The darkness within Visualization Room has not completely faded away, and the red-gold Spark is burning quietly deep in Xu Wuyi's dantian.

The consciousness sank into Sea of Consciousness, and the volume of Bronze Ancient Book was suspended quietly as if it had never changed.

[Martial arts: Hundred Refinements Furnace]

[Current state: Entry Level(15.3%)]

[Martial Arts Characteristics: Heart Fire (Elementary)]

[Evaluation: Blood and Qi rushes, Divine Intent first appears.]

Looking at the clear changes on the panel, Xu Wuyi's eyes flashed with satisfaction.

The improvement brought by igniting [Heart Fire] is huge, and the proficiency level jumps directly from 7.8% to 15.3%, which is almost worth his hard work in the previous month.

This kind of leap-forward progress is enough to prove that those 120 points are well worth the money spent.

And this is also the charm of high-level martial arts. The moment a bottleneck is broken through, it is often accompanied by a qualitative leap.

He could feel that the Blood and Qi in his body not only became more condensed and powerful, but also ran much faster. Even the [Soul Suppressor] characteristics of <Eight Directions Soul-Suppressing Spear> seemed to have become more handy due to the blending of spirit and Blood and Qi.

Xu Wuyi stood up and moved his muscles. The bones all over his body made a slight crisp sound, and every flexion and extension brought a surging sense of strength.

Enter Virtual Pod and check your own situation.

Life Energy Level has reached level 17.9. In less than a month, it has increased by 1.4 levels. The effect of high-level Body Tempering Method is evident.

Xu Wuyi took a breath and left Virtual Pod. After nearly a month of seclusion, the outside world must have undergone many changes.

Especially for Freshman Challenge, there are only the last three days left before the deadline. I don't know what the pattern on the rankings will look like.

When this thought came up, Xu Wuyi did not hesitate and raised his hand to activate the virtual light screen in the training room.

Light blue light and shadow spread out in front of him. He tapped his fingertips and directly connected to Star Martial Battle Net, bringing up the ranking interface of Freshman Challenge.

The moment the light screen loaded, a dense list of names and data jumped out. Xu Wuyi glanced straight at the top, and then was slightly startled.

[Freshman Challenge Leaderboard]

First place: Qin Rui (number of levels cleared: 6)

Second place: Zhao Qingwei (number of levels cleared: 5)

Third place: Shen Wei (number of levels cleared: 5)

Fourth place: Li Hao (number of levels cleared: 5)

Eighth place: Xu Zhi (number of levels cleared: 5)

Eleventh place: Xu Wuyi (number of levels cleared: 5)

Looking at the rankings on the light screen, Xu Wuyi raised his eyebrows. Instead of being disappointed at all, a hearty smile appeared on his face.

Dropped out of the top ten.

And he was pushed to the eleventh place.

What surprised him even more was that all the top ten players in the rankings had cleared the fifth level. Even Xu Zhi, who had been stuck on the third level, had successfully reached the eighth place, and the clearance time was more than ten seconds faster than him.

And the one at the top of the list is the Central Province number one pick Qin Rui mentioned by Xu Zhi.

Number of levels cleared: 6!

He actually got through the sixth floor!

Xu Wuyi's eyes stayed on Qin Rui's clearance time, which was 8 minutes and 42 seconds.

This time is not short. Obviously, Twin-Blade Mantis on the sixth floor also caused a lot of trouble for Qin Rui. However, being able to successfully clear the level at this stage is enough to prove how powerful Qin Rui is.

"Central Province No. 1 Scholar is truly worthy of his reputation." Xu Wuyi thought to himself.

He had personally experienced the horror of the sixth level before. The two Twin-Blade Mantiss had fast attack speeds and tacit coordination. Their attacks were so cunning and ruthless that they barely gave anyone a chance to breathe.

He had the [Furnace Boiling Blood] and [Soul Suppressor] characteristics at that time, but he couldn't survive for three minutes. Qin Rui can successfully pass the level, which must be unique.

However, it took him more than five minutes, which proved that he was not using a fast break method.

Xu Wuyi's eyes continued to scan down, and Zhao Qingwei still ranked second. The clearance time was 1 minute and 33 seconds, which was much faster than his original 2 minutes and 17 seconds. It was obvious that Mountain-Splitting White Ape had figured out the routine on the fifth floor, and his combat efficiency was greatly improved.

Shen Wei is ranked third, with a clearing time of 1 minute and 49 seconds. His <Seven Kill Saber> is overbearing in lethality. It does have a natural advantage against the physically powerful Star Beast like Mountain-Splitting White Ape.

The other names Xu Wuyi are a bit unfamiliar. They must be geniuses from other provinces. Now they have come to the school and participated in Freshman Challenge.

The competition in the entire ranking is much more intense than before he went into seclusion.

If you were someone else, seeing your former top spot being replaced or even falling out of the top ten, you might feel depressed and anxious, but Xu Wuyi only has hope in his heart.

Star Martial University Hidden dragons and crouching tigers, there are many masters in the same class. This is the environment he wants.

If no one can match you as soon as you enter college, you will lose the motivation to move forward.

Only in this fierce competition, being constantly spurred and chased, can we discover our own shortcomings more quickly and stimulate stronger potential.

"Qin Rui, Zhao Qingwei, Shen Wei----there are also these strange names," Xu Wuyi's fingertips lightly tapped the edge of the light screen, a sharp fighting spirit flashed in his eyes, "It seems that the last three days of Freshman Challenge will not be boring anymore."

He originally planned to challenge Twin-Blade Mantis on the sixth floor immediately after igniting [Heart Fire], but seeing the pattern on the rankings, he was not in a hurry.

Qin Rui has cleared the sixth level, which means that the difficulty of the sixth level is not insurmountable. He plans to take a look at the situation in the past month.

Just as Xu Wuyi was thinking, soft blue light gathered around him, and the virtual projection of Smart Brain Anna quietly emerged.

"Xu Wuyi, congratulations on your successful condensation [Heart Fire]." Anna's voice is still smooth and soft, with the unique indifference of Smart Brain.

"According to the monitoring of your cultivation status, all physical indicators are currently at the optimal level. The purity of Blood and Qi has increased by 23% compared with before the retreat, and the compatibility between mental power and Blood and Qi has reached 87%."

Xu Wuyi nodded. "Thank you for your hard work, Anna."

"This is my job." Anna nodded slightly and changed the topic.

"In addition, during the twenty-six days of your retreat, a total of seventeen visitors tried to contact you."

"Thirteen of them came to visit through the villa access control system, and four of them initiated communication requests through Star Martial Battle Net. All of them have followed the "No Disturbance During Retreat" command you set before, and I will respond on your behalf."

Xu Wuyi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that so many people would be looking for him during this period of seclusion.

"Who are they?" he asked.

"Among the visitors who came to visit, four of them are your old acquaintances." Anna called up a concise list and projected it next to the light screen, "Zeng Bonan, a classmate of Dongjiang Province, came to visit twice on August 10th and August 18th. The main reason is to exchange your cultivation experience with you and ask if you need help in exchanging cultivation resources."

"Shen Wei came to visit on August 15th. He was in a rather anxious mood. He seemed to want to discuss things with you again and share his achievements in clearing the fifth floor."

"Yu Peiling came to our door on August 20th, bringing a copy of Clear Heart Tea, a special product of Linjiang. I left a message wishing you success in your cultivation without too much disturbance."

"There is also a classmate Chu Shanhe who initiated communication requests through Battle Net in mid-August. Classmate Chu Shanhe inquired about your cultivation progress and also initiated an invitation for competition."
