Chapter 7: The Home in the Middle of the Night (Seeking Monthly Tickets for Tracking)

"Improved to 37%?"

"I haven't even felt it myself, yet the Divine Palace panel has already sensed it accurately." Li Yuan's eyes brightened slightly.

The Divine Palace panel cannot directly improve Li Yuan's martial arts cultivation.

But its biggest benefit is feeding back Li Yuan's efforts and progress directly in a data way.

Just like a progress bar.

Absolute positive feedback.

No one doesn't want to succeed, it's just that many people worry about working hard without results.

With the Divine Palace panel, being able to clearly see his own progress makes Li Yuan's motivation for cultivation even greater.

Cultivation is very hard.

"But cultivation also has great gains." Li Yuan exerted force suddenly, the long spear in his hand became blurry, and he thrust out suddenly.

"Swish!"

"Swish!" "Swish!"

Faintly, sharp whistling sounds exploded, forming blurry spear shadows in the air.

"Martial arts cultivation, trying to break the limits of life again and again, is indeed very addictive." Li Yuan retracted the spear suddenly, revealing a smile.

More than a hundred years ago, when cultivation methods were not popularized and there was only traditional martial arts, ordinary people would get addicted to fitness.

Not to mention high martial arts cultivation?

Li Yuan enjoyed the process of his body continuously becoming stronger.

Tired, but very cool.

"Li Yuan, your spear technique is really amazing." A heartfelt exclamation suddenly sounded.

Li Yuan turned his head and smiled: "Tianyou, your saber technique is not bad either. I remember your martial arts skill score today was 312 points."

Li Tianyou, who was next to him, had a thin face, but his eyes were very bright.

"Can't catch up to you." Li Tianyou smiled, standing straight.

"It's 9 o'clock, everyone else is gone." Li Yuan swept his gaze: "Still not going home?"

The morning self-study time stipulated by the Ministry of Education is 7 o'clock, and the night self-study ends at 9 o'clock.

Six days of classes a week.

Perhaps the subordinate counties and cities will be more rolled, but as a key provincial middle school, it naturally has to be strictly implemented.

"I'll practice a bit more." Li Tianyou said.

"Okay." Li Yuan smiled: "I'll go back first."

"Hmm." Li Tianyou nodded.

Li Yuan put the spear into the weapon cabinet and walked out of the classroom.

Watching Li Yuan leave.

The smile on Li Tianyou's face disappeared, and he muttered to himself: "My saber technique, why isn't it as amazing as Li Yuan's spear technique?"

"If I could awaken martial arts spirituality, that would be good too."

In Senior Year (2), Li Tianyou's martial arts score is firmly in the top five, occasionally ranking third, but there is a certain gap with Wan Xiao, let alone compared to Li Yuan.

Shaking his head, suppressing many distracting thoughts, Li Tianyou picked up the long saber and continued to practice saber techniques seriously.

Outside is the long night.

Most classrooms have already turned off the lights.

Only this martial arts classroom is lit. Li Tianyou, who was already thin, looked a bit lonely at this moment.

Night, on Luoyu Street.

Li Yuan, who had practiced for a whole day, had his clothes soaked in sweat, and only then sat on the driverless "517" tram.

There were very few people on the car.

In an era where virtual networks are highly developed and material is extremely abundant, most people's work is completed on the network.

Even for offline work, most workers have already finished work and gone home.

"... In late August, relevant state departments and the Xia Nation Branch of the Starry Sky Martial Arts Hall conducted a joint operation to carry out a successful extermination activity against the Star Realm water tribe in the Xianghe River Basin of Jiangbei Province, but a few escaped. Residents along the river, please pay attention..."

"Below, is the relevant war report on the tier-two Star Realm 'Luo Bu Sea' in Beijiang Province and the tier-two Star Realm 'Os Moon Sea' on Firefly Star..."

The electronic display screen above the driverless tram continuously broadcasted some of the latest news.

Li Yuan sat on a single chair, pushed open the window, the wind blew in through the window, and he watched the streetscape continuously passing by outside the window.

Very comfortable!

"Starry Sky and love must go forward bravely, Star Sea World reminds you, Quanyan Station has arrived." Suddenly, the arrival prompt sound sounded, pulling Li Yuan's thoughts back to reality.

"Star Sea World's advertisements, they really hit enough." Li Yuan shook his head secretly.

Got off the car.

More than ten meters away was the gate of the residential area where Li Yuan lived—Wanhua Platinum Mansion.

The name of the residential area is very atmospheric, but the buildings are very ordinary, and compared to the new residential area "Xiongchu World" next to it, it even looks a bit dilapidated.

"Welcome home, owner." A gentle female voice sounded.

Li Yuan passed through facial recognition and entered the residential area.

The residential area gate didn't even have security guards, only two smart robots standing in the distance.

In the residential area, there are all 11-story small high-rises.

Due to the long-term threat of war, since decades ago, super high-rise buildings have not been allowed, and most buildings are about ten stories, not exceeding eighteen stories.

Wanhua Platinum Mansion, although the building age exceeds twenty years, the overall maintenance is quite good.

Li Yuan's home is in Unit 2, Building 2.

"Little Yuan, out of class?" An old couple was jogging around the greenway of the residential area.

"Hmm, Grandma Sun, you are exercising again." Li Yuan responded with a smile.

Although this is a commercial residential area, most of those who bought here back then were employees of the same state-owned enterprise, enjoying discount prices.

So in a sense, this is a unit welfare housing residential area.

Plus so many years of time.

Many residents in the residential area know each other.

"Grandma Sun and the others are almost ninety years old, their bodies are still tough, and they didn't even buy a home robot." Li Yuan sighed secretly: "According to books, more than a hundred years ago, the average life expectancy was only seventy or eighty years."

Due to the popularization of cultivation methods, except for accidental deaths, the average life expectancy of Blue Star people has exceeded a hundred years, and the average life expectancy of Xia Nation people is closer to one hundred and ten years.

If one becomes an Entry Rank martial artist, the lifespan is even more astonishing.

Li Yuan just walked downstairs.

"Brother?" A pleasant girl's voice sounded from not far away.

"Brother~" Another boy's voice sounded.

Boom~ Boom~ Boom~ Two teenagers, about twelve or thirteen years old, both wearing loose martial arts uniforms, ran over from the shadows in the distance.

"Qianqian, Muhua." Li Yuan smiled: "Why haven't you gone home yet?"

The girl was beautiful and lively, with fair skin and a pair of very bright eyes.

The boy's face was very immature, but his height was close to Li Yuan's, half a head taller than the girl.

Li Qianqian, Li Muhua.

They are the twins of his uncle and aunt, fourteen years old, both in the second year of junior high.

"Brother, we just came back from the martial arts room." Li Qianqian smiled and hugged Li Yuan's arm, shaking it.

Li Yuan nodded with a smile: "How is it?"

Every residential area has a public gymnasium, which is clearly stipulated by the state, built with state funding, managed and operated by the property, and open to residents of the residential area for free.

"Not so good, there are many people, no venue to practice." Li Muhua shook his head.

"At your age, it's still mainly about laying the foundation, standing more in stance, and pondering cultivation methods." Li Yuan said: "Especially Muhua, you have awakened martial arts spirituality, don't rush in cultivation."

Li Muhua has very high martial arts talent.

Li Qianqian's talent is much worse, but her cultural grades are very good.

"Hmm." Muhua nodded, and then he seemed to think of something: "Brother, I remember today is your school's martial arts spirituality test."

Li Qianqian also looked at Li Yuan.

"Didn't succeed." Li Yuan shook his head indifferently, looking very unconcerned.

Li Qianqian and Li Muhua looked at each other.

"Brother, don't be discouraged. Even if you didn't awaken martial arts spirituality, you can still get into a martial arts university." Li Qianqian giggled: "Go home first, Mom just sent me a message asking when we will be home."

"Brother, you go to the property to get the express delivery."

Li Qianqian pulled Li Yuan's sleeve and wanted to walk towards the elevator.

"Sister, I got the express delivery last time, this time it's your turn." Li Muhua looked helpless.

"Good brother——."

"Qianqian, go with Muhua." Li Yuan patted Li Qianqian's head.

"Brother!!"

"Clatter~" The door opened.

"Mom, Brother and we came back together." Li Qianqian shouted before entering the door.

"All back?"

Sounds also came from inside the house.

Li Yuan followed his younger siblings into the door, and was the last to enter. He swept his gaze, the room area was not small.

Four bedrooms and one living room, 130 square meters.

Visibly, various decorations were a bit old.

"Uncle, Aunt." Li Yuan saw his uncle and aunt walking out of the bedroom. His aunt was wearing long-sleeved pajamas, with no makeup on her face.

His uncle was a bit fat, his skin was dark, but he was dressed very neatly, black short sleeves, long pants, and sports shoes on his feet.

"A-Yuan." Aunt saw Li Yuan and revealed a smile.

"Uncle, Aunt, going on a business trip again?" Li Yuan said in a low voice. He had already seen the large suitcase in the living room.

His uncle is a state-owned enterprise employee, engaged in civil engineering construction, running around the country all year round, and business trips are a common occurrence.

"Hmm, just received the notice this afternoon." Uncle nodded.

"Where to? Why so urgent?" Li Yuan asked.

A trace of hesitation flashed on Aunt's face.

"What's there to hide, A-Yuan is so old." Uncle laughed instead, looking at Li Yuan: "Going to Beijiang."

"Going so urgently, and going to Beijiang again." Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something, his expression was slightly nervous: "Tier-two Star Realm 'Luo Bu Sea'?"

"Where are you going? Why the rush?" Li Yuan asked.

A trace of hesitation flashed across his aunt's face.

"What's there to hide? Xiao Yuan is grown up now." His uncle laughed instead and looked at Li Yuan: "Going to the Northern Frontier."

"Leaving in such a rush, and to the Northern Frontier at that." Li Yuan was stunned at first, then seemed to realize something, his expression becoming slightly tense: "The Tier-Two Star Realm 'Luo Bu Hai'?"
