I possess boundless talent; even geniuses are no match for me.

......

Chen Yu was unaware of just how serious the matter of the evil god's followers was.

All that is known is that after that incident, Jiangcheng was placed under strict control for a long period of time.

The law enforcement agency can be seen in almost every corner, and even criminal activity has decreased significantly.

But none of this concerns him.

Because of the new moon, the law enforcement bureau was unable to bother Chen Yu.

The effects of the Dragon Tiger Pill were indeed remarkable. Combined with Chen Yu's own terrifying digestive and absorption abilities, its effects could only last for less than a month.

But in just one month, Chen Yu's cultivation speed nearly doubled.

In just twelve days, he broke through to the seventh level of Body Tempering.

In just sixteen days, on the second day after the effects of the Dragon Tiger Pill wore off, he successfully broke through to the eighth level of Body Tempering.

Thus, in just two months, he jumped from the second level of Body Tempering to the sixth level, reaching the top level in Jiangcheng.

The eighth level of body tempering!

"call--!"

"suck--!"

The blade moved with the force of thunder, slicing through the surrounding fallen leaves with a perfectly smooth cut.

Chen Yu took a deep breath, and Blood Chant was sheathed, producing a crisp sound.

"Unfortunately, Lei Ji Dao is still at the proficiency level, and it is unknown when he will be able to break through to the perfection level."

He couldn't help but frown slightly.

Only now does Chen Yu understand the difficulty of achieving mastery of martial arts, and it's no wonder that martial arts geniuses like Wang Qianjun are all stuck at this hurdle.

After all, he possesses the talent of a [Grandmaster of Swordsmanship], yet he is still somewhat clueless and without any clue about the perfection of the Thunder Extreme Sword.

Not to mention others.

"But there's no rush."

"Eighth level of Body Tempering is more than enough!"

At this moment, his cultivation level was on par with the other geniuses of Jiangcheng, and Chen Yu no longer feared anyone.

Wang Qianjun, Hao Xi, Zhao Tianyi... He was defeated by these people because of the difference in their martial arts realm.

But a temporary setback is nothing; the key is to win in the end.

"And winning or losing is secondary."

"The martial arts exam preliminaries have finally given me the opportunity to meet the top geniuses in Jiangcheng."

A slight smile appeared on Chen Yu's lips.

Those who are able to participate in the martial arts exam preliminaries are basically well-known martial arts geniuses in Jiangcheng.

Their whereabouts are usually unpredictable, so Chen Yu has no way to fight them one by one.

In addition, he was busy with cultivation and simply couldn't find any time.

However, during the martial arts exam warm-up competition, most of Jiangcheng's martial arts geniuses would gather here, greatly saving Chen Yu the time of arranging matches one by one.

"I hope these martial arts geniuses won't disappoint me."

Chen Yu's eyes flickered.

......

Only two days remain until the martial arts exam preliminaries.

During this period, Chen Yu could sense that Wang Qianjun, Zhao Tianyi and others had also started to get busy, most likely preparing for the warm-up matches.

It's become very difficult to spot Wang Qianjun in the martial arts class.

"Teacher, has the location for the pre-conference competition been confirmed?" Chen Yu asked Fang Xiong, taking the initiative to inquire about the details of the pre-conference competition.

"I haven't received any news," Fang Xiong shook his head, then said, "But according to convention, it's usually held at Jiangcheng Gymnasium."

Jiangcheng Gymnasium is the largest sports venue in Jiangcheng City, and its size is certainly sufficient to accommodate a small martial arts exam warm-up match.

After all, not just anyone can participate in the martial arts exam preparatory competition; each high school only has a few participants.

Chen Yu estimated that there would be about twenty or thirty people.

However, the small number of participants does not mean that the competition is not fierce, after all, everyone who participates in the warm-up competition has at least some skills.

"What about the competition format? A ring tournament? A points-based tournament?" Chen Yu asked another crucial question.

"It's hard to say, the competition rules change every year, but I'll make sure you don't suffer any losses." Fang Xiong was getting a little annoyed by the questions and waved his hand helplessly.

Chen Yu chuckled and didn't press the matter further, instead changing the subject:

"Teacher, if I get first place in the preliminary round, it will really boost your prestige...don't you think?"

He rubbed his hands together, his meaning was quite clear.

They want the benefits.

"Give me a raise?" Fang Xiong was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Do I, Fang Xiong, need you to give me face?"

"To put it bluntly, my name itself is a matter of prestige; I don't need you to help me gain face."

"Besides, putting everything else aside, you don't actually think that just because you've broken through to the eighth level of Body Tempering and won first place in the preliminaries, you've got it all figured out, do you?"

"There are quite a few geniuses in Jiangcheng this year; it's still too early to say who will win first place!"

"Teacher, it only took me two months to reach the eighth level of Body Tempering!" Chen Yu couldn't help but remind him.

I thought Fang Xiong would be shocked, after all, advancing from the second level of Body Tempering to the eighth level in just two months is already quite fast.

Fang Xiong remained completely unfazed, which made Chen Yu somewhat discouraged.

"He advanced six realms in just two months." Fang Xiong was actually quite surprised. This speed was already unmatched on Crimson Star.

Even on the New Moon, those top geniuses might be slightly inferior to Chen Yu.

However, he didn't want to see Chen Yu's smug look, so he deliberately kept a straight face:

"Kid, since you've set your sights on the Star Wars, don't always limit your vision to Crimson Star."

"This starry sky is vast, and the number of geniuses is as numerous as the stars themselves."

"Don't even mention advancing six realms in two months; I've even seen true geniuses break through one realm in a single day, reaching the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm in just nine days!"

One dose per day?!

Upon hearing about this cultivation speed, Chen Yu began to doubt whether Fang Xiong was exaggerating.

What terrifying talent would it take to do that?

However, Fang Xiong had no reason to fool him.

"Tsk, if I could fight against a genius like that, I could definitely replicate a peerless talent of purple quality or higher!"

Thinking about this, Chen Yu couldn't help but drool.

"How come this kid doesn't seem to be discouraged at all... Putting everything else aside, his martial arts will is extremely firm." Fang Xiong looked at Chen Yu's excited expression and felt quite moved.

He was initially worried that Chen Yu might be hurt by these words, so he prepared to offer some words of comfort.

After all, the geniuses he mentioned were extremely outstanding even in the entire human race's territory, and there were only a few of them in each Star Wars.

However, Chen Yu's enthusiasm showed no sign of being discouraged, so there was no need for him to waste his breath.

"Hehe, if I had a few million of a genius like that, I'd be rich!" Chen Yu thought to himself with delight.

He would love to have as many geniuses as possible.

On the other side, Fang Xiong pondered for a moment and then suddenly said, "Chen Yu, if you really win first place in the pre-season, I might be able to give you a reward."

"Hmm? What are the benefits?" Chen Yu, who hadn't held out much hope, suddenly brightened up when he heard this.

This is truly an unexpected delight.

"We'll talk about it after you get first place." Fang Xiong shook his head and didn't say anything more.
