"Breaking Void Spear?"

Lin Tian was somewhat puzzled.

"The Breaking Void Spear technique was obtained from a Secret Realm. It is an extremely offensive martial skill."

"The minimum requirement for using this martial skill is the Martial Dao Third Level. If you can cultivate it to Mastered, it can still unleash considerable power even at the Martial Dao Seventh Level."

"Martial skills are divided into beginner, proficient, Mastered, and even higher levels of mastery. Cultivating a martial skill to Mastered is already enough."

Nangong Ya explained.

"With your Extreme Martial Artist physique, cultivating this martial skill should not be a problem. Besides, your progress is too fast. You will probably reach the Martial Dao Third Level before long, and this martial skill suits you perfectly."

"If you need other martial skills later on, Golden Wing can help screen them for you, but that will have to wait until after you enroll."

"The Golden Wing given to you will receive special authorization."

"Then I'll listen to you and choose this martial skill."

Lin Tian nodded.

"The Breaking Void Spear is a very good martial skill. I happen to know a Martial Saint who uses a spear..."

"I'm not considering going to the Imperial Capital."

Before the Martial Saint Yuanming could finish speaking, Lin Tian interrupted him, leaving him rather depressed.

"Magic City University has powerful spear users, though none of them are Martial Saints. The strongest is a Martial King."

Nangong Ya replied.

There truly were not many martial artists who used spears, and even fewer with profound cultivation.

"Come on. Follow me to the Technique Library and retrieve this martial skill."

"Can't Golden Wing transmit it directly?"

"My Golden Wing does not have that authorization."

Nangong Ya shook her head.

Before long, the three arrived in front of the Technique Library.

Though it was called a Technique Library, it looked more like a heavily fortified building. At the very least, Lin Tian could not see how one was supposed to enter it. There was not even a door.

"Lord Yuanming, please wait here for a moment."

Nangong Ya respectfully bowed to the Martial Saint Yuanming.

"Enough, enough. You two go in."

The Martial Saint Yuanming waved his hand.

He was from Dragon Soaring University, so naturally Magic City University's Technique Library would not allow him inside.

"Let's go in."

Nangong Ya immediately led Lin Tian toward the Technique Library. When they reached the building, Golden Wing beside her flashed both tiny hands, and a door suddenly appeared in the wall before them.

"The defenses of the Technique Library cannot be destroyed even by a Martial King. It is not merely Magic City University's treasure, but a treasure of the entire Dragon Nation."

As Nangong Ya explained, she led Lin Tian into the Technique Library.

After entering, Lin Tian found it completely different from what he had imagined. Many of the techniques inside were actually displayed as scrolls and books.

And before each of those techniques stood a transparent barrier.

"These techniques can only be viewed with the school's permission. Golden Wing only contains their most basic information."

"These barriers protect the techniques. Only those with the corresponding authorization can obtain them, and Golden Wing is also responsible for acquiring them."

"Even I rarely enter the Technique Library."

Nangong Ya walked to a scroll and explained it to Lin Tian. The scroll represented the Breaking Void Spear.

Golden Wing beside her flew directly before the transparent barrier around the scroll, touching it with tiny hands.

Streams of azure light continuously flowed into Golden Wing's hands.

"This is how Golden Wing acquires techniques."

"Once someone has cultivated a technique or martial skill to proficiency, aren't you afraid students will pass it on to others?"

Lin Tian asked.

Although the method of acquiring techniques was very secure, how could they ensure the techniques would not be leaked?

"That is difficult to guarantee."

Nangong Ya's words surprised Lin Tian.

"Over four years of university life, many students can learn some techniques or martial skills and even pass them on to others. The school cannot stop this, nor will it."

"This is something tacitly permitted throughout the Dragon Nation, so that more people may have the chance to grow stronger."

"Of course, these are relatively ordinary techniques and martial skills. Those powerful techniques and martial skills cannot be mastered within four years of university."

"As for graduate and doctoral students, they have the ability to master them and pass them on to others. But those people are already strong enough, their numbers are not large, and the school can control this matter."

After hearing Nangong Ya's explanation, Lin Tian finally understood where the ordinary techniques and martial skills on the market came from.

While the two were talking, Golden Wing had already finished collecting the martial skill.

"Alright, let's go."

"This martial skill cannot be learned in a day or two. Shall we take a look around Magic City first?"

After leaving the Technique Library, Nangong Ya asked.

"Sure."

Seeing Lin Tian agree, Nangong Ya looked at the Martial Saint Yuanming.

"Lord Yuanming, would you like to come along?"

"Lin Tian's villa will take several days to finish. Magic City has prepared accommodations for you. Would you like to take a look?"

"Why go to the accommodations Magic City prepared? We can just go straight to your Nangong Family."

"The Nangong Family is such a good place. It would be a waste not to go."

The Martial Saint Yuanming waved his hand.

"Uh, then I'll inform my family..."

Nangong Ya said helplessly.

"Old man, are you very familiar with the Nangong Family?"

Lin Tian took the opportunity to walk over to the Martial Saint Yuanming.

"What old man? Am I that old?"

The instant the Martial Saint Yuanming heard the words "old man," he exploded.

"Aren't you old?"

"How many hundreds of years old are you?"

Lin Tian looked at him with disgust. Though the Martial Saint Yuanming looked like an uncle in his forties or fifties, his real age was definitely that of an old man several centuries old.

"Kid, don't you know that asking someone's age is extremely rude?"

"If you don't believe me, go ask that little girl from the Nangong Family. She still isn't married—see if she doesn't beat you to death!"

The Martial Saint Yuanming looked furious.

Lin Tian glanced at Nangong Ya upon hearing that. This woman was probably an old granny in her seventies or eighties, yet she was still unmarried. That truly shocked him.

Still unmarried at that age—could it be that no one wanted her?

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Nangong Ya glared viciously at Lin Tian. Just now, she had sensed an extremely unfriendly gaze.

"Um, please continue, please continue."

Seeing this, Lin Tian hurriedly ran behind the Martial Saint Yuanming.

"Hmph!"

Nangong Ya continued contacting members of the Nangong Family.

Before long, Lin Tian and the Martial Saint Yuanming heard her voice.

"The Lineage has agreed and arranged accommodations for you. You may stay as long as you wish."

"That was quick. The Nangong Family is much better than the accommodations Magic City arranged."

The Martial Saint Yuanming smiled broadly.

"Oh, that would be far too embarrassing. Let's hurry and go."

Lin Tian chuckled when he heard that. If he could stay somewhere nice, he certainly would not go to the place Magic City had arranged.

Even a Saint Realm expert like the Martial Saint Yuanming wanted to visit the Nangong Family. Lin Tian was looking forward to seeing what the Nangong Family was like.

"You brat, I hope you can still keep up this attitude after arriving at the Nangong Family."

The Martial Saint Yuanming curled his lips into a smile, waiting to see how Lin Tian would behave after entering the Nangong Family.

"What is it? What's with the Nangong Family?"

Hearing this, Lin Tian had a bad feeling.

With Lin Tian's face full of confusion, the three set off for the Nangong Family.
