CHAPTER 491: CHAPTER 485: OPPORTUNITY FOR BREAKTHROUGH_2

The will has long since been tempered to be as strong as steel, incredibly resilient.

They are all talents.

More importantly...

These talents are currently unclaimed, Wind Fist Style?

Apologies, as an individual school, I must admit Feng Zhichen’s character is extremely high, but if compared in the depth of Martial Tao, he’s truly miles behind the Sect.

At worst, allow them to hold dual sect identities...

Sun Bumie thought that even if only a tenth of the Baoyan Army Legion joined the Cuowu Sect, its strength would leap to the top among the Five Sects.

How could he pass up such a rare opportunity...

So, even though it was late at night, he couldn’t wait to visit in person.

As far as these people are concerned, Xu Lingjun’s status is lofty and unshakeable.

This is not an issue, Xu Lingjun’s current status is too high, so he can’t simply remain in the Cuowu Sect, besides with his current strength, if he stayed, Sun Bumie might actually be pleased, who knows.

For Sun Bumie, befriending Xu Lingjun was perhaps the wisest decision of his life.

..............

In the blink of an eye.

More than ten days had passed.

In these ten days, as the holiday began.

The Baoyan Army Legion each returned home to visit their families, and among them, a large batch were actually orphans adopted by Feng Zhichen, without family ties, nearly half of these people went back to the Cuowu Sect with Sun Bumie.

Going anywhere is the same, since Sun Bumie has offered them many conveniences, they naturally want to see if these conveniences are real or not.

Even the Commander allowed it... they didn’t mind taking on one more identity.

During this time.

Xu Lingjun did not attend any meetings, as the Polar Star Battlefield was under reconstruction and expansion, he was too lazy to manage...

He just peacefully resided in the villa.

Working at sunrise, resting at sunset daily.

At the Polar Star Battlefield for two years, he worked hard on cultivation, but his focus wasn’t there...

Now, he is just a hair’s breadth away from the Guiyuan Grandmaster Realm.

Every time he recalls the battle between Liu Zhiyuan and Pavilion Master Tai Zhengyuan of Central City Martial Mansion.

He feels a dreamy haze...

At that time, it seemed such formidable power.

And now, his strength is no less compared to them then...

He naturally can’t wait to breakthrough into the Grandmaster Realm.

To completely refine his True Qi into True Essence.

Half a month later.

Cuowu Sect.

Inside the Sect Martial Arts Hall.

Two figures are moving as fast as a blur, so quick that they are hard to see.

Suddenly intersecting, suddenly colliding, each clash would cause limitless shockwaves, forcing everyone to step back continuously, the hall, though large, left those watching driven backward until nearly forced outside.

Yet even so.

All observers still have their eyes glued to the battlefield.

Even though True Qi like blades and swords attacked their bodies, clothes were torn and tattered, but such a grand opportunity is extremely rare.

Everyone was watching totally engrossed.

The Supreme Elder suddenly challenged the Sect Leader... expressing a desire to have a friendly spar.

Though just a private spar between two people, their positions within Cuowu Sect are extremely sensitive, leading others to easily speculate about power struggles, dissatisfaction, sect infighting, and other strange information.

Especially since the one vying for power is the current Commander in Chief of Polar Star Battlefield.

Those Baoyan Army warriors who had followed Xu Lingjun for long, yet rarely saw him take action personally, and Cuowu Sect disciples were naturally curious about what power their Commander truly possessed...

There were even those placing bets, speculating how many moves Xu Lingjun could withstand from Sun Bumie...

It’s not like they lack confidence in Xu Lingjun, in fact, his strength was always undoubtedly the strongest in Qisha Military District.

Many people observed the reasons he would often seek sparring, yet no one dared accept his challenges.

But without entering the Grandmaster realm, there’s still a significant gap from it.

Sun Bumie thought the same...

In his view, Xu Lingjun must have hit a bottleneck, unable to breakthrough, thus wishing to experience the pressure of a Grandmaster up close.

However, when the two truly started fighting, he was shocked to realize.

Xu Lingjun’s current strength already faintly has the capability to rival his own.

The Elders watched in amazement...

Everyone understood why Sun Bumie befriended Xu Lingjun; he sought to cultivate future value.

Although Xu Lingjun has quickly demonstrated his worth, with influence perhaps surpassing the Cuowu Sect, but that’s his capability, not force.

Who could have predicted, even in terms of sheer martial prowess, he already possesses power equivalent to Sun Bumie!

The two exchanged hundreds of moves...

Sun Bumie surprisingly did not gain much advantage, almost making a huge fool of himself due to underestimation amidst the disciples.

Only with rich combat experience he quickly turned the tide back.

The two fiercely fought for more than half an hour...

By the time their evenly matched bout ended.

The onlookers, who had been watching entranced, were stunned, evidently not expecting their Commander in Chief, who hadn’t entered the Grandmaster realm, to already possess power rivaling a Grandmaster.

Sun Bumie was equally refreshed, he hadn’t deliberately held back...

Though, if the battle continued, he had at least seventy percent confidence of winning.
