Global Evolution: I Super Double Up on my evolution-Chapter 412 - 201: Demon City’s Top Scholar? Instant Kill!_2

Among these four girls were An Shihua and Zhang Fei, both of whom Su Yan knew.

When Su Yan first saw such a small number of female contestants, he was rather surprised. Hasn’t the gap between males and females started to close after reaching the Legendary Level Category? Why is the ratio still so skewed?

But then he considered. It’s still early in the semester, and these are all first-year female students. The gender imbalance, a legacy of twelve years of compulsory evolutionary education, probably hasn’t rectified itself so quickly. I guess it won’t be until around graduation that the numbers slowly start to even out.

Soon, all the contestants arrived at the waiting area beside the Martial Arts Platform, quietly awaiting their turn to compete.

The competition consisted of five rounds, each an elimination match. This meant each round would eliminate half the contestants until a champion was decided. Since only the champion of the Newcomer Tournament was recognized, matchups were determined randomly. This meant it was possible for the two strongest newcomers to face each other in the very first round. Thus, while the final match might not always be the most spectacular, it would definitively decide the champion.

"First round, first match: Student Su Yan from the Institute of Beast Taming will duel Student Zhang Fei from the Institute of Qi and Blood!"

As soon as the host’s announcement ended, Zhang Fei’s expression in the waiting area changed dramatically. Su Yan, on the other hand, also seemed slightly surprised.

I’m actually in the first match, and my opponent is Zhang Fei... It really is true what they say: enemies are destined to meet... Zhang Fei, RIP... Su Yan offered a silent prayer for Zhang Fei in his heart.

Then, under everyone’s watchful gaze, he leaped into the air. His body descended slowly onto the Martial Arts Platform before him, making him the first to take the stage.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei, still in the waiting area, silently donned an expression of anguish and ascended the platform with heavy steps.

At the referee’s command, both contestants simultaneously pressed the ’ready’ buttons located behind them. The ten-second countdown quickly finished, and the battle was imminent.

"BANG!"

The match had barely begun—less than a second had passed—when a resounding THUD echoed. Zhang Fei, who had been on high alert just a moment before, was sent flying off the Martial Arts Platform by Su Yan’s kick, body and soul, defeated in an instant.

The referee was momentarily stunned, then declared loudly, "The winner, Student Su Yan!"

The spectators below watched Su Yan on the Martial Arts Platform, unfazed, showing little surprise. After all, Su Yan’s name had become renowned throughout Jing University over the past month. Everyone knew he was incredible, capable of instantly defeating even top contenders ranked within the top ten on the leaderboard. Thus, his instant victory over a first-year newcomer was hardly surprising.

In fact, if Su Yan *didn’t* win the championship through a series of instant victories, *that* would be the truly shocking and unexpected outcome.

In the remaining fifteen matches of the first round, over half concluded swiftly due to significant disparities in strength.

The contestants who successfully advanced to the next round:

Institute of Qi and Blood: 7

Institute of Spirit: 5

Institute of Derivation: 2

Institute of Beast Taming: 1

Institute of Plant Cultivation: 0

Teacher’s College: 0

These advancement results were largely consistent with previous years. The only difference was that a student from the Institute of Beast Taming had successfully advanced.

It should be noted that in past years, students from the Institute of Beast Taming, the Institute of Plant Cultivation, and the Teacher’s College were typically eliminated swiftly in the first round. After all, they were merely contestants brought in to fill the ranks, essentially serving as foils. Their inherent strength couldn’t compare to the other three evolutionary academies, which teemed with Evolution Strongmen. Therefore, it wasn’t surprising for students of this caliber to be eliminated so quickly in the first round.

Soon, the second round of competitions began.

This time, Su Yan’s opponent was a girl from the Institute of Derivation. She was quite attractive and had a good figure. Even her strength seemed quite impressive, as she had instantly defeated an opponent from the Institute of Qi and Blood in the first round. Her only apparent weakness was a somewhat timid personality. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Less than half a second after the referee spoke, the girl immediately forfeited and jumped off the platform, terrified of facing a beating from Su Yan.

Su Yan, still on the platform, was bewildered by the girl’s forfeiture. Am I really that scary? Did she have to forfeit and run off as if she’d seen a ghost? Seriously?

After these few internal complaints, Su Yan, who had successively beaten several female opponents on the high school Martial Arts Platform and then thrashed two more after starting university, stepped down from the platform with a troubled expression.

Watching him, An Shihua, in the waiting area, couldn’t help the corners of her mouth from twitching slightly. This dense guy is unbelievable! Why do you think the girl forfeited? Don’t you have any self-awareness? He should find time to go to Bilibili, look up the recording of the Nanjiang Province Evolutionary Science College Entrance Exam, and take a good, hard look at how he treated girls back then...

...

Before long, the second round of competitions also ended.

The eight contestants who successfully advanced:

Institute of Qi and Blood: 4

Institute of Spirit: 2

Institute of Derivation: 1

Institute of Beast Taming: 1

Among the contestants advancing to the third round, nearly half were familiar faces to Su Yan: Li Changxiao, An Shihua, and Chen Ziyao.
