  In the Guanjun Province City, their talent and strength were top tier, but if they entered the Broken Moon Clan, they could fight the other peak geniuses to see who was stronger.

  “I have three recommendations for the disciple test in two months’ time, so you’ve all got to grip this chance,” Lord Guanjun said solemnly as he looked at the six youths in front of him.

  Three spots?

  The hearts of all the youths jumped. Even though they were under the same Master, they would still compete against each other.

  Obviously, Lord Guanjun had more disciples. But there was an age limit for the disciple test, this was why Lord Guanjun didn’t invite Ye Linyun and the others over.

  Ye Linyun and the rest were older than thirty and the rule of the Broken Moon Clan was that if one wasn’t able to reach the Holy Martial Path by the age of thirty, they wouldn’t be able to become an inner disciple. This also meant that only the six youths in front of him could compete for the three recommendation spots.

  “The beast horde is over. All of you go back to the Guanjun Palace and celebrate!” Lord Guanjun said, then disappeared with a flash.

  Sou! Sou! A streak of silver shot through the sky and it was quickly lost from sight.

  “Master tells all of you to go to the Spiritual Martial Hall to get your rewards.” Ye Linyun’s figure appeared in front of the six, and they nodded their heads in response.

  On the way back, Feng Hanyue seemed to have something on his mind as he looked back and forth between Bei Moi, Nan Gongfan, and Yang Qingshan.

  Lord Guanjun could only recommend three people and of the six youths, Bei Moi, Nan Gongfan, and Yang Qingshan had the highest cultivation, with all of them being at the eighth rank or higher.

  Compared to the other three, Feng Hanyue, Zhao Feng, and Zhao Yufei had less of a chance.

  “I should be able to get one spot out of the three if I try my best,” Zhao Feng thought in his heart.

  After the beast horde, his strength had risen and the faint green light was coming close to 2.65 meters.

  He had no confidence in beating Bei Moi as the latter could slay ninth ranks, but Zhao Feng was sixty to seventy percent confident that he could beat Yang Qingshan and Nan Gongfan.

  Furthermore, there was still two more months till the disciple test, and Zhao Feng had this time to improve.

  The six all used their speed skills and arrived back at the Guanjun Palace.

  Spiritual Martial Hall.

  “Master is waiting inside.” Ye Linyun had arrived at the gate already.

  His cultivation was at the peak ninth rank, so he was the fastest. Bei Moi was second and he had already walked into the hall. After him were Yang Qingshan, Nan Gongfan, and Zhao Feng, the other two slightly surprised by Zhao Feng’s speed.

  Soon, the six youths arrived at the Spiritual Martial Hall.

  Lord Guanjun sat on his futon as he scanned the six disciples.

  On his left and right were Ye Linyun and First Guard. The youths were all familiar with Ye Linyun, but First Guard was a mysterious person who had reached half-step Holy rank.

  Because Third Guard had been injured during the fight with the Lord tier deadly beast, First Guard took his place.

  “How goes the battle points?” Lord Guanjun asked in a deep voice.

  “Master, the Guanjun Corps’ calculations have been finalized and they have given the results.” First Guard bowed as he took out a small book.

  Lord Guanjun didn’t take the book, instead saying, “Read it out.”

  “Yes.” First Guard opened the book and spoke what was written on it: “First, Zhao Feng - 465 battle points. Second, Bei Moi - 403 battle points…”

  “Wait!”

  Lord Guanjun’s expression changed as he stared at First Guard. “Bei Moi isn’t first?”

  In reality, even the other geniuses felt this was unbelievable. How could Bei Moi not be first place? Even Lord Guanjun was suspicious. At this moment in time, the Martial Spiritual Hall had turned silent.

  Bei Moi had his fists clenched together and mumbled with an ugly expression. “Impossible! I don’t believe it!”

  “Master, Zhao Feng slew the Golden Beak Eagle King and that was where he got most of his points from,” Ye Linyun informed him in a low tone.

  “How many points for killing the Golden Beak Eagle King?” Lord Guanjun asked.

  First Guanjun immediately replied, “There is a range of 20 - 60 battle points for killing a high tier deadly beast. But because the Golden Beak Eagle King’s strength was at the peak ninth rank and was extremely hard to kill, 100 battle points were awarded.”

  100 Battle points! Bei Moi and the others were stunned.

  “Even if he did kill the Golden Beak Eagle King, his battle points are a bit too much. Tell us the battle points of the others,” Lord Guanjun ordered calmly.

  “Yang Qingshan - 195 battle points, Nan Gongfan 181 battle points…,” First Guard called out the battle points of the others.

  It was obvious that no one else apart from Zhao Feng and Bei Moi had reached 200 points.

  According to logic, Zhao Feng’s battle points should be around 100 or so. Even if he did manage to kill the Golden Beak Eagle King and get 100 battle points, it meant that he had received 365 extra battle points, and exceeded Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan by far.

  “Impossible!” Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan shook their heads furiously.

  Bei Moi laughed coldly, but he didn’t speak. It was obvious that he believed his Master would give the right judgement.

  “Could there be any problems?” Lord Guanjun asked with his eyebrows raised.

  Under normal situations, he never questioned the Guanjun Corps, but this time, it was just too unexpected.

  “Master, I am sure this is correct and even if there was a problem, it would be extremely small,” First Guard said without a doubt, then proceeded to go over the detailed calculations.

  “Zhao Feng slew between seventy to eighty flying beasts with just his arrows alone, and on average, they were worth 2.5 battle points each. From just this alone, he already has 200 and counting the Golden Beak Eagle King, it would be 300…,” First Guard read out.

  There were records of where the points came from.

  “Oh? Archery?” Lord Guanjun was slightly surprised as he looked once again at Zhao Feng.

  “On this fact, General Heng, me and the nearby archers can vouch for this.” Ye Linyun added.

  “Hmm… there shouldn’t be any problems here.” Lord Guanjun wasn’t suspicious at all.

  Next, it was the other points. After he shot down the flying beasts, he used the remaining time to get another 160 or so points.

  One had to know that Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan had only earned 180 or so in double his time and the two had higher cultivation levels than Zhao Feng.

  “I don’t believe it!” Nan Gongfan shook his head, showing his disbelief.

  “Zhao Feng’s battle conscience is extremely good and every attack he made would take down a beast. His efficiency and speed is double those of the same rank. In terms of this, even the elite of the Guanjun Corps can’t catch up with him…maybe he’s a natural killer!?” First Guard gave Zhao Feng a complex look.

  Ye Linyun had a bright smile on. “Last time, Zhao Feng made first place in the kill mission as well, and at that time, he was only at the sixth rank…”

  Now, Zhao Feng’s source of battle points had been explained. Lord Guanjun now had no doubts as he looked at Zhao Feng with praise. “I never thought that I would have a prodigy who’s good at both archery and close combat.”

  He knew how his Guanjun Corpsmen were, they would almost never make a mistake.

  “...What kind of monster is this guy?” Bei Moi clenched his fists, showing his unwillingness. Being the only core disciple of Lord Guanjun, how could he lose to an outer disciple?

  Nan Gongfan, Yang Qingshan and Feng Hanyue all looked at Zhao Feng wit
h shock. Only Zhao Yufei had a smile on her face and wasn’t surprised by this.

  After they received their battle points, the six geniuses left, leaving behind Lord Guanjun, First Guard, and Ye Linyun in the Spiritual Martial Hall.

  “What else do you need?” Lord Guanjun asked.

  First Guard took a deep breath. “Master, Zhao Feng’s real battles points were actually 565 and not 465! But out of consideration for the other geniuses, I hid 100 battle points…”

  Chapter 98 - Silver Air Barrier

  “Master, Zhao Feng’s real battles points were actually 565, not 465! But out of consideration for the other geniuses, I hid 100 battle points…” First Guard said.

  “Is this true?” A light flashed in Lord Guanjun’s eyes as he sent out an unbearable pressure at First Guard and Ye Linyun.

  “Yes!”

  First Guard said without hesitation. “Brother Zhao Feng gained more points in both archery and close combat.”

  Inside First Guard's voice, there was a slight bitterness. Being a quasi-Holy martial artist, his words had great importance. First Guard knew that even he himself wouldn’t be able to reach such a level if he was the same rank as Zhao Feng.

  “Master! Disciple here said that you wouldn’t regret taking in Zhao Feng as your disciple,” Ye Linyun said with a smile. He was always expectant of Zhao Feng and the latter didn’t let him down.

  Lord Guanjun soon remembered the hesitation he had that day on whether to take Zhao Feng in as a disciple or not. After all, at that time, Zhao Feng’s talent was only a Half Spiritual Body. It was due to the fact that Ye Linyun had recommended him that he had taken him in.

  It looked like this decision wasn’t wrong.

  “Zhao Feng isn't bad and his battle proficiency is almost perfect.” Lord Guanjun’s words took a twist with a slight sigh to it. “Unfortunately, he’s just a Half Spiritual Body which restricts his future achievements and he won’t be able to complete my wish…”

  It was obvious that Zhao Feng’s performance was indeed great, but Lord Guanjun didn’t think that he would have great achievements in the future.

  As for Lord Guanjun’s conclusion, First Guard didn’t say anything, as if he approved. Ye Linyun wanted to retort, but there was nothing to say.

  Indeed.

  Zhao Feng’s performance was great, but no one had ever thought of him exceeding Bei Moi.

  After leaving the Spiritual Martial Hall, Zhao Feng immediately headed towards the Treasury Hall.

  The other disciples, Nan Gongfan, Yang Qingshan, and Feng Hanyue, were all envious and jealous.

  Bei Moi’s expression was the worst. Ever since he was young, he was a super prodigy in other people’s eyes and no one his age had ever beat him in anything.

  When he was back in the village, it was like that, and when he moved to the city, it was like this as well. But ever since he had met Zhao Feng, this record had been broken again and again.

  “Zhao Feng, you’re not simple. If you have guts, let’s go to the Clan and settle it there.” A rare red light appeared in Bei Moi’s expressionless eyes.

  Was…Bei Moi challenging someone?

  Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan were slightly stunned. They had never seen Bei Moi challenge someone, because everyone else his age had been left behind and couldn’t threaten him.

  “Sure,” Zhao Feng immediately answered with a solemn expression.

  In reality, he felt immense pressure facing a super prodigy such as Bei Moi. But this was also a good thing, he could use it to ignite his potential. With his battle points, he could get many martial arts, resources, pills, and weapons.

  “What should I get with the battle points?” Zhao Feng went into deep thought.

  Martial arts?

  Zhao Feng felt that he didn’t need any as he already had Metal Wall Technique and Returning Breath Technique. One was a Holy martial art while the other was close to a Holy martial art. The others, such as Lightly Floating Ferry and Smoking Transparent Step, could reach the tier of Holy martial arts by combining them with Flowing Wind Stance.

  It seemed like his lowest tier skill was Star Finger.

  “Star Finger is a peak martial art and it can be classified as a half-Holy martial art. Using it with Tornado Stance, it can surpass normal half-Holy martial arts. If I train it to the seventh level, it can even beat Holy martial arts as it’s extremely hard to train Holy martial arts to a high level.” Zhao Feng analyzed.

  He finally decided not to get another offensive skill. With his battle points, he could only get half-Holy martial arts and not Holy martial arts. Just like this, Zhao Feng decided to not get any martial arts.

  His focus was on pills and resources.

  Of his skills, Silver Wall Technique was the highest level and it was the foundation of the nine ranks of the Martial Path. Zhao Feng remembered what Lord Guanjun and Ye Linyun had discussed.

  “Therefore, I should go all in on my body strengthening technique,” Zhao Feng decided as a light flashed in his eyes.

  He then immediately went into the Thousand Medicine Pavilion inside the Treasury Hall. His aim was resources that could help his body strengthening technique.

  “Chilling Snow Body Pill, using a large amount of cold to strengthen the body and it is one of the best pills for the nine ranks of the Martial Path. It must be used with care for those under the eighth rank.”

  “Burning Sun Bone Pill, using an extremely hot flame to burn the bones and it is one of the best body strengthening pills. It has a better effect when used with Chilling Snow Body Pill…”

  “Golden Body Strengthening Powder, the king of body strengthening resources, is a very wild and dominant powder, it has a fifty percent chance of crippling a cultivator at the eighth rank!”

  Soon, Zhao Feng found the three best peak tier pills.

  The Chilling Snow Body Pill cost him one hundred twenty battle points. The Burning Sun Bone Pill cost him one hundred nineteen battle points. The Golden Body Strengthening Powder cost him one hundred sixty-seven battle points.

  Just the three alone cost him over four hundred battle points.

  One had to know that a peak ranked martial art only cost ten points and a half-Holy martial art cost fifty.

  As for the leftover battle points, Zhao Feng bought some lower class body strengthening resources. Even then, these resources were much better than the body strengthening powder he had bought at the Medicine Pavilion.

  On the same day...

  Zhao Feng had spent all his battle points. The battle points had been exchanged for over half of the precious stock for body strengthening resources.

  In the Guanjun Palace, not everyone could get battle points and even if they could, there was a limit to how much could be exchanged. But being the disciple of Lord Guanjun, he could get more items for the same amount of battle points.

  For example, if someone else wanted a Chilling Snow Body Pill, they needed one hundred seventy battle points, but he only needed one hundred twenty. And even if they had enough, they might not have the status to exchange for it.

  After leaving the Treasury Hall, Zhao Feng returned to his place and started to cultivate.

  For the next month, he focused solely on Silver Wall Technique.

  For the first seven days, he used the lower class body strengthening resources that were compatible with cultivators of the seventh rank or higher. The pills and medicine he purchased were different according to their nature.

  For example: Chilling Snow Body Pill was of cold nature, whereas Burning Sun Bone Pill was of fire nature and Golden Body Strengthening Powder was of metal nature.

  Therefore, he made sure that the pills of the same element weren’t used right after one another as his body would start to have resistance against them.

  Seven days later...

  Zhao Feng’s Silver Wall Technique reached the seventh level, but this had also used up all of his lower class resources.

 
; “I can suppress most cultivators of the seventh rank with just my body alone.”

  Zhao Feng could feel the explosive strength hiding inside his arms. Every punch could instantly kill anyone under the seventh rank.

  Now Zhao Feng only had a Chilling Snow Body Pill, a Burning Sun Bone Pill, and Golden Strengthening Powder left. According to what he had planned, he first consumed the Chilling Snow Body Pill.

  After eating it, a terribly cold aura spread out within his body. For three days and three nights his body was frozen, the danger was unimaginable.

  “No wonder it said that eighth rank cultivators need to be cautious when using it.”

  Only after three days and three nights did Zhao Feng resolve the situation. Even before all of the energy had been absorbed, Zhao Feng immediately ate the Burning Sun Bone Pill.

  The two were ice and fire and even though it was extremely painful, the effects were better. Zhao Feng circulated his Silver Wall Technique and Returning Breath Technique to absorb the chaotic energy.

  Peh! Peh!

  His left eye released sizzles of heat that spread out throughout his body. After the merging of the mysterious left eye, his potential and efficiency of energy absorbing had increased.

  Eight days later...

  The ice and fire pills were absorbed.

  Hu!

  Zhao Feng let out a breath as he stood up. As he did so, he could feel his bones and skin become tougher. The body was first strengthened from the outside, then to the inside where his liver was. The stronger his liver was, the more he could use his Inner Strength.

  “The body is the foundation, even though I didn’t focus on Returning Breath Technique, I could still feel my cultivation increase,” Zhao Feng thought.

  At this moment, his cultivation had reached the peak seventh rank and he was only half a step away from the eighth. At the same time, his Silver Wall Technique had also reached the peak seventh level.
