“Very good.” Director Levo nodded and looked at the seats of the Martial Arts Branch, “What do you think?”
Dean Semondi frowned slightly and looked at the confident smile on Chu Nan’s face. He had an ominous feeling.
However, logic told him that it was impossible for Chu Nan to do this.
After all, he was only an ordinary student. How could he have such an ability?
Moreover, even if he was a powerful martial artist who had been famous for a long time, it should not be possible for him to do this.
After all, every martial artist was skilled in different martial techniques. Their understanding of different types of martial techniques would definitely be biased. How could it be so simple to study them completely?
Although he still wanted to object, it was naturally impossible for him to raise any objections to Chu Nan’s reasonable request in public. He could only nod lightly.
Dean Sun Xiangren did not object, but Sun Xiangren stood up.
“I object.” Sun Xiangren stared at Chu Nan with a serious expression, “The reason why we punished him like this is because we suspect that he cheated. It might even cause the martial technique information in the database to be leaked. If we still let him come into contact with the martial technique in the database, won’t we face the danger of the martial technique information being leaked?”
Everyone was stunned.
Wasn’t this Sun Xiangren too ruthless?
He clearly only suspected that Chu Nan had cheated, so why did it sound like he had already become a thief who stole martial technique information?
Moreover, Chu Nan planned to use this method to prove his innocence, but Sun Xiangren blocked his method. Wasn’t that not even giving him a chance to prove himself?
Director Levo frowned slightly and was about to speak when Chu Nan spoke first.
“We can make a bet.” Chu Nan looked at Sun Xiangren with a trace of mockery and disdain, “If I can’t do it, I’ll directly admit defeat in this ultimate arbitration. Then, I’ll accept the sanctions of the Martial Arts Branch on the spot and cripple all my martial arts cultivation. If I can do it, the Martial Arts Branch will apologize to me for the slander. How about it?”
The people who were paying attention to this ultimate arbitration were already surprised for the umpteenth time.
What did Chu Nan say? If he could not prove himself, he would cripple all his martial techniques?
What the heck! Was he joking?!
This kind of thing was so difficult to prove, not to mention that it was the arbitration committee who wanted to prove this. The committee members in charge of martial arts evaluation were originally sent by the Martial Arts Branch. They would definitely be biased towards the Martial Arts Branch, so how could they easily let him pass?
He was simply courting death by doing this!
…
“Sister Angie Prairie, Brother Chu Nan… he… he’ll be fine, right?” Elvy held Angie Prairie’s hand tightly, her palm filled with sweat from nervousness.
Angie Prairie stared at Chu Nan on the virtual screen and smiled.
“Don’t worry, he can definitely do it.”
Elvy could not help but move her gaze away from the virtual screen and land on Angie Prairie’s face. When she saw that her expression was still calm and her gaze towards Chu Nan was filled with trust, her heart could not help but stir.
Why did she trust Brother Chu Nan so much?
Could it be that something had really happened between the two of them?
…
Elvy’s thoughts did not affect the atmosphere of the arbitration venue. After hearing Chu Nan’s words, many people were shocked. Even Dean Semondi and Sun Xiangren’s expressions changed slightly.
After the two of them looked at each other, Dean Semondi shook his head slightly. Sun Xiangren recalled and immediately shouted, “No. The martial arts database is the most important part of the Martial Arts Branch. We can’t let it be exposed at all, so I can’t accept your bet.”
Seeing that Sun Xiangren still did not give them a chance, not only were almost all the students watching the live broadcast dissatisfied, but even many people at the arbitration venue frowned.
Did the Martial Arts Branch plan to seal off all of Chu Nan’s paths and firmly not give him any chance?
However, Sun Xiangren put on such a righteous reason for the safety of the Martial Arts Branch that no one could refute.
Director Levo had a headache.
From the perspective of the academy, of course, the Martial Arts Branch would win this ultimate arbitration, but the performance of the Martial Arts Branch was too unconvincing. They did not even give Chu Nan a chance to explain. If they determined that the Martial Arts Branch would win the arbitration like this, not to mention that the students of the academy would not be convinced, if word got out, the entire Star Cloud Academy would be greatly embarrassed.
However, it was impossible for him to take the initiative to help Chu Nan because this would only damage the reputation of the academy even more.
Just as he was in a dilemma and thinking about how to resolve this situation, a voice suddenly floated down from the rostrum.
“We have to give him a chance to prove himself. If we don’t even dare to do this, if word gets out, our Star Cloud Academy will probably be scolded as petty.”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice in shock and saw Dean Lin Mingdao sitting in the middle of the rostrum and looking at Chu Nan with a smile.
“Since Chu Nan is confident in proving himself in front of so many of us, can’t the Martial Arts Branch dare to face him head-on?”
This sentence was directly said to the seats of the Martial Arts Branch.
Dean Semondi and Sun Xiangren’s expressions immediately changed.
It was already beyond their expectations that Lin Mingdao would personally participate in this ultimate arbitration. They did not expect him to directly support Chu Nan at the critical moment.
What was his intention in saying this?
Could it be that he was actually dissatisfied with the Martial Arts Branch?
When he recalled that after Chu Nan proposed the ultimate arbitration, the higher-ups of the academy had only used three days to prepare the arbitration committee with abnormally high efficiency, a strong sense of unease arose in Dean Semondi’s heart.
This time, it might be the greatest test for the Martial Arts Branch.
Facing Dean Lin Mingdao’s gaze, Sun Xiangren could not say anything to object.
He paused for a moment and nodded, “Since the dean has said so, give Chu Nan a chance. Chu Nan, I’ll randomly draw an F-rank martial technique from the martial arts database in a while and hand it to you to study deeply. If you can’t make an opinion that matches the standard of the points reward in half an hour, it’ll prove that you don’t have the ability to modify 104 martial techniques in a month. We’ll directly determine that you’re indeed cheating. Do you agree?”
“No problem.” Chu Nan agreed readily.
“Very good.”
Sun Xiangren glanced at Montevic, who quickly connected the martial arts database to the terminal at the scene.
The virtual screen immediately displayed the name list of the F-rank martial technique in the martial arts database.
After so many years of collection and organizing, there were already a total of 27,197 different F-rank martial techniques in the martial arts information of the Martial Arts Branch. Just the large categories alone were as many as six types, and the small categories were 32 types. Just looking at a rough list was enough to dazzle people.
Sun Xiangren glanced at Chu Nan and said to Director Levo, “In order to be fair, please choose this martial technique at random.”
“Alright.” Director Levo did not give up. He connected his personal terminal and gently tapped it. Countless martial technique names immediately rolled quickly on the virtual screen.
After a while, he tapped again. The name rolling on the screen slowly slowed down and finally froze on one of the martial techniques.
Everyone’s gazes swept over.
F-rank martial technique, Odin Divine Fist.
