Full-Time Martial Saint

At 8:05 PM, when Chen Cong logged back into the virtual world, his figure appeared directly outside the gate of the Divine Evolution Arena.

Looking at the magnificent building in front of him, he was first stunned, then secretly delighted.

It seems that the location I appear in each time I log into the virtual world is not random, but rather related to the location I was in when I last logged out.

This is good, and it saves me from having to fly here every time and wasting money.

Suppressing his thoughts, Chen Cong slowly walked into the hall of the Divine Evolution Arena. Less than two minutes later, a figure walked through the crowd and came to him.

The newcomer was none other than "Karaputi's Sorrow," whom he had just fought yesterday.

"After we finished playing yesterday, I went back and reviewed the process several times. Now I have some new insights that need to be verified."

As soon as Karapti arrived, without any pretense of politeness, he spoke directly.

Chen Cong smiled and nodded: "It's good to have some insights. So, shall I hold back a bit today and let you experience it more?"

"Okay." Karapti nodded sadly and excitedly, completely unaware that Chen Cong's real purpose in doing this was to steal her "Ape Step" movement technique.

"I'll create a sparring arena."

As Karapti spoke with a sorrowful expression, he skillfully tapped a few times in front of him, and Chen immediately received a notification.

[You have received a challenge request codenamed "Karaputi's Sorrow". Do you agree?]

Without any hesitation, he clicked the "agree" button.

An irresistible force suddenly descended from above, and the two people in the hall were directly sucked into the fighting arena.

……

[Sparring with a martial artist who has mastered the Spirit Ape Step will increase your Spirit Ape Step analysis progress by 10 points.]

[Current analysis progress of the Spirit Ape Step: 0.2%]

Half an hour later, as Chen left the fighting arena, two lines of text appeared in front of him.

After reading the text, Chen Cong shook his head helplessly.

Karapti's understanding of the Spirit Ape Step technique was still too low, only at the beginner level.

He fought her for half an hour, and his analysis progress only increased by 10 points. If it were someone who had mastered agility, he estimated that he would have gained at least 50 to 100 analysis points in a single exchange.

However, he only thought about it, since mastering agility and mastering martial arts are completely different concepts.

To reach a minor level of proficiency in ordinary martial arts, one only needs to have a decent understanding of martial arts and practice for a few years.

However, to achieve even a minor level of proficiency in movement techniques, according to what Karapti said during their sparring session, one would need to be at least a second-tier martial artist.

"How is it? Is my fist technique different from yesterday?" In the hall of the Divine God Fighting Arena, as soon as Karapti's sorrow appeared, he excitedly looked at Chen Cong and asked.

Chen Cong nodded.

The young girl from Annam before me has a very strong aptitude for martial arts; she even had a brief moment of enlightenment during today's match.

He estimated that it wouldn't be long before, with some serious guidance from him, the girl would likely master the "Explosive Kill Fist" to a minor level!

By then, if his overall physical abilities haven't improved significantly, he might not be able to easily defeat his opponent without using the "Spirit Ape Step".

However, when he was about to spar with his opponent, he dared not use the "Spirit Ape Step" movement technique, fearing that his opponent would see through his intentions and refuse to spar with him again.

"I'm going to aim for Rookie 3-star, and try to reach Rookie 10-star within a year, then participate in the [Blackstone Trialer] trial."

"You're not 18 yet, are you?"

Karapti's words, though tinged with sadness, carried a hint of elation, clearly indicating that he was in high spirits because of today's harvest.

Chen Cong nodded: "Three months left."

Upon hearing this, Karapti tilted his head and pondered for a moment before saying, "If possible, I still suggest you make good use of these three months to try it out. The [Blackstone Trialist] qualification is the most basic qualification. Once you miss it, you'll never have the chance to enter the Void Realm again in this lifetime."

"By the way, my name is Karapti Hey, you can call me Hey from now on."

Chen nodded slightly, but did not tell Hey his real name.

Seeing this, Hey couldn't help but pout and waved her hand somewhat angrily: "Let's go, let's meet again next time."

Watching her figure disappear into the crowd, Chen Cong pondered for a moment, then stopped thinking about it and started random matchmaking.

Before Hey, the homeroom teacher Ma Xinhua had also mentioned unintentionally that Da Xia had studied the Void Realm and vaguely sensed that the title of [Black Stone Trialist] was a kind of qualification, and that there seemed to be a title above this one called [Blade Trialist].

Based on what Hey just said, without obtaining the title of [Blackstone Trialist], one probably won't even be qualified to obtain the title of [Blade Trialist], let alone think about exploring other secrets of the Void Realm.

Less than a minute after the random match started, he was sucked back into the fighting arena.

Having learned from his previous experience, Chen focused his gaze on his opponent.

Codename: [The Dragon of Great Xia]

Rank: Rookie 3-Star

Number of matches: 32

Record: 23 wins, 9 losses

Win percentage: 71.87%

Wow, I've run into someone from my hometown!

Although his opponent this time was a ruthless scarred pirate, Chen Cong was almost certain from his codename that he was also a Great Xia person.

A rising star with a 3-star rating and a 65% win rate; I wonder which city this genius comes from.

The duel countdown began, and without any communication between them, the moment the countdown reached zero, the "Dragon of Great Xia" suddenly charged forward.

The quota for analyzing the cheat code was already full. Staying in the virtual world would consume his mental energy every moment, so Chen Cong didn't intend to waste time with the other party and used his full strength right away.

With his agility combined with his rudimentary boxing skills, although his strength was clearly lacking, he still managed to defeat his opponent in just three minutes!

……

"Grass!"

"Damn it, what bad luck! Whose young master did we run into? He even had to use his movement techniques!"

In a luxurious manor somewhere in the Great Xia Dynasty, an angry voice came from inside a high-tech crystal capsule.

At this moment, Chen Cong was unaware that he had been mistaken for a young master from a prominent family.

After defeating his opponent codenamed "The Dragon of Great Xia," he didn't linger and immediately started a new match.

In the dormitory, Luo Yunfeng looked at the bracelet on his wrist, then at Chen Cong, who had been wearing the Crystal Helmet and had been in the virtual world for an hour, and hesitated.

Last night I learned that my new roommate is not yet eighteen years old. He casually mentioned the title "Blackrock Trialer".

Chen Cong has been in the virtual realm for an hour now and shows no sign of leaving. Luo Yunfeng is really worried that his suggestion will harm Chen Cong.

"Let's wait a bit longer. If he doesn't come out soon, I'll wake him up again."

Luo Yunfeng thought about it carefully and realized that Chen Cong seemed to have stayed in the virtual realm for more than an hour yesterday. Perhaps his spiritual power was stronger than his own, so he did not wake him up immediately.

Time quickly passed to 10 p.m. After cultivating alone for a while, Luo Yunfeng finally couldn't hold back any longer. He carefully walked behind Chen Cong and directly pressed the wake-up button on the crystal helmet.

"Brother Luo, I'm fine. I'll come out in a bit."

Sensing that someone was trying to wake him up, Chen did not immediately leave the virtual world, but simply replied with a sentence.

His ideas were simple: first, he needed to further solidify his "reckless" persona, ideally by having it spread to other classes through Luo Yunfeng; second, his mental strength hadn't reached its limit yet, and he could hold on a little longer without any problems.

Hearing his answer, Luo Yunfeng could only sigh helplessly, turn around and sit back at his desk, continuing to exercise with dumbbells.

At 10:50, feeling noticeably tired, Chen Cong had to end the free match after finishing a duel.

You have defeated the enemy codenamed "Scarecrow" and gained 35 victory points.

Code Name: Homesick Traveler

[Rank: Rookie 2-Star (11/300 Victory Points)]

[Number of matches: 7]

Record: 7 wins, 0 losses

Win rate: 100%

After glancing at his basic panel, Chen Cong couldn't help but smile.

Excluding the match against Hey yesterday, he played a total of six matches today. Perhaps because of his winning streak, these six wins directly brought him to the Rookie 2-star rank.

"The victory points for a winning streak are indeed very high, but this 100% win rate also means that the opponents I encounter later are getting stronger and stronger." Putting away the panel, Chen Cong pondered for a while, thinking about how to formulate a more detailed plan to strive for the title of [Blackstone Trialer].

As his consciousness withdrew from the virtual world, Chen Conggang took off his crystal helmet, and a strong sense of dizziness suddenly struck him.

"Chen Cong, you!"

Luo Yunfeng, who had been keeping a close eye on him, saw that he was now pale and could not even stand steadily, so he rushed over to support him.

"Brother Luo, I'm fine," Chen Cong said with a forced smile.

Luo Yunfeng looked at him with a complicated expression: "You absolutely must not do this again next time. Luckily, tomorrow is Saturday, otherwise, with your mental energy so severely depleted, you wouldn't be able to attend class tomorrow."

Chen Cong nodded seriously: "Brother Luo, I want to sleep for a while."

Luo Yunfeng nodded repeatedly, carefully helped him onto the bed, and then quickly turned off the dormitory lights.
