Chapter 46: Battle Scar Transmission

  "Grandma's bear! What the heck is Old Yellow doing, his eyes seem to be emitting electricity? Please, old man, I'm not your type, don't shoot electricity at me!"

  Locked in by Lao Huang's eyes, Sun Yan was secretly suffering. He not only felt that his whole body's internal organs were being seen through but also couldn't move at all, as if he had been cast with a petrifying spell.

  At this moment, the old man Huang suddenly shed his aged and decrepit appearance, and his entire person became tall and majestic, with an aura as vast as a thousand-meter wave. From the side, one could see two half-meter-long electric lights shooting out of his eyes, flickering unsteadily.

  Those present, including Wang Sen, all felt a suffocating sensation in their chest, and under the immense pressure, even taking a step forward was difficult.

  "Feng Ling Xue suddenly shouted: 'Ming Sheng Xu Dian! Cheng Hao Wu Zhe!'"

  Wang Sen saw this and was unclear, anxiously shouting: "Huang Lao, what is the meaning of this?..."

  Rodney and other martial arts instructors were pale, desperately resisting this overwhelming pressure. They never thought that the librarian would be such a master.

  The old man waved his hand, the spark in his eyes disappeared, and he smiled: "Not bad, I didn't expect you to really learn it." As he spoke, his gaze dropped, and he teased: "You little scamp has a strong foundation, you'll be very happy in the future!"

  Awesome!

  Sun Yun's legs tightened, his face filled with grief and indignation. Today was truly an unlucky day for him. First, he was bullied by a dead person, and now he was being molested by an old man who was hundreds of years old. If this got out, how could he still show his face to people?

  Without waiting for others to say anything else, Old Huang waved his hand, hunched over and turned around: "I'm tired, you all do as you please."

  Wang Sen and others were very curious about what that martial art was, but they didn't find it convenient to ask. Feng Chui Xue had already restrained her curiosity no longer, bid farewell to the teachers one by one, and pulled Sun Yan out to run outside.

  Bang!

  The library door closed again, and the surroundings fell into darkness. Old Huang sat in a chair, looking up at the skylight, his wrinkled face revealing a hint of a smile.

  "Sun said, what an interesting little kid."

  "Unbelievable, this little guy has been under my nose for three years and I didn't even notice how talented he is. Sigh, getting old, getting old, sometimes you miss things too."

  "【Dragon Subduing Pillar】Although it's only a second-rate martial skill, it's the foundation of that ultimate art! The difficulty of mastering it surpasses even the 'Divine Skill Absolute Chart'. I thought that among this generation's young talents, aside from Lin Bingxue with her unparalleled talent and the elusive Sword Wanjian, no other prodigies could grasp its essence. But unexpectedly, unexpectedly..."

  "This little guy actually caught a glimpse of the door in just 4 hours. Alas, such an outstanding seedling, it's said that 'the pavilion nearest to the water enjoys the moon first', how could he have let that old man Lin get away with it so easily, it's not fair!"

  "Alas, I initially agreed with Zhang Zhengyi that kid first, and an old man like me cannot go back on his word."

  *sigh*...

  The old man let out another sigh, and the number of times he sighed today was probably more than the total of the past 10 years.

  "No way, can't let that old bastard Lin get away with it for free."

  He floated up from the chair, fell to the ground, and Old Huang paced back and forth, restless and anxious. Suddenly, he clapped his hands, "Although I'm bound by my promise, I won't let you snatch such a good student, nor can I let Old Lin have it so easy. Alright, that's what we'll do!"

  He opened the desktop computer, and Old Huang input a string of commands. The next moment, an image of a soldier appeared, with a shoulder badge featuring a gold star, revealing that he was a Major General.

  "Hello, Mr. Huang!"

  "Alright, no nonsense." Old Man Huang waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Immediately, under the name of the military department, borrow two teachers from Emperor Wind Academy for half a year. The reason is top-secret mission, within half a year, prohibit any contact with the outside world."

  "Yes! Huang Lao, can I borrow those two teachers?"

  "Who else? Xiao Dao and Xiao Guo, those two little rascals."

  "Yes! Understood."

  "Also, regarding the lockdown of Nanjing Academy's graduation exam, all information is prohibited from being leaked out for half a year."

  "Yes! Understood."

  "Hmm, done." The old man said with a smile, shutting down the light brain and gloating: "Lin old head, you were so pleased to trick me back then, now this is your retribution, hahaha..."

  ……

  As for all this, Sun Yan naturally did not know. At this moment, he was sitting in the car with Feng Lingxue, rushing to Chang Cheng's home.

  Arriving at the Chang family's estate, Chen Wang and Chang Cheng were already there, both waiting for Sun Yan's arrival.

  "What is it? What is the reward?" Chang Cheng couldn't wait any longer.

  Chen Wang's eyes were also eager as he asked: "A Yan, what reward did Mr. Zhang Zhengri leave behind? Was it a martial skill or a meritorious deed?"

  Seeing the two so anxious, Feng Lingxue was also extremely curious on the side. Sun Yan decided to tease the three people's appetite and started talking from the beginning of entering the secret room.

  When he mentioned finding that footprint and grasping the battle skill of "Dragon Subduing Stake" from it, Sun Yan suddenly realized that the expressions on the three people's faces were a bit off.

  "What's wrong?" Sun Yan asked strangely.

  Chen Wang revealed a bitter smile and said listlessly: "Originally, I still hoped to learn a new combat skill, now it's hopeless."

  "I'll show you, isn't that enough?"

  When he heard this, Sun Yan was greatly surprised, and he himself was not a person who kept secrets from others. He would never hide things from his friends.

  Sun saw that he didn't understand, and often nodded and sighed, saying: "Do you think everyone is like you, with such abnormal martial arts comprehension? A first-class, second-grade battle skill, without a mantra, it's simply impossible to master."

  Feng Ling nodded, saying regretfully: "That's right, Ah Yan. You think that many battle techniques can be grasped at a glance and mastered with ease. This is the terrifying aspect of 'Great Deductive Ability', as well as the most enviable part. Perhaps it's precisely because you possess this kind of deductive ability that you were able to comprehend Mr. Zhang Zhengyi's battle scars and learn the art of 'Dragon Subduing Stake'."

  "What's a battle scar?" Sun Yan furrowed his brow in confusion.

  Chen Wang smiled and said: "A Yan, you are not a member of the Martial Family, it's not surprising that you haven't heard of War Scars."

  "Scars are the emblem of a true warrior."

  Sun Yan was not surprised, the highest level of martial artist that a mid-level college could come into contact with was limited to the 9th rank. As for the realm beyond the 9th rank, ordinary students knew very little about it. Sun Yan only knew that the realm of the 9th rank great martial artist was the end point of countless martial artists' lives. If one could break through the 9th rank and reach the 10th rank, they would be able to transform their body and rebuild their martial foundation.

  Martial arts tenth grade, third grade is Kan, sixth grade is Guan, ninth grade is Qian.

  Tenth-level martial boundary, also known as the "Martial Transcendence Realm", such a martial artist is generally revered by people as a Grandmaster of Martial Arts. Those grandmasters have already become figures standing at the pinnacle of society in people's minds.

  At the tenth level of martial arts, one can be called a Martial Artist. Such a Martial Artist is a legendary figure. As for how powerful and fearsome a Martial Artist's abilities are, Sun Yan had no idea, nor did he know that scars were a hallmark of a tenth-level Martial Artist. After all, his own martial arts skills had advanced rapidly in just over a month, but compared to the profound knowledge of Chen Wang's family, Sun Yan still had a considerable distance to go.

  "When a martial artist breaks through the boundary of the fetal stage, they open up a second dan Tian within their body and become known as a titled warrior. They then possess the ability to condense battle scars. Battle scars are actually condensed from one's inner yuan, but the inner yuan of a titled warrior has various special qualities that can carry the martial artist's own essence and spirit, which is truly wondrous and has endless uses."

  "One of the uses of war scars is to pass on martial skills. The title holder infuses their martial techniques and methods into the war scar, and later generations can naturally learn these techniques by understanding the war scar. This method of preserving martial skills through war scars is quite common among titled warriors, more reliable than using books or brain storage. Because war scars are difficult to damage, they can remain intact for over a thousand years."

  "In those martial arts families that have been passed down for thousands of years, many battle techniques and skills are preserved through scars and sealed in a mysterious place. This method ensures that even if the martial arts family encounters a catastrophic event, their unique skills will not be lost."

  Sun Yan's mind wandered, a martial artist breaking through to the 10th level actually possessed such immense power, it was truly unthinkable. Suddenly, he thought of something and his heart began to churn, the strange occurrence three days ago at Luoshan Stone Tower, the fist print that suddenly appeared in his mind, looking back now, that too was a battle scar.

  That fist print contains infinite truth, and Sun Yan only needs to contemplate it for a moment. By touching the edge of this fist print, he has made significant progress. Compared to this fist print, Zhang Zhengyi's footprint is simply insignificant and cannot be compared.

  Sun Yan's heart was set aflame, if he could comprehend that fist print, what kind of astonishing martial skills or techniques would he be able to grasp?

  Sun Yan thought for a moment, then shook his head secretly and resolutely vetoed the idea. The situation that night at Luoshan Shita was actually extremely dangerous. With his current strength, trying again would likely be a matter of life and death.

  "It's only by waiting for a stronger future that we can try again." Sun Yan sighed secretly.

  At this time, Feng Xue saw him coming over and said seriously: "A Yan, after entering the Emperor Wind Academy, your first task is to go to the Emperor Wind Library to choose a suitable technique."

  Chen Wang nodded in agreement: "Not bad, this is crucial. A suitable technique can make the cultivation of yuan force twice as effective, and also greatly increase the power of combat skills. This point, Ah Yan, you must remember."

  "Uh-huh, I see."

  Sun Yan nodded and looked at Chen Wang and the others, saying gratefully: "Thank you."

  Since then, Sun Yan's rapid progress has been inseparable from the help of Chen Wang and three others. He is happy to have made friends like this before graduating from junior college.

  "What's wrong with you, kid? You've suddenly become so timid! Are you disgusting or not?" Chang Cheng couldn't help but show a fed-up expression, and then immediately shouted again: "Come on, come on, come on. Accompany me in a fight and see if you can learn the 'Dragon Subduing Pillar' technique in battle."

  Chen Wang sneered: "With that pig brain of yours? Want to comprehend in battle? Save your energy."

  "Chen Wang, what did you say? Who's a pig head, say it again and try?"

  Feng Ling Xue stood aside, smiling silently, suddenly made a move, her jade-like hand lightly plucked the strings, and the sound of the wind was heard, splitting into three directions towards the three people.

  "It's another sneak attack!"

  "Lingxue, you're so tacky."

  "Don't hit me in the face!"

  The four of them instantly clashed, and Sun Yan had just learned the "Dragon Subduing Pillar" technique. He was thinking of trying out this combat skill's power, so he didn't hold back either, and they engaged in a fierce and intense battle.

  Half a month later, it was time to report to Emperor Feng Academy. What would the number one school in Nanfeng Domain be like? Sun Yan was full of anticipation.
