I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 99 Because the maximum score is only 30 points

After a night's rest, the assessment officially began early the next morning.

Twelve prestigious schools and hundreds of promising young talents gathered at the entrance of Huilong Tower.

The pagoda is made of red bricks and green tiles, with a golden dragon coiled and lying on it.

From afar, it shone with divine light, displaying a magnificent and extraordinary spectacle.

Leon looked around and saw many powerful martial arts geniuses. He couldn't help but say, "They're all geniuses. Why does it feel like the strength of our Linjiang No. 1 High School is a bit weak?"

No wonder Lei Anghui complained that Baoqing No. 1 Middle School, where Huang Dengfeng is from, has gathered ten genuine martial arts talents this time, all of whom are geniuses.

Yancheng No. 8 Middle School and Yangzheng Middle School each have as many as nine students.

As a result, Linjiang No.1 Middle School only managed to assemble a team of eight people, and among these eight people were two outsiders, Lei Ang and Zhu Jinfeng.

Subtracting transfer students like them, there are only six martial arts prodigies truly cultivated by Linjiang No.1 Middle School itself.

Just over a month ago, there were only five people, the so-called "Five Heavenly Kings" of the Linjiang No.1 Middle School Fighting Center.

Compared to the other three prestigious schools, Linjiang No.1 Middle School does indeed seem to be facing a shortage of qualified students and a decline in talent.

Miao Yi, holding the knife, laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if there are few people. Our No. 1 High School has Ye Qingzhou as its pillar of strength. No matter how many geniuses other prestigious schools send, they will only be crushed."

After losing once, Miao Yi has completely transformed into a brainless Ye fanboy.

He is now a die-hard fan of Ye Qingzhou.

Looking at the antique-looking six-story pagoda shrouded in a strange force field, Ye Qingzhou asked Xu Yuebing beside him, "What's the assessment like this time? Are we having a fighting arena on the pagoda?"

Xu Yuebing asked in surprise, "You don't know about the Huilong Tower?"

Ye Qingzhou asked, puzzled, "Should I know?"

Xu Yuebing sighed, but finally patiently explained to Ye Qingzhou, "The Returning Dragon Tower underwent a strange change more than a hundred years ago. It was originally a scenic spot, but after the concentration of spiritual energy increased, it became a secret realm."

Having visited the Jiuyi Mountain secret realm once, Ye Qingzhou was slightly surprised: "Such a small secret realm?"

"Small?"

Xu Yuebing was both amused and exasperated: "The interior of the Returning Dragon Tower is a world unto itself, and the environment of each level is different. It is divided into six trial grounds: wind, fire, mountain, forest, yin, and thunder. Each trial ground has five levels. You get one point for passing each level, and you get five points for passing all of them."

Ye Qingzhou understood what Xu Yuebing meant: "So, this is a challenge competition?"

Xu Yuebing nodded: "Pretty much. There are six levels in total, with a total score of 30. The higher the score, the higher the ranking. If the scores are the same, then a martial arts competition will be held to determine the ranking."

Zhu Jinfeng added, "Similar secret realms used for assessment exist in large numbers near the cave heavens that have been discovered throughout the country. The scoring standards used in these realms also form the basis of our Eastern Pole Kingdom's current martial arts realm scoring system."

The Dragon Tower Secret Realm is divided into five levels, from 1 to 5 points, which actually correspond to the origin of the five realms of beginner, proficient, master, great success and perfection.

If Zhang Xinwu hadn't been the first to elevate the Thunder Force among the Six Basic Forces to a state of unparalleled mastery, the martial artists of the Eastern Pole Kingdom would have had no idea that a sixth realm existed after the fifth.

Ye Qingzhou couldn't help but ask curiously, "Has anyone ever scored 30 points?"

"have."

Who is it?

"The Ultimate Madman Zhang Xinwu".

Zhu Jinfeng said, "In our Dongji Kingdom, he is the only one who has ever scored 30 points before the age of twenty."

Ye Qingzhou immediately understood: "Only testing martial artists under the age of twenty? It seems that the purpose of secret realms like the Returning Dragon Tower is to select outstanding talents."

"Teacher Ye, how many points are you aiming for?"

"30 points."

Why?

"Because the maximum score is only 30 points."

Not only Leon, but all the other martial arts upstarts present were stunned after hearing Ye Qingzhou's arrogant words.

What do you mean by only 30 points?

So you think it's not enough?

Even Miao Yi, who had become a fan of Ye, couldn't help but want to complain at this moment.

After all, his current cultivation levels in the six elements are: proficient in wind element, proficient in fire element, beginner in mountain element, master of forest element, beginner in yin element, and master of thunder element.

According to the scoring system of Huilong Tower, if he performs normally, he should be able to get 13 points.

Even with an exceptional performance, scoring 15 points would be the best they could hope for.

Even if Miao Yi only scored 13 points in the end, he was still one of the best among geniuses, someone that many people could only look up to for their entire lives.

The Six Forms of Military Competition are easy to learn but difficult to master. Once you reach a higher level of proficiency, the difficulty of each formation increases dramatically, unless you are exceptionally gifted and dedicate yourself to diligent practice.

Otherwise, it's impossible to improve one's skill level by simply accumulating time before the age of 20.

In reality, many martial artists spend their entire lives without ever mastering all six stances to the point of perfection.

Ye Qingzhou was able to do it so easily because his martial arts talent was exceptionally high, unparalleled in the world. Otherwise, he could not have reached the top of the martial arts world on Earth at the young age of 25.

Unfortunately, Earth lacks vital energy, making the upper limit of martial arts too low. Even with unparalleled talent, Ye Qingzhou is like a dragon trapped in shallow waters or a tiger fallen into the plains, unable to achieve much.

After transmigrating to Earth, Ye Qingzhou's unparalleled talent was fully revealed. In addition, he was a master of Gang Jin (罡劲) with the ability to create subtle and profound techniques and had perfect control over his own power. Therefore, he was able to make rapid progress in his study of the "Six Forms of Military Competition" and his realm advanced by leaps and bounds.

The martial artists of Blue Star base their external training on internal training. They use the six internal breathing techniques to guide the vital energy to transform the body through breathing exercises.

And the higher the level of skill involved in this transformation, the better the effect.

Taking wind as an example, if we say that in the initial stage of wind cultivation, one can mobilize vital energy and increase nerve reaction speed by 1% by breathing in and out the internal energy of the wind in each cycle.

Therefore, the wind force at the proficient level has twice the effect of the beginner level, increasing nerve reaction speed by 2% each time.

The mastery level is twice as high as the proficiency level!

Similarly, the effect of the Perfect Realm is 16 times that of the Beginner Realm, and the effect of the Transcendent Realm is an astonishing 32 times!

This is why Ye Qingzhou is now so powerful that he can kill professional martial artists as easily as killing chickens. Among his six stances, the Wind and Yin stances have reached a state of divine mastery, while the other six stances have also reached a state of perfect accomplishment.

Ye Qingzhou's daily external and internal training efficiency was astonishingly high, to the point that his foundation and cultivation were no weaker than those of a professional martial artist with martial arts true qi.

Coupled with the extraordinary martial skill of Heart Sword, which defies common sense, and Ye Qingzhou's rich combat experience and unparalleled talent, the martial arts rating system of Blue Star can no longer contain such an unconventional monster.
