From Martial Arts Dungeon to Master of Martial Arts

Mu Sheng slowly took a breath, and the memories of ten months of hard training flooded his mind. He gently swayed his body, making a "crackling" sound.

His bones and meridians were all strengthened.

Both strength and speed have increased several times.

This practice experience is equivalent to daily diligent study and hard work, and the positive enhancement of the body from this experience all comes back to the body itself.

In other words, his experience was equivalent to ten months of relentless, tireless practice.

"I am at least three times stronger now than I was before."

He flicked his hand in the air.

"Crack!" A loud explosion came out of nowhere.

Give it your all.

After a month of grueling battles in the dungeon, he had long since mastered the art of striking, making him a true martial artist specializing in striking techniques.

Although he's not considered a top player in Changshu, he's still a fairly skilled one.

He caught his breath as a doorway woven from vines appeared ahead.

Strengthening and depletion coexist, and I've still lost a lot of strength. Dealing with those flying eagles is still too physically demanding.

These eagles have maxed out their dodging skills.

If there isn't a specific area of ​​attack, like in the Tiger Slaying Technique dungeon where everyone rushes in at once, the difficulty here would increase dramatically.

"With my current strength, I can try to conquer the Tiger Slayer Blade dungeon again."

Mu Sheng wiped the eagle blood off the blade. With her body strengthened to a certain extent, the power of the Tiger-Slaying Blade would be multiplied.

But first, we need to see what the next stage of the Five Beasts Yuan Gong is like.

He stepped forward into the doorway.

Ancient trees still surrounded and sealed off the area, and on the grassland in the middle, a huge brown figure was lying on the ground.

As if sensing his arrival, the figure opened its eyes and roared at Mu Sheng.

"Roar!" Saliva spurted from the gaping maw.

"It really is a bear." Mu Sheng raised the wooden spike in her hand and continued to use the same method, shooting it into the brown bear's eyes.

A narrow sliver of sky.

The brown bear seemed to sense something and quickly lay down, and two wooden spikes flew directly over its head.

"Something's not right." Mu Sheng immediately sensed something was wrong.

The brown bear pounced on all fours towards Mu Sheng, its power as fierce as a tiger's.

Mu Sheng's expression changed, and she quickly jumped to the side.

The bear leaped directly over the spot where he had just stood, charged forward, and finally, with a powerful push from its paws, stopped abruptly, turned around, and pounced on Mu Sheng with the force of its hind legs.

The way these feet move as they rush is the way a deer runs!

Mu Sheng was pounced on by the bear and knocked to the ground.

This bear knows kung fu!

"Pfft!" He spat out a mouthful of blood. The force of the bear's paw, combined with the strength of the entire bear's body, directly crushed his chest.

The bear lunged at him with its jaws.

A sharp pain struck, and he fainted as everything went black.

Mu Sheng suddenly woke up, her back soaked in cold sweat, even though this wasn't the first time she had died.

But the pain never lessened.

"How do we fight this?" Mu Sheng asked in surprise and doubt, as the brown bear knew the Five Beasts Yuan Gong.

He felt dizzy and fell asleep on the bed, where he soon lost consciousness.

There's simply no time to experience the improvement in physical fitness in the real world.

...

In the morning, Mu Sheng got out of bed and moved her body, making a "clicking" sound.

He slowly exhaled, dressed himself neatly, and hurriedly walked outside.

The disciples of Zhenyuan Temple were walking towards the main hall in twos and threes.

Mingliu saw Musheng and quickly walked over, asking, "Musheng, how are your preparations going?"

Mu Sheng thought for a moment and knew what the other party was talking about: the monthly True Essence Temple assessment.

"As for martial arts, I have made some progress, but I have been busy practicing martial arts and dealing with matters at the yamen lately. I can only find time to practice martial arts, and I can only remember the scriptures I recite in the morning class."

"Don't feel too much pressure. We're all beginners, so the assessment isn't too strict," Mingliu reassured him.

"But now that the abbot and the other two are not here, will the assessment still be conducted?" Mu Sheng asked in confusion.

During this entire month, neither the abbot nor the two deacons appeared.

"This is the first time I've encountered this either." Mingliu wasn't very clear about it either.

Following the flow of people into the main hall, standing at the front facing them was their senior sister, Li Suyun.

Wait until everyone has arrived.

Li Suyun then waved her sleeve and said to the disciples, "The abbot and the steward are preoccupied with matters concerning the demons in the outer city, so the assessment is temporarily canceled. However, the inner sect selection two months from now remains unchanged. If the matter is not resolved, the inner sect of Zhenyuan Temple will send someone here to preside over it."

"We understand," the crowd said in unison.

Li Suyun nodded and said, "The morning class will continue today."

So it really is because of that demon?

Mu Sheng continued reciting the scriptures with the others.

After morning classes ended, Mu Sheng and Ming Liu walked outside.

Mingliu sighed and said, "We'll have to wait two more years to see about the inner sect selection."

"Is this selection held every year?" Mu Sheng asked curiously.

"It's not that simple." Mingliu shook his head: "I heard that the selection of inner disciples depends on whether there are any spots available in the inner sect. It is said that the spots are fixed and will only become available if an inner disciple falls."

"By the time we grow up, we don't know if we'll have a place. I still have no clue how to play."

Mingliu sighed as he finished speaking.

"So, the chances are very slim?" Mu Sheng frowned immediately.

Although he intended to bide his time and conceal his abilities, he would not let the opportunity slip away.

If we wait another two years, something will happen to Mu Yun.

He's only been a disciple for three months, isn't it too ostentatious for him to be competing for inner discipleship?

"Let's forget about it this time," Mingliu said sourly. "Although I have extraordinary talent, given time, I'm definitely no worse than those senior brothers and sisters."

"I believe in you, Senior Brother. You'll definitely be able to compete for an inner sect spot next time," Mu Sheng said flatteringly. "I'll take my leave now and go report to the government office."

"Go, go." Mingliu waved his hand, still thinking about the inner disciples, completely unaware that his little brother had already come up with an idea.

Mu Sheng bid farewell to Ming Liu and hurried to the yamen.

Standing in the crowd, Zhao Hu stood in front of everyone, his gaze sweeping over them before finally settling on Mu Sheng.

"Mu Sheng, come out."

"Yes." Mu Sheng immediately strode out from the crowd.

Zhao Hu, with a stern face, asked in a deep voice, "How's the case I asked you to investigate?"

A month has now passed.

Mu Sheng thought to himself, "This is bad," but still answered honestly, "Reporting back to the constable, there are still no clues."

"I see you didn't investigate at all!" Zhao Hu roared, stomping his foot on the ground.

"Bang!" A crack appeared in the marble floor.

Mu Sheng replied calmly, "Reporting to the head constable, I have questioned all the suspects in the north of the city, but there are no leads. It is my fault for not doing my job well, and I am willing to resign from this temporary post."

It now seems he won't be able to get the money for this temporary posting.

However, the spoils they got from the Fierce Tiger Gang were enough.

Zhao Hu sneered, "What do you take our government office for? Someone you can just come and go as you please?"
