CH 78

Chapter 78: Breath of Flame, Lu Sheng’s Ultimate Punch!

Lu Sheng grabbed a towel from a dazed girl beside him and slowly wiped the sweat off his body. His gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Dong Qingxue, who was dozens of meters away.

A huge amount of spirituality seeped out of his body.

An invisible wind blew at the corners of the crowd’s clothes. At that moment, they felt the light in front of them quickly dim as a large shadow rose from behind Lu Sheng.

There seemed to be an invisible tornado roaring above Lu Sheng’s head.

“This …”

The expressions of the trainees changed from shock to horror. They subconsciously stepped back and looked at Lu Sheng as if they had seen a ghost.

At that moment, Lu Sheng gave them a terrifying feeling. It was like the dark clouds before a storm. Terror was brewing in the silence, accompanied by a low pressure that made it difficult for them to breathe.

Lu Sheng’s face was calm.

The powerful spiritual strength of a Level 3 Spiritual Master had caused such a small impact on the people around him.

He looked at Dong Qingxue from afar.

Although the two of them were still trainee and Chief instructor of the training camp, after becoming a Level 3 Spiritual Master, he was qualified to talk to Dong Qingxue as an equal even if he was not as powerful as her. Dong Qingxue was also looking at Lu Sheng. Her beautiful eyes were shining.

She knew what Lu Sheng meant by releasing his spiritual strength.

This was an ancient etiquette between Spiritual Masters. It was like shaking hands in modern society or clenching fists between ancient martial artists.

However, it was a strange feeling.

Dong Qingxue had never thought that she would one day be able to perform such an etiquette with a seventeen-year-old boy. Moreover, it was almost as if they were equals.

Beside Dong Qingxue, Xia Lin was like a frightened little rabbit, curling up behind Dong Qingxue’s back. Her spiritual strength, which was not even at Level 1, was stuck between Dong Qingxue and Lu Sheng, trembling.

In Xia Lin’s eyes, Lu Sheng was like a demon surrounded by a thunderstorm at that moment.

The shadow in her heart was growing bigger and bigger.

It was too scary …

Dong Qingxue retracted her spiritual strength and turned to leave. Lu Sheng heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed that Dong Qingxue had acknowledged his existence.

His trump card as a Level 3 Spiritual Master had been exposed. He would probably be treated differently from now on. Lu Sheng thought as he held the towel that he had used to wipe his sweat.

At this time, a pair of a girl’s small hands suddenly reached over and quickly took the towel in his hand, and then handed over a bottle of water.

Lu Sheng raised his head and saw that it was Yang Yuan.

“Lu Sheng, where are we going next?” Yang Yuan’s fair and delicate face was slightly flushed because of her excitement. She looked at Lu Sheng with eyes full of worship and expectation, just like a fangirl.

“The Combat Training Room, or …” Yang Yuan reported the names of all the training rooms in one breath.

Lu Sheng was stunned. He looked around and found that everyone was looking at him with the same expression. They were like a group of soldiers with high morale, waiting for their general to lead them to conquer new continents one after another.

Lu Sheng laughed involuntarily and shook his head.

“I’m not going anywhere.”

“Uh …”

Yang Yuan was stunned for a moment.

Lu Sheng looked up at the giant electronic clock on the far wall and said, “It’s almost time for dinner. Eating is the most important thing.”

With that, Lu Sheng turned around and left calmly.

Behind him was a group of stupefied students.

After lunch, Lu Sheng did not go to the training room. He had achieved his goal of testing his strength. There was no need to waste time on other things.

Lu Sheng had done his research. The only cultivation rooms in the training camp that were valuable to him were the Gravity Training Room and the Agility Training Room.

After returning to the dormitory, Lu Sheng continued to shut himself in and quietly carried out his original homework.

With four Level 11 techniques, he was pressed for time. He could not even sleep at night. Lu Sheng had already planned it out. From now on, he only needed to spend one to two hours in the Gravity and Agility Training Room every day.

He practised the Stellar Physical Refinement Technique a few times. When evening came, a soldier came running to inform him.

“Lu Sheng, the Chief Instructor wants to see you.”

Finally, it was here. Lu Sheng was not surprised. He packed up a little and followed the soldier out. Along the way, Lu Sheng noticed that the patrolling soldiers in the base were all looking at him in awe.

It seemed that his performance in the training room had spread throughout the camp. Martial artists worshipped the strong, especially in the military camp.

Dong Qingxue’s office was located in the deepest part of the training camp. When Lu Sheng arrived, he saw Xia Lin walking out of Dong Qingxue’s office.

Xia Lin’s expression and posture were originally quite calm. She was quiet and gave people the impression that she was quiet and obedient.

However, when she saw Lu Sheng, her body immediately tensed up.

Her walking posture also became unnatural. She lowered her head and walked closer to the wall.

When Lu Sheng was about to walk past her, Xia Lin even buried half of her face in the wall. It was as if she was being punished to face the wall and reflect on her mistakes. She did not dare to move at all.

“Do I look that scary?” she asked. “Why are you so afraid of me?” Lu Sheng was speechless. He had always had a good impression of Xia Lin.

Looking at Xia Lin’s expression, Lu Sheng had a bad idea. When he walked past Xia Lin, he deliberately coughed and stomped his foot heavily.

It was as if he was stepping on Xia Lin’s tail.

Xia Lin’s entire body trembled as if she had been electrocuted. She ran out and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“Haha …” Lu Sheng could not help but laugh.

“Stop teasing her. You’re the one who scared her.” A voice came from the front.

Lu Sheng looked up and saw Dong Qingxue standing at the door with her arms crossed.

“Hello, Chief Instructor.”

Dong Qingxue nodded at him and said, “Come in.”

Lu Sheng followed Dong Qingxue into the office. Dong Qingxue’s office was much bigger than Lu Sheng had imagined.

After entering, he saw a rock table that was more than five meters long and two meters wide. A handsome young man with a melancholy expression leaned against the edge of the table with a cup of coffee in his hand.

It was Qin Shaojun.

At the end of the office was a huge instrument with a huge screen and control panel. This instrument alone took up at least a third of the space in the office.

Even so, there was still at least a hundred square meters of empty space in the middle.

When Qin Shaojun saw Lu Sheng enter, the coffee cup in his hand trembled violently. Then, his eyes stared straight at him as if he was looking at an alien.

“Hello, Chief Instructor Qin.” Lu Sheng greeted him politely.

“Hello, hello.” Qin Shaojun’s expression was complicated. No one knew what he was thinking.

“Take a seat.” Dong Qingxue gestured for Lu Sheng to sit. Then, she said, “I invited you here mainly to do a simple strength test on you. Then, I’ll discuss something with you.”

Lu Sheng had guessed that this would happen before he came, so he stood up quickly.

“Sure.”

There were professional testing instruments in Dong Qingxue’s office.

There was a BQV testing device, one equipment to measure the Combat Power Index, and one that he had never seen before.

Dong Qingxue took out a disposable blood collection needle and handed it to Lu Sheng. She asked, “Have you tested yourself recently?”

Lu Sheng shook his head. “No.”

Dong Qingxue was puzzled. “Aren’t there blood test instruments in the student dormitories?”

Lu Sheng hesitated for a moment, then answered honestly, “The needle can’t pierce through my skin.”

Pfft!

Qin Shaojun spat out his coffee when he heard this. Then, he pointed at Lu Sheng and shouted at Dong Qingxue, “I told you, this kid has definitely reached Level 3 and is starting to temper his bone and muscles. His skin is so tough!”

Dong Qingxue took out a new packet needles from the drawer with a complicated expression and handed it to Lu Sheng.

“This is a needle specially prepared for Level 5 Martial Artists. It should be able to pierce through your skin.”

Lu Sheng was deep in thought.

It seemed that Dong Qingxue and Qin Shaojun were both Level 5 Martial Artists. Otherwise, they would not have been equipped with Level 5 blood collection needles.

The tip of the Level 5 needle was a beautiful bright gold. It easily pierced through Lu Sheng’s skin that had been tempered by the advanced chapter of the Stellar Body Refinement Technique.

A drop of red blood rolled down the test tube, and a blue light shone down.

Dong Qingxue and Qin Shaojun stared at the BQV testing instrument’s display subconsciously.

Soon, a number popped up on the display.

“123.651”

“Hiss, hiss …” Qin Shaojun gasped softly. He could not help but exclaim.

“I haven’t seen such a young Level 3 Martial Artist in almost ten years.”

Dong Qingxue’s eyes also contained a hint of shock, but her expression was still calm.

“Test your combat strength.” She said to Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng was not surprised that he had become a Level 3 Martial Artist. He already had a hunch in his heart when he started to cultivate the advanced chapter of the Stellar Body Refinement Technique.

However, he really could not estimate the exact value of his combat strength.

He only knew that he had definitely become a Level 4 Martial Artist, but he did not know how much he had exceeded the minimum combat strength standard of a Level 4 Martial Artist.

He could use this opportunity to test it out.

Lu Sheng walked to the instrument that tested his combat strength and took a deep breath.

There seemed to be flames rising in his eyes.

“Breath of Flames!”

Boom!

In an instant, there seemed to be a ball of flames exploding in Lu Sheng’s chest. Even his breathing became hotter.

Breath of Flames!

The Stellar Body Refinement Technique made his physique as hot as fire, planting a star-like seed in his body.

Comprehending the [Flame Breathing Technique] was a matter of course. When the conditions were right, success would come naturally.

Therefore, the Breath of Flames was also the breathing technique that Lu Sheng had comprehended the earliest and the deepest when he cultivated the advanced chapter of the Natural Breathing Technique.

However, he had never used it in battle.

The Breath of Flames affected Lu Sheng’s entire body. It was as if there were streams of heat flowing in his blood vessels.

His two hearts were beating rapidly.

His Qi and blood were roaring.

Divine Illumination Meditation Scripture!

Breath of Flames!

Perfection Realm Fist Technique!

Eight times the Stellar Power Generation!

Since he was going to test it, he would give it his all.

Let me see how my combat strength fares! Lu Sheng aimed at the slot of the instrument and punched out.

At this moment, his eyes were as bright as stars.

Boom!
