Song Jun's voice echoed in the spacious training room.

"With the talent you've shown so far, if you can keep up this momentum."

"I might be able to prepare a great opportunity for you."

Song Jun's words carried an inexplicable weight.

"How about it?"

"Are you interested in making a bet with me?"

Who was Song Jun?

He was a genuine Martial Master Perfection Expert!

His Blood Qi Intensity exceeded a thousand!

No matter which city he was in, he was a prominent figure!

Now!

Song Jun seemed to be extending an olive branch to him!

Jiang Hao's expression remained calm. He knew that Song Jun had been paying attention to him since the day his stance training reached mastery.

However, he hadn't pointed it out.

Being noticed by such a mentor was a tremendous stroke of luck for him.

Of course, Jiang Hao had never thought of deliberately showing off.

He had his own pace.

As long as he followed the steps and improved steadily, that was enough.

"Mentor."

Jiang Hao nodded slightly, his demeanor neither humble nor arrogant.

"What is this great opportunity you mentioned?"

Song Jun didn't explain to Jiang Hao upon hearing this. Instead, he smiled.

"I can't tell you yet."

"I can only tell you that this opportunity is enough to change your future martial path."

"You'll know when the time comes."

Jiang Hao fell silent for a moment. He gripped the alloy spear in his hand, its cold touch clearing his mind.

"How do you want to bet?"

"Very simple."

Seeing him agree, Song Jun's admiration deepened.

"First."

"You must successfully be promoted to the Key Class during the Key Class Assessment seven days from now."

"Second."

"Starting from today!"

"Within one month, your Blood Qi Intensity must break through to 12!"

"What?"

Even with Jiang Hao's steady temperament, his expression couldn't help but falter upon hearing that number.

A Blood Qi Intensity of 12!

In one month!

He quickly calculated in his mind.

Being promoted to the Key Class was already his set goal. At his current pace, it was no pressure at all.

As for breaking through from 9.12 to 12 Blood Qi Intensity within one month.

That was a gap of nearly 2.9 in Blood Qi.

If it were before, this would be a pipe dream.

But now...

A Medium-grade Nutrient Solution, and practicing the Stance Training once, could increase it by 0.05!

Eight times a day!

0.4 Blood Qi Intensity!

And as the Stance Training Proficiency increased, it could continue to increase later!

Within one month!

Reaching a Blood Qi Intensity of 12 seemed... impossible!

The only constraint was money!

Medium-grade Nutrient Solution was too expensive.

But something that even a Martial Master Level expert like Song Jun called a "great opportunity."

Its value was probably immeasurable!

Moreover, once he was promoted to the Key Class, the school's resource supply would also catch up, greatly alleviating his financial pressure.

This bet!

He had a high chance of winning!

"Okay."

Jiang Hao thought about this, then raised his head and nodded heavily, meeting Song Jun's gaze.

"Mentor."

"I accept this wager."

"Hahahaha! Good!"

Song Jun let out a hearty laugh upon hearing this!

"Young people should have this drive!"

"Jiang Hao, perform well, don't disappoint me!"

Song Jun stepped forward and patted Jiang Hao's shoulder.

"From today onwards, if you have any problems with your cultivation, you can come ask me anytime."

After speaking.

Song Jun took out a Silver Metal Card from his pocket.

"Take this."

"Consider it a little advance investment from me."

"A gift."

Jiang Hao's expression shifted slightly as he took the card.

If you can't find the book by its title, try searching by the author, perhaps the title has changed!

Due to the requests of many readers, the VIP Member ad-free function is now available.

Click to view.

He looked down.

This was not a bank card.

Engraved on the card was only a string of incredibly complex, shimmering data code.

The moment he saw this pattern!

Jiang Hao's expression finally changed!

His heart trembled violently!

He suddenly looked up at Song Jun again!

Because this kind of code, this kind of card!

He had only seen pictures of it on the Alliance Martial Arts Forum!

This is...

Martial Arts Code!

A... Secret Key used to download and unlock a genuine martial skill on the Alliance Martial Arts Terminal!

Song Jun had actually given him a martial skill directly!

Song Jun looked at Jiang Hao's shocked expression and smiled with satisfaction.

"Cultivate well."

"I look forward to your performance in the Key Class Assessment."

After speaking, Song Jun put his hands behind his back and turned to leave the Training Room.

Jiang Hao stood in place, feeling that the thin metal card in his hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds!

Martial skills!

The value of every martial skill was terrifyingly high!

Even the most basic Ranked Martial Skill started at least at five hundred thousand Human Alliance Coins!

Better ones could even be worth millions, or even tens of millions!

Like Lin Qiu's Shadowless Blade, its public market price was three million Human Alliance Coins!

Martial skills!

For the Jiang Hao of the past, this was simply a legendary item, a luxury he wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Who would have thought!

Now, this very thing had landed in his hands, so fresh and vibrant!

Jiang Hao smiled.

As expected, having strength felt this good!

Jiang Hao suppressed the excitement in his heart and, with anticipation, brought up his Personal Terminal to scan the Martial Arts Code card!

"Beep!"

"Martial Arts Code detected..."

"Decoding successful!"

"A spear technique, download has begun..."

"Download complete."

After the martial art downloaded!

Jiang Hao immediately clicked on the martial art.

The spear technique's name was: [Tidal Wave Spear Technique]!

Jiang Hao quickly browsed the characteristics of this spear technique.

One spear strike, power not yet exhausted, a second spear strike arrives, power stacks!

Each spear strike heavier than the last!

This was the core of the Tidal Wave Spear Technique!

The description stated!

If one could cultivate this spear technique to the Perfection Realm.

They could stack nine layers of strength in an instant!

Nine Waves combined into one!

At that time, with the body of a Martial Practitioner (Blood Qi 30), one could even challenge an Elite Martial Practitioner (Blood Qi 40)!

"Hiss!"

Jiang Hao gasped in disbelief!

Martial Practitioner challenging an Elite Martial Practitioner?

There's a whole major realm separating them!

This clearly shows how precious the Tidal Wave Spear Technique is!

"This spear technique martial skill is probably worth millions, maybe even tens of millions of Alliance Coins!"

Song Jun's gift is truly too generous!

Even though he said that.

Jiang Hao's body was still honest, accepting Song Jun's weighty "First Grand Gift." He immediately checked the Cultivation Diagram and Force Application Method for the Tidal Wave Spear Technique on his terminal.

Then, Jiang Hao seized the time and began practicing in the Training Room!

"Starting Stance, Qi Sinks to Dantian..."

"First Wave, Force Pierces Spear Body..."

Jiang Hao held his Alloy Spear, trying again and again.

Unfortunately!

The difficulty of this martial skill far exceeded his imagination.

That method of Strength Stacking was a completely new domain for him.

By the time the Training Room's Closing Bell rang.

Jiang Hao still hadn't managed to perform the First Wave perfectly even once!

Walking on the road home.

The night wind was a bit chilly!

But Jiang Hao's heart was burning. He craved time even more now, wishing he could go home immediately and continue cultivating!

"Just in case."

"Before the Key Class Assessment, I must be able to use this martial skill!"

"At the very least!"

"I need to be able to stack One Layer of Strength!"

"This will greatly enhance my combat power. Not only that, but the Enemy Engagement Moves are also more practical than the Basic Spear Technique. Although the Great Dao is simple, without reaching that realm, martial skills offer a complete crushing advantage!"
