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

40: If I come here again, I’ll be a dog!Inside Ye Chen’s residence at the Jiangnan Training Camp.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged on his bed, looking at the void in front of him as the System panel slowly emerged.

【name: Ye Chen】

【cultivation: Viscera Tempering Martial Artist (45/100)】

【Xuan Tan Breathing Method: Minor Achievement (75/100)】

【Three Thousand Wind Shadow Steps: Minor Achievement (75/100)】

【Nine Heavens Cloud Piercing Sword: Major Achievement (5/100)】

【Sword Aura: Minor Achievement (5/100)】

After defeating the guardian of the sixth floor, the onlookers outside had also brought Ye Chen quite a bit of proficiency improvement.

“Even the Major Achievement Nine Heavens Cloud Piercing Sword gained four points of proficiency. It seems there are big fish outside the Ink Dragon Tower!”

Ye Chen looked at the increased proficiency of his Sword Aura and Nine Heavens Cloud Piercing Sword, speaking with some surprise.

After all, for a Major Achievement third-tier Martial Arts and Minor Achievement Sword Aura, the reaction from the average person at Jiangnan Training Camp could no longer provide much of an increase.

The only explanation was that there were big fish outside the Ink Dragon Tower.

“Is it Yang Bufan and those two guys beside him?”

Ye Chen’s brows twitched slightly; he already had a rough idea of who those two were.

However, Ye Chen didn’t really care and began to ponder instead.

“I tested the intensity of the seventh floor today. Based on the quality of the Jiangnan Training Camp, a member who wants to clear the seventh floor would need at least a level ten Viscera Tempering cultivation, and would likely need to master a third-tier Martial Arts to Major Achievement or higher.”

“In other words, that Yang Bufan has at least a level ten Viscera Tempering cultivation.”

“There are three weeks left until the duel with Yang Bufan. To be bold with my estimate, Yang Bufan might Breakthrough to the third tier. This means in three weeks, I need to raise my combat power to a level that can contend with a third-tier Martial Artist.”

Ye Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, resting his chin on one hand as he thought.

“It’s not that hard, actually!”

After thinking for a while, Ye Chen’s brows smoothed out, and a confident smile appeared on his face.

“Once I Cultivate for a few more days and clear that seventh floor, plus with a Tier 3 Breakthrough Pill, the difficulty shouldn’t be too high!”

Ye Chen spoke with a smile.

Immediately after, Ye Chen prepared to Cultivate, but before he could enter a meditative state, someone knocked on the courtyard door.

“Who would it be at this hour?”

Ye Chen opened his eyes in confusion, got off the bed, and opened the courtyard gate.

He saw a lean middle-aged man looking at him with a faint smile on his lips.

“You are...”

Ye Chen did not recognize the person’s identity.

The visitor gave Ye Chen a slight smile: “It’s normal that you don’t know my identity since you just arrived at the training camp. Let me introduce myself: Jiang Feng, Head Instructor of the Jiangnan Training Camp!”

Hearing the introduction, Ye Chen’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

The Head Instructor of Jiangnan Training Camp?

Doesn’t that mean the guy in front of him is a fourth-tier Martial Artist?

Ye Chen was somewhat surprised. A fourth-tier Martial Artist was already considered a being that had transcended the level of a Mortal; at this Realm, a Martial Artist’s life force has undergone a leap and sublimation.

Their combat power was even more formidable.

But... why would Jiang Feng come looking for him at this time?

Ye Chen looked at him in confusion. The other man also saw the doubt in Ye Chen’s heart and said with a smile, “Aren’t you going to invite me in to sit for a bit?”

Ye Chen snapped out of it and hurriedly invited Jiang Feng into his room.

Jiang Feng sat on a chair, resting one hand lightly on the table, his fingers tapping the surface rhythmically, making a crisp sound.

Ye Chen watched this scene and, after a moment of silence, said: “Head Instructor, did you come to see me so late just because you wanted to play with the table in my room?”

Jiang Feng: ...

Jiang Feng’s smile instantly froze, and his tapping finger stopped in mid-air.

Ye Chen’s brainless remark completely threw Jiang Feng off his rhythm.

“This guy...”

Jiang Feng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. As a fourth-tier Head Instructor, which member in the training camp didn’t treat him with the utmost respect? Yet Ye Chen seemed somewhat heartless.

However, what Jiang Feng didn’t know was that Ye Chen was actually a bit annoyed by his arrival.

“If you have something to say, just say it. Why act all mysterious here and disturb my cultivation?”

Ye Chen couldn’t help but complain in his heart.

Jiang Feng took a deep breath and stopped beating around the bush.

“From tomorrow onwards, stop going to challenge that Ink Dragon Tower.”

“Why?”

Ye Chen was immediately unwilling. Was he joking?

If he didn’t challenge the Ink Dragon Tower, how would he get the Opportunity from it? How would he harvest the emotions of those people to provide the internal drive for his Martial Arts?

Even though the gains had indeed decreased over the past few days, even mosquito meat is still meat!

Thinking of this, Ye Chen looked at Jiang Feng with an unfriendly gaze.

“What’s with that expression, kid!”

Jiang Feng glared at Ye Chen.

He was a fourth-tier Martial Artist after all, with a certain status in the entire Jiangnan Province, yet Ye Chen, a second-tier Martial Artist, actually dared to look at him with such an expression.

Could it be that he wanted to make a move?

This thought emerged in Jiang Feng’s mind, and it became even more firm when he saw Ye Chen’s unfriendly eyes.

Oh no, this kid really dares to make a move!

Jiang Feng sucked in a breath of cold air.

“This kid... is too reckless. It seems I definitely shouldn’t offend him in the future!”

Jiang Feng thought to himself.

And at this moment, subtitles appeared in Ye Chen’s vision.

【Intimidated a fourth-tier expert, Xuan Tan is incredibly arrogant, proficiency +25!】

【Intimidated a fourth-tier expert, Three Thousand Wind Shadow Steps is incredibly proud, proficiency +25!】

【Intimidated a fourth-tier expert, Nine Heavens Cloud Piercing Sword sneers inwardly, proficiency +10!】

【Intimidated a fourth-tier expert, Sword Aura proficiency +10!】

Looking at the subtitles that suddenly popped up, Ye Chen was stunned, and his inner thoughts became strange.

“Wait, I just intimidated a fourth-tier expert???”

Ten thousand ’whys’ surfaced in Ye Chen’s mind.

“It can work like this too?”

Ye Chen was silent for a moment, then glared at Jiang Feng again, even baring his teeth.

Seeing Ye Chen’s appearance, Jiang Feng fell silent.

The two just stared at each other like that. After a long silence, Jiang Feng finally spoke, breaking the quiet between them.

“Kid, are you a dog?”

...

Ye Chen scratched his head awkwardly, while Jiang Feng’s gaze toward him became increasingly strange.

A moment later, Jiang Feng stopped hiding it and said: “Asking you not to go to the Ink Dragon Tower is because I don’t want to break the atmosphere of the Jiangnan Training Camp.”

Ye Chen muttered: “I’m just clearing a tower, how does that break the atmosphere? I feel the atmosphere is quite good, people here speak so nicely...”

A row of black lines immediately fell from Jiang Feng’s forehead as he said, somewhat exasperated: “It’s destroying the enthusiasm of others! OTHERS! Do you understand!!”

Jiang Feng tapped the table, speaking repeatedly.

Jiang Feng felt that communicating with Ye Chen was simply too difficult.

This guy’s logic was simply abnormal.

If he could, Jiang Feng didn’t even want to stay here any longer, so he said quickly: “Of course, to compensate you, you can go to our Jiangnan Training Camp’s Cloud Domain Space once a week, for a maximum of forty-eight hours each time. How about it?”

Cloud Domain Space!

Ye Chen’s eyes lit up. Having stayed at the Jiangnan Training Camp for over a week, Ye Chen also knew what the Cloud Domain Space was.

It was the fourth-tier Another Dimension owned by the Jiangnan Training Camp.

Cultivating inside, not only was the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi dense, but there was even a chance to encounter some Heaven And Earth Treasures, or even slay the Yao Beasts inside to earn points.

And to enter the Cloud Domain Space, one needed to pay one thousand points for each entry, and the time could not exceed twenty-four hours.

Even so, many people in the Jiangnan Training Camp flocked to enter the Cloud Domain Space. Not to mention that the cultivation efficiency inside was several times that of a Third-tier Spiritual Qi Formation, just the Heaven And Earth Treasures obtained inside, or even the Vicious Beasts killed, even with bad luck, the value would be close to one thousand points.

With good luck... one might even be able to find fourth-tier cultivation resources inside.

This was the benefit of a fourth-tier Another Dimension.

This was also why Great Xia Martial Artists had a love-hate relationship with Another Dimensions.

The love was that Martial Artists could find many opportunities in Another Dimensions; the hate was that the appearance of an Another Dimension, if not suppressed, would also be a crisis for Great Xia.

It could only be said that opportunities often come with dangers.

However, in an Another Dimension that had been suppressed, the opportunities usually outweighed the crises.

“Two days of cultivation in the Cloud Domain Space is equivalent to more than ten days of my usual cultivation, and the difficulty of the seventh floor is so high that I might not necessarily be able to clear it in a short time.”

“This deal...”

Ye Chen licked his lips, looking like a starving person who had seen delicious food.

Jiang Feng glanced at Ye Chen, wanting to stay here even less. He then tossed out a token and said, “You cannot challenge the Ink Dragon Tower for half a month, and at most once within a month. This token is yours.”

“With this token, you can Cultivate in the Cloud Domain Space for two days every week. Can you do it!”

Ye Chen picked up the token without hesitation, speaking as if he couldn’t bear to let it go: “I can! I can! I can! I absolutely can. Head Instructor, you know, I’ve been an obedient child since I was little.”

Although Ye Chen was speaking, his eyes didn’t move away from the token.

Jiang Feng’s mouth twitched again. Finally, he shook his head helplessly and left Ye Chen’s room.

“Take care, Head Instructor! Come back again next time!”

Hearing Ye Chen’s voice from behind, Jiang Feng’s steps faltered. A dignified fourth-tier expert actually almost tripped while walking.

Come back again!

I’ll never come back even if it kills me!

If I come back, I’m a dog!!

Jiang Feng roared in his heart.

Then he walked quickly out of Ye Chen’s room.

As Jiang Feng left, Ye Chen’s gaze also slowly moved away from the token, and he carefully put the token into his pocket.

Only then did he return to the bed with satisfaction.

“Tomorrow I’ll go see what this Cloud Domain Space is all about!”

Ye Chen said happily to himself.
