Inside the classroom, Su Yang was giving a General Knowledge Class on martial arts, speaking eloquently.
“The evolution speed of Vicious Beasts far exceeds our imagination. In less than two hundred years, Vicious Beasts have begun to evolve according to human forms, and have even started to Cultivate martial arts like humans.”
“Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.”
“To defeat Vicious Beasts, we must have a sufficient understanding of them!”
“There are three main categories of Vicious Beasts: pure beast type, semi-beast type, and humanoid type.”
“The number of humanoid Vicious Beasts is currently very small. They are the most arrogant existence among Vicious Beasts, with terrifying strength, almost equivalent to the Martial Emperor level. They possess the same intelligence as humans and hold absolute leadership in the Vicious Beast world, where the weak are prey to the strong!”
“…”
In addition to martial arts theory and practice, the General Knowledge Class was also one of the three major subjects for the martial arts college entrance examination.
Strangely, as he began teaching, none of the students in Class Five were causing trouble; in fact, everyone was looking at him with rapt attention.
This made Su Yang feel somewhat at a loss, and he had a bad premonition!
Class Five had already driven away three class teachers; there was no reason for them to be so well-behaved!
I don't believe these Devil Kings would cooperate with me just because I’m handsome and imposing!
When things are abnormal, there must be a demon; they must be holding back, preparing to prank him.
However, Su Yang didn't care. With the Teacher's Invincibility skill, no tricks would work.
He had already decided to fight Class Five to the end!
After all, he was still counting on guiding students to improve to get strength feedback, change his Heaven-Defying fate, achieve the First-Rank Martial Saint, reach the Peak of his life, and marry a Valkyrie.
So, as soon as class was over, Su Yang told Class Five to study independently and immediately headed to the school library to find a suitable Mind-Cultivation Technique for Zhu Tao.
However, as soon as Su Yang left, everyone in the classroom immediately gathered around Li Yiming.
“What’s going on!?”
“Is your Thunder Needle not charged!?”
“Why is nothing happening to that Su fellow!?”
“I don’t know!”
Li Yiming pulled up his sleeve, revealing his launching device, and began to inspect it.
He had been puzzled for the entire class.
Logically, his Thunder Needle should definitely not have any problems.
After an inspection, Li Yiming was even more puzzled.
“No problem!”
“Look, it’s showing a green light!”
“Sufficient power!”
Everyone looked closely and indeed saw that the miniature indicator lights on the launching device were all green, indicating normal operation.
“That doesn’t make sense! If it’s normal, why is that Su fellow acting like nothing happened!?”
“How about I shoot you once to try?”
“Get lost! I’m not trying it!”
Just as everyone was puzzled, a gasp suddenly came from the podium: “Holy crap!”
“What’s wrong?”
Everyone looked over at the sound and saw the class monitor, Zhu Tao, picking up a metal needle broken into two pieces from the ground, his face full of shock.
Everyone’s expression suddenly changed.
Li Yiming’s eyes widened: “This… how is this possible!?”
“The Thunder Needle is made of reinforced metal; it’s impossible for it to break!”
“Could it be a counterfeit product!?”
“Nonsense!” Li Yiming said anxiously, “Didn’t it work perfectly before?”
Everyone remembered that the first class teacher had been hit by the Thunder Needle and immediately collapsed, convulsing all over.
Zhu Tao, observing the broken needle, his expression darkened: “It’s not the needle’s problem.”
Everyone looked puzzled.
“Then what’s the problem?”
Zhu Tao solemnly placed the two broken pieces of the needle in front of everyone: “Look closely at this section.”
Everyone’s gaze fell, and they all gasped.
The sharp end was directly flattened.
“This…” The Wolf Tooth Club Girl gasped, her pupils suddenly contracting: “What does this mean!?”
“…”
“Can you not make that expression, you damn it!?”
“Can’t I create some atmosphere!?”
Zhu Tao couldn't help but roll his eyes and explained, “It can only break into two pieces when it hits a hard surface, and we all saw with our own eyes that the Thunder Needle pierced his leg!”
“So?”
Zhu Tao was silent for a moment, then gave his guess.
“Steel bones and iron skin, a Sixth-Rank Martial Venerable!”
… …
Library.
Su Yang took out his ID card, passed the verification, and entered the library.
With technology advancing rapidly, most martial arts school libraries are electronic libraries, storing a massive and complete collection of basic Mind-Cultivation Techniques.
Advanced Mind-Cultivation Techniques are generally only available at martial arts universities, and the better the university, the more Advanced Mind-Cultivation Techniques one can learn.
The Mind-Cultivation Technique Su Yang Cultivates is called the “Nine Refinements Body Tempering Art,” a special Mind-Cultivation Technique provided by Donghai Martial Arts Normal College.
However, Su Yang’s Cultivation Aptitude was mediocre, and he had been stagnant in his Cultivation until now.
Ordinary families simply could not afford expensive Cultivation resources.
Su Yang also couldn't take out a loan to buy Body Tempering Liquid, which would only increase his burden.
Coming to the computer, Su Yang began to search for a basic Mind-Cultivation Technique suitable for Zhu Tao in the massive Mind-Cultivation Technique library.
Although the System could check the compatibility based on the Mind-Cultivation Technique provided by Su Yang, it could only do so one by one, not in batches.
“How about this Mind-Cultivation Technique for Zhu Tao to learn?”
【Checking compatibility… 】
【Check complete, 6% compatibility with Zhu Tao】
“What about this one?”
【Checking compatibility… 】
【Check complete, 11% compatibility with Zhu Tao】
Su Yang scratched his head, feeling quite a headache for a moment.
The school's basic Mind-Cultivation Technique library is networked nationwide, and the total number of Mind-Cultivation Techniques currently in the database exceeds 30,000!
To find a Mind-Cultivation Technique with relatively high compatibility in this vast Mind-Cultivation Technique library would be like looking for a needle in a haystack; who knows how long it would take!
“Your System is more or less a bit outdated! It doesn’t even have a batch checking function!”
Su Yang couldn't help but complain, but the System did not respond.
“It’s going to take forever to filter them one by one. By the time I find a suitable Mind-Cultivation Technique, Class Five will probably have graduated!”
“No, I have to find a way!”
As the saying goes, as long as your mindset doesn’t slip, there are always more solutions than problems.
Su Yang pondered for a moment and quickly had an idea.
Although martial arts Mind-Cultivation Techniques are ever-changing and diverse, they all boil down to four main categories.
Body technique, weapon technique, movement technique, and defense technique.
Under each major category, there are countless subcategories.
A single fist technique can have tens of thousands of variations, but the power exertion techniques and methods are common and won't differ much.
The same goes for others.
Su Yang decided to try starting from the broad categories first, constantly refining to see if he could find a relatively suitable Mind-Cultivation Technique.
Zhu Tao Cultivates a fist technique, but the compatibility is not high, so Su Yang began to choose palm techniques, leg techniques, claw techniques, etc., finding the most representative Mind-Cultivation Techniques among them for compatibility checks, to see if the compatibility would be higher.
“Compatibility of Nine Yang Palm.”
【Checking compatibility… 】
【Check complete, 34% compatibility with Zhu Tao】
Clearly, Nine Yang Palm has much higher compatibility than the Panlong Divine Fist that Zhu Tao Cultivates!
Su Yang’s eyes brightened, feeling that his approach seemed viable.
“What about Divine Wind Leg compatibility?”
【Checking compatibility… 】
【Check complete, 24% compatibility with Zhu Tao】
After twenty minutes of filtering, Su Yang found that Zhu Tao’s compatibility with body techniques generally fluctuated between 20% and 30%, not exceeding 40%.
He decisively proceeded to adapt to the broad category of weapon techniques. Su Yang first selected common weapon Mind-Cultivation Techniques such as sabers, spears, staffs, and clubs for compatibility.
44%, 47%, 48%…
Su Yang was immediately delighted. It directly broke through the 40% mark!?
Could it be that he is suitable for practicing weapon techniques!?
However, after a series of adaptations, the compatibility generally fluctuated around 40%, neither high nor low.
“Compatibility of Piercing Heart Needle Technique.”
【Checking compatibility… 】
【Check complete, 107% compatibility with Zhu Tao】
“Next… Huh!????”
