Chapter 960 The Imminent [Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament]

Relentless effort + perfect qualifications + abundant resources + ample knowledge base + causal manipulation that predicts outcomes in advance...

With the full support of these factors.

Although Ling Wuyuan has not yet officially begun cultivating the [Thousand Light Cave Eye], the outcome can only be described as basically predetermined.

It's only been a few days.

Ling Wuyuan then had a general plan for the whole matter and began to formally cultivate various related [acquired supernatural powers] in sequence.

That was an incredibly complicated solution.

but.

Throughout the entire process.

In order not to interfere with doing other things.

Instead of choosing to remain in seclusion in the secret chamber, Ling Wuyuan memorized numerous methods for cultivating [acquired supernatural powers] and then left the chamber, intending to cultivate in the outside world...
-
Time continues to pass.

The date was drawing near, and the official start time of the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament was fast approaching.

At this moment.

Although Ling Wuyuan has not yet completed the cultivation of the Thousand Lights Mysterious Eye, he has mastered dozens of related acquired supernatural abilities and perfectly integrated them into his original power system, making them a part of the Dao of the Only One and the Death Omen. This has even made his true form stronger and more unpredictable.

This level of efficiency is something outsiders simply cannot comprehend.

However, even so, it still caused Wu Yuan to be distracted by other things.

If he were willing to temporarily set aside everything else and devote himself entirely to cultivating the [Thousand Lights Mysterious Eye], his related efficiency could easily double...

But that's unlikely.

Ling Wuyuan is a guy who strives to be powerful in every aspect.

Unless it is necessary.

otherwise.

Even though the [Thousand Lights Mysterious Eye] is very useful, he still can't devote himself to it wholeheartedly.

to be honest.

Other matters are equally important, but the importance of the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament is far from enough to overshadow them...

Whether it's continuing to read information from various conventional books through [Knowledge of All Things], trying to further hone his skills in other areas, or further improving "The Way of My Own" and [Death Omens of Calamity]... all of these require Ling Wuyuan to invest a great deal of time and energy.

This is a genuine multi-faceted simultaneous advancement, and an intensity of work that exceeds the imagination of others.

In every sense of the word.

As long as you can achieve your goals.

Ling Wuyuan didn't actually mind being treated like livestock.

even……

Even real livestock wouldn't behave like this.

Unless one's vitality and recovery ability are strong enough.

I reckon he died from overwork a long time ago.

It doesn't matter if he's a cultivator.

Intensive research into things that are extremely mentally taxing can truly lead to mental exhaustion...

now.

Looking up at the blazing sun in the sky.

After letting out a light yawn, Yao Yueyan was tending to various flowers, plants, and trees in the courtyard.

She turned her beautiful eyes directly to Ling Wuyuan, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed not far away, seemingly practicing diligently.

"There's only one week left until that Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament starts. Wu Yuan, don't you need to prepare a little?"

She wasn't worried that her words would disturb Ling Wuyuan.

After spending a long time together, she was quite certain that Ling Wuyuan was the kind of person who would find a quiet place to be alone if he didn't want to be disturbed, and it was impossible for him to just sit in the middle of the courtyard like this.

Hearing her nonchalant tone, although she didn't open her eyes, Ling Wuyuan immediately responded:
"I don't feel there's much to prepare; I just need to keep myself in good condition."

That was an extremely understated tone.

There was absolutely no worry or tension whatsoever.

It's as if we're just going out for a stroll.

"Okay~"

"They really seem very confident."

Say it.

She couldn't help but criticize herself:

"I wonder when I'll be able to reach the [Mingyi Realm]..."

"You broke through in just a little time before... This world is truly utterly unfair."

Between words.

It's filled with the helplessness of ordinary players.

To this, Ling Wuyuan could only give a perfunctory reply:
"If you really want to break through quickly, taking more elixirs and pills is a good option."

"Anyway, given the resources of the Snow Moon Cloud Pavilion, they actually have quite a few medicines of that quality."

next moment.

His proposal was immediately rejected by Yao Yueyan.

"Drugs?"

"Then forget it..."

"Although there are indeed many drugs in the sect with few side effects, those who advance through taking drugs will ultimately miss out on many crucial insights compared to those who work hard on their own."

"...Tch~ You've really gone too far~"

"People are extremely envious of your circumstances!"

While the two were chatting.

Having just finished her daily training, Pei Yiman slowly walked into the courtyard and said to Ling Wuyuan, "Wuyuan, Pavilion Master Su asked me to ask you, do you plan to go to the venue of the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament earlier, or do you plan to rush there just in time for the grand finale?"

Hearing this kind of question.

Although she longed to answer the question with the classic, universal answer—"Whatever"—Ling Wuyuan knew that wouldn't be appropriate. Instead, she opened her eyes, which were radiating a faint glow, and replied:
"...Let's do it sooner rather than later."

"That's better than being late."

He certainly didn't value the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament much.

But no matter what, he had promised Su Qingyue that he would show his face.

Therefore, he naturally had no intention of shirking responsibility in the relevant matters.

Since you've sincerely agreed...

Then we must do it seriously.

This is one of his life principles.

"Is that so... Then I'll talk to Pavilion Master Su this afternoon and ask her to arrange the time in advance."

Done.

After stroking her chin in thought for a moment, Pei Yiman said with some confusion, "However, I feel that Pavilion Master Su seems to be quite looking forward to this matter. I wonder what's so special about that Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament that makes her value it so much... Could there be some hidden secret behind it!?"

Hear the words.

Ling Wuyuan, who was also somewhat puzzled by the matter, immediately spoke the truth:
"I'm not so sure either."

"All I know is that Pavilion Master Su does care about this matter."

Neither he nor Pei Yiman realized that Su Qingyue was simply petty and wanted to prove her judgment to everyone... They assumed she had some special goal or that the Jade Court Martial Arts Tournament actually contained some unknown secret.
