Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 30: 30 Chapter Soaring through the Clouds, Transforming Jiao_1

”... ’Soaring Cloud Step: Transforming Flood Dragon,’ a top-tier body movement technique formed by the concentration of dozens of techniques, when combined with the mysterious ’Bull Demon Technique: Condensing Shura,’ yields miraculous effects. If one achieves Great Perfection, no one with Martial Meridian Sixth Layer or below can match it in speed, and it remains among the top techniques for those below the Martial Pulse Ninth Level.”

”It requires a high-level body movement technique as a foundation to further improve.”

”Combined with Gang Qi, it can even produce an attack effect.”

As expected, after reaching the sixth level of the ’Soaring Cloud Step,’ a qualitative change occurred, and it seemed to have a special connection with the ’Bull Demon Technique.’

Now, it appears that the ’Soaring Cloud Step’ and ’Bull Demon Technique’ are not merely independent cultivation techniques; they complement each other.”

Gang Qi!

I must comprehend Gang Qi immediately!

Whether it is the ’Bull Demon Technique: Condensing Evil Spirits’ or the ’Soaring Cloud Step: Transforming Dragon,’ Gang Qi is required to unleash their true effects.

However, when he closed his eyes to comprehend Gang Qi again, he had already converted the True Qi in three Martial Veins into Gang Qi.

But at the final moment of success, he fell short again.

All the Gang Qi dispersed, reverting back to True Qi.

Ling Xiao was baffled by this.

He sat there thinking for a while, then simply stood up.

I can’t just figure this out on my own, I need to ask someone who understands Gang Qi.

After all, he is a disciple of the Ling Family. He believed the Ling Family members would not neglect him.

After all, with the size of the Ling Family, there are all kinds of people. Not everyone is like Ling Chong. For instance, the master from Pharmacy Hall is a very kind person.

Thinking this, he gave up on the idea of continuing his retreat.

Then he left the practice room.

At this moment, he saw grandfather Hong Qi pacing back and forth, looking very anxious.

”What’s wrong, grandfather? Is there another problem?”

Ling Xiao asked, puzzled.

”You’ve left seclusion? Well, it’s like this. Just now, your master from the Pharmacy Hall came over for tea and told me something,” Hong Qi said: ”Tomorrow, Elder Ling exits his seclusion, and all disciples must be there to greet him.”

”Must I go?” Ling Xiao frowned.

Honestly, he did not want to join in the buzz.

With so many disciples in the Ling Family, even if he went, what difference would it make? Could Elder Ling actually recognize him?

”Not necessarily, but your master from the Pharmacy Hall said that every time Elder Ling exits seclusion, he gives guidance to the disciples on their cultivation, even if it’s just a word, it can greatly benefit the disciples!” Hong Qi explained: ”More importantly, if Elder Ling takes a liking to you and accepts you as his personal disciple, that status would be prestigious.”

”It seems I really should go then!”

To say Ling Xiao did not want to become Elder Ling’s disciple would be a lie.

After all, Elder Ling is the strongest in the Ling Family. He didn’t know the specifics of his strength, but it certainly surpassed that of others by a lot.

More importantly, if he became his disciple, would there ever be an issue with resources again?

After receiving guidance from Elder Ling, many things might become easier.

Even if he could not become Elder Ling’s disciple, if he could gain some insight from Elder Ling’s instruction, it would be great.

”I’ll go!”

Ling Xiao nodded: ”When does he leave seclusion?”

”Let’s hurry over now; he’s about to leave seclusion any moment.”

Hong Qi was anxious because time was running out.

Upon hearing this, Ling Xiao said nothing more, turned around, and left the courtyard quickly, surprising Hong Qi with his speed.

By now, many disciples had already gathered in the square outside the location where Elder Ling was in seclusion.

In addition to Ling Xiao, an undistinguished disciple, there were top disciples from Elite Hall and Genius Hall.

Disciples from Genius Hall would typically be out on missions at this time, so only two or three who happened to be around had come.

The majority were Elite Hall disciples and those deemed undistinguished.

Even the top ten experts from Elite Hall had arrived.

This is a rare scene indeed.

”Tsk tsk, it’s lively today. Those two are monsters from the Genius Hall. Even though they’re both ranked around a hundred, they are both disciples of the Martial Vein Quadruple Layer who have comprehended Gang Qi.”

”We can’t compare with those monsters, but we might be able to catch up with the disciples of the Elite Hall. Did you see? Ling Yixue, who’s currently ranked second, and Ling Feng, just promoted to the third place in the Elite Hall, have both arrived!”

”The one who was defeated is Ling Cheng, right? He’s here too, currently ranked sixth!”

Although the disciples present envied the monsters of the Genius Hall, such monsters were difficult to chase.

So, what they discussed the most were the disciples ranked in the top ten of the Elite Hall.

At least there was some hope of catching up to them.

There were thousands of disciples in the Elite Hall, all above the Martial Veins Third Layer.

Countless mediocre disciples, all below the Martial Veins Second Layer.

Ling Xiao used to be the very bottom among the mediocre disciples.

So it was totally normal for others to mock and look down on him back then.

Of course, now there are not many people paying attention to him, after all, others still don’t know about his breakthrough to the Martial Veins Third Layer.

For someone with the cultivation level of Martial Veins Second Layer, there’s really no need to pay too much attention.

If one can’t make it into the top ten of the Elite Hall, attracting a fan base won’t be easy.

Among the disciples in the top ten of the Elite Hall, Ling Yixue was the only female disciple.

Moreover, with her natural beauty and terrifying strength, she naturally received a lot of attention.

”Ling Yihang is here!”

”Ling Yihang! The current chief disciple of the Elite Hall? Even more powerful than Ling Yixue, that Ling Yihang?”

”Yes, him! He’s impressive. He was accepted through an assessment and changed his surname to Ling. Who would have thought that he would now become the chief disciple of the Elite Hall? Truly a role model for people like us!”

Exclamations arose.

All attention was drawn to him.

Even the few monsters from the Genius Hall glanced over.

Because the chief disciple of Elite Hall was very likely to advance to the Genius Hall and become one of the little monsters, a future opponent for them.

Ling Xiao also looked in the direction everyone was gazing at.

He saw a plainly dressed male disciple.

By his age, he looked a couple of years older than himself, with a simple and honest smile on his face.

This was completely different from the arrogant expressions of those from the main family of the Ling Clan.

”Good gracious, as expected from the chief disciple of the Elite Hall, he might appear to be honest and simple, but he’s got a wild beast hidden inside him. Anyone who underestimates him is definitely in for a huge loss!”

Ling Xiao had heard of Ling Yihang before, but previously he had no right to speak to him.

To avoid humiliating himself, he always kept his distance from these disciples of the Elite Hall.

Today was the first time he got a proper look at him.

This was truly a formidable rival.

At least to him, this Ling Yihang was undoubtedly much harder to deal with than Ling Feng or Ling Fei.

The arrival of Ling Yihang not only caught Ling Xiao’s attention.

It also drew the intense fighting spirit from Ling Yixue, Ling Feng, Ling Yun, Ling Cheng, and Ling Tieshou, who all aspired to challenge for the chief disciple position in the top ten.

The chief disciple of the Elite Hall.

This was not just an empty honor.

It came with tangible benefits.

In training, one would receive many unexpected advantages.

Everybody wanted that position, but there were not many who were truly qualified to challenge for it.

Among the Elite Hall, the top ten disciples might have the power for a battle, but only the top five were perhaps a real threat to Ling Yihang.

Of course, Ling Xiao was an exception. He didn’t want to expose his strength too much for the time being.

”Look! Ling Tieshou, who has just recently advanced to fourth place, has arrived!”
