This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 440 - 5: The Return of the Monarch (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

Chapter 440 -5: The Return of the Monarch (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

“Qingxu True Monarch, as well as everyone, I have a suggestion.”

Nolan Zhi stood up from his seat and began to speak.

“Oh?”

Qingxu True Monarch turned his head to look at Nolan Zhi.

Li Fei also calmly looked at the other party.

In fact, without Ke Yan’s reminder, he had guessed that the other party might cause trouble for him at tonight’s banquet.

As for the manner of causing trouble, in front of so many people, the other party definitely couldn’t overpower the weak, nor could they resort to any despicable means.

There were only a few possibilities.

Li Fei wasn’t afraid at all!

“Perhaps you have also heard, over a month ago our Hongyi University had gone to Datong Prefecture for an exchange match with Wu’an University. I had hoped to meet Li Fei during that exchange match, but he did not show up at that time.”

Nolan Zhi glanced at Li Fei and spoke aloud:

“As for this first among talents, we at Hongyi University are also quite curious, and would have loved to interact with him, but unfortunately, it was not possible last time. Having the chance to meet this time, I want to use this opportunity to make up for that regret, and I ask Qingxu True Monarch and everyone to grant us this favor.”

Saying so, he bowed to Qingxu True Monarch in the main seat.

“What kind of interaction does Brother Nolan wish to have?”

Beside them, Qing Xia True Master began to speak.

Nolan Zhi smiled and said, “Naturally, through meeting as fellow martial artists and exchanging martial arts.”

Qing Xia True Master frowned, but before she could speak, Nolan Zhi was already looking toward Li Fei:

“Today you represent Wu’an University, and I represent Hongyi University; it should be for you and me to exchange, but I am obviously much older than you and my realm is far above yours. To have an exchange with you would indeed be bullying the weak.”

Saying so, he looked toward a young man beside him.

The man immediately stood up from his seat.

“His name is Meng Tao, he is a professor at Hongyi University, 22 years old, and has just broken through to the Tao Foundation Stage one year ago.”

Nolan Zhi introduced Meng Tao while pointing at him.

This Meng Tao had, over a month ago during that ‘academic exchange,’ challenged Wuda’s ‘One-Armed’ professor, exchanging the Fast Sword Technique with him.

Though he lost in the end, he also demonstrated remarkable swordsmanship and combat power.

“In terms of both age and realm, he is similar to you, so why not have him, representing Hongyi University, and you, representing Wu’an University, have an exchange to entertain Qingxu True Monarch!”

Nolan Zhi pointed at Meng Tao and said to Li Fei.

What he said about ‘entertaining Qingxu True Monarch,’ ‘entertaining’ doesn’t mean to mock but to perform, to display.

Entertaining a True Monarch isn’t considered an insult to Li Fei.

Moreover, it sort of put Li Fei in a spot; if Li Fei refused, it could seem like he wasn’t giving Qingxu True Monarch face.

And since Li Fei represented Wuda now, if he avoided the fight, it would also dishonor Wuda.

Especially since the opponent’s age and realm were indeed similar to his.

Given Nolan Zhi’s realm, naturally, he couldn’t have an exchange with Li Fei.

So, his initial plan was to let his sect’s Meng Tao challenge Li Fei.

Meng Tao is a professor at Hongyi University, while Li Fei is merely a student at Wuda; originally, their statuses weren’t equivalent.

But now Li Fei is the leader of Wuda, representing Wuda, so this status is no longer a problem.

Shi Caiming, in order to protect Li Fei, forcibly elevated his status, which Nolan Zhi saw as a flaw.

Because status and strength completely mismatch!

Li Fei had broken through to the Tao Foundation Stage three months ago, and Nolan Zhi had learned that two months earlier, Wuda had purchased a Third Grade lower-grade Implant [Ghostly Foot] from another province.

He knew Li Fei’s cultivated Force was Vajra Force, and adding the [Ghostly Foot] that Wuda had purchased at great cost, it was easy to deduce that Li Fei’s cultivated Tao Foundation was [Mixed Element Heavenly Gold].

Then by inquiring further about the time Wuda purchased the next Fire Attribute Implant [Flame Core], one could know that Li Fei’s current realm included only those two implants.

Even if Li Fei had already cultivated the [Ghostly Foot] to the Qi Change Stage, and had completed deep activation, developing Core Level Extraordinary Abilities, Li Fei’s combat power would be at most Tier 3 of the Tao Foundation Stage.

With the addition of combat talent and advanced martial arts, at most, it could reach 3.5 Tier.

A Tier 3.5 Tao Foundation Stage Martial Artist, wouldn’t he be easy to target?

The Meng Tao sent by Nolan Zhi also had two implants with two Core Level Extraordinary Abilities, and was a Tier 3 Tao Foundation Stage.

After his last battle with that One-Armed Professor of Wuda, his swordsmanship had also made a breakthrough, his combat power could now be considered at 3.5 Tier.

Of course, if it were just this, Nolan Zhi wouldn’t be so confident in Meng Tao.

Importantly, Li Fei’s cultivated Force was Gold Attribute, while Meng Tao’s was Fire Attribute.

Fire conquers Gold!

In similar realms, the conflict of Five Elements Attributes would greatly influence the battle.

In the end, for this battle, Nolan Zhi had specifically prepared other means for Meng Tao.

Thus, he believed this battle was a sure win!

To defeat Wu’an University’s representative publicly, make Wuda lose face, and consequently severely injure Li Fei, hindering this exceptional genius’s cultivation progress, that was his plan.

Li Fei looked at Meng Tao, preparing to speak, when Ke Yan suddenly stood up and began to speak:

“Vice Chancellor Nolan, for today’s occasion isn’t it quite inappropriate to exchange martial arts? Moreover, today’s banquet is hosted by the Daluo Sect, our two sides exchanging here seems somewhat overshadowing.”

Nolan Zhi smiled and said, “Since it’s a banquet, why not have a spectacle? I have them perform for Qingxu True Monarch, which is out of respect for the True Monarch and Daluo Sect. How could it be considered overshadowing?”

“You mentioned this Professor Meng Tao is 22 years old this year, four years older than our leader, and has been in the Tao Foundation Stage longer than our leader; I doubt such an exchange could be considered fair.”
