Breakthrough! Extreme Strength Realm!

"Bright Yellow Grade!"

Lin Yi was overjoyed.

A Bright Yellow Grade talent—this was a talent found in one in ten million.

Not just in Guangling Commandery, but even in the vaster Dongshan Prefecture, this marked him as a top-tier genius.

After all, though Dongshan Prefecture's population exceeded three hundred million, that count included everyone from infants to the elderly.

If only the young were considered, then one in ten million was absolutely the highest level of talent.

"I just wonder what type of talent this is? Will it help me grasp Extreme Strength or comprehend martial skills?"

Lin Yi pondered, and on the Starry Sky scroll, that yellow star swiftly flew out from the bottom of the scroll, merging into Lin Yi's brow.

"Congratulations, Dao Master. This evolution of talent is successful. Dao Master has obtained the Bright Yellow Grade talent—Body Control."

[Talent: Body Control]

[Grade: Bright Yellow]

[Description: You are born with an unparalleled ability to control your body. Everything within your flesh can be commanded, mobilized, and perfectly governed at your will.]

"Body Control?"

"This talent is practically tailor-made for comprehending Extreme Strength! My luck..."

Staring at the description of this talent, Lin Yi's eyes widened, filled with shock and delight.

What was called Extreme Strength, at its core, pursued a perfect mastery over the body.

And this "Body Control" talent naturally granted an extremely strong command over the physique.

Thus, someone with the "Body Control" talent was essentially born already set on the path to mastering the Extreme Strength realm.

With that, how could comprehending the Extreme Strength realm not be easy?

"Let's test it out!"

With a thought, Lin Yi immediately began cultivating in this martial training room of Guangling Martial Academy.

Then...

"Rustle!"

A streak of Saber Light bloomed within the training room. Lin Yi moved with the blade, like a nimble swimming dragon gliding and dancing through the air.

One move after another from the Bright Moon Saber Art, each variation, was executed by Lin Yi. Though it looked much the same as usual, there was now a unique rhythm to it.

It was as if his body and the long saber had merged more perfectly, more seamlessly, as if they were about to become one.

"So this is Body Control? Truly wonderful! Too wonderful!"

As he wielded the saber, Lin Yi felt the changes in his own body, a smile involuntarily spreading across his face:

"With this Body Control, my command over my physique is so much stronger."

"In my perception, every inch of flesh, every bone, even every drop of blood seems to have gained a spirit, all at my beck and call. Even the long saber in my hand easily fuses with my body."

"In this state, the difficulty of learning martial skills drops drastically. As for comprehending the Extreme Strength realm, which is directly tied to Body Control, calling it 'effortless' doesn't even begin to describe it."

Inside the martial training room, Lin Yi silently practiced the Bright Moon Saber Art. Before long, he was completely immersed, losing all sense of time passing outside, entering a state where self and world were forgotten.

In this special state, Lin Yi's understanding of the Extreme Strength realm deepened more and more.

On the Attribute Panel, the progress of Bright Moon Saber Art was also climbing rapidly.

32%.

33%.

34%.

35%.

And so, within the martial training room, Lin Yi's Martial Skill realm grew swiftly.

Almost every so often, the progress of Bright Moon Saber Art on the Attribute Panel would jump up again.

Finally—

"Cock-a-doodle-doo!"

The rooster's crow announced the dawn.

With a clear cockcrow from outside, Lin Yi, who had been immersed in saber practice inside Guangling Martial Academy's training room, finally awoke.

And the moment he woke, his Saber Light suddenly transformed.

"Whoosh!"

A terrifying Saber Light tore through the air, carving a brilliant white trail in the void. Though he used no great force, it seemed as if it could split the very sky itself.

"Extreme Strength—I've done it!"

Seeing this, Lin Yi froze for a moment, staring in disbelief at his right hand gripping the saber.

Extreme Strength! This was the Extreme Strength realm! A realm that even among fifth-rank experts, only a portion could master!

And a Fifth-Rank Martial Artist was a major figure even in Guangling Commandery, capable of supporting an entire large family on their own. Even within a top-tier clan like the Wang Family, such a person was an unquestionable high-level figure.

Take, for example, the Wang Family's Third Branch Master, Third Master Wang, who had previously gone to negotiate at Black Wind Stronghold. He was a Fifth-Rank Martial Artist. Leading only a few Sixth-Rank Martial Artists, he dared to directly confront the fierce and domineering Black Wind Stronghold to reason with them. Although he relied on the Wang Family's backing, this still showed just how powerful a Fifth-Rank Martial Artist was.

And now, his own realm had already surpassed some of these figures.

"Excellent!"

A smile spread across Lin Yi's face:

"Having comprehended the Extreme Strength Realm, becoming a Profound-grade Genius of the Purple Thistle Chamber of Commerce or other major powers and chambers is already a simple matter."

"Next, I just need to find an opportunity to display the Extreme Strength Realm, or I could hold back a bit longer and wait until my strength grows even more before aiming for the Earth-grade Genius level. Either option works."

"As for the Guangling Martial Academy's Entrance Examination, let alone third or second place, even first place is a sure thing for me."

The Extreme Strength Realm alone was enough to directly boost Lin Yi's base strength by an entire major realm, elevating him from Seventh Grade Mid Stage to Sixth Grade Mid Stage.

And after a night of practicing the Bright Moon Saber Art, although he hadn't broken through to the Great Perfection Realm, it had advanced from (Perfection, 32%) to (Perfection, 75%). His Skill Realm had surged greatly, already surpassing many Sixth-Rank peak Martial Artists.

Thus, the maximum power Lin Yi could unleash had now reached the Late Sixth Rank level.

At this level, even Wang Kai couldn't hold out for more than a few moves.

After all, the gap in Martial Cultivation grew larger as one advanced. At the Seventh Rank, an ordinary Seventh Rank Early Stage Martial Artist could still last ten to twenty moves against a Seventh Rank Late Stage opponent, and a stronger Seventh Rank Early Stage might even endure thirty to fifty moves.

But at the Sixth Rank, an ordinary Sixth Rank Early Stage couldn't even survive a single move against a Sixth Rank Late Stage.

As for Wang Kai, his strength was only slightly better than an ordinary Sixth Rank Early Stage, far from reaching the Sixth Rank Mid Stage level.

When they fought during the Entrance Examination, Lin Yi only needed to rely on the Bright Moon Saber Art's strong defensive power to withstand some of his attacks, then occasionally use the Extreme Strength Realm to burst out.

Fighting like this, Wang Kai would definitely be unable to take it! Then Lin Yi would win.

"Besides, there's still one day until the Entrance Examination starts. Apart from the Extreme Strength Realm, I also have the Tiger Tendon Leopard Blood Pill. My Martial Cultivation should be able to push forward a bit more."

"I'm not expecting to reach Seventh Grade Late Stage, but as long as I can advance some distance within Seventh Grade Mid Stage, it will still increase my strength."

Lin Yi's mind stirred. He then took out the black pill bottle from his bosom, pulled out the stopper, and poured out a blood-red pill about the size of a peanut. He swallowed it in one gulp.
