Sudden Enlightenment! Spear Technique Perfected!

Both of them knew something about the third trial.

So neither found it surprising.

"Two? I want to fight twenty!"

Ye Fan said seriously.

"Ha ha..."

If Ye Fan had truly said that he could defeat two silver gatekeepers by risking his life,

then, based on Ye Fan's past temperament of bitter cultivation and his attainments in Martial Arts Mastery,

Jin Lian might have believed him.

But Ye Fan had opened his mouth and claimed ten times that number?!

It was simply laughable!

"Ye Fan, you've truly disappointed me. I never thought that you'd become so vain, and you don't even blush when you lie."

"If you think this can draw my attention, then you're gravely mistaken."

"Compared to Brother Mufeng, you're utterly worthless."

Jin Lian mocked.

Outside, before the Glazed Screen, Bai Mufeng's face turned green, then red.

If you wanted to brag, could you leave me out of it?

"Uncle, this kid's comprehension..."

"Shut up!"

Just as Bai Mufeng was about to say something, Bai Nuli directly cut him off.

Had they not been humiliated enough already?

Besides, his eldest nephew's poisonous praise was far too lethal!

"Heh..."

Ye Fan sneered and could not be bothered to pay Jin Lian any further attention.

Back then, because of Jin Lian's betrayal, he might have been angry and furious.

But now, he had completely let it go.

Yesterday's you looked down on me.

Today's me is beyond your reach!

Suddenly, an illusory attribute panel appeared before Ye Fan's eyes:

Name: Ye Fan.

Vitality Value: 215 (Cloud Stream Realm Grade 2).

Mental Power: 15.

Willpower: 22.

Martial Arts Mastery: Tier 1 Fist Technique (91%), Tier 1 Spear Technique (50%).

Bloodline Physique: Nine-Star Hegemonic Body.

Detection function activated. The host may detect any target. Current detection limit: Cloud Stream Realm Grade 9 peak—Vitality Value 1999.

"Last night, I used ten Enlightenment Points to cultivate my Tier 1 Fist Technique to 90%. After that fierce battle just now, it actually rose by another point."

"And the Nine-Star Hegemonic Body is still increasing my vitality?!"

"In less than a day, I not only stepped into the Cloud Stream Realm, but have now even reached Cloud Stream Realm Grade 2!"

Ye Fan took a deep breath and calmed his surging emotions.

"Then I'll use the upcoming Comprehension Assessment to improve my Spear Technique."

With a turn of thought, Ye Fan made his decision.

After all, the weapon he had mainly trained with before was the long spear.

Ye Fan was tall and powerfully built, and he liked heavy weapons that opened and closed with sweeping force.

An inch longer, an inch stronger!

The long spear was the weapon destined for Ye Fan.

Ye Fan walked over to the weapon rack, where several long spears rested.

He selected the heaviest one. Weighing it in his hand, it came to nearly a hundred jin.

That weight even surpassed the Green Dragon Crescent Blade once wielded by Lord Guan, a Martial Saint from Huaxia's history.

However, the Human Race had now set off a frenzy of evolution.

And with Ye Fan's Vitality Value having reached 215 points, equivalent to more than two thousand kilograms of strength,

this long spear was absolutely obedient in Ye Fan's hands, striking wherever he pointed without the slightest issue.

"Select spear combat techniques!"

Blue Star had entered the age of high martial arts, and its technology was likewise incredibly advanced, with AI algorithms beyond imagination!

At Ye Fan's command, the vast sea of virtual books ahead immediately began to move.

"Mortal-grade Martial Art—Zilong Spear."

"Mortal-grade Martial Art—Roaring Dragon Spear."

"Mortal-grade Martial Art—Five Tigers Door-Breaking Spear."

Ye Fan rapidly scrolled downward, directly skipping past the Mortal-grade Martial Arts and fixing his attention upon the Spirit Tier Martial Arts.

"Spirit Tier Martial Art—Ghost Howl Yin Wind Spear."

"Spirit Tier Martial Art—Three Thousand Thunders Move Spear."

"Spirit Tier Martial Art—Peerless Overlord Spear."

When he saw the Peerless Overlord Spear, Ye Fan immediately opened its detailed information.

"Peerless Overlord Spear: renowned for its fierce might and tyranny. Armor Piercing and Forceful power are its defining traits.

"The long spear points slantwise at the southern sky, then lifts the enemies before the battlefield. Nothing can stand in its way; it is like the Overlord of the spear path, peerless beneath heaven!"

"Good, it's you."

Ye Fan's eyes lit up.

While Ye Fan was choosing a martial art, Jin Lian also selected her weapon.

She chose two short swords.

They perfectly embodied the weapon principle: an inch shorter, an inch more dangerous.

Likewise, Jin Lian chose a Spirit Tier Martial Art.

The two of them began to study their techniques.

As Jin Lian contemplated hers, she began to practice it.

On Ye Fan's side, however, he read through the Peerless Overlord Spear combat technique again and again.

Yet he was not in any rush to begin practicing and training it.

Back when he was at Linjiang No. 1 High School, his martial arts teacher had told Ye Fan: read a book a hundred times, and its meaning will reveal itself.

Thus, Ye Fan had developed this habit.

What was more, today was the day of Star Martial Hall's assessment.

His father was still waiting for the money that would save his life, so Ye Fan could not afford any mistakes.

Moreover, with Ye Fan's Mental Power now as high as 15 points,

he had actually already committed the entire Peerless Overlord Spear to memory by the third reading.

But he was not in a hurry, continuing to savor it line by line.

"Uncle, look at Jin Lian's comprehension. It really is impressive. She has already gotten the sword technique through the door."

"It already carries a hint of ethereal unpredictability and solemn killing intent."

Within the third trial, the short swords in Jin Lian's hands had already begun to display the flavor of that Spirit Tier Martial Art combat technique.

She truly deserved her S-rank Spiritual Aptitude. Her talent and comprehension were astonishing.

In contrast, Ye Fan merely examined the martial art, standing there motionless as though he were a block of wood.

"Could it be that the kid's comprehension truly isn't good?"

Some light returned to Bai Nuli's eyes.

Seeing Ye Fan remain motionless, even Instructor Wu Xie, who had originally been extremely confident in Ye Fan, showed a trace of anxiety on his face.

One had to know,

he had just boasted to Hall Master Yin that Ye Fan's comprehension was absolutely exceptional.

Yet this kid was now giving him a display of standing completely still?

It was only a Spirit Tier Martial Art. Anyone who did not know better would think he was comprehending a King-grade Martial Art.

Just as Hall Master Yin was beginning to furrow his brow,

Ye Fan finally moved.

He first relied on his Tier 1 Spear Technique Martial Arts Mastery at 50% to begin practicing the Peerless Overlord Spear.

His movements were broad and sweeping, his bearing extraordinary.

But he was still a long way from truly getting the Peerless Overlord Spear through the door.

At this pace, by the end of three hours, Jin Lian would definitely leave him far behind.

And now, less than an hour remained.

Martial art combat technique proficiency was divided into: Entry (10%), Minor Accomplishment (30%), Major Accomplishment (70%), and Perfection (90%).

It was said that beyond those lay Transcendent Saint (99%) and Return to Simplicity (100%).

But almost no one had ever reached them.

After all, these martial art combat techniques had all been created by predecessors.

Perhaps only their original creators could reach the realms of Transcendent Saint and Return to Simplicity.

"There's only half an hour left. Ah, Ye Fan's progress is still not enough."

Real anxiety appeared on Instructor Wu's face.

"Less than half an hour remains until the Comprehension Assessment ends."

Suddenly, a prompt sounded through the space of the third trial.

At that moment, Jin Lian glanced toward Ye Fan.

"I've already won. He has only just touched the threshold of Entry, while I'm already advancing toward Minor Accomplishment."

Jin Lian was very confident.

"Less than half an hour? Hah, it's time to use Enlightenment Points."

"System, add 3 Enlightenment Points to the Peerless Overlord Spear."

In an instant.

Ye Fan felt as though he had entered a realm both profound and mysterious.

The points in his cultivation that had just been somewhat obscure became smooth as Dove chocolate in an instant.

And his mastery of the Peerless Overlord Spear rose at the speed of a rocket.

Entry (10%)...

Minor Accomplishment (30%)...

Major Accomplishment (70%)...

Perfection (90%)!

Martial Arts Mastery: Tier 1 Spear Technique (99%)

His spear art proficiency and Martial Arts Mastery both rose rapidly.

Outside, the few observers gradually discovered Ye Fan's transformation...
