Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 9 Subtlety-Level Movement Technique? Perfect Level!

This sudden speed caught Jiang Lan off guard for a while.

In just a moment, his body had been hit by several bullets, and he felt waves of slight pain.

Jiang Lan gritted his teeth, focusing intently on the bullets hurtling towards him, his body dodging within a limited area.

Although the bullets were very fast, as time went by, Jiang Lan gradually adapted to the speed and began to dodge with ease.

A minute passed.

"Elementary Warrior Reaction Speed Test: Hit 22 times within 60 seconds, touched the red light 0 times, passed."

Wu Tong's voice reached Jiang Lan's ears.

Jiang Lan looked at Wu Tong outside and said:

"I felt I didn't perform well just now, can we try again?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Tong looked slightly surprised, but he didn't say anything more and just nodded.

"Then get ready, we'll begin in ten seconds."

"it is good."

Jiang Lan adjusted her breathing and looked at the huge instrument again.

He already roughly understood why his movement skills were so poor.

If one's strength improves too quickly without time to reflect, it's inevitable that they will feel somewhat out of place and unable to fully utilize their abilities, which is perfectly normal.

Although his performance was already considered satisfactory in the assessment of intermediate-level generals.

But clearly, Jiang Lan was very dissatisfied with this result.

Ten seconds passed in the blink of an eye, and the huge instrument vibrated again, unleashing a torrent of bullets.

Jiang Lan was prepared and easily dodged the bullets that were aimed at him.

In the first twenty seconds, he was only hit by bullets twice.

Jiang Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she had suddenly remembered something.

Besides the body tempering pills and weapons, were there any movement technique manuals among the previous sacrifices?

Jiying!

Just as Jiang Lan thought of this, Swift Shadow was automatically activated, and his physical state changed instantly. Even the bullets coming at him slowed down considerably.

Outside, Wu Tong also vaguely sensed some changes in Jiang Lan. His pupils narrowed slightly, and he murmured in disbelief, as if he couldn't quite believe it:

"This is... a movement technique at the Subtle Level? How is this possible?"

He had personally witnessed that Jiang Lan's movements were still quite immature during the first test.

But how long has it been?

One minute?

No, one and a half minutes!

In such a short time, his movement technique had advanced from the basic level to the subtle level. Wu Tong had never even heard of it, let alone seen it before.

To him, Jiang Lan's performance was nothing short of a fantasy.

But it happened right before his eyes, and no matter how unbelievable it may seem, it was the truth.

Wu Tong took a deep breath. To be honest, he wasn't entirely satisfied with the results of Jiang Lan's neurological response test.

It's not that Jiang Lan's grades were bad, but his strength and speed were simply too outrageous. In comparison, the results of the neural reaction test were not so amazing.

But now, Wu Tong is caught in a deep self-doubt.

Is this... really an improvement rate that humans can achieve?

Just as Wu Tong was beginning to doubt himself, Jiang Lan's round of testing inside had already ended.

Looking at the numbers displayed on the screen in front of him, Wu Tong's heart pounded slightly faster, and he said:

"Beginner Warrior Reaction Speed Test: Within 60 seconds, hit twice, touched the red light 0 times, excellent."

Just when Wu Tong thought Jiang Lan was about to come out after hearing the results, Jiang Lan spoke again in the testing room.

"The beginner-level warrior test... Instructor Wu, could you please adjust it to the intermediate... no, the advanced-level warrior test?"

Wu Tong's eyes flickered.

"How about we stick with the intermediate level? The test for advanced warriors is beyond your current capabilities."

Jiang Lan's performance just now showed that his movement technique was only at the microscopic level, far from perfect.

However, to pass the neural reaction test for high-level warriors, one's agility must be at least close to perfect to have a chance of passing.

In the martial arts stage, movement techniques are divided into four levels: basic, subtle, perfect, and artistic conception.

The basic level is when someone has just become a martial artist and their movement skills are very average.

The "Mastery" level usually refers to someone who has undergone considerable training and is generally attainable only by warrior-level warriors.

The Microscopic Movement Technique allows one to evade attacks from all directions within an extremely limited area.

The perfect level is generally only attainable by senior warriors or even higher-level war gods.

Even if you don't have great talent, you might not be able to achieve perfect movement skills even if you become a seasoned war god.

This level of movement skill allows one to completely control the surrounding environment, becoming one with it, and utilizing everything around them to perform extremely precise and accurate evasion.

As for the artistic conception, that's something that ordinary martial artists can't achieve.

Generally speaking, one can only possess movement techniques at the realm of artistic conception after reaching the planetary level.

"It's okay, I want to try."

Jiang Lan was not intimidated.

His confidence stemmed from the movement technique he received as a reward from the sacrifice system.

Jiang Lan originally thought that although he was rewarded with a movement technique manual, he would still need to train diligently to fully unleash its effects.

Although his memories of the original novel "Swallowed Star" weren't very deep, there were still some things he could remember.

Just like others, even if they work hard to cultivate after obtaining the secret manual, they may not be able to reach a high level; it also depends on their talent.

But when it comes to him, it seems to be a completely different story.

Just now, Jiang Lan was surprised to discover that the movement technique rewarded by the system seemed to be engraved deep in his genes.

He can unleash the full potential of his movement techniques whenever he wants.

After activating Swift Shadow, Jiang Lan felt that both his reaction time and speed had more than doubled.

That's why he was so confident about the assessment of high-ranking generals.

Seeing Jiang Lan's insistence, Wu Tong naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Since you want to try, then I'll let you try. But don't put too much pressure on yourself. It doesn't matter if your results in the advanced warrior assessment aren't ideal; you're already a genius among geniuses."

Although Jiang Lan didn't quite agree with Wu Tong's words, she still nodded slightly.

One in a hundred million?

You probably can't find a genius more amazing than him in the entire universe.

With the system around, he's the coolest guy in the entire universe.

Outside the door, Wu Tong fiddled with the touchpad for a while, then said:

"Get ready, the advanced warrior's neural reaction speed test will begin in ten seconds."

Jiang Lan stretched her body slightly and activated Swift Shadow once again.

At this moment, the flow of time seemed to slow down.

"Beep beep beep beep beep beep—"

The instrument in front of him fired bullets again, but this time the bullets were several times denser and faster than before.

Seeing the incoming bullets, Jiang Lan smiled.

That's it?
