Chapter 0083: End-of-Term Assessment

The others were invited into the Blue Spirit Star Palace to discuss the inheritance of martial arts.

Regarding this matter, Qin Yun felt it wasn't that simple; there would definitely be an exchange of interests involved.

President Zhang accompanied Qin Yun and Yang Shiyue back to Hualing Martial Arts Academy.

As the three of them were on their way back, Qin Yun suddenly said, "President, I found the Colorless Fruit on Wei Xuankun."

Upon hearing this, President Zhang abruptly stopped.

Ding Tianchun was a loyal and honest man, kind to everyone and full of responsibility. Now he and his son had been poisoned, almost losing their lives.

President Zhang asked in a solemn voice, "During the last training session, you were with Teacher Ding. What exactly happened? There must be more to his injury than meets the eye!"

"Teacher Ding and I encountered a Swift Ape, a beast with an owner, which Teacher Ding later killed," Qin Yun sighed. "Teacher Ding said the matter wasn’t simple, so he didn’t let me talk about it and gave me the Swift Ape."

"Do you have the Beast Control Ring?" President Zhang's face turned cold, as he had already thought of many things.

Qin Yun took out the Beast Control Ring and handed it over.

President Zhang looked at it and exclaimed angrily, "Sure enough, it’s that old scoundrel Master Wei! Let's go back and detoxify Teacher Ding first!"

Yang Shiyue showed concern and asked, "President, did you leave someone to look after them when you came here?"

President Zhang replied, "Of course, our strongest person from Hualing Martial Arts Academy is watching over them. Don’t worry!"

The strongest person at Hualing Martial Arts Academy was naturally the rarely seen Chief President, who was said to be in seclusion for cultivation.

Now that he had finally emerged, it was likely due to the appearance of the Blue Spirit Star Palace.

...

Detoxification required some time. After handing over the Colorless Fruit to President Zhang, Qin Yun and Yang Shiyue returned to their small house in the bamboo grove.

"You still have one Purple Gold Flying Soul Stone. Although you can't use it now, don't sell it," Yang Shiyue earnestly instructed Qin Yun.

"Also, don’t tell anyone about us obtaining the Flying Soul Stone. The descent of the Blue Spirit Star Palace must indicate some problem, leading to such a precious item flying out. I suspect there was internal strife... In any case, the descent of the Blue Spirit Star Palace has greatly affected the situation here."

After saying this, she hurriedly entered her room to cultivate.

Qin Yun also rushed back to his room and took out the crumpled paper ball Du Yayuan had thrown at him.

Although the paper ball was wrinkled, it was clear that both sheets were very old.

Each sheet contained a peculiar incantation.

He recognized every word, but when combined, they made no sense, leaving him unable to decipher their meaning!

"Shui Yihui said this was a martial art created by Martial King Lan Xiao to tease them, passed down for thousands of years. Could it really just be teasing?" Qin Yun repeated the two incantations, frowning deeply. "I don’t understand at all!"

"Xing Ming, Yang Guan, Xin Gu, Shen Ning Xin Xing... what on earth do these mean?" He recited the first sentence, pondering it but failing to grasp its meaning, only seeing a connection to stars and the sun.

"Forget it for now, I’ll go cultivate!"

Qin Yun cultivated the Heart Sutra, one of the three major sutras, still lacking the Soul Sutra. He needed to complete all three to advance to the sixth level of Martial Body.

To refine the Soul Sutra, he needed to use his mental energy, which consumed a lot of it.

Fortunately, he had the Nine Yang Divine Soul, allowing him to absorb Nine Yang Qi to quickly recover his mental energy.

Two days passed, and he felt his mental energy had improved slightly, but he was still far from refining the Soul Sutra.

"The higher up, the harder it gets! No wonder young people who reach the sixth level of Martial Body are highly valued; it’s not easy at all." Qin Yun sighed.

For example, Ding Tianchun, as a teacher, was only at the seventh level of Martial Body, and many martial artists reached the seventh level only in middle age or older!

Thus, cultivating martial arts required high talent.

Like Yang Shiyue, who was now at the ninth level of Martial Body.

Xiao Yuelan was already at the eighth level, and Qin Zhengfeng had reached the seventh level. Their futures were promising.

"Don’t rush; it’s easy to fall into a state of obsession!"

Qin Yun took a few deep breaths, then left his room to clear his mind, something Yang Shiyue often advised him to do.

Yang Shiyue was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, wearing a blue dress, her legs long and slender, her waist slim, her dress fluttering in the wind, making her posture captivating and delightful to watch.

It was the first time Qin Yun saw Yang Shiyue practicing swordsmanship, and he marveled at her grace, watching with amusement.

He laughed, "Teacher, your swordsmanship is very agile. It seems you’re in a good mood!"

Yang Shiyue stopped, sat down at a stone table, and giggled, "Of course!"

After obtaining the Purple Gold Flying Soul Stone, her Platinum Moon Martial Soul had successfully advanced to the Purple Gold Moon Martial Soul, significantly enhancing her strength. How could she not be in a good mood?

"Teacher, can you understand these incantations?" Qin Yun took out the two crumpled papers.

Yang Shiyue glanced at them and shook her head. "I can’t understand them. Are you serious? These incantations clearly aren’t proper cultivation techniques. They must be something Martial King Lan Xiao created for fun."

Qin Yun pouted, "I just wanted to try. By the way, Teacher Ding and his child should be better now, right?"

"They are better now! They’ve left Hualing Martial Arts Academy and won’t be teachers anymore, probably to protect their child." Yang Shiyue sighed. "It’s a pity you couldn’t see him again."

She had broken her seclusion yesterday, and many things had happened in the past two days that Qin Yun didn’t know about. He listened attentively as she told him.

The Blue Spirit Star Palace had formed collaborations with multiple martial academies, major families, and empires.

As long as one reaches the Seventh Level of Martial Body, they can enter the Blue Spirit Star Palace to study and cultivate.

The Blue Spirit Star Palace also recruits young and outstanding martial artists. It's said that Xiao Yuelan and Qin Zhengfeng have already received invitations.

Yang Shiyue’s face was somewhat solemn: "Jiang Lang has a Legendary Martial Soul and has been favored by the Blue Spirit Star Palace. He was invited there yesterday."

"The people from the Blue Spirit Star Palace said they would guide him for a while, helping him build a solid foundation. Once he reaches the Seventh Level of Martial Body, he will become an official disciple at the Blue Spirit Star Palace."

Qin Yun didn’t find it particularly worrying and smiled: "I’m not worried about him. So what if he has a Legendary Martial Soul?"

His Vibrating Martial Soul is also a Legendary Martial Soul, and it’s even at the mysterious black level!

Yang Shiyue said: "The problem is, in just one month, the final exams of this semester will take place. With the capabilities of the Blue Spirit Star Palace, they can definitely make Jiang Lang improve dramatically within a month. By then, he will be your formidable opponent!"

Qin Yun then remembered that he had been at the Hualing Martial Arts Academy for almost half a year.

The semester was about to end, and Yang Shiyue would leave him then. Thinking about this, he felt a sense of melancholy.

Yang Shiyue smiled lightly: "If you reach the Sixth Level of Martial Body and pass the examination to enter the Three Martial Academy, you can go to the Star Profound Martial Academy. If you catch up to my cultivation level, we might even become fellow disciples!"
