SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 201

Chapter 201: Totem Planted! The Dumbfounded Audience!

TL: Rui88

The students from Modu University discussed amongst themselves as they looked at Li Xin in their team and said with a smile:

“Brother Xin, your match is the first one later, don’t show any mercy.”

Li Xin was an 18th level Martial Artist. Unlike the ordinary Warrior and Saint Knight profession contestants, his figure did not appear tall and large but was instead very well-proportioned.

However, judging from the muscle lines of his exposed arms, his explosive power was clearly extremely strong.

And in his previous battles, some enemies who had overlooked him because of his size had also suffered an incomparably heavy price…

“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t hold back.” Li Xin smiled and nodded.

Unlike most people in the team, he did not find Zhou Yi displeasing to the eye.

He just purely wanted to fight every battle well.

“Be careful, Zhou Yi’s strength is formidable.” Wei He spoke up.

Although most people thought that Zhou Yi, with his Saint Knight profession, did not have much strength, his intuition still made him feel an extreme sense of danger from Zhou Yi.

In the entire Modu University representative team, the captain Wei He undoubtedly had the absolute say, and his strength was also the strongest.

Li Xin obviously did not expect that the strong captain would say such a thing. After a slight daze, he nodded solemnly:

“Brother Wei, I understand.”

Afterward, he began to put on his equipment and weapon.

His equipment was a suit of pale cyan leather armor.

As soon as he put it on, it gave people an incomparably light feeling.

And his weapons were a pair of alloy gauntlets.

Li Xin’s level was 18, and all his equipment was also right at level 18.

Of course, the grade of all his equipment was Gold-grade…

The enhancement that level 18 Gold-grade equipment provided to a professional was beyond doubt.

As soon as Li Xin finished equipping it, he faintly exuded a powerful sense of oppression.

“As expected of Brother Xin, this aura is amazing!”

“The level 18 Gale Leather Armor Set. When the fight starts later, I’m afraid Zhou Yi won’t even be able to touch a single hair on Brother Xin!”

“Haha, that’s indeed true.”

“…”

The Martial Artist profession mainly added points to the strength and agility attributes.

And Li Xin’s point allocation was more skewed towards agility, which also resulted in his movement being extremely flexible and his speed being extremely fast!

Coupled with the Gold-grade Gale Set that mainly enhanced the agility attribute, ordinary professionals had no way of catching up at all, not to mention the clumsy Saint Knight!!

…

…

Soon, the time came to nine in the morning.

The host of the solo competition also came to the front stage.

“Welcome, friends online and offline. Today, we are about to begin the third round of the solo competition!!”

“In the first two rounds of competition, a total of 65 contestants were eliminated.”

“Today, in the third round of the competition, another 11 contestants will be eliminated.”

“Who will be gloriously promoted, and who will leave in disappointment? Let us all wait and see!!”

As a national event, the National University Freshman Exchange Competition not only had a luxurious venue but also complete supporting facilities.

Even the host was selected from over a thousand gold medal hosts.

At this time, with just a few words, he had livened up the emotions in the entire stadium!!

“Zhou Yi!! Zhou Yi is the strongest!!”

“Modu University, Wei He is the strongest!!”

“Goddess Jiang! I will forever be your supporter!!”

“…”

In the spectator stands, more than a hundred thousand spectators were cheering wildly for their favorite contestants.

The waves of sound that were stirred up caused the entire stadium to faintly vibrate along with them.

If the stadium had not been specially reinforced with a magic array, this crazy shouting might have caused resonance, leading to the collapse of the building.

“There are a total of 11 matches in the third round of the solo competition. Next, let’s welcome the two contestants for our first match to the stage!!”

“Li Xin! Zhou Yi!!”

Amidst the host’s loud tone, on both sides of the huge arena in the center of the stadium, a figure walked out from each side.

The figure that walked out from the left was extremely tall, and his pair of black and white eyes were incomparably calm.

Behind him, a slightly shattered totem stone pillar bloomed with a faint holy radiance.

Paired with that steady aura, his entire person seemed full of oppression!!

The figure that walked out from the right was slightly slender, dressed in cyan leather armor, with a faint smile on his face.

The alloy gauntlets on both hands reflected a cold, chilling light under the sunlight.

“Zhou Yi!!”

“Zhou Yi!!”

“Li Xin!!”

“Li Xin!!”

“…”

Many spectators were shouting wildly.

However, what was interesting was that most of the spectators cheering for Zhou Yi were female.

Whether they were the younger little lolis, the young maidens in the prime of their youth, or the slightly more mature young matrons, they covered almost all age groups of women.

And those who cheered for Li Xin were mostly some hot-blooded teenagers and youths.

“Brother Yi’s popularity is simply…”

Liu Yang, who noticed this, was very emotional.

One had to know, he had also entered the third round of the competition.

But he dared to guarantee that when he went on stage, there would absolutely not be so many women cheering for him.

And Jiang Churan, who was sitting in her seat next to him, while feeling proud of her Brother Zhou Yi’s popularity, couldn’t help but feel her sense of crisis intensifying again…

…

…

On the arena, the two stood a hundred meters apart, facing each other.

“Modu University, Li Xin!”

“Suhang University, Zhou Yi!”

Friendship first, competition second.

This was one of the tenets of the National University Freshman Exchange Competition, although when the solo competition had first been held, this tenet had not been followed much.

But the two still followed the rules and reported their school names to each other.

“Originally, I just wanted to finish you off quickly. But the captain said you are very strong, so I can only give it my all.”

Li Xin’s face was solemn. He stood with one leg in front of the other, and his hands, wearing gauntlets, also assumed a stance.

“Captain?”

Zhou Yi raised an eyebrow and quickly understood that the other party was talking about Wei He.

“To be able to faintly perceive my strength, it seems his strength is also not bad.”

Living beings had auras.

An aura was a very broad term, but if you thought about it carefully, you would find that this was very common in daily life.

For example, on Blue Star, if both were level 20 professionals, the one who had never seen blood, when meeting the other who often went into the wild to fight with magical beasts, would easily be able to feel the strong pressure brought by the other party!!

A firm will, powerful strength, a ruthless personality, and so on would all produce an aura.

For example, Zhou Yi.

Even if he did not use any skills, if he entered the college entrance examination dungeon again, the will he naturally exuded would make the monsters and magical beasts not dare to approach.

However, after arriving at Qingjing University, Zhou Yi’s aura had already been restrained a lot.

Even so, it was still perceived, which could only mean that this Wei He’s strength was also very powerful.

“That’s right, as the captain of Modu University, it would be strange if he wasn’t strong.”

Shaking his head, Zhou Yi looked across.

Although they were a hundred meters apart, he could still clearly see the tensed state of the Martial Artist opposite him.

“Level 22, level 18…”

“A four-level gap. If I use a Light’s Punishment, I’m afraid this Li Xin will be done for.”

“The first team competition against Qingjing University is tomorrow. According to Instructor Wu Mang’s instructions, it’s better not to expose too much of my strength.”

“Then, I’ll try to rely purely on melee combat methods later.”

In the third round of the solo competition, the contestants would rack their brains to achieve victory.

But Zhou Yi was thinking about how not to expose too much of his strength.

After all, there was a four-level difference between the two. If they were to fight at this distance of more than a hundred meters, before the opponent could get close, a bolt of light attribute lightning from Zhou Yi after a Light’s Punishment could probably defeat the opponent.

“For melee combat, this totem stone pillar of mine is a bit troublesome.”

Unlike the Army Breaker Battle Axe, the Dilapidated Holy Light Totem Pillar weapon that Zhou Yi was equipped with was extremely thick and very difficult to wield.

And it was extremely heavy, weighing a good seven or eight hundred catties!!

It was fine when he was acting as a support, but in a situation that required intense melee combat, this was undoubtedly a huge burden!

He remembered that this totem stone pillar seemed to have another form.

Zhou Yi subconsciously used the appraisal technique to carefully examine the totem stone pillar. Soon, he saw a line of description:

[Remark: When the Dilapidated Holy Light Totem Pillar is inserted into the ground, it can also provide the wielder with attribute enhancements within a 500-meter radius.]

“This is it!”

Zhou Yi’s eyes lit up. “As soon as the fight starts, I’ll just plant the totem stone pillar on the ground!!”

“This way, I can enjoy the feeling of fist-to-flesh combat after a long time.”

Zhou Yi felt that his idea was simply genius!

“Contestants, please get ready. The first match of the third round of the solo competition is about to begin.”

The energy protection shield rose as usual, and at the same time, the voice countdown also began to count down synchronously:

“3! 2! 1! Begin!!”

As soon as the countdown ended, a loud boom was heard from the left side of the arena.

Next to Zhou Yi, a huge dent had appeared on the originally flat ground, and that totem stone pillar, with a diameter of more than twenty centimeters and a height of nearly two meters, was inserted into it.

Ground cracks like a spider’s web spread out along the ground with the totem stone pillar as the center.

At the same time, waves of golden energy ripples also spread out in waves with the totem stone pillar as the center.

“????”

“Ah, this…”

Seeing this sudden scene, in the stadium, countless spectators were stunned…
