cloud Planet, the champion might be a non-Earth Federation martial artist!
If this could become reality, it would be the humiliation of the entire Earth Federation!
Therefore, the third day of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts competition became the focus of countless people.
If the last three rounds of the elimination stage on the third day were still like the previous two days, then there might even be very few Earth Federation martial artists who entered the final stage. The hope of winning the championship was naturally even more remote.
They could not allow this to happen!
“Martial Artists of the federation! Please fight for the honor of the federation!”
Chu Nan had just walked out of the floating shuttle specially sent by West Cloud Academy today. When he saw the surging crowd and the huge banner that was raised the most in the crowd, he could not help but be stunned.
“What’s going on?”
Although there were many spectators in the competition two days ago, most of the audience only pretended to watch the competition leisurely. Most of them treated this competition as a grand entertainment event.
Why did it seem like the audience had completely changed after not seeing them for a day? All of them became extremely excited, and there was even a faint trace of anger?
He turned around and looked at the seven floating shuttle cars that belonged to West Cloud Academy that followed behind him, as well as the students and teachers who were walking out from the seven cars with various support banners in their hands. Chu Nan finally felt that something was wrong
“Hey, Dong Fang, do you know what’s going on?” Chu Nan grabbed Dong Fang who had just gotten out of the floating Lock Car and walked over. He pointed at the crowd shouting their slogans.
“What’s going on?” Dong Fang glanced in the direction Chu Nan pointed and nodded before laughing, “Ha, have you forgotten the one I showed you yesterday?”
‘The virtual figure projection that Dong Fang had shown him last night flashed through Chu Nan‘s mind, causing him to feel even more puzzled.
“What’s going on?”
“Heh, didn’t I tell you yesterday that this competition…”
After Dong Fang’s rough explanation, Chu Nan finally understood what was going on.
“No wonder the academy took it so seriously today. They even specially sent a car to send us over and even pulled a bunch of students and teachers to be cheerleaders…”
Chu Nan’s gaze swept past the students who were being organized by the other teachers and felt a little funny.
On the first day of the competition, although the academy was careful, they only sent a team leader teacher and a logistics team composed of five staff members to follow.
Early this morning, West Cloud Academy sent out a total of seven cars. In total, there were more than 200 people.
Apart from the teacher-in-charge, the logistics team had also increased to 15 people. Even the Deputy Dean of the Martial Arts Branch followed.
Coupled with the cheerleader squad of more than a hundred people, the lineup could be said to be abnormally huge.
Chu Nan had originally thought that he had benefited from another participant of the academy, who was also the biological son of the West Cloud Academy’s dean, Feng Xiao. Now that he heard Dong Fang’s explanation, he discovered the reason why it was so laughable.
“Hmph, can victory and defeat between martial artists be decided by shouting slogans?”
Chu Nan glanced at Feng Xiao who was surrounded by a few teachers and shook his head..
