Did we win?
Thousands of spectators did not celebrate with excitement like Qin Fen’s previous battles. Instead, they stared at Qin Fen, who was walking out of the arena. Even up until the very end, this East Asian recruit did not even increase his ability to anything higher than two-star!
A two-star defeated a four-star? The audience looked at one another, baffled. How was this possible?
The thousands of audiences present were so quiet it was as if there was no one around. Even the medical staff responsible for treating the wounded stood on the sidelines blankly, forgetting their own work.

Was it needed to go as far as being surprised?
Zeus leaned against the back of the seat and pushed the wide sunglasses up on the bridge of his nose,
It’s obviously a martial artist with only a four-star aura. He doesn’t have the right control of power of a four-star martial artist. A stupid pig who only pursues strength but does not control their power, no wonder he lost.



Yang Lie silently nodded. Qin Fen’s power control was astounding. But the comprehensive strength of the West Asia recruit was terrible, he had reached four-star purely by strength, yet he failed to assert control over his power and broke down. Otherwise, Qin Fen’s twenty-four style simplified Tai Chi fist would have long been nullified.
Using soft energy to conquer the hard? 
The corner of Yang Lie’s mouth was lifted, revealing a faint smile. There was no difference between hard and soft strengths, it all depended on the person in the end.

Qin Fen…
Yang Lie rubbed his chin with one hand and said indifferently,
I am looking forward to meeting you as an opponent in the semifinal.


Little Dragon King…
Zeus was moving his shoulders that were thicker than walls,
You will probably be disappointed. We are all in the upper half zone. Let’s take a look, from number one to number sixteen will be under zone A, number seventeen to number thirty-two will be under zone B, number thirty-three to number forty-eighth will be under zone C, and the rest will be under zone D. Qin Fen and I will be in zone B. Therefore, your opponent in the semifinal can only possibly be me.


Really?
Yang Lie seemingly smiled while he looked at the arena,
Did you not look at the competition scoreboard seriously? Before you meet Qin Fen, you have to go against another recruit from East Asia, Du Peng. We are not familiar with the name. But the information seems to show a name called Du Zhanpeng. Had you forgotten about it?


Du Zhanpeng?
Zeus looked at the screen of the competition queue,
East Asia recruit king, Du Zhanpeng? Does he has a younger brother?

Qin Fen walked out of the field and disappeared completely from the projection screen. Only then everyone responded.
Thunderous applauses coupled with excited praises were like tides as each wave echoed through the stadium.
The medical staff watched the West Asia recruit struggle a few times but fail to get up from the ground. Only then did they snap back from their stupefied state. They rushed in quickly with a stretcher.

Old Qin…
Xue Tian raised his both thumbs,
You are really awesome.



Qin Fen scratched his forehead with his finger. He only wanted to take this opportunity to feel his hard strength and did not expect to cause such a big sensation.

But…
Xue Tian said after Qin Fen had sat down,
With what you did, how could I possibly be awesome? I think before going up, I have to think about how I can gain more attention


Hey! East Asia’s recruits are getting more and more amazing!


Yeah! With Kyokushin Genichi’s tragic exit, I thought that East Asia recruit’s vigor would be stopped.


Unexpected, really unexpected. Under the suppressed state of two-star, the East Asian recruit closed his eyes that would be needed to observe the battle, yet he still defeated the four-star West Asian recruit. Oh… wait a minute, there is news…

Thousands of fanatical audiences were once again attracted by the dialogues of the three commentators. The audience suddenly became quiet, waiting for the news from the commentator.

Oh my God!


Oh my God! It turned out to be a Berserker Pill?


Audience, I hereby announce that the defeated West Asia recruit took a Berserker Pill which is against the rules…

The quiet auditorium was once again in a state of uproar. The fact that a two-star won a four-star was already shocking enough, who would have expected it was a win against the four-star martial artist who took the Berserker Pill!



Hey…
Xue Tian also mimicked the commentator’s dragged tone, he raised his hand to cover his pitiful face,
Old Qin, did you plan to take all my limelight! Even if I have a more handsome face than you, it will be difficult for me to attract the beautiful female audiences.

Qin Fen forced a bitter smile and secretly prayed for Xue Tian. He prayed that the opponent would surrender to Xue Tian’s endless offensive talking before he and his opponent even begin fighting.
The audience were still immersed in the excitement created by Qin Fen. Two people appeared in the center of the field. A recruit from the Americas confronted the
Golden Lion
Pat from Africa.
The height of Pat was two hundred and ten centimeters. His figure was the tallest among the martial artists! With his solid black and shining muscles, he showed no sign of clumsiness due to his height. He had a head of golden hair and looked just like a lion that stood tall.
The bell suddenly rang yet no one noticed it.
People were still immersed in the idea of Qin Fen defeating a four-star in the state of two-star. Suddenly, there was a strong pressure in the huge stadium.

God…

The commentator’s surprised screams had not stopped. The American recruit had simply raised both his hands and admitted defeat when he faced the Golden Lion Pat.

Seven-star…

Another commentator’s dumbfoundedness was like a murmur from a nightmare.


Military enthusiasts who spectated several Recruit Tournaments had rushed to cause an uproar before all the audience.
Seven stars, the peak of the meteor level expert! In the previous Recruit Tournaments, anyone who exhibited the seven-star meteor level peak strength won the championship of the recruit martial battle.
It was only the top sixty-four of the top thirty-two competition.
Golden Lion
Pat from Africa had shown the strength of the previous champions! No wonder it was rumored that the African Military Region declared to surpass East Asia, defeat Europe and to shake the slogan of America.
Seven-star, the peak of the meteor level expert! It was two different concepts with four-star martial artists. Seven-star was the peak of the meteor level expert. People who reach this level at a young age were far more powerful than four-star martial artists.
It was only with the strength of the seven-star martial artists which could make a five-star martial artist of the meteor level lose their will to battle and immediately admit defeat.
Win by default! Even if it was for just a moment,
Golden Lion
Pat used his strength to let the audience remember his name and at the same time completely overwhelmed the light of Qin Fen’s two-star that defeated a four-star fight.
Compared to a two-star that won a four-star, the legendary seven-star strength that had won the championship was even more sought after.

Oh God! If I remember correctly, the previous champion of the recruits martial battle are all seven-star?


Yes, yes! And almost every season will have a seven-star recruit.


Flashing the ace first!? Will the African Military Region take the championship title this time?



Thousands of viewers who didn’t know about the history of the recruit contest heard the three commentators’ conversations and suddenly they burst into an uproar.

The expression of such strength. Little Dragon King Yang Lie, I wonder if you feel heavy pressure?


This first day of competition is far more popular than any of the previous seasons. Firstly, it is Little Dragon King Yang Lie defeating Kyokushin Genichi with one hit, followed by East Asia’s recruit Qin Fen displaying a performance of a two-star with closed eyes to defeat a four-star martial artist. And now, African recruits are also showing their strength. The display of strength alone is able to make the American recruit to retreat in an instant without lifting a finger. I wonder, will there be anything more exciting?


Oh! The next person apparently is Caesar from Europe! Great Emperor Caesar!

The exclamation of the commentator’s excitement continued. The screams of the ladies among the audience came in with a few waves.

This Caesar…
Xue Tian snorted,
Most women today came just to see him?

Qin Fen raised his eyebrows and looked at Xue Tian,
Do you know him?

Xing Wuyi smiled at the side,
Maybe only you among us only know Caesar through the information. We know about him more than you.


Can you talk about it?

Qin Fen looked at Caesar who had walked to the middle of the venue. That sturdy yet not bulky figure showed everyone what was called the golden proportion of a figure.
Caesar stood quietly, his hands in the pockets of his trousers. The sun shone on him and reflected a hint of dominance. This dominance from his body was different compared to the scary demon king, Golden Lion. Their senses of oppression were different, and there was a hint of the taste of a ruler from him!

Great Emperor
Caesar! Those who did not understand his title began to understand why he had such a title. By just standing there, without exerting any real energy and martial strength, already revealed a faint taste of a ruler. To be called the
Great Emperor
was fitting.

In Europe, there are three geniuses.
Xing Wuyi smiled and shook his head, sighed,
Maybe the population has grown and technology has advanced. Geniuses are not as hard to spot as before and are more likely to be seen…

Qin Fen nodded. In the era of undeveloped information technology, even if there was a genius in a certain place, due to environmental factors, they wouldn’t be spotted. In today’s society, it was harder to overlook these people no matter how hard society wanted to.

‘Devil’ Solomon, ‘Great Emperor’ Caesar…
Xing Wuyi gently touched his chin,
There is also the most low-key among the three, the most eccentric, ‘Thunder’ Enzo Rota.


Enzo Rota?


Yes, Enzo Rota.
Xing Wuyi’s eyes shrank like a needle,
It is rumored that not only does he have a lot of potential as a martial artist, he’s also a pharmaceutical genius. These three people have all been famous since their teenage years. They were not famous up till they joined the army. In fact, Caesar and Yang Lie are the same. They entered the army in the eyes of the public. Therefore, it is not surprising that they have fanatical supporters when they appear on the stage.


Yang Lie?
Qin Fen looked up at the seat of the American Military Region.
Just now…


This was the top sixty-four to the top thirty-two, so today’s audiences are few.
Xing Wuyi pushed the gold-rimmed spectacles up the bridge of his nose,
When the top thirty-two starts, you will notice that Yang Lie’s female supporters are not any less than Caesar’s.


Stop talking.
Xue Tian pointed his finger at the center of the field,
Look, something happened…
