Chapters [131-132]

Chapter 131. Who Doesn't Have A First Time

/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~

Three hours later, Lu Ze slowly opened his eyes, and a red light flashed in his eyes.

He opened his hands and watched the flame flow and change. It became very tame, but it contained violent chi. He smiled with satisfaction.

His fire god art improved quite a little!

Perhaps, his mastery of the fire god art was growing deeper and deeper. His learning duration was also becoming shorter and shorter.

The first time, he spent almost an entire night.

Now, he finished in three hours.

He rubbed his head and did some planning.

He couldn't improve his wind god art for now since he just finished learning the fire god art. His strength god art is currently quadrupled. That's pretty much the limit his body could handle.

Lu Ze pondered for a while. Then, he started using [red orbs] to increase his spirit force cultivation and improve his body.

Although Lu Ze was a spirit body now, it was just an attribute of the mortal evolution state. It didn't mean his spirit force cultivation level was at mortal evolution state.

He didn't really know his spirit force cultivation level as it wasn't the same as ordinary martial artists anymore. It should be at the early stages of abstruse martial state.

Using the [red orbs] would still strengthen his body. Lu Ze's body had a definite advantage over martial artists of the same cultivation level who hadn't practiced the body refinement cultivation method.

The stronger his body, the stronger his crystal form. The crystal body had pretty much become a god art. It had huge potential.

The [red orbs] dropped by the red lions contained terrifying power that flowed through Lu Ze's body. It strengthened him.

Lu Ze used chi attraction chant and pulled spirit chi from the void into his body.

…

When Lu Ze opened his eyes again, the star's light had passed through the atmosphere and shone on Lu Ze's body.

Lu Ze got up and stretched. His bones cracked, and he felt great.

He got out of his room and entered the bathroom, taking out his things from his storage ring to clean himself.

After that, Lu Ze sat in the living room and took out Alice's food to eat.

At this moment, the door opened and Ian came out.

Seeing Lu Ze, he smiled. "Good morning, Ze."

Lu Ze smiled. "Morning, Ian."

Ian glanced at the food and smelled the aroma. "I didn't expect Ze to be a spirit chef. It looks very good."

Lu Ze smiled. "Come, let's eat together."

Ian's eyes lit up. "Really? Thank you, Ze."

He turned quickly into the bathroom to clean himself.

The other two doors opened too. Ye Mu and Xavier came out.

Soon, their eyes lit up too when they saw the food on the table. They immediately charged over.

Lu Ze's mouth twitched. Green beams flashed in his eyes as he trapped the two on the spot. "Go clean yourselves first."

What a joke! How could he let them eat Alice's food like this?

As prodigies, Ye Mu and Xavier clearly felt unsatisfied with being trapped like this. They started to release their power.

Sword chi surged around Ye Mu's body. It was extremely sharp. Xavier's already dark skin turned completely black. It flashed with a metallic color. The two struggled.

Chi waves spread out from their release of power. Lu Ze smiled and used a green barrier to cover the two. All the waves were stopped by the wind and didn't do damage to the surroundings.

After struggling for a while, they looked at Lu Ze with shock.

Ye Mu opened his mouth and said, "Oh shit! Is Ze some new breed of maniac?? How is he that strong?!"

Xavier nodded his head fiercely.

Although they knew Lu Ze was dual god art, was dual god art this strong?

The wind that trapped them seemed gentle, but it didn't let them break free at all.

Plus, this guy had the power to stop the remaining waves?

What power was this?

Ye Mu was abstruse martial state level two power while Xavier was abstruse martial state level one. With their god arts, Ye Mu's combat power should be abstruse martial state level four. That was already the top of the class.

Yet, Lu Ze stopped them easily. He would probably be, at least, abstruse martial state level seven??

The two were shocked.

Abstruse martial state level seven was definitely the very top of the first year.

Lu Ze was this strong?

At this moment, Ian came out of the bathroom and saw the scene in the living room. He was shocked for a moment and shyly said, "Stop fighting, aren't we friends?"

Ye Mu: "…"

Xavier: "…"

When did this guy see that they were fighting?

It was clearly Lu Ze abusing them?!

Seeing Ian come out, Lu Ze released the wind god art and smiled at the two. "Hurry up and brush your teeth. Otherwise, I'm going to finish it with Ian. Don't ask for more!"

Ye Mu and Xavier glanced at each other and rushed to the toilet.

Spirit food was welcomed everywhere. With that, who would want to eat ordinary food?

Plus, it was beneficial for cultivation.

The two finished up quickly and charged out to eat.

Ye Mu's eyes lit up immediately as soon as he ate. He said with envy, "Lu Ze, you're too absurd. You're strong and even the spirit food you cook is this good?"

The other two nodded in agreement.

Lu Ze smiled. "This is made just for me by my cute junior schoolmate."

"I'll be honest, I only know how to eat!"

The three: "…"

Seeing how prideful Lu Ze was, the three wondered if they should clap for him since they were eating his food.

Then, Ye Mu's body stiffened. He looked at Lu Ze in contempt. "You actually have a junior schoolmate to cook spirit food for you! Why don't you explode!"

Then, he robbed half a piece of meat from Xavier.

…

The four finished breakfast and left the dorms, coming outside.

There were already some people gathered there. Most of them were chatting in groups of four.

As soon as Lu Ze came down, he heard a crisp voice, "Ze, here!"

The four turned around and saw a short-haired cute girl waving at Lu Ze.

She had three cute girls standing next to her.

One must admit that training martial arts had clear benefits. Guys and girls wouldn't be fat. Their figure was very good and so was their skin.

The girls pretty much all didn't look ugly.

When Ye Mu saw Lin Ling, his eyes lit up, and then, he smiled to Lu Ze, "Didn't you say Junior schoolmate? She's clearly the same year? Such a good looking girl… pft, I'm not jealous at all!"

Lu Ze answered, "This isn't that junior schoolmate of mine."

Clearly, Ye Mu thought Lin Ling was Alice.

Ye Mu's smile froze. He looked at Lu Ze with eerie eyes. "Lu Ze, what do you think of me? Do I look good?"

Lu Ze glanced at Ye Mu with confusion and said, "You know your talent without needing me to tell you? It's not bad?"

Ye Mu shook his head and said seriously, "I mean, how are my hooking up talents? Teach me how to get girls, Master!"

Lu Ze: "… piss off!"

He was still single, how could he teach people to get girls?

Lu Ze led the three over.

Lin Ling glanced at the three next to Lu Ze. Her eyes stopped on Ian's shy face briefly. Then, she poked out her tongue at Lu Ze and said with embarrassment, "Ze, I forgot to tell you there was a drill today."

Lu Ze smiled. "It's fine, it's just fighting. It's no big deal."

Lin Ling thought of how those poor blade demons were planted in the ground, and she couldn't resist nodding.

To him, it didn't seem like a big deal indeed.

Then, Lin Ling started to introduce her roommates to Lu Ze.

The female dormitory also had four people per room.

The small and timid golden-haired girl was called Jessica.

A rather extroverted sexy looking girl with an even better body than Lin Ling was called Tianyuan Qianhua.

A cold faced girl was called Xuan Yuqi.

All three girls were good looking. At least, Ye Mu secretly showed wolf-like eyes.

Clearly, the three girls were more interested in the girl-like and shy Ian than Ye Mu.

Especially Xuan Yuqi, she looked at Ye Mu with vigilance, but when she looked at Ian, her glance softened.

Ye Mu was in despair.

Ian didn't know what to do and blushed even more when the three girls flirted with him.

Only Xavier laughed dumbly.

As a tough guy, he wasn't interested in girls.

As for Lu Ze, he didn't know why the girls didn't talk to him. He felt he was quite handsome.

He didn't understand girls.

But Lu Ze wasn't a wolf like Ye Mu.

More and more people stood in the yard. The few hundred square meter yard was filled with people, from first to the fourth years.

At this moment, one golden and white light landed.

It was Nangong Jing and Luo Bingqing.

As soon as the two landed, everyone looked straight at them.

Nangong Jing said, "Old students know the rules. There's a drill every year, and you've been through it. Whether you get beaten or you beat people are up to you. New students…"

Nangong Jing looked at everyone and eventually stopped at Lu Ze. "Most people will probably get beat up, but that's fine. Who doesn't have a first time?"

Lu Ze: "…"

Lu Ze was speechless at Nangong Jing's way of comforting.

At least, the new students felt more nervous.

At least in the current stage, the academic party was like rabbits, and the practical party was like wolves.

Nangong Jing didn't mind their reactions. She was here to bring them to the battlefield, not to become their nanny.

"Okay, let's go. We'll go to the number one training ground."

Chapter 132. Just this level of skill?

/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~~~~/~

The number one training ground wasn't too close to the dorms. The students sat on the autopilot ship for nearly an hour before arriving at the destination.

The place looked like a gymnasium. The group crossed the big doors and arrived at a few hundred meters of length and width stage, which had an open roof. The surrounding was filled with seats.

Nangong Jing, Luo Bingqing took these few hundred elite class students in and then went on the high stand.

There were quite some people with rather high military badges sitting there.

It was an annual drill. Those who didn't have missions would usually come.

It was the battle of the young generation. They already bought their snacks just to watch this show.

Lu Ze found that these people started discussing amongst themselves.

Meanwhile, a few hundred young people were on the other side of the stage. There were both guys and girls.

However, they didn't wear casual clothes. They wore their military outfits and looked very cool.

These young people glanced at them with scorn and contempt.

Lin Ling glanced at them and said to Lu Ze, "Those are the prodigies of the prodigy barrack."

Lin Ling had a complicated expression on her face when she looked at the people on the opposite side.

A month ago, the prodigy barrack invited her to join.

But, she rejected them.

After all, she owed Lu Ze half a life.

Ye Mu said, "Pfft, the eyes of those people are really annoying."

A higher year student looked at Ye Mu after overhearing him and grinned. "You don't feel good, yeah? Go beat them later!"

Everyone was used to the annual fight.

At this moment, a voice that sounded scornful from the prodigy barracks was heard. "Yo, the rabbits have come to the other side. We'll be gentle with you later, don't worry!"

Then, laughter erupted.

"Oh shit!"

"The rabbit bastards on the other side. If I don't beat you to the point of crying this year, I'll write my name backward! Remember, my name is Kaka!"

The reaction was vehement, especially the second-year students. They probably got beat up hard last year.

Lu Ze wasn't interested in this mouth battle. He preferred to fight.

A serious-looking middle-aged man sitting at the top also wore a black and red-rimmed military outfit. His badge showed a golden sword and a star—he was a major general.

He was the highest commanding officer of this base, Major General Barry.

Unlike honorary major generals like Nangong Jing and Luo Bingqing, he was the commanding officer of the base.

Nangong Jing and Luo Bingqing sat to the left of Barry. Another young man and woman sat on the right of Barry. They also wore military outfit showing major general badges.

More than ten high-level officers sat behind the five. They were all brigadier generals.

Barry looked at the arguing youth and smiled. "They're very like you guys back in the days? Very lively."

Barry's words made Nangong Jing and the young man wearing military uniform quite embarrassed.

The two were even more talkative back in the days.

They caused quite some trouble.

The handsome military suit man grinned and looked at Nangong Jing with pride. "Nangong, you're probably going to lose this time. I have a very good little guy on my team. No one is a match for him this time."

Nangong Jing reclined on the chair and took out a bottle and drank before laughing. "Lin Kuang, you've never beaten me in a fight. Do you believe that your soldier is still no match for my student?"

Lin Kuang heard this, and his mouth twitched.

Nangong Jing was one year younger and a part of the academic party at that time. He was then part of the practical party. The two were the strongest of the parties back then, but in every drill, he lost to Nangong Jing.

He felt very annoyed.

Nangong Jing's words made him more annoyed. He said, " With just Ling alone? She's very weak. I told her to stay with me, but she chose you."

Lin Kuang's heart twitched when he spoke of this.

When she wanted to come to the battlefield, she was very obedient, but she ended up following this alcoholic.

His own little sister didn't follow him and went to Federal University instead.

Yet, she used her great-grandpa to suppress him.

She was probably a fake sister, right?

Nangong Jing laughed. "You will know."

Seeing Nangong Jing's confident look, Lin Kuang was confused, but since she said nothing more, he could only look at the expressionless Luo Bingqing. "Old Luo, is Nangong right?"

Luo Bingqing's eyes flashed, and he thought of the formation of blade demons. His mouth twitched, and he said plainly, "You will see."

Seeing this, Lin Kuang was even more confused. Was there really a prodigy like that in the first years?

Even the exquisite looking golden-haired girl in uniform glanced over at the elite class with curiosity.

At this moment, Barry smiled. "It is almost time. I'll speak first."

He got up and spoke, "Quiet down, I'll speak about the things to watch out for in this entrance test."

Barry's voice wasn't high, but it reached everyone's ears. Everyone quietened down as they looked at the middle-aged man.

Then, Barry began talking about mission distribution and things.

An hour or so later, Barry said, "That's all. Now, I'll be talking about the drill."

"The purpose of the drill is to understand the power of the new students and the improvement of the old students. The old students didn't do their entrance test at Xiaer system, so we need to know your battle power to arrange suitable missions for you."

This time, the drill is aimed at the prodigies of the prodigy barrack. It's a free challenge. The Federal University students need to go on stage once. Each battle will last for 3 minutes."

"You must cause lethal or debilitating injuries. If you sustain injuries, we have the best medical equipment, so don't worry."

"That's all, do well."

The Federal University students agreed in unison, "Yes, Sir!"

The battle power was a part of the entrance test. It would determine what special treatment you got once you got back to university.

Lin Kuang got up. He disappeared from the stand and appeared on the stage.

He glanced at the Federal University before stopping at Lin Ling. However, Lin Ling poked her tongue out at him, making his heart ache even more.

He looked away and said, "Okay, the drill will commence based on student number, starting from the fourth year. The others go back to your seats."

As soon as Lin Kuang said this, the practical party students sat down in unison.

Then, Lu Ze and the others sat down.

Only a mature senior schoolmate stood.

Then, he kicked and jumped onto the stage.

The senior schoolmate looked calmly at the prodigies from the practical party and said, "Liang Zongguang, aperture opening state primary stage. Who will come up?"

Aperture opening state?

Lu Ze's eyes narrowed.

This strong?

Aperture opening state was the strongest in Telun system.

Lin Ling's eyes flashed. She saw Lu Ze's shock and smiled. "Most of the senior schoolmates in fourth-year are aperture opening state."

"Why are they that strong?" Lu Ze asked in shock.

Lin Ling rolled her eyes. "Even the ordinary students of our school are at least the very top prodigy of a planet or even a solar system, alright? Plus, we're the elite class. Mortal evolution state breaking through to planetary state is the hardest thing."

Lu Ze felt she was right.

Just like him, he used two months to reach core martial state power from the martial warrior state.

That way, he seemed more absurd.

So he was that strong?

At this moment, a handsome clean looking man got up from the practical party and drifted to the stage.

The man grinned with a sliver of bloodthirst. "Yue Bo, aperture opening state primary stage, hehe, I'm here to beat you up."

Liang Zongguang raised a brow and sneered, "So cocky!"

Lin Kuang smiled. "Begin."

Then, he left the stage.

Liang Zongguang's eyes flashed. Strands of yellow light flashed over his body. A set of yellow armor attached to this body. It seemed to be his god art.

Yue Bo licked his lips and didn't do anything, but Liang Zongguang stepped on the ground.

Rumble!

An explosion sounded, and his body disappeared in yellow light. The high strength alloy ground was unscathed but drops of blood remained.

Ye Mu and the others bulged their eyes. "What did this person do??"

"It seems to be strings?" Lin Ling's eyes flashed with a glow.

Yue Bo was so much stronger than her. She could only vaguely see a faint trace of lines.

Lu Ze nodded. "They are indeed strings."

Oh my!

Is it you? Spidey man?

He could see translucent stings shooting out from Yue Bo's fingers at an extreme speed toward Liang Zongguang.

Perhaps, Liang Zongguang wasn't too serious and only reacted when the strings were near him. Thus, he was injured.

Lu Ze wondered if it was poisonous.

Meanwhile, Liang Zongguang felt the blood on his face, and his eyes became serious.

These god arts were rare. They were insidious and dangerous.

He often did missions to earn points, and thus, wouldn't be noobs like the new students.

That's why new students were more likely to get beaten up, but the older students were better.

Liang Zongguang wasn't going to fall for it easily again.

Cheers sounded even from the audience. For the soldiers, they were happier that their prodigies could win.

Yue Bo glanced at the wound on Liang Zongguang's face and sneered, "Just this level of skill?"

"You will soon know."

Yellow spirit light spurred from Liang Zongguang. A long spear appeared. The tip pointed and shot at Yue Bo.

Yue Bo's eyes went cold. Killing chi spilled out.

This was a sign of killing several aliens on the battlefield.

He opened his hands and made his ten long fingers dance.

The two clashed like this. The spear ray struck through the air, and the invisible lines severed the air, making sharp howls.

Their bodies disappeared from the stage. High-level spirit martial state and even low level abstruse martial state couldn't even keep up with their movements.

Ye Mu and the others were almost blind.

Lin Ling's eyes glowed, but her white forehead dripped with sweat.

Only Lu Ze could see their movements rather easily.

Ye Mu and the others looked at Lin Ling and Lu Ze with admiration.
