Gao Wu: My martial arts technique has entries.

Chapter 42 Accident
Chu Kuang smiled upon hearing this. He had heard that even in the top classes, only a handful of students were qualified to receive the first-class scholarship, and most could only get the second-class scholarship.

As for the top scholarship, only Ye Qingfeng from No. 3 Middle School has received it in recent years.

In fact, starting from the second-class scholarship, the rewards are no longer simply federal currency, but include various rare source energy artifacts.

This treasure is of great benefit to Chu Kuang's cultivation.

Thinking of this, Chu Kuang couldn't help but smile and say, "Then thank you very much."

"You deserve this, and the first-class scholarship has strict requirements. Whether you can pass the assessment depends on your strength and potential."

Chu Kuang nodded upon hearing this, and then said, "My Iron Armor Technique is now complete. I would like to apply to you directly for the next technique."

Xu Yue decisively passed on the Copper Armor Technique to Chu Kuang, and after thinking for a moment, he directly gave Chu Kuang the access rights, saying, "Your strength is progressing rapidly now, and it's a waste of time for you to keep asking me for the technique."

"I'm giving you the authority. Once you've perfected your cultivation technique, you can directly apply for subsequent techniques."

He paused slightly at this point, then said, "Of course, this only goes as far as the apprentice level."

Chu Kuang nodded. In order to prevent the cultivation techniques from being learned by alien races and to protect the interests of the creators of the techniques, cultivation techniques above the first level in human civilization are not free.

You can either earn credits by entering university, exchange them using federal currency and human points, or get special approval from the university's higher-ups.

If Chu Kuang wants to obtain subsequent cultivation techniques in the future, he will basically have to follow these three paths.

Getting back to the main point, Chu Kuang obtained the cultivation method of the Copper Armor Technique and immediately began to cultivate in seclusion without wasting any time, while Xu Yue provided guidance from the side.

Although Xu Yue had never practiced the Copper Armor Technique, his superior martial arts skills and perspective would greatly benefit Chu Kuang's cultivation of this technique.

During his cultivation, Chu Kuang discovered that the Copper Armor Technique was at least three times more difficult to cultivate than the Iron Armor Technique, and the difficulty of breaking through the bottleneck was probably also about three times that of the Iron Armor Technique.

Fortunately, Chu Kuang had the "General Outline of External Kung Fu" entry to his advantage, and he also had a solid foundation in Iron Armor Kung Fu and basic external kung fu. So, he made rapid progress in the early stages of his cultivation, and it only took him half an hour to master the basics of Copper Armor Kung Fu.

"At this rate, without a shortage of nutrient solution, the Copper Armor Technique can be mastered to a minor level in one month, a major level in three months, and a perfect level in nine months."

Chu Kuang thought to himself, this speed is already quite fast. After all, with the blessing of the golden attribute, his external martial arts talent is equivalent to that of a genius with top-grade root bone.

If it were a top student like Jiang Feng with a seventh-grade talent, it would probably take him at least three to five years of arduous training to perfect the Copper Armor Technique, and he might not even be able to break through that barrier.

Without the fortuitous opportunities in the Dark Realm, most elite students in top classes would find it difficult to perfect their intermediate internal and external martial arts skills within three years of high school.

"To be able to grasp the basics in such a short time, your comprehension is probably truly exceptional, or at least very close."

Seeing that Chu Kuang had mastered the basics of the Copper Armor Technique, Xu Yue couldn't help but smile.

At this point, he suddenly said seriously, "With your current strength, you have a very good chance of being in the top 100 of your grade this time."

"With one month left, you should seize the opportunity to further improve your strength. The Dark Realm trip during the final exams will be a significant opportunity."

Chu Kuang was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What kind of opportunity?"

"An opportunity that can break through the limits of your cultivation technique." Xu Yue said, then a smile appeared on his lips. "If you can seize the opportunity, even if it's just to get a share, you might be able to make a great leap forward in your strength."

"At least it will greatly increase your cultivation speed of the Copper Armor Technique, and significantly shorten the time it takes to break through to perfection." Upon hearing this, Chu Kuang nodded immediately and said, "Then I will work hard."

"Ah."

Xu Yue nodded, then looked out the porthole at Tianyuan C Star, which was getting closer and closer, and said, "We're almost home. You've been working hard for three days. Go back and rest for a day."

Chu Kuang nodded, watching the Crocodile Dragon land at Tianheng No. 3 Middle School, and then returned home with the others.

On his way home, just as he was about to share the good news with Chu's mother, he noticed something was wrong. He saw Chu's mother in the living room, her eyes filled with tears.

A one-armed man in tattered armor was speaking to her, his eyes filled with intense anger.

Chu Kuang recognized this person; he was Lin He, a teammate of Chu's father in the same squad. Lin He had mastered a perfected beginner-level external martial art and his life level was around 7.6. He was a key member of Chu's father's squad.

But at this moment, Lin He had lost an arm, which clearly indicated that he had not suffered an ordinary battle.

With the technology of human civilization today, as long as the severed arm can be found, reattaching it will not leave too many sequelae.

But Lin He couldn't even find his arm, which must mean he'd encountered some terrible trouble.

Thinking of this, Chu Kuang's heart skipped a beat: "Uncle Lin, what happened that brought you here this time?"

At this point, Chu Kuang's heart trembled slightly, and he had a bad feeling.

Upon seeing Chu Kuang return, Lin He immediately spoke with a solemn expression: "Our trip to the Dark Domain of Ceres was originally quite fruitful, but we were ambushed by the Green Fang Squad."

"At that time, we broke out separately, and Captain Li and Brother Chu were chased by the Green Snake Squad. I escaped with one arm severed. I came to you this time to ask for reinforcements to rescue people."

Upon hearing this, Chu Kuang's expression changed drastically, and he immediately picked up his spear and prepared to leave.

But Lin He grabbed him and said with an extremely solemn expression, "The Dark Domain is dangerous. Don't go in and die."

Chu Kuang quickly calmed down and asked directly, "How long ago were Father and the others being hunted down? How many people are in the Green Fang Squad, and what is their strength?"

"The battle took place four hours ago. There were five of them, most of whom were between level 7.5 and 8."

"But their captain, Snake, is extremely strong, with a life level of at least 8.5. Even Captain Li Gang is no match for him."

Chu Kuang's heart sank. His father's life level was as high as 8.5 at his peak, but he lost an arm, which greatly reduced his overall strength. He was definitely no match for Snake Brother.

Li Gang is quite strong, but his life level is only around 8.2, so he is probably no match for Snake Brother.

"Four hours should be enough if they don't get stuck in traffic."

Chu Kuang thought to himself, with the vitality of his father and the others, as long as they tried their best to escape, they might still have a chance to survive, or at least buy some time. So he looked at Lin He and asked, "Have you found any other help?"

Lin He gave a wry smile and then said, "I can't rely on any of my brothers and sisters. I heard that your father has many brothers and sisters, so I came to see if there are any experts among them who are willing to go to his rescue?"
