704: Research new skills for Wu

Another two hours passed.

Yan Yan and the Supernatural Bureau behind them fell into contemplation, watching this seemingly endless battle.

In the records, Maple Leaf and the Otherworld Monster’s various data were constantly “updating,” and their evaluations were continuously rising.

They were becoming increasingly terrifying, and with the aftershocks generated by their battle… at this rate, if given enough time, let alone one city, it felt like an entire province wouldn't be enough to destroy.

Yan Yan and his team had been recalled; they were to go about their business.

As for the Supernatural Bureau, they just needed to have people rotate shifts and continuously “observe.”

“Still fighting?” In the Cross-World Group, Chen Mu’s chat group, seeing Maple Leaf’s live stream, he glanced at it and found that Maple Leaf was still battling the Otherworld Monster, which made him click his tongue in surprise.

“Maple Leaf has plenty of stamina… With such a good sparring partner, she could probably fight for a day and a night without issue,” Yi Xin said with a glance. “Anyway, she doesn’t have anything else going on, so let her be.”

“I’m quite envious, having such a great sparring partner.” Wu was also a battle maniac, but now he was more “abandoning martial arts for scholarly pursuits,” turning instead to research with Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng, delving into “ultimate truths.”

However, his fundamental reason for doing so was actually somewhat different from Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng’s.

Unlike Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng, who were purely driven by “passion,” his goal was to profit from it, earn more source points, and thus make himself stronger!

Through the Cross-World Group, whether it was talent or improvements in various aspects.

His goal was to become stronger!

Becoming stronger and more talented would actually play a positive role in this area of research.

And the better the research was done, the more it would actually help his strength.

The two complemented each other, forming a virtuous cycle, which was the reason Wu had always participated in the research.

As for Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng, it was pure passion, but the feedback they received was actually even greater!

Their strength was also continuously improving.

After all, they consistently ranked in the first tier of the Cross-World Group, second only to Clarissa; their level needs no further explanation.

“If you have nothing to do, come to the dueling arena, and I’ll fight you,” Yi Xin said to Wu.

“…” Wu looked speechless. “I don’t want to be abused.”

“It’s a spar!” Yi Xin said to Wu.

“No. This is completely different from what Maple Leaf is doing,” Wu refused again.

“Alright then~” Yi Xin shrugged; he was just saying it anyway. “By the way, we talked about upgrading your Fight Art before, and you’re also researching it with us. It’s almost ready.”

“Hmm, this progress is quite good; it’s about 80% complete,” Wu nodded slightly. This project was originally done by Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng, but he joined in midway later.

This way, once the research is complete, he can better grasp and understand this Fight Art specifically designed to upgrade his own Fight Art.

And most importantly, this way, once the research is complete, he won’t need to “pay.”

Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng also knew this, and it was also because Wu had this ability that they actively invited him to join.

Wu had thought about giving Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng source points, but they refused.

According to Yi Xin: “If it weren’t for the Cross-World Group’s restrictions, Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng could actually do many things for everyone in the group.

But the Cross-World Group has mandatory requirements and regulations in this regard, which is why everyone needs to spend source points.

However, you also know that Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng are not trying to earn money from the Cross-World Group members; everyone is family, and Yi Xin has always believed this.

So, they always offer the lowest price set by the Cross-World Group to the members.”

Everyone in the Cross-World Group actually saw this and knew Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng’s attitude and actions.

At the same time, this was also one of the main reasons why everyone respected Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng, not just because of their strength.

If Clarissa represented absolute martial strength, the strongest “backing” and “support” of the entire Cross-World Group.

Then Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng were their respected “scientists,” and scientists who also possessed first-tier strength, capable of truly “benefiting” everyone.

If Clarissa’s strength weren’t so overwhelmingly superior, and she was also the Administrator and Big Sister Head, it’s estimated that Yi Xin and Lin Zifeng’s status would be even above Clarissa’s!

However, Clarissa was a pure stat monster!

Her strength was severely broken, completely overwhelming.

Moreover, Clarissa was not an Administrator who did nothing.

The fact that everyone could get along like “family” was due to Clarissa being the most important key reason.

It was also Clarissa who started it, thus forming such a trend.

This was the cause!

That’s why everyone sincerely called Clarissa Big Sister Head.

“At this rate, it should be out this month,” Wu mused.

“Yeah! Then your Fight Art can be upgraded, and it’ll be a big upgrade. Do you have a name for the new Fight Art?” Yi Xin smiled and said to Wu, “Think of a name in advance.”

“Hmm… nothing good comes to mind, let’s just stick with Fight Art,” Wu shook his head slightly, seemingly unwilling to expend brain cells on this.

“Oh, come on! Don’t be like that, this is also a process, a ‘seal of approval’ for the new Fight Art, isn’t it? How about I come up with a name! Let’s call it ‘Primeval True Martial Fight Art’! It just so happens that you exchanged for the ‘True Martial Dao Body’ and ‘Primeval True Body,’ right? Combining them gives this name, and these two Fight Arts are also based on your two talents, integrated, strengthened, and deeply researched on the foundation of Fight Art,” Yi Xin said to Wu.

“Hmm, okay, let’s go with your name,” Wu nodded and agreed, without any hesitation.

“Yi Xin, what are you planning to do next? If you’re free, can you help me upgrade my Fight Art too?” Maple Leaf popped up and interjected at this moment; the battle didn't prevent her from lurking and chatting.

“Of course!” Yi Xin readily agreed. “But it will have to wait until Wu’s Fight Art is finished.”

Maple Leaf’s Fight Art was also researched by him, originally the customized Divine Martial Heart Sutra, then the upgraded version Divine Martial Heart Sutra - Awakening, corresponding to Maple Leaf’s “Awakening” ability! Which was the “Awakening” skill that came with the Fight Art.

“That was a long time ago, wasn’t it? You seemed to have bought it for 500 million source points back then. This time, we should be able to get it to over 5 billion source points; you should prepare your source points in advance,” Yi Xin said to Maple Leaf.

Their research capabilities were now incomparable to before.

After all, the customized Fight Art, Divine Martial Sky Opening, that they later created for Maple Leaf cost her 10 billion source points to purchase!

“Okay, I have the source points now, perfectly prepared,” Maple Leaf said to Yi Xin. “Taking a long time is fine, but try to make it even better! Given your current level. I can even accept 10 billion or more source points!”
