Ma Yunfei was completely stunned, his thoughts in a mess, as if he were being attacked by countless insects.
“No, 1 need to try again. If Xiao Chen and Lu Yun can pass the 13th floor, 1 don’t believe I can’t pass the 10th floor this time.”
With that in mind, he picked up his long spear and headed towards the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
When he arrived at the tower, he saw many familiar faces, all of whom had entered the Martial Academy around the same time as him and possessed Level 5 Innate Talent.
There were Wang Teng, An Yuan, Lu Jinsi, Luo Yuejiao and several other Level 5 Innate Talent geniuses.
“Hahaha, Ma Yunfei, you’re here too,” said Wang Teng with a domineering tone. “This time, your position as the fourth person will not be preserved, and I will be the first one to be promoted to the Star Palace after Lu Yun and the others.”
“Hmph, you, Wang Teng, can pass the tenth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower?” Ma Yunfei sneered, his face full of disdain.
Wang Teng grinned, “Whether 1 can or not, you’ll know soon!”
Soon, it was their turn.
They transformed into streams of light and entered the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
An hour later, An Yuan, Lu Jinsi, and Luo Yuejiao came out one after another, still unable to pass the ninth floor.
Two hours later, Ma Yunfei exited the tower, his face dark as water.
Not long after, Wang Teng strode out of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, his face brimming with a confident smile.
He scanned the area and immediately saw Ma Yunfei, who was not far away. He walked over, patted Ma Yunfei’s shoulder forcefully, and laughed, “Junior Brother Ma, it won’t be long before I become a disciple of the Star Palace.” “You passed the tenth floor?” Ma Yunfei’s eyes sank slightly, and his face looked a bit unnatural.
“Haha, of course.” Wang Teng laughed and left.
At this time, the A/tyriad Phenomena Square was quite lively, but Ma Yunfei’s heart was very cold, colder than it had ever been before.
“Why has Wang Teng, who used to lag far behind me, surpassed me now?”
“I spend every day either eating, doing tasks, or practicing, without wasting a single minute. So why am 1 being surpassed by them one after another?”
“My talent is no worse than theirs, and 1 was ahead of Lu Yun and Xiao Chen at the beginning, so why am 1 being surpassed by them one by one now?”
Ma Yunfei continually pondered in his heart, various emotions filling him, making it difficult for him to calm down.
“No, I must be calm.”
He kept telling himself this.
The Myriad Phenomena Square was still bustling, and many disciples were discussing Wang Teng, the victorious and proud Wang Teng who had laughed and left.
At this moment, Ma Yunfei’s eyes gradually turned inward, and his mind gradually calmed down. He said in a low voice, “1 have a top-notch Level 5 Innate Talent, and I’m one of the most talented people besides Level 6 Innate Talent. I should be confident, cultivate with a clear mind, break through the mental shackles left by Xiao Chen and Lu Yun in the past, and only by completely parting with my former self can I…”
Ma Yunfei was originally a clever person with a determined Martial Arts Will. He quickly came to a realization.
The reason why he was surpassed by Wang Teng so quickly was that Xiao Chen and Lu Yun had become his obsession, shackling his heart, causing his progress to become slower and slower. That’s why he was stuck at the tenth floor and surpassed by Wang Teng.
How to break the shackles of Lu Yun and Xiao Chen?
“Lu Yun and Xiao Chen are able to pass the 11th, 12th, and 13th floors of the Myriad Phenomena Tower in one go, which shows that their talents and strengths far exceed the limit of Level 5 Innate Talent. Even Bai Haoxuan, who has a Level 6 Innate Talent, cannot achieve this.”
“My target was wrong from the beginning. Xiao Chen and Lu Yun are not the ones I should be chasing and surpassing. I should let go of my obsession with comparing myself to them.”
After fully realizing and letting go of his obsession, Ma Yunfei suddenly felt that the world had become incredibly vast.
“Xiao Chen has also passed the 13th floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower in one go?!” At Star Peak, inside a small building, Bai Haoxuan’s eyes sank, and an invisible momentum burst out, causing the objects in the room to tremble violently, as if they would shatter at any moment.
“How can these two useless Level 5 Innate Talents be so strong?”
Bai Haoxuan always felt it was unbelievable. His cultivation speed was already exceptional among the many Level 6 Innate Talents, but now he had been surpassed by Lu Yun and Xiao Chen, who were merely Level 5 Innate Talents. Especially when he knew about the situation on the 11th, 12th, and 13th floors of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, he knew what it meant to pass three floors in a row.
It was either possessing absolute strength or having almost infinite True Qi.
Besides that, there was no other possibility.
Star Peak, Small Building No. 3358.
On the balcony.
“I didn’t expect that just by trying the Myriad Phenomena Tower once, 1 would cause such a stir in the Martial Academy.” Lu Yun’s face was somewhat strange. “To be promoted to the Star Palace Junior and then pass three levels of the Myriad Phenomena Tower in one go, how many people in the entire Martial Academy can do that? How could it not be a sensation!”
As he spoke, Duan Qing’s face showed a smile, with a bit of a narrow smile.
Lu Yun was clearly stunned for a moment:
“Are there very few people who can pass three levels consecutively after the tenth level of the Myriad Phenomena Tower?”
“Not just a few, it’s simply as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.”
“No way, there are so many disciples, and the Martial Academy has been established for such a long time.”
“How long could it have been, only two or three hundred years of history at most.”
At this point, Duan Qing sighed: “In the end, the entire Ling Province only has a history of more than three hundred years, and compared to the nine states, the martial arts level of Ling Province is simply not on the same level.”
Lu Yun agreed with this quite a bit.
So far, he had come across no more than a handful of Level 6 Innate Talents, and apart from Gu Yuan, there was not a single person with a Level 7 Innate Talent.
In the whole Flying Spirit Martial Academy, a Level 5 Innate Talent is already considered a Heavenly Pride.
It should be known that Level 5 and Level 6 Innate Talents are actually only considered average talents at best.
Peeking at one prefecture and observing the whole province, the entire Spirit Martial Prefecture’s martial arts holy land is like this, showing how few talents there are in Ling Province and how backward their martial arts levels are.
It didn’t take long for Duan Qing to say goodbye and leave.
His visit this time was to help Lu Yun deal with the Sumi Bag and other items from last time.
A total of 430 Contribution Points were obtained and have already been transferred to Lu Yun.
If it were a few days ago, getting such a sum of Contribution Points would definitely make Lu Yun happy for a long time.
Unfortunately, times are different now. Having a sizable amount of
Contribution Points, he really doesn’t care about such a small amount of Contribution Points anymore.
If it wasn’t for Duan Qing coming to him, he might have even forgotten about it.
The higher you go in the Myriad Phenomena Tower, the more Contribution Points you will get after passing.
Passing the eleventh level earns you 4,000 Contribution Points.
Twelfth level, 5,000 Contribution Points.
Thirteenth level, 6,000 Contribution Points.
Now, the amount of Contribution Points on Lu Yun’s token has reached an unprecedented five-digit number, a total of 11,730.
“I can set the Myriad Phenomena Tower aside for now, but how should 1 spend all these Contribution Points?”
Lu Yun played with his token and fell into deep thought.
If it was at the beginning, he would have gone to the Pill Medicine Building without hesitation and exchanged it all for pills, then refined them to convert them into energy values.
But after thinking about it for a bit, he discarded this idea.
Exchanging for a dozen or so Profound Origin Pills is normal and wouldn’t attract anyone’s attention, as this is a pill that can help True Qi Realm martial artists speed up their refining of True Qi.
But if you exchange for too many, it becomes abnormal, and anyone can see the trick in it.
Especially considering the current situation where he is at the center of attention.
Thinking of this, Lu Yun couldn’t help feeling depressed.
Now that he has so many Contribution Points, he has nowhere to spend them.
“No, 1 must become an Alchemist no matter what. Otherwise, my progress will not only be limited in the future, but the risk of exposure will also increase.” Thinking of this, Lu Yun became even more determined to become an Alchemist.
“There are still five months until the treasure auction Duan Qing mentioned, so there’s no rush.”
Lu Yun slowly calmed down and pondered his plan for the next few months.
First of all, he needed to accumulate more Contribution Points, convert them into spirit crystals, and prepare for the treasure auction.
Secondly, go to the Book Collection Pavilion to settle down and learn the basic knowledge of pills and spirit herbs securely.
Last but not least, continue to secretly cultivate while waiting for the commotion around the Myriad Phenomena Tower to gradually subside..
