Overtly aggressive behavior.

Damn it, isn't this just provoking Zhang Chaoqiang? Isn't his aggressive behavior towards Xiao Xia too obvious?

Lei She's words of protection, coupled with the harsh words Zhang Chaoqiang said to Xiao Xia before the game, aren't these a clear threat to the opponent?

In the current situation, the subsequent fermentation on site is becoming more and more worth looking forward to.

The three families of the Wu and Lei families, the admissions offices of the three universities, and the audience in the stands all acted as spectators.

Eating melons on the spot has become their primary productive force.

With the expectation of the whole audience and Lei She's call, the 32 players who will compete in the one-on-one match are gradually stepping into the game...

Enter the synthetic space where each team competes.

There is no doubt that this game was a clear opportunity for Zhang Chaoqiang to seek personal revenge.

As for this point, of course, other people will not bring up this matter and will just ignore it as it has nothing to do with them.

Xiao Xia, the person involved, was even more isolated and helpless. After others had entered the synthetic space, she was still standing there, tightly clutching a corner of her clothes with both hands.

He still stood there in a daze, gritting his teeth and thinking that he might as well just give up the game.

However, facing the pressure from Xiao Xia's own family, she had to bite the bullet and enter the synthetic space to face it.

First there was Zhang Chaoqiang's threat to Xiao Xia, and then there were her own family's expectations of her.

She knew that compared to being defeated by Zhang Chaoqiang or even getting injured on the field, this was far better than giving up.

Who is capable of abstaining?

He was a coward. In martial arts, giving up before the competition even started was completely different from directly rejecting the warrior who challenged him.

The first is to give up halfway. Giving in directly on the field will become a stain on a person, especially in such an open national competition, it will become a laughing stock for everyone.

Therefore, during the few seconds of hesitation, different possibilities had actually evolved in Xiao Xia's mind.

In the competition, even with the help of various magical medicines, I am afraid that I can't completely avoid injuries. Who knows what kind of "conspiracy" Zhang Chaoqiang will create?

If she gave up, both she and the whole family would become a laughing stock. And the family would never allow her to give up easily. Who could accept that their family would run away from a national competition because of a junior?
They don't even have the nerve to face it!
The two blows, one after the other, instantly left her isolated and helpless, and in the end she had no choice but to face them.

When she stepped into the arena, there was nothing else to say, everything was self-explanatory.

The competition from the top 32 to the top 16 this morning will also take one hour. Within one hour, the assessment content will be randomly conducted in the synthesis space.

In other words, the assessment content in each synthetic space is different from that of other competing groups.

Anyway, this is a one-on-one competition, so it doesn’t matter whether the rules and content of the competition are the same or not.

Under the current circumstances, each group has basically selected its own assessment content.

For example, the group consisting of Gao Guojun and Gu Yizhen drew the topic of synthesizing the most second-order low-concentration crystal nuclei within an hour to advance!

Second-order crystal core!

The first second-order crystal core test finally appeared on the field.

Each level of crystal core has a different level of difficulty. For them who are still at the level of second-level synthesizers, synthesizing a second-level artificial crystal core...

The speed and efficiency are far more troublesome and complicated than the first-order artificial crystal core.

The gap between players will only be much larger than that of a first-level crystal core.

However, Gao Guojun thought that even if he was chosen to answer other questions, he would not be able to beat the opponent, so he accepted his fate.

At the same time, almost every time, he would compare himself with the unlucky Xiao Xia. From this point of view, it is very likely that his luck is already very good.

The topic selected by Yang Yunqing and others is to transform the first-order synthetic crystal nucleus into a second-order crystal nucleus. Those who successfully transform the most within an hour will get the opportunity to advance.

This problem is more difficult than the second-order crystal nucleus.

Because transforming an existing first-order crystal nucleus into a second-order artificial crystal nucleus is actually changing the microscopic crystal nucleus embryo therein.

It seems that there is one more conversion step and one less compression and purification step...

However, the process is not like this.

What they want to do is to change the microscopic sequence of the first-order crystal core, so as to re-purify the spiritual power in the second-order monster crystal core and then compress it.

The so-called changing of the microstructure, in other words, means decomposing and disassembling the original structure.

This step tests people's level of detail. What they need to pay very rigorous and careful attention to in this question is to ensure that the original structure is intact.

Only then can you meet the standards in the question.

Some people also drew the question of decomposing artificial crystal cores. As a qualified synthesizer, it is not only necessary to master the most basic synthesis methods.

It is also necessary to master the decomposition method so that you can have the most critical ability of a synthesizer.

Each step needs to be understood and thoroughly applied at every stage.

This is the most basic test for a compositor.

And this time's competition just happened to correspond to the word efficiency. What is efficiency?

Efficiency is the combination of speed and stability, and the most critical factor affecting speed is proficiency. For every step and every stage in the synthesis of artificial crystal cores...

The proficiency of a synthesizer can directly represent his efficiency at this stage or in synthesizing crystal cores. Therefore, this is how we can test the efficiency of both players to see who is more efficient?
There is certainly no problem with this.

As the contestants began to worry about what kind of competition test questions they would draw, Zhang Chaoqiang and Xiao Xia in the other synthesis space...

Basically there isn't a lot of emotion.

One was swallowing his saliva, and the other's eyes never showed any confusion, as if Zhang Chaoqiang knew what he should do next and what he needed to do.

At this moment, Zhang Chaoqiang didn't care what kind of competition test questions he would draw, because for him, they were basically all the same. There wouldn't be too many changes, and he would definitely win anyway.

So when the void screen kept rotating in the middle of the synthesis table where Zhang Chaoqiang and Xiao Xia were.

At this time, he did not have much emotion in his heart. Compared with Xiao Xia who was nervous, Zhang Chaoqiang was calm, like a lake that would not stir up any waves.

Finally, the void screen that had been flipping continuously gradually stopped.

The above test questions are very simple, different from the decomposing artificial synthetic crystal cores or converting low-level artificial synthetic crystal cores into higher-level crystal cores drawn by other contestants.

Their assessment task is to synthesize first-order intermediate artificial crystal cores. Within the limited time of one hour, whoever synthesizes more artificial crystal cores and the less damage to the microstructure will be the winner.

He was also able to successfully advance to the next round of the top sixteen.

At present, Xiao Xia's mental state seems to be a little inappropriate.

The competition was about to begin, and her mind was not focused on synthesizing the crystal core at all.

After all, everyone knows that Zhang Chaoqiang's real motive this time is not victory. In Zhang Jiaqiang's eyes, victory is a foregone conclusion, and his main purpose is to avenge the offense his parents suffered before.

As Xiao Xia's family, they no longer hope for any miracle to happen.

It was almost impossible for Xiao Xia to successfully defeat Zhang Chaoqiang. They just hoped that Xiao Xia would be able to defeat Zhang Chaoqiang in the synthetic space...

Don’t be in too bad a state after losing to Zhang Chaoqiang, and don’t lose face for the Xiao family too much.

At this moment, the spiritual power emanating from Xiao Xia's body did not act on the synthetic crystal core at all.

She had managed to protect all of her spiritual power within herself, fearing that the spiritual medicines she had taken before the competition would be ineffective and unable to protect her.

However, Zhang Chaoqiang didn't seem to notice or care about her behavior at all, but just carried out his own synthesis steps.

The synthesis of low-order artificial crystal cores is very simple.

For Zhang Chaoqiang, being able to synthesize as many as 30 pieces in a short period of time means that his speed and efficiency have reached the level of perfection. It only takes less than a few minutes for him to successfully purify the first-level monster crystal core.

The second step of processing was carried out in advance, and everything seemed to be running in a calm and orderly state.

After several minutes, Xiao Xia still did not perform her synthesis movements.

It seemed that everything was going on peacefully. Zhang Chaoqiang and Xiao Xia, who were sitting opposite each other, didn't seem to be disturbing each other.

Xiao Xia felt something was not right. At that moment, she could not determine whether it was the spiritual power she used to protect her body.

Or maybe the defensive elixir he had taken before successfully resisted Zhang Chaoqiang's attack, or maybe Zhang Chaoqiang had not launched a sneak attack on him at all.

So he gradually let go of his worries a little bit.

At this time, the Xiao family, who were watching the game outside the synthetic space, suddenly felt that many eyes were aimed at them, and these eyes were not friendly at all.

The reason was that the performance of his junior contestant Xiao Xia on the field was too eye-catching.

Not only did he stay in a daze for nearly several minutes, but his state after he started to synthesize his movements was also so slow.

It was so cool that it completely destroyed the Xiao family's reputation.

But there was no other way, I had to grit my teeth and watch it, even though I knew the final outcome would be a complete failure.

Zhang Chaoqiang, who had not taken any action in the synthetic space, seemed not to care at all about Xiao Xia's reactions and defensive behaviors.

He knew that such behavior would not have any impact on him in the end.

In this state, he continued to perform his synthesis without rushing or getting impatient.

He did not attack Xiao Xia immediately. After 20 minutes, Zhang Chaoqiang successfully synthesized nearly six artificial synthetic crystal nuclei in his hand, and it took only less than 30 minutes.

After more than 30 minutes, Xiao Xia, who had always been very wary of him, gradually changed her fear of Zhang Chaoqiang into slight fear.

Although all the spiritual power that she had previously used to protect her body was transferred back to him.

But in terms of the crystal core, she still divided her attention into two parts, one part was used to synthesize the crystal core, and the other part was used to guard against Zhang Chaoqiang's aggressive behavior.

This kind of multitasking behavior was destined to result in her results being negligible compared to Zhang Chaoqiang, and it took her more than half an hour.

Xiao Xia's current overall condition is that she has only synthesized a first-order intermediate-concentration artificial crystal core, which can be described as a mess.

When Zhang Chaoqiang successfully synthesized the seventh crystal core, he had ensured that he had crushed Xiao Xia, the so-called opponent, by a huge margin.

Afterwards, his main focus shifted from the synthetic crystal core to Xiao Xia.

Making Xiao Xia miserable is Zhang Chaoqiang's only goal and necessary action now.

Without further ado, he gave Tie Daren and Gao Guojun the same mocking look that the other party had used when he was testing his parents as bait.

Zhang Chaoqiang used the same look towards Xiao Xia, who was on the opposite side of him. At that moment, Xiao Xia's whole body trembled violently.

Zhang Chaoqiang couldn't help but complain in his heart. He didn't understand why Xiao Xia was shaking just now, and he hadn't even started his attack yet.

Afterwards, [Burning Eyes], which had not been blessed by [Scream], was used on Xiao Xia's body. To be more precise, it acted on her hands, which were communicating with the spiritual power of the monster's crystal core.

With a clanging sound.

Zhang Chaoqiang's probing gaze seemed to hit a layer of skin with a metallic luster.

He knew that this was probably Xiao Xia's method of guarding against his attacks.

Then his dazzling focus gradually began to come into focus.

What’s interesting is... no one noticed Zhang Chaoqiang’s gaze.

The concentration of scorching eyes, while generating higher temperatures and destructive power, also caused Zhang Chaoqiang's two eyes to gradually move closer together, temporarily turning him into a cross-eyed man. (End of this chapter)
