Chapter 84: The Talent of the Bahuang Family

“The 2024 College Entrance Examination of Qingcheng City is about to begin. Everyone, please try your best to control your emotions and not give the contestants too much outside interference…”

On the crowded field of 60,000 people, a host stood in the middle of the ring. Holding a microphone, he spoke endlessly. “I am the host of this year’s College Entrance Examination official competition. Everyone can call me Ah Yong. Before the contestants take the stage, let me introduce the examinees. Number 01, Wang Baoqiang, from the No. 1 Senior High School in Qingcheng. He’s also the top scholar in liberal arts in this year’s College Entrance Exam…”

It was different from yesterday’s competition venue.

The main competition on July 8th had a host to explain.

This could bring a better viewing experience for the live audience.

The College Entrance Examination every year was not only a political issue, but also a wealth that attracted a lot of money.

Whether it was the entrance fee, the broadcast fee, the advertising fee, or even the subscription fee for the live broadcast, they were all important financial revenues for the local authorities.

It could not be overemphasized.

Paired with an excellent host, it was only a small part of the cost.

“Number 20, Bahuang Yao, from the No. 1 High School in Qingcheng City. She is also the last of the 20 seeded contestants.” The host, Ah Yong, continued his introduction. “After hearing Bahuang’s surname, everyone will definitely guess that she is from the Bahuang family. Moreover, she is Bahuang Yi’s younger sister, his biological younger sister!”

“Wu wu–”

Waves of exclamations immediately sounded in the stadium.

Four years ago, during the College Entrance Examination, Bahuang Yi had left a deep impression on almost all the citizens of Qingcheng City.

Who would have thought that the genius warrior actually had a younger sister?

“Next, we can look forward to seeing how much strength Bahuang Yi’s younger sister can display…”

Behind the main entrance of the hall.

Hearing the host’s introduction, Bahuang Yao lowered her head and secretly bit her lips.

…

“Number 21, Chen Yu, from Qingcheng City’s No. 7 High School. He is also the first contestant from No. 7 High School to enter the official competition in the past 20 years.”

Outside the arena, the principal of No. 7 High School heard this and was so angry that he gritted his teeth. “This B…”

“Yesterday’s group arena, Student Chen Yu’s performance was definitely beyond our expectations. Then, I have also received his basic information here, hmm…”

After a moment of silence, host Ah Yong read out the draft. “His strength level is around 0.75, not very strong. He should be considered the weakest among all the examinees of this year. However, his physique is very strong. According to the College Entrance Examination Group’s test, just by relying on his body and without using his strength, he can fight a 50-50 chance against a normal Level 1.4 martial artist.”

“Holy shit!”

“Awesome, awesome.”

“This is what true talent is like…”

“Terrifying.”

“Pah!”

“…”

The audience was discussing non-stop.

And behind the door of the hall, the examinees were also looking at Chen Yu.

“Just based on his body… Level 1.4…” Ma Li sighed heavily. “My Tsinghua dream…”

Time slowly passed as the host babbled on and on.

When the clock struck 8:30, he finished introducing the last examinee. The rhythm was quite accurate.

“Next, please welcome the 32 examinees with the warmest, most surging, and most exciting cheers and applause!”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several fireworks soared into the sky, and the main entrance of the stadium building immediately opened.

The bald Chief Examiner was the first to walk out.

Behind him, all the examinees followed.

Dong! Dong! Dong…

The fireworks exploded.

The audience’s hearing and vision were greatly stimulated.

The auditory stimulation came from the exploding cannon salute.

The visual stimulation came from the Chief Examiner’s bald head…

It was unexpectedly bright…

“Everyone, disperse. Return to your respective waiting areas and wait for the start of the competition.”

The examinees dispersed after the Chief Examiner gave the order.

Chen Yu walked to the waiting area of No. 7 High School and discovered that the principal of No. 7 High School was already waiting there.

“Quick, sit here,” the principal called out loudly.

Nodding, Chen Yu sat on the chair and asked, “Where did you go last night? I didn’t see you.”

“I was detained by the examiners.” The principal spread out his hands. “They said that they were afraid that we would leak the battle list in advance.”

“Oh.”

“Did you get the battle list?”

“I got it.” Chen Yu handed over the battle list. “For the first match, I have to fight Ma Li.”

“I know.” He took the battle list, the principal of No. 7 High School said seriously, “Last night, I analyzed the whole night and roughly deduced the players that you might meet. Number 13, Ma Li, is not your opponent. Don’t worry about that. Your main opponent is Wang Baoqiang.”

“Yeah. His strength is pretty good. Level 1.5. I can’t defeat him with just my constitution.”

“Yes. As long as you defeat him, you will be the top scorer. No one can threaten you among the 16 candidates in the even-numbered group.”

“Yeah.” Chen Yu answered perfunctorily and closed his eyes to rest.

After a long while, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Principal, do you know Bahuang Yi?”

“I do. The top scorer of the 20th College Entrance Examination. He is now the president of the Student Union of Beijing University. He came back a few days ago.”

“How is his strength?”

“Are you asking about his strength during the College Entrance Examination?”

“Yes.”

“Well…” The principal of No. 7 High School thought for a moment. “He is half as strong as you.”

“Is he that awesome…”

“Yes. He is publicly recognized as the top scorer of the 20th National College Entrance Examination. He can be considered the representative of the current Bahuang family.”

“Is the Bahuang family very powerful?” Chen Yu asked again.

“Why are you asking them?”

“I’m just curious.”

“The Bahuang family doesn’t have much power. It’s just that their family’s talent… Well, it’s a little special.”

“How special?”

“It’s just…” The headmaster of No. 7 High School tried his best to phrase it. “Well… their family’s people have all died horribly.”

Chen Yu: “…Is this even considered special?”

“Of course. It’s not easy for an average person to die a horrible death…”

As the two of them conversed, the first match of the College Entrance Examination’s official competition began.

No. 1 High School’s Wang Baoqiang versus No. 4 High School’s * * *.

The cheers of the audience instantly surged like a tidal wave.

However, the process of the competition was far from the momentum of the audience.

In a short span of ten seconds, Wang Baoqiang defeated his opponent cleanly.

Level 1.5 versus Level 0.9.

The difference of 0.6 levels was as great as the difference between an adult and a child.

Wang Baoqiang did not even have time to move his limbs before his opponent could not hold on any longer.

“Winner! Wang Baoqiang!”

Kacha!

Kacha! Kacha!

The flashes in the stadium were connected.

Wang Baoqiang waved to the audience with a smile on his face, then looked at Chen Yu.

The fighting spirit in his eyes was quite strong.

In this year’s College Entrance Exam, the only opponent was Chen Yu…

…

The matches went on one after another.

Chen Yu lay on his chair and rested.

The principal of No. 7 High School watched the situation on the field nervously.

As a ‘coach,’ he had to pay attention to the situation of the contestants.

Who won, who lost.

Who was injured, whose weakness was exposed, and so on.

Based on this information, he analyzed the choices that were beneficial to Chen Yu.

It had been a hundred years since No. 7 High School had managed to get a contestant in, so they had to use it well…

More than twenty minutes later.

“The first round of the official competition, the seventh match! Match Number 08, Zhao Mucha against Number 20… Bahuang Yao!” the host shouted.

Hearing the words ‘Bahuang Yao’, Chen Yu opened his eyes subconsciously and looked at the arena.

“It’s here.”
