NOVEL WEB Chapter 85 Threats? Where do you get the confidence to threaten me?_3
With that said, Yang Jianming kicked Zhang Yang off the Martial Arts Platform.
The medical personnel waiting below the platform immediately rushed forward with a stretcher and carried Zhang Yang away.
At that moment, the audience finally snapped back to their senses, and an uproar erupted.
"This... this is so brutal..."
"The contestant on Martial Arts Platform Number 14... Are both his arms crippled?"
"We're all students; couldn't he have just stopped when the outcome was clear? How can someone be so heartless?"
"Ah-Yang!"
Someone cried out in alarm and quickly stood up to rush toward the medical room.
"Dad... Dad... is the top scholar competition... this cruel and heartless?"
Su Erke's face turned a little pale. She was still just a child and had never witnessed such a brutal scene before; she suddenly felt quite unwell.
Beside her, Su Yike also felt uneasy watching, silently praying that her brother, Su Yan, wouldn't encounter the cold-blooded Yang Jianming...
Soon, the first round of the competition was over.
All 32 victors were determined.
Their names appeared on the big screen in the center of the square.

"Fang Pingyuan! Charge, charge, charge! Win swiftly and decisively in the next round!"
"Hansheng! Mommy loves you! Go for it!"
"Shuyu is incredible! The pride of Dongguan! The handsomest guy in the whole arena!"
The moment the list of victors appeared, the spectators from various regions below the platform erupted in cheers, shouting encouragement for their local contestants.
At this point, the female host, Qin Yao, who had been like a decorative vase with no real presence until now, finally spoke.
"What a tense, thrilling, and absolutely splendid competition this is!"
"Congratulations to our 32 victors! Can we give them a round of applause, please?"
CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!
As soon as she finished speaking, a wave of applause erupted from the crowd.
"As for the 32 contestants who were unfortunately defeated, they all demonstrated Spirit worthy of our admiration! Let's give them a round of applause as well, shall we?"
CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!
Deafening applause once again rose from the audience.
"The first round is over," Qin Yao announced.
"However, the matchups for our second round are about to be revealed!"
"Are you all nervous? Excited?"
"Next, please turn your attention to the big screen, where our random matching System will arrange the second-round duels!"
As soon as Qin Yao finished speaking, the names of the 32 contestants on the large screen in the center of the square began to shuffle and reorganize, much to the audience's excitement.
At that moment, Su Yike, who was in the audience, was praying fervently. I hope my brother isn't matched with Yang Jianming... Please don't let him be matched... He absolutely mustn't be matched...
Soon! The matching was complete! The 16 duel pairings immediately appeared on the big screen!

When Su Yike saw the second-round matchups displayed on the screen, her heart plummeted...
「Meanwhile」
Yang Jianming had also walked over to Su Yan. With an expressionless face, he said, "Student Su Yan, if you're not confident you can defeat me, please admit defeat from the outset. Don't sour my mood."
"Otherwise," Yang Jianming added in a chilling tone, "you'll end up just like Zhang Yang."
Su Yan didn't respond. He completely ignored Yang Jianming and brushed past him.
As he walked away, Su Yan chuckled inwardly. Zhang Yang's fate will be mine? Where does a mere Rare Level Creature get the audacity to act so arrogant?
