I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

If you were to pluck all of that professor's hair, how much divinity would that be...?

"Okay, I've already made plans to go shopping with my classmates."

Xue Wan smiled and spoke.

I'll be there for your match this afternoon.

"I'll leave first."

She said goodbye.

"I'll see you off." Xue Jing stood up.

After seeing his sister to the door, Xue Jing closed the door, returned to his room, and looked at the more than a thousand points of divinity on the panel, his face showing contemplation.

"We're somewhat wealthy, but how are we going to spend it?"

Should I level up Twins or Shadowflame?

Alternatively, you can directly upgrade the Plantation Contract to Lv4...

"As for twins, neither of them currently has an urgent need for double the effect."

"But the increased duration of active effects from leveling up, and the reduced cooldown of passive resurrection, are also quite good."

Xue Jing thought to himself.

"Shadowflame... Upgrading it further can increase the strength of the activated substance, as well as the annihilation power of the 'blue bar' and itself."

"We can pilot even bigger Gundams!"

Thinking about it this way, Shadowflame's priority is currently higher than Twins.

"However, let's upgrade the plant contract first."

It only takes 100 Divinity Points to upgrade from Lv1 to Lv2, which is extremely cost-effective. Even after upgrading, you will still have more than 900 points left, enough to upgrade Twin or Shadowflame.

Xue Jing clicked to upgrade.

【Plant Bond Lv2 (Divinity required for upgrade: 928/300)】

After Lv2, the skill names that had been dimmed due to the contract with the Oxygen Tree Seed suddenly became much brighter.

It has turned into a dull appearance, much like when it only had a spider plant in its contract.

Xue Jing reached out and touched the spider plant seeds on the table next to him, re-bonding them.

The skill name of Plant Pact dimmed a little more, but not noticeably.

"Great, the 'blue bar' has improved significantly."

"Try the intensity changes."

Xue Jing took out the dark red seeds from his pocket and threw them on the ground along with the spider plant seeds.

Instantly, green root tendrils and sword-like leaves sprouted from the two seeds, dancing wildly in the air and attacking each other under Xue Jing's control.

After a series of crackling collisions, countless thick roots and leaves engaged in a complex battle, like two armies clashing. Before long, wood chips and broken leaves were scattered all over the ground.

Overall, the spider plant was clearly showing signs of fatigue, suffering a steady defeat at the hands of the oxygen-absorbing tree.

"After all, it's a noble and special plant from another world. It's normal that we can't beat it. The contract consumption is on a completely different level."

Xue Jing nodded.

"The quality of the spider plant's leaves has improved, and the maximum length of its propagation growth has increased from more than ten meters to nearly thirty meters, which is good."

He was having a great time playing when the cat next to him sat on the sofa, watching the magical scene of plants dancing wildly in front of him, lost in thought.

"Is this what a martial artist is like?"

I wonder what old man Li Qi would think if he saw this scene.

Martial Arts: From Beginner to Magic Mastery?

……

Chapter 139 U19, Xue Jing makes his appearance, shocking the entire audience! Fate is like a knife, indefensible, one strike and he's dead (8K)

Around 2 PM.

Inside the room, Xue Jing waved his hand, causing the oxygen-absorbing tree and spider plant to grow in reverse and curl into seeds. The wood chips and broken leaves on the ground also gathered together without wind, forming a small mountain.

Black energy emerged from the shadows, condensing into a black flame at Xue Jing's fingertip. With a flick of his finger, he sent it flying onto a small hill of wood chips and fallen leaves.

The black flames floated down onto the hill, suddenly expanded, and burst into flames. In no time, they silently annihilated the hill into nothingness.

"Teacher Wan, I'm going to a competition, do you want to come with me?" Xue Jing looked at the cat lying on the soft bed.

The latter yawned lazily: "No, I'm going to sleep."

Xue Jing picked up the Futu Knife beside him and casually said, "Then I'm leaving. Don't open the door to strangers while you're alone in the room."

The cat retorted, "Am I a child?"

Xue Jing smiled, said nothing more, got up, went to the door, opened it, and went out.

He took the elevator to the hotel lobby, where several familiar figures were already sitting in the lounge area.

The tall and strong Yin Muhu... and the group from the Xuanjiao Club who were sitting far away from her, the short Du Mingluan, Xiahou whose shoulder had been crushed by Xue Jing, and the middle-aged man Uncle Li.

The elimination rounds officially started at 4 PM, and the contestants had to arrive early. These contestants, like Xue Jing, were all ready to set off.

Xue Jing's arrival elicited various reactions from those present.

Du Mingluan's youthful and handsome face hardened, and he stared at the Futu Knife in Xue Jing's hand for a while.

When Xue Jing looked over, Xiahou instinctively avoided his gaze, not daring to meet his eyes directly, and unconsciously touched his right shoulder.

Yin Muhu was the most natural. Upon seeing Xue Jing, a slight smile appeared on his muscular, rugged face, and he greeted her in a surprisingly sweet, girlish voice:

"Brother Xue."

Xue Jing smiled and nodded at her, "Sister Yin."

"Your match isn't until tomorrow, right? Are you going to watch it live today?"

Yin Muhu said, "Of course we need to. Everyone who can participate in this elimination tournament is a master. Even just watching can teach us a lot. Some things can only be experienced live; you can't see them in videos."

Xue Jing smiled and said, "My manager, Sister Wei, will be picking me up in a car later. You can ride with me."

Yin Muhu thought about it for a moment. She didn't have any plans and was going to take a taxi anyway. Since there was a car she could hitch a ride with, she was happy to accept. So she nodded and agreed.

As the two were talking, Xue Jing's phone rang.

He took his phone out of his pocket, glanced at the screen, and saw that it was Jiang Siwei calling. He then pressed the answer button.

"Hey, Sister Wei."

"You've reached the door? I'll be right out."

After hanging up the phone, Xue Jing said to Yin Muhu, "Let's go, Sister Yin."

Yin Muhu stood up, walked to Xue Jing's side, and the two walked side by side towards the door.

At this moment, Du Mingluan suddenly spoke up.

"Xue Jing".

"Hmm?" Xue Jing stopped and turned his head slightly, glancing at him with some curiosity.

"See you on the field... Don't lose halfway through." Du Mingluan looked at Xue Jing and said with a solemn expression.

Yesterday's draw ceremony saw him draw the eighth match, placing him in the same half of the draw as Xue Jing, who drew the sixth match.

This bracket will ultimately determine two players who advance. If he and Xue Jing both win their first two matches, they will meet in the third match.

Only one of the two can advance.

As the most expensive young prodigy in the outer ring last year, few of the people participating in the Maple City elimination tournament this time can be taken seriously by him.

Xue Jing was one of them.

After the draw results came out, he regarded Xue Jing as his only opponent in this knockout round.

Xue Jing glanced at him, simply nodded, and smiled, "Good luck to you too."

Yin Muhu, standing to the side, had a strange expression.

After they left the hotel, Xiahou Shen glanced at Du Mingluan and clicked his tongue in disapproval:

"You met your destined rival when you were young, didn't you? Ah, youth."

"But why do I feel like they don't take you seriously at all?"

Du Mingluan sneered, "Your psychological trauma is too great, isn't it? Your testicles and shoulders were crushed by that person?"

His gaze followed Xue Jing's retreating figure, a mixture of seriousness and confidence appearing on his youthful, handsome face.

"I will win."

Xiahou Shen shrugged: "Don't let yourself get killed halfway through and not even have the right to stand in front of others."

……

Fengcheng Gymnasium.

This is one of the largest sports stadiums in the outer ring of the fifth metropolitan area, capable of accommodating nearly 20,000 spectators.

A dark red sedan slowly came to a stop in the parking lot outside the stadium.

The rear door opened, and Yin Muhu's massive body emerged with considerable difficulty, letting out a soft breath:

"We've finally arrived!"

Her body shape makes riding in a car a torment; she can only squeeze in by bending over and curling up into a ball, and she's in a bent-over position the whole time.

On the other side, the passenger door opened, and Xue Jing stepped out, carrying the Futu Knife, and looked around.

The stadium doors were already open, and long queues had formed at the entrance, allowing people to enter in an orderly manner.

The plaza outside the stadium was also packed with people, filled with spectators who came to watch the game.

After parking the car, Jiang Siwei walked up to the two of them, carrying a briefcase, and smiled:

"Let's go to the main gate first. There's an internal staff entrance there, so we can go straight in."
