100: Chapter 100 Breakthrough General
In the cultivation room, the Spiritual Qi was like fog.
Han Ming slowly opened his eyes, feeling the surging liquid True Essence in his Dantian, and a smile curled the corners of his lips.
One-Star Martial General, finally broken through.
"System, open the panel."
[Host: Han Ming]
[Age: 19]
[Blood Qi Value: 10.8 million points]
[Realm: One-Star Martial General]
[Talent: Hunyuan Divine Body (SSS+)]
[True Intent: Wind and Thunder True Intent Level 4, Fire True Intent Level 3, Ice True Intent Level 2, Water True Intent Level 1]
[Cultivation Technique: Ten Thousand Dao Scripture (Immortal Rank)]
[Current Disciple Slots: 5/6]
[Bound Disciples: Lin Fan (9-star Grand Martial Master), Li Xuewei (5-Star Great Martial Master), Gong Shuting (1-Star Great Martial Master), Ye Yunfeng (Four-star Martial Ancestor), Nangong Li (Five-star Martial Ancestor)]
Looking at the System panel, what surprised Han Ming was that Gong Shuting had actually broken through to Great Martial Master; she was worthy of having a Peak Martial Saint as a teacher.
This cultivation speed was no longer slower than Li Xuewei's.
Han Ming cultivated for another hour, completely consolidating his newly broken-through cultivation.
Looking at the 10 million Blood Qi value needed for a Breakthrough to a Two-Star Martial General, he gritted his teeth, took out his identity badge, and sent a message to Teacher Xue Muhan.
"Teacher, are you there? I have something to ask you."
The help provided by his few Disciples was becoming less and less.
Especially Li Xuewei and Gong Shuting; breaking through a small Realm as a Great Martial Master only gave him 100,000 Blood Qi value in feedback.
Relying on them to Breakthrough to a Two-Star Martial General, who knows how long that would take.
More than ten minutes passed, and Teacher Xue Muhan did not reply, but Han Ming was not in a hurry and began to Cultivate himself.
A few more days passed; Lin Fan had also broken through to a One-Star Martial Ancestor, while Li Xuewei and Gong Shuting had both broken through a small Realm, reaching Six-star Great Martial Master and 2-Star Great Martial Master respectively.
However, the hundreds of thousands of Blood Qi points fed back to Han Ming were simply a drop in the bucket, not even as fast as his own cultivation.
Han Ming sighed helplessly.
Just as he was preparing to continue his closed-door cultivation, Teacher Xue Muhan's message came through.
"I just finished my closed-door cultivation. I am at Villa 106 in the teacher's area. Come over!"
Han Ming saw the message and replied with a "Okay," then put away his badge and rushed towards Teacher Xue Muhan's villa.
Villa 106 was deep in the teacher's residential area, and the environment was quieter than the student area.
The defensive Formation at the entrance sensed Han Ming's identity badge and automatically opened a path.
Teacher Xue Muhan was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding an ancient book in her hand.
She was wearing a plain white dress today, with her long hair draped casually over her shoulders, losing some of her usual coldness and gaining a bit of laziness.
"Teacher."
Han Ming stepped forward and bowed respectfully to her.
"Hmm, what's the matter that you suddenly came looking for me?"
Teacher Xue Muhan nodded, not asking Han Ming to sit down.
"Teacher, look—!"
Since Han Ming had made his decision, he did not hesitate. After putting his identity badge into his storage space, he directly released his One-Star Martial General aura without reservation.
"W-what? One-Star Martial General? You... you have actually broken through to a One-Star Martial General?"
Feeling Han Ming's cultivation, the slightly lazy expression on Teacher Xue Muhan's face instantly disappeared, replaced by astonishment.
She stood up in disbelief, not even noticing that the ancient book in her hand had fallen, and stared blankly at Han Ming.
A storm was raging in her heart.
When he first enrolled, he was only an 8-star Grand Martial Master. That was already very Genius. How long has it been?
In just over two months, he had crossed two major Realms from an 8-star Grand Martial Master and broken through to Martial General?
Teacher Xue Muhan felt like it was magical.
As a dignified Peak Martial Emperor, this was the first time she had seen such a Prodigy—a nineteen-year-old One-Star Martial General!
If he hadn't appeared right in front of her, she wouldn't have believed it even if she were beaten to death.
Han Ming looked at her shocked expression, a smug smile curling his lips, and did not disturb her.
After a long while, Teacher Xue Muhan looked at Han Ming and asked, "How, how did you do it?"
Her tone still carried a hint of imperceptible trembling.
Although Han Ming's SSS talent was good, it was impossible to break through to Martial General so quickly. There must be a secret she didn't know.
She had been stuck at the Peak Martial Emperor Realm for more than a year; if she got this secret, would she be able to...
Thinking of this, her eyes looking at Han Ming grew a bit more fervent.
"Teacher, actually I previously obtained a Cultivation Technique above the Divine-Grade. It can ignore talent, and any attribute can be cultivated."
Han Ming briefly explained the matter of the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture.
The reason he dared to tell Teacher Xue Muhan about the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, besides trusting her character, was that he wanted to use the power of the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture to tempt her to verbally agree to become his Disciple.
As long as she was bound, with her Peak Martial Emperor cultivation, once she cultivated the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, she would soon be able to break through to Martial Venerable.
At that time, the amount of Blood Qi value fed back to him would be massive, although he didn't know how much exactly.
Also, as a Peak Martial Emperor mentor, Teacher Xue Muhan must have many good things on her. When the System synchronizes the feedback, would he still lack resources?
It was simply a double harvest of strength and resources.
As for worrying about Teacher Xue Muhan killing him to seize the technique?
That didn't exist.
First, Han Ming trusted her character. In the original story, two years later, Modu Martial Arts University sent dozens of top students to participate in an exchange competition at Jingdu Martial Arts University.
They were killed by people from the Blood Demon Alliance. To protect those students, she almost perished with the Blood Demon Alliance members. If it weren't for her teacher's protective jade pendant, she would have died that time.
Secondly, Han Ming not only possessed the protective jade talisman given by his Great-grandfather but also the Cave Heaven World. Even if Teacher Xue Muhan wanted to kill him for treasure, Han Ming was confident he could retreat unscathed.
The pros outweighed the cons; this risk was worth taking.
"What? Divine... above?"
Teacher Xue Muhan's voice trembled slightly, and her usually cold, beautiful eyes widened.
Divine-Grade Cultivation Techniques; the entire Great Xia Alliance knows of no more than five, and each one is held by those forces standing at the pinnacle of humanity.
As one of the top three universities in Great Xia, Modu Martial Arts University only has the principal cultivating a Divine-Grade technique. But that is just a rumor; she doesn't know if it's true.
She, Teacher Xue Muhan, is known as the youngest Martial Emperor in the history of Modu Martial Arts University, and she only practices a Heaven Rank Medium Grade technique!
And Han Ming said he is practicing something above Divine-Grade.
"Do... do you know what you are saying?"
Teacher Xue Muhan took a deep breath, trying to make her voice sound calmer, but her slightly trembling fingertips betrayed the stormy waves in her heart.
"You must never tell anyone about this. You should understand the principle that a person with a treasure invites trouble."
"I know." Han Ming looked at her, his tone serious, "That's why I only told you, Master."
"Hmm, alright. In the future, never mention this to anyone, not even the Han Family. Also, try to hide your Realm. You should understand the principle that the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be blown down by the wind."
Teacher Xue Muhan felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this. She didn't expect Han Ming to trust her so much, but she still put on a stern face and warned him seriously.
"Hmm, I know. However, the reason I told you this today, Teacher, is mainly because I want to pass this technique on to you."
Han Ming nodded. Seeing Teacher Xue Muhan say this, he was very satisfied in his heart; she really didn't let him down.
"Y-you... what did you say? You want to pass this technique above Divine-Grade to me?"
Teacher Xue Muhan thought she had misheard and asked for confirmation in disbelief.
"Hmm, but... there is one condition. I don't know if you can accept it, Teacher."
Han Ming nodded, then pretended to hesitate for a moment before speaking.
"W-what condition?"
Seeing Han Ming's appearance, Teacher Xue Muhan misunderstood something, her face flushed red, and her gaze subconsciously avoided Han Ming's line of sight.
She had lived for over thirty years, and this was the first time she had shown this posture in front of a man, and this man was still her nominal Disciple.
If he made an excessive request, should she agree or not?
Teacher Xue Muhan's expression was tangled, but that was a technique above Divine-Grade!
If the news were released, she didn't know how many people would go crazy for it. Forget one condition, even if it were a hundred or a thousand conditions, people would fight like crazy for it.
PS: Thanks to everyone for the requests for updates and for powering up with love!
