Chapter 80 The Noctem Chamber of Commerce Arrives

“Heh, Chu Nan, congratulations on winning the first round.”

Chu Nan raised his head and smiled at Fang Yuesheng.

“Aren’t you the same?”

Fang Yuesheng, who had just won the first match, laughed and shook his head. “This is different. As long as you win another round, you can enter the top eight groups below the age of 20 and obtain the reward of at least a B-rank martial technique from Supremacy Mu Yutong. As for me? I have to win at least two more consecutive rounds before I can enter the top eight.” At this point, Fang Yuesheng sighed, “Sigh, why didn’t Supremacy Mu Yutong consider the different situations of the two groups?”

Chu Nan could not help but smile. The groups below the age of 20 were different from the adult groups. There were only 32 martial artists participating in the finals, so one only needed to win two consecutive rounds to enter the top eight.

However, there were 64 participating martial artists in the final stage of the adult group. This meant that if Fang Yuesheng wanted to become the top eight, he had to win at least three consecutive rounds.

The competition in the adult group was much more intense than those in the group below the age of 20. Among the participating martial artists who entered the final stage, there were a total of seven Void Break Martial Artists.

Although Fang Yuesheng was called the number one genius of West Cloud Academy and the number one expert of the students, he was only a fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist now. There was still a huge gap between him and a Void Break Martial Artist.

The fact that he could enter the finals and even win a round was already enough to show his excellence.

If he wanted to win three consecutive rounds and enter the top eight… he probably needed luck the most.

“Right, Chu Nan, I just saw your competition recording. There’s something I find strange.” Fang Yuesheng had a straightforward personality and quickly put down his sigh before turning to ask. “Hmm? What’s strange?”

“That last punch of yours… Although I’m certain that you used your Internal Breath and it was very powerful, how could it beat that Rodman up until he can’t stand up? I don’t understand no matter how I think about it. Rodman isn’t that weak, right?”

“About that…” Chu Nan raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist. He thought for a moment and revealed a brilliant smile at Fang Yuesheng,” It’s a secret.”

Fang Yuesheng blinked and was immediately angry.

If this guy used other words to reject him, he could still continue to probe. However, he did not expect that he would directly throw out a ‘secret’. It was obvious that he did not want to tell him. How could he ask?

Seeing his expression, Chu Nan laughed and waved his hand. “In fact, I don’t even know what’s going on myself, so I can’t tell you the reason why you asked me to.”

“Really?”

“Really.”

Fang Yuesheng glared at Chu Nan. Seeing that he indeed did not intend to say anything, he could only shake his head and stop asking.

Exploring the secret of another martial artist was originally a little taboo. Even if the two of them were schoolmates, this was not acceptable.

After chatting for a while, Fang Yuesheng bade farewell and left to prepare for his next match.

Due to the fact that there was one less round of matches for those below the age of 20, the time to prepare in the middle was longer and he could continue to wait here.

Seeing Fang Yuesheng’s figure disappear outside the door, Chu Nan nodded and looked at his right hand. After pondering for a moment, he lowered his palm. At the same time, his Internal Breath circulated according to the trajectory of the Nine Revolutions Technique and entered his palm.

Bang!

His palm pressed on the wooden chair, and the chair immediately exploded as if there was a hidden explosive inside.

However, compared to the pitiful tree that Chu Nan had used as a test subject, this chair only exploded at the spot where his palm pressed down and the surrounding area. The other places barely remained intact.

If one looked through the surface, they would discover that the wooden patterns in the middle of the chair had already twisted into a mess, as if they were twisted together by a strange force. It looked extremely strange.

Chu Nan retracted his right hand with a strange expression.

This palm was the same as the last punch that struck the vital part of Rodman’s dantian in the competition. When he used his Internal Breath, he deliberately controlled his Internal Breath to a high-frequency vibration state.

In the end, this light palm strike directly smashed a huge hole in the extremely thick wooden chair under his butt. The punch just now completely made Rodman lose his resistance.

Even if Chu Nan had tested such a terrifying power many times in the past few days, he still found it unbelievable.

His Internal Breath maintained a high frequency vibration, causing such a terrifying destructive force.

Could this be… the true Internal Breath circulation method that the unknown senior mentioned?

However, why did such a high-frequency vibrating Internal Breath not cause any damage when it circulated in his meridians? Instead, it could simulate the pulse resonance to treat physical injuries?

Chu Nan could not understand the reason for this difference. After all, his knowledge regarding Internal Breath only came from the classroom of West Cloud Academy. Those teachers would not explain such a strange phenomenon.

“Forget it, it’s a good thing anyway.”

Chu Nan shrugged and stood up to leave the lounge that was specially prepared for him and Fang Yuesheng by West Cloud Academy. He walked towards the martial arts lounge for those under the age of 20.

He had only taken two steps when a young man in his thirties wearing glasses walked over.

“Hello, are you Chu Nan?”

Chu Nan looked at him in surprise and his gaze landed on the glasses on his nose.

Modern technology had long solved the problem of having short-sighted eyes. The only reason why people still wore glasses could only be to show the so-called “refined” and “knowledgeable” feeling.

However, this person had a shrewd and capable expression. No matter how one looked at it, it was impossible to associate him with the ancient term “weak scholar”. “I’m Chu Nan. You are…”

That person immediately smiled and said, “Let me introduce myself. I’m Yu Tingfeng. I’m the Director of the West Cloud Planet of the Orion Arm Branch of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce located at the Earth’s Federation’s branch office. This is my name card.”

Chu Nan was a little amused and curiously took the exquisite name card from the other party.

Not only was this guy wearing glasses, but he also used a name card, something that had been eliminated for many years. It was simply filled with an ancient charm. When compared to his appearance, it caused an extremely strong sense of strangeness.

The name card did reveal his identity, but Chu Nan did not have any concept of it. He was only a little curious.

“What do you want?”

“It’s like this.” Yu Tingfeng did not produce anything ancient this time. Instead, he operated the personal terminal on his wrist and displayed a few data reports through the virtual screen, “Excuse me, is this the physical data test report you obtained from the West Cloud Academy’s logistics rehabilitation center four days ago?”

Chu Nan stared at it in shock and nodded.

Then, he frowned and asked, “What? Didn’t your Noctem Chamber of Commerce always say that user privacy is the top priority? Why have you pulled out my private personal data? What do you want to do?”

Yu Tingfeng hurriedly waved his hand and said, “You’ve misunderstood. We don’t have any intention of revealing your private matters. It’s just that there are some problems with these data reports. We hope that you can cooperate with our Chamber of Commerce in an investigation.”

“Investigate?” Chu Nan looked at him in confusion, “Investigate what? Could it be that you still suspect that I’m faking my body’s data report? Is there a need for me to do that?”

“No, no, no. We definitely don’t doubt this. In fact, we originally suspected that it was the problem with the mainframe A.I. located in the logistics rehabilitation center of the West Cloud Academy. However, after investigation, the A.I. itself is fine, but these data… still carry some doubts. That’s why we found you. I hope you can cooperate with us to carry out some corresponding investigations.”

Chu Nan glanced at him. “Aren’t you saying that I have a problem?”

Yu Tingfeng paused for a moment and revealed an apologetic smile.

“Perhaps it’s because I used the word ‘investigation’ that you’re unhappy. Alright, I’ll reiterate it now. We only hope that you can help us resolve this problem. What do you think? Of course, we’ll compensate you for wasting your time and energy.”

“Compensation?” Chu Nan thought for a moment and his heart stirred.

The Noctem Chamber of Commerce was a huge entity located at the top of the Milky Way. Now that they had taken the initiative to find and ask him to help solve the problem, they definitely could not be too stingy.

Moreover… he had some doubts about the situation that day that they wanted to resolve. Perhaps, with the help of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce’s super technology, he could investigate the matter.

“Alright, I can help, but…” Chu Nan pointed at the arena in the distance, “As you can see, I don’t have time now.” “Understood.” Hearing Chu Nan’s agreement, Yu Tingfeng immediately smiled and pulled out his personal terminal to send a request to establish communication to him, “This is my contact number. After the competition ends and you feel that you have the time to help us resolve this problem, please contact me. Lastly, I wish you good luck in martial arts.”

Chu Nan exchanged his personal terminal communication account with him before Yu Tingfeng waved his hand and bade farewell.

Even after he walked far away, Chu Nan was still puzzled.

How could the Noctem Chamber of Commerce find him just because of a few physical statistics reports?

What the heck…
