[Year 17: After many years of martial training, the pain grew lighter and lighter. You suddenly discovered that, without realizing it, your flesh, skin, tendons, bones, and blood had undergone tremendous changes.] [Year 22: You could no longer feel any pain at all. Instead, your whole body felt lighter, while your flesh, skin, tendons, bones, and blood were strengthened once more, as if you had been reborn. Your strength doubled!] [Year 24: Through your unceasing efforts, you could now effortlessly perform all eighteen forms of the Great Power Bear Demon Fist. The fist art had seeped into your bones, and every move was now entirely different! High-grade · Incomplete · Great Power Bear Demon Fist—Minor Mastery!]
His consciousness returned to reality.
Mo Chen abruptly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing like lightning as his essence, energy, and spirit surged in an instant.
Under the astonished gazes of Tantai Xiasang and Chen Xuanyin,
he suddenly sprang up from the ground and began practicing the Great Power Bear Demon Fist as if no one else were present.
"Demon Bear Emerges!"
"Eagle-Bear Fighting Spirit!"
"Great Power Bear Ram!"
"Bear Paw Like Cannon!"
The strength of a bear surpassed that of a tiger.
The strength of a demon bear could shatter mountains and crush stone!
Mo Chen had never seen a demon bear before, but he possessed an advantage others lacked: the deductions of the Martial Arts Grandmaster System.
It was a high-grade incomplete fist art he had never encountered before.
Yet at this very moment, it flowed smoothly from his hands, fierce and forceful enough to stir the wind.
All eighteen forms of the Great Power Bear Demon Fist unfolded through his movements.
It was as though he had always been intimately familiar with this fist art, unleashing power and transformations that made the heart tremble.
At this sight,
Tantai Xiasang was dumbfounded!
Chen Xuanyin was even more shocked, his eyes wide open!
"Impossible!"
The two cried out at the same time.
Mo Chen had nearly shattered their entire worldview!
Yet the facts stood right before them.
Watching Mo Chen throw his fists with incomparable might, like a demon bear raging in a gale, Tantai Xiasang and Chen Xuanyin could no longer remain calm.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief!
The Great Power Bear Demon Fist was originally a high-grade body-tempering art among the Martial Suppression Academy's inner sect techniques.
Both of them had practiced it.
Chen Xuanyin had even trained this incomplete fist art to Minor Mastery, so he was naturally very familiar with it.
Although Mo Chen's methods of exerting force still had flaws, every move had already captured the essence of the Great Power Bear Demon Fist.
With each strike, his flesh, skin, tendons, bones, and blood erupted in a unified burst.
What made this fist art so exceptional was that it could temper the entire body, eventually achieving the effect of rebirth.
Neither of them dared imagine that someone could reach Minor Mastery in such a difficult fist art after seeing it only once.
Was he even human?!
Tantai Xiasang and Chen Xuanyin met each other's eyes, both seeing the shock and disbelief in the other's gaze.
"Comprehension! Could he truly possess Saint-grade comprehension?!"
The two of them were certain of it.
Only inner sect disciples of the Martial Suppression Academy could learn the Great Power Bear Demon Fist.
Mo Chen was not an inner sect disciple of the Martial Suppression Academy, nor did he have the merits to exchange for it. There was no way he could have learned this fist art.
The reason Tantai Xiasang had Chen Xuanyin bring out this set of fist techniques was precisely to test Mo Chen.
Now, both of them had been stunned senseless and were beginning to doubt themselves.
"Minor Mastery in a single breath?!"
Chen Xuanyin himself had not noticed that his whole body was trembling with excitement.
There was no longer any contempt or mockery in the way he looked at Mo Chen. There was only the excitement of having found a precious jade.
The Martial Suppression Academy was originally the gathering place for geniuses throughout the entire Martial Suppression Office.
It was also the authoritative organization with the greatest military strength in the entire Martial Suppression Office.
Their goal was to protect the people and safeguard the peace and tranquility of the entire Martial Suppression Office.
That was why they were in desperate need of martial arts geniuses.
Only with people was there a future.
Only martial arts experts could suppress those evil heretics and demonic forces.
Now, they had discovered a martial arts genius as brilliant as Mo Chen in a small county town.
Chen Xuanyin could not contain his excitement at all.
He could practically foresee a bright future for the younger generation of the Martial Suppression Academy!
"Good, good, good! With him, Senior Sister's vision and goals are completely secure!"
Chen Xuanyin danced with excitement, his face full of delight as he looked at Mo Chen.
"You old fossils in the Elder Council, just wait! One Senior Sister isn't enough for you, is it? Then we'll add a Junior Brother!"
"In a few years, you bastards can all get the hell out of there! Our generation will take your seats in the Elder Council!"
Having finished the Great Power Bear Demon Fist, Mo Chen was breathing slightly heavily.
He stopped moving, the corner of his lips curling upward as he looked at Tantai Xiasang.
"Miss Tantai, what do you think? How is my comprehension?"
Tantai Xiasang wore an unusually dazed expression, staring at Mo Chen as though she were looking at a giant panda.
Her beautiful eyes were wide and round, and her exquisite, stunning face was filled with astonishment.
"Senior Sister!"
Seeing Tantai Xiasang spacing out, Chen Xuanyin could no longer suppress his joy and called out to remind her.
Tantai Xiasang came back to her senses, a blush suddenly rising on her face.
She nodded and forced herself to speak calmly. "Good! Very good!"
It was also her first time seeing comprehension this powerful.
Though her heart was already in turmoil, the dignified image of a Senior Sister would not allow her to reveal even a trace of joy.
"Only very good?"
Mo Chen asked curiously, "With comprehension like mine, can I directly become a true disciple?"
"Junior Brother Mo!"
Before Tantai Xiasang could answer, Chen Xuanyin beside her could wait no longer.
He broke into a grin, revealing sixteen gleaming white teeth as he ran over.
"Your comprehension surpasses ninety-nine percent of all disciples. I can't guarantee true discipleship, but becoming an inner sect disciple is absolutely certain!"
"This senior brother apologizes for what I said earlier. I was fucking blind, unable to recognize jade inlaid with gold, with a pair of dog eyes that deserved to be dug out!"
Natural talent and comprehension.
Comprehension ranked even above natural talent.
Because natural talent could be altered after birth, but comprehension could not be changed.
"You're overstating it, Senior Brother Chen."
Mo Chen was delighted. "Getting into the inner sect is fine too. I don't ask for much!"
As long as he could enter the Martial Suppression Academy, everything would be possible.
As for whether he became a true disciple, he had not particularly cared about it.
Of course, a higher starting point would make the road ahead easier.
If there was a chance, Mo Chen would still fight for it.
"Chen Xuanyin!"
Tantai Xiasang suddenly called out sternly.
Chen Xuanyin shuddered and turned around while forcibly suppressing his excitement.
"Senior Sister! What are your orders? Are we planning how to abolish the Elder Council?"
Tantai Xiasang's face darkened. Pointing east, she said, "Get out!"
"Right away!" Chen Xuanyin grinned and turned to run.
After taking a few steps, he did not forget to turn back and shout at Mo Chen, "Junior Brother Mo, once we reach the Prefectural City, I'll arrange fine wine and a grand feast to welcome you! Your senior brother has something to do, so I'll be leaving first!"
Tantai Xiasang's face was icy, her eyes brimming with killing intent.
Mo Chen blinked, somewhat surprised.
This Senior Brother Chen was quite an interesting person.
He had ambitions, dreams, courage, and strength. Most importantly...
he knew when to bend and when to stand firm, when to be soft and when to be tough!
Of course, Mo Chen could do all that too.
"Miss Tantai, is there anything else?"
After Chen Xuanyin left,
only Tantai Xiasang and Mo Chen remained.
Mo Chen turned to Tantai Xiasang, who wore a blue dress and possessed beauty beyond compare, and asked with a smile.
