Jing Hao was polishing his sword when Tang Tian found him.

Jing Hao looked at Tang Tian, his expression was normal: “Is there anything?”

“I want to leave this place.” Tang Tian was direct: “I want to go to Rainbow City.”

“In three months, the carriage will come. If you have fifth level strength, you may leave with the carriage.” Jing Hao stated blandly.

“I wish to leave this place right now.” Tang Tian said in all seriousness.

Jing Hao ignored him and checked his own sword carefully. His actions were gentle and focused, as if Tang Tian did not exist.

“Is there no other way?” Tang Tian asked in disatisfaction.

“No.” Jing Hao did not stop his hand movements: “If you don’t reach the fifth level, and leave the camp on your own accord, you’ll be wanted by the Honourable Martial Group.”

Tang Tian’s face revealed anger: “Darn it!” Thinking he could not find Qian Hui immediately, he was in an utterly bad mood.

“How did you come here?” Jing Hao put down his sword and asked casually.

Tang Tian described the incident on his journey here again. When Jing Hao heard about the Weak Point Martial Arena, a flash of oddness appeared on his face. It seemed to Tang Tian that nothing had happened along his way here.

“Understood.” Jing Hao stated lightly: “Kong You Lin is a realistic man. He has always seen the weak point martial arena as his masterpiece. It’s no wonder you’ve been sent here since you destroyed it.”

He looked as if he was very close to Master Kong.

“No… It can’t be…” Tang Tian stuttered, looking in daze. He completely did not thinking the question would appear here. He thought Master Kong was a pretty nice chap.

“If you talents are outstanding, and have a bright future, they probably won’t put this matter at heart for such a wreck. And on the contrary, they’d treat you very well. But, your talents are the worst and you destroyed the Weak Point Martial Arena. I’m afraid he might think your current capabilities is mainly due to your blood meridians.” Jing Hao said a pile of things all at once.

“Blood meridians?” Tang Tian asked in a daze.

“Kong You Lin might have the wrong foresight.” Jing Hao said casually. But for Tang Tian, he saw him rejoicing in his misfortune.

“What are blood meridians?” Tang Tian extended his arm and asked.

Jing Hao frowned: “Where did you study previously?”

“I used to study at Wu An Star in Star Wind City.” Tang Tian replied honestly: “But, my results were bad. I practised the fundamental martial techniques for five years. At the beginning, I studied at Andrew Academy, then I got expelled, so I attended the Caramel Academy.”

“You practised fundamental martial techniques for five years?” Jing Hao straightened his body looking shocked.

“Yeah.” Tang Tian nodded.

“What a pity…” Jing Hao eyes was filled with regrets and admiration. What a pity… he did not cultivate sword arts…

“It’s not a pity!” Tang Tian shook his head: “I feel that fundamental martial techniques are very useful.”

“You’re right.” Jing Hao turned gentle but laughed coldly: “Kong You Lin and his bunch of people all have short sighted vision. They only recognize innate talents. Don’t worry, they’ll regret it. Blood meridians are known as the energy accumulated in your blood. However, you’re definitely not powerful because of blood meridians.”

Jing Hao slowed down: “Seems like I need to tell you about the matters within Honourable Martial Group. The Honourable Martial Group dotes on big organisations, and there are many factions within. Some of them have different ideologies, some are created for benefits, counting all of them of all sizes, there should be about ten or more factions.”

Tang Tian was dumbfounded: “Over ten… isn’t that just a plate of scattered sand?”

“You’re right.” Jing Hao did not refute and instead, agreed with Tang Tian’s saying: “When the Honourable Martial Group was formed initially, it was a very relaxed organisation. It was even more slack in the past. Usually, all the privileges are possessed by the ministers of different departments. Kong You Lin’s sister is the minister of Immortal Constellation Mountain. But if you want to get promoted quickly, you can venture out into the Heaven’s Road. Although it is dangerous, credits you accumulate will be far more than those who are lagging behind.”

Tang Tian shook his head: “I don’t like the Honourable Martial Group.”

“Because you’re sent here?” Jing Hao rolled his eyes at Tang Tian: “It’ll happen anywhere. Is there no such things happening at the academy? It’s just a matter of perspective.”

“That’s logical.” Tang Tian thought about Zhou Peng and suddenly, was relieved. Tang Tian slapped on his clenched fist: “But, I will beat them up!”

“You’ll have your chance.” Jing Hao not only did not had the intention to persuade him, he even encouraged him: “If you want to leave, I have a method.”

“What is it?” Tang Tian perked up.

“They will give you an identity outside of the camp which will facilitate you. I will give you the identity of an iron ranked martial artist.” Jing Hao said without any hesitation: “However, I have to say this first, you have to join my sect.”

“Join your sect?” Tang Tian looked at Jing Hao suspiciously.

“I see that you have potential.” Jing Hao was blatantly honest: “In addition, you have inherited the martial techniques of Senior Nong. Senior Nong is the backbone of the sect, no one would object to that. Our sect pursues energy with tenacity. Usually, we have no other activities. When we join up, it is to protect the benefits of the Honourable Martial group. As for your grudge with Kong You Lin, the Honourable Martial group will not care. We will not care. You will settle on your own.”

Tang Tian’s heart suddenly skipped a beat: “Iron ranked martial artist, is probably fifth level.”

“Usually, it is. However, I see you have potential. With the rights and privileges, I can definitely provide you with an iron rank identity.” Jing Hao stated. He then said with an underlying meaning: “And, now you are already at the fourth level, you’re not far from the fifth level.”

“Good!” Tang Tian did not ponder: “But, I want to go to Rainbow Constellation!”

“Not a problem. I can send you out.” Jing Hao said peacefully: “But, I don’t recommend that you leave right now.”

“Why?” Tang Tian looked unfriendly.

“Your strength is too weak.” Jing Hao did not hide: ‘Your fighting power is stronger than the usual fourth levels, but you’re still a distance away from the fifth level. Although the Rainbow Constellation is not some great planet, it is slightly more powerful. All the people there are at least fifth level and above. If you go there now, you’d lose out. Stay patiently for another three months, and I have confidence you’ll advance by another level.”

“Liar!” Tang Tian looked in disbelief. Three months to advance to a new level, even Uncle Bing would not boast in this way.

“Why do you think I’m here at the outer barracks?” Jing Hao asked him back.

“Baldie said you’ve offended someone.” Tang Tian stated.

“Although I’m only a bronze ranked martial artist it’s not to the extent for someone to send me away.” Though Jing Hao’s face remained calm, but his tone of voice revealed his pride. He then added on: “The reason I’m here is because there is an advantage to cultivating here.”

“Benefits in cultivation?” Tang Tian was shocked.

Jing Hao nodded: “Follow me tomorrow and you’ll know.”

There was no day or night in the world underground. There was darkness everywhere. If not for the glowing moss, there would only be darkness in this place.

Jing Hao saw Tang Tian’s bronze mechanical ostrich and was stunned. For the first time, his gaze revealed a sense of curiosity: “This is… the bronze mechanical ostrich?”

Tang Tian basked in joy and was proud of himself: “Yes!”

Jing Hao circled the bronze mechanical ostrich as he studied it. On his face, there was not an ounce of peacefulness, as if he were a curious baby, he touched a little here and there, and peeped through all the places he could find. Tang Tian looked at him amusingly. He never thought Jing Hao had this side of him.

“Ancient mechanics are so amazing!” I’ve always only heard of them, but have never witnessed one. I did not believe previously, but now, I fully respect the ancient people’s standard. They’re darn good.” Jing Hao complimented and straightened his body. He then organised his tone: “Put it away.”

“Put it away?” Tang Tian stunned and said hurriedly: “My light body technique is only rank three, I cannot keep up with you.”

“Its movements are too big, and will awaken the star spirit beasts underneath.” Jing Hao rolled his eyes at Tang Tian and said: “Furthermore, as a martial artist, you should focus on improving yourself and not to borrow strength from external sources. This is your Iron Light Plate to prove that you’re an iron ranked martial artist. Every month, all your privileges will be transferred into it. It is similar to an Aquarius Martial Cabinet. If you have anything you want to sell it off, you can use it to transfer it to another martial artist.”

“Oh.” Tang Tian studied it carefully as he took it over. The iron plate was about the size of a palm, hard and sturdy. It felt heavy in his hands. On the surface, it was decorated with exquisite floral patterns. In the middle of the floral patterns was a sun.

Jing Hao pointed at the iron plate and said: “When you bring out the Martial Spirit, you can use it to contact other people. There are more functions to it. Don’t ever lose it.”

Indeed, Tang Tian tried to use the iron plate with his Martial Spirit to connect with someone and immediately, a series of name appeared. Jing Hao was one of them, but the others were grey in colour. Only Jing Hao’s name was glowing. Tang Tian thought about it and clicked on Jing Hao.

Jing Hao was surprised. He took out the bronze plate and the sun in the middle of the bronze plate suddenly turned grey.

He connected with the bronze plate and was stunned, it was Tang Tian!

Jing Hao could not remain calm. His eyes wide opened as he exclaimed: “You’ve already formed your Martial Spirit?”

“Yeah, I have formed it for a period of time already.” Tang Tian shouted. He only thought about it and the words travelled into Jing Hao’s heart. Tang Tian felt this thing was super interesting. Tang Tian always saw Honourable Martial Group in a bad light and thought they were not as good as the rumours had said they were. However, when he saw the iron plate, he finally understood how powerful Honourable Martial Group was.

Jing Hao looked at Tang Tian in shock. He believed in Tang Tian’s potential. If not, he would not have bribed Tang Tian with a iron rank martial artist identity. But he never thought that Tang Tian had already produced a Martial Spirit. Tang Tian stated he had produced it for a period of time already. That meant that when he was in the third level, he had already produced the Martial Spirit!

Third level and he had produced the Martial Spirit. If he did not see it with his own eyes, Jing Hao would never had believed him.

This could never be done solely with blood meridians!

Jing Hao suddenly realised, he had picked up a real treasure this time round.

Taking a deep breath in, Jing Hao then calmed himself down and looked up: “Let’s go. You’ll have the time to discover.”

Tang Tian heard this and kept the Iron Light Plate.

Two silhouettes disappeared in the darkness.
