I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

He seemed to have heard this before... He overheard a passerby mention it in the Extreme Martial Ascension Palace when he went to capture Zhao Longtu.

"..." Li Suisui was somewhat surprised.

"It seems you really don't know anything. No wonder you were born in the outer ring. How could you have reached this level in such a short time?"

Li Suisui scratched her tender, smooth cheek.

"The so-called 'True Form' is one of the oldest martial arts, which we call 'Martial Vein'."

"All the martial arts that exist today are basically derived from these 'most ancient martial arts lineages'. For example, your Hidden Dragon Style comes from the 'True Form Lineage'."

"This is the ancestor of all symbolic methods. All martial arts that are essentially about strengthening oneself by imitating external objects are based on 'true form'."

"The Hidden Dragon Style that you practice is derived from the 'True Form' technique of an ancient swordsman who imitated a dragon and created a move called 'Hidden Dragon in Sleeve.' Later, your master, Li Qi, obtained it and created the Hidden Dragon Style based on it."

Xue Jing asked curiously, "It sounds very powerful. Is the level of this 'True Form' technique very high? Is it higher than all other True Form martial arts?"

Li Suisui gave him a strange look: "Do you think this is a fantasy novel? How could there be such a thing as getting stronger the older you are?"

"True Form is the most ancient martial art, the earliest martial art to appear. It is extremely crude, even a dog would shake its head at it. It is worlds apart from any modern martial art. Its only advantage is its lofty ideal, which is to use the human body to reach all things in the world."

"I see." Xue Jing was somewhat disappointed.

“Martial artists who cultivate the True Form lineage are not popular nowadays. Humans are the most intelligent of all beings. If they do not seek their own self-improvement but rely on external things, the root cause is that they despise themselves and therefore are not recognized by true martial arts masters.”

"However... there is one exception, and that is the current 'True Dragon,' who brings forth ten thousand jades as dragons."

Li Suisui uttered a name that stirred Xue Jing's heart.

"This person is very powerful... The True Form lineage has reached a new peak in his hands. He is a person who has truly understood the mysteries of 'True Form' and is almost able to transform into a dragon."

"If you could get his guidance, with your talent, your progress would be unimaginable... but that's probably unlikely."

Having read Xue Jing's information, he knew about the feud between Canglongliu and Wan Yulai.

Xue Jing smiled but didn't say anything.

Afterwards, Li Suisui continued to talk to Xue Jing about martial arts, telling him a lot of knowledge that he had never known before, which broadened his horizons.

Twenty minutes later, Li Suisui stopped talking and sighed as she looked at Xue Jing, who still seemed quite relaxed and wanted to have a long chat with her.

"...You seem to be in a state where there's really no time limit."

As soon as Li Suisui arrived, after deducing everything that had just happened, she noticed the abnormality in Xue Jing's hair and pupils, and faintly heard the sound of Xue Jing's blood boiling and burning.

He immediately deduced that Xue Jing must have used some explosive martial art or divine secret technique to possess such terrifying strength.

Martial arts or secret techniques with this effect generally have time limits or put a huge burden on the body. As long as the time drags on, it will obviously be advantageous to him.

So Li Suisui started chatting... but unexpectedly, Xue Jing actually enjoyed it and continued chatting with him.

Even now, Xue Jing's blood flow remains almost unchanged, and he shows no signs of being overwhelmed or weak. Even his own emotional fluctuations show no sign of anxiety, clearly indicating that he is fearless.

Li Suisui also understood that either Xue Jing's burst of power could be maintained for a considerable period of time, or even if this state disappeared, he would still have other reliance.

There's no point in dragging this out.

"What, aren't you going to continue chatting, Xiao Sui?" Xue Jing said with a smile.

Li Suisui's lips twitched: "Don't call me that so intimately, our relationship isn't that close."

Xue Jing waved his hand and sighed, "We've been having such a good time chatting. Apart from not having a table to eat at, what's the difference between us and friends? By the way, I'll be cooking for the students later. You should come over too. Consider it payment for all the things you've told me."

She actually wanted to treat him to a meal... Li Suisui almost couldn't hold back.

He stood up, took a deep breath, and said, "Forget it, stop pretending. I'm here to take you down. Let's make our move."

Xue Jing smiled and slowly stood up.

"You're quite an interesting person... I really mean to invite you to dinner. If you're still alive, come find me in Block B2 later, and I'll treat you to a good meal."

Li Suisui frowned slightly: "Did you bring food in without permission? How did you do that?"

The exam rules stipulated that each person could only bring one set of officially provided supplies, and the checks were extremely strict. Supplies were extremely scarce, so not only were they not frugal, but they were even planning to treat him to a meal...

Xue Jing wouldn't let anyone have a say, so he just smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I've always been lucky. I'll probably find a lot of edible things if I wander around for a bit."

Li Suisui gave him a deep look:

"I really don't know if you're magnanimous or just genuinely look down on me..."

"If it's the latter, I'll make you regret it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Suisui disappeared from the spot.

Without any pause, from extreme stillness to extreme movement, Li Suisui's small fist was already pressed against Xue Jing's abdomen.

This incredible action of ignoring all preparation and going directly from 0 to 100 is one of the symbols of a master who breaks through limits!

Normal human actions always involve a process. The circulation of blood, bones, and muscles all require preparation. Just like even the most powerful sports car cannot instantly reach its top speed during the initial stage, but must go through a process.

However, humans who have broken through physical limits are different. All their actions are not through inefficient and low-end physical control methods such as brain nerve signals, but directly through an extremely powerful consciousness that covers every cell in their body.

All cells are integrated into one; when one moves, the whole body moves!

"Your hands aren't very clean."

Xue Jing chuckled and pressed his palm down swiftly, pinning Li Suisui's fist to the ground in the blink of an eye.

"boom--!!!!!!"

The steel-covered earth trembled violently, and the terrifying sound reverberated throughout all the examination areas, attracting the attention of countless people.

the other side.

The students, who were moving toward the target area under Xue Jing's orders, also encountered an accident.

As the group moved forward, they bumped into another group of examinees who were on a moving mission.

Both groups stopped and stared at each other warily from a short distance apart.

"...Brother Li, what should we do?" He Han asked in a low voice next to Chen Xingyan.

"As Professor Xue said, it is unwise to start a war with others before you have adapted to the gravity environment, as there are too many unexpected situations."

Chen Xingyan stood on the branch of a metal tree and spoke from above.

"The other party probably thinks the same way, but..."

His gaze fell on a figure at the very back of the opposite side.

That was the examiner in charge of the other class.

"Now that Teacher Xue isn't here, we can't be sure what the other party might think."

Chen Xingyan frowned.

When candidates encounter each other and a conflict occurs, the party with an examiner present has a significant psychological advantage over the party without an examiner present.

Although the examiner cannot attack any candidate, his overwhelming strength is so great that just his presence alone creates an invisible pressure. Moreover, he can save the lives of his candidates at crucial moments.

The party without an examiner is essentially without any guarantee of their life; they could very well be beaten to death.

One side is calm and composed, while the other is under immense pressure facing a life-or-death crisis, giving them a huge advantage. It's hard to guarantee that the other side won't have any ulterior motives... Especially since it's only the beginning and everyone's supplies are basically intact.

Chen Xingyan considered things from the other side's perspective. If he could take down so many people at the start, he would not only have a huge score advantage, but also be able to grab so many supplies, which would be very beneficial to the situation later on... He felt that this was a very tempting option.

However... if the other party really thinks that way, then they are very wrong.

Chen Xingyan narrowed his eyes.

He subtly made a few hand gestures, and several classmates watching him nodded in agreement and began to make hand gestures to the outer perimeter as well.

Soon, the coded message quietly spread throughout the class, and everyone was ready.

The class opposite seemed to have also been discussing amongst themselves for a while, and the examiner at the very back suddenly spoke up:

"move……"

And just as he opened his mouth...

"boom--!!!!"

Suddenly, a terrifying, earth-shattering roar came from afar—the dull sound of metal striking metal.

With a deafening roar, a massive, rapidly spreading wave of air surged forth, sweeping towards the area like a tsunami.

"What!?"

Everyone's expression changed instantly. They didn't have time to think and instinctively took various temporary measures to protect themselves before the gusts of wind and waves hit them.

"Boom boom boom boom——"

Like clothes caught in a washing machine, powerless, everyone was swept away and blown away by the huge waves of air, swaying erratically in the air.

"What the hell? Did a nuclear bomb explode?"

He Han shouted urgently from mid-air.

"The environment in the Sea of ​​Steel is just too harsh! There are Heavenly Cones and explosions everywhere!"

Zhao Longtu, who happened to be flying next to him, was hit by the wind pressure as soon as he opened his mouth. He covered his mouth with his hands before shouting, "...It seems to be coming from the direction of Teacher Xue."

The circular shockwave came and went quickly, and soon everyone was scattered and fell from the sky. Since they were all martial arts practitioners, most of them managed to land safely in mid-air with a quick twist. Only a few unlucky ones accidentally hit their heads on the way and passed out.

After this incident, the positions of the students in both classes were disrupted, and they lost their original fighting and conflict. They just looked in fright in the direction from which the shockwave came, not knowing what had happened.

"What's going on? Is it some strange natural phenomenon in the Sea of ​​Steel?"

"Seriously?! Exams are already hard enough, and now we have to face natural disasters like this all the time?! This exam is way too difficult!"

"I've read the complete data for The Sea of ​​Steel before, and I didn't see any explanation for this phenomenon."

"Teacher Xu, do you know what happened?"

Some students looked toward the examiner.

But the other person was just staring blankly in one direction, as if they had seen something extremely unbelievable, looking shocked and dazed.

Before anyone could ask any more questions, two intertwined figures came into view in the distant sky.
