Chapter 98 - The Possibility of Winning
Feeling that his face was being lightly slapped, Chu Nan woke up in a daze.
When he opened his eyes, he was not surprised to see Dong Fang’s chubby face. “Ah… What’s wrong? It’s already morning?” “In the morning?” Dong Fang’s small eyes suddenly jumped, “It’s almost noon! If you still don’t get up, are you planning to forfeit the semi-finals?”
“Semi-finals? Semi-finals…” Chu Nan muttered in a daze. His body suddenly shivered and he woke up. He stood up and jumped out of the bed,” Damn, what time is it now? The semi-finals haven’t started, right?”.
Seeing that Chu Nan had instantly recovered, Dong Fang smiled.
“Alright, I’m just scaring you. It’s only 8 AM now. However, if you don’t prepare yourself, you might really miss the semi-finals.”
After saying that, Dong Fang glanced at Chu Nan with a strange expression. “I say… It’s not a problem for the teachers of the academy to call you for special training yesterday, but is it really good to injure your entire body? With your current state, can you really get to the semi-finals?” “Oh? My entire body is covered in injuries?”
Chu Nan lowered his head in confusion and immediately discovered that his entire body was covered in blood and he looked extremely miserable.
Only then did he remember that he had not cared about anything after returning last night and had fallen asleep immediately. He had brought back all his blood after the risky experiment.
His nose twitched and he immediately smelled the thick stench of blood mixed with sweat. Chu Nan shook his head and darted into the bathroom of the dormitory.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The milky white liquid mixed with shower gel, as well as blood and sweat stains rolled down Chu Nan’s body, causing him to instantly feel much more refreshed. Even every pore on his body seemed to be desperately opening up as he breathed in the surrounding fresh air. Chu Nan felt the pleasure of the water flowing through his body as he circulated his Internal Breath and felt the different feeling of his Internal Breath circulating in his meridians.
Due to his exhaustion last night, he did not feel much.
After a good sleep, his mind had completely recovered. Chu Nan inspected himself again and discovered that the bold experiment that he had risked his life last night had brought him far more benefits than he had imagined.
Last night, he only had time to experience the increase in the strength of his body-in other words, the Overlord Body. However, after letting his Internal Breath circulate in his meridians again today, he discovered that the circulation of his Internal Breath was clearly much smoother, so the speed of its circulation was much faster.
This meant that the speed at which he mobilized his Internal Breath would increase.
Bang!
With a punch, the water flow suddenly exploded. Water droplets smashed into the wall around the bathroom, making cracking sounds.
Chu Nan nodded in satisfaction.
Through this punch, he confirmed that as the speed of his Internal Breath circulation increased, the time needed to complete the Second Revolution Internal Breath was much shorter than before.
Before this, when he mobilized the Second Revolution Internal Breath, the time needed to use it on his fist was approximately 1.161986 to 1.361906 seconds.
Now that his meridians had been strengthened, the time needed to mobilize his Second Revolution Internal Breath in this punch was 0.963911 seconds.
Although it was only a mere 0.2-0.4 seconds, the battle between martial artists was intense. Even if it was only 0.2 seconds, it was already a very important increase.
Specifically, because it took more than a second for Chu Nan to use his Second Revolution Internal Breath, it was clearly impossible for him to have so much time to easily adjust his breathing in an intense battle. Therefore, every time he used it, he had to calculate the subsequent battle process in advance and accurately calculate every move and stance of the enemy before he could coincidentally coordinate with his Second Revolution Internal Breath to launch counterattacks everywhere.
However, now that he had shortened the time to less than a second, it meant that the time he needed to calculate had obviously decreased. The decrease in computational requirement also gave him more time to calmly arrange and to react in time when he encountered an accident.
Bang!
Chu Nan threw another punch and the water exploded again.
Water droplets smashed into the wall again, the slapping sounds much louder than before.
In this punch just now, he had advanced his Internal Breath to the third cycle. The strength of the Internal Breath attached to his fist had increased by 27.31% compared to the second cycle. The strength of his fist had actually reached an astonishing 1481.76 kilograms!
The large increase in his Internal Breath as well as the small increase in the strength of his body caused Chu Nan’s fist strength to increase greatly.
This force not only far surpassed Luo Li, a fifth-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist, but it was even enough to fight head-on with the second-stage Internal Breath Martial Artists who Chu Nan had encountered in the competition.
“How is this compared to a third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist?”
The situation of his battle with Enrico yesterday afternoon flashed through Chu Nan’s mind. After roughly comparing it, he felt that if he used Enrico as the standard for a third-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist, he would have the strength to fight with his current strength.
However, Enrico had clearly held back yesterday afternoon. Moreover, he had also said that he was considered a very ordinary third-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist and was not considered outstanding.
If Maruk really had the strength of a third-stage Internal Breath expert, he might be slightly stronger than Enrico.
In this way, even if Chu Nan had improved, he might not have the ability to face Maruk head-on.
wa
Chu Nan took a deep breath and threw another punch.
Be it the increase in the strength of his body or the increase in his meridians and Internal Breath, it had changed his precise control of his body.
He had to experience these changes as soon as possible and regain precise control of his body. Only then could he use them better.
Sitting Horse Rush Fist… Retreating Horse Stab Fist… Shooting Horse Cup Fist…
Punches after punches were thrown. With his powerful data ability, every punch of Chu Nan’s clearly became smooth and fluid. His movements became more and more harmonious and perfect, and the flow of Internal Breath in his meridians also became smoother and faster.
Soon, he found the feeling of his fist technique, body, and Internal Breath perfectly fusing together.
This feeling was extremely beautiful. It actually made him punch out again and again, and he was simply unwilling to stop.
“Hey, Chu Nan, just take a shower. What are you doing inside? Are you done showering? The Deputy Dean sent a message to rush you.” Dong Fang’s voice suddenly sounded outside the bathroom.
“I’ll be done soon.”
Chu Nan replied loudly and slowly retracted his fist and clenched it.
Just the increase in his blood vessels and meridians made his strength increase so obviously.
If he could really reach the “Perfect Overlord Body” that Rengal spoke of, what realm would he reach?
After thinking for a moment, Chu Nan gently exhaled and put away his distracting thoughts before concentrating again. He would think about it in the future. The most important thing now was to win the semi-finals.
Now, his strength had clearly increased through the bold adventure last night.
If it was said that there was no possibility of him winning against Maruk before, then now, he already had this possibility!
