After leaving the apartment.
Lin Chen ran all the way to the Martial Artist Training Ground!
A trip that normally took twenty minutes took him only five!
He booked Room 5201 at the front desk for three hours, then entered!
He immediately cranked the Hell-Grade Beast Horde to the maximum!
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x12, Proficiency +1.2! ]
[ Ding! Used Gale Shadowstep x2, Proficiency +0.2! ]
[ Ding! Used Mad Demon Slash x4, Proficiency +0.4! ]
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x41, Proficiency +4.1! ]
Inside Room 5201!
Disciplined Lin Chen transformed into a steel-bodied beast of a man, moving through the beast horde at high speed with nothing but his physical body!
Every Monster he touched along the way was instantly torn to pieces!
Meanwhile, in the training ground's control room.
Xiaoyuer stared at Room 5201, which had lit up again.
Her face was utterly numb!
Does this guy have something wrong with his head?
I already hinted at it so tactfully, didn't I?
Why did he come back again?
Does bullying First-Level Demon Beasts actually give him some kind of thrill?
Xiaoyuer sighed, feeling like she was on the verge of tears!
Especially when Room 5201 was renewed again!
She was truly speechless!
Inside Room 5201.
[ Ding! Used Mad Demon Slash x3254, Proficiency +325.4! ]
[ Ding! Used Gale Shadowstep x452, Proficiency +45.2! ]
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x5852, Proficiency +585.2, reached Entry Level! ]
Hearing that Wrathful Vajra had reached the Novice Stage.
Lin Chen felt an explosive rush of exhilaration!
This defensive Combat Skill is brutal—so violent!
It relies entirely on the power of the physical body to go head-to-head with Monsters!
With my strength as a Two-Star Martial Artist, I'm completely crushing them!
Gale Shadowstep, Mad Demon Slash, and Wrathful Vajra!
Lin Chen felt that he could slaughter Second-Level Demon Beasts with ease now!
He might even be able to fight Third-Level Demon Beasts!
With that thought, he opened his status panel:
[ Name: Lin Chen! ] [ Age: 18! ] [ Specialty: 18 cm! ] [ Realm: Two-Star Martial Artist! ] [ Qi-Blood Value: 725/1500! ] [ Combat Skills: Mad Demon Slash! (major mastery) Gale Shadowstep! (Minor Mastery) Wrathful Vajra (Entry Level!) (Novice Stage, Minor Mastery, major mastery, perfection!) ]
His Qi-Blood Value had surged from 601 to 725!
There was still some distance to the 1,500 Qi-Blood Value required for a Three-Star Martial Artist.
But Lin Chen believed that with Wrathful Vajra.
That gap would soon be closed!
He had to stay disciplined!
Renew, renew!
Putting away the panel, Lin Chen immediately chose to renew!
At once, a vast horde of First-Level Demon Beasts swept toward him again!
Lin Chen, whose Wrathful Vajra had reached the Novice Stage, grinned!
Then he activated Gale Shadowstep and charged forward at high speed!
Like a locomotive, he instantly smashed through every obstacle in his path!
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x1, Proficiency +0.1! ]
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x14, Proficiency +1.4! ]
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x16, Proficiency +1.6! ]
[ Ding! Used Wrathful Vajra x25, Proficiency +2.5! ]
[ Ding! Used Gale Shadowstep x45, Proficiency +4.5! ]
An hour later.
Lin Chen walked out of the room, refreshed and invigorated.
Spending forty thousand to train Wrathful Vajra to the Novice Stage had been more than worth it!
He glanced at the front desk, then skillfully settled the bill and left!
Not long after he departed.
Xiaoyuer arrived at Room 5201.
After opening the door, she carefully examined the interior.
Yet she found nothing unusual!
So why was this person so obsessed with Room 5201?
Driven by curiosity, Xiaoyuer took out a Black Gold Room Card!
Only three people in the Martial Artist Training Ground possessed this room card!
One was the training ground's owner, one was the president of the Warrior Association, and the last was her!
The breathtakingly beautiful Xiaoyuer glanced into the room, a trace of hesitation in her eyes.
The Martial Artist Training Ground strictly prohibited unauthorized viewing of Martial Artists' training recordings!
But to satisfy her curiosity.
Xiaoyuer ultimately decided to take a secret look!
She inserted the card and selected playback!
The door closed.
What came into view was Lin Chen, transformed into a Wrathful Vajra, charging recklessly through the beast horde!
Xiaoyuer watched for a while but found no clue.
In her eyes, this person was merely someone with too much free time, here to bully weak opponents!
But when the replay after the renewal appeared.
Xiaoyuer was dumbfounded!
Because she could clearly sense that this guy had grown stronger!
For example, when he first used the Combat Skill Wrathful Vajra, his movements had still been somewhat stiff!
But when he used it the second time, it was as though he had trained it for several months!
How was that possible!
Xiaoyuer rubbed her eyes. After confirming again and again that it was indeed Wrathful Vajra, her mouth slowly fell open!
A normal Martial Artist would need at least three months to learn the defensive Combat Skill Wrathful Vajra to the Novice Stage!
But this guy had forcibly raised it from a Wrathful Vajra rookie to the Novice Stage in just a few hours!
She could still distinguish the enormous difference between those two proficiency levels!
Could he have been putting on an act?
The incredulous Xiaoyuer shook her head slightly.
Then replayed the earlier training records once more.
One look was all it took to leave her stunned!
Whether it was Mad Demon Slash or Gale Shadowstep!
Lin Chen had reached Novice Stage proficiency from complete rookie status at an absurdly exaggerated speed!
Could this person be... an Awakened?
In Xiaoyuer's understanding!
Martial Artists were divided into ordinary Martial Artists, genius Martial Artists, and Awakened!
Genius Martial Artists were powerful, but still understandable!
But Awakened were practically freakish monsters!
Their awakened abilities could help them rapidly increase their strength in an extremely short time!
Whenever such a person appeared at any Martial Dao Base, they would inevitably become the target of fierce recruitment!
Thinking of this.
Xiaoyuer gritted her teeth and checked the room user's information!
But only a single character appeared as the name!
Since the Martial Artist Training Ground did not require real-name registration.
Many people used aliases!
"Chen... No, I have to call Grandpa!"
Gritting her teeth, Xiaoyuer hurriedly left the room and returned to her office.
After dialing a number.
A familiar, doting voice came from the other end:
"Good granddaughter, what is it? Why are you calling Grandpa so early in the morning? Did you miss me?"
"Old man, stop flattering yourself!" Xiaoyuer said seriously.
"Something happened here. Come take a look!"
"Isn't your second uncle there?" The voice on the other end turned tense!
"He's useless," Xiaoyuer said through gritted teeth. "Anyway, I want to see you here this morning!"
"Alright..."
After leaving the Martial Artist Training Ground.
Lin Chen had no idea that footage of his training had been exposed.
Instead, as usual, he bought breakfast and went home.
After the light on the second floor came on.
Lin Chen smiled and said:
"You're awake? Come eat. I brought you soup dumplings today, your favorite!"
"Thanks, Brother..." Still bleary-eyed, Lin Jia rubbed her eyes, then went downstairs to wash up and eat.
Watching from the side, Lin Chen felt a wave of peace in his heart.
He glanced at the noodles on the table, then began slurping them down!
