The Fourth Calamity: People in High Martial Arts, Gods in Games

Chapter 167 Nationwide Frenzy

"Extraordinary martial arts skills".

"A fusion of super martial arts techniques?"

Lin Qi carefully read through the system prompts and couldn't help but marvel at the player's creativity and practical skills.

Even among experts at the Bone Forging Realm, few could master such extraordinary martial arts techniques. Yet, the player managed to create an eighth-level extraordinary martial arts technique.

According to the classification of martial arts techniques in the world of high-level martial arts, the theoretical upper limit of the comprehensive burst of the seventh stage is only nine times, and the lower limit is six times, while the lower limit of the comprehensive burst of extraordinary martial arts techniques is ten times.

As for the Warrior-level Lightning Palm that players learn, which is the fifth-stage martial skill, its theoretical maximum overall burst damage is four times, and its minimum is 2.5 times.

The minimum for the sixth level of martial arts is four times, and the maximum is six times.

Although this burst refers to a comprehensive burst of combat power, with the minimum requirement of extraordinary martial arts being ten times that of ordinary martial arts, even a beginner martial artist could probably threaten a Bone Forging Realm martial artist if they mastered it. If it were an attack method with extreme penetrating power, like the electromagnetic cannon, the effect would be even more terrifying.

It's like an ordinary person trying to fire a railgun at him. If the distance is too close, once the railgun is fired, even someone comparable to a mid-level martial artist like him will be hit and even killed.

"We're still missing two extraordinary martial arts skills. It seems we should reward Ye Qinglu properly." Lin Qi looked at the player name in the mission display and felt it was necessary to motivate the other players to create extraordinary martial arts skills as soon as possible.

Extraordinary martial arts techniques all possess the power to transcend levels. As long as he fuses one of them, he will be able to put up a fight against a Bone Forging Realm martial artist.

Even if the four major powers overturn the table and spend huge sums of money to hire experts to assassinate him, he no longer needs to worry.

With that thought in mind, Lin Qi walked out of the lounge.

The martial arts hall was unusually quiet, with everyone gathered in the combat room. When they saw Lin Qi come out, they made way for him.

"The curator has arrived."

"I hope the museum master won't punish Sister Ye for damaging Mentor Number One now."

As everyone watched Lin Qi walk towards Ye Qinglu, they couldn't help but whisper among themselves, feeling that Ye Qinglu was a bit wronged. She was just testing her newly created martial arts technique when she destroyed Instructor Number One. The penalty points would definitely be substantial, since Lin Qi, the head of the martial arts school, had once treasured Instructor Number One.

Just as Ye Qinglu was about to explain, Lin Qi walked up to her and patted her on the shoulder.

"You did very well!" Lin Qi said with a smile. "As an elite disciple of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, it is rare in the history of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy to create a transcendent-level martial skill. As a reward, I have decided to give you a set of elite disciple uniforms and a B4-level longsword."

As he spoke, Lin Qi handed the sword at his waist to Ye Qinglu and at the same time upgraded Ye Qinglu's clothes for free in the system.

"What's going on? There's a reward for breaking Instructor Number One?"

"Didn't you hear this is a reward for creating extraordinary martial arts techniques?"

"Extraordinary martial arts technique? What level of martial arts technique is this?"

"My goodness! Is the museum owner really that generous? A B4-level weapon! This is probably the strongest weapon currently available!"

Everyone was incredibly envious of the praise and reward Lin Qi gave to Ye Qinglu. Even Luo Wushang, who had returned to the martial arts school, felt a pang of envy when she saw the B4-grade longsword Ye Qinglu was holding.

Currently, the highest-end weapon in the martial arts school is only a B2-level weapon. Unless the use of a railgun is employed, B2-level weapons are not very effective against enemies equipped with B2-level armor or protective gear.

But if you have a B4-level weapon, it's a completely different story. Just a few dozen hits are enough to break through the defenses of a B2-level armor, and the opponent's B2-level weapon won't last long either.

"Extraordinary martial arts!"

"Just what kind of monster is this disciple of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy?"

When Meng Wei and the other two heard Lin Qi's words, although they had already guessed some of it, they were still deeply shocked to receive Lin Qi's acknowledgment.

For ordinary people, extraordinary martial arts skills may not be what they represent, but Meng Wei, as a martial artist in the association, knows a lot about martial arts skills.

I know very well what an extraordinary martial arts skill represents.

In a time when even martial artists at the Bone Forging Realm have few opportunities to learn, how could a disciple of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy create something on his own? Who would believe that?

"Teacher, do you think that if we can make great contributions at the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy in the future, we will have the opportunity to learn this extraordinary martial arts technique?" Qiao Hanlan couldn't help but ask Meng Wei quietly. Even though he had lost an arm, the burning passion in his eyes could not be extinguished. In fact, it burned even brighter when he looked at Ye Qinglu.

Having lost an arm, his path to becoming a martial artist was essentially cut short. Even if he did become a martial artist, he would still be crippled, since current technology cannot regenerate severed arms. At most, one could get a prosthetic arm. However, a prosthetic arm, if made of good materials, is indeed much stronger than a martial artist's arm, but many martial arts techniques would be unusable.

A martial artist who cannot use martial arts techniques is not even as strong as a quasi-martial artist who has mastered martial arts techniques at the highest level, and is not much different from a cripple.

But now Qiao Hanlan has seen a way!

A martial arts path even wider than before!

That's Ye Qinglu!

Like a legendary sword immortal, he can wield a sword to kill enemies and even travel on it, without needing to use his hands to fight. Moreover, even with only one arm remaining, he can still use the Thunder Light Three Forms that Ye Qinglu just used. His combat power is absolutely unprecedented in Qiao Hanlan's life.

"There should be a chance." Meng Wei looked at Ye Qinglu. His heart, which had previously had no expectations for the future, was now beating. He felt that choosing to join the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy was definitely the wisest choice he had ever made.

A genius like Ye Qinglu, who advanced to the rank of martial artist on his own and created extraordinary martial arts techniques, is still just a disciple of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy. It's unimaginable how rich and terrifying the Academy's foundation truly is.

Although his vital energy has declined, like Qiao Hanlan, he may still have a chance to advance further.

As for Jacqueline, who had been watching intently, her eyes lit up when she looked at Ye Qinglu. Although she knew that the Obsidian Martial Arts School was not simple, she did not expect it to be this simple, that a disciple of the school could create a superhuman martial arts technique.

With such a terrifying genius in the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, how can the Academy not flourish?

It can be said that as long as such a genius does not fall, Obsidian Martial Arts Academy will have no problem establishing itself in the city. In fact, after such a genius becomes a Bone Forging Realm martial artist, the powerful force that has been chasing her will probably be wary of her.

While everyone looked at Ye Qinglu with envy and awe, Ye Qinglu turned her attention to the player system panel and noticed a system notification that appeared after Lin Qi announced the reward of a set of elite disciple attire.

System: Player Ye Qinglu has obtained the Elite Disciple Outfit. Do you want to equip it now?

"Elite disciple attire?" Ye Qinglu thought for a moment and then selected to equip.

Previously, when the Martial Arts Tour arrived, it introduced martial arts school uniforms, but no one was interested. First of all, the uniforms for inner disciples cost 300,000 points. Using so many points just to change clothes is too extravagant.

If you really want to change your appearance, you can buy all kinds of clothes in the trading area of ​​Red Moon Mountain. However, these clothes are not as convenient for movement as the initial clothes, so no one buys them. At most, some female players will buy some accessories to wear. After all, as players, the most important thing is combat power, and the second thing is whether they look good.

Now that Lin Qi is giving away a set for free, Ye Qinglu is not going to be polite.

After Ye Qinglu clicked, the system issued another prompt.

System: Please log off and rest for ten seconds in an empty rest area. When you log back in, your basic outfit will be upgraded to elite disciple outfit.

Ye Qinglu didn't think too much about it and went straight back to her rest room. She logged off to rest for a bit and logged back in ten seconds later.

When Ye Qinglu logged in again, she was immediately shocked.

"How come this outfit has attributes?" Ye Qinglu looked at her system panel, looking at it again and again, wondering if she was seeing things.

After the event was relaunched, the elite disciples' attire was only slightly more formal than the basic attire, with the addition of a very fitted silver-gray long coat. The change was both significant and minor.

However, Ye Qinglu was very sensitive. After logging back in, she could feel that her blood and qi were circulating more smoothly. Although it was very faint, she could still sense it because her mental techniques had reached more than 30% of the beginner level.

I was just checking my own panel, and I didn't expect it to be true.

The clothing of elite disciples actually comes with its own attributes!

Elite disciple attire, with the added benefit of slightly increasing health and mana.

"Sis, what are you spacing out for? It's just a change of clothes, and this outfit isn't even that cool. You should hurry up and recruit some new members. There are a lot of new people who want to join our team because they want to know how you handle a longsword. Now we're waiting for you to teach them." Yi Ye Fuyun walked into Ye Qinglu's rest room and looked at Ye Qinglu with a strange expression.

Because of Ye Qinglu's skill, many returning newcomers have seen a new direction and feel that becoming a sword immortal is the way to go in the future.

Especially Ye Qinglu's lightning spear technique, which is far superior to their arrow throwing. Once they master the control of the longsword, they will never need to throw arrows again. They can hit wherever they want, and every shot will be accurate.

So they all rushed to join the team, waiting for Ye Qinglu to mentor the newcomers.

"No! Brother, take a look at this." Ye Qinglu didn't explain, but simply showed his panel data to Yi Ye Fuyun.

"Sis, I've already seen your panel, what else is there to see?" A Leaf in the Clouds urged. "Let's hurry up and recruit new members. This is a great opportunity for our team to surpass the other three teams."

As Yi Ye Fuyun was speaking, he glanced at Ye Qinglu's panel and froze.

"Additional ability: increased health and vitality? How is that possible! Aren't these clothes practically useless?"

Looking at the description of the clothing item, Yi Ye Fuyun felt like he had lost a fortune.
