Chapter 37: Shouldn't the competition be over?At first everyone was relatively calm, but then they heard that there was a possibility of accidental injury and there was a risk.
The expressions of many disciples present changed unconsciously.
"Mr. Ji, shouldn't the competition be limited to a certain point? How did you get hurt?"
"Young man like you, do you know what it means to stop at the right time?
Even if you know it, does your opponent know it too?
To put it bluntly, it all depends on the elders who are watching nearby and if they think someone might get hurt, they will stop it.
If you are slow to stop him, you will get hurt. "
Ji Sheng smiled and spoke, his casual look making his words more serious.
"Just be at ease. If you feel that you are not strong enough, just admit defeat.
The martial arts competition was not originally prepared for everyone, just treat it as a formality and get some consolation prizes. "
Such words of comfort made everyone feel very uncomfortable.
There is a feeling of being despised and belittled, but it seems impossible to refute it.
"Mr. Ji underestimates us. I have learned that the realms of the disciples under other coaches are not that high either.
Many of them are only at the middle level of the eighth rank, just one small realm higher than me."
Hearing this, Ji Sheng still had a smile on his face.
“Before entering the seventh rank, it is actually very difficult to widen the gap in strength.
When my strength was at the eighth level, many of my peers could keep up.
His strength level may be just one level lower than mine.
But do you think that if one’s realm is similar, then the strength must be similar?
It is normal to have huge differences between people at the same level.
The realm difference is not that big, I just gave you some opportunities to fight so that you won't be defeated in one move."
From the beginning of his coaching career, Ji Sheng’s speeches never seemed to be encouraging.
They are all attacks and belittle everyone.
It seems that everyone has reached the worst point.
But there are so many disciples present, many of whom are genius warriors in their hometowns.
“In addition, after reaching the seventh rank, you will see the importance of talent and potential.
It may take you three to five years to make a breakthrough, but it may only take others half a year.
It is not impossible to be stuck at the eighth level for the rest of your life."
When everyone present heard this, they were silent.
Everyone knows that Ji Sheng is a genius.
If he doesn't have that ability, everyone can still say that he is jealous and is deliberately belittling everyone.
But when Ji Sheng was young, seventeen years ago, he was the champion of the new disciples' competition.
He is indeed qualified to comment.
"If you have no further questions, I'll leave first.
I advise everyone that if you have no idea what to do, it is best to admit defeat.
If you get hurt, not only will you be in pain, but you will also have to lie down for a long time, which is a waste of time.”
After saying that, Ji Sheng waved his hand and left.
Looking at his back, many disciples had a look of disgust on their faces.
"You say you're worried about us getting hurt, but to put it bluntly, you're just trying to save yourself some trouble."
The disciple sitting next to Su Chen was somewhat indignant.
Seeing Su Chen looking at him, he began to explain.
“According to the rules of Tiangang City, when we participate in the competition, he needs to pay attention to protecting us at all times.
If we admit defeat, he will save himself the trouble and can just rest easy."
After all, it turns out that it was just to save trouble.
Su Chen said that Mr. Ji Sheng probably wouldn’t care whether anyone got hurt.
After saying this, another disciple next to him sighed.
“I feel that what Ji Sheng said is also correct. The reasons why we were assigned to his command are all laid out in front of us and are very clear.
To put it bluntly, we are looked down upon by others because we lack talent and potential.
Admitting defeat is actually good for us.
It's hard to say whether Ji Sheng can protect us in that state. We'd better try our best not to get hurt."
All the disciples present seemed a little pessimistic, and even seemed to be in self-doubt.
Su Chen wanted to say something, but after hesitation, he chose to keep silent.
In the current situation, no one's comfort is of any use and may even have the opposite effect.
In comparison, Su Chen still maintains confidence in his heart.
There are still two days left, just wait patiently for the martial arts competition to begin.
The weather is getting warmer. After this competition, all the disciples should return to the front line to carry out various tasks.
After a day of rest, Senior Brother Wu Yi and others invited us to get together.
The meeting place was chosen to be the largest restaurant in the city, and a private room was booked.
Last year, the team formed by Senior Brother Wu Yi worked very well together.
Everyone is very satisfied with the contribution they have made.
There were injuries, but no one died.
This year, we naturally gathered again to carry out the mission together.
It is indeed much safer to be with people who trust each other.
Tiangang City's approach of forming its own team is more appropriate than Yunyang Sect's semi-forced arrangement.
Everyone talked about their harvest this winter.
The strength levels of several senior brothers have improved.
Even Senior Brother Wu Yi, who was at the middle level of the seventh-grade Huaigu realm, took a step forward.
After years of hard work, he finally achieved perfection in the seventh level of Huaigu in this cold winter.
No wonder his face was full of joy and he directly ordered the best wine and food in the restaurant.
After a conversation, everyone started talking about Su Chen.
The martial arts competition for new disciples is coming soon. As everyone knows, this is the highlight every year.
The performance in the martial arts competition is not just for the sake of winning some rewards as Ji Sheng said.
They are also the seniors of the sect, who come to see which ones have potential.
Will he be invited to join the mission in the future?
In addition, the elders of the sect are also watching, and some particularly outstanding ones may even be included as personal disciples.
A big reason why Wu Yi and Yao Xiaoyu were able to become his personal disciples was that they performed extremely well in the martial arts competition that year.
But everyone still looked a little worried about Su Chen.
"Junior Brother Su, are you ready for this martial arts competition?"
Yao Xiaoyu spoke first, and when she mentioned the martial arts competition, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
"I'm basically prepared, so I shouldn't lose badly."
The answer was still modest, and Su Chen didn't like to boast.
Hearing this, Wu Yi on the side coughed softly.
“We have known Junior Brother Su for such a long time, and Junior Brother Su’s ability is actually quite good.
It's just a martial arts tournament, and the opponents you'll face are much more powerful than those big monsters."
After a pause, Wu Yi continued.
"You had some unpleasantness with Mr. Ouyang Chuan before.
Taking advantage of this martial arts competition, they intend to make you suffer a little bit."
Hearing this news, Su Chen smiled and said, "I am not strong enough, so I deserve to suffer."
Hearing this, Wu Yi glanced at Yao Xiaoyu.
Senior Sister Yao also looked a bit serious.
"Su Chen, don't take these things lightly.
The disciples under Ouyang Chuan are all very talented and strong.
Even if compared with previous years, the strength of his disciples clearly has an advantage.
In particular, Jin Yue, the youngest daughter of this generation of the Jin family, is also under Ouyang Chuan's command.
If you fight, you will most likely get hurt."
