I Have A Game Clone Chapter 85 – 85 The Competition and Leaderboard

85 The Competition and Leaderboard

“Originally, according to the official arrangements, this competition was to be held after the first semester. However, after the incident in the Fei Li Island, we feel that it is necessary to promote the martial arts in our country.”

Yun Moxiang took back the information Ning Shi had read and stood up.

“In order to stimulate the general atmosphere of martial arts and enhance the fighting ability of the people, the officials have arranged two competitions and two rankings this time.”

“The first competition is the Awakeners' Campus Competition. The participants had to be students from the major awakener schools.”

“The second is the National Awakeners' competition. There were no age restrictions or strength restrictions on the participants. As long as they were awakeners, they could sign up.”

“For these two competitions, the officials would not only invest a large amount of material resources and give the well-performing contestants extremely high bonuses and rewards, but they would also mobilize a large number of news media to promote the contestants, packaging them as big idols that everyone will know and pursue.”

“The leaderboard is also a way for the government to stimulate competitiveness among the people. It will be divided into two boards, the Hidden Dragon Board for those under 20 years old, and the Outstanding Board for all ages.

“Only the top 100 will be selected for both lists, and the lists are updated once every quarter. Those who make it to the list will receive corresponding material rewards.”

“The rules of the National Awakeners' Competition have been decided by the officials. Injuries are allowed in the competition. As for the rules and standards of the campus competition, the participation and suggestions of the principals are required.”

Ning Shi knew that the officials were anxious.

In the past, the countries that played games with green blood were now allowing injuries in competitions. The bloody and brutal fighting scenes would even be broadcasted live to the whole nation.

This was a change that had to be made in the context of the insect plague.

In times of peace, the country needed its people to maintain order and civilization, and to do a good job in production and service. However, in times of turmoil, the country had to appropriately stimulate the people's courage.

They needed the people to gradually get used to fighting and killing so that they would have a certain level of combat ability.

Promoting martial arts might further increase the crime rate in the short term, but in the long run, it would enhance the overall strength of the country.

The public's negative emotions would also have an outlet because of the competition, which was more beneficial than harmful for public security.

It just so happened that Yunmeng Kingdom had the awakening potion, which could bring in resources from all over the world. The country had to think of ways to use these resources to enhance the strength of its people.

Organizing a competition was also a way to distribute resources reasonably.

According to Yun Moxiang, the officials had originally planned to hold the competition after the number of awakeners was large enough. However, since there was an insect disaster in one of the neighboring countries, the officials had no choice but to bring the plan forward.

Ning Shi had no doubt that the competition and ranking would cause a sensation.

After all, in one's life, one couldn't escape the words ‘fame' and ‘wealth'.

Winning the competition and being ranked on the official leaderboards would be the lifelong dream and pursuit of many people.

Ning Shi digested the news Yun Moxiang brought and asked, “When is the principal's meeting?”

“Time is very tight. The conference starts at 1 p.m. tomorrow. I've already booked the ticket for you tomorrow morning.”

“I'll fly to Central City with you.”

Ning Shi nodded. Since it involved the school, it would be better for him to go.

He would be able to receive the country's reward faster, and he could also exchange teaching experience with the other headmasters. This operation was imperative.

After giving her instructions, Yun Moxiang saw that it was getting late and prepared to leave.

Before she left, she asked again, “Consultant Ning, the country will announce the rules of the National Competition in two days' time, as well as the Outstanding Board's list.”

“With your strength and status, the officials can arrange for you to enter the list.”

“Do you want to enter the rankings?”

Ning Shi quickly waved his hand. “No need. Please don't put me on the list.”

He didn't want to be in the limelight yet. First, he didn't want to be too high-profile. Second, he didn't want to be a celebrity and be surrounded by people.”

Yun Moxiang made an OK gesture.

“No problem. We won't put you on the list for the time being because you're not very famous now.'

“If you have a world-shaking battle record in the future, we'll have to include you in the list for the sake of its credibility.”

“I won't. Don't worry, I like to keep a low profile.”

Hearing Ning Shi's answer, Yun Moxiang smiled meaningfully and left.

Realizing that he would be leaving tomorrow, Ning Shi quickly called Li Daxiang and Duan Qixun and asked them to come to his place.

After these few days of getting along, Ning Shi was clear about the character and ability of the two masters.

His Bajiquan and basic swordsmanship had been selflessly taught by the two masters. Ning Shi had long wanted to teach them the original version of the extreme body forging method, but out of caution, he had observed them for a few more days.

This time, he had to go to a meeting, but he couldn't ignore his three disciples. He could teach the original version of the cultivation technique to the two masters and let them help keep an eye on his three disciples' cultivation.

When they received Ning Shi's call so late at night, Li Daxiang and Duan Qixun both thought it was an emergency and rushed over.

Ning Shi didn't waste any words and directly explained the reason. He then handed the original extreme body forging method to Li Daxiang and Duan Qixun.

After the two masters calmed down, Ning Shi said.

“Do familiarize yourselves with the contents of the cultivation technique as soon as possible. Later on, you can go to the field and cultivate. I have time tonight, so I would like to discuss any issues regarding the cultivation technique with you.”

In front of martial arts masters, Ning Shi wouldn't act arrogantly. He wouldn't directly say that he would teach them, but would rather politely refer to it as a ‘discussion'.

The truth was indeed as Ning Shi had thought.

The two masters had been practicing martial arts for decades, and their control over their bodies had reached an abnormal level.

This fine control came from decades of hard work. It was like water dripping through a stone, not something Ning Shi could obtain by adding points.

In less than two hours of practice, the two masters had completely mastered the essence of the extreme body forging method. They could even skip the physical limit and pain limit stage of the extreme body forging method and enter the limit simulation stage.

This was what it meant to be well-prepared.

The two masters, Li Daxiang and Duan Qixun, had accumulated dozens of years' worth of skill, but they did not have a suitable technique.

Now that they had this extreme body forging technique, their strength would improve by leaps and bounds in a short time.

From them, Ning Shi also noticed his own shortcomings.

He was too dependent on leveling up and adding points. He still needed to polish his skills.

For example, the damage and power of the level five basic swordsmanship used by Duan Qixun was definitely much stronger than Ning Shi's.

Feeling the increase in strength, Li Daxiang and Duan Qixun looked at each other, and Li Daxiang spoke, “Principal Ning, we'll always remember your kindness in passing on your cultivation technique to us. Don't worry, we definitely won't pass on the extreme body forging technique to anyone else without your permission.”

If it was before, Ning Shi would be worried that the extreme body forging technique would be stolen by foreign countries.

After knowing that the Fei Li Island was attacked by the insect plague, Ning Shi had learned to look at the bigger picture.

It would be fine even if the extreme body forging technique was learned by foreigners. Everyone was equal in the face of the insect plague.

The competition between humans was an internal struggle, but the conflict between insects and humans was a struggle for survival.

He had obtained the original treasure of Saturn, so he should occasionally think from the perspective of the entire Saturn.

Of course, if there were benefits, he would consider his own country first.

Ning Shi cupped his fists to the two masters and said, “Teacher Li, Teacher Duan, I'll hand over the original version of the extreme body forging technique to the country when I arrive at the Central City.”

“You can impart the cultivation technique to teachers you can trust and students with better aptitudes.”

“It's just that the original version still has a certain degree of danger, so you must be careful during the teaching process.”

Duan Qixun looked at Ning Shi with admiration.

“Principal Ning's magnanimity, old Duan, I'm convinced! In the future, as long as Principal Ning gives the order, I'll do whatever you want me to do!”

Li Daxiang was much calmer. Although he was also impressed by Ning Shi, he did not show much.

“Principal Ning, don't worry and go to the meeting. I don't have any classes this morning, so I'll take care of your three disciples. Old Duan doesn't have any classes in the afternoon, so he'll come and take my place.”

After getting Li Daxiang's promise, Ning Shi returned to his residence without worry.

Looking at the time, it was already past three in the morning. Ning Shi took a short nap on his bed.

At 5:30 in the morning, Yun Moxiang drove to the entrance to pick up Ning Shi to go to the airport together.
