High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 63 Second Monthly Exam

Data is the most direct manifestation of strength.

Over the course of this month, his strength has undergone a dramatic transformation.

First is the method of refining, which serves as the foundation.

The "Elementary Imperial Body Forging Method" has been perfected, and the effects of actively cultivating it are negligible for him, who has already advanced to the second level of martial artist.

This afternoon's arduous practice proved this point.

Qin Feng has planned a clear path for himself.

He has a great hope that next year, before the next Starry Sky Inter-School League Senior Tournament, he can push his vitality index to the limit of a Level 3 martial artist.

At that time, he will have the opportunity to strive for the legendary highest honor for students of the Morning Star School – “Morning Star General”.

Secondly, there's his method of killing.

After "Thousand Armies Spear" is promoted to "Mastery", the upper limit of proficiency is increased from 1000 points to 10000 points.

His proficiency increased by more than 100 points after a whole afternoon of intense ranked matches.

With the direct attack of "A Thousand Armies Repel" and the ultimate defense-breaking ability of "Flowing Light Chasing Shadows," combined with the unpredictable movement of "Wandering Dragon," his current combat system has taken initial shape.

It is versatile in both offense and defense, and suitable for both close and long-range combat.

However, when facing chaotic battles or attacking extremely powerful enemies, you must learn the third killing move: having a thousand troops surrounding you will give you absolute confidence.

After finishing his work, Qin Feng closed the panel, his mind at peace.

The path is clear; all that remains is to walk it steadfastly and resolutely.

He gave himself a year!
The goal is to reach the limit of a level three martial artist within a year, seize the Qiming General Star, and truly lay the first step into the Star Sea.

……

The monthly exam arrived as scheduled the next day.

The morning's academic exams went smoothly.

For Qin Feng, whose mental strength had already been enhanced by learning the "Emperor's Meditation Method," these subjects that required a lot of memorization and understanding were no longer difficult.

The practical skills test in the afternoon caused quite a stir in the class.

The first item is the vitality index test.

The students lined up and took turns stepping onto the sophisticated testing instrument, which resembled a small teleportation chamber.

"Beep—Chu Lan, Vitality Index: 9.821."

"Drip—Shi Potian, Vitality Index: 10.003."

"Beep—Qian Duoduo, vitality index: 8.055."

One by one, numbers representing the class's top level appeared on the screen, eliciting murmurs of surprise.

Before the last real battle, Shi Potian had already quietly broken through the threshold of a level two martial artist, which was not unexpected.

When Qin Feng stepped onto the testing device, almost everyone's eyes were drawn to him.

They all wanted to know the physical attributes of this "technical" player who had single-handedly killed a level 14.5 monster with his superb marksmanship.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Qin Feng stood still, and the instrument hatch closed.

A red light slowly swept across his body from top to bottom.

After a few seconds.

"drop--"

A crisp notification sound.

On the display screen, a number slowly appeared and finally froze.

【10.067】

When this number appeared, the entire testing room fell into an eerie, deathly silence.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the number in disbelief.

10.067!

He is even more advanced than Shi Potian, who just broke through!
"A level two martial artist! Qin Feng... his vitality index has also broken through 10.0?"

"My God! I thought... I always thought he beat Chloe purely because of his marksmanship!"

"So, his physical abilities have already reached the standard of a level two martial artist!"

"A monster... a true monster! He has reached the pinnacle in both cultivation and killing techniques!"

"I've made such rapid progress in just one month."

"The resource effects of a Class C contract?"

"Not only that, he is very diligent. He arrives at the martial arts room at five o'clock every day and has been doing it for two months. I have been doing it for half a month."

Discussions and uproars rose and fell.

If Qin Feng was previously seen by everyone as a "dark horse" and "genius" who made up for his shortcomings with extraordinary comprehension.

Now, his last weakness has been completely overcome, and he has even surpassed most people.

Qin Feng's image in everyone's eyes has quietly completed its final transformation.

That was a true, undisputed, all-encompassing, and flawless "monster."

Facing the shocked and awe-inspiring gazes directed at him from all around, Qin Feng's expression remained unchanged.

"The passive boost is really quite effective."

“There is a slight improvement every day.”

"Many grains of sand make a tower, and many small contributions make a robe." Qin Feng silently calculated in his mind.

He stepped off the testing device and returned to the group.

The second practical subject is simulated combat.

This time, the students' opponents are no longer each other, but rather the school's mentors who will personally assess and guide the students' practical skills one-on-one.

When it was Qin Feng's turn to be assessed, he saw that familiar figure.

Goatee.

Professor Gu Yue.

"bring it on."

Professor Gu Yue gestured for Qin Feng to open the subspace network and enter the Imperial Arena with his consciousness. He then invited Qin Feng to a friendly battle.

With a shift in consciousness, the two appeared on the Starry Sky Arena.

Vitality index is locked at 10.0 for all.

"Ready, kid?"

Professor Gu Yue looked at him with a smile. He was unarmored and held a standard-issue long spear in his hand.

"Ready, Professor."

Qin Feng bowed in salute; he was also unarmored and held a standard-issue long spear in his hand.

Before the battle began, Professor Gu Yue did not rush to make a move, but instead, with great interest, pulled up Qin Feng's arena data.

When he saw Qin Feng's ranking record of "205 wins and 168 losses", totaling nearly 400 matches, even he couldn't help but show a hint of genuine admiration in his eyes.

"Not bad, very good."

Professor Gu Yue stroked his beard.

"In the path of martial arts, talent is certainly important, but diligence is the only cornerstone that determines how far a person can go."

"It seems that you truly understand the meaning of the saying 'Heaven rewards diligence'."

"Let me see what kind of progress you've made after nearly four hundred bloody battles."

As soon as he finished speaking, the countdown ended.

Professor Gu Yue's figure moved.

There was no impressive display of force, no terrifying pressure.

He simply thrust out his spear.

However, this simple shot caused Qin Feng's pupils to suddenly contract.

That shot seemed to seal off all his room for maneuver, as if it contained some profound truth of the universe, leaving him with no way to avoid it or block it.

Qin Feng gritted his teeth and persevered, and the two engaged in a gunfight on the ring.

Professor Gu Yue is incredibly strong, possessing the rank of Fighter. Even though his vitality index is the same as Qin Feng's at 10.0, he could easily kill Qin Feng. However, he only used the Thousand Army Spear, pushing Qin Feng into a desperate situation move by move, constantly feeding Qin Feng with new moves.

……

The battle ended an hour later.

Qin Feng was defeated without any doubt.

However, when he left the Imperial Arena, his entire demeanor was completely transformed.

In the past hour, Professor Gu Yue used the Thousand Army Spear to fight Qin Feng, pointing out, analyzing and even forcibly "feeding" Qin Feng all his shortcomings and weaknesses in the most direct way.

This is a fighter-level "special treatment" that is more precious than any ascetic practice.

When Qin Feng opened the system panel again.

[Proficiency in "Thousand Armies Spear" +100]

[Proficiency in "Thousand Armies Spear" +100]

[Proficiency in "Thousand Armies Spear" +100]

[Method of Killing]:
Thousand-Army Spear (Mastery)

[Proficiency]: 412 / 10000
[Mastered the killer moves]: Thousands of troops flee in terror, swift and unpredictable attacks.

His marksmanship proficiency increased by a full 300 points during this "test"!
With 300 points, if he were to play the Imperial Arena non-stop, it would take him at least three or four days to understand these principles.

If you encounter a bottleneck, it may not be possible to achieve such improvement even in seven or eight days.

But under Professor Gu Yue's "hands-on" teaching, he gained such insight in just one hour.

With the skill level of Thousand Army Spear reaching "Mastery" at 412 points, I have taken another big step closer to the perfection of 10000 points.

Outside the martial arts room, the other students waited for an hour. When they saw Qin Feng walking out full of energy, and then Professor Gu Yue walking out with a smile, there was no longer any surprise or jealousy on their faces.

They've gotten used to it.

This monster named Qin Feng seemed to take all the special treatment he received for granted.

"Go back and review the play carefully, watch more replays, your marksmanship should be able to improve."

"You can't figure out many things in an hour."

"It wouldn't be excessive to spend a few days reviewing this battle."

Professor Gu Yue smiled and gave Qin Feng some pointers.

“Students understand.”

Qin Feng nodded and bowed in gratitude.
