Two Realms High Martial Arts: Gathering the Heavens to Become a Great Luo Immortal

Chapter 112 The Elite Clique, Reserved Dragon Blood (Two-in-One Chapter)

in the room

As Li Xijun pushed open the door, she smelled a faint fragrance.

Although it cannot compare to the incense for nourishing the spirit, the fragrance emitted by that kind of spiritual wood can refresh the mind and invigorate the spirit.

The room wasn't decorated in a very ornate style; the overall design leaned towards a traditional Chinese aesthetic.

As Li Xijun walked over and sat down, she realized that the room's fragrance seemed to be coming from this square table, which was neither stone nor wood, and was carved with strange patterns.

Li Xijun recalled the knowledge he had recently learned in "Materials Science of Mythical World" and instantly recognized it as sea marrow agarwood!

If this were outside, it would be a precious wood more valuable than rosewood in my previous life. I never expected that this mythical spiritual wood would be used as a table in the private room of the school cafeteria.

"Since this is your first time here, junior, I'll take the liberty of ordering some of the local specialties."

Zhang Ziyu, who arrived earlier, took the initiative to speak.

"Junior, you're in for a treat today. The private rooms in the West Cafeteria are filled with mythical creatures that rival those of the Transcendent Realm. Eating here is basically equivalent to taking a Hundred Herbs Elixir, and you don't have to worry about elixirs."

As Zhang Hao, who was sitting next to her, said this, he also picked up the teapot and poured a cup of calming tea for Li Xijun.

The nourishing tea that Zhou Shenghao and his friends once cherished on the second floor of the canteen at Yan'an No. 7 Middle School is now served like any other tea to guests.

"Then I'll have to look forward to it."

While Li Xijun was speaking, Zhang Ziyu tossed the menu into a large, seemingly decorative crystal pool. A golden carp leaped out, swallowed the menu, and quickly returned to the depths of the pool, disappearing from sight.

Almost immediately,

Suddenly, streaks of white light appeared in the crystal pool, and plates enveloped in bubbles formed by the white light floated in the air, slowly drifting down onto the sea marrow and sandalwood table, eventually transforming into a fragrant feast.

Li Xijun was somewhat surprised by the scene.

He always orders takeout from his private villa, number 001, and the meals he eats are standard meals that contain a good amount of spiritual energy.

This is truly the first time I've ever seen such a scene.

However, Zhang Hao perfectly played the role of warming up the atmosphere, enthusiastically explaining the feast made from these mythical creature ingredients.

Li Xijun also enjoyed the delicious food, and indeed felt a good spiritual energy being absorbed by her body. Although it couldn't compare to spiritual resources or rare treasures, it still had a certain effect.

After finishing their meal amidst laughter and conversation, the two sides naturally got down to business.

"As a formal member of the student council, the senior student does have some authority."

Zhang Ziyu looked expectantly at the boy in front of her and said:

"If you're interested, junior, how about I introduce you to our student council?"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior."

Li Xijun didn't beat around the bush and agreed directly.

This made Zhang Ziyu smile immediately, while Zhang Hao, on the other hand, was secretly clenching his fist under the table, feeling envious.

"That's great! Here, I'll add you to the student council group right away!"

After Li Xijun agreed, Zhang Ziyu, whose concern for Li Xijun had instantly grown closer, became much more relaxed in her speech.

"Those guys in the student council have been interested in you for a while now. They're probably green with envy now that they know I brought you into the group."

As Zhang Ziyu finished speaking,

After being added to the "Student Council - A Loving Family" group,

Li Xijun, who changed her nickname to her real name and a selfie profile picture, has indeed attracted a lot of attention.

Jiang Shaotian (How did you know I'm the sophomore top student?): "Hmm? The newcomer is that freshman Li Xijun?"

Lan Yixiang (Watch my Huaqing Fist!): "Welcome, welcome! Junior, now that you're in the student council, you're one of us. If anyone causes trouble in the future, just mention my name."

Tachibana Mengya (Kafka's One Hundred Years of Solitude): "Welcome, junior Li, to the student council. Oh dear, I didn't expect senior Zhang to beat me to it."

The senior students in the student council were quite enthusiastic when they saw Li Xijun.

The barrage of questions made him feel uncomfortable for a while.

Shouldn't a place like the student council be:

Is this a place where the upperclassmen and women are all pretentious and bureaucratic, young in age but speaking in a greasy manner, and who don't like each other and scheme against each other to become president?

He Wushuang (President): "Alright, it's Li Xijun's first time here, everyone be quiet."

The once lively group chat suddenly fell silent.

It's clear that Chairman He's words still carry considerable weight inside.

He Wushuang: "The five-school joint martial arts competition is quite important. Junior, please take care of your business first. I'll host a banquet to welcome you back after the competition. Until then, let's just send you a small red envelope to celebrate."

After she finished speaking, Li Xijun saw more than ten red envelopes appear on the chat page.

He randomly clicked on one and then...

[You've won 2.9 yuan in this red envelope giveaway!]

"Um?"

Li Xijun took a closer look, and then couldn't help but look up at Zhang Ziyu opposite her.

"Senior, did the student council president send this to the wrong person?"

He can grab tens of thousands of yuan from just one red envelope. If he grabs ten or so red envelopes, he must have lost at least several million yuan!

"That's right, just a few million."

Zhang Ziyu responded instinctively at first, then, as if remembering something, she smiled and said:

"Oh, it seems you haven't realized yet, junior, that this is the Qingquan Chunhui Hall."

"The guild leader is a martial artist at the realm of intent, and he has already successfully mastered the exterior-level techniques."

He could easily earn hundreds of millions by simply accepting a mission and venturing into the mythical world; that amount of money was a piece of cake for him.

At this point, Zhang Ziyu continued:

"In fact, our meal tonight alone cost over 400,000. Junior, your understanding of the Transcendent Realm and the Intent Realm martial artists is still not clear enough."

These words made Li Xijun realize the truth instantly.

The student council of Qingquan Chunhui Hall represents a high-level clique of the most elite members of the school.

These schools will give them preferential treatment, and the talented martial artists who will represent the country in the [Global National Games] are all extremely powerful martial artists.

The people inside are very likely to be martial artists from the outer realms, individuals with extremely high social status, like Su Nianying before them.

Once you graduate, you never know who might become a powerful connection with you.

This is why everyone in the group is so enthusiastic and there is such a friendly and helpful atmosphere.

Having figured all this out, Li Xijun immediately grabbed the red envelopes with lightning speed, and also gave friendly responses to He Wushuang and the others.

He's not some aloof person.

Now that I'm a member of this small circle,

Being able to enjoy the benefits of mutual help,

So naturally, one's perspective is determined by one's position.

the other side,

Having witnessed Li Xijun's transformation and performance, Zhang Ziyu became increasingly satisfied with her junior and then spoke up:

"By the way, junior, I have some news about the five-school joint competition next month."

"Please go ahead, senior."

Li Xijun looked over curiously and poured tea for the other person.

This made Zhang Ziyu, sitting opposite her, purse her bright red lips slightly and chuckle softly:

"You're using virtual space for this battle, a competition that only tests your martial arts skills, right?"

"My friend who is a junior at Weiming Linlang Pavilion said that a genius named Ye Ningxue has emerged in their freshman class today. Although her blood and qi level was only 9.5 at the time, she had martial arts skills at the [Microscopic] level as soon as she entered school, and she cleared the first six levels of the Nine-Layer Demon Tower on the first day."

"Later, he was personally instructed by a Vajra Realm dean from the Unnamed Linglang Pavilion. After these past few months, it is said that he is about to break through to the Perfection of the Subtle Realm."

"Although your swordsmanship is also at the subtle level, you still need to be careful when facing that person."

Upon hearing that the other party was able to pass the first six levels of the Nine-Layer Demon Tower upon entering the academy, Li Xijun's expression became much more serious.

"Heroes are as numerous as fish crossing a river; this 'Ten-Year Talent Cultivation Program' has truly produced many top geniuses."

Zhang Ziyu couldn't help but sigh softly.

She worked hard for two years in college, and now, as a junior, she has finally achieved a satisfactory level of mastery.

As a result, Li Xijun has now reached the level of the Microscopic Realm, and their old rival next door has produced a genius with an even higher level of martial arts skill than Li Xijun.

She felt a pang of sadness and emotion.

"Thank you for reminding me, senior. I will do my best," Li Xijun said gratefully.

Realizing that there was such a master in this five-school joint competition,

He plans to quickly increase his proficiency in the [Ten Thousand Blades Return to Flow] skill.

Ideally, you should practice until you reach the Master level, achieving 100% mastery and perfection.

As for the [White Tiger Seven Killings Style]...

This sword technique, which kills and injures both the user and the opponent, is so powerful that if it were used, even in a virtual space, the soul of the person entering it would likely suffer immense damage.

Li Xijun herself also experiences some backlash every time she uses it.

However, his swordsmanship level is not high enough yet, and his body is constantly evolving by absorbing spiritual energy, which has basically offset the backlash of killing power each time.

If this were a Marrow Cleansing Master in the Great Sheng World who couldn't absorb spiritual energy, using such a terrifying sword technique too often would basically mean he wouldn't have many years left to live.

Unless absolutely necessary, Li Xijun would not want to use this sword technique in a martial arts competition.

Seeing that Li Xijun had heeded her advice, Zhang Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief.

She had previously feared that Li Xijun was the kind of arrogant genius like Lan Yixiang, who was conceited, extremely proud, and completely unwilling to listen to advice.

Looking back now, the fact that the other party showed this attitude makes it worthwhile to continue the relationship.

"Speaking of which, you have quite a network of connections, senior. Even Lisa didn't go into as much detail as you have."

"Hehehe, among the candidates for our Great Xia National Team this year, there is a friend I get along with. She happens to be in the student council of Weiming Linlang Pavilion. I found out about her by chance during a casual chat."

When Zhang Ziyu talked about her status as a member of the National University team's preliminary selection this year, she unconsciously straightened her chest.

That night

When Li Xijun opened his redemption shop, he received the reward for ranking first in this practical exercise: 10 credits.

"The spiritual treasure that can be redeemed for 10 points is quite good."

"But according to Teacher Lisa's calculations, the remaining [Earth Core Tempering Milk] is enough for me to raise my life level to 13."

"Let's save these up for now. Once we have enough points, we can exchange them for a bottle of [Heavenly Dragon Blood]."

Li Xijun looked at the [Heavenly Dragon Blood] that required [60 points], and began to calculate in his mind:

"After completing the five-school joint competition, you're guaranteed at least 10 credits. If you achieve a higher ranking, you'll definitely receive more credits. The runner-up and champion might even get 20 or 30 credits."

"The fifth floor of the Nine-Story Demon Tower awards 5 points, and the sixth floor awards 6 points."

"Since that martial arts genius from the Unnamed Pavilion was able to pass the sixth level of the Subtle Realm, then I can certainly do it now as well."

"In this way, I only need to clear these two more levels of the Nine-Story Demon Tower to get these 11 credits."

"Who knows, after the five-school joint martial arts competition ends, we might be able to collect enough credits for the Heavenly Dragon Blood."

Thinking of this,

Li Xijun, however, lost his sleepiness and turned his gaze to the virtual pod in the room that belonged to him, number 001.

"Let's set a small goal: kill the Sea Spirits on the fifth floor first!"

Virtual space

Nine-Story Demon Tower

"Welcome to the fifth level of the Nine-Story Demon Tower. You will now face an attack by 50 Sea Spirits. Kill all the Sea Spirit enemies within 30 minutes!"

"If you die midway, it will be considered a failure. Failure to kill all the Sea Spirits within 30 minutes will also be considered a failure."

As the words fell,

A huge, blood-red countdown appeared in front of Li Xijun:

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"start!"

Li Xijun, now back in this space, gazed at the boundless sea and watched as the Sea Spirit warriors emerged from it, slowly drawing their long swords from their waists.

Previously, due to his insufficient martial arts skills, he almost wanted to take the initiative to attack the moment he saw it, but he was repelled by the opponent who was already prepared and fell directly into the encirclement.

However, Li Xijun, who had already reached the [Master of Ten Thousand Blades Returning to the Flow 34%] level of the Subtle Realm, did not rush to make a move. Instead, he intentionally allowed the opponents to gather and form a highly coordinated and tacitly coordinated attack.

"Ohhhhh!"

Among the Sea Spirits who slowly surrounded them, forming a formation resembling a combined attack, one of their leaders let out a strange cry.

These mythical creatures, possessing intelligence, have their own language system.

Those who are powerful and of noble lineage are said to be highly proficient in human languages ​​and cultures.

Soon, the calm sea was suddenly broken beside the small rock where Li Xijun stood.

A figure resembling a shark suddenly leaped out of the seawater, a golden curved blade in its hand transforming into a sharp, cold light as it struck towards Li Xijun's legs.

"Heh, looking at your attacks now, they're incredibly crude."

Li Xijun remained motionless, his long sword casually drawing an arc, seemingly ordinary yet encompassing all things in the world.

In an instant,

The blades clashed.

A body, split in two, fell into the sea.

The gleaming scimitar fell onto the rocks with a crisp clanging sound.

"Too weak. Use your combined attack technique to attack together."

Li Xijun held a long knife, his gaze icy.

As if they understood, the Sea Spirit warriors roared in unison, and weapons from all directions instantly enveloped him.
