Chapter Sixteen: Star Domain Test!

  At the time when Liu Hui and others were stunned, the red-clothed middle-aged man's body flashed, and he floated down in front of Tang Lin, smiling and saying: "What is your name."

  This was a question, but when he said it, it sounded like he was stating a fact, and although there was no hint of inquiry in his tone, it didn't make people feel uncomfortable, on the contrary, it made them feel more intimate.

  Tang Lin saw him falling from the sky, his heart skipped a beat, and he respectfully said: "I am Tang Lin."

  "Is your surname Tang?" The middle-aged man in red clothes was somewhat surprised, and immediately smiled: "Unexpectedly, in less than a year, two people can break through the third pass, and both surnamed Tang. Do you know Tang Xiaofeng?"

  "Tang Xiao Feng is my sister." Tang Lin said honestly.

  Wow!

  All around was in an uproar.

  Tang Xiaofeng, this name is absolutely well-known in the Seven Stars Martial Arts Hall, and is recently a sensation. She's a legendary, peerless genius girl who was taken as a disciple by the hall master himself and directly cultivates in the Star Pavilion.

  Such a person will inevitably become a female martial arts goddess in the future if nothing unexpected happens!

  No one had expected that this stunningly beautiful and talented young girl would turn out to be Tang Lin's sister, and judging from the situation, Tang Lin was in no way inferior to Tang Xiao Feng. She had only been a student for less than a month and had already passed the third level!

  "Is that your sister?" The middle-aged man in red clothes exclaimed: "I remember, your sister is from the Chunyang Martial Arts Hall in Longxiang City. She has an older brother named Tang Long, who once participated in the martial arts hall's assessment competition but didn't pass the test. And there's also a younger brother... what was his name again? I forgot. I heard he's a weak and bookish person... Could it be that you're that person?"

  Tang Lin said in surprise: "How did you know."

  "The last time the master accepted Tang Xiao Feng as his personal disciple, we knew all about your family's intelligence. According to the intelligence, you should be born with a blood deficiency and unable to practice martial arts. Yet, in less than a year, you've become a warrior and even passed the third trial..." The middle-aged man in red clothes gazed at Tang Lin with piercing eyes, shining with wisdom, as if seeing into his very soul.

  Tang Lin had a feeling of being seen through everything by him, and he was secretly shocked in his heart. "Does he know about Xiao Hui's affairs?"

  At this time, the middle-aged man in red thought of something and waved his hand to all the students around him: "You can all disperse."

  "Yes, sir." All the teachers hurriedly replied with respect.

  A man in red clothes said to Tang Lin, "Come with me." He didn't wait for Tang Lin's response and lifted his palm, grasping Tang Lin's arm. His body floated up, treading on empty space, and quickly left amidst the crowd's gaze.

  "The feeling of flying." Tang Lin looked down at his feet, all the students were under his feet, as if they were tiny ants.

  A gentle breeze caresses the body, feeling carefree.

  Tang Lin's heart was stirred with excitement, although it was his first time flying in mid-air, but he didn't panic. Mainly because the red-clothed middle-aged man had grasped his body very steadily, and secondly, Tang Lin's willpower was strong, confident that even if he fell from high altitude, he would still be safe and sound.

  Whoosh!

  The red-robed owner led Tang Lin directly to a room on the top floor.

  In the luxurious and clean room, the red-clothed master sat on a purple sandalwood chair, smiling at Tang Lin who was looking around in front of him: "You should know that I am the master of the Red Star Building."

  Tang Lin nodded.

  From what he said about his family situation just now, I guessed it out.

  "You can break through and become a martial artist within a year, it must be due to some extraordinary encounter." The Red Building Master looked at Tang Lin with another profound meaning.

  Tang Lin's heart tightened.

  "Don't worry." The red-haired building owner smiled and said: "It's normal to have strange encounters, which genius doesn't have strange encounters?"

  Tang Lin let out a sigh of relief.

  "You can pass the third level, as usual, you will have the opportunity to participate in the Star Domain test. I will report the situation to the Master of the Pavilion, and he will open up the Star Domain for you." The Red Building Master smiled at Tang Lin, saying: "This is an opportunity, whether you can truly transform depends on your own luck."

  "Star Domain?" Tang Lin asked in confusion.

  "In our Seven Star Martial Arts Academy, there is a mysterious star domain." The Red Building Master smiled and said: "At the beginning, your sister also participated in the star domain test. Among the seven major star buildings, anyone who can pass the third floor of the Iron Tower Pass has the qualification to participate in the star domain test."

  "In this star domain, there is a mysterious stellar power that can temper one's physique. Your second sister was originally in the Star Domain, directly breaking through from Martial Artist First Realm to Martial Artist Third Realm, skipping over Martial Artist Second Realm, and even sensing the North Dipper stars in the sky, before being personally accepted as a disciple by the Master."

  "Break through to the third boundary of martial arts directly?" Tang Lin was shocked and immediately asked: "What is the North Dipper Star?"

  "What is referred to as the Big Dipper, is one of the seven major stars in the sky. These seven major stars are: Tiān Jī Star, Tiān Xuán Star, Chì Yuè Star, Lóng Shǒu Star, Běi Dǒu Star, Tiān Gōng Star and Zǐ Wēi Star!"

  "In this, the Big Dipper is the fifth star, and in the generations of the Martial Hall who have entered the Star Domain test, most people can only sense the 'Tianji Star' or the 'Tianxuan Star'. Only a small number of people can sense the Red Moon, Dragon Head, and other stars. Those who can sense the Big Dipper are even fewer in number. The achievements of these individuals are at least becoming a Martial God, while most others become Saints. That's why the Hall Master personally recruited your sister as his direct disciple."

  Tang Lin was shocked in his heart.

  In the star domain test, I sensed the Big Dipper, and there is a potential to become a saint in the future?

  "If it's the Tian Gong star or the Zi Wei star?" Tang Lin couldn't help but ask.

  The red-robed master smiled and said, "For thousands of years since the founding of the Martial Hall, only one person, the hall master, has been able to sense the heavenly palace's starlight. As for the Ziwei Star, no one has ever sensed it before. The hall master's strength... if you have hopes of becoming a martial god in the future, perhaps you'll come to understand."

  "At the very least, he's a Saint-level expert." Tang Lin thought to himself, The red-robed man in front of him was indeed a Saint-level expert, and the master of the Seven Stars Martial Hall was naturally even stronger!

  "You can work hard, as long as you can sense the Dragon Star, you can directly join the Star Pavilion and become a member. The treatment inside is not comparable to the Seven-Star Building. For example, the Refining Room in the Star Pavilion doesn't require battle points to enter for cultivation." The Red Building Master smiled and said: "Whether or not you can truly transform depends on your own talent."

  Tang Lin nodded heavily.

  "Alright, you can go now, work hard." The red-haired landlord said with a smile.

  Tang Lin chatted with them for a few words, then bid farewell and left the top floor of the Red Star Building. As he walked down to the bottom floor, he met many students along the way. The gazes of these people looking at him were filled with surprise and respect.

  Tang Lin arrived at the martial arts arena.

  "Tang Lin!" A clear and crisp voice joyfully shouted towards Tang Lin.

  Tang Lin raised his head and saw Zhao Ziyu and Teacher Liu Hui standing outside the martial arts arena, seemingly waiting for him.

  Tang Lin walked quickly over.

  "Good kid." Wang Yong looked at Tang Lin with envy, saying: "In just a short dozen or so days, you actually passed the third trial. Honestly, did you encounter something unusual?"

  Tang Lin shrugged his shoulders.

  "Cut it out." Liu Hui scolded with a smile, then looked at Tang Lin and chuckled: "Just now, the host must have told you about the star domain, right?"

  Tang Lin nodded, Liu Hui being a teacher, he must have known this long ago.

  "What star domain?" Zhao Zi'er and others became interested.

  Xie Jianfeng, who was standing beside him, had been expressionless all along. When he saw Tang Lin arrive, his eyes flashed, and he clenched his fist secretly. At this moment, when he heard Liu Hui's words, he couldn't help but turn his head to look over.

  "In the star domain, strength can be rapidly increased, and the body is refined under the tempering of stellar power. Liu Hui smiled and said: 'This is a great blessing from heaven, most people who have entered the star domain, as long as they haven't fallen halfway, have already become martial gods within the empire!'"

  Zhao Zi'er and others gaped in shock.

  Xie Jianfeng furrowed his brow slightly, glanced at Tang Lin, and a hint of discontent flashed in his eyes. Since losing the kickboxing tournament, he had been eager to become stronger. Coming to Qixing Wuguan, he saw too many geniuses, while his own talent could only be considered mediocre here.

  Unwilling! Unresigned!

  Especially when he saw Tang Lin break through the first layer of the Iron Tower, he secretly practiced hard. Unexpectedly, in just over a dozen days, Tang Lin broke through the third pass. Now, he is about to enter that mysterious Star Domain, and his strength will be further enhanced.

  The gap is getting bigger and bigger!

  It was so big that he almost despaired.

  He clenched his fist tightly, his fingernails deeply embedded in the flesh, and his expressionless face was as cold as a layer of frost.

  Zhao Ziyu and the others looked at Tang Lin with a completely different gaze, filled with respect and admiration. Although they were all geniuses who had become warriors, surpassing ordinary people, each of them had a dream of becoming a martial god in their hearts, but it was still just a dream!

  But Tang Lin standing in front of them has the ability to turn this dream into reality!

  Liu Hui encouraged everyone: "You all need to work hard, learn from Tang Lin, and strive to break through the third level as soon as possible."

  Zhao Ziyu and others thought of Tie Ta Guan, their scalps went numb.

  In their eyes, those seventy-two bronze men were a nightmare.

  Tang Lin followed everyone to chat for a while, then came to the martial arts field, picked up a fine iron-forged cow horn bow from the weapon rack, and went to the archery area for training.

  The rest also went to exercise on their own.

  Like Xie Jianfeng, Zhao Ziyu and others, they have all reached the age of 14. Liu Hui often explains some common knowledge of weapons to them, and also lets everyone choose their favorite or handy weapons for training. In addition to the familiarity of weapon training, it is also a physical exercise.

  "Do you want to learn archery?" Liu Hui asked in surprise at Tang Lin's actions.

  Tang Lin smiled and nodded.

  He is only thirteen years old now, and archery does not require like swords, guns, and clubs, the need to cultivate weapons as an extension of the body.

  The bow and arrow only need accuracy, speed, and ruthlessness!

  Liu Hui nodded and said, "For you now, practicing archery is not bad either. Although in the Imperial Court, archers have no status, especially on the battlefield, where people are densely packed, even with eyes closed, one can still kill someone by shooting blindly. However, in a high-level competition, opponents will not give you the chance to draw your bow. Nevertheless, using archery to train your eyesight and hand feel is quite good."
