Chapter 14: Strength Improved, Everything Ready

Nanjiang Martial Arts University Library

"Having stepped into the Third Grade, I can choose one more martial technique."

"Before, I always chose speed-type bonus techniques."

"That won't do this time; I need to add some offensive means."

Ning An thought silently, and in the end, he chose the Red Sun Saber Technique.

Heart like a red sun, blade slashing flames!

This was a saber technique that leaned towards being overbearing.

The cultivation requirements were not very high, but it was very practical.

His requirements for martial techniques were not very high right now.

After all, the time the talent refresh lasted was limited.

It would be foolish to specifically pick techniques that were hard to cultivate.

The proficiency levels of martial techniques are roughly divided into entry, proficient, mastery, and subtle levels.

Previously, he had two martial techniques that reached the mastery level,

One was the Eight Trigrams Steps, and the other was the Quick Saber Slash!

Both were things he had spent several years gradually mastering.

This was the reason why he had to choose another saber technique this time.

With a foundation, and adding the talent bonus, he would at least be able to become proficient in a short time.

In fact, it was just as Ning An had thought.

This Red Sun Saber Technique had five forms in total, and he became proficient in just three days.

In normal times, it would have taken at least half a month.

This was the benefit of doubled talent!

It wasn't just a simple one-plus-one, but a qualitative change.

Of course, the foundation of his previous saber techniques could not be ignored either.

After reaching the entry level, Ning An would practice his martial techniques in the morning.

In the afternoon, he would read the insights left by predecessors regarding the Fourth Grade in the library.

Although Nanjiang Martial Arts University hadn't been established for long.

But at the time of the Shenxia Federation's founding, many people were brought over.

There were several high-grade martial artists similar to Jiang Hekang.

Not to mention the mid-grade martial artists, plus those who broke through later.

There were at least a hundred sets of insights on the Fourth Grade.

Ning An specifically picked some insights that were more compatible with himself.

Some geniuses' breakthrough methods were simply impossible to learn.

There was no need for him to struggle with them and waste time.

At night, Ning An would continue his cultivation.

His life was almost a three-point-one-line routine every day.

This continued for more than half a month.

The Red Sun Saber Technique had already entered the proficient level.

His offensive means had seen quite a bit of growth.

With his Third-Grade peak cultivation, his blood and Qi circulation had also reached a peak state.

"Time to attempt a breakthrough!"

Ning An's eyes flickered as he whispered to himself.

And the most suitable place for a breakthrough was undoubtedly the Nanjiang battlefield.

Previously, after synthesizing so many insights.

He wanted the path that was most suitable for himself.

It was undoubtedly to condense his martial intent through slaughter.

This was considered the most common method for breaking through to the Fourth Grade.

But it was also the path most suitable for an ordinary martial artist like Ning An.

He would have liked to become a heaven-gifted genius, but his talent was what it was.

Unless one day he could draw a mall-type ability.

And then obtain some special items that could change his talent.

Unfortunately, such things were not easy to obtain.

Talent undoubtedly determines a person's fate, and the value of significantly changing one's talent goes without saying.

Just look at the Wisdom Spirit Fruit from before and you'll know!

Even just developing potential as much as possible before becoming a martial artist is priceless.

Buying at a premium is also a very normal thing.

Before entering the battlefield!

Ning An first went to the school's logistics department and spent ten thousand spirit stones to choose a long saber suitable for the Third Grade.

Besides that, battle armor was also indispensable.

With his strength increasing, his previous battle armor was no longer suitable for him.

Fortunately, the school offered discounts for its own people.

For someone like Ning An who had just been promoted not long ago, and was buying for the first time.

It was half off!

"Old Zhang, can't you give me a bigger discount?"

Of course, Ning An didn't forget to haggle a bit.

He had been dealing with this Old Zhang in the logistics department ever since he enrolled.

It is said that he was one of the first people to build Nanjiang Martial Arts University.

However, he was very kind to people and didn't have much of an ego!

So after staying in school for a long time, everyone was very familiar with him.

Mainly because they dealt with each other so often.

Actually, Ning An knew that this Old Zhang was not simple.

Being one of the first to build Nanjiang Martial Arts University, plus being in charge of the entire school's logistics.

You really couldn't hold that position without some strength.

"You little brat, your wings have gotten stiff since breaking through to the Third Grade."

"I can authorize a waiver of one hundred spirit stones, do you want it or not?"

Old Zhang also huffed and puffed as he spoke.

"One hundred spirit stones is fine too!"

"It's enough for the family to eat a few more meals of spirit rice."

Ning An said without the slightest bit of minding.

"Take the stuff and get out of here!"

"Next time you come, I'll definitely fleece you."

Old Zhang was also a bit speechless about this kid Ning An.

There was a bit of annoyance in his words!

But in fact, it was clearly still carrying a sense of care.

Next time you come?!

It was clearly telling Ning An not to die on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, even mid-grade martial artists don't survive every time.

Not to mention that Ning An was only a Third-Grade martial artist.

And after stepping into the Third Grade, it wasn't as easy to sit and ambush like before.

After all, Ning An was definitely going to be hunting Third-Grade existences this time. ===== CHAPTER 37 =====
