Permanent Martial Arts

Chapter 195: Virtual Combat System

The Nine Sages all cast their projections. Looking at the dense crowd below, the Nine Sages all appeared very calm.

“Sage Bingyu, let’s begin.” Elder Kang said calmly.

Sage Bingyu also nodded at a Deputy Dean of the Polar Academy. That Deputy Dean was also a dignified Divine Martial Artist with a respected status, but in front of the Nine Sages, he did not dare to be anything less than respectful.

“The Global Martial Arts Competition begins now!”

“There are a great number of participants, up to tens of thousands of martial artists. Moreover, once they fight at full force, casualties are inevitable. Therefore, we have decided to employ the most advanced Virtual Combat System for this Global Martial Arts Competition!

“This Virtual Combat System is currently the most advanced virtual system of humans. It can perfectly imitate any power in a martial artist’s body, including the strength of the physical body, Astral Power, innate abilities, weapons, and so on. It’s almost identical to strength in reality without any deviations. Therefore, feel free to fight to your best ability in the Virtual Combat System.”

Hearing the host say that they would use the Virtual Combat System to fight, everyone was very surprised. This was because they had not received any news beforehand. This was probably extremely confidential news.

“Is the Virtual Combat System really that miraculous?”

“Our Myriad Academy does have a combat system, but it doesn’t seem to be very practical for martial artists who have broken the genetic lock or above. It can’t perfectly simulate their own strength.”

“Is this system really that advanced?”

“There are also benefits to using the Virtual Combat System. It can at least accommodate tens of thousands of martial artists for battle at the same time. Otherwise, if we fight one by one, wouldn’t the Global Martial Arts Competition take a very long time?”

“I wonder what the rules of the Virtual Combat System are?”

Some people questioned it, while others were thinking of countermeasures. However, there was no doubt that many people were not confident about using the Virtual Combat System to fight.

At this moment, Sage Bingyu suddenly said, “This Virtual Combat System is completely different from before. Everyone, do not worry. After entering the Virtual Combat System, participating martial artists can try it out first. If you have any doubts, you can raise them immediately.”

Updates by

With Sage Bingyu speaking personally, the discussions below gradually subsided.

Beside her, Sage Kang said with a smile, “It wasn’t easy for Sage Yuanyi and I to obtain this system from that ancient ruin. That ancient ruin should be left behind by a technological civilization, and it’s much stronger than our virtual system. After several years of improvement, there won’t be any problems.”

“That’s right. The limit of this system’s simulation is a Divine Realm expert! Therefore, there would be no problem at all simulating these Metamorphic Realm martial artists.”

Sage Yuanyi nodded as well. He and Sage Kang had spent many years entering that ruin. Although they had obtained a lot of “technology”, this virtual system was their greatest gain.

With the help of this Global Martial Arts Competition, if it succeeded, it wouldn’t even be a problem to promote it globally.

Then, the Deputy Dean of Polar Academy announced the start of the Global Martial Arts Competition. The martial artists walked into the open space in the square, one after another.

However, Lin Feng was a little worried.

He did not expect that the Global Martial Arts Competition would actually be conducted through the Virtual Combat System. If he had known earlier, he would not have participated. No matter how much 10,000 merit value was worth, he did not want to risk being exposed.

Since the Virtual Combat System could perfectly simulate the Astral Power, innate abilities, and other powers in a martial artist’s body, would the Virtual Combat System be able to simulate the 80,000 strands of Astral Power in his body as well? Then, Lin Feng would no longer be able to keep any of his secrets.

“Longbetham, quick, think of something. If there’s really no other way, I’ll forfeit and not participate in this martial arts competition.”

Lin Feng was very anxious. As he watched the martial artists enter the square one after another, the time had arrived for him to make a decision.

“Do not worry, it is just a Virtual Combat System. Your Sages must have obtained this system after they discovered some ancient ruins, perhaps the ruins of a technological civilization. If it were anything else, I might not be able to do anything. However, it is merely a virtual system. You can enter the Virtual Combat System without worry. I will help you to conceal the abnormality in your body, and only maintain the amount of Astral Power for the Third Level of Metamorphic Realm.” Longbetham finally responded.

Lin Feng’s heart rejoiced, but he was still a little uneasy.

“Longbetham, can you really handle that Virtual Combat System?”

“Of course. I am a great mechanical lifeform! A mere virtual system is nothing.”

Seeing how confident Longbetham was, Lin Feng could only choose to trust Longbetham now. Otherwise, withdrawing from the competition at the last minute would probably arouse suspicion instead.

More than 30,000 participating martial artists entered the square. If this was like the previous Virtual Battle Chamber, they would at least need virtual cabins. However, how could more than 30,000 virtual cabins be installed in the square at once?

“Everyone, pay attention. Focus. The Virtual Combat System will be activated immediately.”

As soon as the Deputy Dean finished speaking, countless things that looked like headlights appeared in the sky above the square, emitting a gentle white light. When the white light enveloped all the participating martial artists in the square, all their bodies shook.

Swoosh.

Lin Feng’s vision turned black. He felt as if he was in an “arena” with a special environment.

“This is the Virtual Combat System?”

Lin Feng was a little curious. He had also entered the Virtual Battle Chamber of the Myriad Academy before, but the feeling this gave him was very realistic, far more realistic than that in the Myriad Academy.

Although the Virtual Battle Chamber of the Myriad Academy was also a virtual system, basically everyone who entered could clearly feel that it was virtual.

Now, even though Lin Feng knew that this was also a virtual system, he could not distinguish the “illusory” aspects of it. This was even more realistic than reality.

“Eh? The Astral Power in my body, my physical strength, and my innate abilities… They’ve all been perfectly simulated!”

Lin Feng was really surprised. His innate abilities came from the genes of five dire beasts, yet they could actually be perfectly simulated by the Virtual Combat System. It was really amazing.

As for Astral Power, it had also been simulated, but there were only 9,999 strands. Longbetham must have done something to make the system “mistakenly believe” that Lin Feng only had 9,999 strands of Astral Power.

As for the principle behind it, it was too profound. Lin Feng did not know either. Moreover, he did not need to know it so clearly. As long as the Astral Power in his body was not exposed, it was the best outcome for him.

The other martial artists were just like Lin Feng. They were all very surprised. They also tried to use some of their strength, and found that it was almost identical to reality. No one raised any doubts.

“Please read the rules of the martial arts competition carefully. The Global Martial Arts Competition will officially begin in five minutes!”

A pleasant mechanical female voice sounded in Lin Feng’s ears. It must be the voice of the Virtual Combat System. At the same time, several rules of the martial arts competition appeared in front of Lin Feng.
