Chapter 331 Secret Weapon, Deep Frost Vein

The Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force is the most powerful and valuable combat technique among all the combat martial arts that Zhang Yu currently possesses.

This military-grade martial art can open up voids in the Qi, allowing each void to absorb its own power and unleash it when needed.

When the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force is pushed to the 10th level, it can open up 10 voids. Each void can accumulate the power of an opponent's attack, and unleash the power of 10 attacks in one go.

Later, when Zhang Yu pushed the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force to level 20, in addition to the number of voids he could open increasing to 20, the upper limit of the power that the voids could hold also greatly increased along with the increase in Zhang Yu's physical endurance.

Zhang Yu still remembered that when he fought Wang Yin with the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force, Master Xinghuo had instructed him that the different palm and fist forces absorbed into the void should be combined with different moves to maximize their power.

Shortly after Zhang Yu acquired the Three-Eyed Divine Power, while creating the 55-50 Battle Strategy, he also realized that this strategy could be integrated with the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force, greatly enhancing his counterattack power when facing powerful enemies.

When Zhang Yu's physical strength broke through to level 15, and his body and qi gradually became one, he had another new idea when he was working on the construction site using qi.

Just like at this moment, using the Three-Eyed Divine Power in conjunction with the Formless Cloud Qi, he simulated humanoid qi and unleashed the same moves as Cong Na.

Within the Formless Cloud Gang, the void opened by the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force released the tendon-severing palm force that Cong Na had just delivered.

To Cong Na's astonishment, streaks of humanoid energy emerged from behind Zhang Yu, striking her repeatedly with identical moves and palm strikes.

"He also practiced the Tendon-Severing Palm technique? And reached an extremely high level?"

Cong Na's first reaction was certainly not that Zhang Yu had stolen martial arts skills or absorbed her palm power; she simply thought that the opponent's Tendon-Severing Palm technique was of a very high level.

Faced with this situation, Cong Na chuckled, and layers of internal energy erupted from her body.

"It seems I really underestimated you before."

"Then I'll be a little more serious."

Cong Na threw a punch, unleashing a series of spiraling energies that hurtled towards Zhang Yu like a giant drill.

It is the Starry Sky Meridian Technique of the Earth and Wood system. When cultivated to a high level, it has the effect of opening mountains and drilling into the earth, rapidly excavating tunnels in mountains and underground.

At this very moment, Cong Na's punch caused the air to explode wherever the spiraling qi passed, and the humanoid qi blocking her way was torn apart like pieces of paper.

But the next moment, another humanoid aura rushed over, clenching its fist, bending its elbow, and then slamming out fiercely.

boom!
An identical spiral of qi suddenly erupted.

As Cong Na's fist collided fiercely with the fist of the humanoid qi, the explosive energy emanated from the point of impact, spreading in all directions and creating gusts of wind.

"He also knows the Starry Sky Meridian Explosion Technique?!" Cong Na was surprised again, but quickly realized what was going on.

"wrong."

The battle flashed through Cong Na's mind, and she thought to herself, "Did he absorb my power and then release it again?"

"What a brilliant use of leverage."

"What kind of martial art is this?"

There are many techniques that can draw in force, use force against force, and even deflect attacks, but Cong Na pondered for a moment and couldn't think of any one that had such a miraculous effect. Not only could it absorb and release her power, but it could even simulate her moves with its own qi.

However, although the humanoid aura in front of him released the Starry Sky Meridian Explosion Technique that he had just absorbed, it was ultimately not as powerful as Cong Na's. After a brief stalemate, it was shattered once again.

Cong Na took a deep breath, her eyes burning with even greater fighting spirit and determination.

"I never imagined that there would be a genius like you among this year's freshmen?"

"Hey! I'm talking to you."

Seeing Zhang Yu still focused on his work without turning his head, Cong Na grinned: "Arrogant freshman."

"Then try this trick again, can you imitate it?"

Cong Na's arms suddenly trembled, and holes appeared below her elbows. Martial arts energy was released at medium to high speed through the artificial meridians.

At the same time, the part below the elbow began to rotate even faster...

"In the Foundation Establishment stage, having powerful martial arts skills alone is useless."

"A powerful martial art, when paired with a suitable Dharma body, can unleash its full potential."

Cong Na understood that most college students were not qualified to learn and use military-grade martial arts techniques; expert-level techniques were the upper limit that everyone could learn.

In this situation, many students would choose to further enhance the power of their expert-level techniques by using a special artifact adapted to the technique.

At this moment, as Cong Na activates her Starry Sky Meridian Strike Arm, the power of her next punch will increase dramatically.

Just as Cong Na was about to make her move, a message popped up in her eyes.

Ma Xuan: Stop, Cong Na.

Cong Na: Why did you stop? My next punch would definitely defeat him.
Ma Xuan: It was just a test, why bother using the Starry Sky Arm?

Cong Na: Even without using my hand techniques, give me some time and I'll still defeat him.

Cong Na: He abuses his internal energy to use force against him. How long can his magic power last?
Ma Xuan: Cong Na, this is just a test, not a real battle. Don't get carried away.
Cong Na wanted to retort, but the other party's next words calmed her down. Ma Xuan: After fighting like this, the outer shell of your Starry Sky Arm will be worn out, right? And how many more times can you use your impact joints before you need to replace them?

Ma Xuan: Fighting Zhang Yu is quite time-consuming, laborious, and expensive.
Thinking about the maintenance bills for the Fahai, Cong Na immediately felt that it was best to keep the competition between classmates in moderation.

As her fighting spirit and will to fight were suppressed, Cong Na realized more and more that what Ma Xuan had just said was true.

"This guy... is pretty tough."

"It's still the kind of fight where you use someone else's strength against them, then you just have to take the hit head-on."

"If I continue fighting him, my Dharma Body will be significantly worn down."

If Cong Na had ever played games, then when she looked at Zhang Yu at this moment, she would feel that he was like one of those monsters in the game who was particularly good at depleting equipment durability. Even if she won, she would still have to spend a lot of money to repair the equipment.

Cong Na: So? You're planning to recruit him into the team?

Ma Xuan: If you encountered such an opponent in the department's selection competition, wouldn't you feel bad?
Cong Na narrowed her eyes slightly: It's a bit disgusting.
Ma Xuan: That's it. This Zhang Yu can not only psychologically annoy his opponents, but his skill of using their strength against them is also a powerful weapon. He's perfect for using this to delay the opponent's strongest fighter.

Cong Na felt a slight smile upon hearing this, as if she could already see the constipated expressions on the faces of the other upperclassmen when dealing with Zhang Yu.

Ma Xuan: Moreover, he has only been at Wanfa University for less than a year. When the departmental selection begins in the second half of this year, his strength will definitely increase significantly.

Meanwhile, on another floor of the Wanfa University City.

While communicating with Cong Na, Ma Xuan thought to himself, "Absorbing and reflecting the opponent's power with Qi... this technique seems to be the Nine Heavens Cloud Void Force, right?"

"To be able to master a former military-grade martial art, this technique, although currently rated as expert-level, is not something that can be bought casually."

"This Zhang Yu... can be our secret weapon."

On the other side, after finishing his work, Zhang Yu turned to Cong Na and asked somewhat strangely, "Why aren't you doing anything?"

Cong Na smiled slightly and said, "The strength you've displayed is enough to pass the test. And I don't like meaningless battles."

"What a coincidence, me too." Zhang Yu smiled upon hearing this, and subconsciously touched the green silk flying sword on his index finger.

If the opponent had just used the Starry Sky Meridian Explosion Technique in conjunction with the Dharma Body, then he would have no choice but to use the Green Silk Flying Sword given to him by Bai Zhenzhen.

Then Zhang Yu asked, "So... I passed?"

As an outstanding student at Wanfa University, Cong Na is also someone who accepts reality very quickly.

After learning about Zhang Yu's abilities, she changed her previous attitude towards ordinary freshmen and said politely, "I personally think you are perfectly capable, and you are welcome to join our competition team."

"But we have to wait for the other team members to agree first."

"Let's add each other as friends first. Once they accept, I'll add you to the group."

After saying goodbye to Cong Na, Zhang Yu flashed away and headed back towards the underground cemetery.

"It went surprisingly smoothly."

"That way, I can participate in the competition next semester."

Just then, news of Le Mulan appeared in his eyes.

Le Mulan: Zhang Yu, I feel like my magic power is about to undergo some kind of transformation.
Upon seeing this message, Zhang Yu's spirits lifted, thinking to himself that today was truly a day of double happiness.

Zhang Yu: Where are you? I'm coming over.

……

A moment later, Zhang Yu arrived at the dormitory and saw Le Mulan sitting cross-legged, emanating a chill that lowered the temperature of the entire dormitory.

After seeing Zhang Yu, Le Mulan said, "It feels like it's almost there, but it seems like it's still a little bit short."

Zhang Yu strode over and said, "Sit still, I'll lend you another hand."

As Zhang Yu channeled a surge of magical power into Le Mulan's body, Le Mulan slowly digested the power before suddenly feeling a tremor in her dantian.

The next moment, a terrifying chill swept through her entire body's meridians, centered on her dantian.

Wherever the chill passed, the magical power circulating within Le Mulan's body also underwent a sudden change, resulting in a qualitative transformation.

In the midst of this change, her blood and magical power seemed to stagnate, leaving her drowsy and in a state of semi-consciousness.

At this moment, her entire body seemed to be frozen, and her consciousness seemed to have entered a state of hibernation.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but when she came to her senses, she found that her meridians and magical power had undergone earth-shattering changes.

But before Le Mulan could fully sense the changes, she noticed that Zhang Yu behind her was stiff and motionless.

"Zhang Yu is frozen stiff?"

Le Mulan was startled: "Could it be that when he was transferring his magic power to me just now, it was affected by my internal energy?"
