In the game "High Martial Arts," players start with the blessing of the Martial God.

Look closely!

A sharp shout interrupted Ji Ming's thoughts, and he quickly focused his attention. This was the Star King Body Instructor, whom even money couldn't buy.

Luo Zhao moved slowly but with immense weight. Each step he took kicked up a cloud of dust, and his breathing was like a loud drumbeat. Ji Ming, standing beside him, felt it most keenly, especially as the gravity field of Stellar Transformation made the inspiration in his heart burst forth like sparks.

Besides his talent, Ji Ming's comprehension was also quite good. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to level up this body-refining martial art to level 10 before his identity card was activated. He had only been struggling because he had no one to guide him before, but this time it was just the right time. All the doubts he had accumulated in his heart were resolved, and he began to practice along with them.

"The form of the Star King?"

A student noticed what was happening and exclaimed in a low voice, "Instructor Luo even knows this martial art?"

Unlike other body-refining martial arts techniques, the Starry Sky King Body is quite special. If one has not truly learned this martial art, it is difficult to instruct others. For example, Liu Shuo only gave a few pointers based on his superior realm.

"What incredible luck!"

A boy suddenly frowned and cursed, his expression full of envy and jealousy. The boy next to him teased, "Liu Shitong, I remember you weren't ranked much higher than Ji Ming, right? Don't get pushed down in the end-of-month quiz."

"Hmph, dream on!"

Liu Shitong frowned, staring intently at Ji Ming's back, fearing that he might suddenly make some breakthrough. Perhaps some people might look down on Ji Ming, but no one would underestimate the Star King Body.

He didn't usually care much about the rankings, but not this time. He had relatives working in the municipal government, and as everyone expected, Shirakawa City would indeed be supporting martial artists, and their school would definitely be among them.

However, resources are limited, and in the end, the best of the best will be chosen. In such cases, the fewer competitors, the better.

"Fortunately, his life force is weaker than mine." Liu Shitong breathed a sigh of relief and regained some confidence.

Liu Shitong glanced around, focusing on several competitors whose rankings were roughly equal. He hardened his heart, "No way, I'll increase the dosage when I get back!"

"Rou Rou, look! I never expected Instructor Luo to have practiced this self-torture martial art?!" A chubby-cheeked little girl stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Beside her stood a beautiful woman in red, named Song Zhirou. She consistently ranked among the top three martial arts students at Baichuan No. 1 Middle School. True to her name, even her voice was gentle.

"Xiao Yao, this Instructor Luo is no ordinary person. You must take his guidance seriously."

"Where did our Shirakawa City get such powerful martial artists?" Gu Yao pouted. It was a shame she had awakened the "martial artist" profession; otherwise, wouldn't it have been much cooler to learn magic from her grandfather?

"Who said this person is from Shirakawa City?"

Song Zhirou shook her head. Martial arts were indeed not prevalent in Baichuan City, but the new mayor was definitely not included. Because of her grandfather, she had seen this Instructor Luo from afar, and at that time he was standing right next to the new mayor!

His exact identity is unknown, but he must be a big shot, definitely stronger than Vice Principal Liu Shuo. If the mayor hadn't intended to support Shirakawa Takeshi, how could someone like him have come to teach them?

Out of the corner of her eye, she inadvertently caught sight of Ji Ming's figure, but she didn't pay much attention to it. The Starry Sky King's body was indeed strong, but the martial arts she cultivated were not weak either. Moreover, there was a qualitative difference in the life strength between the two, so Ji Ming was almost impossible to threaten her.

She had already successfully broken through to the Jade Purity Realm long ago!

Thinking of the Star King Body, Song Zhirou sighed. This martial art is only practiced by students from average families because its greatest advantage is that it requires far fewer resources than other martial arts of the same quality!

For people like them, choosing other martial arts of the same quality would be more cost-effective, but those who dared to choose the Star King Body and make a name for themselves in it deserve respect.

Recalling the pain she felt when she stubbornly tried it back then, Song Zhirou couldn't help but shudder. She never wanted to experience it a second time in her life.

……

"call!"

Unbeknownst to him, sweat soaked Ji Ming's clothes, but the scalding heat emanating from his body immediately dried them off, and so the cycle repeated itself.

He didn't know how much time had passed when a sharp pain, accompanied by extreme hunger, suddenly woke him up.

"hiss!"

Realizing his current state, Ji Ming did not hesitate at all and poured a vial of "Origin No. 3 Potion" into his mouth, which made him feel much more relaxed.

"Second-order?"

Luo Zhao's slightly surprised voice rang in his ears. He looked up and nodded in response to the other person's shocked gaze. This was something he had never intended to hide. In the Great Xia Kingdom, only by showing his talent could he obtain more resources.

Luo Zhao was silent for a moment, then a smile appeared on his lips: "Interesting, you're quite good!"

"Little guy, your body has reached its limit. Don't do any more body training today."

After saying that, he didn't say anything more, patted Ji Ming on the shoulder, and turned to leave.

Only then did the latter have the energy to check the panel.

【Star King Body: lv.11 (63/100)】

Unbelievable!

Ji Ming couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice that he had gained nearly sixty points of proficiency in such a short time, saving him at least half a month's worth of time.

Of course, he understood that the main reason for his great gains was the [God of War's Blessing]. Otherwise, he might have gotten stuck while practicing and wouldn't have been able to keep up with Instructor Luo's pace.

Besides, this is the first time I've received guidance from a martial arts technique of the same origin. If there were future ones, it would be impossible for me to improve so quickly.

"But it's definitely much more efficient than figuring it out myself, right?" Ji Ming murmured to himself, wondering if he would ever have such an opportunity again.

Today was not a good day to continue body training, so Ji Ming turned to practicing the Qian Tian Yi Qi Gong.

Unlike the diverse choices of martial arts techniques, almost all martial artists use the "Qian Tian Yi Qi Gong" as their basic training method. This basic technique, which has been modified countless times, is suitable for everyone's physique and is extremely powerful, providing the most solid foundation for low-level martial artists.

The main focus of mortal warriors is to temper their physique, refining all the muscles, bones, skin, flesh, and blood in their body. Each advancement in realm signifies another tempering of the body. The further one progresses, the more difficult the tempering becomes, and the greater the increase in strength gained. Ten temperings represent the limit of the human body.

The "Qian Tian Yi Qi Gong" has a profound purpose, is balanced and peaceful, and does not have any bias. It is said that practicing this skill to a high level can increase one's affinity with the primordial energy of heaven and earth, which can be regarded as an indirect enhancement of talent. However, unfortunately, very few people can actually achieve this.

Of course, it's too early to consider these things; he's only scratched the surface at this point.

[Qian Tian Yi Qi Gong: lv.4 (70/100)]

After an entire afternoon, until school ended, Ji Ming finally smiled bitterly and realized that his proficiency had only increased by three points. This thing was much more difficult than the Starry Sky King Body Technique. In any case, no one in the entire No. 1 High School had ever heard of anyone who had mastered it to the second level, let alone other high schools in Baichuan City.

This technique is divided into three small stages, and since breaking through to level 4, Ji Ming's cultivation has become incredibly slow, ten times slower than the previous three levels!

"Amin, let's go!"

Xu Wei, sporting a round belly, ran over and said, "Congratulations! I didn't expect Instructor Luo to have learned the Star King Body Technique."

Ji Ming nodded. He was also surprised by this. The most important thing was that the other party was willing to use his martial arts skills to guide him. This treatment was much better than the few words of guidance that other classmates would give him.

"Perhaps it's because everyone practices this self-torture martial art?"

Few people would practice this unless they had a serious illness. Other top-tier martial arts are much gentler than this. Others may not know, but he was forced to do it. If he didn't practice the Star King Body, this damn "strong will" would be useless!

"Am I just asking for trouble?" Ji Ming said with a wry smile.

Xu Wei looked at Ji Ming with a sigh. His brother's financial resources were only average at Baichuan No. 1 High School, but his work ethic was second to none. If it weren't for his "late-stage" talent, his chances of getting into a prestigious university would have been much higher.
