Emperor of The Cosmos c32

It was as if the target was hit by a typhoon, shaking left and right. A series of numbers appeared on the screen. Every student had a set amount of time to strike the target a hundred times. This event not only tested punching power but also stamina. Punching a hundred times at full power was very taxing on the body.

Some people couldn’t even keep their breath up with the pace they punch at.

Though tired, Jiang Li wasn’t huffing and puffing heavily after a hundred strikes.

“An average punching force of 1 ton! Please move on to the other tests…” The holographic computer displayed the data.

This wasn’t a test of one punch, but rather the average of a hundred punches. If Jiang Li only had to punch once, the power would be even greater.

The average power of a hundred punches was far from one explosive punch. A typical martial expert would be exhausted after more than ten punches at full power.

“What! Average punching force of 1 ton? This student actually broke the threshold! I wonder how strong he is. He even has a sprint time of 4.8 seconds.”

“What’s his overall score?”

“Dayum, this is a miracle of the examinations.”

“An unexpected contestant.”

“Call the principal.”

The nearby teachers were in an uproar, because a potential candidate for Astral University had been found.

Miss Blade and Lazy Long were also present. They looked at each other and nodded, as if such results were expected.

A short while later, Jiang Li’s kicking, deep squat and weight bearing scores were out. The holographic computer gave judgment, “The early estimate of the score for this exam is a life force of 1. Now, please enter the combat room to start the next phase.”

“Sure enough my life force has reached 1.” Jiang Li let a smile come across his face after looking at the results. He did not use his full power in the tests in order to conserve energy for the following combat test. If he failed that, he might get penalized, reducing his life force to 0.99.

The combat tests were carried out in the holographic combat rooms.

This type of place was just like where Zhen Wenbing and Lara Luo trained. After entering, artificial scenery would appear, followed by a person that represented a martial expert. One would fight with him to test their combat prowess.

The fake martial expert was extremely strong, an amalgamation of energy that functioned like a real person. In the short time period of its manifestation, it would have all the attributes of a real person such as breathing, heartbeat, pulse…

This type of technology was extrapolated from the army, and was very advanced. But the energy consumption was great, and only organizations like schools could afford such equipment. However they would only use them during examination periods due to the high costs of maintenance.

Using it for the normal study curriculum was unrealistic.

It was said that the school was spending up 100,000 star coins per hour in the short period of time of the examinations.

“Student Jiang Li, student number…”

Jiang Li entered the pitch black combat room. He couldn’t even see his fingers. Only a voice resonated in the room, “The test starts now. Martial Expert initiated, energy levels sufficient.”

Sou!

A ray of light converged, and the scenery changed. Jiang Li found himself in a great grassy plain with trees and flowers everywhere. In the centre of the place stood a man with ancient clothing and a white beard. He even had a long braid. He was not an imposing figure, but rather seemed a bit small and lanky.

But, the old man exuded an indescribable aura that rang with depth.

“Come!”

The old man waved at Jiang Li, as if he was a real ancient martial expert reborn in the current era.

The movement was gentle.

Hong! Jiang Li felt like as if he had stepped into the eye of the storm, his movements swayed by a great force. He body spun like an uncoiled spring, his bodily meridians played like the wires of a string instrument.

His ligaments were like a lute. A light touch from the old man made him lose all his combat power.

But the martial expert was faster than him, and shaking his hands as if playing with an invisible spear, he drew an arc in the air upon Jiang Li’s hands. The moment they touched, Jiang Li’s hands shaked and creaked, as if put into a meat grinder that would break his bones.

[Cloud Palm] of Tai Chi!

Ping!

Jiang Li leaped up and viciously kicked at the martial expert’s ankle joint in an attempt to save himself.

It was as if there were eyes on the martial expert’s legs. They formed a straight posture and kicked back at Jiang Li.

Trapped in both the upper and lower body, Jiang Li fell into a difficult position. If he had no surprises left he would be sent flying with broken ligaments and bones, a tragic outcome.
