We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 104 The God-Making Project, Phase One
"Sorry, I'm going out to take a call."

Duan Wuyai looked at the vibrating smart bracelet, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not hang up. He then offered a slight apology to the deans and Vice Principal Ji Chenghu.

Then, without hesitation, he pushed open the conference room door and walked straight out, though his back view looked somewhat dejected.

"What's going on, Lao Duan?" Cheng Shangwu asked Chu Yunfei, who was standing to the side, in a very casual manner.

"I don't know what's going on with Lao Duan." Chu Yunfei shrugged helplessly, rolled his eyes at him, and replied in a bad mood, "But have you ever thought about whether it's because you're too Versailles?"

"you"

Seeing the two bickering like usual, Huang Qingqing couldn't help but smile, a gentle smile appearing on her face.

"what happened?"

"Junior Brother Shen has finished the test." Wei Xin keenly sensed the displeasure in Duan Wuyai's tone and quickly quickened his pace:
"Junior Brother Shen's current physical fitness level is 14.7, with a single-arm maximum punching force of 22.62 tons and an explosive coefficient of 101%; his explosive speed is 66.71 m/s, and his leap coefficient is calculated to be 5.31."

"The specific data and video recordings have been uploaded to the Tian Shu database. I do not have permission to access them, so you will need to view them yourself."

"what?!"

Duan Wuyai exclaimed in surprise, instantly snapping back to reality. The feeling of falling to the bottom and then rising to the top was surreal: "What did you just say Shen Bailian's leap coefficient was?"

"5.31!"

Wei Xin's words became increasingly forceful and resolute.

boom!
Like thunder splitting the fog.

The slight displeasure in Duan Wuyai's heart vanished in an instant, as did the pressure from Cheng Shangwu and the others, and the doubts he had about his own choices.

"5.31, 5.31!"

Duan Wuyai murmured softly, repeating the data over and over. He took a deep breath, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and pushed the door open again.

This time, however, his energy and spirits improved significantly.

The king has returned.

Tiangang Academy, Nanhu Villa District, No. 4137, detached villa.

"Are you sure this is for me to live in alone?"

After learning the details, Shen Bailian's face showed an uncontrollable shock. He couldn't help but turn to look at Wei Xin behind him, his voice tinged with doubt.

The villa where the two lived had two floors above ground, with a total building area of ​​over 1000 square meters, and there was also a small garden outside. Although it was unknown what was planted in it, it looked very valuable.

Underground, there is a specially designed underground training room with a height of seven meters, capable of withstanding the powerful bombardment of a Transcendent Realm martial artist.

Furthermore, Shen Bailian noticed something unusual about the villa as soon as he entered.

If the concentration of the elemental energy inside the Tiangang Academy is 1, the concentration here can reach 2.5, and the concentration of the elemental energy in its underground training room is three times that of the outside world.

If you practice diligently, you will achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"correct."

A hint of envy flashed in Wei Xin's eyes. Before receiving the news, he had never imagined that Shen Bailian would be able to live alone in a small villa.

According to the rules of Tiangang Academy, even freshmen at the Sun-level must rank in the top 36 after the placement matches to be eligible to live in a detached villa.

This is the first point of contention.

but.

When you think of Shen Bailian's phenomenal leap coefficient, all of this seems to make a lot of sense.

"Junior brother, don't forget that on the 28th, which is Monday, you have a ranking match to participate in. The way to participate is to log in to the virtual world using the virtual reality pod in your bedroom."

"Your initial virtual account is your student ID number, and your password is the last six digits of your ID card."

Wei Xin spoke up to remind Shen Bailian.

"Ranking matches?" Shen Bailian looked at Wei Xin with suspicion and asked, "Could you explain in more detail?"

“Two trials are held every year after the new students start school.”

Wei Xin continued, "The first game is a virtual battle royale. The artificial intelligence will randomly select a type of terrain and then throw everyone into it to fight. The terrain will keep shrinking until only one person remains before it ends."

"The rankings are divided into two main categories: college overall rankings and individual rankings."

"The Fourth Academy ranked fourth among the six major combat academies last year, so its overall cultivation resources were reduced by 10%."

"Sigh~"

Shen Bailian couldn't help but gasp. This thing actually had a punishment. But upon closer inspection, it made perfect sense. Without rewards and punishments, how could martial artists be motivated?
What are the rewards for that person who ranks at the top?

"I don't know." Wei Xin shook his head and said with a smile, "But there is a reward that is made public: the top thirty-six people can live in a detached villa for a period of one year."

Shen Bailian nodded. After spending a short time together, he had learned about Wei Xin's identity: he belonged to a research institute outside of the six major combat academies.

Therefore, it's understandable that he doesn't know much about these things, since Wei Xin's original task was to help Shen Bailian familiarize herself with the campus and test her physical data.

"What form will the second trial take?" Shen Bailian continued to ask.

"Wilderness Trial," Wei Xin said, "It's usually set in the second or first buffer zone. The specifics and opening time are uncertain and depend on the situation that year. The ranking will still be based on a points system, with only individual rankings."

"Oh, I understand now." Shen Bailian suddenly realized, and he smiled, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother Wei."

"Haha, it's nothing." Wei Xin glanced at his smart bracelet, a hint of apology on his face, and said sheepishly:

"Junior Brother Shen, I have something to attend to here, what do you think?"

"Okay, thank you for your help today, senior. I'll see you out."

As they chatted and laughed, Shen Bailian saw Wei Xin out the door.

Just as the two were about to part, Wei Xin suddenly turned around, as if he had remembered something, and with a mysterious smile on his face, said to the boy:

"In a virtual battle royale, the points you get for eliminating each person may be different."

"no the same?"

“Yes.” Wei Xin nodded, patted the boy’s shoulder with a smile, and said with a hint of anticipation, “Junior Brother Shen, good luck!”

"Bye, you can ask me any questions on Starlink."

"Wish me luck?" Shen Bailian looked at Wei Xin, who had disappeared around the corner, with some doubt.

really.

Riddlers are the most annoying kind.

"Hello."

Suddenly, a clear and melodious voice, as pleasant as a silver bell, came from not far behind. This unexpected and beautiful sound...

However, this beautiful sound did not please him; instead, it startled Shen Bailian and interrupted his thoughts.

"I've been living a bit too comfortably lately."

Shen Bailian couldn't help but think to himself that he had almost abandoned the good habits he had developed in the wilderness, and he hadn't even noticed someone approaching from behind.

He then turned his head and saw two girls walking over.

One girl was wearing a white martial arts uniform and had a curvaceous figure; the other girl had delicate features and kept talking, laughing from time to time, clearly having a lively and outgoing personality.

"Hello."

"My name is Wang Yuxuan, I'm from Suzhou and Hangzhou, and I'm a freshman in the Third Academy." The girl in the white martial arts uniform smiled slightly, extended her hand, blinked her big eyes, and said, "Can we get to know each other?"

"My name is Shen Bailian, I come from Bozhou City, and I am a freshman in the Fourth Academy." Out of politeness, Shen Bailian extended his hand and gave it a perfunctory shake.

It had a cool, refreshing feel to the touch, but he only touched it briefly before pulling away, without lingering. This caused a strange glint to flash in the girl's eyes. "Okay, then we'll be going now." Wang Yuxuan tugged at the girl beside her, and then passed by Shen Bailian, leaving behind a faint, pleasant fragrance.

Shen Bailian watched the two girls' departing figures, his brows furrowing slightly. He was completely baffled and couldn't figure out what Wang Yuxuan meant even after thinking for a long time.

Is it just to get to know them?

But probably no new students know him yet, since all his tests are conducted indoors and no outsiders can see them.

"Now you can try using basic breathing techniques to temper your body."

Shen Bailian quickly put his worries behind him and walked towards Villa 4137. He opened the door and went straight to the underground training room.

4126 Detached villa.

Wang Yuxuan lay on the sofa, looking at the exquisite chandelier above her head, her eyes sparkling, lost in thought.

"Xuanxuan, you weren't just...?" The pretty girl Feng Yanqiu crawled over with a gossipy look on her face and looked at Wang Yuxuan, who was deep in thought beside her.

The meaning behind the words is self-evident.

"What could it be?" Upon hearing this, Wang Yuxuan was stunned for a moment, and a clear light appeared in her eyes.

"You don't actually have a crush on that handsome young man, do you?"

"Oh, so you dare to make fun of me."

Unexpectedly, no sooner had Feng Yanqiu finished speaking than Wang Yuxuan pounced on her, reaching out with both hands towards her armpits, striking her weak point with her Dragon Claw Hand, and began scratching.

"Stop laughing, you!"

"Stop... giggle... stop tickling me, I know I was wrong."

After a long while, Wang Yuxuan finally let go, while Feng Yanqiu straightened her clothes and immediately hid to the side, looking at Wang Yuxuan with a wary expression.

"That person is not simple."

"Yes, of course it's not simple, after all, you shook hands with him directly."

"Go to hell." Wang Yuxuan rolled her eyes at Feng Yanqiu and said directly, "I sensed the same aura as me on him."

"Isn't this perfect? ​​A match made in heaven!"

"You?" Wang Yuxuan glared at the other person, her hand already itching to strike.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more." Feng Yanqiu immediately put on a pitiful look, and tears even began to well up in her eyes.

"I was referring to the aura, specifically the Sun-level Lungmen species." Wang Yuxuan ignored this drama queen.

Eastern Territory, the war base of the Mountain and Sea Academy.

"Hongling, how are you feeling?"

Yu Linglong pushed open the door and entered, ignoring the staff next to her, and looked directly at the weak girl lying in the medical pod, immersed in fiery red liquid.

His eyes were filled with concern and worry.

Li Hongling was lying in the medical pod, her face as pale as a sheet of paper. Her mouth moved, but she couldn't utter a complete word for a long time.

It's as if all the vitality has been drained away.

The female general, who was once a valiant and powerful figure on the field, is now almost nothing but skin and bones.

"How is she now?" Seeing that Li Hongling did not reply, Yu Linglong's eyes were like knives, and a strong pressure was immediately released.

The pressure was so intense that the staff member in white standing nearby could hardly breathe, his head was covered in cold sweat, and he trembled so much that he couldn't say a word.

"Linglong." An elderly woman with black hair streaked with silver and sharp eyes spoke up, "What are you doing?"

"I'm sorry, Granny Wang." Yu Linglong restrained her aura, but her sharp eyes were still fixed on the staff.

Several staff members looked at the old lady, because Granny Wang was one of the leaders of the deification project and had the decision-making power.

"Sigh." Granny Wang sighed helplessly, "Tell her."

“Okay.” One of the staff members stepped forward and said, “The first phase of the God-Making Project is currently 99% complete.”

"What about the remaining 1%?" Yu Linglong's gaze was sharp as she relentlessly pressed closer to the staff member.

Grandma Wang walked over and stood between the two, looking at the girl in the medical pod with pity: "She can only rely on her willpower to get through this and give birth."

"If you can't get through this, then you can start preparing."

"It was her own choice, wasn't it?"

8 month 28 day.

Tiangang Academy, South Lake Villa District, No. 4137, detached villa, underground training room.

Rumble~
Shen Bailian's entire body was vibrating at a peculiar frequency, and his face was flushed.

Under the guidance of the basic breathing technique, the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth was continuously drawn to Shen Bailian's surroundings, compressed and tempered by the illusory yet real Dragon Gate Seed, and then flowed into his muscles, bones, and flesh.

"As expected of a Sun-level Dragon Gate species, the speed at which it tempers its body is truly fast."

Shen Bailian closed his eyes tightly. He could clearly feel his physical attributes undergoing a continuous transformation under the tempering of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Previously, it would take ten days to half a month to barely increase punching power by 100kg, but now it only takes one day.

Half a month of body training is not as effective as one day of body tempering.

Of course, it will definitely decrease in the later stages, but it is still an extremely terrifying rate of improvement.

Buzz~buzz~
I felt the vibration from the smart bracelet.

"It's time to go to your room."

Shen Bailian focused his mind, the tremors in his internal organs gradually subsided, and then stopped. His eyes flashed slightly, and the control panel immediately appeared—

Character Level: LV7 (1022/1800)

Physical Strength: 14.9; Spirit: 7.9

[Active Skill: Running LV5 (101/1000)]

Tian Gang Qi LV1 (320/400)

Basic swordsmanship LV3 (144/700)

Basic Breathing Techniques LV1 (252/400)

Passive Skill: Iron Body LV4 (123/1300)

Over the past five days, Shen Bailian has spent most of his time familiarizing himself with basic breathing techniques, and the rest of his time practicing swordsmanship and the Heavenly Gang Qi.

But it's a pity.

Even with his current physical condition, he can only focus on cultivation for 4 hours at a time. If he exceeds that time, he is very likely to get injured, involving injuries to his muscles, bones, flesh, and even internal organs.

Therefore, the basic breathing technique skill only increased by 240 experience points, and the experience bar was barely halfway through.

However, it wasn't without its benefits. Under the influence of the basic breathing technique and the Iron Body skill, Shen Bailian's physical attribute value directly increased by 0.2, reaching 14.9.

Shen Bailian stood up, took a quick shower in the bathroom, and then, wearing a bathrobe, lay down in the virtual reality pod.
