Chapter 48: Accumulating Thickly and Bursting Forth Thinly

  Unexpectedly, the usually aggressive Yang Le chose to watch from the sidelines instead of leading the law enforcement team over. Hu Gao furrowed his brow, wondering if the Guo family had exerted some kind of pressure on her? But it didn't matter anyway, so-called schemes and plots were all just fleeting clouds in the face of absolute power.

  It's this fatty in front of him who has a straightforward and honest attitude that makes Hu Gao quite appreciative, and his understanding of martial arts also makes Hu Gao look at him with new eyes. Such a person shouldn't be ruined by sinister plots, and if he can lend a hand, it's only natural to help him out.

  It seems that Hu Gao has figured it out. In this martial arts school, there are no elites, only a bunch of mediocre people. No wonder White Xiao was able to kill all the elite warriors back then. It's not easy to run into someone as interesting as Fat Master today.

  "Hu Gao brothers, you win, I won't ask you about Wuying Sword anymore, I'll leave first."

  Chubby's thinking is indeed slower, after loudly scolding Guo De Yun, he only later realized that the consequences were quite serious, nothing much happened to him, but it was troublesome for his sister.

  He didn't blame Hu Gao, because the latter hadn't brought him any substantial harm. If he was to blame anyone, it would be Guo De Yun, a ruthless and cruel man who often used his sister to threaten him.

  Now considering these are useless, Fatty didn't delay any longer and directly jumped down from the martial arts stage, running towards his own home.

  Hu Gao's lips curled up with a hint of a smile, he liked this behavior of Pangzi, who was loyal and righteous, even if his thinking was a bit slow. No big deal, he could just help him solve the trouble himself. He had already thought of someone who would definitely be able to help Pangzi, and he had planned to go find that person anyway, so it was convenient to take care of two things at once.

  Jumping down from the Wu platform, Hu Gao walked straight towards Guo De Sheng, "Originally I was going to give you three days' time, but now I find you very displeasing, so I'll only give you one day's time. If by tomorrow at this hour, I still can't get my hands on 200,000 gold coins, then this Wushuang Sword will be sold as scrap metal."

  "Hu Gao, don't be too arrogant, thinking that just because the Ordinary Hall has no one who can match you, you're invincible. Let's not talk about the entire Ning City, just within the Martial Institute, the disciples of the Entry Hall and the Elite Hall are not people you can contend with." Guo De Sheng said in a cold tone, his words full of threat.

  "Hmph, I admit that the disciples of Entry Hall and Elite Hall are formidable. Currently, I indeed can't withstand them. But isn't War Institute your family's? Alright, no more nonsense. 200,000 gold coins, take it or leave it, no further discussion."

  Shaking his hands, Hu Gao left directly, not wanting to waste time here.

  "Haha, Hu Gao you this guy is really talented, actually able to make Wang Hu this big fatty publicly scold Guo De Yun as a turtle egg, if Guo De Yun knew about this, he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood." Ji Le hurriedly followed behind Hu Gao, looking very pleased, and burst out laughing loudly.

  Two people walked together to the library, after Hu Gao's golden card was upgraded last time, he found that he could have a separate private room for warriors to comprehend their yuan decision, so he brought Extreme Joy over.

  When he took out the demon pill in a lump, Jile was not recognized, and he looked at these black things, thinking that Hu Gao wanted to play tricks on him, and refused to eat them.

  Hu Gao was speechless for a moment, picked up a pellet of demon dan and brought it in front of Yu Feng, letting him feel the fluctuations of yuan force inside, only then did he believe that the black balls in front of him were absolutely rare breakthrough treasures.

  "You absorb them one by one, I'll be right next to you to protect you!"

  "Great!" Extreme joy filled his eyes. He had been stuck at the sixth stage of the Congealing Shadow Realm for a long time, and now that he finally had the opportunity to break through, how could he not go crazy?

  "When absorbing, don't rush, slowly convert the internal yuan force into your own yuan force. After fully converting, absorb the second one. Don't worry about wasting, I have a lot here."

  "Alright, wait for me to break through first before we talk!" Ji Le was eager and sat down, starting to absorb the yuan force from the demon pellet.

  Jile and Hu Gao's situation is vastly different, he has a solid foundation in the initial and middle stages of the Congying realm, and his Totem is basically condensed. The reason why he can't break through is still due to the bottleneck of Yuan power. This time, with a large amount of Yuan power nourishment, his Qi Sea immediately became active, just like withered wood meeting spring.

  With the nourishment of external forces, the meridians in his body became even more unobstructed. However, after absorbing only a few elixirs, Extreme Joy let out a loud roar and got stuck in the middle stage of the Condensing Shadow Realm for several months before he finally broke through.

  "I never thought that such a wonderful thing existed in this world. If I had encountered the Hu brothers earlier, I'm afraid I wouldn't even want to cultivate anymore, and would spend all day pondering it." After breaking through to Extreme Joy, his mood was great, and he couldn't help but start joking around.

  Hu Gao didn't expect Jile to break through so quickly, but since he had already given the demon pills to Jile, it would be embarrassing to take them back. So he said, "The higher the realm required for the Cultivation of the Origin Decision, the better. You can continue to absorb."

  They don't pretend to be happy, their Arctic branch's secret methods are mostly attack-based, the consumption of yuan force is astonishing, indeed the higher the boundary the better, now they don't hesitate and continue to absorb.

  It is indeed the case that "thick accumulation and thin emission" - the extreme joy had accumulated potential for a long time, which suddenly began to erupt completely under the stimulation of the demon pill. The secret method of his cultivation was the "Great Qiankun Quan" from the North Pole branch, which far surpassed Hu Gao's "Guiyuan Yiqi Liu" in terms of speed of conversion of heaven and earth energy. Of course, this doesn't mean that it is necessarily better - Guiyuan Yiqi Liu has its own strengths, particularly in terms of the circulation speed of yuanli. Both have their advantages.

  It's just that at this time, with the continuous influx of yuan force, the advantages of Daqiankong have emerged, and the realm of extreme joy has been elevated to an uncontrollable level. After all the demon pills were absorbed, it actually directly upgraded to the middle stage of the eighth stage of the condensation shadow boundary before stopping.

  Because the foundation of extreme joy is more solid than Hu Gao's, there is no need to forcibly compress Yuan Qi to lower one's realm like Hu Gao did back then.

  "Wo Zifa, from now on I'll have to call you Big Brother." Hu Gao was speechless for a moment, he didn't expect that Yu Le had actually risen two levels and surpassed him, of course, he wasn't really jealous of Yu Le's realm, for him, breaking through to the late stage of Condensing Shadow Realm was just a matter of time.

  "This is all thanks to this black thing you gave me, is there any more? Don't hide it, good things should be used to the fullest..." Yile laughed.

  "You think this is Golden Fur Beast's meat, want as much as you can get......" Hu Gao rolled his eyes, "Alright, hurry up and go find a suitable secret method, I still need to stay here for a while."

  "Alright, I'll leave first. As for the martial arts competition's preliminary round, I'm not even qualified to participate anymore. You can explain it to Master Yang on my behalf later." Ji Le didn't linger either, he had been waiting for the day to cultivate Yuan Jue for a long time and naturally wouldn't hesitate, so he swiftly took his leave.

  Since there was no gold coin to learn more yuan jue, Hu Gao could only continue to practice his Du Gu Nine Swords in the VIP room, and didn't return to Class 10 until it was time for afternoon classes.

  "How come you're always late? Doesn't it feel bad to be late?"

  As soon as he walked into the tenth hall, he saw that except for Extreme Joy, all the other warriors had already arrived. As a teacher, Yang Le would naturally not let go of this opportunity to teach him a lesson.

  Hu Gao felt a bit helpless, why did Yang Le always like to oppose himself? The War Academy didn't have strict management anyway, was it necessary to keep an eye on him all the time? Being handsome was also a kind of mistake.

  "What about Jile? Wasn't he with you just now?" Yang Le asked hastily after scanning around and suddenly discovering that Jile was also not there.

  "Reporting to Master Yang, just now we were cultivating together in the library, and suddenly broke through to the later stage of the Condensed Shadow Realm after an explosion of extreme joy. He's already excitedly returned home."

  "What? He broke through to the later stage? Well, according to the rules of the Martial Institute, if one reaches the later stage before registering for the martial arts competition, they will not be able to participate in the competition and will have to wait until after passing the examination at the Entry Hall to participate in the next competition. It seems that Extreme Joy won't be able to participate this time. I was originally thinking he could represent our tenth hall in the competition." Yang Le's heart naturally felt happy for Extreme Joy, but not being able to participate in the martial arts competition at the last minute was also a pity.

  "Alright, now that everyone is here, let's all head to the examination venue together. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if only our class of ten people weren't there." Yang Le said calmly, and then led the way out of the classroom.

  A group of people followed Yang Le closely out of the classroom and headed for the assessment venue.

  The Martial Arts Competition is a traditional competition in the War Academy, with slightly complex rules. In general, it can be divided into three stages. The first stage is called the preliminary round, where each sub-hall of the Ordinary Hall, Entry Hall and Elite Hall needs to select three martial artists to participate in the second stage of the competition. Taking the Ordinary Hall as an example, the assessment mainly focuses on the martial artist's strength, speed, and totem ability.

  The second link is the internal division of the three-tiered sub-temples, which are competed in a small team format, and the ranking within each sub-temple is determined. For example, the tenth place in the ordinary temple is the last name in the ordinary temple's internal competition in the previous martial arts conference, named as Shi Dian Tang.

  The third link is the most cruel one, called the bubble game. The first place team in the ordinary hall must challenge the first place team in the entry hall, and the winner will get the qualification to challenge the first place team in the elite hall.

  It can be said that every year's Martial Arts Competition is the best stage for martial artists to showcase their training results from the past year. Any martial artist who rises from the lowest level in the competition will become a stunning figure with unlimited achievements. The great elder of the Arbitration Committee did just that back then.

  When he signed up for the preliminaries, he was only a mid-term warrior in the Condensed Shadow Realm. By the time he participated in the third round of competition, he had already broken through to the Penetrating Body Realm and led his team directly to victory. After the competition ended, he even broke through to the Explosive Origin Realm, with strength that defied the heavens.

  The pre-examination assessment venue of the ordinary hall is very large, as big as a football field, and can accommodate ten martial artists from ordinary halls to take the exam at the same time.

  Yang Le led the ten people directly to the tenth assessment site, which was their exclusive assessment venue. Today, they would decide on the three warriors who would represent the tenth floor in the second round of competition!
