"The changes in my body are truly peculiar; the gap between Apprentice level 9 and Planetary level is indeed significant."

Fang Yi stood up, sensing the transformations within his body.

Then, with a thought.

A panel popped up before his eyes.

[Combat Power]

Life Level: Planetary level 2 / Spiritual Force: Planetary level 4.

[Amplitude]

Force Output: 10.3 / Telekinesis: 35

[Laws/Domain]?

[Heavy Pupil]: (Left) Growth Progress—15%

(Right) Growth Progress—10%

["?" Unlock Progress—50%]

The panel before him had also changed; the base punch force, speed, and reaction stats from Apprentice level 9 had now been converted into the Life Level indicator.

Furthermore, new categories for Amplitude and Laws/Domain had been added.

Fang Yi was more concerned with the fact that the unlock progress for the question mark had reached 50%, a significant increase this time.

"I didn't expect to reach Planetary level 2 directly? The boost brought by the awakening of the Heavy Pupil seems even more terrifying than before."

After marveling for a moment.

He rose and left the depths of the cave.

Relying on the planetary power within his body, Fang Yi was able to break free from gravity and achieve flight.

This was his first time truly flying without the aid of external objects.

Fang Yi's figure shot out of the cave like a meteor, soaring into the sky.

"Exhilarating!"

Fang Yi hovered above the clouds, taking in the vast, rolling mountain ranges at a single glance.

The analytical range of his left Heavy Pupil suddenly expanded to over 50 kilometers; in his eyes, all things ceased to exist, replaced only by lines crisscrossing and curving in every direction.

Every blade of grass, every tree, the heavens, the earth, and all living creatures were captured within his vision.

"No need to breathe, flying at will; without using any other means of enhancement, my flight speed relying solely on magnetic fields has already reached about 1,900 meters per second."

Fang Yi conducted a few more tests.

If he used all his means, his speed reached a terrifying range of 3,800 meters per second!

"At this speed, I'm afraid I've already surpassed some level 4 or 5 martial artists, though that's only natural. After all, even when I was at Apprentice level 9, my speed was already top-tier."

Fang Yi was clear about his own strength and the influence of the Heavy Pupil.

"Time to find some King Rank monsters to practice with."

Since he had already reached Planetary level 2, Fang Yi naturally wanted to find some opponents to spar with and gauge his current overall strength.

"Whoosh—!"

The Black God Set immediately covered his entire body, and Fang Yi's pupils flowed with a mysterious purple light that spread across his frame.

Now.

The divine light of Creation could also cover his entire body 100%, and could even be fully integrated into his War Halberd, or his Flying Sword, as well as the 12 Flying Needles within the Flying Sword.

Moreover, all his abilities had undergone a qualitative leap.

Above the dense forest, bursts of sonic booms echoed.

A large number of common forest monsters, such as apes, frogs, and snakes, all looked up, tracking the afterimage and the source of the sound.

In their eyes.

They only saw a streak of purple-black light flash past.

The next second.

18 Flying Needles flickered like silver light, instantly piercing through countless monsters in the vicinity!

By the time they reacted, they had already been pierced by the silver needles, leaving them no room to resist. Fang Yi wove through the dense forest, searching for monsters of Lord Rank and above.

All monsters at the Beast General level or below were dealt with by the Flying Needles.

Some of the faster-reacting monsters had already fled in all directions.

A few high-level Beast Generals hurriedly burrowed into the ground to inform the Lord Rank monsters, who were currently sleeping and resting, about the attack by the human War God.

The Lord Rank Poison Dart Frog King immediately displayed signs of rage, and just as it prepared to leave its cave to go out and slaughter, However, upon realizing that the one attacking them was a War God clad in black-purple battle armor, face covered, and wielding a War Halberd.

The Poison Arrow Frog King.

The more it thought about it, the more it felt like that... human War God Fang Yi, who constantly hunted down monster hordes with brutal and incredibly bloody methods?!

Fear grew within its heart.

They were no match for this human War God; after all, the opponent had even killed those of King Rank.

Just as it was contemplating a way to escape.

It felt the surrounding rock walls shaking violently, as if some immense force was constantly striking the perimeter.

Countless fragments of stone fell.

This Lord suddenly felt a surge of terror.

"Bang!"

An arm suddenly shattered the rock, violently grabbing the high-level Lord Poison Arrow Frog King hiding deep underground.

"It's only this month, and you're already hibernating?"

Fang Yi's calm yet highly oppressive voice echoed throughout the cave.

The next moment.

The Poison Arrow Frog King was instantly yanked by its left leg with terrifying force, its smooth, highly toxic Poison Sac-filled body scraping repeatedly against the surrounding walls.

As a beam of light entered its vision.

The Poison Dart Frog King was pulled directly out of the cave by Fang Yi and tossed into the air.

"Croak!"

The Poison Dart Frog King flipped its body violently, then looked at Fang Yi and immediately spat out its pink tongue, which was coated in saliva.

The speed of its tongue ejection was extremely fast, already exceeding the speed of sound several times over.

If an ordinary War God were hit by this strike, they would undoubtedly suffer significant internal injuries.

But in front of Fang Yi, this resistance was like a toddler playing around.

Four Flying Needles in the vicinity immediately pierced the tip of its tongue, dragging it to one side. Intense pain surged from the tip of its tongue, causing the Poison Dart Frog King to let out a sharp "croak."

The Poison Dart Frog King never expected Fang Yi's reaction to be so fast.

This human was too terrifying!

It was definitely no match for him.

If it wanted to survive, the only option was to become a servant to the human.

It was just about to beg Fang Yi to spare its life, as being a human's servant was better than death.

But Fang Yi turned a deaf ear.

He spun the War Halberd with one hand, then his body shot forward like a cannonball, arriving in front of the abdomen of the falling Poison Dart Frog King in the blink of an eye.

He unleashed the first form of Heavy Wave.

The War Halberd slashed across the abdomen of the Poison Dart Frog King at a speed invisible to the naked eye!

Instantly.

The Poison Dart Frog King felt an indescribable pain spreading through its abdomen, while a sense of nausea welled up in its heart.

It let out a violent "Croak!"

Its mouth sprayed a large amount of blood, and as its eyes darted to its abdomen, it saw that an X-shaped wound had been carved into it.

The monster organs inside its abdomen had already been shattered by the layers of reverberating force, spilling out along with the flowing blood!

With just this one strike, Fang Yi didn't even glance at the Poison Dart Frog King, flying off in another direction to search for other Lord monsters.

A few seconds later.

The Poison Dart Frog King finally plummeted from the high altitude and hit the ground.

Its body made a "thud" upon impact, its limbs twitching from nerve impulses, and it took several minutes before it stopped moving entirely.

Its eyes lost their luster; it was completely dead.

Looking out from this position, the surroundings were littered with a large number of monster corpses, and the entire dense forest was permeated with the scent of death...

Fang Yi subsequently searched for a few more high-level Lords, all of whom were defeated in a single move.

These high-level Lords had absolutely no room to resist.

This was an absolute crushing of strength.

"This won't do. Lord Rank monsters aren't enough; they used to be able to trade a few blows with me, but now they basically can't even withstand a single strike."

"I'll have to find some King Rank monsters to test my skills..."

Fang Yi checked the map on his wrist device; a hundred kilometers away, there was a large lake named "Ai," which was sure to have a significant number of monsters.

Thinking of this, Fang Yi immediately set off.

"I haven't fought against water-type monsters yet. Now that I've reached the Planetary level, I no longer need to breathe, so this is the perfect chance to explore the depths."

In the distance.

The calm, ripple-free surface of the lake reflected the blue sky and the vast mountain ranges.

Fang Yi's figure flickered above, accompanied by a series of sonic booms. After confirming his position, he plunged into the water.

"BOOM!"

A massive spray of water erupted into the sky.

Protected by the Black God Set and the Creation Divine Light Armor, and given his controlled entry speed, the impact of hitting the water caused Fang Yi no harm.

The lake water was bone-chillingly cold.

Upon entering, visibility was extremely low, and the surroundings were deep and devoid of light.

Without the aid of lighting equipment, many martial artists would only be able to see objects within half a meter of themselves upon entering this lake.

Fang Yi's Heavy Pupil in his left eye pulsed, and the Power of Analysis immediately scanned the surroundings. The moment the world suddenly brightened, he saw...

Hundreds of water-type monsters were already lurking all around him!

The lowest were High-level Beast Generals, and the highest were High-level Lords.

The hundreds of monsters seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and in the next instant, they all attacked simultaneously—holding nothing back, intent on a swift kill!

Fang Yi's name and appearance had long since spread across the entire Australia Continent, and the water-type monsters were no exception.

Elite Training Camp.

Many students noticed that several new entries had been added to the instructional videos.

When these students clicked on the titles out of curiosity, they were left speechless.

<Combat Footage: Fighting a King Rank Monster — Fang Yi>

<Combat Analysis: Fighting a King Rank Monster — Fang Yi>

Although many students knew that Fang Yi had killed King Rank monsters, seeing the actual combat footage and the detailed process was still incredibly shocking.

As soon as the combat video was released, many people immediately began watching and studying it.

Even some instructors at the Elite Training Camp were quite curious, logging onto the website the moment they had any free time.

"King Rank monsters are so huge..."

"Instructor Fang Yi is actually a Psychic Master? How did I not know that?"

"No way, many students knew. How are you the only one who didn't? Fang Yi's Flying Needle control is amazing; he can control over a dozen at once."

"Flying Needles are easier to control than Flying Blades, but being able to control that many already puts him ahead of many Psychic Masters."

As everyone discussed this, such combat videos had already spread to the military regions, the Alliance, the Thunder Dojo, and other major martial artist factions.

After all, human experience in fighting King Rank monsters was extremely valuable.

There was no need to deliberately hide this, and even before it was released, many high-level figures had already discussed with the Limit regarding including this video to teach other martial artists.

Now.

With August approaching, it was the time for all students in the training camp to head out for adventures.

Therefore, many students were training even harder while watching various useful combat instructional videos.

Blade Technique Training Room.

Many students practicing their blade techniques hurriedly stopped, as a giant screen on the side allowed them to log into the website to view the lessons.

"The combat video is out!"

"Hmm, what video?"

"The combat video of Instructor Fang Yi against a King Rank monster. It's officially posted on the teaching page now."

Luo Feng was training when he suddenly heard other senior brothers discussing it. Upon hearing the words "Fang Yi" and "King Rank monster," he immediately stopped his blade movements.

"Senior brother, what's going on?"

Luo Feng asked as well.

"The video of the King Rank monster that Instructor Fang Yi killed earlier has been released. Luo Feng, stop training for a moment; learning from this experience is more important."

Luo Feng's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"Alright."
