Chu Wen instantly turned the tide, severing the perfectly tempered golden bone arm with a single slash.

With just one strike, the entire arena erupted in cheers.

Some trainees suddenly stood up, completely bewildered and utterly unable to comprehend how Chu Wen had accomplished such a feat!

They could understand if it were an SSS-level or SC-level battle sword, since those kinds of battle swords could even pass through the body of a demon king without any hindrance.

But Chu Wen was using an ordinary battle sword from the arena!

"No, we've fought in the virtual arena before. A battle blade should shatter instantly upon contact with Golden Bone!"

Some people suddenly realized something: Chu Wen's battle sword had never broken! It hadn't even shown much wear after several attacks!

"Does his angle of attack minimize blade wear?"

"Impossible! What kind of monster is this? Who would hone their martial arts skills instead of improving their cultivation level? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"

"Yes, martial arts can only enhance combat power at the current level, at most allowing you to advance a small level. How could anyone be foolish enough to hone their martial arts skills? Ordinary martial arts skills will eventually become obsolete as they fall behind the current level."

The trainees were discussing it animatedly.

Both Chen Du and Hu Tao were shocked: Chu Wen had won so easily!

Everyone thought it would be a long battle, but it ended after only 5 minutes?

Moreover, he was beheaded, killed beyond any doubt. In reality, the once arrogant Zhang Fengming would already be a corpse.

At the moment Zhang Fengming's throat was cut open, he experienced death firsthand!

Yes, the simulated arena not only simulates pain, but also the agony of being near death.

In that silent world and with only black and white vision, even for just a second, he felt as if he had experienced his previous life all over again.

He felt as if he had truly died once; when he rose from the hibernation pod, he even had an extremely unreal feeling.

"Hoo~!" "Hoo~~!"

He was panting heavily when Zhang Yun pulled him out of the cabin, looking at him with a pained expression.

"Bro, 1000 credits... gone."

"If it's gone, it's gone. It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive."

Experiencing death for the first time, Zhang Fengming bowed deeply to Chu Wen. Without Chu Wen, he probably would have really taken the risk in the Dark Nest and died a quick and decisive death.

All the geniuses present, like him, had never known what death was.

Chu Wen politely returned Zhang Fengming's greeting. He could sense a change in the other man's mindset; perhaps he was convinced of his superiority, or perhaps he had genuinely learned something. But none of that mattered to him anymore.

"Master Suo, use these 1000 credits, along with the previous 1300 credits, to order all the materials for bone tempering. I'm going into seclusion."

Meanwhile, some masked men who had come to join the fun, though their eyes were hidden by the masks, also revealed shock.

That strike was actually clearer to them, and they were even speculating about the path of Chu Wen's attacks each time.

These war gods thought it might be a protracted war, with Chu Wen choosing to slowly wear down Zhang Fengming's golden bones and gradually take away his defensive capabilities. It was a test of endurance between the two sides.

To everyone's complete surprise, Chu Wen was confident that he could break the Golden Bone technique just a few minutes later.

With a single slash, bones are broken and throat is sealed!

Luo Zhong sat in the leather chair, repeatedly watching Chu Wen's every strike.

After pausing and slicing hundreds of times, Luo Zhong finally saw something—the real reason why the battle sword hadn't broken!

"The black residue...it's his..."

"The true meaning of martial arts?!"

Luo Zhong couldn't believe it was true, but the facts told him that it was very likely true.

A novice Battle King who has mastered the true meaning of martial arts?

Even for a beginner-level War God, mastering the true meaning of martial arts is extremely difficult. Generally, one needs to reach the level of a high-level War God to even touch the threshold of the true meaning of martial arts.

But Chu Wen? A mere novice Battle King, not only touched the threshold of the true meaning of martial arts, but also used the true meaning of martial arts?!

"Incredible, unbelievable. After this trip to the Dark Nest, those old guys are probably all getting restless... A genius who has grasped the true essence of martial arts, a destined Star Warrior..."

Ordinary Star Warriors are too lazy to teach students, but if it's a future Star Warrior who's a sure thing, will those Star Warriors still be calm?

A Star Warrior can influence many things! Establishing a martial arts family is as simple as saying a word! That's what a Star Warrior is!

"We could go and say hello to those old guys. Now that our Chaos Martial Arts Academy has discovered his potential ahead of time, we can't let other forces interfere with him anymore."

……

After finishing their sparring match, Chu Wen said goodbye to Chen Du and Hu Tao, and then went back to the lounge.

The resources that Suo Da purchased are scheduled to arrive tomorrow, and the second bone tempering can officially begin tomorrow!

Yes, Chu Wen had actually tempered his limbs once using the Hunyuan Breathing Technique, reaching 58 golden bones, just one step away from becoming a mid-level Battle King.

My current health value has reached 5920, which is the threshold for a typical mid-level War God.

According to Suo Da's evaluation: mediocre.

"These are what you can use right now. This is a pill called 'Marrow Cleansing Pill' made from the petals of the Bitter Frozen Flower. According to the physique of you Earthlings, it should be used to temper your bones."

"I only ordered five Marrow Cleansing Pills for you when I was at the Kyoto Martial Arts University. Let's try the second bone tempering with these five pills first."

"Actually, you should be considered a martial artist who hasn't even completed bone tempering. It's just that the Hunyuan Breathing Technique is improving your bones."

Following the guidance given by Suo Da, Chu Wen felt the blood energy contained in the bones of his arms.

With the help of the Hunyuan Breathing Technique, the blood energy inside has accumulated to a sufficiently rich level. However, if one were to carefully sense it, one could actually feel that the blood energy was merely filling the space and slightly increasing its hardness, without truly helping the bones to transform.

It has the form but lacks true inner strength.

But if Chu Wen told others that he had never actually completed bone tempering, it would probably shock a lot of people.

After all, a mere beginner Battle King possesses such formidable strength without even completing bone tempering once; what would he be like after completing bone tempering?

After taking two Marrow-Cleansing Pills, Chu Wen began forging his golden bones according to the normal bone-tempering process.

He felt a burning sensation coursing through his hand bones from his palm, and the radiance of the golden bones began to slowly spread from within.

Just as Suo Da and Chu Wen had guessed, the moment the Golden Bone was completed, the blood energy that had been stored in the bone marrow seemed to take root and was re-established on the Golden Bone.

A mysterious bone pattern is outlined on the golden bone, which can be activated to unleash its power once again with the slightest movement!

"Is this what they call secondary bone tempering?"

Bang~!

Bang bang bang!

He threw a punch, and after the fist's energy, an even weaker surge of energy rose up!

Double blow!

Those mysterious bone patterns actually allowed his punches to deliver a double blow!

The power of that second strike is limited now, but if all the bones are tempered, will there be a qualitative change?

Before the effects of the medicine wore off, Chu Wen immediately began forging the second piece of golden bone.
