Strong Strike, Tenacity!

What??

Hearing Lan Linglong's words and looking at her face, Lu Sheng was completely stunned.

Lan Linglong was actually a Viscera Refining Realm martial artist!

Just as Lan Linglong had said, there were fewer than twenty Viscera Refining Realm martial artists in all of Cloud City, and Lan Linglong was one of them!

How was that possible!

Lan Linglong looked barely past twenty, only two or three years older than him at most, yet she was already a Viscera Refining Realm martial artist?

That talent...

No wonder Lan Linglong was so respected by the Outer Disciples at Heaven and Earth Dojo.

So, aside from being Kong Yunzhang's second personal disciple, she possessed such terrifying strength!

Lan Linglong said nothing as she watched Lu Sheng's expression. She merely waited silently—or rather... observed him.

She wanted to see how her Junior Disciple Brother would react after learning of her strength!

Very quickly, Lu Sheng recovered from his shock. After letting out a bitter laugh, a look of Tenacity filled his face.

"I never expected Senior Sister's talent to be so terrifying, but..."

Lu Sheng's heart gradually calmed.

Lan Linglong's talent was indeed terrifying, but he had the system with him. With the Martial Arts Talent that refreshed every week, sooner or later, he would reach her level—and perhaps even... surpass her!!

Seeing Lu Sheng calm down so quickly, Lan Linglong was somewhat surprised. Her assessment of him rose another notch.

Then Lan Linglong slowly said, "As for your second question—what kind of person is First Senior Sister?"

As she spoke, a look of reverence appeared on her beautiful face. "First Senior Sister is Master's daughter, and she is also... a true monster!"

Lu Sheng was somewhat surprised. Master's daughter?

But beyond that, what shocked Lu Sheng even more was the latter half of Lan Linglong's words!

Lan Linglong's talent was already extremely terrifying in Lu Sheng's eyes, yet according to her, this First Senior Sister whom he had never met was the true monster!

Then just how terrifying was this First Senior Sister of his?

Above the Viscera Refining Realm?

Lu Sheng did not even dare imagine it.

After all, Lu Sheng was only at the Fourth Layer of Blood Qi. Let alone the Viscera Refining Realm, even Blood Refining Realm martial artists were terrifying existences in his eyes.

Afterward, the two chatted for a while longer and finalized the cultivation plan.

Under Lan Linglong's plan, aside from studying in the Martial Arts Class, Lu Sheng was to come to Heaven and Earth Dojo whenever he had time to practice Arhat Fist. At the same time, Lan Linglong would give him some guidance.

On the path of martial arts, progress would naturally be slow if one relied solely on fumbling one's way forward. But with the guidance of an expert, that progress could be much faster!

And so, over the following days, aside from completing the Martial Arts Class's training assignments, Lu Sheng went to Heaven and Earth Dojo to cultivate whenever he had free time.

These days truly let Lu Sheng taste the meaning of being busy.

Though Lan Linglong was extremely gentle in person, she became a completely different person when teaching Lu Sheng cultivation.

She was exceptionally strict.

Whenever Lu Sheng was even slightly improper in his movements, or failed to meet Lan Linglong's standards, he would be punished by her.

By comparison, training at the Martial Arts Class had instead become a way for Lu Sheng to rest.

Yet not only did Lu Sheng feel no resentment toward this, he actually reveled in it. Although cultivation was somewhat difficult, he could clearly feel his strength improving at an astonishing pace.

Just like that, two weeks passed.

At night, Lu Sheng sat cross-legged on the bed at home. His body appeared a little leaner than it had two weeks ago.

Yet beneath his clothes, one could see the exceptionally well-toned muscles on his body.

As though they were filled with endless power.

After two weeks of cultivation, with Lan Linglong's guidance and the resources rewarded by the Martial Arts Class, Lu Sheng successfully raised his cultivation to Blood Qi Layer Six.

One had to know that the further a martial artist advanced, the more difficult each breakthrough became. To rise two realms in two weeks, aside from the boost from Level Up!, Lan Linglong's guidance had also been extremely important.

At this thought, Lu Sheng's heart stirred slightly.

Then the system panel appeared before Lu Sheng's eyes.

Host: Lu Sheng!

Cultivation: Blood Qi Layer Six!

Martial Art: "Arhat Fist" (Minor Mastery!)

Martial Arts Talent: Level Up! (Purple) Fist Master (Blue) Strong Strike (White)

Looking at his system panel, Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Strong Strike talent had refreshed for Lu Sheng last week. It was merely an ordinary white talent.

Its effect was only that, during battle, it had a chance of triggering Strong Strike, increasing the power of his attacks to one hundred and fifty percent.

And its trigger rate was very low—only a five percent chance.

But it was only an ordinary white talent, so Lu Sheng had not expected too much from it.

"By my calculations, the talent can refresh today. I wonder what kind of Martial Arts Talent I'll get this time!"

Lu Sheng murmured softly, anticipation gleaming in his eyes.

"System, refresh!"

Ding, refreshing Martial Arts Talent. Please wait...

The familiar electronic voice rang out in Lu Sheng's mind.

Ding, system refresh successful. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the green-quality talent—Tenacity.

Tenacity: A heart like a boulder, standing firm and unyielding! The Host's willpower is enhanced. In the face of any difficulty, the Host will confront it with a tenacious heart!

As the Martial Arts Talent refreshed, Lu Sheng immediately felt that his mindset seemed to undergo a subtle change.

The things that had troubled Lu Sheng before now seemed like no great matter to him.

It was as though any problem would unravel itself before the force of his persistence.

"Tenacity..."

Lu Sheng blinked. Although this Tenacity talent did not improve his strength, cultivation, or even cultivation talent, it was still a decent supportive Martial Arts Talent.

With this talent, his mindset would become more stable. When facing difficulties in the future, he would be able to confront them calmly with his tenacious heart.

"Not bad at all!"

Lu Sheng raised his brows. After smiling, he lay down on the bed and prepared to rest.
