Martial Arts are Too Involuted, and If You are Not Careful, You Can Quickly Pass the High Martial Arts

16: Treasure Murong Qing, second-level martial arts, third level of blood refining!While Murong Qing was secretly watching Ye Chen, Ye Chen’s gaze was currently fixed on the Void Realm before him.

Lines of text slowly appeared.

”Frustrating Murong Qing, Mountain Lord even rejoices, proficiency +10!”

”Wind Cloud Step scoffs, proficiency +10!”

”Sword Drawing Technique quietly draws its sword, remaining silent, proficiency +10!”

As the text appeared, the System panel also quietly materialized in Ye Chen’s field of vision.

”name: Ye Chen”

”cultivation: Blood Refinement Warrior (10/100)”

”Mountain Lord Breathing Technique: Minor Achievement (66/100)”

”Wind Cloud Step: Minor Achievement (66/100)”

”Sword Drawing Technique: Minor Achievement (71/100)”

”Blood Refinement... Second Level!”

Looking at the 10 points of progress on the cultivation progress panel, a smile appeared at the corner of Ye Chen’s mouth.

Immediately after, a powerful aura surged from Ye Chen’s body, and a faint blood-red glow enveloped him.

”Murong Qing is shocked, Mountain Lord rejoices again, proficiency +10!”

”Wind Cloud Step is secretly pleased, proficiency +10!”

”Sword Drawing Technique scoffs, but draws its sword again, proficiency +10!”

Another three lines of text appeared in Ye Chen’s vision. Ye Chen was momentarily stunned. When he turned his head, he found Murong Qing looking at him with a shocked expression.

”You... Breakthrough?”

Murong Qing spoke with some difficulty. She didn’t understand why this hateful guy, who was at Blood Refining First Layer just like her, had suddenly achieved a Breakthrough.

Is a Breakthrough... that easy?

Murong Qing’s mind was a bit muddled.

However, Ye Chen didn’t pay attention to Murong Qing’s words; he just stared intently at the text before him.

”I didn’t expect that sparring with Murong Qing would yield such a reward. The proficiency gained from this girl alone is already comparable to that from the gamblers in the Hundred-Faced Arena.”

”Perhaps... it’s because Murong Qing is a Blood Refining First Layer Martial Artist?”

”That is to say, the higher the strength of the person, the more emotions are acquired, and the more Martial Arts proficiency increases? But why didn’t I gain proficiency from Chen Moyun?”

”Right, Chen Moyun is at least a Third-Tier Martial Artist and a student of Star River Academy. My improvements should be insignificant to Chen Moyun.”

Ye Chen’s mind raced, and he quickly grasped the key point.

”In that case... this sparring job with Murong Qing is a huge benefit to me!”

Ye Chen’s eyes sparkled, and a smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.

”This girl... is simply a Treasure Trove to me!”

Ye Chen’s gaze towards Murong Qing gradually grew much more intense.

However, this gaze, falling into Murong Qing’s eyes, seemed a bit more aggressive, causing Murong Qing to involuntarily hug herself tighter.

”You... why are you looking at me?”

Murong Qing looked at Ye Chen warily.

Ye Chen was stunned, then smiled casually, ”Today’s work is over. Do you want to continue tomorrow?”

Murong Qing hesitated for a moment. Although Ye Chen’s strength was many times greater than her own, it was precisely because of this that she could hone her sword art under such immense pressure.

After only four hours today, Murong Qing felt her sword art becoming more and more proficient.

A moment later, Murong Qing nodded, stood up, and retrieved a bottle containing deep-red Medicinal Pills from a room, handing it to Ye Chen.

”Here’s a bottle of Blood Burst Pill. There are still Nine Heavens to go; you can come and spar with me!”

Ye Chen looked at the Blood Burst Pill handed to him, slightly surprised. Was this woman not afraid he would take the item and run away?

However, this thought only crossed Ye Chen’s mind for a moment before he dismissed it.

Not to mention that her brother was a student of Star River Academy, with at least Third-Tier strength, even Chen Moyun alone was enough to make Ye Chen wary.

After all... he knew his identity.

”Mm!”

Ye Chen nodded, took the Blood Burst Pill, and was about to turn and leave when Murong Qing called out to him.

”Wait!”

Ye Chen turned around, puzzled, and looked at Murong Qing.

”Is there anything else?”

Murong Qing took out a book from herin my arms and handed it to Ye Chen: ”This is the Second-Tier Sword Art I Cultivate, the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’. You can try to Cultivate it. Then, when you spar with me using the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’, my improvement will be even faster!”

Ye Chen was stunned, looking at the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’ Murong Qing handed over.

”Second-Tier... Sword Art?”

”You just... gave it to me?”

Ye Chen looked at Murong Qing, a bit bewildered. This was a Second-Tier Martial Arts!

Just a First-Tier Medicinal Pill, the Blood Burst Pill, costs 100,000 per pill on the market. A First-Tier Breathing Technique or Martial Arts costs over a million.

As for Second-Tier Martial Arts and Breathing Technique... they are worth at least tens of millions.

Looking at the entire Jiangcheng, there probably aren’t many Second-Tier Martial Arts and Breathing Technique to be found.

”Yes? It’s just a Second-Tier Sword Art!”

Murong Qing blinked, saying with a calm expression.

Ye Chen’s mouth twitched.

”Second-Tier... just...”

Ye Chen took a deep breath, his gaze towards Murong Qing also becoming somewhat complex.

What kind of family could make Murong Qing utter such outrageous words?

Ye Chen suddenly remembered that Murong Qing seemed to have transferred to Jiangcheng No. 1 High School last year, and he had never heard of anyone named Murong being famous in Jiangcheng.

Yet, in her eyes, Second-Tier Martial Arts were like common cabbages.

”This girl’s background... is not simple!”

Ye Chen gave Murong Qing a deep look.

”But it’s not given to you for free. You need to master the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’ within Nine Heavens and reach the same level as me. Otherwise, I won’t need you for future sparring, and I’ll find someone else!”

Murong Qing looked at Ye Chen and said.

Ye Chen took the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’ from Murong Qing and asked, ”To what extent have you Cultivated the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’ now?”

”Just now, I’ve already reached Minor Achievement!”

When Murong Qing said this, there was also a hint of excitement. She had been Cultivating the Azure Wave Sword Art for half a month and had never reached Minor Achievement, but after only sparring with Ye Chen today, she successfully stepped into Minor Achievement.

This was also why she offered Ye Chen compensation for the next few days and gave him the Azure Wave Sword Art.

If Ye Chen were to spar with her using the Azure Wave Sword Art, she might be able to reach Major Achievement even faster.

At that time... she might even be able to challenge that place!

A sharp glint flickered in Murong Qing’s eyes.

”Minor Achievement, huh?”

Ye Chen glanced at Murong Qing, then nodded and left Murong Qing’s house... After returning home from Murong Qing’s house, Ye Chen eagerly took out the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’.

”Second-Tier Martial Arts... I just don’t know how difficult it is to get started. Since acquiring the System, I haven’t Cultivated any new Martial Arts or Breathing Technique. The threshold for Entry-Level...”

Ye Chen excitedly looked at the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’, constantly pondering.

”Let’s try it first!”

Then Ye Chen opened the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’ and began to carefully read its contents.

When Ye Chen had thoroughly read through the contents of the ’Azure Wave Sword Art’ and felt his eyes somewhat strained, a line of text suddenly popped up.

”Ding, Azure Wave Sword Art has entered the Entry-Level!”

Along with the appearance of this line of text, a sudden enlightenment surged into Ye Chen’s mind, which was precisely the Entry-Level ’Azure Wave Sword Art’!

”It’s... Entry-Level already??”

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned, then revealed an expression of wild joy.

”That is to say... whether it’s Martial Arts or Breathing Technique, with the System, I only need to look at the content once to automatically reach Entry-Level, and then... grind for proficiency?”

With this discovery, Ye Chen immediately couldn’t sit still.

Throughout history, how many Martial Artists, when faced with powerful Martial Arts and Breathing Technique, were stuck at the Entry-Level threshold?

And he... only needed to look once to reach Entry-Level in all Martial Arts and Breathing Technique.

Looking at the entire Blue Star... no one should be more awesome than him, right?

”It’s too abnormal!”

Ye Chen exhaled a long breath, closed his eyes, and began to digest the insights in his mind.

After digesting the insights, Ye Chen took out the Blood Burst Pill he had acquired from Murong Qing today.

”Ten Blood Burst Pills should be enough to elevate my cultivation to another level, and Mountain Lord Breathing Technique, Wind Cloud Step, and Sword Drawing Technique should also step into the Major Achievement Realm.”

”As for the Minor Achievement Azure Wave Sword Art that Murong Qing requested...”

Ye Chen smiled slightly, took a Blood Burst Pill from the bottle, and swallowed it directly... The next day, sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Ye Chen. After a night of Cultivating, Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes.

Before him, the System panel slowly appeared.

”name: Ye Chen”

”cultivation: Blood Refinement Warrior (21/100)”

”Mountain Lord Breathing Technique: Major Achievement (56/100)”

”Wind Cloud Step: Major Achievement (56/100)”

”Sword Drawing Technique: Major Achievement (56/100)”

”Azure Wave Sword Art: Minor Achievement (1/100)”

”Blood Refinement... Third Level!”

Ye Chen slowly exhaled a turbid breath, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

”Not only Blood Refinement Third Level, but my Breathing Technique and the other two First-Tier Martial Arts have also stepped into the Major Achievement Realm, and are only halfway to Perfection.”

”Azure Wave Sword Art has also reached Minor Achievement.”

”Now... even if I face a Blood Refinement Fourth Level Martial Artist, I can easily defeat them. Even against a newly ascended Blood Refinement Fifth Level Martial Artist... I can put up a fight!”

”If I can raise the Azure Wave Sword Art to Major Achievement, I can even rival the Arena King of the Hundred-Faced Arena!”

A sharp glint flickered in Ye Chen’s eyes.

The Arena Kings of the Hundred-Faced Arena are all Blood Refinement Fifth Level experts who have mastered a First-Tier Martial Arts to Perfection.

However, the Azure Wave Sword Art that Ye Chen Cultivates is a Second-Tier Martial Arts, and even at Minor Achievement... it is comparable to a First-Tier Martial Arts at Perfection.

”Now... looking at Jiangcheng, I can be considered among the ranks of the strong.”
