Chapter 61: Chapter 61: "Nirvana Divine Codex
The announcement of a level-two war alert within a day had caused a huge stir, prompting reinforcements to head to the Lob Sea. However, it did not significantly affect the daily lives of most citizens in Jiang City.
Watching the military video played by Teacher Xu Bo, Li Yuan felt a significant relief from his previously tense state, easing much of his worry.
At around nine in the evening, after consuming four boxes of nutritional meals and a bottle of basic blood and energy potion, Li Yuan finally felt his hunger subside and his physical fatigue recover substantially.
"It's true what they say," he thought. "When you're hungry, all you can think about is eating. Once you're full, all sorts of thoughts come flooding in."
Li Yuan's worry about his uncle grew stronger.
After tidying up, he said, "Teacher, I'm heading home now."
"Yes, go home and get everything ready," Xu Bo replied. "Tomorrow afternoon, we leave for Jiangbei Martial Arts University."
"Understood."
As Li Yuan walked out of the elite building, Xu Bo watched him leave the school gates, murmuring to himself, "I hope Li Yuan isn't too affected. His spear technique has reached the fourth level, and as long as he performs normally, he should make it into the special training list at Kunlun University."
"Once he passes this hurdle, the path ahead will be much smoother."
Xu Bo understood that Li Yuan's cultivation was different from that of ordinary people and required substantial resources. Getting into the core of one of the top five universities was essential.
...
By ten o'clock, Li Yuan returned home. His younger brother and sister were already asleep. His aunt, with a calm demeanor, comforted Li Yuan with a new set of reassuring words, telling him not to worry and to focus on preparing for the invitation event at Jiangbei Martial Arts University.
"Alright, as long as Uncle is fine, I will strive to make it onto the special training list," Li Yuan said, choosing not to expose his aunt's lie. He understood that she didn't want to tell him the truth to avoid affecting his performance in the upcoming assessment.
"Tomorrow," he thought, "we head to Jiangbei Martial Arts University." Returning to his room, he continued his regular training routine without a hint of complacency despite his spear technique reaching the fourth level.
On the contrary, having witnessed the power of the Sky Warrior and feeling his own powerlessness while his uncle was in danger, Li Yuan's drive to cultivate was stronger than ever. Persistence and gradual accumulation were the foundation of achieving great success.
[Your life level has increased from 8.8 to 8.9]
[Your fist technique has improved from...]
[Your speed has increased from...]
Three consecutive notifications appeared on his Divine Palace interface.
"Breaking through the fourth level of fist technique," he noted. "Today's breakthrough in spear technique to the fourth level has led to perfect control over my body's strength, significantly enhancing my basic cultivation method's efficiency." Li Yuan nodded to himself. His cultivation efficiency was already faster than most elite class students and would only continue to accelerate.
...
At around one in the morning, while Li Yuan was still training at home using the "Observing the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture," in the Starry Sky South Lake Community of Guanshan District, the name of the community was ordinary, but it was one of the top communities in the district and even in Jiang City.
This community housed families of martial artists from the Starry Sky Martial Hall, and residents were at least level 15 martial artists. On the east side of the community, in an enormous, mansion-like standalone villa with tight security, there were not only guards but also combat robots patrolling, and a flying vehicle parked on the lawn.
In the villa's basement, an expansive martial arts hall over a thousand square meters in size was equipped with luxurious, state-of-the-art facilities, including a 60-meter-long speed testing track.
In the center of the martial arts room, a young girl in a Red Clouds practice uniform meditated with closed eyes.
"Little sister," the young man continued, "I have to leave soon after this. You need to keep working hard in the coming months."
"Achieve good results in your exams. After the college entrance examination, the family's review team will come."
"Just arrived, and now leaving again?" Lin Lanyue frowned.
"I'm the head of the department, with many people waiting on me. I can't completely stop," the young man patted her head affectionately. "Don't worry, I'll come back to see you once the Penglai Star Boundary matter is resolved."
"If there's anything, we can also talk through the virtual network."
"Okay, I know. Don't worry," Lin Lanyue smiled.
Although she was reluctant to see her second brother leave, she knew the importance of priorities.
...
March 14, Saturday, 2 p.m.
First High School in Guanshan District.
While other students were training in the martial arts classroom, a vice principal, Xu Bo, and the senior year director were already standing on the playground with Li Yuan, Lin Lanyue, Gu Qianghan, and eight other students, waiting.
Li Yuan and Gu Qianghan both carried backpacks.
"Li Yuan, have you been to Jiangbei Martial Arts University before?" Gu Qianghan asked softly.
"No," Li Yuan shook his head slightly. The campus of Jiangbei Martial Arts University was over a hundred kilometers from Jiang City and strictly controlled.
"I've been there twice, both times with my sister," Gu Qianghan smiled. "She has a permanent pass and can bring people along."
"Oh?" Li Yuan was somewhat surprised, glancing at Lin Lanyue, who was meditating with her eyes closed. He knew her family was well-off, but having a permanent pass for Jiangbei Martial Arts University?
"They're here," Xu Bo suddenly said, looking at the sky.
Whoosh!
A large aircraft, resembling an airship, rapidly descended from high altitude and then slowed down quickly, gradually landing on the school playground.
It was a massive structure, over seventy meters long and more than twenty meters high, streamlined and emitting a blue glow.
Very beautiful.
"A level-two aircraft, RB9 general type, mostly used for short-distance passenger transport," Gu Qianghan recognized it at a glance and murmured, "As expected of Jiangbei Martial Arts University, very generous."
A level-two aircraft? Li Yuan was secretly amazed. He knew that the aircraft on Blue Star were classified into ordinary, level-one, level-two, and level-three... The classification was mainly based on flight speed and defense capability, with each level having multiple types based on their purpose.
For example, a level-two aircraft indicated that once it was sealed and fully accelerated, it could withstand attacks from level-two source martial artists without being destroyed.
Its flight speed? At full speed, it was at least supersonic, and several times the speed of sound was not uncommon.
Buzz~ The cabin door slowly opened.
"Prepare to board," Xu Bo said softly.
