With one side waning as the other grew stronger!
About two hours later.
Lin Chen killed the last Third-Level Demon Beast!
[ Ding! Used God-Slaying Strike x254, proficiency +254, reached Novice Stage! ] [ 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 mouth lifted!
He thought that after becoming a Three-Star Martial Artist,
killing Third-Level Demon Beasts was effortless.
With the Demon Blade's boost,
even a Third-Level Demon Beast Tide was as easy as chopping vegetables!
With all those advantages combined,
God-Slaying Strike had gone from rookie level to Novice Stage!
The proficiency allocation rate was roughly one point per Third-Level Demon Beast!
As for Sky-Rending Slash, it was somewhat more difficult!
After Lin Chen made a full round of kills,
its proficiency allocation rate was only 0.2!
Still, although it was slower,
Lin Chen believed in the saying that strength could work miracles!

After choosing to renew,
an overwhelming, densely packed horde of Third-Level Demon Beasts appeared around him once more!
Lin Chen immediately took a step forward!
The Demon Blade in his hand instantly erupted with startling blade light!
With a casual swing, a golden blade light swept outward!
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 terrifying power was absolutely beyond comparison with a First-Level Combat Skill!
If he could fully master it,
it could definitely serve as a trump card!
Thinking this,
Lin Chen glanced at the monster horde surging toward him like locusts.
He swung his blade again and charged forward!
Along his path, Blood Flowers continuously bloomed in the air!
Compared to his previous slaughtering speed,
Lin Chen was faster and more proficient 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 chimes rang without end.
Yet Lin Chen seemed to be listening to beautiful notes.
The blade in his hand grew faster and faster!
The monster horde around him grew smaller and smaller!
He was immersed in this Slaughter Point Allocation!
Whenever the monster horde vanished,
he chose to continue the challenge!
Inside a villa,
Shen Yingqing lay sprawled across her bed, her face full of frustration.
She stared at the messages on her phone that had received no reply.
She felt rather upset!
Ever since Lin Chen had dropped out of school,
the two of them had not chatted face-to-face for a long time!
Thinking of the days when they had shared a desk,
Shen Yingqing could not help feeling nostalgic!
His Qi-Blood Value might have been pretty lousy,
but 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 hot and red.
She subconsciously touched it, then sighed.
"Is this what it feels like to have a crush on someone?"
"No matter whether he's ordinary or poor, I'll still like him, right?"
Shen Yingqing smiled faintly as she murmured to herself.
She thought that this feeling would continue forever!
Once she got into Martial Arts University,
she would definitely drag out that hateful guy who had been avoiding her herself!
Thinking of this,
Shen Yingqing opened Hu Xing'er's contact information and said,
"Dear Xiao Hu, don't forget to ride the wind and waves with this young lady tomorrow and claim the championship!"
"Understood!" Hu Xing'er replied!
Meanwhile, at home,
after Zhong Lili agreed,
Lin Jia smiled.
Clasping her little hands together, she said gratefully,
"Big Sister Lili, my brother works so hard. I don't want to affect his rest time..."
"I'll have to trouble you tomorrow. I'll repay you in the future..."
Zhong Lili nodded nervously!
What the hell was this?
The brother was hiding the fact that he was a Martial Artist and a billionaire from his sister!
The sister was hiding the fact that she was entering a competition from her brother because she did not want to disturb his work!
Feeling conflicted, Zhong Lili was somewhat depressed.
Looking at the innocent Lin Jia before her,
she had nearly wanted to tell her the truth.
But remembering Lin Chen's instructions,
Zhong Lili could only force a smile and agree!
It's just a school competition, isn't it?
It's nothing serious!
Inside Room 5201.
[ Ding! Used Sky-Rending Slash x500, proficiency +100, reached Novice Stage! ]
Hearing the notification,
Lin Chen put down the Demon Blade in his hand!
After nine hours of frenzied training,
he had finally trained Sky-Rending Slash to Novice Stage!
Its Novice Stage power was nearly five times that of Mad Demon Slash at perfection!
The vastly different power of those Combat Skills
filled Lin Chen's heart with wild joy!
For some reason,
he felt like he could even fight a Fifth-Level Demon Beast one-on-one!
But that was only an idea for now.
Lin Chen did not intend to put it into practice immediately!
Having spent two million on nine hours of frenzied training,
he only wanted to go home and restore his strength!
Thinking this,
Lin Chen skillfully checked out, paid the bill, and left.
It was already three in the morning.
There were still three hours until dawn!
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!
With Gale Shadowstep at major mastery, his speed had surged!
A trip home that usually took thirty minutes
only took him five minutes.
After returning home,
the villa was completely silent.
Without making a sound, Lin Chen entered the quiet room.
He took out a grill and charcoal.
Then he took out a Demon Beast thigh, sliced it, marinated it, and smoked it on the grill!
Then he drizzled on barbecue sauce.
Soul Sauce...
He did it all in one smooth motion, his skilled movements almost heartbreaking to watch.
Ravenous, Lin Chen impatiently picked up some lettuce, wrapped it around the meat, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Fragrant, spicy, refreshing, rich without being greasy—it was a heavenly delicacy!
He took out a bottle of ice-cold beer and gulped down a mouthful!
It felt incredible!
Lin Chen, treating his midnight snack as breakfast, found his appetite greatly stimulated.
Before long, another hundred jin of Fourth-Level Demon Beast barbecue had gone into his stomach.
That feeling of fullness made him drowsy!
After such high-intensity training, his mental strength naturally needed recovery as well!
Half asleep,
Lin Chen put away the grill to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, then fell straight into bed!
Huff, huff, huff!
He slept until dawn.
When Lin Chen opened his eyes, he found that it was already ten in the morning!
His sister had probably been in class for an hour by now!
Normally, he would have already gone out of the city to hunt monsters!
Thinking this,
Lin Chen shook his head slightly and prepared to wash up before leaving the city.
But the moment he stood up, the phone in his pocket fell out!
The screen lit up, and one message after another came into view!
"Lin Chen! The Friendship Sparring Tournament is tomorrow, did you know?" Shen Yingqing!
"Lin Chen! I'm competing 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 Friendship Sparring Tournament!
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 guy was still nowhere to be found at the station.
A trace of disappointment showed in his eyes!
"Damn! Why do I kind of miss him after just one day?"
"What a sin! What a sin! I'm a workhorse! Back to work! Back to work!"
