"Hiss..."
Someone let out a sharp intake of breath.
Everyone around looked at the tall and slender figure in the field with inexplicable reverence.
Defeating an opponent with one punch, and it was Zhao Gangyi, who always prided himself as the top young martial artist...
Even Tong Zhan, the most powerful among those present, had a serious expression on his face.
When surrounding and attacking the Changshan Five Bandits before, Bai Ziyue had already shown some of his strength. At that time, he felt that Bai Ziyue’s true strength was definitely not weak.
Seeing the scene of Zhao Gangyi being sent flying by a punch at this moment, he immediately confirmed that Bai Ziyue definitely possessed the combat capability of a Martial Artist at the External Forging of Tendons and Bones level, not much weaker than himself.
Guo Zhengyang’s pupils shrank, and his heart was filled with a great wave of shock.
Already highly valuing Bai Ziyue, he immediately elevated him to an even higher level. Thinking of the plan in his mind, his face showed a trace of somberness.
"He’s too strong..."
Qin Shaoping opened his mouth wide, muttering.
At this moment, he couldn’t help but recall the scene when he first met Bai Ziyue a few years ago. That young, innocent boy who had just begun to learn martial arts had now far surpassed him, even reaching a level he could only look up to.
"Senior Brother Zhao, thank you for letting me win."
Bai Ziyue retracted his fist and glanced at the somber and bewildered Zhao Gangyi, then turned around and left without saying more.
He didn’t really care about this fight.
Even though he always hid his strength, it didn’t mean he would back down and admit defeat.
In fact, he wasn’t low-key at all. He always maintained the title of the top genius at the Sunburst Gang Branch in Qinghe Town. Even if he wanted to be low-key, he couldn’t. The attention of others would always circle around him.
...
"This harvest is not bad.
Ninety contribution points, one hundred and fifty taels of silver.
Plus my original sixty contribution points and fifty taels of silver, the total is one hundred and fifty contribution points and two hundred taels of silver.
If it’s just for training, these contributions and silver are enough for me to use for a long time without worrying."
Back home, Bai Ziyue started to tally the gains and silently thought.
"However, if I want to exchange for the Golden Cicada Technique, these contributions and silver are far from enough."
With his current real strength reaching the peak of External Forging, he naturally wanted to get the Inner Cultivation Technique soon to step into the next level.
But the Golden Cicada Technique requires five hundred contribution points to exchange, and a better one, the Vajra Glazed Body which matches the External Forging Technique Vajra Lock Jade Technique, needs a full seven hundred contribution points.
Silently calculating, Bai Ziyue felt a weight in his heart.
Even if he exchanged his silver for contribution points, he was still two hundred and fifty points short. If he wanted the better Vajra Glazed Body, he was short a full four hundred and fifty points.
"It seems I still need to do more tasks."
Bai Ziyue felt somewhat helpless.
Unfortunately, his master wasn’t willing to teach him the Inner Cultivation Technique now, otherwise he wouldn’t be so troubled.
"Perhaps the elite disciple selection is an opportunity?"
When Zhao Gangyi sought him out, he vaguely guessed some of his thoughts. freeweɓnøvel.com
The elite disciple selection occurs every three years, and Qinghe Town only has one spot. He had heard of it long ago.
Once he becomes an elite disciple, he will undoubtedly gain great benefits.
Perhaps the troubles he faced now would be resolved.
However, there was no specific way to select yet, and even though he felt he had a good chance, he didn’t dare to hold too high hopes.
"The elite disciple matter is not urgent. For me, strength is the most important."
Muttering to himself, Bai Ziyue pulled out two secret manuals from his pocket.
Iron Cloth Shirt!
Willow Leaf Saber Technique!
These were some of the spoils of their recent victory.
In contrast to Tong Zhan, Qin Shaoping, and others who dismissed the Iron Cloth Shirt as just another External Forging Technique, Bai Ziyue valued it highly.
Because he had discovered earlier that cultivating different External Forging Techniques also increased his power.
Even if the increase wasn’t too obvious, it was still a powerful means to break through his bottleneck.
Opening the Iron Cloth Shirt manual, Bai Ziyue began to study it carefully.
Quickly, his brows furrowed.
This External Forging Technique was completely different from the Fifth Rank Golden Body and Vajra Lock Jade Technique he had learned before.
Whether it was the Fifth Rank Golden Body or Vajra Lock Jade Technique, they were all methods of developing and using power.
Under these methods, his skin, flesh, tendons, and bones were all strengthened and enhanced, achieving the purpose of cultivation.
The Iron Cloth Shirt, however, was a technique that increased the toughness of the skin and physique by continuously striking with external force and using internal power to wash away the bruises.
By comparison, this technique was not difficult to cultivate. It was much simpler than the Fifth Rank Golden Body and Vajra Lock Jade Technique, but the suffering it required was far greater than the other two External Forging Techniques.
"For this External Forging Technique to reach entry level, it requires at least thousands of strikes. With my skin’s toughness, it would need the power of a Martial Artist at the Zen Meditation Stance Great Success level, and each strike needs to be precise to be effective."
Bai Ziyue felt it was somewhat troublesome.
He wasn’t afraid of the trouble of training by himself, but asking someone to strike was not only difficult to control the force, but it could also expose the toughness of his skin.
"I need to find a reliable method to train."
Many methods flashed through Bai Ziyue’s mind, and he quickly eliminated them.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He thought of a place that might greatly help him train the Iron Cloth Shirt.
Having made a choice, Bai Ziyue felt much calmer.
For him, the real difficulty of the Iron Cloth Shirt was just the entry level. After entry, he wasn’t worried about the training.
As long as he had enough Soul Energy, he could cultivate this technique to perfection.
Then, Bai Ziyue turned to the willow leaf saber technique manual. He found that it was a flexible sword technique focused on agility. The training difficulty wasn’t high, but the weapon required a special saber.
It needed a slim, thin, and curved willow leaf saber.
Only with this kind of saber could the willow leaf saber technique’s power be fully realized.
The wide saber Bai Ziyue currently used was thick and had a coarse handle, making it hard to exhibit the precision and power of the willow leaf saber.
"I can learn it, but there’s no need to spend too much effort."
Bai Ziyue thought and decided to spend some time studying it, primarily to absorb the techniques of using agility.
This was also an application of analogy.
Even though he had perfected the Eighteen Linked Blades and Slash Blade Techniques, it didn’t mean his saber skills couldn’t be improved further.
By absorbing different techniques, his saber skills could adapt in more ways. If he became proficient, it might even evolve into a new saber technique itself...
