High Martial Arts: Grinding for the Supreme Talent

Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Suppressing Everyone

Chen Li watched Lin Qi’s points soar from 842 to 1042 in less than thirty seconds.

He knew exactly what this meant.

In other words, Lin Qi had killed two Level 3 Calamity Beasts in quick succession.

Lin Qi’s total score had now surpassed 1,000, leaving everyone else far behind.

He was already exhausted just from killing a single Gray Ridge Giant Wolf. There was no way he could catch up.

’I’m an S-class Talent! I’m an S-class Talent certified by the Chongming Martial Arts Dojo headquarters.’

’To think I’d be completely suppressed by Lin Qi... How did he do it?’

Crestfallen and dealt a massive blow, Chen Li began to wander aimlessly through Area 2.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

He didn’t know how long he’d been walking when the smart watch on his wrist began to beep.

This meant the practical training was officially over!

From this point on, hunting Calamity Beasts would no longer award any points.

Suddenly, the thick stench of blood wafted over from the distance.

Chen Li’s nose twitched as he looked up.

The yellow sand swirled. Not far away, a figure sat atop two massive corpses—they were Gray Ridge Giant Wolves. Two more identical bodies lay nearby, their blood pooling on the shattered concrete road.

The figure was dressed in a black combat suit, a blood-stained Black Great Spear resting on his shoulder. A dense, murderous aura emanated from him.

Chen Li couldn’t help but quicken his pace. As he drew closer, his eyes widened.

It was Lin Qi!

Lin Qi looked up, his expression cold and stern. His sharp gaze locked onto Chen Li as he said,

"Chen Li, you’ve disappointed me."

"Is this all you’ve got?"

"It looks like you’ve already given it your all."

"This practical training has decided the victor."

Nearby, Zhou Xiyin was completely numb.

Chen Li swallowed hard and asked, "You killed all of these?"

"How did you do it?"

Lin Qi tilted his head, feigning confusion. "Obviously. They’re just Level 3 Calamity Beasts, Gray Ridge Giant Wolves. Are they supposed to be strong?"

"You just kill them normally."

"The practical training is over. We should head back."

「A few minutes later」

Lin Qi returned to the supply point and put his black Gravity Rings, which had been on the ground, back on.

Behind him, Chen Li and Zhou Xiyin’s eyes bulged. They were once again stunned. Chen Li pointed at the Gravity Rings and asked,

"You’ve been fighting this whole time with Gravity Rings on?"

"How much does one weigh?"

Lin Qi chugged a large bottle of an energy drink, feeling his exhausted body slowly recover.

"Fifty-five pounds each!"

"So that’s two hundred and twenty pounds..." Chen Li fell silent.

The stamina drain from wearing two hundred and twenty pounds for several hours of continuous combat was unimaginable.

Zhou Xiyin was also thoroughly convinced. Any thought of competing had vanished. They weren’t even in the same league.

VROOOM!

A black shadow approached in the sky. It was a small, black aircraft, here to take them away from Ruins Town.

...

「Meanwhile, in Ruins Town.」

Countless people sat on the ground, exhausted. The Calamity Beasts throughout the town had been all but wiped out.

Tens of thousands of Calamity Beasts had been slain, and a thick, bloody stench filled the town.

In a ruined area, Wang Qiufeng leaned against a wall. He looked at his own score of over 600 on the Points Chart, then at Lin Qi’s score of over 1,000. A look of disbelief spread across his weary face.

’Lin Qi... How did he do it?’

’Looks like I’ve lost.’

...

Outside a supply point, a blood-soaked Guo Heng sat wearily on the concrete pavement. With a trembling hand, he pressed the red rescue button on his watch before pulling up the Points Chart.

BEEP!

A green projection of the Points Chart appeared before him.

When he saw Lin Qi in first place, a smile spread across his face. "That’s Lin Qi for you. I knew you were the strongest."

"After all, you’re the genius my sister vouched for."

But when he saw the score of over 1,000, his expression froze. "A thousand points?"

...

In another ruined area, Jiangtao leaned against a wall, too exhausted to even think about moving.

’It’s finally over!’

’So tired... I can’t even imagine the pressure Brother Qi was under, wearing those two-hundred-and-twenty-pound Gravity Rings.’

He pressed the red rescue button on his watch and pulled up the Points Chart.

’With my score, making the top ten shouldn’t be a problem.’

He looked up, saw Lin Qi in first place, and a knowing smile appeared on his face.

But when he saw the score of over 1,000, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"1,042 points?"

"That’s almost 500 more points than me!"

"Is Brother Qi even human?"

"What a monster..."

...

In the large conference room, a moment of silence was shattered by a sudden uproar.

"Incredible! He took on three Gray Ridge Giant Wolves by himself and actually won!"

"1,042 points! That’s insane!"

"I just looked up the all-time highest score for Cang Province’s Practical Training Camp. It was 642, set two years ago. Now, Wang Qiufeng, Chen Li, and Lin Qi have all broken it."

"And Lin Qi raised the record by a full 400 points! It’s going to be hard for anyone to break that record in the future," someone marveled.

"And don’t forget, he was wearing Gravity Rings for hours of continuous combat. Otherwise, his score would have been even higher," someone else added.

"This Lin Qi is absolutely a top-level Talent. His Qi and Blood Value, Spear Technique, Body Technique, Combat Talent, Psychological Quality—all his abilities are far beyond everyone else’s."

"He’s the most outstanding Talent in Cang Province this year. An absolute dark horse!" someone exclaimed.

"Recruit him to our Nether Sea Martial Academy, no matter the cost!" a striking middle-aged woman in a blue uniform commanded.

"Yes, ma’am!" her subordinate replied with a nod.

...

Nearby, the middle-aged team leader from Shanyu Martial Arts University also spoke with a grave expression. "We’ll talk to their school’s leader later. We must win over a Talent like Lin Qi."

"Understood!" his subordinate nodded seriously.

...

Yuan Ji, dressed in a dark green officer’s uniform, gripped the handles of his chair and stared at the cold, stern man on the screen.

An expression of awe appeared on his face.

’What a rare Talent. Top-level Combat Talent... He’s exactly the kind of prodigy the military needs.’

’The chances of recruiting him are low, but we have to try. What if we succeed?’

The officer beside him nodded. "I understand, sir. I’ll handle it."

...

In the Azure Sky Martial Arts Academy’s section, a pretty young woman with slightly chubby cheeks looked excitedly at the dean beside her.

"Dean, this Lin Qi is incredible!"

"We have to recruit him!"

"He has to come to Azure Sky Martial Arts Academy, and he has to come to our Sixth Institute!"

"We can’t let the other schools snatch him away. He belongs to us."

Dean Big Ear, sitting beside her, waved a hand dismissively and frowned. "Quiet down. I’m thinking!"

He watched Lin Qi on the screen, just as surprised internally.

’Little Wan, Wen Rui... they weren’t wrong. Lin Qi really is an S-class Talent.’

’He’s even more monstrous than they described.’

’His potential and talent are even greater than I imagined!’

’Fortunately, I came myself. The other institutes haven’t caught on yet. This is my chance.’

’The war for talent has begun. I need to think carefully about how to win him over.’

Dean Big Ear thought to himself, rubbing his earlobe.

...

「Ruins Town Base」

VROOOM!

In the plaza, many students were already sitting on the ground, resting. Most looked exhausted, and the reek of blood hung heavy on them.

Aircraft were continuously landing, dropping off more students.

A grim and weary atmosphere enveloped the crowd, but one group was still chatting animatedly.

"I thought Chen Li had first place locked down. 758 points, a new record."

"I never expected this Lin Qi to come out of nowhere with 1,042 points. How many Calamity Beasts did he even kill?" someone exclaimed.

VROOOM!

A small, all-black aircraft slowly descended, landing on the ground and kicking up a fierce gale.
