Cosmic Demon

Chapter 199: The highest achievement of the old martial arts school, heading to the central city!
The burned-out Qin Shi could only rely on weak breaths to stay alive.

There were earth-shaking changes going on inside his body.

The broken tendons slowly reconnected, the broken bones gradually healed, and even the torn muscles grew back together.

The whole thing looks like a piece of broken porcelain, which is then sent into the kiln for firing, with all the flaws completely repaired!
"The bone density, tendon toughness, and muscle strength have all been greatly improved.

Now, even if you withstand the machine gun fire, you probably won't get fatally injured!"

Qin Shi relied on his [muscle memory] and pushed the Magic Mountain Breathing Technique in a nearly idle state.

The life force circulates and turns into rays of dazzling light that fill the bones and nourish the dry body.

Billowing smoke and dust rose up, covering the tall figure whose breath kept rising.

It was obvious that Qin Shi had been severely beaten.

Very close to the professional field line.

The 100-point barrier is within reach!
"Junior Brother Qin, are you going to enter the professional field?"

Ren You, who was watching the whole process, had an even more intense look of surprise in his eyes.

This was the first time he saw a monster that could break through just by being beaten.

It's so unreasonable!
To know.

This is a big threshold and a big hurdle on the path of martial arts!

Thinking back to those days, it took me a long time and several years to finally get in.

"For a mediocre person like me, getting wet in the rain is nothing. Even if a genius holds an umbrella for me, I can accept it."

Ren You bared his teeth, as if he had a nerve spasm.

"But Junior Brother Qin is taking a car, all the way there!"

Yu Weiwei was not surprised at all. She was also a top student and a genius. Even if she entered the four national universities, she would still be outstanding.

“For Jiaoyang who follows the path of martial arts, professional fields have never been an obstacle, and most of the time they come naturally.

There was no suspense about Junior Brother Qin's promotion to the professional level. It just depends on when and where he wants to take that step."

These words made Ren You smile bitterly.

"Comparing yourself to others will only make you angry."

Then, he suddenly thought of a certain scene and asked again:

“Then when Junior Brother Qin takes the college entrance examination, won’t he be at the professional level?

In terms of age, Junior Brother Qin is younger than Yu Li. Is this a record-breaking achievement? "

The fish raised the corner of his mouth slightly and hummed softly:
“Yu Li entered the professional field at the age of nineteen and won the title of martial artist.

Junior Brother Qin is obviously faster than the top ten disciple. If Master knew, he would probably be able to eat two more bowls of rice tonight."

Ren You was delighted when he heard this, as his teacher was born at the wrong time.

Every time they challenged for a place in the Star Cup, the original top ten were eliminated and unfortunately became a background figure.

Like Qi Wuxiang, He Lanchan, Kou Yunchao, Lian Yixing... the teacher basically beat them all.

Now, the Nanhuang Dojo that he founded personally has produced a genius like Junior Brother Xiao Qin, who is suppressing Yu Li, who is in the limelight of the new generation.

This is truly cause for celebration and worth setting off firecrackers to celebrate.

"Oh, it seems like I'm too happy too early."

Yu frowned slightly, his heart was in turmoil, and he sensed the majestic aura of the Qin Dynasty like a rising tide. Suddenly, he stopped and began to fall back.

Her junior fellow apprentice seemed to have taken that step and then decisively pulled his foot back.

It's like jumping across the door to my professional field!
"what's going on?"

A question mark popped up in Ren You’s head.

Can you jump back with the finishing touch?

Is the breakthrough so random?!
……

……

Qin Shi stared at the path of light extending from under his feet. It seemed extremely long and infinitely wide.

The end point is the endless sky.

"The place above the sea of ​​stars, the pinnacle of the universe?"

Qin Shi's eyes were intoxicated. The evolutionary instinct buried deep in their genes made all living things desire to become stronger and more perfect.

"After this step, I will be a professional. I can take my own title and get certified as a martial artist."

Qin Shi’s heart was pounding wildly. Most of the people who were called “geniuses” were like this.

This is the ceiling they can reach in their entire life on the path of martial arts.

"If I enter the professional field and become a martial artist, I will automatically obtain the status of a ninth-level citizen."

Qin Shi remembered what Lao Liang had told him, about the hidden system of twelve levels of citizens, with level nine being a hurdle.

Either serve in a regiment and earn military merit, or be listed as a "special talent" by Dongxia and given special treatment.

Martial artists under the age of twenty belong to the latter category.

Ninth-level citizens are not bound by most legal provisions and are supervised by Dongxia's fundamental constitution.

And it is legal to possess combat weapons and corresponding equipment as long as they do not exceed the civilian level.

"But I am the executive vice-master of Nanhuang Gym, and I have a license. My authority is higher than that of a ninth-level citizen."

With a buzzing sound, his mind began to shine, as if a basin of cold water was poured down on him, making Qin Shi become much calmer.

He resisted the urge to step into the professional world easily.

"We still have to wait until we reach the fifth limit and rush through it in one go."

Qin Shi thought of Lao Zhang's advice. The meat was already rotten in the pot, so there was no need to be too anxious.

He immediately started practicing the Void Meditation Technique, contracting his mental power inward and controlling his emotional ups and downs.

The path of light extending from under his feet gradually disappeared.

The door to the professional field also closed.

"Ninety-nine point nine?"

Qin Shi slowly looked inward and came up with a more accurate value of his vitality.

"This is truly the peak of the amateur level, half a step to perfection."

As for the new achievement [Stacked Armor].

He has no time to pay attention to it for the time being.

I plan to find out more about it later.

Exiting the light path, the simulated central city scene turned into a particle stream, just like a painting being erased bit by bit by an eraser.

Qin Shi sat on the ground. After the "accelerated training" of continuous beatings, his skin took on a glazed luster.

From a distance, the figure seems to be glowing, with an otherworldly temperament.

This is a further manifestation of the continued polishing of the Piguan limit.

Lao Zhang pushed his wheelchair over and saw Yu Weiwei and Ren You eating melons in shock. He couldn't help but ask:
"What happened? Xuanming just used a large amount of data resources. What was he doing?"

Yu Weiwei walked up to the master and said softly:
"Junior Brother Xiao Qin used Xuanming to simulate training. I saw that even the professional level couldn't defeat him, so I increased the intensity and retrieved... the data that Senior Brother Shen had left behind."

Old Zhang was stunned for a moment, but showed no surprise.

In the past, Second Senior Brother Shen Changyuan was a taboo topic in Nanhuang Taoist Temple.

When Junior Brother Qin took over the position of heir, the scar that everyone deliberately chose to forget or never mention seemed not to be so painful anymore.

This is probably the reason why the old martial arts school attaches so much importance to inheritance.

This is the most gratifying thing for a dojo.

Nothing can describe it better than the four words “there are successors”.

"Xiao Qin won't be able to defeat Yuan. The combat data he left behind is the average level of a professional seventh-dan."

Old Zhang frowned and turned his gaze to the sitting Qin Shi. Why did this guy look like he had just had fun?

Yu Weiwei responded:

"Junior Brother Qin has exhausted 'Senior Brother Shen' to death."

She told her master the whole process of how Qin Shi became addicted to being beaten, madly looking for beatings, and then exhausted all the data resources retrieved by Xuanming.

"Didn't Xiao Qin inherit He Lanchan's legacy? Why did he learn Kou Yunchao's tricks?"

Old Zhang was also very surprised. The secret book of the Yu Nei Hong Lu in the Nanhuang Dojo focused on combat bursts and accumulated foundation, and had little to do with horizontal defense.

"He's exhausted all of Yuan. This kid is really tough."

Yu covered his mouth and smiled:
"Junior Brother Qin was about to enter the professional field, but he stopped at the last minute."

Old Zhang raised his sparse white eyebrows and said approvingly:

"The path is open, the secret road is spread out, and it is within reach. You can resist such a strong temptation. Not bad, you have the style of me in my old days!"

Yu smiled slightly. What his master liked to mention most was how he had repeatedly rejected specialized fields, and finally broke through four major limits in one go, entering the 100-point mark with a strong foundation.

"Master, do you think what Junior Brother Qin did was good or bad?"

Old Zhang narrowed his eyes, his strong will seemed to be real, instantly penetrating Qin Shi who was immersed in cultivation, and said lightly:

"He is at the golden age of developing vitality. According to the people in the Supreme Research Institute, the human body is like a tree. As the rings of the tree grow, it will inevitably go from vigorous growth to aging and decay.

The seven limits of the physical body are considered difficult, and that’s where the difficulty lies.”

Even among the old martial arts schools today, there are very few who dare to take the path of the Seven Limits.

the reason is simple.

Every time you pass a level, it is equivalent to opening up a limitation of the human body.

When the tendons, bones, skin, membranes, qi, strength and spirit are all opened.

They in turn will turn into shackles and fetters, tightly binding the mortal body.

Those who choose the martial arts path of the seven limits must face the extremely difficult "unification of the human body".

"Too many people have wasted their time. I remember clearly that a freak like He Lanchan took nearly seven years to become a master."

Old Zhang sighed, with both joy and worry in his eyes.

"I believe Xiao Qin knows what's going on. At his age, even if he were to enter the professional field a few months later, it would be a rare example.

If he completes his professional field and reaches the first stage before the age of 22, he will have eight years to integrate himself and achieve the ultimate perfection of the seven limits. "

Yu Weiwei's beautiful eyes flickered. It was obvious that the unification of the seven limits of the physical body was the highest achievement of the old martial arts school.

"I believe in Junior Brother Qin."

she whispered.

"This time when you go to the central city, you should restrain your murderous intent, Xiaoyuer. You are a psychic, and having your hands stained with too much blood will not be conducive to your future practice."

Lao Zhang instructed his three apprentices.

"Know it."

Fish smiled slightly.

"Master, don't worry. I won't let Brother Shen's tragedy happen again with Brother Qin."

Old Zhang sighed again. Well, the third apprentice obviously turned a deaf ear to what the master said.

He felt helpless in his heart. Outsiders always said that the Nanhuang Taoist School had a bad tradition and that the true teachings that came out of it were either very unorthodox and evil, or arrogant and domineering, doing whatever they wanted.

It really has nothing to do with me.

The apprentice is strong-willed and has his own ideas, and no matter how hard the master tries to persuade him, there is nothing he can do.

"When will Senior Sister leave?"

Ren You, who was silently acting as an unknown person, asked.

"The day after tomorrow, take the Tai'an special train."

Yu Weiwei replied:
"There are quite a lot of people accompanying us. I hope everything goes well and nothing goes wrong."

……

……

"Xiao Qin, I wish you a safe journey."

On the station platform, Chen Ruofu stood at the front of the farewell team. He held Qin Shi's hand, facing the reporter's camera, and whispered:
"As the top leader, I cannot leave my post unless it is necessary. If you have any questions or need to ask about official procedures, feel free to ask Secretary Huo."

Qin Shi nodded and smiled at Secretary Huo, who was not a stranger to him as he had met him several times.

Old Chen was willing to assign this personal secretary to himself, which showed how much he valued him.

"You don't have to worry about your safety. The Governor's Mansion is the safest place on this new star. As soon as you get off the special train, there will be a car to pick you up and take you to the State Guesthouse in the Governor's Mansion."

Chen Ruofu gave Qin Shi another reassurance:

"The security level there is so high that even if you are at the Grandmaster level, you can't just barge in casually."

Qin Shi nodded. Lao Zhang and Lao Liang had repeatedly mentioned these "knowledge points".

He went to the central city, firstly to accept the public commendation from the planetary governor and collect the reward for the first place in the top 100 competition; secondly to register his identity and officially enter the standings of the Star Cup Youth Group to compete for a place in the ancient sky road.

"Unless Ying's brain is squeezed by the door, there is no way he can target me. The thundering anger of the Governor's Office and the subsequent pursuit of responsibility by the Dongxia Tribunal will be enough to make anyone who comes here suffer."

"That's right. I'm glad you understand. I'm most afraid that you'll lose your composure and become paranoid. If you become too nervous, you'll create opportunities for the Ying family to take advantage of you."

Chen Ruofu was very pleased. If it were any other young genius, he would not dare to send him to the central city at will and expose him to the eyes of the Education Department and the Ying family.

But he could absolutely trust Xiao Qin's calmness and steadiness.

"Minister, it's getting late."

Secretary Huo raised his hand and tapped his watch as a silent reminder.

"Xiao Qin, I hope you can return home soon, with glory, and step into the sky and the sea of ​​stars. Leave your own mark in this new era!"

Chen Ruofu opened his hand, his eyes full of anticipation.

"It will live up to your expectations."

Qin Shi stood up straight, straightened his clothes and hat and said.

He was wearing a more formal student uniform today. It was navy blue, with a stand-up collar and a single row of five copper buttons. He was wearing straight trousers with the trouser lines ironed straight.

The whole person looks very energetic and full of vitality.

He carried his suitcase and boarded the special train.

After sitting down, I looked through the raised windows and saw many familiar faces in the drifting hot air.

On the platform were Lao Chen, Lao Fang, as well as Senior Brother Ren and Senior Sister Jian from Nanhuang Taoist Temple.

Further outside the iron fence, the eldest sister Qin Xiao and the youngest sister Qin Lan also came.

There seemed to be Lin Yunqing and Chen Yun in the crowd. They were sitting quite far away on the roof of the Hanhai Conqueror, smiling sweetly.

The eldest sister's eyes were crystal clear, as if filled with tears, while the youngest stood on tiptoe and waved at him vigorously.

But the sound was very vague and was covered by the shrill whistle, so I couldn't hear what was being shouted.

Qin Shi stretched his palm out of the window and shook it gently, saying goodbye to these familiar faces, as well as to the Tai'an urban area and the Old Factory Street where he grew up.

"Junior Brother Qin, your next destination is the heart of the entire new star, the highest point in this world."

Yu Weiwei sat opposite and smiled gently and peacefully:

"There are still mountains you have to climb and enemies you have to defeat."

The wheels of the special train rolled on the rails, speeding up faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, it drove out of the platform and rushed forward along the mountain that meandered like a long dragon.

The cool breeze blew in, blowing Qin Shi's collar slightly. He withdrew his palm and pressed it on the table, his eyes as calm as ever.

“I am looking forward to new gains and new challenges.”

Yu Weiwei seemed satisfied with Qin Shi's answer. She supported her cheek with her hands and looked at the scenery outside the window that was rapidly receding.

"Me too. Junior Brother Qin, in the days ahead, you and I will be inseparable."
