Chapter 99
's training is over, and the absolute first and third rewards await!
Chapter 99 training session complete, absolute first place, triple reward (5k)
Deep within Li Xijun's consciousness, atop the lake of his heart.
That soul-shaking dragon's roar of death transformed into a thick, filthy sea of blood, which crashed back in!
The crimson tide instantly submerged the once clear lake of the heart, and countless twisted vengeful spirits floated and wailed in the blood waves, emitting piercing screams.
In the center of the sea of blood, a colossal creature raised its ferocious head.
At this moment, the venomous dragon's body seemed to be pieced together from congealed dark red blood and stark white bones, shrouded in endless deathly aura.
Two enormous dragon eyes, like two blood moons burning with black flames, were fixed on the tiny figure in the center of the heart lake.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill—!!!"
The roar of the poisonous dragon madly assaulted his reason, threatening to shatter his self and merge him into the eternal torrent of slaughter, turning Li Xijun into a complete sword slave of the "Seven Killing Styles of the Lifeless Killing Sword".
However, Li Xijun stood atop the raging sea of blood, his figure as steadfast as a reef.
His mind had already entered a state of "embryonic breathing."
No matter how raging the sea of blood,
Let your vengeful spirits wail,
No matter how surging your killing intent,
That insane killing intent was enough to shake the very soul of a cultivator in the Forgetfulness Realm.
In this tranquil peace, as if at the beginning of the universe, when all things were silent, there is no meaning whatsoever.
Until an unknown amount of time had passed,
A crimson sun emerged from the sea of blood.
The sun rises over the East China Sea, its magnificent light melting away all the murderous intent.
"laugh!"
There was no earth-shattering explosion, only the piercing sound of melting.
The surging sea of blood, the intent of death, was like boiling water poured on snow, being purified, disintegrated, and annihilated inch by inch at a speed visible to the naked eye!
A pure and sincere radiance transformed into a pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth, firmly suppressing the raging, venomous dragon.
no doubt,
Having achieved the Fetal Breathing Realm, Li Xijun subdued this deadly poisonous dragon with ease.
If he hadn't obtained the higher-level "Sword of No Life - White Tiger Style", it might have ended there.
But now, subduing this deadly dragon is only the beginning!
As Li Xijun recalled the detailed explanations of "The Sword of No Life and Death - White Tiger Style," he easily mastered this sword technique.
[Your skill level in "The Sword of No Life - White Tiger Style" has increased from 0% to 1%.]
A star map of the Western White Tiger constellation appeared in the depths of his mind.
The seven constellations of the White Tiger in the west are: Kui, Lou, Wei, Mao, Bi, Zi, and Shen.
These seven most important stars were lit up.
A somewhat ethereal-looking divine beast, a white tiger, leaped out from among the seven stars.
It immediately pounced on the firmly suppressed death dragon, instinctively tearing and devouring it wantonly.
With each bite taken by the white tiger, the dying venomous dragon let out a mournful cry of resentment, yet under the suppression of its soul at the Fetal Breath Realm, it could not move an inch.
Gradually, the enormous body made of blood and bones was completely devoured by the white tiger's bites.
The previously ethereal white tiger figure became increasingly clear.
More and more stars in the sky are being lit up.
Your mastery of the "Lifeless Killing Sword - White Tiger Style" has improved from 100% beginner to 1% proficient.
As the final message notification sounded...
Having completely devoured the poisonous dragon, the white tiger raised its head and let out a roar towards the cosmos.
An incomparably pure killing intent emanated from the air, transforming into this sword technique that could kill and injure both the user and the enemy, annihilating life and soul.
————【White Tiger Seven Killings Style】!
During the time Li Xijun subdued the poisonous dragon and practiced the White Tiger Seven Kills sword technique,
Many people didn't notice that some second-year students seemed to have been prepared all along, forming teams of five to hunt mythical creatures.
These people seemed to have known all along that they would be experiencing the mythical world today.
The members of each team were assigned very reasonably, and they had obviously had a period of practice and coordination, which made them much more efficient at killing monsters than the freshmen who were fighting alone.
This made many freshmen secretly anxious.
And on the other side,
After several squad members led some mythical creatures with a life level of 14 into a canyon terrain.
Soon, several other squads will appear from behind to block the canyon entrance, forming a clear encirclement tactic in this terrain.
A wave of mythical creatures with a life level of 14.0 to 14.9 were quickly turned into corpses by the barrage of arrows shot from above and the combined attack of swords, shields, and spears from the front and back, resulting in a significant increase in their score.
This instantly excited the second-year students in the canyon, boosting their morale.
"Brother Hao, the information you provided is absolutely amazing!"
"Yeah, this time it's not just our sophomore group that's guaranteed to win, all of us brothers can make it into the top 100!"
"While solo training is good for martial artists, forming a team is obviously more efficient at racking up points."
"That's amazing, Hao-ge! How did you know in advance that we'd be coming to this mythical world for training, and how did you manage to get your hands on this monster-hunting map?"
Hearing the praise from everyone, Zhang Hao, with a smug look on his face, said:
"To tell you the truth, my sister joined the student council a while ago."
"The student council members already knew all about this kind of information."
His words drew envious glances from many people around him, and many were extremely excited.
"Holy crap, a student council member!"
"That's incredible, Hao-ge! Your sister actually got into the student council!"
"Brother Hao, when we're juniors, won't we be able to get the best training missions?"
In this world of martial arts
The student council of Martial Arts University holds a prestigious position within the university.
Especially, student council members at universities like Qingquan Chunhui Hall,
Almost all of them were outstanding individuals, and there were even rumors that they were all potential candidates for outdoor filming.
Many school plans and decisions allow student council members to sit in and offer suggestions.
The university is cooperating with various external forces.
The training missions issued to students who have reached the Great Perfection of the Mortal Realm are also led by the Student Council.
Many tasks with generous academic rewards are given priority to student council members.
Therefore, even within the Qingquan Chunhui Hall, student council members were considered a privileged class, a high-end circle.
"As for the mission, it depends on the situation. My sister is about to prepare for the [Global National Games]. If she can get an excellent ranking, this little privilege will be a piece of cake."
Zhang Hao's words drew gasps from many people, who became even more enthusiastic towards him.
After enjoying the praise for a while, he immediately signaled for everyone to be quiet and said:
"Alright, let's talk about chatting later, after we win this faction war and get the points. We can brag about that when we get back."
"There are still 6 hours left in the training. Let's keep up the good work and try to catch up with them in terms of star rating, securing victory!"
At this point, Zhang Hao, who possessed a strong leadership presence, adopted a more stern tone:
"Pass on what I just said to them."
"From now on, everyone must focus on the fight. No one is allowed to pop champagne halfway through the competition until the trial is over!"
"To achieve mastery of the [External Body] as soon as possible, we must secure every single point!"
As time goes by,
There are only two hours left in this mythical world adventure.
The senior students in the second-year camp were all excited, and they couldn't help but look forward to the points they would get after their camp's victory.
Whether it's cultivating in the seven secret realms of the world, or exchanging for spiritual springs, spiritual marrow pills, or other rare and precious materials, they are all good things that can quickly improve one's cultivation level.
Meanwhile, the freshmen in the first year group turned on the green projection.
Freshman camp: 5064
Sophomore camp: 4989
Seeing the almost non-existent gap between the two camps on the list,
They sighed inwardly.
With that, the opponent's 1.2 weighting multiplied by their original star rating basically guarantees a win.
Many of the new students wanted to fight again, but after spending a long time walking, hiding, fighting, and surviving in the mythical world, they were exhausted.
Moreover, it seems that to defeat the second-tier faction, one only needs to gain nearly 1000 stars.
This is almost unbelievable in just a few hours.
Thinking about this, many people felt a sense of helplessness and sighed.
While looking at our team's leaderboard, seeing that name that had been sliding from first place without any change, I couldn't help but wonder:
"Chief, what happened to him?"
"Why has everything suddenly stopped moving?"
"If he hadn't disappeared in the middle and had maintained that terrifying scoring speed, maybe we could have won?"
Many students thought this way and sighed even more.
same,
At this moment, in the monitoring room of the aircraft high in the sky,
Li Xijun's vice principal, Lisa, and four other teachers were observed almost every so often.
Looking at the boy sitting cross-legged under the tree with his eyes slightly closed in the picture, I was also filled with doubt.
If they hadn't seen the flying sword constantly circling around Li Xijun, protecting its master...
Lisa was about to go down and check on his condition.
"Is it because you unleashed too much mental energy?" Mona asked worriedly.
"Could it be some kind of spiritual insight?" Mo Cheng speculated, looking at Li Xijun sitting cross-legged in the video.
"The matter of spiritual practitioners is hard to say."
Ding Yao looked at Li Xijun on the screen and was also very worried.
I hope something bad has happened to this genius.
Fortunately,
After the scene changed and surveyed the area,
When Lisa switched back to Li Xijun to check the situation...
On the prosecution screen,
The boy, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
The terrifying killing intent that had been present when he was slaughtering mythical creatures had completely dissipated.
This gave the whole thing a strange, indescribable quality.
"It could be something like a sudden breakthrough or enlightenment in mental power."
Seeing the change in Li Xijun, the female principal suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"White Tiger Seven Killings Formation."
The terrifying sword strike echoed in my mind.
Li Xijun grew increasingly curious about its power.
He also did not forget the importance of this experience in the mythical world.
When he turned on the projector and looked at the scores of both sides, and saw his own ranking had dropped considerably, he turned his gaze to the area not far away, where there was a clear canyon.
"Time is running out."
"Given the current situation, I want to get back to first place as quickly as possible and claim the rewards for winning the team."
"All I have to do is fight against opponents of higher levels and get a 5-star or even 10-star rating from a mythical creature."
Li Xijun's gaze grew increasingly resolute.
"Perhaps with my current cultivation level of only the Fetal Breathing Realm, I might not have dared to fight against a mythical creature with a life level of 14.0."
"But now that I have mastered this terrifying sword technique capable of annihilating even the soul,"
"Then let's see just how strong I really am now!"
With the help of his mental power, he rushed into the canyon where a large number of mythical creatures gathered at an extremely fast speed, like a cannonball.
Area of Life Level 14
Even though most of the second-year students felt they had it in the bag,
However, under Zhang Hao's call, they still maintained a cautious and steady approach, continuing to lure monsters and farm them as a team.
As the various martial artists who had been scattered across the battlefield ran back in their respective directions...
The mythical creatures behind them, resembling lizardmen with black scales, hissed and gathered together, rushing towards the canyon they had fled from.
Seeing that a large group of students had arrived, Zhang Hao perked up and quickly called on the other students to prepare for a tough battle of encirclement.
But just as everyone was ready to fight those mythical creatures once again,
A figure dressed in standard combat armor entered everyone's field of vision.
Whether it's these second-year students,
It was still those same lizardman mythical creatures, gathered together, their aura and fighting spirit clearly even more ferocious.
Everyone's attention was focused on this suddenly appearing third party.
"Holy crap, has this freshman lost his mind?! Quick, stop him!"
Seeing Li Xijun rapidly approaching the lizardmen whose life levels were all above 14.0,
Zhang Hao shouted at the top of his lungs.
In his eyes, this freshman wearing the standard freshman armor was practically courting death.
It's important to understand that each level increase in the Transcendent Realm represents a significant difference.
A life level 13 person's strength is only 5000 kilograms.
However, once the life level breaks through to level 14, it becomes a terrifying 8000 kilograms.
The enormous power difference between the two is enough for a martial artist with a life level of 14 to instantly kill someone with a life level of 13.
And this new student is none other than the rumored genius Li Xijun, who has already reached the age of 12.
Even when facing a mythical creature with a life level of 14, it is impossible to withstand a single blow from it.
Li Xijun's reckless charge, single-handedly attacking the lizardmen...
In the eyes of Zhang Hao and other senior students, he had simply lost his mind and wanted to die.
He would rather abandon the original encirclement than not quickly lead his men to try and stop the other side.
after all,
Both sides are students from the same school, so this kind of rivalry is normal competition.
They can't just watch their junior die and refuse to help, can they?
But in the next instant,
Zhang Hao and the other sophomores all stopped in their tracks.
I see,
Li Xijun, who was assisted by mental power,
They had already attacked from above, heading down at the large group of lizardmen gathered below.
At this moment, he drew his sword mid-air, striking upwards and downwards with a fierce, powerful, and unstoppable force.
The Sword of No Life - White Tiger Seven Killings Style!
In an instant,
The silent old mother that Li Xijun had been visualizing opened her eyes, revealing a sorrowful and desolate appearance.
The white and gold-patterned magic sword held in his right hand shone brightly, revealing the words "White Emperor" on its blade.
Stars lit up above the sea of consciousness.
The stars Kui, Lou, Wei, Mao, Bi, Zi, and Shen intertwined, transforming into a phantom image of a white tiger.
With this sword light leaping out, all living beings were slaughtered!
"roar!"
The tiger's roar echoed throughout the entire area, causing everyone to stop in their tracks, their souls trembling, their minds going blank.
Enveloped by the sword light, the level 14 lizardman mythical creatures, whose life force was being slain by the white tiger,...
At the same time, the sound of them falling to the ground with a "thud" rang out continuously. They had already lost all their life force and their souls had dissipated, turning into corpses!
Having completed the kills and gained points, Li Xijun left without a second thought, drawing his sword.
That sight made Zhang Hao and the others, who were already stunned, involuntarily recall a very famous poem from the old days:
"He can kill one man in ten steps, leaving no trace for a thousand miles!"
now,
Countless freshmen sighed as they looked at their star ratings and faction star ratings.
Suddenly, one person's name jumped up and reclaimed the number 1 spot in the freshman rankings.
Furthermore, the star rating he just gained is
"270 stars?"
"Wait! Is this equipment malfunctioning?"
"That's 270 stars!"
"Chief, what kind of mythical creature did you kill?"
Towards the end of the competition, the freshmen, who were almost all looking at the rankings, felt like they were going crazy.
Even if Li Xijun went to kill a mythical creature with a life level of 14, which was two levels higher than his own, he would still have to kill 27 of them that time!
This was beyond everyone's imagination.
And this is just the beginning.
As Li Xijun continued his killing spree,
His star rating is rising at an astonishing rate.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone in both the freshman and sophomore groups, they broke through the 1000 mark in one go.
At the very last moment of this mythical world trial, he achieved an outrageous record of 1500 stars.
He single-handedly carried the entire freshman class to victory in this faction competition.
Everyone was stunned.
The four teachers in the control room looked at each other in bewilderment.
At this point, they no longer cared about trivial matters like the freshman and sophomore team competitions.
Instead, they were thinking about just how monstrous the combat power of this prodigy who entered the university with a perfect score really was.
"Ahem, Nana, you know, I've always wanted to teach with more energetic freshmen."
Ding Yao revealed a charming smile:
"Could you tell me which class Li Xijun is in now? I want to find a way to replace his advisor so we can all climb the social ladder together!"
She was trying to make empty promises, to which Mona and instructor Mo Cheng both rolled their eyes.
Didn't you see how much the vice principal values Li Xijun?
Still thinking of sucking up to someone powerful? Principal Lisa has probably already placed a huge bet. Do you think you can even get a share?
For this,
Lisa, whose mind was already blank and whose breathing was rapid, didn't care at all what these people were saying.
Having witnessed Li Xijun's true fighting prowess, her mind was filled with thoughts of...
How can we ensure he makes the most efficient use of the triple reward points he receives for resource exchange?
She had a premonition that as long as Li Xijun could successfully complete his transformation into a mortal, by the time he was a junior in college...
That year's Global National Championship will be a foregone conclusion!
