Chapter 273: Chapter 173: Already a Force to be Reckoned With, Who Can Stop It!_2
The slender wristwatch, as thin as a bracelet, was counting down.
...
...
At the temporary command base, Chen Ruofu had been stationed there for over a week.
His heart, once tense, was finally at ease, no longer worried about Qin Shi being obstructed by other competitors.
As for who can win the championship in the current top hundred competition, it’s still unclear. But if we have to say who provided the most deaths, it would be undoubtedly Qin.
Every time a competitor from Central City dies, Representative Zhou’s face gets darker.
These past few days, his face has turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Even Fang Butang, who was staying behind and watching the competition with Chen Ruofu, couldn’t help but say:
"That little Qin from your Inspection Department, isn’t he a bit too extreme?"
After all, if we think about it seriously, this is just a campus event ranging from high school to university.
And yet, the emergence of the strongest high schooler who kills at will has left the Education Commission leaders speechless.
"Ying’s family broke the rules first. Qin was acting in self-defense. He did nothing wrong!"
Chen Ruofu maintained a firm stance, expressing his support to the end.
"They, with more people, bullied fewer people, five or six, seven or eight against little Qin alone, and then lost their lives senselessly that it’s shameful to spread the news.
If this was the Martial Arts World of the Old Era, even the most overbearing schools would be embarrassed to seek revenge directly!"
Fang Butang, holding an enamel cup, said leisurely:
"Making enemies is inevitable, with little Qin acting like this. Why did Ying Lin specifically choose to exert influence in the top hundred competition, spreading money over a wide range? Because this trial gathered the top talents of Heng Province, not only for their learning aptitude and potential pathways, but also for their extraordinary family backgrounds.
Kill one, kill two, it sounds gratifying. But a series of troubles are unavoidable. Ying Lin’s character is obsessive and arrogant but not stupid. He’s using others to do his bidding!
Chen Ruofu looked at Fang Butang, who seemed always at ease and smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, and said:
"As expected, you old Fang, shrewd and crafty, understanding these ways."
Fang Butang glared angrily and scolded:
"Watch your words! Old Chen!"
Chen Ruofu smiled, changing his tone casually:
"I misspoke, it’s insightful. I’ve considered the things you’ve mentioned, but under the sky, there’s no perfect path to tread.
Old Fang, think about it, we both come from decent backgrounds, but to climb up over the years, haven’t we offended quite a few people? We’ve had to engage in both open rivalry and covert struggles to secure our positions.
Given our experiences, how could little Qin, starting from a lower point, calmly and steadily rise? Even without the Ying family, wouldn’t there be other obstacles?"
Fang Butang remained silent, as he, being a person in the career path, understood the difficulty in ascending.
Without favorable winds or support from influential figures, it indeed is fraught with numerous hardships, ending in futile effort.
"As for making enemies, Qin is no longer a loose person without a mentor. I’m quite eager to see who dares to stir trouble at Nanhuang Daoist School."
Chen Ruofu’s smile deepened, as Qin Shi, now a True Inheritor of Nanhuang Daoist School, was no longer the poor student from Old Factory Street without a backing.
"Old Fang, you’re too obsessed with social niceties. In the end, on the Martial Arts Path, it’s about fighting. When someone steps on you, how can you return a smile and let them continue to oppress you? When it’s time to draw your sword, you must draw your sword! I used to advise Qin to develop his connections well when he had no backing, but now that he’s made a name for himself, he doesn’t need to be so timid anymore!"
Chen Ruofu sat powerfully, showing a subtle hint of his domineering aura from his youth.
"You old tiger, you’ve truly forgotten your pain once healed. You used to charge ahead recklessly and suffered quite a bit."
Fang Butang snorted twice, looking at his wristwatch.
"First-round points calculation, guess where your Inspection Department will rank? I think it should be in the top ten."
Chen Ruofu raised his right palm, firmly gestured a sign, and said decisively: freēnovelkiss.com
"Top five!"
Fang Butang immediately sneered:
"The irregular creatures in the core area often score tens of thousands of points per head, no matter how you look at it, Zhou Yuanchen, Ji Yuqi, and Pei Han are unlikely to fall behind. Top ten is already an optimistic estimate."
The talents invested by Tai’an Education Commission are precisely Ji Yuqi and Pei Han.
These two, with strong backgrounds, are fourth-year students at Qiguang Heng University.
Upon graduation, they will directly enter the Education Commission system as solid key members.
"We’ll see."
Chen Ruofu was brimming with confidence, believing that Qin would give him a pleasant surprise.
The hands of the clock slowly moved towards noon.
At the stroke of twelve.
The first-round points calculation for the top hundred competition began!
...
...
The points calculation was executed by the active AI entity [Evergreen] of United Pharmaceutical.
Through wristwatch material recognition and clearance speed, comprehensive scores were assessed.
Under the Iron Curtain defense of the Urban Circle, United Pharmaceutical’s active AI entity was operating, absorbing massive amounts of data like intelligent life forms, categorizing, and thoroughly organizing them.
"Are the results out yet?"
The regional general manager of United Pharmaceutical anxiously awaited, as the publicity for the top hundred competition was enormous, and the revival of the wilderness trial was full of hype.
Everyone was anticipating the announcement of the first-round results!
Besides the Inspection Department and Education Commission, the leaders of the Martial Arts Association and the chief editor and reporters from Tomorrow Group also sought firsthand information.
"Almost. The electronic blockage over at the Great Rift Valley is quite severe, so it’s slower than usual."
An assistant lowered their head and replied.
The AI entities of large companies hold positions equivalent to chief executive officers.
The more domains they span and the more market-leading positions they occupy, the more they trust the judgment of AI entities.
Almost all employees serve the AI entities.
Those powerful AI entities possess extraordinary powers akin to deities.
