“The document from Kunlun Martial University?” Li Yuan immediately clicked to accept.
It was a brief guide of cultivation suggestions sent by Fan Jin.
Li Yuan just started to read.
“Drip~” The V-com call vibrated, a communication from Teacher Fan Jin.
Li Yuan immediately chose to answer.
Hum~ The video call connected.
“Teacher Fan.” Li Yuan smiled, looking at the elder dressed in pajamas on the screen.
“So late, I haven’t disturbed your rest, have I?” Fan Jin smiled.
“No.”
“Well, you should have received the document.” Fan Jin smiled, “Ideally, this cultivation guide should have been given to you after your college entrance exams.”
“However, I just got a message from Starfire Martial Hall that your physical quality has reached level 9.5?”
Li Yuan kept a poker face, but his heart skipped a beat.
He realized that he must have gotten too excited during today’s combat practice and failed to contain his strength in time, exposing his real power.
A 99% chance, it was Fang Longhu who reported the situation when he requested to be excused from the sparring session.
Fang Longhu’s report did not surprise Li Yuan.
With his contract level, it was certain that the high ranks of Starfire Martial Hall would keep a continuous watch on him.
Only, he hadn’t expected that Kunlun Martial Arts University would get wind of it in just two hours.
For the moment, Li Yuan could only laugh.
“Haha, don’t worry.”
Teacher Fan Jin laughed, “You have signed with both our Kunlun Martial University and Starfire Martial Hall, and at a very high level. Naturally, we have established communication to more quickly know about your condition to timely adjust your cultivation plan.”
“Thank you for your concern, teacher.” Li Yuan smiled, “I had a breakthrough in my techniques the day before the invitation event. For some reason, my physical quality has improved very quickly over the past week or so after using the Essence Pills of Origin Power. I’d estimate I’m probably not quite at 9.5 yet, maybe around 9.3.”
To directly claim 9.5 would be an exaggeration.
The difference in the explosive strength of 9.5 and 9.3 is not big.
“9.3?”
Fan Jin was also surprised, “A week ago, were you not level 8.9? Could it be that the actual measurement back then wasn’t accurate?”
Li Yuan smiled and said nothing.
“It seems President Li was right, you have an exceptionally high physical talent, you just lacked cultivation technique. Your progress was faster than those students practicing high-rank cultivation methods… well, you had just entered the Fourth Level, capable of digging deeper into your physical strength…
an improvement of 0.4 isn’t strange.” Fan Jin nodded, his gaze at Li Yuan shifting slightly, “Good! Good!”
Without need for Li Yuan to explain, Fan Jin had made his own assumptions.
After all, such examples were not uncommon in the history of Martial Path.
“9.3 is close enough.” Fan Jin said, “You should know, Li Yuan, that to improve your physical quality, unlike many students, you’ll heavily rely on external substances.”
“The student understands.” Li Yuan said.
Others could cultivate high-rank methods and absorb Cosmic Origin Power, but he couldn’t.
“Before reaching level 9.5, taking basic elixirs for blood and Qi, and ordinary Essence Pills of Origin Power, will satisfy your body’s evolutionary needs.” Fan Jin said, “But the stronger the body, the more energy it consumes.”
“Just relying on these, once you surpass 9.5, the evolution speed of your body will gradually slow down, even coming to a complete halt.”
Li Yuan nodded lightly.
In fact, ever since his physical quality exceeded level 8.0, he had gradually started to feel this.
“My suggestion is, in conjunction with the document’s cultivation guidance.” Fan Jin said, “Start trying First Rank blood and Qi medicinal liquid, along with using Cleansing Spirit Marrow and Essence Pills of Origin Power.”
“What is Cleansing Spirit Marrow?” Li Yuan asked, puzzled.
He was familiar with the first two.
“It’s specifically developed for situations like yours where there’s no cultivation technique.” Fan Jin said, “Any elixir or pill contains impurities.”
“Normal martial artists practice cultivation techniques and consume fewer external items, hence less burden on their bodies.”
“But you can’t.”
“Cleansing Spirit Marrow can continually wash away the impurities in your body.
This way, as long as your body can absorb the Origin Power and the medicinal strength of blood and Qi, you could improve at an almost extreme speed.” Fan Jin said, “In the past, the first generation of martial artists relied on the original version of ‘Cleansing Spirit Marrow’ to toughly raise their physical quality to level 19.”
Li Yuan suddenly understood.
“Nowadays, few use the Cleansing Spirit Marrow; you should be able to find it in the Starfire Space database.” Fan Jin said, “Follow the proportion of use outlined in the cultivation guidance document.”
“Try it once first.”
“If your body can withstand the pain of the Cleansing Spirit Marrow, then continue; if you find your body can’t handle it, stick with the old cultivation plan.” Fan Jin smiled with anticipation, “Strive to increase your physical quality to level 10.0 by August, or even higher.”
“At the end of July, the school will organize a Combat Assessment. Although you’ve already passed it, you can apply again. The top 100 among the two thousand newcomers will get cash rewards.” Fan Jin said with a smile, “The top ten will be awarded 3 million Blue Star Coins.”
He knew how to entice students with rewards.
“Yes.” Li Yuan said earnestly.
After hanging up the call.
“Combat Assessment? End of July?” Li Yuan’s eyes were full of excitement.
Previously, Li Yuan had been pondering where to find an opportunity for a Combat Assessment.
So he could raise his Spiritual Awakening Level to the 20% threshold to see if he might get another chance for Spiritual Nature to enter his body.
With his current strength, going to the war front was too dangerous; neither Starfire Martial Hall nor the school would allow it.
But unexpectedly,
the opportunity had arrived just like that.
“The end of July? That leaves four months?” Li Yuan silently thought, “The top ten, plus an extra reward of three million Blue Star Coins?”
It was a very generous reward.
“Do your best.”
“Just like Teacher Fan Jin said, strive to become a real First Rank martial artist.” Li Yuan thought silently.
Kunlun Martial Arts University, being subtly the number one Martial Arts University in Xia Country, recruits two thousand students each year, all of whom are elites from all over the country.
