Xiao Yang suddenly had a feeling that his spear technique could be performed even better!
Without the slightest hesitation, he followed the feeling in his heart.
The somewhat rigid basic spear techniques seemed to come alive in Xiao Yang's hands.
He fluidly executed all kinds of basic movements.
He felt that even the way he exerted force had improved.
Previously, when he thrust out with his spear, Xiao Yang would leave himself wide open for an instant.
But now, he had no such concern at all.
The transitions between every one of his movements were extremely smooth.
Moreover, as he wielded the Spear Bamboo, the various openings in his defense gradually began to disappear.
When Chen Jian had sparred with Xiao Yang before, he had still been able to suppress Xiao Yang despite having only one arm.
And he had not used any Force-Exertion Secret Art, relying solely on the most basic blade techniques.
It should be known that, a few days before the Combat Assessment, Xiao Yang's strength had already reached six or seven thousand kilograms, bringing him very close to the Junior Warlord level.
At that time, the gap in strength between Chen Jian and Xiao Yang had not been particularly great.
Yet Xiao Yang had been beaten back by Chen Jian, who had only one arm.
At this moment, Xiao Yang felt that even if his strength were a little weaker, he could still contend with Chen Jian using basic spear techniques without losing.
Just like that, as Xiao Yang continued practicing his spear techniques, evening arrived.
As before, he stopped to rest for a while in the afternoon and ate a grain of Level 1 Rice.
This had already become Xiao Yang's habit.
After all, everything in the game tasted good.
Xiao Yang would not get tired of eating it no matter how much he ate.
Just as Xiao Yang was about to take a break and eat another grain of rice for dinner, the doorbell rang.
Only after storing the Spear Bamboo in the game inventory did he head upstairs to answer the door.
Standing outside was an unfamiliar man.
However, Xiao Yang could vaguely sense a fierce, menacing aura from him.
He guessed that this was a Martial Warrior who had been through countless battles.
Upon seeing Xiao Yang, the man smiled and said,
"Are you Mr. Xiao Yang?"
"This is the secret manual you purchased. Please sign for it."
As he spoke, he lifted a sealed alloy briefcase horizontally before Xiao Yang.
At his words, curiosity flashed through Xiao Yang's eyes.
This should be the World Annihilation manual he had purchased at noon.
He pressed his finger against the alloy briefcase.
"Beep! Fingerprint verification successful."
An electronic synthesized voice sounded, and the alloy briefcase automatically opened.
Inside was a book about one centimeter thick, along with two discs.
Two large words were written on the book—World Annihilation!
"Mr. Xiao Yang, please take a look and confirm whether this is the secret manual you purchased. If it is, please sign here."
As the man spoke, there was a trace of envy in his eyes as he looked at Xiao Yang.
This was World Annihilation!
Ordinary Martial Warriors simply could not afford it!
Even the First Layer cost one hundred million Huaxia Currency!
And that was already half price!
Xiao Yang nodded and said,
"That's right. This is what I purchased."
After Xiao Yang signed for the package, the man continued,
"According to the rules, I need to explain the precautions regarding the purchase of secret manuals."
"The copyright of a secret manual belongs to its creator. The copyright holder of the World Annihilation secret manual is Hall Master Hong!"
"The purchaser only has the right to learn it, not the right to pass it on."
"You may not copy, privately sell, or teach this secret manual."
"Once you violate these rules, you will be jointly hunted down by the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall, Thunder Dojo, HR Alliance, and the military forces of the five major nations!"
Xiao Yang nodded. He already knew all of this.
After the inspection was complete, the man left.
Xiao Yang, meanwhile, eagerly carried the book and discs down to the underground training room.
He impatiently opened the thick book.
Inside were the cultivation methods for World-Destroying, First Layer, as well as some insights.
Besides that, there was also a matching Guidance Technique and movement technique for World Annihilation.
It could be said that purchasing a set of World Annihilation gave him a Force-Exertion Secret Art, a Guidance Technique, and a movement technique.
Buying three secret arts for one hundred million was practically a bloo—
Alright, Xiao Yang still felt it was a bit of a loss.
He took a look and saw that World Annihilation was divided into six layers in total.
Each layer he cultivated would allow him to unleash one additional strand of Dark Force in battle.
Each strand of Dark Force possessed only ninety percent of his own strength.
Furthermore, the attack he himself unleashed would also possess only ninety percent of his own strength.
In other words, mastering the First Layer could raise his force exertion to 1.8 times.
The Second Layer was 2.7 times.
The Third Layer was 3.6 times.
The Fourth Layer was 4.5 times.
The Fifth Layer was 5.4 times.
The Sixth Layer was 6.3 times.
After completing World-Destroying, First Layer, his force exertion would only reach 1.8 times.
Yet the First Layer alone cost one hundred million Huaxia Currency, even at half price.
Meanwhile, at the same half price and for the same one hundred million, he could buy the first three layers of Ninefold Thunder Blade.
After mastering the first three layers of Ninefold Thunder Blade, his force exertion could reach 2.8 times!
The difference was a full multiplier!
Xiao Yang could not help sighing. Why had the original owner of this body not practiced blade techniques?!
But now that things had come this far, he could only cultivate World Annihilation first.
At least he had the Spear Bamboo, didn't he?
Xiao Yang directly began cultivating according to the methods in the secret manual.
Each layer of World Annihilation also had matching spear techniques.
Every layer contained twenty-four spear forms.
These spear techniques were also used to assist in cultivating World Annihilation.
Xiao Yang watched the teachings on the discs and in the book while eating Level 1 Rice.
After finishing it, he directly took out the Spear Bamboo and began cultivating.
The next day, after Xiao Yang got up and ate Level 1 Rice, he prepared to continue practicing World Annihilation.
In just one night, Xiao Yang had learned all twenty-four spear forms that came with World Annihilation.
At his current speed, he felt that he might not even need half a month to master World-Destroying, First Layer.
When the time came, he would also need to prepare for a trip to the Wilderness Area to train and earn money to buy the subsequent secret manuals.
Of course, he could also accumulate some practical combat experience along the way.
He was bound to experience real combat in the future.
Therefore, he had to adapt to it in advance.
And he also had to earn money to buy the later World Annihilation manuals.
Just as Xiao Yang took out the Spear Bamboo and prepared to begin practicing World Annihilation's spear techniques, the doorbell upstairs rang.
He put the Spear Bamboo he had taken out back into the system space.
When Xiao Yang went upstairs and opened the door, he found Chen Jian and Wang Ming standing outside.
"Uncle Chen, Chief Instructor, why are you here?"
Xiao Yang looked at the two of them curiously.
Chen Jian did not beat around the bush and spoke directly.
"Earlier, the supervisor asked us to help you find a Warlord squad so you could join them and gain some experience."
"Old Wang and I discussed it and recommended you to the squad led by my former captain."
"We didn't tell you yesterday because the matter had not yet been finalized."
"Now my former captain has agreed, and I'm planning to take you to meet his current squad."
Xiao Yang did not refuse. He directly followed Wang Ming and Chen Jian toward the Ultimate Club.
After all, he truly had no experience heading into the Wilderness Area at present. Temporarily joining a Martial Warrior squad was also a good choice.
