CHAPTER 54: CHAPTER 48: INTERNAL MEETING

"Fundamentals of Blade Techniques"?

What kind of blade technique is this?

A simple name, a simple introduction.

Of course, like the dried step, it is also a battle technique that only Martial Artists can train.

Xu Baiyan said it’s very simple, any Martial Artist of a certain level can learn it.

Judging by the name alone, this Fundamentals of Blade Technique is certainly not as good as Liao Ji’s technique.

"Eight Wildernesses Frenzied Blade"

The name itself gives a feeling of immense bravery.

As if one is placed in an ancient mythological era, cutting Chiyou with a blade, defending against Zhurong with a sword, and even daring to challenge the Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan.

Regardless of its effectiveness, at least the name wins.

But what does this Fundamentals of Blade Technique mean?

Does it teach you to be civilized and polite?

Isn’t this a public service announcement, trying to tease me?

Su Yue looked at the introduction again.

Upon successful training, one can slash out a half-meter range blade arc. The stronger the Qi Blood, the stronger the arc’s lethality.

There are four levels of proficiency in the Fundamentals of Blade Technique.

According to Xu Baiyan’s description, the blade light at each level has a different color. The closer the color is to deep red, the stronger the lethality.

How strong exactly, Xu Baiyan did not specify, but it seems the strongest state can quadruple a blade’s Qi Blood attack power.

Su Yue did not have high expectations.

Just this name alone didn’t give him much hope.

He found a quiet place.

Started practicing.

Training blade techniques is actually similar to the dried step.

Gang Qi is extending Qi Blood from the palm outside the body, using the blade as a vessel to form a sharp Qi arc.

Su Yue understood.

Qi Blood needs a vessel to be released from the body.

The dried leaf is a vessel.

The blade is also a vessel.

Focusing and calming his mind, he slowly gathered 18 cards of Qi Blood in his palm, then let it flow out like water from all five fingers.

Eventually, it attached to the blade.

Failed.

As expected, it failed, the switch in his fingers just wouldn’t cooperate.

"My comprehension really is indescribable, how embarrassing. It seems I have to double my efforts, choosing diligence to make up for clumsiness."

When talent is insufficient, effort has to make up for it.

Su Yue’s vanity was at work, fearing others would know he’s not smart, he could only work overtime to train hard.

Since he couldn’t go to the Desolate Mountain, Su Yue snuck into an abandoned building’s skeleton to secretly practice blade techniques.

Unable to buy a real chopping blade, he could only go to the supermarket and buy a meat cleaver for 300 yuan.

No other choice, according to Xu Baiyan, the bigger the blade, the easier it is to train.

Su Yue also asked Liao Ji. Don’t be fooled by how inconspicuous his dagger looks. It’s worth 520,000, allegedly made from materials obtained from the damp realm which many Martial Artists can’t afford.

Can’t afford to provoke.

Someone making 50,000 a month truly can’t afford to provoke.

And it’s restricted for sale, only Martial Artists can buy it.

...

Unknowingly.

Four days passed.

Tomorrow is the start of the potential class, but Su Yue and the others have yet to receive a text message with a report location.

The potential class has no tuition fees, which saves Su Yue a lot.

His time of disability has finally ended, and his right arm can move now.

As previously speculated.

The function of the arm can maintain balance, and now Su Yue can almost achieve a jump with the dried step 100% of the time.

The second jump is still far off in the distance, Su Yue managed to save face, and currently doesn’t dare think of the second jump.

As for the Fundamentals of Blade Technique, he got used to using the left arm, using the right arm instead feels uncomfortable, so he just practices the Left Arm Blade, the effect is the same.

Very unfortunate.

In four days, he could barely attach Qi Blood to the chopping blade; slashing out is still a dream for now.

Success with the dried step was because speed was his advantage.

Arm strength was originally Su Yue’s weak aspect, nothing could be done but to overcome it slowly.

Once at the potential class, he’ll gradually train further.

...

Available diligence points: 206

Diligence counter:

1: Sleep Exemption

2: The Cost of Love

3: Save Your Dog Life

4: Distinguish Between Man and Ghost

Qi Blood value: 18 cards

...

His diligence value exceeded 200, technically Su Yue could add a Qi Blood point now.

But he hesitated.

Just starting the potential class, he’s unaware of how to train himself. If he ends up crippling a leg, he’d need a wheelchair, making it even more embarrassing.

Either way, the diligence points won’t go to waste, so he thought to save them up for now.

A 1,000,000-point life-saving indicator for skill 3 is estimated to be unnecessary now.

"Supposedly, the potential class is closed training for a year. Uncle and Su Jianjun have nearly arranged everything, so I can leave with peace of mind."

In the past few days, they’ve completely moved to the new house.

Undoubtedly, Liang Youxin is also a capable person.

Although his character wasn’t great, he had many friends. Through his arrangement, many high-end pieces of furniture were purchased at the wholesale price.

In conclusion, the home renovation went very smoothly.

...

Admiral’s Mansion.

Li Xingpei dispersed the secretary, leaving her alone in the conference room.

This time, the Governor had convened an internal meeting.

The video has been encrypted.

The meeting participants were the Admirals from various cities in Renqing Province.

The reason for this Governor’s meeting was the recent uproar over the Yangxiang Sect incident.

Military personnel had already withdrawn.

According to the investigation, Yangxiang Sect’s live capture of high school students aimed to research a special serum.

According to Research Institute experts, once this serum is successful, Earth Martial Artists could gain characteristics of the damp realm races by injection.

This way, some human race spies from Earth could roam openly on the territories of the damp realm races.

Of course, they could also live on Earth without obstacles.

For the Earth faction, the existence of such spies could be disastrous in the future.

Fortunately, the Yangxiang Race failed.

The military received a report; the leader of this evil experiment, Dr. Jiu Mao, was deceased.

Experts from the Miracle Corps also found evidence of Dr. Jiu Mao’s death in Cengyan City.

This group disguised themselves as a filming crew, concealing the Investigation and Arrest Bureau’s inspection.

Thus, the case came to a complete end.

As for Dr. Jiu Mao’s henchmen, their whereabouts are currently unknown, but the military suspects they have somehow returned to the damp realm.

In the Divine Land, the defenses of various Wet Ghost Towers are impregnable.

But abroad, some Wet Ghost Towers are particularly easy to infiltrate; this group likely first exited the country and then returned to the damp realm.

The Governor’s meeting content was to notify the Admirals of each city to remain vigilant.

This matter is a disgrace to the Governor’s Mansion, and although the Military Department has withdrawn from the investigation, the Governor still wants a thorough examination of every clue.

In a few days, Martial Artists from the Teacher Combat Institute will visit each city to investigate.

It’s not complicated; the Governor also reminded about some college entrance exam matters before adjourning the meeting.

After the potential class starts, the senior students return.

The college entrance exam is about to begin.

...

"The Teacher Combat Institute and the high school department have been completely merged into the Governor’s Mansion, while the Ministry of Education manages each university independently.

"It’s strange how even teachers are split into two factions under this system."

Li Xingpei frowned.

In Renqing Province, the death toll of high school students reached 118, an overwhelming number.

This was also an enormous case that shocked the Divine Land.

In fact, not just the Teacher Combat Institute, students from each Wuda also hoped to investigate this incident further.

The Military Department is not omnipotent.

In case they missed something, and it was picked up by the Teacher Combat Institute or Wuda students, it would be a significant achievement noticed by the Divine Cabinet.

Every Martial Artist wishes to secure more resources for themselves and their companions behind them.

This is also human nature.
