Sky-Rending Slash Reached Beginner Level! The Friendly Match Began!

As one side waned, the other waxed!

About two hours later.

Lin Chen killed the last Third-Level Demon Beast!

[ Ding! Used God-Slaying Strike x254. Proficiency +254. Reached beginner level! ]

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x100. Proficiency +20! ]

[ Congratulations on clearing the Third-Level Hell Demon Beast Tide... ]

Hearing the notification,

the corners of Lin Chen's lips curled up!

He thought that after becoming a Three-Star Martial Artist,

killing Third-Level Demon Beasts was effortless.

With the Demon Blade's boost,

even cutting through a tide of Third-Level Demon Beasts was like slicing melons and vegetables!

With all those advantages combined,

God-Slaying Strike had gone from novice to beginner level!

The proficiency gain rate was roughly one point for every Third-Level Demon Beast killed!

As for Sky-Rending Slash, it was somewhat more difficult!

After Lin Chen made a full round of kills,

its proficiency gain rate was only 0.2!

But although the progress was slower,

Lin Chen believed that brute force could work miracles!

[ Continue renewing... ]

After choosing to renew,

an overwhelming, densely packed horde of Third-Level Demon Beasts appeared around him once more!

Seeing this, Lin Chen immediately stepped forward!

The Demon Blade in his hand instantly erupted with a startling blade radiance!

With a casual swing, a streak of golden blade light swept out!

Sky-Rending Slash!

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x1. Proficiency +0.2! ]

In an instant, with one slash,

dozens of Third-Level Demon Beasts shattered before they could even react!

Such immense power was absolutely incomparable to a Level One combat skill!

If he could master it completely,

it could definitely serve as a trump card!

Thinking of this,

Lin Chen glanced at the demon beast horde charging at him like a swarm of locusts.

He swung his blade again and charged forward!

Everywhere he passed, blossoms of blood continuously burst into the air!

Compared to his previous killing speed,

Lin Chen was faster and more skilled this time!

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x1. Proficiency +0.2! ]

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x10. Proficiency +2! ]

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x20. Proficiency +4! ]

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x40. Proficiency +8! ]

The dinging sounds rang without end.

Yet Lin Chen seemed to be listening to beautiful notes.

The blade in his hand grew faster and faster!

The demon beast horde around him grew smaller and smaller!

He immersed himself in this slaughter and point gain!

Whenever the demon beast horde vanished,

he chose to continue the challenge!

Inside a villa,

Shen Yingqing lay sprawled on her bed with a gloomy expression.

Staring at the messages on her phone that had gone unanswered for so long,

she felt a little upset!

She thought that ever since Lin Chen had dropped out of school,

the two of them had not chatted face-to-face in a long time!

Thinking back to the days when they had shared a desk,

Shen Yingqing could not help feeling nostalgic!

She mused that although his Qi-Blood Value had been rather weak,

he really was handsome!

And not only was he handsome, his character was good too!

As she thought about it,

Shen Yingqing realized that her face had turned scorching red.

She subconsciously touched it with her hand, then sighed:

"Is this what it feels like to have a crush on someone?"

"No matter whether he is ordinary or poor, I will still like him, right?"

Muttering to herself, Shen Yingqing smiled faintly.

She thought that this affection would continue forever!

Once she entered a martial arts university,

she would definitely drag out that hateful guy who had been hiding from her herself!

Thinking of this,

Shen Yingqing opened Hu Xing'er's contact information and said:

"Dear Little Hu, don't forget to ride the wind and break the waves with me tomorrow as we seize the championship!"

"Understood!" Hu Xing'er replied!

Meanwhile, at home,

after Zhong Lili agreed, Lin Jia

revealed a smile.

Clasping her small hands, she said gratefully:

"Big Sister Lili, my brother works so hard. I don't want to disturb his rest time..."

"I'll have to trouble you tomorrow. I will repay you in the future..."

Zhong Lili nodded nervously!

What the hell was going on here!

The older brother was hiding from his younger sister that he was a martial artist and a billionaire!

The younger sister was hiding from her older brother that she was entering a competition because she did not want to disturb him at work!

Zhong Lili felt rather depressed by the conflict in her heart.

Looking at the innocent Lin Jia before her,

she had nearly wanted to tell her the truth.

But when she remembered Lin Chen's instructions,

Zhong Lili could only force a smile and agree!

Isn't it just a school competition?

It's no big deal!

Inside Room 5201.

[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x500. Proficiency +100. Reached beginner level! ]

Hearing the notification,

Lin Chen put down the Demon Blade in his hand!

After nine hours of frenzied training,

he had finally raised Sky-Rending Slash to beginner level!

Its beginner-level power was nearly five times that of Mad Demon Slash at mastery level!

The enormous gap in combat skill power

filled Lin Chen's heart with wild joy!

For some reason,

he felt that he could even solo a Fifth-Level Demon Beast!

But that was merely an idea for now.

Lin Chen did not plan to put it into practice immediately!

Having spent two million on nine hours of frenzied training,

he only wanted to return home and replenish his energy!

Thinking of this,

Lin Chen skillfully checked out, paid the bill, and left.

It was already three in the morning.

There were still three hours until daybreak!

Not a soul could be seen on the streets of Chuan City Martial Arts Base.

Even the sanitation workers had gone home to rest!

Walking down the street, Lin Chen sighed.

Then he sped up and headed home!

Having mastered Gale Shadowstep, his speed had soared!

A trip home that normally took thirty minutes

only took him five minutes.

When he got home,

the villa was utterly silent.

Without making any noise, Lin Chen entered the quiet room.

He took out a grill and charcoal.

Then he took out demon beast thigh meat, sliced it, marinated it, and smoked it over the grill!

Then he sprinkled barbecue sauce over it.

The soul sauce...

He completed everything in one smooth motion, so practiced that it made one's heart ache.

Famished, Lin Chen impatiently took some lettuce, wrapped it around the meat, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Fragrant, spicy, refreshing, rich without being greasy—a delicacy beyond compare!

He then took out a bottle of ice-cold beer and gulped down a mouthful!

This felt amazing!

Eating a late-night snack as breakfast, Lin Chen's appetite greatly increased.

Before long, another hundred jin of Fourth-Level Demon Beast barbecue disappeared into his stomach.

The feeling of fullness made him drowsy!

After such high-intensity training, his mental energy naturally needed to recover as well!

With sleepy eyes,

Lin Chen put away the grill to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, then fell straight asleep!

Huff, huff, huff!

He slept until daybreak.

When Lin Chen opened his eyes, he discovered it was already ten in the morning!

At this hour, his sister had probably already been in class for an hour!

Normally, he would have already left the city to hunt demon beasts too!

Thinking of this,

Lin Chen shook his head slightly and prepared to wash up before leaving the city.

But just as he got up, the phone in his pocket fell out!

The screen lit up, and message after message came into view!

"Lin Chen! The friendly match is tomorrow, did you know?" Shen Yingqing!

"Lin Chen! My match is today! Number 68! Remember to watch me! Cheer for me!" Shen Yingqing!

"Lin Chen! I'm a little nervous. What should I do? Even with a Qi-Blood Value of 298, I feel kind of weak..." Shen Yingqing!

Oh no!

The friendly sparring match!

Lin Chen had forgotten that Lin Jia was competing today!

Why hadn't that silly little sister reminded him?!

Feeling rather helpless, he hurried off to the competition venue!

At the city gate.

Old Zhang, who had run back and forth twice, blew out a smoke ring.

Seeing that the station still showed no sign of that guy,

a trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes!

"Damn! It's only been a day, so why do I kind of miss him?"

"Sinful! Sinful! I'm a corporate slave! Work! Work!"
