Chapter 151: Divine Explanation and Breaking the Seventieth Level (Third update, please subscribe)

~15 min read 2,956 words

In the Killing God Battlefield secret realm of the Star Picking Tower, Xu Jin was constantly challenging.

He had just easily killed through the sixty-fourth level.

Actually, if Xu Jin hadn't stopped yesterday and continued to fight hard, Xu Jin estimated that he would have been able to break through the sixty-fourth level, or even break through to the sixty-ninth level.

But whether he could break through after the sixty-ninth level would depend on the specific combat situation in actual combat.

But today, it was completely different.

It was very easy.

After engraving the mid-tier fire source star pattern, the power of Xu Jin's star arts skyrocketed.

When challenging the forty-something levels before, those ordinary fifth-layer Star Refinement aliens with mid-to-lower star core forging were directly instantly killed under the power of the two Red Scale Hearts overlapping.

At this moment, Xu Jin finally thoroughly understood Liu Zhou Qingzhu's painstaking efforts.

The Red Scale Heart had a great power bonus for fire-element star arts.

Liu Zhou Qingzhu said that one Red Scale Heart was equivalent to the overlap of the power of the primary fire source and the primary fire image star pattern.

Xu Jin knew the primary fire source, but Xu Jin didn't know about the primary fire image yet.

But Xu Jin had already tested the power.

When overlapping the power of one Red Scale Heart, the lethality of his fire-element star arts increased by twenty percent.

And under the situation of overlapping two Red Scale Hearts, the lethality of Xu Jin's fire-element star arts actually exploded by fifty percent.

If the original lethality was ten, now it was fifteen.

Under the overlap of the power of two Red Scale Hearts, ordinary fifth-layer Star Refinement aliens with mid-to-lower star forging were now instantly killed.

At the same time, Xu Jin also did another test.

It was also because of doing the test that Xu Jin's challenge progress was slightly slower.

Another test was regarding the protection star patterns of the offered star cores.

Xu Jin tested and discovered that the primary fire source protected by the Fire Spirit Star Core could actually be overlapped.

But the power increase was only ten percent for one!

If two Fire Spirit Star Cores were offered simultaneously in the Arena, and both Fire Spirit Star Cores chose primary fire source protection.

Then his fire-element star arts could obtain a twenty percent power bonus.

A twenty percent increase in power didn't look like much.

But in actual combat, the effect was astonishing.

The fifth-layer Star Refinement aliens with upper-grade star forging that couldn't be instantly killed before, as well as the sixth-layer Star Refinement aliens with mid-to-lower star forging, were directly instantly killed under the protection of the two Fire Spirit Star Cores!

This made Xu Jin challenge the fifty-first to sixtieth levels with extreme ease.

But it was the sixty-first level to now that was also very easy.

Ordinary aliens at the seventh layer of Star Refinement were wiped out with two group-attack star arts.

Even elite aliens were wiped out with two fire-element star arts.

Up to now, Xu Jin hadn't even had the chance to display his latest kite-flying combat tactics.

It was that easy.

【Xu Jin, can challenge the sixty-fifth level, reward 35 Dao merits】

Just as Xu Jin's judgment yesterday said, as long as Xu Jin's cultivation base had not broken through to the second layer of Star Refinement, the rewards of the Killing God Battlefield would increase by one point for every round he ascended, and this snowball-like increase made the Dao merits obtained by Xu Jin more and more.

If he finished challenging the sixty-first to seventieth levels completely, the Dao merit reward obtained by Xu Jin in this round alone would be as high as 385 points, which was truly considerable.

The next round would be even more.

Just as Xu Jin was about to challenge, suddenly, Xu Jin's Star Picking Token vibrated three times in a row.

This was an extremely urgent star light transmission.

An ordinary star light transmission only needed one Dao merit, while an extremely urgent star light transmission needed two points.

Xu Jin quickly read the star light transmission, but it was sent by his teacher Liu Zhou Qingzhu.

【Can you kill through the sixty-seventh level? Liu Zhou Qingzhu】

【Yes】

Xu Jin was a bit confused, but he still gave his teacher a very affirmative answer.

If it weren't for the test, he would have killed through to the seventieth level long ago.

Next, the speed at which Xu Jin cleared levels would become very fast.

【A quarter of an hour, can you kill through the sixty-seventh level? Liu Zhou Qingzhu】

【Teacher, at most half a quarter-hour】

【Good, I'll wait for your result】

Looking at this extremely urgent star light transmission from Liu Zhou Qingzhu, Xu Jin was a bit confused, but he still started the challenge directly.

Since the teacher said to be fast, then he would be fast!

There were still three levels, which wouldn't take half a quarter-hour at all!

The next instant, Xu Jin's figure stepped into the sixty-fifth level.

Inside the Minglun Hall of the Great Chen National Dao Academy.

The group of University Rectifiers and Vice University Rectifiers who were about to adjourn the meeting were suddenly called back by Liu Zhou Qingzhu.

"Hmm, something up?"

Looking at Liu Zhou Qingzhu, University Rectifier Master Kou Jing, who stood up, frowned. The others didn't rush to leave either.

"University Rectifier, I still have one matter, please wait a moment." Liu Zhou Qingzhu said.

"Oh, what matter, speak." University Rectifier Master Kou Jing sat down again. Since University Rectifier Master Kou Jing had sat down, the other University Rectifiers and Vice University Rectifiers all sat down again. As for the teachers and instructors, it went without saying.

This time, Liu Zhou Qingzhu didn't speak before smiling, but while smiling, she first swept a glance at Vice University Rectifier Song Ziye.

"University Rectifier, it's a coincidence. Just now, when the bet was established, my disciple Xu Jin was challenging the Killing God Battlefield, and his progress is not bad!" Liu Zhou Qingzhu said. "If there are no accidents, this bet can end early."

Song Ziye reacted the fastest and sank his mind into the Killing God Battlefield to check the ranking for the first time. After just one look, his face turned pale.

"Liu, you set me up!" Song Ziye said angrily.

"You're a grown man, do you want face or not?"

Liu Zhou Qingzhu retorted on the spot, "Everyone has seen who started the trouble first!"

Several Vice University Rectifiers felt helpless.

This Minglun Hall had been ruined by Song Ziye and Liu Zhou Qingzhu today, losing its dignity. Fortunately, no students were watching, otherwise it would be truly shameful, just like a vegetable market.

Several University Rectifiers also realized something.

The next instant, Vice Supervisor Dong Zhao wiped his finger across his own Star Picking Token, and a star light ranking was projected before everyone.

It was exactly the Killing God Battlefield ranking.

Xu Jin's fifth-place ranking was extremely eye-catching!

"Before the meeting, this Xu Jin was still the ninety-second place in the Killing God Battlefield. I didn't expect that in this short while, he has already killed his way to fifth place," Dong Zhao said in a calm yet surprised tone.

Vice University Rectifier Song Ziye's expression was already incomparably wonderful, with all kinds of emotions constantly performing and then disappearing, finally looking at University Rectifier Fang Shinan for help.

"Just fifth."

University Rectifier Fang Shinan said lightly.

Although he understood very well that being fifth now meant the probability of breaking into the top three in half a month was extremely high.

However, that was half a month later.

"Indeed, the progress is gratifying! It seems we don't need to worry about this autumn examination champion being delayed! But Vice University Rectifier Song, you need to worry about your family assets; there are quite a few things in this bet." University Rectifier Master Kou Jing said.

"That's a matter for half a month later. We'll talk about it in half a month." Song Ziye had completely calmed down at this moment and had already begun to think about countermeasures, including how to improve the strength of the top three, including teaching clearance experience and techniques, and everything else.

"That's true, then..."

"University Rectifier Kou, please give me another half a quarter-hour! After half a quarter-hour, my disciple Xu Jin will be able to kill into the top three, and this bet can end early. This is the time for me to clear my name," Liu Zhou Qingzhu said.

"Oh, Xu Jin has such confidence?"

"Why didn't your disciple say he would become the first in half a quarter-hour?" Song Ziye sneered.

"University Rectifier, please give me half a quarter-hour; this is the time for me, Liu Zhou Qingzhu, to clear my name!

I, Liu Zhou Qingzhu, have not misled my students.

And Xu Jin does not need to change his teacher!" Liu Zhou Qingzhu stood up solemnly.

Since Liu Zhou Qingzhu had said so, if Master Kou Jing wasn't willing to give even half a quarter-hour, it would be too heartless.

"Good, everyone, let's wait for half a quarter-hour and see the changes in the Killing God Battlefield ranking." Master Kou Jing laughed. Unfortunately, the Killing God Battlefield belonged to an advanced secret realm generated by relying on the Star Picking Tower, and the combat scenes inside could not be seen.

Otherwise, one could watch the battle right now.

"Heh, he cleared the sixty-fifth level, he's fourth!" University Rectifier Pan Hong pointed at the ranking projected by Dong Zhao and laughed.

On the side, University Rectifier Fang Shinan's face was as dark as water, and Song Ziye, the head of the twelve Vice University Rectifiers, had a gloomy and nervous expression.

If Xu Jin really killed his way to the top three, then he would truly lose all face today.

Not only lose face, but also lose money.

Lose a lot of money.

"It seems that we all misjudged; Liu Feiyan is also quite capable of teaching students." Master Kou Jing laughed.

"Indeed! Look at you all, you just forced little Feiyan into a corner!" Pan Hong laughed.

But except for the few University Rectifiers, no one laughed.

If this student of Liu Feiyan's wasn't promising, then this would be another story.

A story that was extremely tragic and would make Liu Zhou Qingzhu never be able to lift her head again.

"Eh, look, the ranking has changed again. This kid clears levels quite fast, it's only been twenty breaths, right?" University Rectifier Pan Hong laughed again. "He's second now." He had the look of someone watching a show who wasn't afraid of things getting bigger.

At this moment, Song Ziye's face turned ashen!

He even had the heart to kill.

After so much trash talk, he originally just wanted to take the opportunity to ruthlessly step on Liu Zhou Qingzhu a few times to vent his anger, but he didn't expect that he was the fool who got set up!

In the end, he was the fool!

He even wondered if this was a trap Liu Zhou Qingzhu had designed for him from the beginning.

But after thinking about it, he felt it wasn't.

For one, Liu Zhou Qingzhu didn't have such great ability, and for another, this matter was started by him from the root.

If he hadn't started it, this wouldn't have happened.

But now...

"University Rectifier, since that's the case, you have all seen it; my student Xu Jin is already second in the Killing God Battlefield, so this bet can end early!

Please, University Rectifiers and Vice Supervisor Dong, preside over the result of the bet.

Urge Song Ziye to hand over the cultivation materials." Liu Zhou Qingzhu stood up and said with a clear voice.

These words made everyone present look at Song Ziye with sympathetic eyes.

A round of trash talk led to such a huge loss.

However, the Song family was wealthy, so losing this bit wasn't a big problem.

"This..." Vice University Rectifier Han Qing wanted to say something, wanting to absolve Song Ziye, but seeing Dong Zhao's stern gaze, he suddenly shut his mouth.

The Dao Academy's Supervision Division had already filed this matter, and there were four University Rectifiers as witnesses; this matter could not be overturned by anyone.

It could only be Song Ziye's bad luck!

University Rectifier Master Kou Jing, who was on duty, looked at everyone and finally looked at Song Ziye, "Ziye, accept the bet if you lose! When do you plan to give the cultivation materials you promised?

At the very least, you have to give a deadline.

Oh, by the way, the Vice Supervisor has already recorded this matter in the Supervision Division's files, and you still have to communicate with them about this.

Here, I will hand over my two Dragon Turtle Soul-Forging Elixirs first; I accept the bet if I lose!

It's a bargain for this kid!"

When Master Kou Jing took out a bottle of elixirs, he looked at the other three University Rectifiers, meaning that since he had already taken them out, they should hurry up and take theirs out too.

University Rectifier Pan Hong laughed bitterly and began to take out his elixir bottle, but suddenly University Rectifier Fang Shinan said, "Wait!"

"Hmm?"

Everyone looked at University Rectifier Fang Shinan.

Could there still be a twist in this matter at this point?

"Vice Supervisor Dong, when you recorded this matter in the files just now, wasn't the agreement that in half a month, Xu Jin's Killing God Battlefield ranking must be in the top three?" University Rectifier Fang Shinan asked.

"That is indeed the case!"

"That's it then!"

University Rectifier Fang Shinan nodded, "Xu Jin has only broken into the top three of the Killing God Battlefield now; whether he can be in the top three in half a month, we will only know in half a month!

This matter, we should discuss it again in the Minglun Hall in half a month, and the Killing God Battlefield ranking at that time will be clear at a glance!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Song Ziye, who had just looked ashen, instantly recovered his spirit and sat up straight.

He admired University Rectifier Fang Shinan endlessly.

A divine explanation!

And it was very reasonable!

Not far-fetched at all!

Ginger is still old and spicy!

As expected of a University Rectifier!

"This explanation is also acceptable." University Rectifier Master Kou Jing laughed, then looked at Liu Zhou Qingzhu, "Feiyan, what do you think?"

Liu Feiyan was also speechless.

Fang Shinan's explanation really couldn't be refuted.

Because what was said before was indeed half a month later.

But at this moment, Liu Feiyan was already incomparably confident in her disciple Xu Jin.

If he could kill his way to second place with the first layer of Star Refinement, then what about the third layer of Star Refinement in half a month?

Now, Xu Jin had only engraved one star pattern; in half a month, he could engrave at least two or three more star patterns, and his strength could still be greatly improved. Maybe in a few more days, his spirit could even forge stars.

In half a month, it was even possible for Xu Jin to be first.

"Half a month is half a month, I have no opinion."

"Good."

University Rectifier Master Kou Jing finalized this matter, "Then we will discuss it again in the Minglun Hall in half a month! But Vice University Rectifier Song, since we are discussing it again in half a month, then in half a month, regardless of winning or losing, you must prepare the cultivation resources for the bet.

If you win, you take them away.

If Vice University Rectifier Liu wins, you must give them to her on the spot.

Can you do that?" Master Kou Jing asked.

Just as Song Ziye was about to answer, suddenly, University Rectifier Pan Hong added another sentence, "Eh, so fast, this kid cleared the sixty-eighth level, he's first!"

Song Ziye's face turned a bit ugly.

This Xu Jin, why did he feel so strong?

"Vice University Rectifier Song?" Master Kou Jing asked again.

"University Rectifier Kou, I have no problem; regardless of winning or losing, I will prepare the cultivation resources for the bet!" Song Ziye said helplessly.

"Good, meeting adjourned!"

Master Kou Jing left first, followed by University Rectifier Fang, then University Rectifier Gao.

University Rectifier Pan was the last to stand up and leave, but when he left, he exclaimed again.

"Sixty-ninth level, this kid is fast enough!"

This sound made Song Ziye feel as if a knife had been stabbed into his heart.

But he was still comforting himself.

He only exceeded by two levels.

There was still half a month, and there was still a chance for change.

Subsequently, Song Ziye also stood up slowly and stared fiercely at Liu Zhou Qingzhu before slowly leaving the Minglun Hall.

He hadn't even walked a few hundred meters out of the Minglun Hall.

Inside the Minglun Hall, a series of exclamations suddenly came from the instructors and teachers.

"He broke through!

He actually broke through the seventieth level!"

"This Xu Jin is too amazing, he broke through the seventieth level so fast!"

"Then the seventy-third level shouldn't be a problem for Xu Jin, right?"

"Look, the seventy-first level has already been broken!"

A series of exclamations, each one like a knife stabbing into Song Ziye's heart.

This gap was getting bigger and bigger!
