Guo Wei instructed.
"I understand. Thank you, Master."
Chu Lingguang nodded firmly.
He didn’t dare to disobey Guo Wei’s words.
However, after Guo Wei left, Chu Lingguang remained in his room and carefully read through the training material for the Flying Leaf Lotus Spear.
Ti was short.
The opportunity was rare.
During this period, both Chu Lingguang and Hei Hu were staying at the Martial Arts Hall and hadn’t gone anywhere.
In his room, Chu Lingguang read through the Flying Leaf Lotus Spear’s training content once. From the book, he could get a general idea of the Spear Technique’s power, but he still didn’t fully understand how to actually practice it to achieve mastery.
It was like a math or science textbook from his school days.
Even if the answers were written inside, many people still needed a teacher’s guidance to grasp the core concepts and get good grades on an exam.
Guo Wei had given the Spear Manual to Chu Lingguang just so he could look it over in his spare ti. He didn’t want him to look completely lost when it ca ti for his lessons.
Chu Lingguang knew his own limits.
Although he seed to have undergone an Enlightennt recently, his mind becoming much sharper than before, he knew he couldn’t rush his mastery of this Spear Technique.
So, after setting the Spear Manual aside,
he continued to practice the Turtle Breath Technique.
That afternoon, he had tried to rge the Circulation Operation Skill with the Turtle Breath Technique, but he hadn’t succeeded even once. Now, in the quiet of the night, Chu Lingguang recalled the day at Master Yan’s ho when he had used the Turtle Breath Technique to achieve a Heaven and Earth Resonance, allowing him to hear the conversation between Guo Wei and Master Yan in the courtyard.
He suddenly realized sothing.
’The Turtle Breath Technique has only reached Perfection in terms of stats, but I haven’t truly grasped its secrets. Perhaps resonating with Heaven and Earth, easily sensing every slight disturbance in my surroundings, is one of the abilities of the Turtle Breath Technique.’
’Only by mastering this ability can I rge the Turtle Breath Technique and the Circulation Operation Skill. That will allow my Dragon Elephant Power, and even my Qi Blood Power, to circulate silently and without a trace.’
Chu Lingguang muttered to himself.
And so, he sat on his bed and began practicing the Turtle Breath Technique once more.
He vaguely rembered.
On the day his Turtle Breath Technique resonated with Heaven and Earth, Wang Chao had been standing right next to him and had almost been unable to sense his presence at all.
Now, his Qi Blood had grown stronger. He had also awakened his Dragon Elephant Power, gained the ability of Introspection, and even ford a Qi Vortex in his abdon.
Chu Lingguang felt that finding the point of resonance between the Turtle Breath Technique and Heaven and Earth should be easier now. Even though he had stumbled into that state by accident last ti, he believed that with a focused effort, he could find the key to it.
「The next morning.」
Xue Bingsheng, who had been racking his brain all night, refused to accept his defeat. He challenged Chu Lingguang again, only to end up losing once more.
Yuan Zeng imdiately took his place.
As a third-round candidate from Taihu Academy, Yuan Zeng was stronger than Xue Bingsheng. Having watched Chu Lingguang fight Xue Bingsheng all day yesterday, Yuan Zeng knew what to expect as a sparring partner today. He chose to use a spear technique to face Chu Lingguang.
His Wandering Dragon Spear Skill was balanced in both offense and defense. Since leaving the academy, he had awakened a total of seven Bloodline Dragon Elephants: six in his main ridians and one in a branch ridian.
His Dragon Elephant Power was exceedingly dense.
Coupled with his early practice of an Advanced Breathing thod, his Qi Power was also particularly terrifying. In their initial clash, Chu Lingguang was at a disadvantage because he wasn’t familiar with Yuan Zeng.
"BOOM!"
Yuan Zeng seized the montum, smashing his spear down on Chu Lingguang with all his might.
Chu Lingguang used the Circulation Operation Skill, unleashing the strongest Qi Force from his Dragon Elephant Power to et Yuan Zeng’s Long Spear head-on.
Dust and sand flew up from behind Chu Lingguang’s heels. The Heaven and Earth technique deflected most of the impact, and he only retreated two steps. Yuan Zeng, on the other hand, slid back several ters.
When it ca to Dragon Elephant Power, Chu Lingguang had the clear advantage.
Furthermore, he had cultivated his Circulation Operation Skill to Perfection, allowing him to better unleash his Dragon Elephant Power. He even applied the principles of the Unity of Man and Gun in his final strike. Defeating him would not be easy for Yuan Zeng.
The only reason he had been suppressed by Yuan Zeng initially was his lack of familiarity with his opponent.
Once Chu Lingguang figured out his opponent’s patterns, the only advantage Yuan Zeng had was the higher level of his Spear Technique’s moves. After that, the outco was almost the sa as with Xue Bingsheng.
At first, he was rely pushed back by Chu Lingguang. Later, his footing beca unsteady, and he was even sent flying by a single blow from Chu Lingguang’s spear. Aside from not having Chu Lingguang’s spear tip at his throat, he experienced everything Xue Bingsheng had.
「That night.」
Chu Lingguang continued to practice the Turtle Breath Technique.
「Late that night.」
The response of the Dragon’s Roar and Elephant’s Wail within his Dai ridian reached a crescendo.
Chu Lingguang was a little surprised.
He knew he was on the verge of awakening the Dragon Elephant Power in this ridian within the next few days. He just hadn’t expected to capture its stirring through Introspection while practicing the Turtle Breath Technique, allowing him to awaken it in one go.
"Chu Lingguang, let’s have another match today."
「The next day.」
Yuan Zeng challenged Chu Lingguang once more.
He hadn’t slept at all the previous night, wracking his brain for a way to use his superior Spear Technique to cleverly defeat Chu Lingguang, only to conclude that it was simply impossible.
To defeat Chu Lingguang, he would have to use his signature skill: fighting with dual blades.
Chu Lingguang rembered Yuan Zeng saying that his dual-blade offense and defense were impenetrable, sothing not even Lian Junmiao could easily break through.
So, facing Yuan Zeng again, he didn’t dare to let his guard down for a mont.
One hundred and thirty rounds later.
"BANG!"
Yuan Zeng’s body went flying, crashing onto the Stone Locks. His dual blades fell from his hands and clattered to the ground.
Hu Yong, Lian Junmiao, and the others stared at Chu Lingguang, their jaws hanging open in disbelief. In just one night, Chu Lingguang seed to have beco much stronger than he was yesterday.
