He looked around, and after confirming there was no threat, he lowered his thoughts to examine his status panel.
Blood Battle in All Directions [Great Accomplishment 1%], with perk: Heavenly Gifted Martial Sense [Purple]
Thousand Jun Formation Breaker [Great Accomplishment 1%], with perk: Strength Through a Thousand Armies [Purple]
Seeing the two newly achieved Great Accomplishment martial arts on his panel, Chu Kuang showed a rare smile.
External and internal martial arts are fundamental, but weapon and movement martial arts are also crucial. With Blood Battle in All Directions and Thousand Jun Formation Breaker reaching Great Accomplishment, his improvement would be transformative, filling his biggest weakness.
Especially with the perk's enhancement, every advancement Chu Kuang made in his techniques yielded far greater results than others' promotions.
"With the Purple perk's enhancement, the various effects of these two techniques have been boosted by an additional fifty percent," Chu Kuang murmured to himself, then quickly withdrew his thoughts.
He then strode towards the sabertooth tiger's lair, where he found a Source Energy Spring Eye.
"I'm rich."
Looking at the Source Energy Spring Eye before him, Chu Kuang's heart couldn't help but pound.
The Source Energy Spring here was more abundant than he could have imagined, enough to fill two jade gourds.
Considering one gourd of spring liquid was worth a hundred thousand Federal Coins, this alone was two hundred thousand Federal Coins. Adding the gourd of spring liquid he already had and what he had previously consumed, his earnings from this trip amounted to a full three hundred and thirty thousand Federal Coins.
"It's a shame Source Energy Spring Liquid is volatile and can't be taken out of the main universe to sell."
"But with this Source Energy Spring Liquid, my strength will definitely see a huge improvement."
Chu Kuang shook his head, quickly dismissed the thought, and had no intention of exploring further. Instead, he stayed by the Source Energy Spring Eye and began to consume and refine the spring liquid.
He combined this Source Energy Spring Liquid with Nutrient Solution, rapidly digesting the spoils of this battle, aiming to quickly improve his martial arts.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed. Chu Kuang had finally preliminarily digested his combat experience, and his Life Level had already seen a significant increase.
Name: Chu Kuang
Race: Human
Life Level: 6.7 → 6.8
[Iron Armor Technique (Great Accomplishment 45 → 57%)]
[Gold-Splitting Spear (Great Accomplishment 28 → 37%)]
[Iron Bell Shield (Minor Accomplishment 21 → 67%)]
[Blood Battle in All Directions...
"The improvement is significant. Internal arts are getting closer to Great Accomplishment too," Chu Kuang murmured. He then took stock of the treasures on him and found that he had consumed half a jade gourd of Source Energy Spring Liquid.
The remaining abundant Source Energy Spring Liquid was enough to allow Chu Kuang's cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds. Chu Kuang should have gone into seclusion to continue cultivating.
However, the noisy commotion from outside forced him to abandon his plans for further cultivation.
"Quick, look, these sabertooth tigers just died not long ago. The people probably haven't gone far."
"Hurry and check if there's any Source Energy Spring Liquid left."
Sounds came from outside, followed by the sound of dense footsteps approaching the entrance of the lair.
Chu Kuang's brow furrowed slightly at this. He got up and went to the outside of the lair, only to see a hundred or so students surrounding the entire lair.
"Class Five."
Seeing these people, Chu Kuang's brow furrowed slightly.
Among the hundred or so people before him, Chu Kuang recognized many of them as students from Class Five of Third Middle School.
Third Middle School had forty-eight regular classes in total. Class Five ranking fifth meant their strength was not to be underestimated. Their average Life Level was as high as 4.9, and they even had five martial artists who had achieved Great Accomplishment in External Martial Arts.
No, among this group now, there were as many as seven martial artists who had achieved Great Accomplishment in External Martial Arts. Clearly, they had already secured more than one Source Energy Spring Eye, and their overall strength had improved considerably.
"This place is already occupied."
Even so, Chu Kuang remained calm as ever and said lightly.
"Class Seven, are you Chu Kuang?"
Seeing Chu Kuang emerge, the people from Class Five were all taken aback.
The leader of Class Five, Xiong Haikuo, was a man wielding a heavy ruler. He looked at Chu Kuang and asked tentatively, "Did your Class Seven take this place?"
"Where are the others from your class?"
"It's just me here."
Chu Kuang knew what they were thinking and simply replied calmly, "You can still leave now."
"Leave?"
After confirming that Chu Kuang was alone, Xiong Haikuo smiled and said, "No rush. Let us take a look inside. After all, treasures are for those who find them."
"It seems you don't want to leave," Chu Kuang said calmly, flicking his spear. "Then I'll send you back."
"Arrogant! Who do you think you are, trying to fight a hundred people alone?" Xiong Haikuo sneered, then waved his hand and said, "Classmates, let's kick his ass."
"If you're going to make a move, do it quickly. What's the point of all this pointless chatter?"
Chu Kuang said calmly, his spear spinning and flying out, stirring up a storm of blade energy that swept in all directions. Where it passed, students were sent flying, and in the blink of an eye, seventeen or eighteen students were eliminated.
After sweeping away the crowd with a single move, Chu Kuang reached out and grabbed the air. His war spear spun back, and he stood tall in his dark black battle armor, holding his spear.
In the face of an absolute difference in life level, these ordinary students with an average life level of 4.9 had no chance of threatening Chu Kuang.
"Not good, form up quickly!"
Seeing Chu Kuang slaughtering his way through, Xiong Haikuo's face changed drastically, and he quickly organized the students to form a battle array.
In an instant, thirty-six outstanding students with life levels exceeding five formed the "Heavenly Dipper Battle Formation." The front row advanced with heavy shields, the rear row formed a forest of spears, and the flankers with swords and sabers waited for an opportunity to attack.
"Kill—!"
The front-row shield bearers charged forward, twelve heavy steel shields pressing in like a city wall, their momentum immense!
"Your skill isn't great, but you've certainly practiced your formations well."
Facing the charging battle formation, Chu Kuang remained as calm as ever.
He bent his knees slightly, leaned his body forward, and then suddenly shot out like a golden light.
With the "Heavenly Dragon Pounces on the Moon" technique, he unleashed a force that could break through anything, instantly piercing through the Heavenly Dipper Battle Formation. Where he passed, shockwaves exploded, and the twelve shields flew into the air as if struck by meteorites.
"Boom!"
The twelve shield bearers who directly faced Chu Kuang's move felt as if they had been struck by lightning. If not for their alloy battle armor, their bones would likely have been shattered.
Almost at the same time, the twelve spears from the rear row thrust out simultaneously. The spear tips gleamed coldly like a howling gale, as if intending to turn Chu Kuang into a pincushion.
But Chu Kuang let the twelve spears pierce his body, a peerless battle intent surging from his eyes straight into the sky.
"Overestimating yourselves!"
A cold laugh echoed. Chu Kuang swept his war spear, the spear shadows churning like a black dragon. Amidst the clash of metal, the twelve spears, along with their wielders, were all sent flying.
In the face of an absolute difference in life level, even this military formation seemed so laughable.
"Thousand Jun Formation Breaker, he's actually trained this movement technique to such a level!"
Seeing Chu Kuang sweep through the crowd, Xiong Haikuo's face changed again. He decisively gripped his heavy Xuan iron ruler, leaped up, and unleashed a "Forceful Mountain Splitting Chop" towards Chu Kuang.
As the leader of Class Five, Xiong Haikuo's strength was extraordinary, with a life level of 6.2. He practiced the "Mount Bearing Art," renowned for its power, and had mastered the "Mysterious Desolate Mountain Suppressing Ruler" to the point of making it feel weightless.
This strike was one that even elites from the elite classes might not dare to face head-on, yet Chu Kuang remained motionless.
He calmly flicked his spear, and a "Gold-Splitting" strike shot out, hitting the giant ruler and creating brilliant sparks.
Then, the spear light flashed, bypassing the ruler and precisely touching Xiong Haikuo's throat before flicking him away.
