Fame Soars, Great Granary Institute's Selective Training Course (Third Update)

Within the first quarter of the training session, a large number of martial artists were eliminated, including many geniuses from the Four Great Martial Offices.

"The effect is actually this good?" Zhuang Ziqing looked at Zhao Xing's figure. "His sonic martial arts have become stronger."

"In terms of sonic martial arts alone, even Shi Yong and I are no match for him."

Yes, Zhao Xing wasn't the only one who attacked just now; Zhuang Ziqing and Shi Yong also joined the fight.

In such a chaotic battle, sonic martial arts techniques are naturally more effective.

It is highly lethal, has a wide range, and can also boost morale.

However, both Zhuang Ziqing and Shi Yong could see that their sonic martial arts were not as powerful as Zhao Xing just now.

How chaotic was the battlefield?

Even that couldn't drown out Zhao Xing's roar.

The results were surprisingly good.

"Could we really win?" Guan Junyang, Cao Shuang, Jiang Tianming, and others nearby also became excited.

To be honest, if they could eliminate all the martial artists, they would have made history.

Since the emergence of the "Lawless Training" condition, there has never been a case of Agricultural Official winning.

Zhuang Ziqing and Shi Yong were quite clear-headed.

They knew the chances of winning were slim.

However, they didn't care about winning or losing at this moment; who would want to be constantly beaten by martial artists?

Fifteen minutes later, the turning point appeared.

After a period of chaos, two officers from the Martial Office stepped forward.

To be precise, he jumped up.

"Roar!" "Howl!"

One of them seemed to have a blue dragon appear behind him, coldly staring down.

The other person's head appeared as a roaring Lion Head.

"It's Xia Jing!"

"And Fu Ying too!"

"Oh, my ears."

"It's over, I can't hear you anymore."

Zhao Xing felt a tightness in his chest. Around him, Junior Minister of Agriculture were rolling on the ground clutching their heads. It turned out that Xia Jing on the other side had made a move, also retaliating with a sonic martial art.

"Swish swish swish swish swish~"

Twenty-three figures appeared behind Xia Jing and Fu Ying, charging towards Zhao Xing's group.

Two of the most talented warriors in the Martial Office organized a small team amidst the chaos and began to counterattack against Agricultural Official.

Although they were outnumbered, Xia Jing, Fu Ying, and others far surpassed Agricultural Official in martial arts prowess.

Although the people behind Zhao Xing, Shi Yong, and Zhuang Ziqing were somewhat weaker, most of them had cultivated their martial arts to the Seventh-Turn or higher. After all, Zhao Xing's initial requirement was to gather those with Seventh-Turn martial arts skills around him.

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!"

The two elite teams caused incredibly violent fluctuations in their spiritual energy, and the battle immediately became fierce.

"Yin Xun Nine Bursts!"

"The Lushu's Sound!"

"Raging Fire Thrusting Fist!"

"Essence Piercing Finger!"

"..."

Almost everyone suffered a lot of martial arts attacks, which came from all directions and were difficult to avoid.

Zhao Xing used the Kui Ox Thunder Roar to fight against the two geniuses, but he could only contend with them in terms of sonic martial arts.

In the First-Turn, his straw hat and raincoat were damaged.

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!"

A storm erupted on the training ground, with flying sand and stones engulfing both elite teams.

The remaining Agricultural Official and warriors were also completely infected, and they all clashed together in a frenzy.

After the chaos of the battle, it became a full-blown hand-to-hand combat, but this time the situation changed drastically.

"Puff!"

"Ah--"

"My legs!"

"Damn it, martial artists, die!"

"Get out of here, you Agricultural Official!"

"Damn it, who ripped my pants?"

"..."

The "Lawless Training" session on May 19th began at 4:45 AM.

It ended at the beginning of the Si hour!

The time was much shorter than in the previous battles.

However, the intensity and chaos far exceeded those of the previous incidents.

And the rankings have been completely overturned!

When it ended, the martial arts masters on the Tower Ship couldn't help but be astonished:

"Half of the Four Great Martial Offices did not achieve a ranking that matched their rating in this ranking."

Even Fu Ying was eliminated, and very early on; she didn't even make it into the top 1,000.

"You can't blame Fu Ying. Shi Yong, Zhao Xing, Zhuang Ziqing... all the well-known geniuses in the Agricultural Supervisorate were targeting him. With more than a dozen people attacking him, the only option was to move Fu Ying away, otherwise Fu Ying would have died too."

"The outcome of this battle was completely unexpected."

"Yes, although Martial Office won, it was a Pyrrhic victory. In the previous battles, our casualties never exceeded 1,200, but this time, we managed to fight until only 800 people were left."

"The space is too small, so there's no way to maneuver around it, and there's too little time to react."

"The most crucial point," Chen Min sighed, "Is that if Zhao Xing hadn't shouted at the very beginning, the outcome probably wouldn't have been like this."

The other martial arts masters nodded in agreement.

The Kui Ox Thunder Roar, obscuring the sun and moon, and greatly impacted the martial Fang Zhen.

The martial arts instructors offered various explanations, such as the training ground being too small, the buffer time being too short, and the strong members of the Martial Office being placed at the back while the weaker members were placed at the front.

But the most undeniable reason is Zhao Xing.

Even Fang Wu believed that the martial artists' Pyrrhic victory this time was largely due to Zhao Xing: "I feel that this kid already had ideas in the previous few times."

"Only today, with the breakthrough of Kui Ox Thunder Roar, has the plan been put into practice."

"He seized the opportunity very well. After the previous few great victories, it was the time when the Martial Office were feeling triumphant, while the Agricultural Official were holding their breath."

"Moreover, they organized from the very beginning, taking the initiative and not waiting to be attacked before taking action."

Fan Zhaoli's praise, Fang Wu couldn't help but laugh and say, "Even so, the geniuses of the Agricultural Supervisorate also paid a price; they were all eliminated early on."

"It's different." Fang Wu shook his head. "The rules are different. If the Agricultural Supervisorate also counts the number of knockdowns, Zhao Xing's damage would definitely rank him among the top... After this, our Martial Office will have to go back and give those arrogant guys a good talking-to."

"That feels so damn good!" Cao Shuang's hands were both broken, and he was grimacing in pain while receiving treatment, but he still looked excited. "Finally, I've gotten my revenge!"

"Hahaha, I've been knocked down by Fu Ying three times, and each time he broke my ribs. This time I finally broke one of his bones too." Jiang Tianming's face was swollen like a pig's head, but he was still laughing heartily.

The wounded Agricultural Supervisorate were among the first to be moved out. At this time, most of the geniuses who had passed the fourth level, including Zhao Xing Shi Yong, Zhuang Ziqing, Han Bing, Feng Qiu, Guan Junyang, were eliminated and were receiving treatment here.

But the atmosphere was incredibly high-spirited, for one simple reason: it was cathartic!

"Zhao Xing, you're awesome! You dared to be the first to charge!" Cao Shuang looked at the figure lying on a straw mat not far away, bandaged up. "I, Old Cao, admire you!"

"Zhao Xing is indeed fierce," Jiang Tianming laughed. "His Kui Ox Thunder Roar caused a lot of trouble for the other side. If it weren't for his attack, our charge might not have been so effective."

"Zhao Xing, are you dead yet? Say something! Everyone's praising you." Zhuang Ziqing laughed.

"I'm not dead. Even if you, Zhuang Ziqing, die, I won't die. Hiss..." Zhao Xing's voice came from inside the bandages.

The chubby old man next to him glanced at him and said, "Still trying to show off, huh? Shut up or I won't treat you anymore."

"Hahahaha." A burst of laughter came from the side.

After this incident, Zhao Xing's name gradually spread throughout the Agricultural Supervisorate. The Martial Office also learned that there was a man named Zhao Xing in the Agricultural Supervisorate who came from the Divine Might Army. He almost overwhelmed all the martial artists during the "Lawless Training" battle, which resulted in the Azure Dragon Martial Division's genius, Fu Ying, ranking last in this battle.

On May 20th, in the Eighteen Locust Willow Courtyard, Zhao Xing pushed open the courtyard gate, intending to go to the Great Granary Institute for the "selection training".

Although the ranking dropped once, as long as it doesn't drop three times in a row, it won't be demoted.

Zhao Xing was not afraid of being targeted later. The initiative was in his hands. Whether to fight or play defensively, he had the choice, relying on the Nine Turns [Sound-bending Melody Style] Sound Blade and Sound Thorn, as well as the Seventh-Turn [Kui Ox Thunder Roar].

"Zhao Xing, where are you going?"

"Brother Zhao, have you recovered?"

"Brother Zhao, shall we go and study this together?"

As he walked down the street, many people greeted Zhao Xing.

Although he didn't know many of the people, they all knew Zhao Xing.

Seeing people greeting him on the street, Zhao Xing smiled and responded.

"This fight wasn't for nothing. After this experience, I've gotten to know the geniuses from the Four Great Academies quite a bit, and my relationship with the geniuses from the Earthly Advantage Institute has deepened a bit," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

"We're all stationed in the same Grotto-Heaven, and if we end up in a position, we're from the same reserve class and have some connections, so we might come in handy."

Zhao Xing took out the Earth Mirror and looked at it. "I don't feel any pressure with the first mandatory training lesson. Next, I just need to improve myself based on the elective training courses."

"Let's go check out Great Granary Institute first."

Great Granary Institute, on a fertile and flat piece of land.

Lu Bang rode Flowing Cloud Flying Boat and descended at low altitude.

At this time, many Agricultural Official were already waiting here below.

They came to attend Lu Bang's training course.

"My training method is very simple."

"That's farming."

Lu Bang pointed to the land in front of him and said, "This whole area is farmland. It has been specially treated and is extremely fertile. You can cast spells freely here."

"The Heavenly Timing here has also been changed to two auspicious days for farming."

"The Heavenly Timing and Earthly Advantage Institute are both ideal, and everyone's initial conditions are the same."

"Seed bags and seedlings in the breeding area can be selected at will, ranging from level three to level four."

"You can choose whichever you like to plant."

"I have only one request for you, and that is speed!"

"Whether it's a seedling or a seed, you must find a way to get it to maturity, flower, and bear fruit as quickly as possible."

"If you want me to give you a passing grade of C, you must select third-tier seeds or seedlings that can complete flowering and fruiting within six hours and enter the maturity stage. For fourth-tier seeds, the time limit is extended to twelve hours."

"For me to award you Grade B rating, you need to allow a third-tier seed or seedling to mature within three hours. A fourth-tier seed or seedling takes six hours."

"To achieve Grade A rating, a third-tier seed or seedling must reach maturity within one hour, while a fourth-tier seed or seedling must reach maturity within two hours."

Lu Bang finished speaking with a smile, First-Turn: "Don't even think about cheating. Once cheating is discovered, no matter what level of genius you are, you will be expelled."

"You have one year to complete this training course; you only need to pass it within one year."

"If you want to get a good score, go to Great Granary Institute to study the All Things Growth Chart', or diligently practice the Yin Yang True Self Scripture, or go to the 'Primordial Dao Field' to study."

Zhao Xing stood below, listened to Lu Bang's request, and then ran to the breeding area to select seedlings or seeds.

"The land is indeed fertile, and this is training; there's no need for competition."

"There's no need to fight over clouds and grab resources."

Lu Bang was True Self Faction who had already excluded the factors of Heavenly Timing and Earthly Advantage Institute, and now he wanted the Agricultural Official to cultivate these seeds and seedlings using only True Self Faction methods.

"Focusing solely on speed, with the land being infinitely fertile, is testing the Military Sima Nong's ability to produce supplies for the army."

"When an army marches and fights, the supply of provisions is a major problem. However, with the establishment of the Military Sima Nong, the supply burden has been greatly reduced, because only a small amount of seeds or seedlings need to be carried, and the land can be planted wherever the battle takes place."

"If we can achieve maturity in a very short time, regardless of Earthly Advantage Institute or Heavenly Timing conditions, the army will not starve wherever it goes."

Of course, training is training, but in reality, factors such as Heavenly Timing and Earthly Advantage Institute must be taken into account.

The Great Zhou always focused on external expansion. During the conquests, there was no need to worry about abandoning the land, because the land wasn't even theirs yet. They would conquer it first and then consider cultivating it.

"To get Grade A rating, a third-tier plant or seedling needs to reach maturity within an hour, which is too difficult."

Zhao Xing tried it out, and sure enough, the Earth Veins Synthesis could no longer make the soil more fertile.

The True Self Faction spell left is [Savage Growth].

The initial stage of Flourishing Growth has no significant effect.

"The Savage Growth has reached the mid-stage Nine Turns, but it still cannot mature within an hour."

"If I only know one spell, I can only get a B grade in Lu Bang's compulsory training course."

A Grade B rating, while excellent, is still not enough for Zhao Xing.

Because he was trained using resources from Grade A, only those who received a top-tier rating in the selection and training process were considered qualified.

"Very well, let's learn this spell from our True Self Faction first."

The influence of the True Self Faction was not apparent during this period, a conclusion Zhao Xing drew from the perspective of the entire school of thought and from comparisons between different periods.

At his current level, the True Self Faction spells are still very useful, and he should learn some spells to protect himself.

"If a group has a Military Sima Nong who is skilled in the True Self Faction of magic, they will never starve. Even if they are trapped or surrounded, they can hold out for a longer period of time."

"The magic of the True Self Faction can make plants stronger, and can even be applied to some extreme environments, such as growing food in lava."

We are currently in a period of "Lawless Training" intervals, so there aren't many training courses available yet.

Lu Bang's training course was relatively simple, involving only one school of magic, and he didn't want to miss out on the evaluation of this elective course.

"I have two free opportunities to enter the Primordial Dao Field of Great Granary Institute. I wonder if I can comprehend the extraordinary technique of the Original True Self Faction School." Zhao Xing recalled some experiences from his previous life. "If I can comprehend this extraordinary technique early, it will greatly help my future development, and may even allow me to condense the Pure Origin Soil ahead of time!"

That's all for today. Everyone should get some rest. I need to rest too.

By the way, here's a poll: if you want the author to write the third chapter and release it all at once, type 1, but it will be very late.

If you think it's better to release them separately, and release one chapter at a time, please comment "2".
