183: Twin sisters

"Directly reshaping my body—is this what the Controlled Body Tempering Technique is like? It's just like something out of a fantasy novel."

Li Ziyu clenched his fist, looking at his fair, jade-like hand. He then walked to the full-length mirror in the room and examined the changes in himself.

In the mirror was a figure 1.95 meters tall, with long, ink-black hair, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes.

The figure's skin looked tough, and his muscles were smooth and full of power.

His entire body seemed to have stepped out of a painting.

"Not bad. I look much handsomer than before. If this were my previous life, I could earn tens of millions a year just by my looks."

Li Ziyu looked at himself in the mirror, a satisfied expression on his face.

"Now, let's try my strength!"

"Bang!"

Li Ziyu lightly threw another punch into the air. With a loud bang, a gust of wind swept through, scattering the items in the room into disarray.

"Hmm, although I haven't done a combat power test, based on the effect alone, my strength has increased by at least ten times!"

"Moreover, after the Body Tempering Technique advanced to the Controlled level, my control over my body is even stronger than before!"

"I need to find an opportunity to test my true strength now.

I wonder if I can fight opponents at the Grandmaster of the Seventh Level."

Li Ziyu thought to himself.

After his strength improved, he picked up his communication bracelet, found Yu Ningmo's avatar, and called her back:

"Hello, Li Ziyu, I finally got in touch with you."

Yu Ningmo on the other end of the phone was clearly relieved after receiving Li Ziyu's call:

"I just received news that the Seed Training Camp has started early. It begins today at 5 PM."

"5 PM? That's only three hours away? So urgent?"

Li Ziyu was surprised.

Originally, the Seed Training Camp was scheduled to start three days later, and Li Ziyu had planned to find a place to test his strength.

Now it seemed there was no time.

"Yes, I also received the notification yesterday, but I couldn't reach you then.

The Seed Training Camp is located at Military Base No. 6 in South City, nine hundred kilometers from Modu. You won't make it by high-speed rail now, so I'll send the school's airship to pick you up directly. Send me your address."

Yu Ningmo was decisive, so Li Ziyu sent her the hotel address.

After chatting for a while longer, Yu Ningmo finally said:

"The people from Ji Dao Martial Hall will definitely target you in this Seed Training Camp, and not just them; I estimate the people from Beyond Martial Hall will also target you.

But fortunately, they won't dare to act openly. You just focus on cultivating well inside and don't need to pay attention to them.

This Seed Training Camp is jointly organized by the officials and the two major Martial Halls. Its purpose is to enhance the strength of the proud talents of Great Xia.

There are many advanced cultivation resources and auxiliary equipment inside that are not available elsewhere, and the teaching staff is incomparable to the outside world. It's extremely helpful for personal strength improvement!

You don't need to worry about Ji Dao Martial Hall and Beyond Martial Hall inside; just focus on cultivating."

"Okay, I understand."

Li Ziyu's eyes flickered as he listened. He didn't need to worry about the two major Martial Halls?

Heh, he did want to cultivate well, but would the people from the two major Martial Halls let him off?

"Alright, I know you're not someone who would suffer losses, so I won't say more. I'll wait for your good news in the graduation competition."

Yu Ningmo gave a few more instructions, then ended the call.

Li Ziyu checked the time. He still had two hours, enough to go downstairs and eat something.

He hadn't eaten well in the Martial Saint Secret Realm these past few days, and his mouth was bland.

Coincidentally, he was currently in Jingnan's university town, with many delicious food options nearby.

Downstairs.

A nicely decorated Sichuan cuisine restaurant.

Li Ziyu ordered a pot of wine and some signature dishes, then began to drink leisurely.

"Handsome, are you a martial arts student from nearby?"

At this time, there were many other customers in the restaurant. At the table next to Li Ziyu were a pair of ponytail sisters, who looked seventeen or eighteen years old, likely students from a nearby university.

Seeing Li Ziyu order so many dishes by himself, the ponytail girl who looked like the older sister smiled, revealing a small dimple, and asked Li Ziyu curiously.

"Yes."

Li Ziyu smiled and nodded. Near this university town, there were not only Martial Arts Universities but also regular cultural universities.

In his perception, these twin sisters were clearly ordinary people and should be students from a nearby cultural university.

"As expected, only a Warrior could eat so much food in one sitting.

Handsome, with your appetite, you must at least have the strength of a First Grade Warrior!

So amazing!"

The younger sister, who had a tear mole at the corner of her eye, also showed a hint of admiration when she heard Li Ziyu's answer.

Martial Arts University students had a much brighter future than those from cultural universities.

After graduating, cultural students might earn at most a few hundred thousand a year working for large companies, perhaps two hundred thousand if they were good.

But Martial Arts University students, after graduation, were at least Second-Level Martial Artists, and the allowances Second-Level Martial Artists received each month alone were more than that amount.

"Handsome, how about adding me on Flying Letter?"

The older sister among the two girls looked at Li Ziyu with admiration, her chest swaying as she stood up and walked to Li Ziyu, gracefully offering her phone.

The younger sister, who was seated, also blushed slightly, thought for a moment, and walked towards Li Ziyu with her long legs.

"Tsk, it's good to be a Warrior. Even when eating out, beautiful women want your Flying Letter. I'm so envious."

"Yeah, I heard some Warriors don't do anything else, and the subsidies they receive from the Martial Arts Association alone amount to millions every year.

Alas, unlike us, we might not even earn a million in this lifetime."

Many other students were eating in the hall, and they all looked envious at this scene.

However, a few students at one table, dressed well and clearly from wealthy families, looked at Li Ziyu with a hint of disdain.

One of them, a yellow-haired youth with an earring in his right ear, sneered with a dismissive curl of his lips:

"A bunch of country bumpkins who haven't seen the world, acting as if every Warrior can receive a million-dollar annual subsidy after graduation.

Some weaker martial arts students, after graduating, still have to risk their lives to earn resources for cultivation?

Some even end up guarding the gates of residential areas."

"Hey, Huang Shao, you're absolutely right. The security guard in our residential area seems to be a First Grade Warrior. And you know what, having a Warrior guard our gate really makes us feel safe."

"Haha."

Their voices were not low, clearly intended for the twin sisters.

The younger sister among them rolled her eyes speechlessly, silently complaining.

Are we interested in this handsome guy's strength?

We're interested in his looks, okay?

"Later, I have something to do and need to leave first."

Just then, a shadow suddenly cast over the entrance of the restaurant. Li Ziyu looked up and saw that the airship sent to pick him up had arrived.

With that, he stood up and left the restaurant.

On the airship hovering above the restaurant, a young man in combat uniform with a powerful aura lowered the boarding ladder to Li Ziyu and quickly said:

"Student Li Ziyu, the Seed Training Camp starts in one hour and forty minutes. We need to hurry, or we won't make it in time."

"Okay!"

Li Ziyu nodded. Without using the thrown-down ladder, he pushed off with his feet, launching himself like a cannonball directly into the airship.

He disappeared into the horizon.

"Hiss! That airship just now, it seemed to be from Modu Martial Arts University. So, that young man just now was a student from Modu Martial Arts University??"

"Damn! The Seed Training Camp, if I remember correctly, only the top one hundred most outstanding young talents in the entire country can enter the Seed Training Camp. That young man just now can actually join the Seed Training Camp?!"

Inside the restaurant, only a group of students remained, staring at each other in bewilderment.

And the ponytail twin sisters, covering their small mouths, were utterly shocked.

As for the wealthy young men who had been ridiculing Li Ziyu, they were so scared they collapsed directly onto the floor.
