52: Chapter 52 We're Going to Report
There was no howling wind. No overflowing blood energy. Everything seemed so calm.
But, at the very moment the dark red light converged, crack! crack! The massive floor-to-ceiling bulletproof glass in the living room couldn't withstand this invisible sharpness and instantly shattered into countless fine, spiderweb-like cracks!
The next second, the light solidified. A dark red spear, two meters long and looking as tangible as reality, appeared abruptly in Su Yu's hands!
The spear tip pointed directly at the floor. On the spear body, one could even clearly see extremely ancient and mysterious patterns.
This was not a phantom condensed from blood energy. This was pure will, manifesting reality from the void!
Silence. The entryway of the apartment fell into a deathly silence.
Lin Xiaoxiao's smile, which had originally carried a hint of pride and teasing, froze completely on her face the moment she saw the dark red spear in Su Yu's hand.
Her eyes widened bit by bit. Her pupils contracted violently. Her mouth opened slightly, but she couldn't make a sound. She stared fixedly at the spear in Su Yu's hand, then lowered her head to look at the priceless Martial Emperor-grade weapon, the 'abyssal dragon,' in the box.
Under the absolute pressure emitted by Su Yu's dark red spear, the yuanlong spear in the box actually let out an extremely faint, wailing tremor! All weapons bowed in submission!
"This..." After a full half-minute, Lin Xiaoxiao swallowed with great difficulty. Her voice was trembling uncontrollably.
"This is..." "Shape-Shifting?!" The last two words were almost screamed from her throat!
Su Yu looked at Lin Xiaoxiao's ghost-seeing expression and was slightly taken aback. He casually dissipated the spear made of Spear Intent in his hand. The oppressive feeling in the air vanished instantly.
"Shape-Shifting?" Su Yu raised an eyebrow and asked calmly, "What realm is that?"
He really didn't know. Last night, he had only been focused on spending money, and the system had simulated for ten million years, forcibly compressing this thing into a tangible entity. As for what this was called in the martial arts world, he had no idea.
Looking at Su Yu's calm, breezy, and even slightly confused, innocent expression, Lin Xiaoxiao felt a surge of blood rush straight to her head!
She took a deep breath. Her chest heaved violently. She grabbed her hair tightly with both hands, barely restraining herself from pouncing on this bastard and biting him to death!
"You don't know?!" Lin Xiaoxiao's voice rose an octave, and she looked at Su Yu as if he were a monster. "You don't even know what Shape-Shifting is, yet you managed to pull it off?! Do you have any idea how the Will realms for weapons are classified?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and began to explain. "Martial Will is extremely difficult to master."
"After entering, the first realm is called 'Micro-Perception'! You can condense your will one hundred percent without leaking a single bit, and even a falling flower or a plucked leaf can become a weapon!"
"The second realm is called 'Formless'! The will separates from the physical body; with a single thought, you can kill from the void, impossible to defend against!"
"And the third realm..." Lin Xiaoxiao pointed at Su Yu's hand, her fingers trembling. "Is the 'Shape-Shifting' you just produced!"
"Will interfering with reality, manifesting the tangible from the void!"
"That is a supreme realm that only a very few top-tier martial artists, who have experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood and settled for hundreds of years, could possibly touch! My grandfather only barely touched the threshold of Shape-Shifting at one hundred and twenty years old!"
The more Lin Xiaoxiao spoke, the more she felt like breaking down. She stared intently at Su Yu.
"If I remember correctly," she said, "you only just comprehended the Soul-Suppressing Spear Intent at Weiming Lake yesterday afternoon, right? That's less than twenty-four hours in total!"
"And this morning, you skipped Micro-Perception, skipped Formless, and just went straight to Shape-Shifting for me?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath. Her pure, beautiful eyes were filled with a deep sense of powerlessness.
"You kid... are you even human? Is this right? Is this reasonable?!"
Facing Lin Xiaoxiao's crazy rant, Su Yu stood in place. His expression remained deep and calm. But inside, he had a sudden realization.
"So that's it. Ten million years of paid-for simulation directly skipped Micro-Perception and Formless to reach the third realm. No wonder I felt this thing's lethality was a bit terrifying."
Su Yu calculated silently in his heart. Ten million yuan in exchange for a realm that a top-tier martial artist takes hundreds of years to comprehend. This wave was a huge profit.
But on the surface, Su Yu remained calm and naturally uttered four words: "Had a sudden epiphany."
"Epiphany my foot!" Lin Xiaoxiao completely broke down and cursed. She punched Su Yu's shoulder hard, but the force, hitting Su Yu's body with one thousand points of blood energy, was like a tickle.
Lin Xiaoxiao sighed. This kid's talent was truly a bit perverted! She took several deep breaths, trying to calm her emotions.
"Fine." Lin Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him and pointed at the metal box on the floor. "Although you have comprehended Shape-Shifting and your will can condense into a tangible entity,"
"but pure will consumes a massive amount of energy and cannot carry the one thousand points of Martial Master blood energy inside your body."
"You still need to take this yuanlong spear. A physical weapon combined with Form-Manifesting Spear Intent, a double layering, is the only way to unleash the strongest lethality."
Lin Xiaoxiao extremely domineeringly grabbed the spear from the box and shoved it into Su Yu's arms. "Take it! No refusing!"
Su Yu gripped the yuanlong spear. It was cold and heavy to the touch. A feeling of being connected by blood arose spontaneously. It was indeed a good spear.
"Thank you." Su Yu did not decline again and thanked her solemnly.
"Don't be in such a hurry to thank me." Lin Xiaoxiao clapped her hands, her expression suddenly becoming somewhat serious. She looked at Su Yu, her tone laced with a hint of coldness.
"I came to find you so early today, besides delivering the spear, there is serious business I need to tell you."
"The fact that you were named a special-grade freshman yesterday has already completely blown up on Capital Martial Arts University's internal forum." Lin Xiaoxiao frowned. "When a tree stands above the forest, the wind will surely destroy it."
"Those monsters at Capital Martial Arts University are all arrogant and will absolutely not sit idly by and watch a freshman ride on their heads."
"Who?" Su Yu asked in a calm tone.
"The first is Chen Feng." A trace of disgust flashed in Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes. "A student from the sophomore Practical Combat Academy with three thousand points of blood energy. The Chen family is one of the vassal families of my Lin family, and this kid has been pestering me like a piece of chewing gum."
"He heard yesterday that you came to Kyoto with me. Plus, you snatched the title of special-grade freshman. He has already declared in their sophomore circle that today, when freshmen report, he wants to set some rules for you, a 'country bumpkin' from Jiangcheng."
Su Yu nodded slightly. A second-generation heir fighting for attention. The same old routine. "Small problem."
"There is one more, and that is the real trouble." Lin Xiaoxiao's expression became extremely grave. "Junior student council vice-president, third on the Wind and Cloud Rankings, Lu Tianzong!"
"A half-step grandmaster with blood energy as high as eight thousand points! He has regarded the War God principal as a god since he was a child and feels that you have tarnished the honor of the special-grade freshman."
"Last night, he already had people spread the word. Today, at Weiming Lake, he wants to personally weigh your worth!"
Lin Xiaoxiao sighed. "I was so anxious that I didn't sleep well all night, thinking about how to use the Lin family's connections today to forcibly suppress these two matters. After all, you just arrived; although you are a Martial Master with one thousand points of blood energy, facing old students with three thousand or even eight thousand points, the gap in blood energy is just too large."
Speaking of this, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped. She looked up. Her gaze complexly swept over Su Yu, then over the yuanlong spear in his hand. In her mind, the image of that Form-Manifesting Spear Intent that could tear through the air flashed once more.
"However..." The corners of Lin Xiaoxiao's mouth lifted. The worry and anxiety from before vanished without a trace at this moment. Replaced by a thick sense of anticipation for a show. There was even a trace of sympathy for those two people who were about to come looking for trouble.
"However what?" Su Yu asked.
"Nothing." Lin Xiaoxiao turned around and pushed open the door. Her ponytail traced a joyful arc in the morning sunlight.
"I suddenly feel that they are probably doomed."
Lin Xiaoxiao turned back and gave Su Yu a brilliant smile. "Let's go, special-grade freshman."
"We're going to register. We're going to teach the seniors at Capital Martial Arts University a lesson."
