Ultimately, the Master Leads You In, Cultivation is Up to the Individual.

After all, the master led you through the door; cultivation depended on the individual. A thought flashed through Lin Tian's mind.

Right now, he needed more resources.

Only in that way could the speed at which he grew stronger become even faster!

The previous ten Blood-Qi Pills had only been enough for him to experience ten days of accelerated cultivation.

If he could have fifteen days a month—

Or even thirty days, all with this kind of accelerated cultivation progress—

Then he would definitely be able to advance to Transformation Force at the fastest possible speed.

But where was he supposed to find these resources?

Clearly, for Lin Tian himself, The resources he needed at this stage were no small sum.

Yet he had no channels to find them.

Even the ten Blood-Qi Pills he now had each month had come from Bao Tianhua.

Only after seeing his situation had Bao Tianhua given them to him.

Of course, in truth, Lin Tian himself had also thought of where he should go to find these resources.

Lin Tian's gaze turned toward the direction where his master, Zhao, was.

As long as he exposed his cultivation, Then he would definitely be noticed by the other party.

A Transformation Force-level expert would surely have abundant resources in his hands.

It was just that doing so would require him to expose his cultivation.

For him, that risk was too great.

After all, aside from anything else, his cultivation progress was far too fast right now.

If he exposed it in a rush, it would probably draw others' suspicion.

And this matter concerned his Fate Grid.

His Fate Grid was the very foundation on which he stood in this world.

So he absolutely could not let anyone else discover it.

And this was precisely the reason he hid his cultivation.

Of course, this was only one of the reasons.

Aside from hiding away any trace of his Fate Grid, he also wanted to conceal his sharp edge.

Born at the very bottom, Lin Tian understood very clearly what the consequences were when a person's limelight burned too brightly.

Lie low, survive—only then could he keep growing stronger!

After all, he was a poor child with not the slightest background behind him.

Showing his edge was no different from courting death.

But now, with the appearance of those Water Bandits, Lin Tian knew that perhaps he could already reveal a bit of his sharp edge.

After all, if he wanted to protect his family and become stronger, Then he had to reveal his talent and value.

Originally, in Lin Tian's plan, He had intended to wait another month or two, that was, before the Martial Examination, before revealing his Dark Force cultivation.

But now, he had to move it up a little...

As he thought this, the fists in Lin Tian's hands swung even faster.

A day passed very quickly.

Today, Lin Tian did not stay behind ahead of time to give himself extra practice. Instead, like the rest of the disciples, he left on schedule.

When the Outer Academy disciples saw this scene, They all turned their heads again and again to look.

A vast wave of curiosity once more flashed through their eyes.

Although Lin Tian had previously spent a period of time leaving the Martial Academy on schedule together with them, At that time, it had been before he broke through to Bright Force.

After Lin Tian broke through to Bright Force and entered the Inner Academy, Lin Tian had once again returned to that diligent appearance of practicing every day.

Of course, after entering the Inner Academy, he had not arrived as early in the mornings.

But he had never once been absent at night.

He had practically always been the last to leave, as unshakable as thunder striking on schedule.

Especially as the Martial Examination drew near.

The disciples of the Inner Academy almost all consciously added extra training for themselves.

Just like now.

In the Inner Academy, aside from Lin Tian alone...

The rest of the Inner Academy disciples were all still resting inside the Inner Academy!

What was going on today?

As the person who worked the hardest every day...

Today, he was actually the only Inner Academy disciple to walk out of the Martial Academy?

However, everyone did not think much of it.

After all, who did not have moments when they wanted to let themselves rest a little?

Perhaps he had been too hardworking during this period.

So he wanted to give himself a short holiday?

In short.

The Outer Academy disciples merely glanced at Lin Tian once, then paid him no more attention.

But next...

They found it somewhat strange.

Because for six days in a row, Lin Tian left together with the Outer Academy disciples?

The Inner Academy disciples watched Lin Tian leave before them.

Lin Qian and the others kept their faces perfectly calm.

But inside, their hearts were as clear as a bright mirror.

Zhou Ya, in particular, believed she had seen through the source of Lin Tian's strange behavior these past few days.

Naturally, it was Xiao Tian, who had broken through to Dark Force recently.

Compared to how, after Lin Tian had broken through to Bright Force before...

He had believed that with hard work, he could overcome everything, even surpass the limits of innate aptitude.

He had even believed that as long as he worked hard enough, he could stand shoulder to shoulder with a genius like Xiao Tian.

In short, after relying on his own luck and fluking his way into Bright Force, he no longer knew how high the heavens were or how deep the earth was.

In his heart, he had even possessed that confidence of a heart higher than the sky.

Heh, but unfortunately, after seeing Xiao Tian break through to Dark Force...

That pitiful confidence of his had been shattered directly!

Now, naturally, his true form was exposed.

He had returned to the posture that a piece of trash like him ought to have.

Presumably, he had finally realized how poor his innate aptitude was.

And consciously understood that there was no hope of breaking through in this lifetime.

Heh, this was right. Trash should look like trash.

Even if he worked this hard, it was nothing but wasted effort!

Creak!

At that moment, Zhao Cang also walked out from the Side Courtyard.

As the Martial Examination drew near...

And after Xiao Tian broke through to Dark Force...

He naturally had to spend some thought on these Inner Academy disciples.

After all, even if they were only at Bright Force, perhaps they could still bring him some surprises in this final stretch of time.

Only, as Zhao Cang's gaze shifted to a certain corner...

A trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

He left again today?

This was already the sixth day, right?

It seemed... Lin Tian really had given up as well.

But thinking about it, that made sense.

With aptitude like that, he had likely already sensed during this period that the progress of his cultivation was slow.

If you added in the shock from Xiao Tian's earlier breakthrough into Dark Force...

Back when they were in the Outer Academy, the matter of Lin Tian taking Xiao Tian as a target for comparison...

He had naturally heard about it as well.

Looking at it now, it seemed that had also been true.

Sigh, what a pity. With that level of aptitude, the other party's future was destined to be limited.

But that sort of will truly disappointed him.

Was he just giving up outright like this?

To give up like this after suffering a little blow—truly...

At this moment, it could be said that as long as Lin Tian had stayed, Zhao Cang would not have felt so disappointed.

After all, if he had stayed, even if he could not compete...

At the very least, it would have proved that he still had that bit of heart.

Of course, he naturally would not pay too much attention to Lin Tian.

Whether he left or stayed, he would not interfere much.

After Zhao Cang walked out the door, he went straight before the group of disciples.

Then he said, "Has anyone touched the threshold of Dark Force?"

Hearing this, Lin Qian and Qian Wang, who were standing to the side, both stiffened.

Clearly, they understood very well what their master's words represented at this moment.

Naturally, it was to decide who would receive the final nomination slot.

And as Zhao Cang looked at the silent disciples below, he finally shook his head.

So be it. After all, not everyone was a genius like Xiao Tian. He had still asked for too much.

Afterward, he spoke again. "With the Martial Examination drawing near, I imagine you all know what I meant by what I just said."

"But since no one has been able to break through, then it will be allocated according to the strength of your abilities."
