My slightest action was the system's limit.

Chapter 144 Cultivation Plan, Starry Sky Rank! (Two Chapters Combined)

"Great Sun Spear Technique!"

"The champion of the first All-Star Battle? Created by Bai Long?" Jiang Ye was extremely surprised when he saw the introduction.

As far as he knew, the history of the Star Wars was several hundred years old.

The first All-Star Wars? That was extremely far in the past. Those who participated in that All-Star Wars were probably all veterans of the Blue Star martial arts civilization.

But what truly surprised Jiang Ye was the name 'White Dragon'.

"Bailong, that seems to be the name of the founder of Bailong University." Jiang Ye felt a chill run down his spine.

That was the pinnacle of civilization on Earth.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the strongest human being.

Who created the Great Sun Spear Technique? If so, it would be priceless, far exceeding the Xuan rank.

"Perhaps it's the marksmanship he created when he was young." Jiang Ye examined it carefully.

He was indeed fond of this marksmanship.

It wasn't because of its origin, but because the technique itself was extremely well-suited to Jiang Ye.

"This is it!" Jiang Ye made his decision.

Half an hour later, everyone had made their selections.

The surrounding scenery changes, and we return to the spacious training room.

Everyone, including Jiang Ye and Yun Qing'er, wore expressions of satisfaction.

The profound-level cultivation techniques of Penglai University are naturally incomparable to those of the outside world.

Even some wealthy people from well-off families may not have access to these things.

Zhu Honglie looked at the students' expressions and nodded slightly.

"It seems they've all chosen their cultivation methods."

"Well then, I won't waste any more time," Zhu Honglie said. "Next, I will give each of you a training plan."

"Jiang Ye, let's start with you."

"Okay." Jiang Ye listened attentively.

"From today onwards, your daily cultivation time must not be less than fourteen hours."

“Outside of your cultivation time, you have three hours to ask me questions,” Zhu Honglie said. “Whether it’s your Starry Sky Secret Techniques or weapon techniques, you can come to me with any questions.”

“Every day, I must squeeze out two hours to enter the independent starry sky and challenge the starry sky level.” Zhu Honglie kept adding to his cultivation plan.

The training room was completely quiet.

Everyone, including Yun Qing'er, looked at Zhu Honglie with considerable surprise.

Zhu Honglie's demands on Jiang Ye were far too strict!

Don't say anything else.

The time he mentioned alone already exceeded nineteen hours.

At the end of the day, Jiang Ye only had five hours left to rest.

Although a broken martial artist only needs to sleep five or six hours a day.

But isn't that too harsh?

"Only five hours of sleep?" Jiang Ye remained calm.

Five hours is too long!

He doesn't usually sleep.

Jiang Ye was somewhat surprised by the three hours of consultation time.

Keep in mind that there are a total of nine students here, and he took up three hours, so the others will have less time.

However, Jiang Ye was ranked first among the freshmen.

None of the freshmen present harbored any resentment.

“Jiang Ye, I will assess your cultivation progress every week.”

"If you meet my standards," Zhu Honglie said calmly, "I will not hesitate to reward you."

Jiang Ye's eyes lit up.

"Jiang Ye, did you understand everything?" Zhu Honglie asked in a booming voice.

"Understood, teacher." Jiang Ye bowed respectfully.

"Hmm." Zhu Honglie nodded, then looked at the others.

"Yun Qing'er, what are my requirements for you?"

After one hour.

Zhu Honglie arranged a cultivation plan for everyone.

“You must participate in a real combat mission every three months.”

"Martial arts are for killing enemies." Zhu Honglie's gaze swept over everyone: "You cannot be hothouse flowers."

"The combat missions at Penglai University are highly dangerous, including many of them involving guarding missions in the Starry Sky Passage."

"But the rewards are also generous," Zhu Honglie said. "Usually, they are at least five million yuan or more."

Everyone's eyes lit up.

"A real combat mission? At least five million?" Jiang Ye was even more excited.

Coming to university makes all the difference; there are opportunities to make money everywhere!
In the past, earning 100,000 was incredibly difficult.

But now? They're often over a million.

"I will not be teaching today."

"Once you receive the new cultivation technique, try to comprehend it on your own and practice diligently," Zhu Honglie said. "Classes will officially begin tomorrow."

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

"If you need anything, you can come to my office next door," Zhu Honglie said before turning and leaving.

Whew~ Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It helped me relax from that tense atmosphere.

"Eno."

"Teacher Zhu is very strict with you," Yun Qing'er whispered, standing next to Jiang Ye. "Does he have a grudge against you?"

"."

Jiang Ye remained silent. How could this be considered an enmity?

However, Zhu Honglie was indeed stricter with him than with others.

Others, at most, provided a training plan of fifteen hours.

And him? Nineteen hours!

"Is it because Brother Jiang is the top freshman?" Xu Haoran laughed, "That's why the teachers are so strict with him."

"Maybe." Jiang Ye shook his head and smiled.

Is it just because he was the top freshman? Not necessarily.

"Most likely, it's for the freshman competition in three months, right?" Jiang Ye thought to himself, "Teacher Zhu also hopes that I can achieve a good ranking."

Will win!
Jiang Ye was full of confidence.

"Brother Jiang, where in Xishan Province are you from?" a freshman named Deng Yunfei asked with a sweet voice.

Jiang Ye gave him a strange look.

Why does that voice sound a bit effeminate?

“Ancheng,” he said truthfully.

"Anjo?"

"Where is that? I've never heard of it."

"It's a small mountain town in Xishan Province." Someone took out their phone to check and was quite surprised.

Xishan Province is an underdeveloped province.

A student from a backward town in a backward province came to Wuhan University in Penglai and achieved the top score among the freshmen.

What's the difference between this and a fairy tale?
"Brother Jiang!"

Deng Yunfei smiled even more brightly and said in a sweet voice, "From now on, you're my buddy. I'm quite wealthy, so feel free to come to me if you have any difficulties."

"Hmm, you can call me Brother Jiang, or Jiang Ye, either is fine." Jiang Ye felt a chill run down his spine.

"Haha, okay, then I'll call you Jiang Ye." Deng Yunfei then toned it down considerably.

Jiang Ye didn't say anything more.

Everyone has a different personality, and as someone from humble beginnings, he needs to learn to accept it.

Deng Yunfei, ranked 12th among the freshmen, is quite formidable.

Jiang Ye actually really wanted to make friends like that.

As for why the other party was willing to befriend him because of his potential, that's perfectly understandable.

If you don't demonstrate your potential, do you expect someone to have the "discerning eye" to recognize your talent?

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Even Chen Zilu only agreed to help Jiang Ye after seeing his rapid progress.

To gain the appreciation of a mentor, you must first be outstanding enough.

"By the way, Jiang Ye."

"Did you challenge the Starry Sky Rank yesterday?" Deng Yunfei suddenly asked.

"Not yet." Jiang Ye shook his head.

"Go and give it a try!" Deng Yunfei said, flicking his pinky finger. "Last night, I got ten consecutive wins, it was awesome!"

"Ten consecutive wins?" Jiang Ye's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded, "Okay, I'll try it when I get back."

"Also, don't forget to customize the star weapons and armor."

Deng Yunfei thoughtfully reminded him, "We can customize these for free, but they must be completed within one month, otherwise they will be invalid."

"I know, thank you."

Half an hour later, inside Manor No. 41.

"Star Weapon." Jiang Ye turned on his phone's projector.

Arrive at the customization page.

As a top-tier student, he can have a Xuan-level star weapon and a set of starry sky armor custom-made for free.

Everything will be delivered by someone else, so you won't have to lift a finger.

【Star Weapon Template - Spear (Mystic Rank)】

【Tyrannosaurus Rex】

【Giant Eagle】

[Yang Dragon Breaks Yin]

There are many types of spears, each with its own characteristics. Some are extremely heavy and powerful, making them suitable for fierce attacks.

Some are more delicate and resilient, making them more suitable for women.

Jiang Ye spent a lot of time and effort to finally select a template:
【Black Dragon - Dawn】

An image unfolds. It shows a large spear, entirely black and gold, with a jet-black shaft coiled with nine dark dragons, while the spearhead is crafted from sunstone, resembling the first rays of dawn, dazzling and unparalleled.

"This is it!" Jiang Ye made his choice.

Subsequently, Jiang Ye customized a set of Starry Sky Armor on the customization page.

The free customizable Starry Sky Armor offers no choice; there's only one style available, and it's a Yellow-tier armor.

Clearly, the price of the Star Armor far exceeds that of the Star Weapon.

Even top-tier students can only get custom-made yellow-tier battle armor for free.

As for higher prices? That would cost money.

Jiang Ye glanced at it briefly and was immediately shocked: "Mysterious-rank Starry Sky Armor, 1 million points?"

Horror!
After the customization was completed, Jiang Ye went to the main villa.

Open the mobile projection page.

"Great Sun Spear Technique." Jiang Ye opened the tutorial page for this weapon technique.

A video of a virtual human figure was projected.

"The Great Sun Spear Technique is fierce and domineering, as powerful as the blazing sun in the sky. Practitioners must have a magnanimous heart," the virtual avatar introduced, before beginning to practice with the spear.

Jiang Ye studied diligently.

Half an hour later.

"Wow~!"

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh~!" Jiang Ye held a wooden pole and moved swiftly through the garden.

He used a wooden pole as a spear, constantly changing his techniques such as thrusting, stabbing, sweeping, chopping, and parrying.

If Zhu Honglie were here...

You will be surprised to find that Jiang Ye's marksmanship has begun to show signs of rust.

After only watching the instructional material once, Jiang Ye went from a complete novice in marksmanship to a proficient one.

Although it is only in its initial form, it is already quite remarkable.

It should be understood that for ordinary people, any martial art requires years of practice to gradually become proficient.

But Jiang Ye? It was only half an hour.

This is not only due to his Grade C Xuan Body, but also because Jiang Ye's comprehension has surpassed that of ordinary people by an immeasurable amount.

"When the spear is thrust out, it must be like an arrow released from a bow, abandoning all hesitation!"

"The 'Dragon Raises Its Head' technique emphasizes using the opponent's force against them. It may seem light and easy, but it actually contains the power to overturn rivers and seas." Jiang Ye silently pondered the teaching content, and the wooden stick in his hand seemed to transform into a real spear, sweeping out horizontally.

"boom!"

This shot produced a rapid sonic boom in the air.

"Whoosh~" "Whoosh!" Jiang Ye continued practicing, completely absorbed in shooting.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, several hours had passed.

It wasn't until the sun set that Jiang Ye realized he had unknowingly cultivated for a whole day.

Look towards the panel.

[Technique]

Star Martial Cultivation Method: Perfection
Eight Thunder Sound Fist: Perfection
Star Martial Arts Advancement Technique: Mastery (32%)

Nine Stars Stepping on the Stars: Beginner (4%)

Great Sun Spear Technique: Beginner (0→30%)

-

"30%?" Jiang Ye laughed.

This is his current cultivation speed.

You can learn the basics of marksmanship in just two or three days.

Of course, this is inseparable from the fact that he has already reached the first breakthrough, breaking the shackles of the life level, and the basic spear technique is not difficult to learn.

The truly difficult part of this advanced Xuan-level spear technique is reaching the stage of mastery and perfection.

At that time, Jiang Ye might even get a glimpse of the glory of the number one winner in the All-Star Battle.

"Buzz!"

Just then, the bracelet vibrated slightly.

"Beep~" Jiang Ye turned on the bracelet projection.

[Jiang Ye, your dinner has been delivered to the door of No. 41 in the Tianzi area. Please enjoy it promptly.]

"Dinner's ready." Jiang Ye put down the wooden pole.

Jiang Ye turned around and walked towards the main gate of the manor.

All students in the top tier receive free meals.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all provided with extremely generous and delicious martial arts meals, completely free of charge.

Of course, rare ingredients like Xuan-level martial ginseng won't appear, but tiger gall and whale eyes are quite common.

Most importantly, the cooking methods for these foods are extremely exquisite, and they taste like delicacies.

After dinner, Jiang Ye returned to the main villa.

Standing in front of the virtual cabin.

"Independent Starry Sky? Starry Sky Rank?"

Jiang Ye muttered to himself, "I wonder what level of difficulty this is."

The school stipulates that a reward of 500 million federal dollars will be given to those who break through to the next level.

Today, Zhu Honglie also said that if Jiang Ye can break into the first tier, he will also receive an extra reward.

Jiang Ye wants to give it a try tonight.

"Let's see if we can make it to the next level." Jiang Ye crawled into the virtual cabin.

hum!
My consciousness suddenly sank.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a familiar virtual starry world.

However, this time, Jiang Ye was presented with the option of 'Independent Starry Sky'.

"Enter." Jiang Ye clicked on that option.

[Student Identity: Jiang Ye, Freshman Class of 2023-2026, Penglai University]

[Rank: 0]

[Number of Matches: 0]

Win rate: 0%

[Matching can begin!]

-

A panel appeared.

Jiang Ye glanced at it and looked down at the panel.

There were also a few lines of smaller text.
【Kind tips】

[1. Once matching begins, you will be randomly matched with students from the top ten universities and the 25-university alliance.]

[2. After reaching a certain level, you can actively challenge all students from the top ten prestigious universities and the twenty-five-university alliance.]

[3. Competition Rules: The winner gains 1 point, the loser loses 1 point. After ten consecutive wins, 2 points are added for each additional win. Sufficient points will allow you to advance in rank.]

4. User Privacy Agreement: By entering the independent star system, you allow us to record all your battle activities.

Read the rules carefully.

"As expected of a world jointly built by the top ten universities and the alliance of twenty-five universities, the rules are very comprehensive." Jiang Ye nodded to himself.

He already knew.

To reach level 1, you need to earn 100 points.

You need to win at least 55 games.

If they lose halfway through, they will need to play more matches.

"Start matching." Jiang Ye clicked the match button.

His eyes held a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

If he were matched with students from the top ten universities? He would definitely be no match for them.

After all, even the weakest students from the top ten universities are roughly equivalent to the level of Shen Changxi and Liu Wanxiao.

【Matching】

【Successful match! 】

The next moment, Jiang Ye's body suddenly plummeted downwards.

"Boom!" On a starry sky arena.

Jiang Ye and another figure appeared.

"Um?!"

When Jiang Ye looked up and saw the figure on the other side of the arena, he was stunned.

"Monitor?"

"You're also in matchmaking?" Jiang Ye asked in surprise.

Opposite them stood a proud and aloof young woman with snow-white legs.

She froze the moment she saw Jiang Ye: "Jiang Ye? It's you?"

"I was surprised too." Jiang Ye shook his head and smiled.

Unexpectedly, the first opponent I was matched with was my old squad leader, Zhao Qingli.

"Now that we've been matched, let's begin." Zhao Qingli said coldly, looking at him, "I also want to see just how strong you really are now!"

A hint of competition flashed in the girl's clear black and white eyes.

Also from Ancheng, she is currently only a second-class student, ranked 290th among the new students.

Jiang Ye, on the other hand, is now a top-tier student.

Zhao Qingli was indeed happy for Jiang Ye.

But deep down, she was somewhat resentful.

Regardless of family background or talent, she should rightfully have Jiang Ye under her control.

“Let’s begin!” Zhao Qingli looked at Jiang Ye.

"Alright!" Jiang Ye smiled, a fighting spirit appearing in his eyes.

He also wanted to know how much of a difference there was between him and the aloof class monitor who had suppressed him for most of the year!

Zhao Qingli's monthly sales reach millions, her strength is absolutely beyond doubt.

Jiang Ye was not to be underestimated in the slightest.

"Begin the battle."

Both sides should make preparations simultaneously.
