Chapter 122 - The Power of a Divine Weapon!
These little fangirls couldn’t even see Carl’s battle movements clearly, but they were able to add remarks here and there, which was very impressive.
“That… you guys…” Andrew didn’t know how to speak. “Can you guys see the battle on the stage clearly?”
These little fangirls turned their heads. The moment they saw Andrew, they immediately screamed.
“You’re Grandmaster Thunderblade!”
A girl yelled loudly.
It had to be said that her voice was very loud. It made Andrew’s ears hurt a little.
With her shout, the attention of the audience, who were originally all focused on the arena, shifted over.
“It’s actually Grandmaster Thunderblade!”
“Is it that eighteen-year-old seventh rank grandmaster? He looks so young and handsome!”
The praises that should have showered on Carl were now all on Andrew.
Carl stood on the stage and looked at Andrew.
His eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a trace of disdain and anger.
He didn’t expect that the moment Andrew appeared, he would steal all the limelight that originally belonged to him.
Carl was born in a martial arts family, which was the source of his magical knife skills.
Therefore, he got some insider information and knew that Andrew had an Ultimate master.
“If he didn’t rely on his master, how could his strength increase so fast!” Carl said with hatred in his heart.
“He just advanced to the seventh grade, and he is only the second-to-last grandmaster on the Grandmaster list. What’s so great about him?”
Andrew had an Ultimate master. This information was not a secret in the martial arts world.
As long as someone with some background could inquire about it, they would know.
However, Andrew’s battles were deliberately hidden by the Martial Arts Administration, so no one in the whole country knew what kind of brilliant battle results Andrew had.
This caused people like Carl to be very envious and jealous.
Andrew glanced at Carl in the ring.
Although Carl quickly withdrew his gaze, Andrew’s perception was very sharp. In that instant, he had noticed his hostility towards him.
Andrew was a little speechless. He felt that this person in the ring… was sick.
Because of Andrew’s arrival, the place was a little chaotic. It was only with the appearance of the instructor in the stands that the scene stabilized.
Teacher Halley stood up and said in a low voice. “Carl, you have already defeated three opponents in a row. You can now choose to leave the stage to rest or continue to choose your new opponent.”
“I will continue to challenge!” Carl said with a cold smile.
His eyes became a little vicious. After sweeping his gaze across the entire arena, his gaze finally fixed on a beautiful woman.
Annie!
“I want to challenge Annie!”
These words were like a clap of thunder, exploding on the field.
It caused all the students to discuss among themselves.
One had to know that Carl and Annie were both sophomores at Stanford University. Moreover, they were publicly acknowledged as the two strongest sophomores.
These two actually wanted to meet in the preliminary round?
“Something’s wrong. Weren’t there some rumors that Carl wanted to pursue Annie?”
“Why is Carl challenging Annie now?”
Many people began to gossip. Some people were eager to see Carl and Annie fight intensely. They just wanted to know who was stronger.
“How shameless. This Carl has already advanced to the intermediate level of the fourth grade, but Annie has just advanced to the fourth grade. How can she be his opponent?”
“Carl is indeed a little too much. As the pursuers of Goddess Annie, we definitely can’t let Annie be bullied by Carl!”
While the group of students was discussing, another person came up with a piece of important news.
“Don’t you guys know that Annie is Andrew’s sister?”
This news quickly spread throughout the audience.
Everyone was discussing fervently. Carl had chosen to challenge Annie at this time. Was he provoking Grandmaster Thunderblade?
Andrew laughed.
This person was Annie’s pursuer?
And he was hostile towards him?
Was he courting death?
Andrew quickly came to Annie’s side and asked in a low voice, “Sister, have you brought your Fifteen?”
Annie shook her head, “This is only the preliminary round of the martial arts competition. There’s no need to bring the divine weapon.”
“Who said there’s no need?” Andrew frowned, “It’s definitely too late for you to go back and get it now. You can take my sword first. Although it’s not a divine weapon, it’s more powerful than a divine weapon!
“And these shoes, they have already been modified. They are also a divine item. You can put them on.”
As soon as Andrew finished speaking, the surrounding students were all dumbfounded.
A divine weapon?
The vast majority of the students had never seen a divine weapon in their entire lives, let alone using one.
The one who was the most dumbfounded was still Carl, who was in the ring.
Two divine weapons?
How could they fight like this?
Everyone was at the fourth grade, but you were taking out two divine weapons?
There was no need to compete in this battle. The victor was already decided!
Wasn’t this bullying?
However, there were still some students in the audience seats who didn’t even know what a divine weapon was.
After all, this kind of thing was too far away from them.
“May I ask, what is a divine weapon?”
“A divine weapon is exclusive to grandmasters and above. However, divine weapons are very rare. The vast majority of grandmasters do not have a divine weapon.”
“I don’t think so. Andrew is ranked last on the grandmaster ranking, which means that his strength is weak among grandmasters. Even he has two divine weapons, which means that it is not difficult to obtain a divine weapon.”
“You said that Carl wanted to challenge Annie, but Andrew had such a big reaction. These two are only half-siblings. Their relationship is not ordinary.”
“Half-siblings… Half-siblings?”
A classmate frowned.
How could he not understand this relationship?
Annie put on the divine shoes and picked up the sword. She felt that her whole body became lighter, and her speed had increased a lot.
“Whoosh!”
Annie arrived on the stage at an astonishing speed.
Her speed was at least twice as fast as usual!
What was even more terrifying was that the tip of the sword accidentally touched the ground of the stage.
Whoosh!
The stage was directly pierced, and a large hole appeared.
Carl looked at the scene in front of him and was stunned.
“Teacher, this should be cheating! How can we fight like this!”
But Teacher Halley shook his head. “In this National Martial Arts Conference, we consider weapons as a part of a fighter’s strength. There is no problem for Annie to wear two divine weapons. Now, the battle begins!”
“Fuck!”
Carl cursed in a low voice.
This was an opponent that he had chosen himself. No matter what, he could only brace himself and fight.
