Thank you for your cooperation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the standard interrogation by Jing Xia, Fang Xing was told to return to class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Fang Xing took three steps away, Jing Xia suddenly spoke again: “By the way… Bai Lianyi from your class was also absent today. Do you know anything about it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know about the Bai student…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing halted his steps, his expression perfectly puzzled: “What happened to her? Could it also be related to the Demonic God?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know, but we’ll continue investigating.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Xia watched Fang Xing leave, then went straight to the principal’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Guangming clutched his thermos, feeling even more bald: “Two campus seeds lost at once… two… why am I so unlucky…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Principal Lu…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Xia greeted him: “Thank you for your support and cooperation.

If we have no face at all, Xia Long will be heartbroken.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood.” Jing Xia’s face showed no expression as she agreed immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Troublesome! All of it’s troublesome!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Happiness Home Community.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing shut his door, checked the protective ward, then dropped all pretense—his face instantly darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Didn’t expect the thunder would explode so suddenly—two at once…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Three geniuses in one class, two of them problematic… if it were me, I’d suspect myself too…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘How do I break this deadlock?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing no longer dared to cross recklessly, fearing his secret would be discovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I can monitor others, but others can monitor me too… The Prevention Bureau’s tech is surely more advanced than mine…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Break the deadlock?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘The school protects me because I bring it honor… but all of that is as fleeting as floating duckweed…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What truly matters is my own strength!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘If I break through the Four Stages of Martial Path and become a certified Practitioner, my citizen rank will rise, placing me under the protection of the Omniscient Brain—even the Prevention Bureau can’t take extreme measures without evidence…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing never placed hope solely in Lu Guangming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Omniscient Brain was another option.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the Federation’s supreme AI, claiming absolute fairness, absolute justice, absolute impartiality… even coordinating most of the Federation’s production and operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Fang Xing remained skeptical—machines may be impartial, but those who built and designed its core logic were not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet such constraints may hold little power over the Federation’s mega-corporations, noble houses, or top-tier experts… but against a mere Prevention Bureau in a tiny city on a single planet, it must still carry strong authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Moreover, once I reach the Courage Stage, a martial artist’s path is set—hard to be swayed… even if the Sect had targeted me before, they’d abandon me afterward…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though discovery of his incorruptibility might leave only assassination as an option, their effort might not be as intense as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Break the deadlock! Break the deadlock!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing’s spirit hardened; after the previous attack, he felt his will had strengthened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He entered the training room, applied a layer of ‘Boiling Blood,’ and began training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roar! Roar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around him, he seemed to hear the roars of dragon and elephant; his blood qi condensed, a faint golden glow forming on his skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dragon-Elephant Art mark on his stats blurred—then began to breakthrough…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed unknown; Fang Xing opened his eyes, staring at his hands: “So strong… the enhancement after Dragon-Elephant Art’s breakthrough is truly comprehensive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at his stats—indeed, Dragon-Elephant Art had advanced to Proficient rank!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This not only rendered his body immune to mid-grade artifacts, but vastly increased his strength!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it didn’t stop there!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dragon-Elephant Might, aid my breakthrough!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, Fang Xing felt his six viscera thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His already immense internal qi, spurred and stimulated by the breakthrough of Dragon-Elephant Art, suddenly turned violent, surging wildly through gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and triple burner…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His pores opened, expelling thick, filthy blood…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All six viscera have been refined to perfection…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jade perfected, body sealed…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he possessed not only Jade Skin and Mystic Flesh, Willow Tendons and Steel Bones, but also purified six viscera, through which his internal qi flowed endlessly…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am now at the peak of Jade Refinement—no mortal body can surpass mine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To break through, I must turn to the Cerebral Palace!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade Refinement, in other worlds, meant Primordial—no path forward remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the Blue Star Federation, the martial path still stretched ahead—indeed… a dazzling Dao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To break through from Jade Refinement, a martial artist must comprehend a realm-based martial art! For me, mastering the essence of Dragon and Tiger, the Cerebral Palace is but a thin sheet of paper.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing took a deep breath, his blood qi surging as he slowly performed a set of fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This form was no extraordinary technique—it was the simplest, most ordinary posture from Blue Star martial arts, even inferior to the Twelve-Form Military Fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, as he moved slowly, faint roars of dragon and tiger echoed with his motions!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of his brow, where the Cerebral Palace lay, dragon and tiger shadows roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before, I couldn’t break through—my body hadn’t accumulated enough. Now, my internal qi is complete, my six viscera refined to the extreme—what can still block me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought, Fang Xing’s internal qi surged wildly into the Cerebral Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He heard the sound of something shattering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then… a searing pain in his brow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pain plunged Fang Xing into darkness—but when he regained awareness, everything had changed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly gazed at his hands, sensing a new perspective suddenly added to his vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if a third eye had opened—right at his brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, even with his eyes closed, he could still vaguely perceive his surroundings; within his own body, every detail was crystal clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his translucent jade-like bones, to his blood surging like great rivers, to the five-colored six viscera pulsing with internal qi—all laid bare before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is… the spiritual power of a Courage Stage martial artist?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xing murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The distinction between martial artists and ordinary fighters lay precisely in this spiritual power!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, looking back at the martial arts he had practiced, many confusing points suddenly became clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Now that I’ve awakened spiritual power, I feel like a martial genius… This sensation is stronger than a cultivator’s spiritual sense, yet slightly weaker than a Foundation Establishment’s divine awareness…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Regardless, it’s a solid breakthrough.
