Battle Through the Heavens: Attribute Draw, Top-Tier Comprehension at the Start

"Stop pretending, your mouth is practically stretched to your ears."

Xue Ni leaned over, grabbed Xiao Yu's arm, and raised an eyebrow at her.

"Tell me quickly, any progress?"

"Of course."

Xiao Yu gave a soft hum, her voice carrying an undisguised joy.

"I knew it!"

Xue Ni slapped her thigh, a strange sense of confidence welling up inside her.

"Qin Yu may seem like a rock, but he's actually very perceptive. As long as you don't back down and say what you need to say, he definitely won't avoid you."

"So, will you still say those things you taught me in the future?"

Xiao Yu recalled the embarrassing scene from earlier that afternoon and felt a lingering fear.

She would never want to experience that scene again.

"Speak up, why won't you speak?"

Xue Ni said confidently, "Now that we've made progress, why not strike while the iron is hot and take it a step further!"

"It's just that I have to change the way I do it. I can't be so blunt with you. I have to be more tactful."

Are you sure that's what you call being tactful?

Xiao Yu rolled her eyes at her.

"Ahem, this was an accident. I promise to be more tactful next time."

Xue Ni patted her chest confidently, but Xiao Yu, looking at her expression, felt that she was not very reliable.

Forget it, let's take a step by step.

Xiao Yu lay on the bed, turned over, and buried her face in the pillow.

"You and I both love watching it."

But whenever Xiao Yu recalled Qin Yu's words, she couldn't help but kick her legs wildly.

It seems there's something hidden inside this stone that I haven't seen yet.

Meanwhile, Qin Yu also had trouble sleeping after returning to his dormitory.

He stared at the ceiling, and Xiao Yu's blushing face involuntarily appeared in his mind.

Judging from Xiao Yu's reaction at the time... it was as if she had been waiting for him to say those words.

"Xiao Yu... I remember she later used water-attribute fighting spirit, right?"

water.

Soil and water…

Hey! I have another idea.

o(￣▽￣)d

In the Five Elements, Earth overcomes Water.

But from another perspective, can't water also nourish the soil?

Just like rivers flowing across the earth, the soil becomes more suitable for nurturing life wherever water flows.

If one could use water-attribute battle qi to aid in their cultivation...

Countless new ideas surged into Qin Yu's mind in an instant, and his thoughts began to race once again.

Water is said to flow downwards.

If one can utilize the power of water to first nourish the earth's energy absorbed during cultivation before absorbing it into the meridians and dantian, the efficiency of cultivation might be able to reach a new level.

"interesting…"

Qin Yu thought about it more and more and felt that this direction was feasible, but this matter needed to be considered in the long run.

After all, he doesn't even know what water-attribute battle qi feels like, so relying solely on speculation is ultimately just building castles in the air.

Qin Yu forcibly suppressed the urge to continue thinking deeply and closed his eyes again.

After Xiao Yu breaks through to the Dou Zhe level, perhaps we can cultivate together for a period of time, and maybe we can gain unexpected benefits.

Instructor Ruolin is also of the water attribute, but the other party is already a Great Battle Master and a teacher at the academy.

Moreover, the battle qi at the Great Dou Master level is nothing compared to his own battle qi at the Dou Zhe level...

Then the water will be too strong and the soil will collapse.

Having figured this out, Qin Yu's mind calmed down completely, and he quickly entered a state of rest.

The next morning.

Qin Yu walked out of the dormitory building and headed towards the classroom when a familiar figure approached him.

Bai Cheng.

The distance between the two was getting closer and closer.

Bai Cheng's gaze swept over Qin Yu, but he didn't stop walking. He just let out a cold snort and strode past Qin Yu towards the Scripture Pavilion.

Qin Yu glanced back at him, but didn't pay any attention and continued walking forward.

"Brother Cheng, that kid..."

An older student following behind Bai Cheng approached and whispered something.

"Ignore him."

Bai Cheng waved his hand, his brows furrowed slightly; he had no time to care about Qin Yu right now.

They hadn't gotten their hands on the Shanlin Zhenyue cultivation manual, but the rankings in the points competition wouldn't wait for anyone.

The rankings for the Foreign Languages ​​Institute's points competition are updated in real time. Unless you have a level of strength that is significantly higher than others, anyone can be dethroned at any time.

He is currently ranked around forty, barely maintaining his qualification to enter and leave the second floor of the Sutra Repository to borrow advanced Xuan-level cultivation techniques and combat skills.

Recently, many of my opponents have been in seclusion, breaking through their limits, while my own strength has stagnated.

If you were to be squeezed out of the top 50 just to compete with Qin Yu, it would be a huge loss.

Anyway, the opponent is only four stars...

wrong!

Bai Cheng turned back and carefully sensed Qin Yu's cultivation level.

Five-Star Warrior?

Another breakthrough in just one week?

"Phew... It's alright, just a five-star Dou Zhe."

Bai Cheng touched his forehead. Hmm, thankfully, he wasn't sweating.

He's only a five-star Dou Zhe; the gap between them is still as vast as an insurmountable chasm.

And with such rapid progress, it's probably due to forcing growth; the foundation is definitely weak, hmm...

That must be it!

Qin Yu, of course, had no idea what Bai Cheng was thinking.

He was sitting in the classroom, listening to the teacher's lecture, but his mind was wandering to something else:

The Five Elements' generating and restraining relationships.

Earth generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, and fire generates earth.

Earth overcomes Water, Water overcomes Fire, Fire overcomes Metal, Metal overcomes Wood, and Wood overcomes Earth.

This theory would have been considered metaphysics in the previous life, but in this world, battle qi is a real attribute.

Since the five elements truly exist, the theory of mutual generation and restraint among the five elements should have its place.

"Qin Yu, what are you thinking about?"

The teacher on the stage suddenly called his name.

Qin Yu snapped out of his daze and stood up without changing his expression:

"I'm thinking about the optimization plan for the Qi circulation route that the teacher just mentioned."

The teacher paused for a moment, glanced at him, and nodded.

"Sit down and listen carefully."

The teachers had discussed Qin Yu's unique qualities.

Sometimes he seems to be daydreaming, but he understands everything he says and can even come up with some novel and worthwhile ideas.

After class, Qin Yu went into the mountains to cultivate as usual.

In the days that followed, his daily schedule remained almost unchanged.

They attend classes during the day and go into the mountains in the afternoon to improve their fighting spirit and practice fighting techniques.

In the evening, I would return to my dormitory to continue my cultivation, and occasionally have a meal or take a walk with Xiao Yu.

Four months of peaceful life passed in the blink of an eye.

Canaan Outer Court, on the playing field.

Hundreds of freshmen sat in the stands according to their classes, each with an expression of either nervousness or excitement on their face.

Today is a group test for freshmen arranged by the college.

It's actually just a competition between freshmen to test their training results over the past six months.

In the Huangjie Class 2 area, Qin Yu sat in the last row, arms crossed, eyes closed, resting.

Six months.

It has only been half a year since he broke through to the Dou Zhe level.

However, his strength has soared from a one-star Dou Zhe to a nine-star Dou Zhe.

In just six months, he rose eight stars.

This speed... should be acceptable, right?

If he were to fully unleash the power of the "Mysterious Earth Wrathful Qilin Technique," disregarding the consequences and ignoring the fundamentals, he might be able to break through to the Dou Shi level.

But he didn't want to do that.

It's only a matter of one level, why lose sight of the bigger picture?
