66: Zhang Yueshan is promoted and enters the inner city
The moment they entered Mo City, Li Mingxuan and the other two vigilantly scanned their surroundings, constantly guarding against sudden danger.
Fortunately, their luck seemed to be good. There didn't seem to be many split bodies nearby, only some dilapidated houses.
All three breathed a sigh of relief. At least they weren't attacked immediately. "Let's first scout the surroundings and look for split bodies at the Peak of the Martial Artist Realm or just entering the Martial Warrior Realm. We can't handle the rest yet."
"Okay!"
So the three cautiously advanced along the city wall. This was the edge of Mo City, much safer compared to the center.
And in a place the three hadn't noticed, Li Wuji appeared on the top of a tall building at some point, watching them.
He just quietly watched the three of them, or rather, Li Mingxuan, who was at the very front.
Moments later, a mass of black liquid appeared behind him. Immediately after, this mass of black liquid transformed into Yue Shan's appearance and knelt on one knee, saluting Li Wuji.
"Greetings, Master!"
Li Wuji withdrew his gaze and looked at Yue Shan. Yue Shan's aura had clearly reached the sixth level of the Martial Master Realm.
"This is for you. It should be enough for you to break through to the Late Stage of the Martial General Realm."
He handed the storage ring he had prepared beforehand to the other party. Yue Shan took it with both hands but didn't check it. Instead, his tone became even more respectful, "Thank you for Master's grace."
"Get up first," Li Wuji didn't say anything more. He watched Li Mingxuan for a while longer. At this moment, the latter had just killed a split body at the second level of the Martial Warrior Realm.
"Mingxuan is growing quite well. Have there been any changes?"
"Apologies, Master. Since the young master entered the Great Wall Academy, this subordinate has voluntarily gone into hibernation. Unless the young master enters a life-or-death crisis, this subordinate cannot detect the young master's actions."
Yue Shan lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Li Wuji, while Li Wuji seemed not surprised. "It seems there are quite a few strong individuals within the Great Wall Academy."
Li Wuji's knowledge could now be said to have increased significantly. Above the Martial General Realm, there were Martial Grandmasters, Martial Lords, and even Martial Kings who reached the level of Peak powerhouses!
With Yue Shan's current strength at the Martial Master Realm, if there was even a slight unusual movement, he would likely be detected. At that time, Li Mingxuan wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.
"Yes, Master. This subordinate alone has sensed the presence of two beings above the Wu Zong Realm in the Great Wall Academy."
"Then just ensure Mingxuan's safety. Find a suitable opportunity to teach him some Martial Skills and techniques to exchange for resources for cultivation.
I will find time to have Shadow and the others send you some resources. Once he grows strong enough to protect himself, you can regain your freedom."
"Master, you are too kind. This subordinate is willing to swear to protect the young master to the death for Master!"
Hearing this, Li Wuji didn't say anything more. He would arrange everything properly.
"Go back. The two people beside him can be tested using this opportunity."
Yue Shan saluted and withdrew again, then transformed into a black shadow and disappeared on the spot.
Li Wuji's eyes flickered. He glanced at Li Mingxuan below again, a smile playing on his lips, and then he drifted away with the wind.
Below, Li Mingxuan and the other two, having dealt with several more waves of split bodies, found a place to rest for a while.
"Brother Xuan, coming here was really the right decision. How long has it been and we've already gotten nearly a hundred points."
Zhao Qianjun said with a hint of excitement. Li Mingxuan also showed a smile. "If we just keep advancing like this slowly, our gains should also be considerable."
Just as he finished speaking, his body trembled, his expression changed slightly but quickly recovered. "Let's rest properly first. We'll set off again in ten minutes."
After speaking, he composed himself, because just now he had sensed that Yue Shan, who had been sleeping in his body, had awakened.
"You're awake?"
Li Mingxuan was a little surprised. After all, the other party had been in a deep sleep ever since he entered the Great Wall Academy. He didn't expect him to wake up at this time.
"Mm, I've increased my strength a bit!"
Yue Shan also replied with a buzzing sound. He had indeed broken through just now and had now broken through to the Martial General Realm First Level.
Only a third of the rare metals in the storage ring had been consumed. If all of it was consumed, Yue Shan estimated he could break through to the mid-stage Martial General.
"What's your current strength?"
"Martial General Realm, I guess. Interested in doing something big?"
Li Mingxuan was only slightly surprised by this, not shocked. In his opinion, the guy inside his body was definitely not ordinary in strength, but he hadn't expected him to reach the Martial General Realm so easily.
"Do something big? What?"
"There's a corpse of a Martial General Realm fifth level inside. Find him and take his storage ring. I can sense that the other party definitely has good stuff."
"You can sense the situation inside?" Li Mingxuan was truly surprised this time. He knew that the Martial General Realm's perception range was very large, but he didn't expect it to be so large that it could cover the entire Mo City.
"Barely. I don't need to say much about what's in a Martial General Realm's storage ring, right?"
"That's true, but with my current strength, if I go in and run into a Late Stage Martial Warrior Realm, won't I be finished?"
"Don't worry, I'll help you."
A glint flashed in Li Mingxuan's eyes instantly. This was exactly what he wanted to hear. However, Yue Shan naturally wouldn't help him for free.
"Eighty-twenty split!"
"I get eighty, you get twenty?"
"What do you think?"
"How about thirty?"
"Just twenty. Afterward, I'll give you a Martial Skill or technique."
"Deal!"
Li Mingxuan immediately stopped hesitating. After all, he had only cultivated the previous Vajra Body Tempering Fist to the fourth level, and it had already greatly increased his strength.
And this level of technique would require tens of thousands of points even within the academy. Even if he gave all the gains from this time to Yue Shan, he would be willing.
"The level of the technique or Martial Skill will be determined by the value of that storage ring."
Li Mingxuan didn't say anything. Instead, he stood up and looked at Zhao Qianjun and Qin Tian. "I'm going in. You guys just kill the split bodies in the outer areas!"
Seeing Li Mingxuan stand up, the two who had also been preparing to stand up showed a look of astonishment upon hearing this. "Brother Xuan, inside there..."
Zhao Qianjun wanted to say something but was held back by Qin Tian. He nodded solemnly at Li Mingxuan. "Then be careful, Brother Xuan. We'll be active in this area."
Seeing the two like this, Li Mingxuan also sighed. It wasn't that he didn't want to bring these two.
It was just that after going in, it was full of dangers. Even with Yue Shan's help, he couldn't guarantee that he could protect the two of them at all times, and Yue Shan's existence was not easy to expose right now.
"You guys be careful. I'll come back and find you after I've finished dealing with things inside."
"Brother Xuan, you be careful too!"
Li Mingxuan nodded and then ran towards the city. Qin Tian and Zhao Qianjun watched him leave.
"There are Martial Masters, and even Martial General Realm split bodies inside the city. Are you really letting Brother Xuan go in?"
Zhao Qianjun asked with concern. Qin Tian just quietly glanced at him.
"Do you think you can change something Brother Xuan has decided?"
"Sigh~"
Hearing this, Zhao Qianjun fell silent for a moment and sighed deeply. Qin Tian's tone was firm. "Don't worry, Brother Xuan isn't the reckless type. Since he decided to go in, he naturally has a certain level of confidence."
As he spoke, he walked outwards. "Brother Xuan has his own trump cards, plus terrifying talent. If the two of us don't work harder, we'll only drag Brother Xuan down."
Zhao Qianjun's eyes flickered and he quickly followed. "Old Qin, dare to go hunting Martial Warriors with me?"
Qin Tian looked at Zhao Qianjun with some surprise, then revealed a strong fighting spirit. "Hahahaha, let's go!"
