151: Promotion to level 4 warrior!

Li Ziyu, you should also pay attention to balancing work and rest when cultivating.

There's still a week until we go to the Martial Saint Secret Realm.

And if nothing unexpected happens, after you come out of the Martial Saint Secret Realm, you'll be heading to the Seed Training Camp.

At that time, you probably won't have much time to rest for a long while.

You can take this time to relax a bit.

Yu Ningmo, who was nearby, heard their conversation and couldn't help but say to Li Ziyu.

To be honest, this was the first time she had encountered a student with such great talent who was also so diligent.

The achievements Li Ziyu had made were absolutely inseparable from his usual hard work.

Sun Qiming, who was nearby, listened and nodded repeatedly.

“That's right! Principal Yu has spoken, Yu-ge, pay more attention to rest!”

Li Ziyu smiled and didn't express an opinion, and Yu Ningmo, seeing this, didn't say anything more.

She was just mentioning it casually.

The specific decision was up to Li Ziyu himself.

After exchanging a few more words, Li Ziyu returned to the second floor of his villa.

He began to take stock of his gains this time.

The reward for first place in the National Youth Martial Arts University League this time.

There was a storage bracelet.

And one billion great xia currency.

As well as a certificate to claim a full set of Level 5 equipment.

Including the most important five hundred grams of mystic spirit marrow, all neatly placed in the storage bracelet.

Because it was unknown who would ultimately win first place, the Martial Arts Association did not issue finished Level 5 equipment, but rather gave out redemption vouchers.

At that time, with the redemption certificate, one could go to a shop opened by the Great Xia official to freely choose a set of Level 5 advanced equipment.

“It seems I'll have to go out later to choose a set of Level 5 equipment.”

“It's best if there's a ready-made one.”

“Also, a Mental Power Master's Battle Skill, I need to learn one.”

After deciding on his next steps, Li Ziyu picked up the storage bracelet.

The space in this storage bracelet was much larger than the one he originally wore.

It was a full twenty cubic meters!

Li Ziyu took off his old storage bracelet and transferred the items inside to the new storage bracelet, then put it on.

Then he put it on his hand.

With a soft 'ding', the silver-white storage bracelet fit snugly on Li Ziyu's wrist.

With the storage bracelet on, Li Ziyu turned his gaze to the most anticipated prize.

mystic spirit marrow.

On the airship, he had already asked Principal Yu Ningmo and knew that it was an extract from a Level 7 fierce beast.

Extremely precious and rare.

It was simply unobtainable on the market.

It could help warriors above Level 6 to enhance their vital energy and blood.

The effect was a hundred times better than Dragon Marrow Fluid!

One hundred grams of mystic spirit marrow was enough for a Level 6 Martial Artists to use for a year!

Five hundred grams, if used properly, could even help a Six-Level Beginner Warrior break through to Six-Level Intermediate.

It could be said to be a peerless treasure.

“Principal Yu said it's best to divide the mystic spirit marrow into one-gram portions, then dilute it with water before consuming it.

However, with my current physique, I should be able to handle ten grams each time, right?”

Li Ziyu carefully examined the transparent jade bottle in his hand, which contained the mystic spirit marrow.

Under the illumination of the living room light, the mystic spirit marrow flowed like mercury in the jade bottle, sparkling with faint luminescence.

It looked like a brilliant gem.

Li Ziyu thought for a moment, pulled out the stopper, and poured ten grams into a container.

He didn't even dilute it with water, and drank it all in one gulp.

He had already completed the perfect bone tempering of his entire body, coupled with the Micro-level Great Sun Body Tempering Method's enhancement.

His physique had long since become far stronger than that of an ordinary Level 6 Martial Artists.

Although Li Ziyu hadn't tried it.

But he felt that, in terms of physical strength alone.

Even a Six-Level Intermediate Warrior, or even a High-level Warrior, might not be able to compare to him!

As soon as the mystic spirit marrow entered his mouth.

Li Ziyu felt as if he had swallowed a mouthful of hot charcoal, a burning sensation traveling all the way down.

A scorching heat, like molten lava, exploded within his body!

It was like swallowing a sun whole!

Li Ziyu's entire body turned hot and red, like a cooked shrimp.

His heart also pounded like a pile driver, thumping wildly.

And as the medicinal power of the mystic spirit marrow spread throughout his blood, the frequency of his heart's pounding seemed to subtly increase, getting faster and faster.

“Great Sun Body Tempering Method!”

Li Ziyu didn't hesitate and immediately began to circulate the Great Sun Body Tempering Method.

A moment later…

Li Ziyu let out a long breath of turbid air.

“Hoo… As expected of mystic spirit marrow that even Level 6 Martial Artistss need to dilute before using, its medicinal power is indeed potent!

Just ten grams made me feel like I had consumed dozens of bottles of Dragon Marrow Fluid!”

“Open the system panel.”

Li Ziyu's mind stirred, and he opened the system panel.

Name: Li Ziyu.

Realm: Third-Level Martial Artist (+)

Combat Skills: Micro-level Blade Technique, Subtle Body Movement, Micro-level Great Sun Body Tempering Method, Peak Level Natural Breathing Method, Peak Level Crystal Meditation Technique, Peak Level Ninefold Thunder Blade, Peak-Level Thunderclap Slash (+).

System: Martial God System.

Function 1: Can absorb all things to increase vital energy and blood.

Function 2: Can devour Battle Skills and inherit Battle Skill levels.

Other functions are to be discovered by the system itself.

“My realm can be improved!”

“And Thunderclap Slash can also be upgraded to Micro-level!”

The breakthrough in his realm was within Li Ziyu's expectations.

Although he hadn't directly gained vital energy and blood in this National Youth Martial Arts University League.

However, after the several matches in this competition, and the battles in the final fierce beast survival competition, he had a deeper understanding of martial arts.

Sometimes, when a realm is elevated, comprehension and vital energy and blood are equally important.

He was already on the verge of a breakthrough, and now with the assistance of the mystic spirit marrow's medicinal power, it was entirely within his expectations to break through his realm.

“After the promotion, I will be a Grade 4 Martial Artist, and a Grade 4 Martial Artist can temper their organs.”

“Through the nourishment of vital energy and blood to the internal organs, not only can the internal organs be trained to be tough.

Moreover, when practiced to a profound level, a protective film can be formed on the surface of the internal organs to resist impact.”

“At that time, even if the body suffers severe internal injuries, it can recover quickly and will not cause irreversible damage.”

Li Ziyu recalled the introduction of Grade 4 Martial Artists in the martial arts textbook.

As the saying goes, 'external training of sinews, skin, and bones; internal cultivation of essence, qi, and spirit.'

Third-Level Martial Artist's bone tempering can be seen as external cultivation.

It enhances the warrior's strength and defense.

However, it cannot temper the internal organs within the body.

If the internal organs are attacked, it is extremely easy to leave irreversible damage.

And a Grade 4 Martial Artist's organ tempering can be seen as internal cultivation.

Not only can it make the warrior's internal organs tough, but it can also make the organs burst with stronger vitality.

While enhancing the warrior's internal defense, it can also increase the warrior's endurance and stamina!

Thinking about it, Li Ziyu didn't hesitate at all:

“System, upgrade my realm!”

Third-Level Martial Artist -> Grade 4 Martial Artist!

With the breakthrough, in an instant, Li Ziyu's whole body trembled.

His entire body's muscles began to rapidly swell, and from the outside, he appeared to have visibly thickened by a circle.

In another instant.

Accompanied by muffled thuds like drumbeats, Li Ziyu's swollen muscles rapidly contracted inwards.

In the blink of an eye, it was as if nothing had ever changed, and he returned to his original physique.

It was as if it was his illusion.

But Li Ziyu knew this was not an illusion.

Just a few short seconds ago, he did feel his entire body's muscles expand and then contract.

After thinking for a moment, Li Ziyu walked to the mirror.
