The 3-star bone frame was a rather low grade for outer inst.i.tute cadet. In the past century, a 3-star bone frame had never appeared in the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution. The most inferior cadet would have a 4-star bone frame.
But everyone didn't know that having the 3-star bone frame had really helped Li Fuchen12Li FuchenMain Protagonist significantly.
Li Fuchen's cultivation speed had reached a bottleneck after he cultivated the True Inferno Technique to the highest rank. For his next step, he would either have to change to an earth cla.s.s low-tier cultivation technique or to upgrade his bone frame. These were the only two methods to increase his speed of cultivation.
In comparison, the former method was much easier. But there would be a day when the earth cla.s.s low-tier cultivation technique would also reach its bottleneck. Only the bone frame would follow a pract.i.tioner for eternity.
With the perfect form of the Heaven Dipper Battle Imprint, the highest rank of the True Inferno Technique, and the 3-star bone frame, Li Fuchen's cultivation speed was faster by two times as compared to the time he was on the East Unicorn Continent. This was the Seven Color Continent and the cultivation environment was far superior to the East Unicorn Continent.
Although most of Li Fuchen's time was spent on the Green Sun Sword Intent, he was still able to advance his cultivation to the 9th level of Heaven Dipper Realm in just one month after enrollment.
"It seems like I have been a.s.signed to the grade A cla.s.s 7. It is time to go and have a look."
The outer inst.i.tute cla.s.ses were separated into two grades, the grade A and grade B. The grade A had seven cla.s.ses, while grade B had forty-three cla.s.ses.
The factor to decide if one would be sorted into the grade A cla.s.ses didn't depend on the cultivation and strength, it was mainly on the age and innate potential.
Luo Yan might not have a high cultivation level, but due to her young age, she was already a grade A cla.s.s 5 cadet before she knew Li Fuchen. There were plenty of elite cadets who were stronger than Luo Yan, but due to their age, they had only been a.s.signed to the grade B cla.s.ses.
Li Fuchen had already been a.s.signed to the grade A cla.s.s 7 for nearly a month but he had never attended a lecture for even a single time as he had been diligently cultivating the Green Sun Sword Intent.
In the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution, the teaching environment was very relaxed. They didn't mandate cadets to attend lectures and it was up to the cadets to manage their schedule.
Of course, everyone who enrolled in the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution had the first priority to obtain higher cla.s.sed manuals. Their second priority would be to obtain the teachings of the mentors. Cadets like Li Fuchen were rarely seen who had been skipping lectures for almost an entire month and secluding himself.
One would be able to improve even faster after getting guidance from the mentors.
In a short moment later, Li Fuchen arrived at the entrance of grade A cla.s.s 7.
Grade A cla.s.s 7 was a ma.s.sive courtyard and the layout of the interior was very simple. There was a single cla.s.sroom and a rather s.p.a.cious practice ground.
The grade A cla.s.s 7's mentor was currently giving a lecture in the cla.s.sroom. Li Fuchen's arrival had caused him to stop his lecture.
"You are Li Fuchen?"
Xu Chunhua frowned. The outer inst.i.tute only had two lectures a week and it was very minimal. He had never seen a cadet who didn't attend any lecture after the academic term had started for a month.
"Yes, Mentor." Li Fuchen nodded.
"Come in and take a seat then!"
Xu Chunhua might be discontented, but he didn't make things difficult for Li Fuchen.
It was the cadet's freedom to attend lectures or not. He didn't have the authority to bother and he didn't wish to bother either.
The cla.s.sroom only had 20 seats and each seat was separated far from each other. Apart from Li Fuchen, the other 19 grade A cla.s.s 7's cadets were all here. Right now, everyone was sizing Li Fuchen up with curious expressions.
"This person is Li Fuchen? I heard that he is one of the four cadets that pa.s.sed the fifth floor of the Clear Sky Tower among the new cadets."
"What is the big deal in pa.s.sing the fifth floor of the Clear Sky Tower? In the outer inst.i.tute, there are plenty of people who pa.s.sed the fifth floor, even if there aren't 100 cadets, there would be at least 80 cadets. But I have never seen a cadet who didn't attend a single lecture one month after the start of the academic term. He is too arrogant."
"Perhaps, he feels that he doesn't need any guidance? He might have enrolled purely to obtain the earth cla.s.s manuals."
"Chi, earth cla.s.s low-tier martial art manuals are easy to obtain, but earth cla.s.s low-tier cultivation technique manuals aren't so easy to obtain. One has to reach the top three positions of the listed cadets in order to obtain them. Looking at his att.i.tude, it is impossible for him to become a listed cadet, let alone getting the top three."
A few of the cadets were transmitting their voices to each other.
After sitting down in the only empty seat, Li Fuchen lifted his head and started to listen to Xu Chunhua's lecture.
"Every martial art contains the quintessence of heaven and earth, the difference is only the amount of content. From mystic cla.s.s martial arts, martial artists could comprehend the martial art intents. But what is martial art intent? It is actually the essence of the martial art and the law of the martial art. After comprehending the martial art intent, every move and form would have subtle quintessence of heaven and earth, allowing the pract.i.tioner to execute stronger power."
"But for earth cla.s.s martial art intents, it involves a deeper level of heaven and earth quintessence. As long as the martial art intent is powerful enough, even without qi, fatal power could still be burst out. Because you are using the power of heaven and earth and it has replaced your qi. Of course, the power of heaven and earth is something external. In comparison, using one's own qi to stimulate the earth cla.s.s martial art intent is undoubtedly the strongest…"
Perhaps it was for Li Fuchen's sake, Xu Chunhua had repeated all the lecture's content from the beginning.
One had to admit that as a high-level Reincarnation Realm martial artist and as a mentor of the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution, Xu Chunhua's theoretical knowledge was very competent. Li Fuchen's perception might be exceptional, but his martial arts knowledge was still very superficial. After listening to this lecture, he had a deeper understanding of martial arts.
"It seems like it is still necessary to listen to lectures from time to time." Li Fuchen thought to himself.
Unconsciously, an entire afternoon had pa.s.sed and it was close to the end of the lecture. Xu Chunhua informed Li Fuchen, "Li Fuchen, you didn't attend the previous lectures and didn't make it for the test of perception. This is a mystic cla.s.s high-tier martial art manual, go back and cultivate it properly. Three days later, I will evaluate the level of your perception base on your progress."
In the South Forest Martial Inst.i.tution, new cadets had to go through a test of perception. The test of perception had seven levels of results: normal, good, excellent, outstanding, extraordinary, transcending, and legendary.
In the outer inst.i.tute's grade A cla.s.ses, if any of the new cadets had the result of 'good', they would be immediately a.s.signed to a grade B cla.s.s. Cadets would need excellent perception in order to stay in grade A cla.s.ses. In order to be evaluated with the excellent perception, Li Fuchen would have to reach the sub-completion stage within three days.
"Yes, Mentor."
After hearing it was just a mystic cla.s.s high-tier martial art manual, Li Fuchen didn't even treat it as a thing.
Discussions started in the cla.s.sroom…
"Say, which stage do you think he can cultivate the mystic cla.s.s high-tier martial arts to in three days? What level of perception will he be evaluated with?"
"Getting to the sub-completion stage shouldn't be a problem. He should be evaluated between the outstanding and extraordinary level."
"I think so too. Our grade A cla.s.s 7 has 15 individuals with excellent perception, 2 with outstanding perception, and 2 with extraordinary perception. Since he has already pa.s.sed the fifth floor of the Clear Sky Tower, he is probably at the outstanding level. But it will be rather difficult to obtain an extraordinary result."
"Yes, if he could cultivate the mystic cla.s.s high-tier martial art to the completion stage in three days and obtain the extraordinary result, he would be an ace among the grade A cla.s.ses. People like our cla.s.s's Qin Lie and w.a.n.g Yingxue."
"Let's wait to see then. In three days, we will know if he is a dragon or a worm."
Everyone didn't underestimate Li Fuchen but they didn't have overly high expectations either. Li Fuchen was young, but age didn't represent everything.
***
Back at the courtyard, Li Fuchen opened up the mystic cla.s.s high-tier martial art manual that Xu Chunhua gave to him.
It was a fist art called the Black Truth Fist.
Li Fuchen took a quick glance and didn't feel any difficulty.
"Let me cultivate the Black Truth Fist first."
Li Fuchen started to study the Black Truth Fist.
Three days was extremely ample for Li Fuchen.
In just one hour, Li Fuchen had reached the sub-completion stage of the Black Truth Fist. Six hours later, he had reached the completion stage. Half a day later, the Black Truth Fist had reached the perfection stage. In just one day, the Black Truth Fist had reached the trance stage and he had comprehended the Black Truth Fist Intent.
One and a half days later, the Black Truth Fist Intent had reached its extremity and was close to a mystic cla.s.s peak-tier fist intent.
"It should be fine now." Li Fuchen tossed the Black Truth Fist aside and continued to comprehend the Green Sun Sword Intent.
At the present stage, comprehension of the Green Sun Sword Intent had the top priority. After the annual enrollment, a Listed Compet.i.tion would be conducted three months later. Those that could partic.i.p.ate in the Listed Compet.i.tion were the cadets that pa.s.sed the fifth floor of the Clear Sky Tower.
If they could pa.s.s the fifth floor of the Clear Sky Tower, they would have all cultivated an earth cla.s.s low-tier martial art.
Li Fuchen wasn't afraid of the new cadets of recent years. He wasn't that confident against those veterans that had been in the inst.i.tution for several years.
Especially the top three listed cadets as they had cultivated earth cla.s.s low-tier cultivation techniques. It didn't matter what rank were their earth cla.s.s low-tier cultivation technique at, it would still be horrifying. He had to reach an extremely high stage for his Green Sun Sword Intent, in order to contest with them. Otherwise, there wasn't any chance to go against the top three listed cadets.
In the blink of the eye, three days had pa.s.sed. Li Fuchen reluctantly withdrew from the Green Sun Sword Intent's cultivation state.
Today, he had to go through the test of perception and couldn't skip it.
After packing up, Li Fuchen headed to grade A cla.s.s 7.
"He is here."
Everyone from grade A cla.s.s 7 stared at Li Fuchen.
Li Fuchen sat down and waited for Xu Chunhua's arrival.
Soon enough, Xu Chunhua arrived. He scanned around and noticed Li Fuchen.
"Li Fuchen, the three days deadline is up. You shall execute the cultivation stage of the Black Truth Fist at the practice ground!" Xu Chunhua instructed.
"Understood." Li Fuchen nodded and walked together with Xu Chunhua to the practice ground that was beside the cla.s.sroom.
Everyone else followed behind closely.
In the s.p.a.cious practice ground, Li Fuchen stood there in a straight posture.
"You may begin."
Xu Chunhua had burning eyes, he wanted to see how capable was this cadet, who was arrogant and self-important.
Hearing the instruction, Li Fuchen circulated the true inferno qi in his body and executed a fist strike in the air. A powerful fist force fluctuated several times in succession while fist intent had flourished and radiated in all directions. Even though everyone stood far away, they could still feel that unstoppable fist intent.
Boom!
The isolation array that covered the practice ground had undulated with ripples when the fist force smashed onto the array.
"Fist intent!" Xu Chunhua was flabbergasted.
Every cadet from grade A cla.s.s 7 were dumbstruck as well.
Qin Lie and w.a.n.g Yingxue who had extraordinary perception had also inhaled a deep breath of cold air while being stupefied.
The test of perception had a straightforward evaluation. The sub-completion stage would mean excellent, completion stage would mean outstanding. The sub-perfection stage would mean extraordinary while the perfection stage would mean transcending. Reaching the trance stage would mean that the cadet had legendary perception.
If Li Fuchen was able to execute the fist intent, it obviously meant that the Black Truth Fist had reached the trance stage.
This meant that Li Fuchen had legendary perception.
Wasn't legendary perception simply heaven-defying?
Xu Chunhua was speechless for quite a moment.
