Chapter 203 The Genius Cup Arrives (Part 2)

Penglai University, Tianzi area.

Manor No. 41.

After returning home, Jiang Ye quickly took his gun and went to the training room.

"Great Sun Spear Technique." Jiang Ye glanced at the panel.

【Great Sun Spear Technique: Mastery (29%)】

There is a major bottleneck between 29% and 30%.

Why do you say that?
Because Jiang Ye has now mastered the forty-seventh form of spear technique.

Once you master one more spear technique and reach the forty-eighth form, you can truly unleash the fourth ultimate spear technique – Burning the Sea.

Taking this small step is extremely difficult.

Each ultimate move represents a major bottleneck.

When he first reached the bottleneck of mastering his marksmanship, he was stuck on the third ultimate move. Without Chen Zilu, he might have been stuck there for months.

The same is true today.

Jiang Ye had fought for more than ten hours in the White Dragon Court but failed to break through, which shows how difficult it was.

"Enlightenment Jade." Jiang Ye took out the piece of jade, his eyes filled with anticipation: "It's all up to you now."

He opened his mouth and took the jade into his mouth.

"Buzz!"

In just a few seconds, a wisp of divinity spread throughout his body through his mouth.

A strange feeling enveloped Jiang Ye.

He once again entered that clear and tranquil state of mind, as if countless flashes of inspiration were appearing in his mind.

"Wow!"

"Whoosh!" Jiang Ye gripped his spear, took a step, and felt the flow of spear techniques.

shhhhhh!
The spear tip swept across, creating hundreds of spear shadows at an astonishing speed.

Gradually, the momentum of the spear increased, and it entered the range of the fourth ultimate move.

In the past, whenever Jiang Ye arrived here, he would feel tremendous resistance.

This prevented him from successfully unleashing his ultimate move.

But this time, things are different.

"Burning the sea."

"The fourth move of the Great Sun Spear Technique." A flash of inspiration struck Jiang Ye: "The essence may not lie in 'burning,' but in 'the sea'?"

"Sea of ​​Sunlight".

"Perhaps I've been pursuing the wrong direction all along?" Jiang Ye thought to himself.

Jiang Ye suddenly seemed to have grasped a key point.

His marksmanship began to slowly change.

One shot.

Two shots.

三枪
This change is not obvious, but rather subtle, fundamentally altering the way he draws his gun.

Ten shots!

Twenty shots!
Thirty shots.
When Jiang Ye successfully fired his sixtieth shot, these subtle changes finally erupted.

This completely revolutionized Jiang Ye's marksmanship.

"Whoosh~" In the next moment, Jiang Ye's gun became blazing and vast.

A vast, ocean-like burst of spear light swept out, then ignited rapidly like flames, forming a sea of ​​scorching sunlight within a radius of several hundred meters.

Not only that.

A bright orange sun slowly rose from this sea of ​​sunlight.

Then it erupted instantly.

The terrifying energy was unleashed like a nuclear bomb, incinerating everything in its path.

"boom!!"

A deafening vibration resounded.

"Boom! Boom! Boom"

The entire training room was filled with loud and continuous popping sounds.

Fortunately, the training room was made of a cosmic fluid material, which was constantly melted, cracked, and then quickly restored.

This process lasted for hundreds of rounds before finally stopping.

[The Great Sun Spear Technique's Fourth Ultimate Move—Burning the Sea!]

"Shh!"

Jiang Ye suddenly opened his eyes, pulling himself out of that clear and empty state of mind.

"Breakthrough!?"

"The fourth ultimate move can finally be executed in its entirety." Jiang Ye's eyes shone with excitement: "What incredible power!"

He had also felt the destructive power just now.

If it weren't for the practice room...

It is likely that an area within a radius of several hundred meters will be reduced to ruins.

This is the true power of the fourth ultimate move!

"The Great Sun Burns the Sea, and it can erupt repeatedly." Jiang Ye was terrified: "It can unleash its power hundreds of times in just a few seconds."

"With such power, even a late-stage second-stage powerhouse probably couldn't withstand it, right?" he secretly guessed.

Without triggering other buffs.

Jiang Ye's current combat strength is sufficient to reach the mid-stage of the second breakthrough level.

As for the late stage of the second breakthrough? Jiang Ye didn't know, but he figured even a strong person like that wouldn't dare to rashly take his move.

Jiang Ye looked at the control panel.

【Great Sun Spear Technique: Mastery (29%) → (30%)】

"As expected." A smile appeared on Jiang Ye's lips: "It truly lives up to its reputation as the Enlightenment Jade; it really allowed me to break through instantly."

A major bottleneck has been overcome!

Jiang Ye could sense it.

Without the spiritual light brought by the Enlightenment Jade, he might not have been able to break through even after ten or a hundred days.

Because we went the wrong way before!

If you've taken the wrong path, how can you possibly achieve your goal no matter how hard you try?

"What exactly is the origin of this Enlightenment Jade?" Jiang Ye was increasingly shocked: "It can actually help people break through major bottlenecks, which is truly unheard of."

suddenly.

Jiang Ye paused slightly, as if he had thought of something.

"Such a wondrous object must be very important to Chen Zilu, right?"

"She gave it to me, doesn't she need it herself?" Jiang Ye asked, somewhat puzzled. "Or does Senior Sister have more than one of these treasures?"

Jiang Ye was pondering this.

Buzz!

"Hmm?" Jiang Ye suddenly felt his phone vibrate and looked down at it.

Caller ID: "Zhao Qingli".

"Beep!" The call was connected.

A beautiful young woman, dressed in a long, colorful silk dress, with snow-white skin and long, straight legs, appeared.

"Jiang Ye," Zhao Qingli said, looking at him, "I heard you've returned from your studies at Bailong University?"

"I just got back." Jiang Ye nodded and smiled. "How did you know?"

“I heard it from my sister,” Zhao Qingli said.

"Your sister? Zhao Jingxue?" Jiang Ye was taken aback.

He immediately realized what was happening.

Zhao Jingxue's teacher is Chen Yuntian.

Zhu Honglie couldn't keep the fact that he had obtained the Heavenly Rank inheritance a secret, and he spread the news as soon as he returned.

Chen Yuntian must have known immediately.

"I heard you obtained a top-tier Heavenly Rank inheritance." Zhao Qingli blinked. "Even White Dragon University was shocked by you."

"Uh, it's not that exaggerated."

Jiang Ye shook his head and smiled.

He could imagine that after Teacher Zhu returned this time, she would probably give it a big shout-out.

That makes sense, after all, Jiang Ye really made Zhu Honglie look good this time.

"So that means you really obtained a high-grade Heavenly Rank inheritance?" A look of surprise appeared in Zhao Qingli's beautiful eyes: "That amazing?"

"I have something even more amazing," Jiang Ye said with a mysterious smile.

"Even more powerful?" Zhao Qingli was taken aback and asked curiously, "What is it?"

Jiang Ye said, "I obtained not just one, but two top-tier Heavenly Rank inheritances."

Zhao Qingli suddenly widened her beautiful eyes.

Although she didn't know the specifics of the White Dragon Court, she was familiar with its rules.

Acquire two Heavenly Rank inheritances? Unheard of!

"How did you do that?" Zhao Qingli couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe it's because I'm better?" Jiang Ye laughed.

"I thought you were going to say you were lucky," Zhao Qingli rolled her eyes.

She didn't continue the topic, but instead asked, "Would you like to come back to Ancheng with me for the fourteen-day winter break?"

"Winter break?" Jiang Ye was taken aback.

Then reacted.

The winter break at Penglai University is from mid-February to the end of February, lasting fourteen days.

This is considered quite lenient; for example, at Hakuryu University, winter break is estimated to be less than seven days.

"winter vacation."

"I'm not going back." Jiang Ye thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm going to participate in the Genius Cup in two months. I'm going to give it my all in these two months."

"Aren't you going back for the New Year?" Zhao Qingli asked, somewhat disappointed. "After the Genius Cup ends," Jiang Ye replied with a smile. "I might go back around the Federation's anniversary days."

Confederation Day is May 1st, commemorating the date of the founding of the Confederation.

There will be a five-day holiday.

“Okay, then I’ll go with you, and you have to listen to me.” A hint of anticipation flashed in Zhao Qingli’s eyes.

"Okay." Jiang Ye nodded. Since he had refused once, he couldn't refuse a second time.

"I wish you a successful victory in the Genius Cup two months from now!" Zhao Qingli added.

"You trust me that much?" Jiang Ye smiled.

Zhao Qingli said coldly, "If you can't win the championship, I won't sell you cultivation resources anymore."

"."

"Then it seems I have no choice but to win the championship," Jiang Ye said helplessly.

"I was just kidding." Seeing that he didn't refute her, Zhao Qingli quickly said, "Even if we don't win the championship, I'll still sell it."

“I’m not lying to you,” Jiang Ye said seriously, “because I have to win the championship.”

"Okay, then I wish you success."

soon.

The two parties ended the communication.

“Time.” Jiang Ye glanced at the clock.

"Ten hours have already passed?" Jiang Ye smiled.

With the blessing of the Enlightenment Jade, he was completely unaware of the passage of time.

"Ten hours to break through the major bottleneck in marksmanship."

"It's already very fast." Jiang Ye thought to himself, "Although there is still the accumulation from the previous period of time, without the Enlightenment Divine Jade, I would never have been able to break through."

"There is a divine jade for enlightenment."

"My marksmanship is sure to make great progress."

Jiang Ye looked at the control panel.

Fourth floor

"The next two months."

"Besides practicing the True God Scripture, I will focus on training my spear and archery skills," Jiang Ye secretly planned. "I can also practice the Nine Luminaries Star Stepping and Heavenly Tribulation Fist appropriately."

The Star Piercing Arrow technique is mainly used to trigger the 'Void Search' passive effect.

Although Jiang Ye now also has ranged attack capabilities.

For example, the second move of the Great Sun Spear Technique, "Blazing Sun Across the Sky," can be used for long-range attacks, but at most a hundred meters.

Furthermore, the farther away it is, the more its power will decrease.

However, archery does not have this concern.

As for the Nine Luminaries Stepping on Stars and the Heavenly Tribulation Fist, they are for dealing with unforeseen circumstances.

Even without weapons, punches and kicks are equally important.

"correct."

"The Cold Sun Spear Technique." Jiang Ye looked at the last technique.

This spear technique was improved upon by him on the fourth level of the Martial Arts Ladder using the "Great Sun Spear Technique".

However, it remains in its nascent stage to this day.

Jiang Ye had found it quite difficult to improve the design before.

"With the Enlightenment Jade, perfecting it should be much easier."

"If I can perfect the Cold Sun Spear Technique before the Genius Cup arrives," Jiang Ye pondered, "then my combat strength will also be greatly improved."

Thinking about this, he suddenly felt troubled.

There's so much to do these past two months!
Marksmanship, archery, cultivation techniques, fist techniques, leg techniques—which should you focus on?
Think for a moment.

"do not care."

"I want them all!" Jiang Ye sat down cross-legged.

He continued to cultivate the "White Dragon True God Scripture".

I continued practicing until 6 p.m.

[White Dragon True God Scripture (Part 1): Beginner (3%) → (4%)]

For the next period of time, Jiang Ye's life returned to normal.

The day after returning to Penglai University, Zhu Honglie devised a new training plan for Jiang Ye.

Two hours of consultation and one hour of practical training every day.

He devoted the rest of his time to cultivation.

This is because after Jiang Ye broke through to the second breakthrough, his martial arts foundation was exhausted, and even if he engaged in more actual combat, he would not be able to unleash his full strength.

How to accumulate martial arts knowledge?

The only word to describe it is "ascetic practice".

Of course, a training plan is never static.

Every week, Zhu Honglie would create a new training plan for Jiang Ye based on his individual circumstances and provide him with numerous guidance.

This is the benefit of having a teacher.

If it weren't for Zhu Honglie...

With the help of external objects such as the Enlightenment Jade and Dao Intent Resonance, Jiang Ye's improvement was not difficult.

However, it is difficult to make the best use of resources.

With Zhu Honglie providing guidance, the results were naturally different.

Without a doubt, Jiang Ye's strength will grow explosively in the coming days.

Time flies.

Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On April 18, in the evening, a group of students walked out of the Starry Sky Teaching Building.

This includes Jiang Ye, Shen Changxi, Liu Wanxiao, and Yun Qing'er.

"Another S-class operation completed, that feels great!"

Liu Wanxiao stretched.

As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Ye beside him and said, "Jiang Ye, the two of us are working together more and more smoothly, we're really killing like crazy."

“Indeed.” Jiang Ye smiled slightly.

In the past two months, Jiang Ye has carried out two S-level combat missions.

They all teamed up with Liu Wanxiao.

He was in charge of the indiscriminate killing, while Liu Wanxiao was in charge of the cacophony.

"Sigh!" Liu Wanxiao suddenly said with a bitter face, "You're too strong, it makes me feel like I don't even exist!"

"Isn't it good to take you flying?" Jiang Ye smiled.

“But the rating will be worse.” Liu Wanxiao shook his head helplessly, but didn’t care: “But being able to get hundreds of thousands of points for free is not bad.”

An S-level operation is defined as an operation whose rating isn't ridiculously bad.

They can earn hundreds of thousands of points, which is equivalent to several million Federal Credits.

"Eno."

Suddenly, Shen Changxi asked curiously, "What is your strength now?"

"Just reached the mid-stage of the second breakthrough." Jiang Ye smiled.

"Second breakthrough to the mid-stage?" Shen Changxi nodded: "I'll be close too."

Two months ago, after Jiang Ye returned from her advanced studies at Bailong University, she broke through to the second breakthrough level.

Now, Shen Changxi's strength has also undergone tremendous changes.

"Jiang Ye, are you confident you can make it into the top five in the 25 Schools Genius Cup?" Shen Changxi asked with a smile.

"Top five?" Jiang Ye smiled, not answering. "And you? Are you confident?"

“I have a little.” Shen Changxi blinked her red eyes.

Just saying.

"Buzz!" "Buzz!"

Several people's phones vibrated simultaneously.

"Hmm?" Jiang Ye, Shen Changxi, and Yun Qing'er exchanged glances.

They all realized something.

Quickly open the phone.

"Beep!" A projection appeared.

Jiang Ye, a freshman from the class of 2023-2026 at Penglai University.

[The 2327th session of the 25-School Alliance Genius Cup is about to begin. Please read the competition rules carefully and prepare for the competition.]

"The Genius Cup!" Jiang Ye's eyes lit up slightly: "It's finally here."
