In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 12 Dare to Bet with Me?

Moreover, Shen Xing has now almost grasped the style of the Martial Academy.

That means we're not afraid of you competing, we're only afraid that you don't dare to compete!

Arrogance and confidence can actually make you more noticeable and attract attention.

After all, the martial arts instructor for this class, a tall young woman, had been standing to the side with her arms crossed and a smile on her face the whole time. She had only watched Juan being surrounded by the crowd as a spectacle and had no intention of intervening.

Because these people surrounded Juan, too.

Indeed, after Shen Xing spoke these words and demonstrated his mid-stage Skin Refining strength, not only did some students who were only at the initial stage involuntarily take a few steps back and lose their momentum, but even the instructor was impressed.

She had thought that the student who came in on the last day would be at the bottom of the class, but to her surprise, it turned out to be a hidden eugenic.

To be able to reach the mid-stage of skin training in the basic class, besides having good resources, one must also be diligent in training and have excellent talent!

Not bad, not bad.

However, while a mid-stage Skin Training level expert could indeed intimidate most of the students in the class, it clearly couldn't scare them all away.

"Anyone can talk big," a muscular student lazily interjected. "Even if you're in the mid-stage of Skin Training, you might not be able to get the gravity device next week in this class. There are at least ten mid-stage Skin Training students in our class."

Unlike the others, this person didn't crowd in front of Juan, but he was clearly influential in the class. After he spoke up outside the crowd, many students who had started to back down seemed to have received some kind of support and started chattering again.

"That's right, you think you can just get it because you say so?"

"Exactly, I also said I'd definitely get it next week, so should I ask someone else to give me this week's share?"

"There was never any rule saying that someone else could compete in your place!"

"Come on, let's fight! If you're so capable, beat us all!"

"."

Shen Xing narrowed his eyes slightly, ignoring the people around him, and stared intently at the muscular young man who had spoken.

Juan seemed worried that he would make another move, and his lips moved slightly as he reminded him in a barely audible voice, "He's a late-stage player."

In the advanced class of the Skin Refining Realm, some outstanding students have been there for more than twenty days. There are even students like An Yiyi who have directly broken through to the Flesh Refining Realm. Naturally, there are also students in the late Skin Refining Realm.

However, Shen Xing had been waiting for someone like that to speak up.

When a person gets into conflict with a group of people, either you have the ability to intimidate everyone directly, or you find someone with enough influence among them!

"You're right." Shen Xing laughed. "Anyone can talk big, so let's make it a bit more substantial. Do you dare to make a bet with me?"

"What are we betting on?" The muscular young man, who was in the late stage of the Skin Refining Realm, seemed a little surprised. He walked in from outside the crowd, stood in front of Shen Xing with his arms crossed, and said, "I'm not interested in betting too little."

"Each school day in the Skin Refining Realm grants five bottles of Basic Yuan Liquid. I'm betting a week's supply—twenty-five bottles!" Shen Xing's smile seemed to widen. "I'm betting that next week I'll have the highest increase in punching power!"

"You have a gravity device, so you should be number one in the whole class, right?"

"Of course," Shen Xing said calmly.

"Alright!" The boy seemed even more surprised, as if he hadn't expected Shen Xing to be so confident. But he was clearly spurred on by Shen Xing's confidence. "I'll bet twenty-five. I want to see how you're going to beat me next week!"

"Let the teacher be a witness." Shen Xing turned his head and looked at the female teacher who had been silent all along.

Only then did the teacher, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines without saying a word, leisurely walk over, glance at everyone, and say with a smile, "The school does not support students using resources as stakes in principle. However, if both sides are confident, it is not impossible to gamble a little occasionally."

Stable.

Shen Xing knew that with his teacher's words, he had obtained the gravity device this week.

This device can increase cultivation efficiency by at least 100%!

For him, it was far more than twenty-five basic elemental liquids.

Moreover, in Shen Xing's view, surpassing everyone in the class in terms of punching power within a week was not a difficult task at all.

If anyone had his current resources, they wouldn't still be at the Skin Refining Realm after a month.

"It's settled then." The muscular young man flashed a set of pearly white teeth, his smile somewhat menacing as he looked at Shen Xing. "Remember, my name is Qin Feihong. Bring twenty-five vials of basic essence liquid next week!"

"You too." Shen Xing was in a good mood and didn't bother to say anything more to him. He waved his hand, pulled up the parameters he had just registered, and sent them to the teacher. "These are today's punching power standards."

"Okay, I've got it." The female teacher glanced at it with a smile.

It is indeed the mid-stage of skin training, not just the mid-stage.

If this freshman really does get first place next week, then he'll have definitely struck gold.

Seeing that things had come to this point, the other students, no matter how unwilling they were, knew that it was impossible to snatch the gravity device from Shen Xing this week.

They glared angrily at Shen Xing, then dispersed.

During the skin-training phase, it is no longer required to consume resources on-site every day during training at school; instead, resources can be taken home for use.

While the degree of freedom is indeed greater, many students have also succumbed to depravity, failing to use the resources for spiritual practice and instead engaging in selling and pleasure.

However, this made things easier for Shen Xing, as he no longer valued the cultivation effects of the basic essence liquid.

It's better to keep them and sell them for money.

At this point, they went directly with the teacher to collect the so-called gravity device, and also chatted with the new teacher for a few minutes. They learned that the teacher's surname was Dai, and he was indeed not much older than them, probably around twenty-three or twenty-four years old.

The martial arts instructors for the new students at the martial arts academy all seem to be very young.

The gravity device was also simpler than Shen Xing had imagined.

It's just a slightly larger belt.

"Is this thing really that useful?" Shen Xing picked up the belt, genuinely curious.

"Gravity training is indeed very effective during the body-refining stage," Juan explained from the side. "The biggest difference between it and load suits is that it applies pressure to the entire body, including bones and internal organs. Before gravity field control devices were invented, the Federation even tried to establish martial arts training institutions on planets with higher gravity."

"No wonder, even when martial arts were at their peak, the Federation didn't give up on technological development." Shen Xing seemed to sigh for a moment, then put his hand away, reached out and put his arm around Juan's arm, and laughed, "Old Juan, we really have to thank you this time, otherwise I would have had to wait until next week."

Don't underestimate this week. With the abundance of pills available now, any improvement in cultivation efficiency will be of great help to Shen Xing.
