It was not until Lu Sheng's figure disappeared into the Heaven and Earth Dojo.

That the Outer Disciples of the Heaven and Earth Dojo gradually came back to their senses, the shock in their eyes fading bit by bit.

"Third Senior Brother is still Third Senior Brother, after all!"

"Yeah, anyone who can become the Dojo Master's disciple is bound to be a monster!"

Their faces were left with nothing but respect.

Yet Lu Sheng knew nothing of any of this.

After returning to his shabby rented room, he lay flat on the bed. Although he had Blood Qi Pills to assist him while practicing the Arhat Fist.

It was still extremely exhausting.

Lying on the bed, Lu Sheng took a glass bottle from his pocket.

Inside the glass bottle lay a black pill in silence.

The moment he looked at that black pill, Lu Sheng's eyes lit up.

"A Limit Breaking Pill? Then let's set a small goal first: raise my Blood Qi to its limit!"

To be honest, Lu Sheng did not know how high his Blood Qi Limit could reach. Based on his original talent, ten points should have been his limit.

But with the boost from Level Up!, his talent had already improved. He did not know whether his Blood Qi Limit would improve as well.

Still, even if it did not, this Limit Breaking Pill could raise his Blood Qi Limit to around eleven or twelve points.

That would already be quite good.

With that in mind, Lu Sheng solemnly hid the Limit Breaking Pill somewhere discreet. Only then did he return to bed in satisfaction and fall asleep peacefully.

The next day, Lu Sheng rose in high spirits. After washing up briefly, he went to Cloud City First High School, intending to finish the Martial Arts Class training as quickly as possible.

For the current Lu Sheng, simply sparring with Martial Arts Puppets was basically of no great help to his cultivation.

It was instead a waste of time.

For Lu Sheng, leaving the city to hunt Fierce Beasts was what would benefit him the most.

After spending an hour completing the training Chen Zhen had assigned, Lu Sheng packed his things, changed into a white combat training uniform, and headed toward the city gates.

When he passed through the gates, Lu Sheng skillfully handed the token Lan Linglong had given him to the soldiers on guard, then easily walked out of the city.

Just as Lu Sheng left the city gates, behind a large tree nearby.

A middle-aged man in plain cloth silently watched Lu Sheng's departing figure. Only after Lu Sheng had left the city did a sharp glint appear in his calm eyes.

"I thought I'd have to spend some effort finding an opportunity. Who would have thought this brat would actually dare to leave the city directly!"

"In that case, heaven is truly helping me!"

The middle-aged man muttered, a vicious glimmer surfacing in his eyes.

"Kid, don't blame me. Your talent may be good, but in Cloud City, once you've offended the young master, I can only follow orders."

The middle-aged man spoke softly, then quickly left the city gates.

Yet just as the middle-aged man left the city, Lan Linglong, dressed in a black combat uniform, quietly emerged from somewhere.

Her autumn-water eyes gently settled upon the middle-aged man.

"Someone is actually following Junior Disciple Brother..."

Lan Linglong parted her lips lightly. Frost covered her gentle face.

"You'd better not let me see you lay a hand on Junior Disciple Brother. Otherwise... I don't care where in Cloud City you come from..."

Lan Linglong's voice carried an extreme killing intent, entirely at odds with her gentle temperament.

Although Lan Linglong had said that Lu Sheng should train alone in the wilderness, how could she, as his senior sister, possibly allow him to walk into danger so easily?

Though the area where Lu Sheng was currently training did not have any particularly powerful Fierce Beasts, sometimes it was not fear of the ten thousand, but fear of the one.

Countless thoughts churned through Lan Linglong's mind. With a slight flicker of her figure, she vanished from where she stood.

Within the forest.

Lu Sheng stood barehanded before an enormous striped tiger.

On the tiger's forehead, a crooked "king" character exuded an air of majesty.

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!!

The tiger's huge eyes stared fixedly at Lu Sheng.

Its roar exploded through the air, while surging, violent Blood Qi spread from its body.

This tiger Fierce Beast was actually a Blood Qi Layer Eight Fierce Beast!!

"Sure enough, there's still a huge difference between Martial Arts Puppets and martial artists, or even Fierce Beasts. This is merely a Blood Qi Layer Eight Fierce Beast, yet it feels comparable to a Blood Qi Layer Nine Martial Arts Puppet."

Thoughts flashed rapidly through Lu Sheng's mind.

Then his figure abruptly shot toward the tiger Fierce Beast before him.

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!!!

Seeing that Lu Sheng had not been intimidated by its aura, the tiger flew into a rage. It opened its bloody maw and lunged at him.

However, Lu Sheng had dealt with Fierce Beasts frequently during this time. His combat experience had long since become a world apart from what it once was, and coupled with his perfected Arhat Fist.

The current Lu Sheng...

Unless it was a Blood Qi Layer Nine martial artist or Fierce Beast, there was practically nothing capable of threatening him!

"Break!!"

Lu Sheng gave a low shout. Strands of golden radiance instantly flickered across his fist.

That brilliant golden glow seemed to carry an edge sharp enough to cut.

It swept forward in an instant.

BOOM!!

His fist, carrying terrifying power, smashed into the tiger Fierce Beast. At the moment of impact, it directly punched through the tiger's body.

The next moment, the tiger's eyes rapidly dimmed.

In the end...

All life drained from it.

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow slightly. With practiced ease, he skinned the tiger, then used a small knife to cut up its flesh and place it in his backpack.

The flesh of Fierce Beasts, along with certain specific parts, was a great tonic for martial artists.

Even if Lu Sheng had no use for it himself, he could exchange it for money at the market.

It counted as a bit of extra income during cultivation.

Just as Lu Sheng finished dealing with the tiger's corpse and prepared to venture deeper into the forest, his body stiffened slightly as he stopped where he was.

His gaze turned forward.

Ahead of Lu Sheng, a Middle-aged Man in Hemp Clothes had appeared at some unknown time. The man's appearance was utterly ordinary, but when his gaze fell upon Lu Sheng.

An intensely powerful sense of danger instantly surged into Lu Sheng's mind.
