High-Level Martial Era

Watching the military video that Teacher Xu Bo showed him, Li Yuan's originally tense heart also relaxed quite a bit, and he wasn't so worried.

A little past nine in the evening.

After finishing four boxes of nutritional meals and taking a bottle of basic Qi and blood potion, Li Yuan finally felt most of his hunger dissipate and his body's sense of fatigue recover substantially.

"Indeed, it wasn't wrong."

"When people are hungry, they only think about eating," Li Yuan sighed inwardly, "Once satiated, all sorts of miscellaneous thoughts come flooding in."

Li Yuan was even more worried about his uncle.

He packed up his things.

"Teacher, I'm heading home," Li Yuan said.

"Hmm, get everything ready when you get back," Xu Bo said, "Tomorrow afternoon, we'll head out to Jiangbei Martial Arts University."

"Yes."

... Li Yuan walked out of the elite building with others following.

"I hope Li Yuan isn't too badly affected," Xu Bo watched as Li Yuan walked out of the school gate, "With his Spear Technique breakthrough to the Fourth Level, as long as he performs normally, he should be able to make it onto the special training list for Kunlun University."

"Once he gets past this, the road ahead will be much smoother."

Xu Bo well knew that Li Yuan's cultivation was different from ordinary people; he needed a large amount of resources to support it.

He must strive to get into the core layer of the top five universities.

...

It was nearly ten o'clock when Li Yuan finally got home, his younger brother and sister had already gone to sleep.

His aunt looked as usual, changing her story to comfort Li Yuan.

Telling Li Yuan not to worry, just to focus on preparing for the invitation event at Jiangbei Martial Arts University.

"Alright, as long as uncle is fine, I will definitely strive to secure a spot on the special training list," Li Yuan said.

He didn't break through his aunt's lies.

Li Yuan knew that his aunt's reluctance to tell him the truth was also for fear of affecting his assessment at the invitation event of Jiangbei Martial Arts University.

"Tomorrow."

"I will head to Jiangbei Martial Arts University," Li Yuan returned to his room and went through his cultivation as per routine.

He was not in the least bit complacent about his Spear Technique advancing to the Fourth Level.

On the contrary.

Having witnessed the power of a Flying Heaven Warrior, feeling the helplessness of his uncle being in danger, Li Yuan's motivation to cultivate was stronger than ever before.

Persistent and steady accumulation is the foundation of great achievements.

[Your life level has increased from 8.8 to 8.9.]

[Your Fist Technique, from...]

[Your speed, from...] The Divine Palace panel issued three consecutive reminders.

"Fist Technique breakthrough to the Fourth Level."

"Today, Spear Technique also entered the Fourth Level, I have perfect control over the vigor in my body, uncovering deeper potential, and cultivating the Basic Cultivation Method has indeed increased efficiency," Li Yuan nodded to himself.

Originally, his cultivation efficiency was already faster than that of most students in the elite class.

In the future, it will only be faster.

...

After one in the morning, while Li Yuan was still cultivating the "Observing the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture" at home.

In the Guan Mountain District, Starry Sky South Lake Residential District.

The name of the district is quite common, but in reality, it is one of the most top-tier residential districts in Guan Mountain District, let alone the entire Jiang City.

Because, those who live here are families of Martial Artists from the Starry Sky Martial Hall, and at least a Level 15 Warrior.

To the east side of the district is the most expansive, manor-like super-large detached villa, with extremely strict security, not just guards on duty, but also combat robots patrolling.

On an adjacent lawn, there is also a flying vehicle parked.

Inside the villa's basement, there is a thousand square meter large Martial Arts Hall, extremely luxurious, with all sorts of technological facilities available, even a sixty-meter 'speed testing runway'.

In the center of the Martial Arts Room.

A girl dressed in red exercise gear had her eyes tightly closed.

"Boom~" Waves of intense heat, resembling dancing flames, kept emerging around her, then condensed behind her back.

Gradually, behind the girl, the vague form of a flame phoenix tree took shape.

On the phoenix tree, the phantom of a firebird seemed to circle and dance, elusive and indistinct.

"This?"

"My little sister?" The young man in a blue Martial Path suit standing to the side was shockingly watching this scene, "The Burning Body Phoenix Tree, Phoenix Soul Refining."

"My little sister actually fulfilled the requirements of the 'Nirvana Divine Scripture' before she turned eighteen," the young man was dumbfounded.

Even though father had tasked him with checking on her, saying she'd likely awaken someday.

However, the young man hadn't quite believed it before he came.

Because, from a young age.

Aside from her perseverance in training, his little sister did not compare to himself and his elder brother back then.

"Father really does see things clearly," the young man muttered to himself.

Seconds and minutes ticked by.

The young man patiently waited.

His little sister meeting the requirements for cultivating the "Nirvana Divine Scripture" meant a guaranteed smooth future, and as her brother, he naturally felt joy.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

The swathes of red light gradually merged into Lin Lanyue's body, causing her expressions to show slight pain, but she gritted her teeth and endured it.

Lin Lanyue could clearly feel an astonishing transformation taking place inside her body.

It was like a leap in life level.

Finally, everything calmed down.```

```

"Huh!" Lin Lanyue gradually returned to normal, only her skin had become more rosy, and a faint flame mark appeared on her forehead.

As the flame mark slowly merged into her forehead, she also opened her eyes.

"Me? My physical quality." Lin Lanyue gently clenched her fists, feeling the significant transformation of her body, and couldn't help but look towards the young man in the distance, "Second brother?"

"Your physical quality was already at 9.6 levels before; now, it must have surpassed 10.0 levels, reaching the threshold requirement for an Entry Rank Martial Artist," the young man said with a smile.

"Improvement this fast? Won't it affect my future?" Lin Lanyue hesitated.

She knew that many treasures that quickly enhance one's strength in a short period could actually consume one's life potential, limiting future achievements.

"No."

"What you took was the 'Crimson Sky Fire Marrow Crystal' that mother had someone send from Feixing, along with the 'Solar Phoenix Bloodstone' that father helped you refine into your body a few years ago. They perfectly complement each other," the young man said with a smile: "Their main function is to promote a second awakening of your Spiritual Nature."

"In fact, most of the power of these two treasures has not yet been unleashed. As you continue to practice in the future, they will naturally exert their effects gradually."

Lin Lanyue nodded slightly.

All this time, she seldom took basic qi and blood potions and other auxiliary cultivation drugs.

But as her body matured completely, the speed of improvement in her physical quality became faster and faster.

The most important reason was the foundation-building treasure left inside her by her father.

"Second brother, did I just succeed?" Lin Lanyue couldn't help asking.

"Yes," he said.

The young man expressed his feelings: "Just as father predicted, you have met the requirements to practice the 'Nirvana Divine Scripture'."

"I really don't get it."

"Both big brother and I attempted a second awakening of Spiritual Nature and failed. We could only continue practicing the 'Blazing Flame Burning Cultivation Method,' and even now, we are still 29th level Prime Warriors." The young man shook his head with a wry smile: "If mother knew that you had met the requirements to practice the 'Nirvana Divine Scripture,' she'd be very happy."

"Mother?" Lin Lanyue's eyes dimmed; she hadn't seen her mother for many years.

Father and big brother were also busy.

Only the second brother would occasionally come to see her.

"What about father? Why didn't he come today?" Lin Lanyue couldn't help asking.

"He went to the Rob Sea," the young man said solemnly: "The situation there is intense. The country conjectures that with the aliens being so aggressive, the likelihood of the Rob Sea Star Realm's entrance expanding into a 'Third Level Star Realm' is very high."

Third Level Star Realm?

Lin Lanyue was shocked; she understood what that meant.

In the whole Blue Star, there were several Second Level Star Realms, but only one Third Level Star Realm had appeared so far.

Another Third Level Star Realm? And within the territory of Xia Country?

It would undoubtedly be a disaster.

"No wonder the country has directly issued a second-level war alert," Lin Lanyue thought to herself.

"Therefore, the Martial Arts Department has specially communicated with father, requesting him to go there," the young man said. "If it really comes to the most dangerous moment,"

"Only a strong man like father could prevent the frontline situation from completely collapsing."

Lin Lanyue nodded slightly; she knew her father's significance to the country.

"Little sister."

"You handle this well; I must leave in a bit," the young man smiled: "In the following few months, you'll need to work harder."

"Get a good result,"

"Once the college entrance exam is over, the family's review team will come," the young man advised.

"You've just arrived, and now you're leaving?" Lin Lanyue frowned.

"I'm the boss of the department. With so many people waiting for me, surrounding me, how can I stop completely?" The young man said affectionately as he patted the girl's head: "Don't worry, once the matter with the Penglai Star Realm is settled, I'll come back to see you."

"If there's anything, we can also communicate via virtual network."

"Mm, I got it, don't worry," Lin Lanyue said with a smile.

She really didn't want her second brother to leave, but she knew the priorities.

...

March 14th, Saturday, 2 PM.

Guan Mountain District's first high school.

While other students were practicing in the Martial Arts Room,

a vice-principal, Xu Bo, and the senior grade director had brought Li Yuan, Lin Lanyue, Gu Qianghan, and ten other students to stand at the sports field, waiting.

Li Yuan, Gu Qianghan, and the others were carrying bags on their backs.

"Li Yuan, have you been to Jiangbei Martial University before?" Gu Qianghan asked in a low voice.

"No," Li Yuan shook his head slightly.

Jiangbei Martial Arts University's campus was over a hundred kilometers away from Jiang City and under strict control.

"I've been there twice, following my sister." Gu Qianghan said with a smile: "She has a lifetime pass and can take someone with her."

"Oh?" Li Yuan looked at Lin Lanyue, who was closing her eyes and resting, with some surprise.

He knew Lin Lanyue's family was well-off, but to have a permanent pass to Jiangbei Martial University?

"Here it comes." Xu Bo suddenly spoke up, looking up at the sky.

Whoosh!

A large flying vehicle that resembled an airship rapidly descended from the high sky, then quickly slowed down and gently landed on the school sports field.

This was a colossal object, more than seventy meters long and over twenty meters high.

Its surface was streamlined, emitting a faint blue light.

Very beautiful.

"A second-level flying vessel, RB9 type, commonly used for short-distance passenger transport," Gu Qianghan recognized it immediately and muttered: "As expected of Jiangbei Martial University, so lavish."

Second-level flying vessel? Li Yuan was secretly amazed.

As far as Li Yuan knew, all of Blue Star's flying vessels were categorized as ordinary, first rank, second rank, third rank... The standards hinged mainly on flight speed and protective capacity, with each rank divided into various types based on usage.

For example, a second-rank flying vessel, once sealed, could withstand attacks from a second-rank Prime Warrior from startup to full acceleration without damage.

Flight speed? When cruising at full speed, it was at least supersonic, and several times the speed of sound was not surprising.

Hum~ The hatch slowly opened.

"Prepare to board," Xu Bo said in a low voice.
