Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

"Stop messing around!"

Fang Ranran directly slapped the shoulder of Nolan Wei, "I'm here to show Lin Rui around the martial arts club. If you, Nolan, want to exchange pointers, you can wait until Lin Rui has joined our martial arts club. There will be plenty of chances then."

The blond man Zhao Yan also spoke in a cold voice, "Nolan!"

Nolan Wei momentarily stared blankly before realizing that his behavior was inappropriate. He gave Lin Rui an embarrassed smile, "Then forget it, brother, no offense. I was just curious about what kind of person can defeat Wei De, one of the top ten figures from this batch of the Alien Body College. And to think he comes from a dump like Mingde Alien Body College—"

Having said that, Nolan Wei consciously covered his mouth.

Fang Ranran and the lady in professional attire stared at him fiercely, their gazes intense.

If you can't speak properly, then speak less!

The blond man Zhao Yan also facepalmed, looking helpless.

The chubby Wang Sen also glared at Nolan Wei indignantly.

How could this guy speak like that? Granted, Mingde Alien Body College was indeed terrible, but it was his alma mater.

"It's fine!" Lin Rui saw that this guy in front of him, despite his lack of tact, didn't seem to have bad intentions.

He shook his head and then looked around, "Where do we practice? How do we practice? Virtual combat or real combat? I'm also keen to see the skill level of our club's Deputy General."

Fang Ranran and the lady in professional attire were slightly stunned by his words, their expressions one of surprise.

Nolan Wei's eyes lit up, excited, "Let's have a real fight! With Sister Yu here as a great expert to keep an eye on us, there's no fear of accidents."

He caught hold of the rope at the edge of the ring and agilely flipped onto the platform, "You haven't implanted spiral veins, nor have you injected artificial serum, so I won't either. I'll just use my dantian and meridians to fight you. What weapon will you use, Lin Rui?"

Lin Rui felt his clothes being tugged by Wang Sen.

Wang Sen looked at him with urgent eyes, whispering, "Why did you agree to him? That guy has undergone blood replacement and his strength is at least that of a major!"

"No problem!" Lin Rui smiled and patted Wang Sen on the shoulder, then he too flipped up onto the platform, "I'm accustomed to using the Yanling Blade from the thunder-fire series!"

Lin Rui's thoughts were straightforward.

From the way that Miss Fang spoke and conducted herself, it was clear that she was a potential employer with plenty of promise, not only wealthy but also wielding many resources and showing sincerity.

He didn't mind showing off as much as he could in front of Fang Ranran to get as much leverage as possible, a better deal.

In Lin Rui's opinion, whether joining a company or Fang Ranran's martial arts club, it was essentially the same — selling his services; he had to make sure it sold for a good price.

The blond man Zhao Yan had already jumped off the platform, walked to the weapon rack nearby, picked up a Yanling Blade that emitted a dark red glow, and tossed it to Lin Rui from afar, "Try this blade."

Lin Rui caught the blade and weighed it, nodding in satisfaction, "This one will do."

This was a second-grade practice blade, the same weight as the one he usually used, but sturdier and more resilient. It could carry more force and also unleash more thunder-fire power.

"Then I'll start now!"

Nolan Wei couldn't wait any longer. He gripped his sword like a hungry lion ready to pounce, carefully looking for every exploitable gap in Lin Rui, "My foundational martial arts are similar to Wei De's, and I use the Instant Shadow Sword too! Please keep an eye on us, Sister Yu—"

Lin Rui's eyes suddenly understood, no wonder Nolan Wei was so interested in him; it turned out his foundational martial arts were the same as Wei De's.

```

Just as the professional beauty shed her jacket and climbed onto the ring with a helpless expression, Nolan Wei, like a shadow flickering instantly forward, dashed toward her.

Though Nolan Wei had promised not to use vascular implants or serums, his physical condition was still several times better than Lin Rui's!

Lin Rui, though he tried his best to overestimate his opponent, remained fully focused and on high alert to guard against him.

Yet, when Nolan Wei's sword light struck, Lin Rui nearly failed to defend himself.

Only when Nolan Wei's sword came to less than three inches from Lin Rui's forehead, did Lin Rui manage to parry the blow in a narrow escape.

Immediately after, a series of eye-dazzling sparks erupted between the two, as the blade and sword fiercely clashed near Lin Rui's body.

Nolan Wei moved with agile grace, his sword strokes were extremely fast and furious, and as he wielded his sword, it seemed as if strands of Sword Qi swirled around, dazzling the onlookers.

Lin Rui stuck to the old strategy he used against Wade, spinning his blade so tightly that it left no space uncovered, while his feet flickered with lightning speed, constantly moving across the ring to dodge Nolan Wei's sword light.

The difference was, this time he wielded the blade with both hands.

Nolan Wei's strength far surpassed his, exerting great pressure that could easily send Lin Rui's blade flying if he wasn't careful.

Despite appearing a bit disheveled at this point, he still managed to neutralize each of Nolan Wei's attacks.

"The standard is really high!"

The blonde Zhao Yan watched the two on the stage: "Nolan Wei's first sword strike used only twenty percent of his power. However, right now, among those so-called ten elites, I estimate that only four could block it. His Red Thunder Saber has reached the Grandmaster level, definitely at the elite ten's level. No wonder he could defeat Wade, it's a pity his physical conditioning is a bit lacking."

Fang Ranran's lips curved slightly upwards: "I've checked his records for buying genetic enhancement fluids. Guess what? He's only purchased Type 1 enhancement fluid twice in three years, and it wasn't until yesterday when he made it to the top eleven in actual combat, that he received an award of three doses from the college! Also, the way he defeated Wade was with the Red Thunder Snake Hand."

After hearing this, although Zhao Yan's face remained calm, his heart was surging.

Just three doses of genetic enhancement fluids and he has trained his body and spiritual power to this extent?

And 'Red Thunder Snake Hand', employing this technique requires one to achieve Great Achievement Realm in both Red Thunder Palm and Thunder Fire Stance simultaneously!

He nodded: "That indeed shows limitless potential. His blade speed is almost half the speed of Nolan Wei's, but the efficiency is nearly as good. This is the hallmark of a top-tier talent. It seems the mainstay of the martial arts society is already in place for the future."

Each stroke of Lin Rui's blade served a purpose, unlike Nolan Wei, whose sword, though fast, had nearly half of its movements without any effect – that was where the difference in their efficiency lay.

"The deal isn't sealed yet. His family situation is probably quite bad, he's eager for money, and now he's more inclined toward alien body companies."

Fang Ranran shook her head slightly: "And as you said, Lin Rui's physical condition is quite poor and does not meet the standards for participating in the martial arts competition. In the next two years, the martial arts club will still have to rely on Senior Zhao to carry the load."

Lin Rui's martial arts realm might be high, but honestly, both his spiritual power and physical condition weren't really that impressive.

Those 'elite ten', each one of them has been nurtured with top-grade drugs from a young age, terrifying in all aspects of their physical qualities.

Don't be deceived by Wade's loss to Lin Rui; that was in a virtual combat environment where both their physical conditions were the same.

In a real environment, Wade could use his higher speed and greater strength to defeat Lin Rui, and college martial arts league matches are all about real combat with real weapons in the real world.

Besides, the standard of martial arts in college differs from high school. The mainstream levels are that of captain and major, and some exceptional talents could even reach the levels of lieutenant colonel and colonel during their college years!

Lin Rui has not yet implanted any artificial vascular networks. Strictly speaking, he is still at the rank of warrant officer in conditioned martial arts. How could he compete against those experts?

It was just as Fang Ranran's words fell that the situation on the ring suddenly changed.
