Grade A Bone Aptitude

Ye An returned to his residence and stared at the square wooden box for a long time.

Ye An understood that if he could reach the Gathered Origin Realm before Shi Jian's lifespan ran out, it would be the best answer for Shi Jian.

Only when a martial artist reaches the Open Palace Realm can they complete a leap in their life level.

As for Hall Master Shi, there is no possibility of him advancing further. Over the years, the Sect has been searching for spiritual items to extend his lifespan, but such items are too rare and they have never been found.

Ye An is currently only at the Mid Qi Condensation, so it's simply unrealistic for heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can prolong life.

There was only one thing Ye An could do.

Increase your strength as quickly as possible, break through to the Gathering Essence while Shi Jian can still see, and uphold the reputation of the Black Tortoise Hall.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ye An was ready. He took out the Centennial Cangwu Fruit from the wooden box, and a pale golden halo flowed slightly in the dim room.

The Cangwu Spirit Fruit lay peacefully inside, its pale golden skin gleaming with an almost translucent luster under the candlelight.

Without hesitation, Ye An put the spirit fruit into his mouth.

The flesh melts in your mouth, and upon entering your stomach, it seems to burst into a burst of golden light.

Immediately afterwards, Ye An felt a warm energy surge from his throat to his limbs and bones, then flow along his meridians, covering everything in its path with a light golden luster. At this moment, Ye An was as if he had been coated with a brand new golden coat.

The energy started out warm, then quickly rose, turning from warm to scalding hot, and then transformed into a burning pain that permeated every corner of Ye An's body.

Ye An endured the stinging pain, channeling the energy from the Cangwu Spirit Fruit into his Dantian, and then cleansing his Root Bone.

Ye An tensed up, the True Essence in his meridians colliding, merging, and recombining violently with the pale golden medicinal power.

Ye An felt the golden light permeating his bones, and a tingling, stinging pleasure emanated from deep within his marrow.

The feeling was as if something was being replaced from the inside out.

Immediately afterwards, a layer of pale golden mist seeped from the surface of his skin, making the entire courtyard glow slightly.

During the process of Root Bone and evolving, the impurities expelled from the body were forced out and transformed into a pale golden mist.

The golden mist grew thicker and thicker, enveloping Ye An completely, making him look like a sculpture being recast.

The speed of True Essence circulation has become much faster. The path that originally took three breaths to complete can now Penetration in two breaths, or even faster!

The burning sensation inside my body gradually subsided, leaving behind an unprecedented sense of clarity.

Ye An slowly lowered his shoulders, looked down at his hands, and tried to circulate the Black Tortoise Sea-Suppressing Art.

The True Essence traveled through the meridians, changing from a speed that could only travel on the official road to a speed that could be galloped along the official road!

The Root Bone (High-Grade B to the lower level (A)!

Grade A Bone Aptitude!

This is what Grade A Aptitude?!

Ye An silently repeated this to himself several times; this thing that was once so far away was now in his hands.

A martial artist who possesses Grade A Bone Aptitude can be considered a true martial arts prodigy.

Now, Ye An has already reached the threshold of this talent, plus his own Golden Finger.

The road ahead will be smoother.

The night breeze weaved through the shadows of the trees on Cangwu Mountain, carrying the warmth of late May as it brushed against Ye An's face.

Ye An once again felt the speed of the flow of True Essence within his body. He was no longer the boy who needed to practice for several hours longer than others every day to catch up with them.

Half a month later, the Four Halls Grand Competition were held as scheduled.

The arena was packed with people, with disciples from the Four Symbols Sect flocking in and completely surrounding the Martial Practice Ground.

The air was thick with anticipation and excitement. Everyone felt that today's competition was almost a foregone conclusion, but those who enjoyed watching the spectacle still showed up.

The Azure Dragon Hall and the Black Tortoise Hall never intended to fight each other from the beginning.

Ultimately, this competition was just a personal show by Shen Jingfeng and Jiang Tingxue.

The other two halls were merely supporting roles.

Shen Jingfeng walked out from the direction of the White Tiger Hall with a calm and composed gait, sword in hand, his gaze fixed on the arena.

Without any unnecessary movements, he steadily walked onto the ring.

Jiang Tingxue walked out from the direction of the Vermilion Bird Hall at almost the same time, her posture upright, her expression calm, and her eyes also filled with determination to win.

The two stood on opposite sides of the ring, exchanged a glance, and then said nothing.

This arena was smashed to pieces during the last match between Ye An and Song Qinglin. When the Sect rebuilt it afterward, they added a lot of materials and completely replaced the structure.

It was said that no matter how much you fought within the Qi Condensation Realm, it wouldn't break. Now it seems that wasn't an exaggeration. Shen Jingfeng's Sword Qi and Jiang Tingxue's finger strikes exploded on the platform countless times, but hardly any pebbles were even thrown up.

Han Feng stood below the stage, his gaze fixed on Shen Jingfeng, his eyes sharp.

Zhu Qingli stood on the other side, her gaze also fixed on Jiang Tingxue, a deep expectation hidden in her eyes.

The competition started quickly and ended quickly.

Just when everyone thought Shen Jingfeng of the White Tiger Hall would be the victor, a sudden change occurred!

Jiang Tingxue unleashed a Vermilion Bird Heaven-Burning Finger – A Prairie Fire that Scorched the Sky!

A True Essence prism, already bearing the form of Vermilion Bird, exploded between the two, the scorching shockwave forcing Shen Jingfeng back half a step.

Taking advantage of this opening, Jiang Tingxue's next finger landed on the spine of Shen Jingfeng's sword, causing the entire blade to shift, and then another finger stopped three inches in front of his throat.

This scene drew gasps of surprise from the onlookers.

"The winner... is actually Jiang Tingxue, the Chief Disciple of the Vermilion Bird Hall?!"

Seeing Jiang Tingxue's victory, Zhu Qingli thought to herself that she was not disappointed!

The disciple he personally trained defeated Shen Jingfeng with absolute strength!

Her disciple, Jiang Tingxue, is the strongest disciple of the Four Symbols Sect in this generation!

Zhu Qingli has no regrets.
