This martial arts competition has expanded from the four major war schools to sixteen war schools.

Because of the increase in rewards, many children from aristocratic families who did not participate in the competition in previous years have also joined the registration process.

Of course, the most dominant ones are actually these four major war schools. After all, even if the children of aristocratic families want to be gilded with the status of a prestigious school, they will choose the four major ones.

However, the other three schools are located in the Imperial Capital and the Magic City respectively. This one is the political center and the other is the economic center. They have the most aristocratic families.

As far as Yang Jinsong knows, the contestants from these two war schools are all from aristocratic families.

Although the Lingnan War Academy is not as dazzling as the Imperial Capital and the Magic City, due to the large population in the Lingnan area, it has been catching up very quickly in recent years.

Finally, there is Beimang. If it were to compete with the strength of ordinary senior students, Beimang would definitely be worthy.

However, the most powerful family in the entire North is the Shen family. Shen Jianyi of the Shen family is not a senior and has not yet reached his peak, so there is no way he can be selected for the big list.

"This time, I really can't compete with them. It would be good to keep the top four."

Yang Jinsong's assistant also had a slightly worried look on his eyebrows.

Because Beimang is located in a bitter cold land, and there are no very powerful aristocratic families in the north, although many children with ideals and ambitions are still willing to apply, there are fewer children from aristocratic families.

There are many rising stars among the 16 major war academies who signed up this time. If the children of aristocratic families among them also come to participate, it will really be a huge challenge for Beimang.

"That's all. After all, rewards are given to everyone. Have you selected the squad?"

Yang Jinsong shook his head. He didn't really care about the ranking, but compared to the other three universities, their school was already poorer, and he wanted to take advantage of this competition to get more benefits for the students.

"The selection has been made, but now there is a problem with the fifth person."

The assistant looked embarrassed.

"Among our senior students, there are currently only seven who have reached level four. Three of them were interns at the military department and helped the city guards fight mutant beasts. They were seriously injured and may not be able to compete in the competition."

Yang Jinsong was silent for a while again.

I felt happy for these students, but also felt a little regretful.

He was able to confirm that among the four major war academies, except Beimang, the five-person lists sent by the other three schools were definitely fourth-level awakened ones!

The third level is different from the fourth level. Perhaps some second-level awakened people can surpass the third-level awakened people by relying on factors such as tactics, original veins, and awakening talents.

But the difference between level 4 and level 3 is compressed force. The difference between these things is huge.

If Beimang finally sends a third-level awakened person to compete, it won't matter if it goes against an ordinary school. It will definitely be equivalent to four against five against the other three of the four major war schools.

"By the way, principal, I remember, didn't you say that you would let Xiao Chen compete? I heard that that kid grew up very fast in the Night Criminal Division."

The assistant seemed to suddenly think of something. Yang Jinsong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"That's what I thought before. This kid's progress rate should have reached level three by this time, but there wasn't such a big battle at that time."

The assistant was stunned for a moment, then thought about it.

At that time, the scale had not been expanded, and the children of the aristocratic families had not yet participated. If Xiao Chen had shown the actual combat power at the beginning, he could really enter the big list.

"Besides, the military has been doing a lot recently, so this guy must be very busy. Forget it."

Yang Jinsong shook his head, thinking of Xiao Chen, a smile appeared on his lips.

Even though he was used to seeing geniuses, he was still amazed when he learned that Xiao Chen had such strength in his freshman year.

"He will still have a chance in the next session. Anyway, there is still some time left in the competition, so we'll see."

.....................

After inquiring about the competition date, Xiao Chen began a retreat at Beiling Pass.

In addition to the city guard commander Huang Sicai who occasionally came to him for a drink, Xiao Chen also went to Chen Dave's vegetable garden and had a few meals.

The rest of the time, I am completely immersed in the joy of absorbing life crystals.

He had obtained the Life Crystal before in Tianyuanli and later in the Battle of Beiling Pass, but he never had time to use it.

After giving some bits and pieces of life crystals to his sister, Xiao Chen finally consumed three-quarters of the life crystals on hand after twenty-seven days.

The rest must be reserved for use in battle.

As the early morning sunlight poured into the room, Xiao Chen slowly entered a state of inner vision.

"Physique, 3445/3471."

"The Force, 3578(2003)/3688."

"Spirit,3322/3358."

Previously, because the Fire Spirit could enhance a part of the spirit and body, Xiao Chen's two statistics had always been higher than those of the Force. However, after this compression of the Force, the situation changed.

"Two thousand points of compressed force is already higher than that of an ordinary fourth-level high-grade awakened person."

Not to mention, his total force power has reached a terrifying 3688 points!

Xiao Chen checked the data on the Internet and found that the most common fourth-level high-grade awakened person, after compressing the force, has a final value of about 1,600.

After all the force has been transformed, you can transform into a fifth-level awakener. At that time, the three values ​​will increase again.

But when Xiao Chen looked at his current data, he felt that the relatively weak fourth-level high-grade ones might not be as good as him after being promoted to fifth-level data.

In addition, what makes Xiao Chen even more happy is that his awakening skill "Returning Qi" has finally completed the second stage of advancement!

"Explosive element."

"Burn your own force and give it to the target. At the same time, the target's physical strength will be increased by 20%, the force and mental power will be increased by 15%, the pain will be weakened, and the recovery speed of the force will be increased by 30%."

"Duration 1 minute."

"The consumption depends on the strength of the recipient. The minimum consumption is 200 points of force, and the maximum consumption is no more than one's own force."

"It can be released on itself. After use, it consumes a fixed amount of 800 points of compressed force."

"Cooling time, thirty minutes."

After seeing this skill, Xiao Chen was completely stunned.

Before, the breath recovery was considered a good auxiliary combat skill, but now, it can be said to be a bit of a magical skill.

Not only can you give your own force to the opponent through burning, but it can also provide very high bonuses!

For someone like Liu Zimo, who has strong combat power, but his awakening technique consumes a lot of force, pair him with Xiao Chen, and his combat power can be said to increase exponentially.

The only regret is that the cooldown time is too long, and the consumption has increased a lot, so he can no longer use it as a small enhanced state like before.

Breaking away from the internal vision, Xiao Chen called Mu Xiaowan who was also absorbing the crystal.
