“Got rejected?” In the vehicle, a young Martial Artist sitting beside Guo Qun said with a laugh.
“Yeah.” Guo Qun nodded and said.
“No problem. You’ve already been rejected many times anyway. Just keep at it!” That Martial Artist was also from the elite class. At this moment, he patted Guo Qun’s shoulder and comforted him.
Guo Qun nodded in agreement and said, “In this dual city assessment, I will strive to win the top three or even first place! I want to let Chen Xiwei know that I am qualified to stand beside her!”
When he said this, his face was resolute.
The convoy traveled through the wilderness. Along the way, they would occasionally encounter some Ferocious Beasts watching, but the vast majority, after seeing such a large convoy, showed fear and silently retreated.
After all, in this era, although humans had stepped down from being the apex predator, they were still not pushovers.
Human Martial Artists also possessed extraordinary strength.
A century of fighting had made many Ferocious Beasts deeply understand the ferocity, cunningness and cruelty of humans.
Of course, there were some Ferocious Beasts that still wanted to charge forward.
However, the convoy had powerful experts dispatched by the academy and base accompanying them. Among whom were Martial Masters. Under their escort, these Ferocious Beasts were quickly scared away. Those that did not manage to retreat had all died.
At noon, the convoy finally arrived at the outskirts of Mount Dashu.
Once they had arrived, the participating students sent by Changfeng Base also arrived one after another.
It was worth mentioning that among the students sent by Changfeng Base, there was a peculiar youth. This youth looked about eighteen or nineteen years old. He took the lead and as soon as he arrived, he showed a haughty expression as he swept his gaze around the entire place. He curled his lips in disdain and said, “Luyang Base is really losing its edge. There’s not even a single capable fighter!”
As soon as he said this, it immediately made the students of Luyang Base do a double take.
“What did you say!?”
“Actually daring to say such arrogant words, you really don’t know your place!”
“Are you looking for a beating?”
“You even dare to look down on us. Wait until the trial starts and let’s see how you eat your words!”
Those of Luyang Base scolded one after another in righteous indignation.
However, when they said this, they were met with sneers from the students of Changfeng Base.
“Spare us. You guys want to defeat Xu Guang? laughable!”
“Xu Guang is the strongest genius of our Changfeng Base. He possesses a High-Grade Saber Talent and is already a Mid-Stage Martial Artist. In the future, he has great hopes of becoming a Grandmaster. I heard your strongest is just a Martial Artist with Mid-Grade Sword Talent. What can you use to fight against our Xu Guang?”
“This is too funny. I’m afraid when we get to the wilderness, you won’t even be able to take a single strike from our Xu Guang!”
“Hahaha…”
The students of Changfeng Base were very arrogant.
And hearing this, all the Martial Artists of Luyang Base clenched their fists, full of rage.
But at the same time, their hearts were also filled with shock.
High-Grade Sword Talent!
This could indeed be called a true genius!
In the Luyang Base, even counting all the younger generation, they couldn’t find a single person with a High-Grade Cultivation Talent!
Therefore, although they were angry, they knew they were no match for Changfeng Base, so they could only forcibly swallow their anger.
Seeing this scene, the arrogant youth named Xu Guang from Changfeng Base snorted in disdain even more. “Just a bunch of ants! The championship of this dual city assessment is mine for sure!”
Before long, the half-month long dual city assessment trial had officially begun.
After the teacher finished reading the rules and rewards, with a command, “The assessment officially begins!”
As soon as those words fell, all the students entered the mountain forest respectively.
“Xiwei, let’s go in together!” A petite girl came up to Chen Xiwei and invited her.
Chen Xiwei thought for a moment and nodded.
The two entered the dense forest together and quickly disappeared from sight.
…
Meanwhile, Chu Mo didn’t know about the dual city assessment. During this period of time, Chu Mo had been fully immersed in cultivating.
Constantly fighting, constantly cultivating.
The results were satisfactory.
His Wind Splitting Blade and Luo Yan Steps had been cultivated to Level 2. Both his attacking power and agility had undergone earth-shattering changes compared to before.
Although his physical strength seemed to be the same, the current Chu Mo could instantly kill his past self!
This was growth! True growth
Inside the hole in the tree, Chu Mo slowly finished a set of Body Tempering Techniques and compressed the absorbed spiritual energy again and again. When this spiritual energy was completely integrated into his flesh, only then did he let out a long breath.
He originally planned to go out and kill Ferocious Beasts to obtain more Ferocious Beast Blood as usual.
But who knew.
Boom!
It was at this moment, he suddenly shook all over. The hairs on his body stood on end, and even his muscles and bones emitted a series of thundering sounds.
It was continuous and echoing, one after another.
“Body hair standing on end! Thundering sounds! Could this be…” Chu Mo’s expression changed. Without time to think carefully, he quickly drank another mouthful of Level 2 Ferocious Beast Blood, then directly started performing another set of Body Tempering Technique.
Again and again!
Chu Mo didn’t know how many sets of Body Tempering Techniques he performed, nor did he know how much time had passed.
When he came to his senses, he found that his body was shrouded in a layer of black grime, emitting a fishy and foul smell.
Inside his body was surging with powerful strength, constantly circulating in his limbs and bones.
He could feel that a certain shackle inside his body had been broken.
“Marrow Cleansing! And thundering Sounds! I’ve advanced to the Martial Artist Realm!” Clenching his fists, feeling the vigorous energy coursing through his whole body, Chu Mo revealed a smile.
His purpose in coming here this time was to advance to the Martial Artist Realm! Now that his goal had been achieved, this trip could have been marked as complete..
Not far away, there was a pond. Chu Mo swept his gaze and, finding no Ferocious Beast wanting in ambush. Thus, he jumped into the pond.
The pool water was cool, constantly washing his pores and cleaning the filth.
After taking a bath, Chu Mo took a nap.
The next morning, he woke up fully energized.
Chu Mo took his saber and began seeking out Ferocious Beasts to fight.
After becoming a Martial Artist, his strength had a tenfold increase.
First, his physical strength broke through the limit of 10,000 kilograms!
Second, his spiritual energy absorption speed, body recovery ability, and five senses were all enhanced!
Even the boost from his Talents had further increased!
“After breaking through 10,000 kilograms of strength, with the boost from my Lightning Element, my physical strength alone is enough to contend against Mid-Stage Martial Artists! But there’s still a gap with Late-Stage Martial Artists! Fortunately, this gap can be completely made up for with the speed boost from my Wind Element Talent! In short…”
Rip!
Chu Mo slashed the Mid-Tier Level 2 Ferocious Beast in front of him into two with one saber strike. Standing in place, he gazed and muttered, “I no longer need to fear Zhou Cheng!”
“It seems… It’s time to return to base!”
After cultivating to become a Martial Artist, the original Body Tempering Technique could no longer keep up with his cultivation progress and he needed to now change it with a higher grade Body Tempering Technique.
This also needed to be purchased at the big shops in the base.
Thinking this, Chu Mo collected the materials and blood from the Ferocious Beast and prepared to leave.
However, before leaving this place, Chu Mo still had one thing he needed to do!
