Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, at the break of dawn.
"Wushang, how are you feeling?"
"How far into the basics are you?"
Zhang Qingwei, sitting cross-legged, exhaled a deep breath of white air, turning her gaze to Luo Wushang, with blood trickling from the corners of her mouth and eyes, yet there was a light in her eyes, a bright, burning fla.
However, this sowhat frightening scene did not stop Luo Wushang from repairing the wall; instead, one hand continued repairing while the other casually thrust towards another side.
Instantly, six explosive sounds echoed through the air.
"This Fixed Star Explosion Visualization Technique is quite powerful; I’m currently at 3% into the basics." Luo Wushang glanced at the six fingerprints on the wall, saying with great satisfaction, "Initially, during the Pilgrimage, I could achieve Point Star at thirty-three stars, and here the limit is at the Five-Star level, but this visualization technique has improved my body control and reaction speed, now I can easily reach Six-Star."
"I feel that if I improve a bit more, I should be able to reach Seven-Star, then even if I encounter a beginner apprentice expert in the wild, I should be able to hold my own."
"Are you progressing that quickly?" Zhang Qingwei was a bit taken aback upon hearing this, "We clearly started around the sa ti, and you’re at 3% while I’m only at 2%. No way, I’m not reporting to headquarters today."
With that, Zhang Qingwei ford a saber with her hand and delivered a strike towards the wall.
Suddenly, a star mark ford by three traces appeared on the wall, with cracks faintly appearing at the center.
"At 2% into the basics, I actually managed to use the first layer of the Overlapping Waves Saber, it’s indeed remarkable." Zhang Qingwei looked at the mark on the wall, her heart filled with overwhelming excitent.
Overlapping Waves Saber was her signature skill during the Pilgrimage, not inferior to Luo Wushang’s Point Star, but unlike the speed-type Point Star, it was a strength-type saber skill, unlike the Shattering Stone Fist which doubles one’s physical power, Overlapping Waves Saber uses technique to combine three blades into one, directly doubling the power.
Ever since the car accident, unable to keep up with bodily response, she hadn’t used the Overlapping Waves Saber again.
"What are you two doing?" Lin Qi looked at the two practicing on the wall early in the morning, his face sowhat displeased, "I asked you to repair the Martial Arts Hall, not to damage the walls. Each of you will be fined two hundred points, and today you must repair ten walls to compensate, otherwise, you’ll be expelled from the Martial Arts Hall."
Upon Lin Qi’s words, the previously excited duo was about to cry.
They’d rather Lin Qi apply physical punishnt and increase it tenfold.
Accumulating points in the Descent of High Martial is too difficult; even with a full day’s effort, they could only earn over a hundred points, and losing two hundred points set them back two days from obtaining a weapon.
Lin Qi watched the two begin obediently repairing the walls, his expression finally softening sowhat.
"These players are becoming increasingly powerful, the Martial Arts Hall can’t withstand their antics, and once the Hall is repaired, more players will co, I can’t manage it all, I suppose so new rules are necessary." Lin Qi glanced at the wall with cracks made by the two, feeling rather impressed.
What was originally a theoretical visualization technique has surprisingly been mastered, and it wasn’t just one person, but three. With this Fixed Star Explosion Visualization Technique, even though they are just prospective apprentices, they have the strength to challenge beginner martial artist apprentices.
This ans that Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall now has four beginner apprentice-level combat powers, which is equivalent to a small faction in the wild, already capable of officially engaging in so transportation and trading activities outside.
Blue Star, Kurong City, Shadow of the Storm Club.
Simulation match battleground.
"This match’s random map is the Ruined City, not very suitable for sniping." Li Ranxing looked at the arena before him and commanded through the team channel, "The four of you switch to close combat response mode, try to lure Blue Demoness’s four out; I’ll handle Chen Ya!"
"Yes!"
The randomly assigned Fang Zhen and the other three began moving towards the city center.
The cha Continent’s team matches involve ten players fighting on a single map, with initial positions assigned randomly, and the map continuously shrinks—fail to converge towards the center quickly, and one will be eliminated by the map’s collapse.
Thus, as the battle comnces, everyone heads towards the center, whether or not they et teammates or enemies along the way is purely up to luck.
"Really bad luck, I am positioned for rear support this ti without carrying any close combat weapons, and my ch is a remote cha." Fang Zhen glanced over his set of remote weaponry, utterly helpless, "Looks like ambushes are my only option."
cha Continent’s ch battles are divided into lee and ranged based on the weaponry, and chs paired with lee weapons are typically adjusted for flexibility and speed to facilitate rapid engagent.
Remote chs prioritize stability, often being bulky but capable of sustained long-range precise fire, though overwhelmingly disadvantaged if brought into close combat.
Journeying less than two kiloters, Fang Zhen heard explosive sounds from a large building afar, followed imdiately by a teammate’s short-range communication in his ear.
"Requesting support! Requesting support! Is soone close by? I’ve been spotted by two of Blue Demoness’s close combat players."
"I’m currently retreating eastwards, requesting support! Requesting support!"
Following the sequence of short-range communications, Fang Zhen observed on the opposite street a red close combat ch entangled with two blue close combat chs.
In cha Continent’s team matches, teams are usually divided into two colors, one red and one blue. In this simulation match, Shadow of the Storm is red, and Blue Demoness is blue, making it easy to distinguish friend from foe on the battlefield at a glance.
But before Fang Zhen could react, the red ch was sliced into several pieces by the two blue chs, directly knocked out of the match.
"Yo, lucky us, there’s still one more." The Blue Demoness mber ng Gang, wielding a war spear, looked at Fang Zhen facing the street and couldn’t help but smile, "Daozi, let handle this one. The last fight was no fun at all. The captain ntioned my dodging skills aren’t great, and this remote target is a perfect chance to practice them."
"Alright, but be quick. If you’re too slow, the battle on the captain’s side might have already started." Wang Yidao, the team mber, replied indifferently, "Ten seconds! I’m only giving you ten seconds to finish this fight."
Although the Shadow of the Storm team made it to the national tournant, they were only in the top thirty-two. Compared to these mbers who frequently reached the top four, they always lagged in skill and response, which is why they didn’t care about Shadow of the Storm.
"Fine! Start counting!"
ng Gang didn’t hesitate either. He directly controlled the cha, accelerating with boosters, and charged at Fang Zhen with the over ten-ter-long war spear. His speed left trails of afterimages, but the cha managed to deftly avoid the obstacles on the street.
"So fast!"
"Even at such speed, he can still operate so precisely. Is this the strength of the national top four?"
In front of the big screen at the Shadow of the Storm Club, a group of Shadow of the Storm mbers exclaid, watching the agile, monkey-like blue close-combat cha.
On cha Continent, cha control is extrely difficult, unlike other virtual gas, where it’s like controlling your own body, allowing you to perform various actions easily. cha control is more like driving a car; it’s much more complicated. Even top-tier experts on cha Continent find it difficult to make a cha move like a human.
But ng Gang managed to do just that, controlling the cha like a person. It’s simply unimaginable.
"Who’s controlling that remote cha over there? Why haven’t they started shooting?"
"That cha seems to be Fang Zhen’s."
"Fang Zhen’s luck is really bad, being so close to a close-combat cha. Even if he fires, he only has one chance. A single mistake ans certain doom."
The Shadow of the Storm mbers shook their heads as they watched the red remote cha. Normally, remote chas would snipe from three kiloters away, but now the Blue Demoness’ close-combat cha was just over a kiloter away, making it too late to dodge, especially with nearby cover that made dodging bullets easy.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
As the blue cha wielding the war spear was less than five hundred ters from the red remote cha, three gunshots echoed throughout the street consecutively.
"Is Fang Zhen crazy, firing three shots in a row? Does he really think random shots will hit?"
"Probably grasping at straws in desperation."
Everyone watched Fang Zhen fire three shots and felt he had given up. Due to recoil, consecutive shots in remote sniping make each shot harder to control, making three consecutive shots practically the sa as wild shooting.
"Has he given up? That’s so dull."
ng Gang saw Fang Zhen fire three shots and shook his head helplessly. He initially wanted to practice dodging, but now he didn’t need to. Besides the first shot that required a slight dodge, he could completely ignore the other two.
At once, ng Gang made a swift dodge, directly avoiding the first bullet aid at his head.
Just as ng Gang was about to tear Fang Zhen apart, he suddenly saw another bullet appear in front of him.
"Damn it!"
ng Gang suddenly raised his hand, intending to block the bullet with the war spear.
Clang!
A crisp tal collision sound rang out.
The war spear trembled as it was directly hit by the bullet, veering off its original blocking trajectory.
The next mont, ng Gang felt everything go black.
"Triple Micro-Operations!"
"He can do Triple Micro-Operations; could he be Li Ranxing?"
ng Gang woke up in the virtual ga pod, staring intently at the distant big screen, feeling a deep sense of regret. The Triple Micro-Operations cha control technique can only be perford by the captain-level experts in the national top eight.
He originally thought he was just bullying a Shadow of the Storm mber but didn’t expect to encounter the disguised Li Ranxing. Was this even a fight anymore?
As ng Gang watched another battle on the big screen, he was stunned.
On the other battlefield, Captain Chen Ya was fighting a red cha, both sides evenly matched.
"Damn! Who is that person?"
