High-level martial arts: Starting with a heart of steel, stats crush everything.

Chen Mo and the others remained silent, after all, what Zhu Long had said was too shocking.

To think that one can rival a master who can manipulate the power of heaven and earth with physical strength is no different from talking in one's sleep.

Not to mention that Zhu Long actually questioned the human race's body tempering method, which had been used for many years, making him seem even more like a madman.

However, Chen Mo thought Zhu Long's words made sense, because his perfect steel skin and perfect steel blood after tempering were several times stronger than ordinary ones.

Perhaps Zhu Long is a genius in some sense, having noticed something that even a grandmaster hadn't noticed.

No, perhaps the Grandmaster actually knows this, but is simply unable to say it due to certain circumstances.

"Don't mind it, I was just saying it casually."

Zhu Long knew it was pointless to talk to these younger students, so he waved his hand, showing off his big white teeth.

"But if you're interested in muscle training, I can teach you."

"Even if you don't join my Grandmaster Academy, it's fine. You can come find me anytime."

Chen Mo and Gu Feng nodded together; they were indeed very interested in Zhu Long's method of muscle tempering.

A man should be fierce and tough!

...

Unlike the Southern Training Camp, the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy has thoughtfully separated male and female dormitories.

This left Gu Feng quite disappointed, while He Miao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Ma Wanglin has a tomboyish temperament, her figure is absolutely top-notch.

The wheat-colored skin did not detract from her appearance; on the contrary, it accentuated Ma Wanglin's muscular physique, which resembled that of a cheetah.

A typical sporty girl.

During the training camp in the south, Ma Wanglin would return to the dormitory wearing only a sports bra and a pair of sports shorts, with water droplets slowly sliding down her wheat-colored skin after taking a shower.

With his toned muscles and long legs, Gu Feng was truly treated to a feast for the eyes.

He Miao repeatedly reminded Ma Wanglin to protect her privacy, but Ma Wanglin basically ignored him.

She didn't care, but Gu Feng was filled with longing.

Having been cooped up at home since childhood, practicing martial arts every day and never having been with a woman, Gu Feng was constantly pent up with bloodshot eyes, and could only vent his frustrations through training.

This might be one of the benefits of co-ed dormitories...

As for Chen Mo and Yang Zuo, one was always thinking about how to get more steel, and the other was always trying to find ways to eat more to avoid being hungry. They didn't enjoy this kind of perk at all.

Why are you sighing?

Chen Mo looked at Gu Feng with some confusion.

"It's okay, let's go back to the dorm first, and then check out the facilities..."

Gu Feng let out a long sigh, his once young and handsome face now showing signs of aging.

"How inexplicable!"

Chen Mo was completely bewildered by Gu Feng, and Yang Zuo, who was standing to the side, also had a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Wait a moment."

Just before the five were about to part ways, Ma Wanglin called them back.

"Don't rush back to the dorm yet. Let's settle the departmental issues here first."

"We're definitely going to be a team, since we've been training together for a month, and other teams can't adapt to our fighting style."

"Therefore, I think it would be more appropriate to go to the same Grandmaster Academy."

"Yes, yes, that makes sense." Gu Feng nodded repeatedly, thinking it would be even better if they could live together.

"Which one?" Chen Mo recalled Song Bin's introduction of the Grandmaster Academy to them, and realized that he seemed to have forgotten nothing.

At that moment, all I could think about was going to go and do a couple more rounds of steel.

"The women's college is the first one to be ruled out. You three are men, so you can't get into the women's college."

Ma Wanglin first ruled out the women's college among the thirteen Grandmaster colleges, since the five of them would definitely be together, and the women's college was not suitable.

"As for the remaining twelve Grandmaster Academies, I think any of them will do."

"Well, we came to the Grandmaster Academy for resources and combat. As for the guidance of Grandmasters, it's good to have it, but it's not a big problem if we don't."

Chen Mo nodded; none of the members of their team really needed guidance.

"Chen Mo, didn't you get Grandpa Huang's Vajra Iron Wire Fist before? Let's go to the Fist King's Academy."

Gu Feng thought for a moment. His martial arts skills were all inherited from his ancestors, and Yang Zuo used the martial arts skills of the Celestial Race, which were completely different from those of the Human Race.

Ma Wanglin's martial arts skills are basically complete, and now only Chen Mo needs guidance in martial arts.

"Then you guys..." Chen Mo frowned slightly, not wanting to delay his teammates' progress because of himself.

He tempered his body at an extremely fast pace, and it wouldn't be long before he caught up with them.

If the gap between the individuals is too large, then Gu Feng will only hold them back.

Only by becoming stronger together can their team continue to exist.

"Don't worry, we're just discussing which Grandmaster Academy to go to. There's no rule against visiting different Grandmaster Academies."

Gu Feng smiled and patted Chen Mo on the shoulder.

Although Chen Mo was the strongest in combat among them, his martial arts skills were the most rudimentary.

These people are all geniuses, and they won't fall too far behind even without guidance.

Given enough resources, achieving a high level of martial arts prowess is only a matter of time for them.

"Okay, we'll go to the Boxing Champions Academy when we're assigned to our respective academies tomorrow."

Chen Mo nodded and stopped being coy.

After deciding which Grandmaster Academy to attend, Chen Mo and the others returned to their dormitory.

It's called a dormitory, but it's actually a three-bedroom house with a small courtyard.

Unlike other martial arts academies, the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy is sparsely populated, with the entire summit of Kunlun Mountain within its boundaries.

The vast Great Xia Grandmaster Academy, including the thirteen Grandmasters and the Dean whom they hadn't seen for many years, had fewer than four hundred people in total.

This has led to the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy being quite extravagant in terms of accommodation.

These four hundred people ranged from eighteen-year-old teenagers like Chen Mo to middle-aged people in their forties.

Because the graduation standards of the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy are extremely strict, namely, becoming a peak level twelve martial artist or being able to survive being killed by a Grandmaster within five minutes.

Of course, the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy does not tolerate idlers. Once someone is over fifty-five years old, they will be kicked out of the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy and sent to a city to guard a region.

Those martial artists who are fifty-five years old and have not yet broken through to the peak of level twelve will be judged as incompetent by the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy.

What is considered trash by the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy is a hot commodity when they arrive at their destination.

Chen Mo and the others quickly settled into their respective rooms, and it was already six o'clock in the evening.

After a long day of running around, none of them had eaten, so they decided to go to Shanyiju together.

That is, the canteen of the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy.

As soon as the group entered the cafeteria, they heard a somewhat aggrieved voice.

"I just got admitted to the hospital, and I only have the fifty credits I was given when I was admitted. They were all used up after buying some resources. Could you please give me some food?"
