The afternoon of July 10th.
In the training room, Xu Wuyi maintains the ninth form of <Hundred Refinements Furnace>, a static stance called [Furnace Fire Bone Forging].
His body was squatting slightly, his fists were clenched at his waist, his spine was as straight as a dragon, and his whole body seemed to be connected to the earth.
He had been in this position for more than half an hour, his whole body was already soaked with sweat, and his muscles were trembling slightly.
But his eyes were bright, his mind was empty, and all his thoughts were focused on the invisible "melting pot" in his body.
Blood and Qi is like lead and mercury, heavy and hot, circulating back and forth in a specific route. With each cycle, it seems as if microscopic impurities are being calcined and discharged.
Blood and Qi itself becomes more condensed, with a hint of burning characteristics.
Unknowingly, the Blood and Qi inside his body was flowing faster and faster, and the illusory "melting furnace" became clearer and clearer in Sea of Consciousness, and he could even "hear" the roar of the blazing furnace fire!
Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes.
At a certain moment, Xu Wuyi felt deep inside his body, as if some kind of shackles were suddenly broken away!
Boom!
A torrent of Blood and Qi that was far purer than usual erupted from the depths of the Dantian Qi sea, instantly penetrating several stagnant subtle Meridians, completing the construction of the last key cycle!
The whole body Blood and Qi is suddenly connected and integrated!
The "melting furnace" in his body seemed to be completely ignited, emitting a hum that only he could sense.
The scorching air waves spread out around him, evaporating the sweat accumulated on the floor into white vapor.
Xu Wuyi slowly stopped and let out a long breath.
This breath was hot, with a faint white color, and it sprayed out several feet away like steam before slowly dissipating in the air.
He couldn't wait to sink into Sea of Consciousness.
[Martial Dao Diligence Record], the text has been updated:
Martial arts: Hundred Refinements Furnace [Current level: Entry Level (0.1%)]
[Martial Arts Characteristics: Not turned on]
[Assessment: Blood and Qi has just begun, and the future is promising.]
Done!
<Hundred Refinements Furnace>, officially Entry Level!
The whole process went smoothly, and I didn't even feel the bottleneck. It was easier than when I broke through <Basic Body Tempering Method>Entry Level.
Xu Wuyi knows that this is the principle of accumulation and success.
Over the past few months, we have persisted in laying a solid foundation, and now is the time to reap the rewards.
But we cannot be complacent, because after "little hair", we need "thick accumulation", so that a cycle can be formed.
The foundation cannot be overemphasized. Only when the foundation is strong can it carry the tall buildings.
After a while, the door to the training room was pushed open.
Principal Zhang Qiming and teacher Wang Wenhai walked in together.
Seeing that although Xu Wuyi was covered in sweat, his eyes were bright and his breath was deep and thick, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes.
"It seems that we arrived at just the right time." Principal Zhang smiled on his face, "Is there another breakthrough?"
Xu Wuyi nodded.
After another burst of praise, Principal Zhang looked straight and said, "I came here today mainly because of your choice of university."
"Everyone from Three Great Universities has officially contacted us.
Wang Wenhai interface, with a hint of excitement in his tone. "Star Martial University, Black Stone Academy, Starry Sky Martial Institute, all have similar conditions, and we are willing to give you the highest S-level freshman scholarship!"
"S-level scholarship----" Xu Wuyi's eyes moved slightly.
This is the real benefit brought by Provincial Top Scholar, and also Three Great Universities's unstinting investment in the competition for top students.
Of course, it mainly depends on the strength shown by the candidates.
The top scorer in the martial arts examination in a small province may not be as well treated as the top ten in some large provinces.
"Star Martial University, it was Director Li from the Admissions Office who personally called me. His attitude was very sincere."
Principal Zhang said, "He promised that in addition to the S-level scholarship, he can also open up intermediate permissions for you in advance, allowing you to learn more high-level martial arts."
"The conditions for the Black Stone Academy and Starry Sky Martial Institute are basically the same." Wang Wenhai added, "You mainly consider their respective characteristics to make your choice."
Regarding the competition for College Entrance Examination's top students, "Three Great Universities" has a tacit understanding, and the scholarship conditions for each rating remain consistent.
This can avoid vicious competition and waste of resources.
As for the respective advantages of "Three Great Universities", Xu Wuyi has already understood this.
Starry Sky Martial Institute's star energy research technology is far ahead. Black Stone Academy is good at spiritual practice and has a large number of Xiantian martial artists. High-level experts abound, and Star Martial University----
Lots of support.
Well, Star Martial University is the only school among Three Great Universities that sets up regular scholarships, which are awarded according to the age ranking of students each semester.
Even though only the first 50% were distributed, it was still an astronomical sum.
After all, Star Martial University enrolls the largest number of students every year among Three Great Universities, with nearly 1,500 students in one class.
Black Stone and Starry Sky do not have this money. Apart from participating in some competitions to obtain bonuses, students can only rely on themselves.
For Xu Wuyi, there is actually no good choice at all. No matter how good the academic conditions of Black Stone and Starry Sky are, he cannot enjoy them without money.
Coupled with his previous experience in Battle Net, he already had a certain preference for Star Martial University.
"I'm going to Star Martial University." He said calmly.
When Principal Zhang and Wang Wenhai heard this, they both had smiles on their faces that said, "Sure enough, it's true."
This choice was also within their expectations.
Whether from the perspective of school style or future development, Star Martial University is more suitable for the current Xu Wuyi.
"Okay!" Principal Zhang nodded heavily, "I will reply to Director Li right now. Star Martial University---- is a good place. Once there, the sea and the sky are vast, and your stage will no longer be limited to Dongjiang province!"
Wang Wenhai also said with emotion, "When you get to college, that's when the real fight between dragons and tigers begins. Three Great Universities brings together the geniuses of all Federation. Don't feel pressure, but you must not relax."
"I understand." Xu Wuyi responded.
July 15th.
Xu Wuyi is still wearing the old school uniform and riding a bicycle into the campus.
What was different from the past was that he received countless scorching looks along the way.
"Look! It's senior Xu Wuyi!"
"Provincial Top Scholar!"
"I heard he is going to Star Martial University----"
--
The bicycle was parked in the shed under the teaching building. Xu Wuyi had just locked the bicycle when a familiar loud voice sounded from behind.
"A-Yi! This way!"
Xu Wuyi turned around and saw Zhou Heng waving his arms vigorously with a bright smile from the heart on his face.
He walked over quickly and Zhou Heng punched him lightly on the shoulder.
"Okay Provincial Top Scholar! Today is a big day. People from Three Great Universities and Seven Stars are here to deliver the notice in person! This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a battle." Zhou Heng chuckled.
"What are you doing here?" Xu Wuyi replied with a smile.
"Get the files, I'm going to report next week." Zhou Heng patted his shoulder, his tone full of emotion, "I didn't expect that you actually became Provincial Top Scholar, and even entered Star Martial. I have to tell people in the future that Provincial Top Scholar and I are roommates!"
