The same thing happened in many corners of the Martial Arts Branch.
In fact, not many students had learned the ten F-rank martial techniques that Chu Nan had involved earlier. After all, they were only the lowest-level F-rank martial techniques, so it was very difficult for geniuses like them who could enter Star Cloud Academy to take a fancy to them.
However, at this moment, it was no longer a problem to not have learned it before. In order to verify it, many students directly exchanged for one or even a few corresponding martial techniques from the database and began to cultivate according to the analysis report given by Chu Nan.
As soon as they cultivated, they immediately discovered the truth.
After all, an F-rank martial technique was only an F-rank martial technique. If they followed the information on these ten martial techniques provided in the martial technique database, they could easily master and cultivate them. However, the power of these martial techniques was very weak, and they were not much different from trash to them.
However, if he modified these improvements according to the analysis report given by Chu Nan, he would discover that this martial technique had immediately become much stronger. If it was matched with the corresponding Internal Breath circulation cultivation method given by Chu Nan, it could even increase these martial techniques by more than one level!
Most of the students were the same as the Martial Arts Branch and suspected that Chu Nan was definitely cheating. It was impossible for him to have the heaven-defying ability to study a hundred and four martial techniques deeply in a month. But now that they had personally seen Chu Nan’s actions and experienced the research results he had given, no one doubted him anymore.
This Chu Nan was such a genius! He was so heaven-defying!
At the same time, the atmosphere at the ultimate arbitration venue was far less enthusiastic than the atmosphere among the students. It even seemed very strange.
When Chu Nan’s ten reports were announced, as long as one was not blind, they could tell how valuable the ten analysis reports were.
If even this could not reach the evaluation standard of the Martial Arts Branch’s martial arts database, then this standard was too high.
Everyone looked at the evaluation committee members with very strange gazes.
The current situation was already very obvious. These evaluation committee members must have been completely biased towards the Martial Arts Branch, which was why they ignored such outstanding analysis reports and forcefully expressed that they did not meet the evaluation standards.
The goal of this was none other than to determine the fact that Chu Nan had cheated and let the Martial Arts Branch win this ultimate arbitration.
However, Chu Nan’s shocking ability was already shown in front of everyone, so how could they say that he was cheating?
In the seat of the arbitration committee, a middle-aged man with slight balding stood up. He first glanced at the stunned evaluators before looking at the seat of the Martial Arts Branch opposite him.
“Dean Semondi, although I’m not that good at martial techniques, I’ve cultivated for a period of time since I was young. Now, I can more or less be considered a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. I still have a certain understanding of these relatively low-level martial techniques.”
He pointed at the reports submitted by Chu Nan on the virtual screen.
“In my opinion, Chu Nan has already reached a rather deep understanding of these ten F-rank martial techniques. Moreover, according to the modified opinions he gave, he even gave a perfect Internal Breath circulation cultivation method. It can be said that these ten martial techniques have already increased by at least a level. If this can’t meet the evaluation standards of your Martial Arts Branch, I want to ask how high the standards you set are?”
After asking, he turned to the evaluation committee members and narrowed his eyes.
“Or could it be that… these council members have long received your instructions? No matter what answer Chu Nan gives, they will announce that he didn’t meet the standards?”
A commotion immediately sounded.
Although most of the others thought so, this committee member directly said it in public.
Dean Semondi’s expression darkened.
He could control the few members of the arbitration committee who were mainly responsible for evaluation, but it was impossible for him to control the entire arbitration committee.
The council member who spoke now was a deputy dean of the Star Cloud Academy’s Astrophysics Branch. He had an old grudge against him in the past, and now, he seized the opportunity to criticize him.
“That’s right. The standard set by our Martial Arts Branch is that high.” Dean Semondi thought for a moment and said arrogantly, “Although the analysis reports given by Chu Nan are not bad, they indeed don’t reach the standard. These council members in charge of evaluation are not wrong.”
The evaluation committee members who had been nervous ever since they knew that Chu Nan had announced the results immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
No matter what, it was good that Dean Semondi was willing to protect them.
Of course, Dean Semondi had to do this.
If he admitted that their evaluation was wrong at this moment, it would be a loss. How could he accept this result?
“Is that so?” The slightly bald deputy dean of the Astrophysics Branch sneered, “I remember that the policy of your Martial Arts Branch’s reform is to encourage students to study martial techniques more deeply. However, the standard is so high that even a high-level analysis report like Chu Nan can’t meet it. Is there really any meaning to this policy?”
Dean Semondi’s expression did not change.
“This is the standard set by our Martial Arts Branch after many considerations. I don’t think there’s any problem.”
Dean Semondi refused to budge. There was nothing the others could do. The deputy dean sneered and sat back down.
“I have a question.” At this moment, Chu Nan suddenly spoke, “Dean Semondi, Director Sun, I remember that… the martial arts database did not pass my points exchange application for the 104 martial techniques four days ago, right?”
Dean Semondi did not have a good expression towards Chu Nan. His face sank and he sneered, “Of course, you’re suspected of cheating. How can I let you pass the application?”
“In other words, you suspect that I cheated because you feel that I don’t have the ability to study a large number of low-level martial techniques in a short period of time, not because the results of my research have reached the standard, right?”
“This…”
Dean Semondi’s eyes moved as he reacted.
This was a trap set by Chu Nan.
If the Martial Arts Branch had previously admitted that Chu Nan’s research results had reached the reward standard and suspected that he had cheated, then the same research results Chu Nan had given would naturally cause everyone to be suspicious.
If he followed Chu Nan’s words and explained that his previous application for the 104 martial techniques did not meet the standard, it could allow him to confidently say that the current ten martial techniques did not meet the standard and protect those evaluation committee members.
However, this also indirectly proved that Chu Nan indeed had the ability to study a hundred and four martial techniques deeply in less than a month, causing the Martial Arts Branch’s previous doubts and accusations against him to collapse.
As for this ultimate arbitration, the Martial Arts Branch was the obvious loser.
Dean Semondi was in a dilemma.
He had just voiced his support for those evaluation committee members and it was impossible for him to slap his own face in the blink of an eye. However, it was impossible for him to admit that Chu Nan had such an ability and obtain the victory of this arbitration.
In the end, it was still the ten martial technique-related analysis reports that Chu Nan had given that displayed overly powerful talent and ability that could not be ignored.
Just as he was feeling conflicted, Sun Xiangren stood up again and said in a low voice, “There’s still a huge difference between 10 and 104. Just because you can study ten martial techniques deeply doesn’t mean that you can study 104 martial techniques deeply, so this can’t prove anything. Moreover, perhaps the people behind you have already prepared a perfect plan for you. Otherwise, how could you give such a detailed report in such a short period of time?”
“Shameless!”
Hearing Sun Xiangren’s words, regardless of whether it was many people at the ultimate arbitration venue or the students watching this live broadcast, they cursed in their hearts. Many students even cursed.
The reality was right in front of him, but Sun Xiangren actually dared to distort the truth.
In order to protect themselves, the Martial Arts Branch was really shameless!
The ten martial techniques that he had chosen earlier were drawn from the martial arts database. How could Chu Nan be prepared?
“Oh?” Chu Nan did not look angry. Instead, his smile became even more brilliant, “Director Sun, you think I’ve prepared in advance? Alright, just take out a random martial technique and I can still give a complete in-depth analysis report in half an hour. Do you dare?”
“I…”
“Enough!” Sun Xiangren was about to speak when a soft rebuke suddenly sounded from the rostrum.
Everyone turned around and saw that Dean Lin Mingdao’s calm face was clearly filled with anger.
He pointed at Dean Semondi and Sun Xiangren, and his tone was cold.
“The reputation of the Martial Arts Branch, and even the entire Star Cloud Academy, is going to be lost by you! It’s simply a farce!”
After saying this, Lin Mingdao left with a livid expression.
Seeing Lin Mingdao disappear from the meeting venue, Dean Semondi and Sun Xiangren’s faces immediately turned ashen.
