"Kid, settle down and cultivate properly during this time."
"Throughout the three years of high school, no matter your status, you can only use Blood Qi Pills for cultivation. This is also meant to lay a solid foundation for everyone."
"After the college entrance examination comes the time to erupt."
"Descendants of great families possess top-tier cultivation techniques and rare resources. During this period, their Blood Qi growth rate will probably not be any slower than yours."
Martial Saint Yuanming spoke earnestly to Lin Tian.
"They can raise their Blood Qi by two hundred points in a dozen days?"
Lin Tian was somewhat shocked upon hearing this.
"Cough, cough. Naturally, they can't do that, but increasing it by ten points a day is still no problem."
Martial Saint Yuanming was a little embarrassed.
"The cultivation techniques practiced by descendants of great families grow stronger and stronger as their cultivation rises."
"Take the Nangong Family's little Ya and little Qingwan, who is of the same generation as you."
"The two are decades apart in age, yet their cultivation levels differ by a full seven major realms."
"If I remember correctly, little Ya should be over fifty now. When the college entrance examination ended back then, her cultivation was still below that of her niece Qingwan."
"Yet just over thirty years brought her cultivation to the Martial Dao Ninth Level. That is the terror of a top great family."
After hearing Martial Saint Yuanming's explanation, Lin Tian already understood what Martial Saint Yuanming had in mind.
He wanted Lin Tian to raise his cultivation as quickly as possible and uphold the legend of the Extreme Martial Artist's invincibility.
"As for cultivation resources, don't worry. In order to befriend an Extreme Martial Artist like you, the Nangong Family has provided quite a few rare resources."
As Martial Saint Yuanming spoke, a ring suddenly appeared in his hand.
"This is quite a fine treasure."
"I know, a spatial ring. They're written about in novels."
Lin Tian answered first. This was a world of high martial arts, so naturally there would be corresponding literary works.
"Uh... since you know, I won't explain it."
"This was also given to you by the Nangong Family."
Martial Saint Yuanming paused, then took all the cultivation resources out of the spatial ring.
"A spatial ring requires mental power to open. You don't have mental power yet, so I'll take all the resources out for you first."
"Cultivate properly these next few days. Half a month from now, I'll take you to the Magic City auction to have a look."
With that, Martial Saint Yuanming left directly.
"The Nangong Family really gave quite a lot. With the help of these resources, I can still raise my Blood Qi by twenty points after finishing my martial skill cultivation."
Lin Tian was somewhat surprised.
Martial Saint Fancang in the Small World had already explained every one of these resources to him. They were all the resources best suited to his current cultivation.
"I don't need to worry about raising my cultivation. My goal now is to master the martial skills I already have."
Lin Tian knew that what he lacked most right now was combat ability.
Whether it was fighting the students of Qing City First High School's Experimental Class or hunting demonic beasts during the college entrance examination, he had relied on his powerful Blood Qi to defeat them.
His combat methods were far too few.
Blood Devouring Armor enhanced his own defense, while his only offensive method was the Savage Fist temporarily created by Martial Saint Fancang.
"I need to master the Breaking Void Spear as soon as possible. Only then will I have a sufficiently powerful offensive method."
"An inch longer, an inch stronger. With my already formidable defense paired with the fierce attacks of a spear, only two words can describe it."
"Invincible!"
Afterward, Lin Tian happily began cultivating.
"So hard!"
A cry of surprise escaped Nangong Qingwan's lips.
Her longsword had struck Lin Tian's Blood Devouring Armor squarely, and the armor's hardness had jolted her hand numb.
Before she could recover from her shock, Lin Tian's spear was already right before her. Nangong Qingwan narrowly dodged it and rapidly retreated.
Yet Lin Tian pursued relentlessly, continuously swinging the spear in his hand to launch attacks at Nangong Qingwan.
"Lin Tian is fighting a bit unfairly."
Watching the battle, Nangong Ya felt somewhat indignant. Beside her stood six others: five siblings of the Nangong Family from her generation, along with Martial Saint Yuanming.
"This is a battle. There is nothing wrong with Lin Tian using his own martial skills against an opponent."
Nangong Yi said indifferently.
"Does Lord Yuanming know what martial skill that is?"
"I don't. Lin Tian used it during the college entrance examination. Who knows where he got it from? This martial skill requires enormous Blood Qi to activate, so it suits an Extreme Martial Artist like him perfectly."
Martial Saint Yuanming shook his head.
Today was the tenth day since Lin Tian had arrived at the Nangong Family. Only at Nangong Qingwan's request had Lin Tian agreed to battle her.
"Lin Tian has already reached Martial Dao Second Layer Mid-stage. A daily Blood Qi increase of twenty points—what a freak."
The moment Martial Saint Yuanming said this, the six members of the Nangong Family were all shocked. Lin Tian's terrifying cultivation speed truly was monstrous.
"Lin Tian's spear technique has improved greatly. I just wonder whether he has mastered the Breaking Void Spear yet."
"Impossible, right? If he possessed such a terrifying cultivation speed while mastering the Breaking Void Spear at the same time, that simply isn't something a human can accomplish."
"I was only saying."
Martial Saint Yuanming smiled and shook his head.
But that was not what he thought in his heart.
Back at Qing City First High School, Lin Tian had been able to raise his Blood Qi by twenty points a day even with only Blood Qi Pills.
Now that he had the resources provided by the Nangong Family, his daily Blood Qi increase was still only twenty points.
He knew that Lin Tian had spent most of his time cultivating the Breaking Void Spear. The reason he had not used it was probably to give the Nangong Family some face.
"Big Sister, this battle will probably end in a draw. Lin Tian is fighting too unfairly."
Nangong Ya looked toward a beautiful married woman. She was the eldest of their generation, their eldest sister Nangong Yun, already a terrifying existence in the Extraordinary Realm.
"Lin Tian has already won."
Nangong Yun smiled faintly.
"He should have already mastered the Breaking Void Spear. Judging from the way he wields his spear, there are traces of the Breaking Void Spear in it."
"This little fellow is taking the Nangong Family's dignity into consideration."
Martial Saint Yuanming was somewhat surprised. Nangong Yun truly was the Nangong Family's greatest prodigy; merely by watching Lin Tian fight, she could guess this.
Even some Martial Saints would not believe such a thing. It was far too outrageous.
"Ah, he has already mastered the Breaking Void Spear?"
Nangong Ya was dumbfounded.
"And he can still increase his Blood Qi by twenty points every day?!"
"That is what makes this little fellow terrifying. Those born in the same era as him should rejoice that they can witness the rise of an invincible being, yet mourn that they were born in the same era as one."
Nangong Yun shook her head slightly.
As she had expected, the battle ended in a draw.
"Not bad, little fellow."
Nangong Yun looked at Lin Tian with a smile, then turned and left.
"Yes. Let Lin Tian stay with the Nangong Family until school starts."
Hearing this, Nangong Yi said to Nangong Sheng and the others.
Several more days passed.
Lin Tian, sitting on his bed, was incomparably excited.
"It has finally been a month!"
A month had passed since the system appeared. He could finally summon another powerful expert.
"It has been a month already. The system said that the sign-in rewards and the cultivation of summoned characters would increase as time passed and as my cultivation rose."
"I wonder whether just one month will give me something good."
"I should leave myself a little anticipation. Let's sign in first."
Having made his decision, Lin Tian spoke directly to the system.
"System, carry out today's sign-in."
"Ding! Sign-in successful. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining wind and lightning dual-element abilities."
