I Stepped on a Bug, and the System Says I Slayed a Dragon? Chapter 39: Cultivation Technique Fusion: Grandmaster Level

Jianghai Martial Arts Academy, Martial Arts Plaza.

A Grandmaster Level Star Force Technique lay right before their eyes, driving everyone into a frenzy.

RUSH!

In an instant, the crowd surged, everyone trying to squeeze toward the stele.

The teachers and students at the front stared wide-eyed, desperately trying to morize the stele’s contents. Farther back, people stood on tiptoe or shoved others aside, struggling to peer over the sea of bobbing heads toward the center of the plaza.

"Old Qin, this is a Grandmaster Level technique! Even if it’s incomplete, it’s still incredibly valuable!"

In the crowd, Xia He excitedly grabbed Qin Yang’s arm. Gazing at the inscribed stele, he said, "We really hit the jackpot this ti!"

"Mm."

Qin Yang nodded. He looked at the words on the stele, then glanced over at Lin Mofeng.

His respect for the man grew instantly.

He had to admit, the guy was truly magnanimous.

He had sothing good, and he shared it with his juniors without a second thought.

He and Xia He had co to the lecture, and using the pass they’d wrangled to stand in the front row felt amazing.

Talk about a visit from the emperor—

A king-sized win!

The surrounding teachers and students were just as emotional, their faces etched with excitent.

"Senior Brother Lin is a fucking legend! If he sold this technique, he’d be set for life. And he’s just giving it to us for free?!"

"Is that all you can think about? With Senior Brother Lin’s status, you think he needs money?"

"Passing on the myriad techniques, forging a path for the masses... this is on par with the Jianghai Sword God’s Sword Valley and Broken Peak Mountain!"

Waves of praise rose up, swirling around Lin Mofeng. Barring any surprises, he was bound to be the number one trending topic tomorrow, his fa spreading far and wide.

After all, most people treated Grandmaster Level techniques like family heirlooms, keeping them under lock and key.

An act like Lin Mofeng’s—publicly sharing it for free—was simply unprecedented.

After the chaotic excitent from the teachers and students died down a little, Elder Li stepped forward. He raised a hand to address the crowd.

"Alright, everyone, quiet down!"

His voice bood like a tidal wave, instantly overwhelming the plaza’s cacophony and drawing all eyes to him.

"I know you’re all very excited, but the lecture isn’t over yet. Please maintain proper decorum and don’t disgrace the academy."

With that, Elder Li turned to Lin Mofeng beside him, his voice filled with pleased emotion.

"Mo Feng, I haven’t seen you in a few years, and you’ve grown so much. Now, even I can no longer keep up with you."

"You’re too kind, Teacher."

Lin Mofeng nodded humbly. "I left this technique, first, for my juniors, and second, to give you a helping hand in your breakthrough to Grandmaster."

As soon as he finished speaking, the look Elder Li gave Lin Mofeng softened even more.

He had, after all, been stuck in the Innate Realm for more than a decade.

But now, with this Grandmaster Technique, there was finally a chance he could break out of the Innate Realm!

He could invite the Chief Commander of the Star Martial Police Bureau and the Library’s Hall Master to observe it with him.

If things went well, Jianghai City might soon have three Grandmasters watching over it. The city’s combat strength would grow exponentially!

At this thought, tears faintly shimred in the corners of Elder Li’s eyes. He said with deep gratification,

"Good, good, good... You are truly thoughtful. Truly.

This Grandmaster Stele is a priceless treasure. We at the Jianghai Martial Arts Academy will guard it well. No one will be allowed within three ters of it; it can only be observed from a distance."

Hearing this, Lin Mofeng nodded slightly. "It shall be as you say, Teacher."

’Now that the technique was carved onto the stele, it was like water that had been spilled—it was all under the academy’s managent.’

By this point, the lecture had concluded.

Lin Mofeng chatted with Elder Li for a while longer before leaving the plaza with him.

A small number of teachers and students followed them out.

The majority, however, remained behind, eager to study the stele.

However, academy staff acted quickly, arriving to form a human wall that kept everyone three ters away before dispersing the remaining students.

It would only reopen tomorrow, after the plaza had been properly arranged....

Seeing this from the crowd, Xia He couldn’t help but curse out loud.

"Fuck! This pass was only good for one ti! How the hell am I supposed to see it now?!"

He’d even tried taking a picture of the stele with his phone a mont ago.

But he’d found that the stele Lin Mofeng had carved was emanating a massive amount of Star Force, creating an interference field.

Any photos he took ca out blurry and completely indecipherable.

And as for trying to brute-force morize it... that was even more difficult.

A technique from the Grandmaster Realm vaguely resonates with the world itself. Without exceptional Comprehension to aid them, when an ordinary Postnatal Realm Martial Artist viewed it, it was like water off a duck’s back—they gained almost nothing.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say they’d forget it the mont they looked away....

"How much did you morize, Old Qin?"

On the way back, a dejected Xia He asked Qin Yang.

"Not much."

Qin Yang thought for a mont, then replied nonchalantly, "Just a little."

"Just a little?"

Xia He was instantly relieved. He grinned and slung his arm around Qin Yang’s shoulder.

"Don’t get down about it, Old Qin. I probably morized a few more lines than you did. If you get stuck, you can co ask ."

"..."

Bantering and chatting the whole way, the two soon returned to the library to resu their shift. Unhurried, Qin Yang ambled back to his designated slacking-off spot.

He found his usual comfortable spot and plopped down.

’Enlightennt Space, activate!’

As his consciousness sank into the Enlightennt Space, Qin Yang reviewed the Grandmaster Realm technique he had just morized.

He had copied it down completely, not a single word out of place.

It was as if the stele’s entire inscription had been moved into his mind, ready to be browsed at will.

’So much for mory hindrances. They’re nothing in the face of my Heaven-defying Comprehension.’

In his corner, Qin Yang let out a silly giggle, grinning from ear to ear.

’A Grandmaster Level Star Force Technique?’

’Yoink!’

After so review, Qin Yang got a general idea of what was missing from the Star Force Technique.

It was missing about twenty-six percent of its content and didn’t even have a na. He had no idea what backwater corner of the world Lin Mofeng had dredged it up from.

For an ordinary Grandmaster Realm expert, trying to reconstruct the complete version would be extrely difficult and incredibly risky.

One wrong step could lead to a cultivation deviation.

That would be a disastrous outco where you lose everything you started with.

However, for Qin Yang, none of this was a problem....

’Enlightennt Space, let’s see what your limits are!’

’Derivation, begin!’

The thought had barely crossed Qin Yang’s mind.

The next mont.

HUMMM!

Characters flew and danced in his mind, deriving the missing content. An ancient technique, lost to ti for a millennium, was restored to its perfect, whole form in a matter of monts.

’Halfway there.’

Qin Yang slowly exhaled, wiping a bead of sweat from his temple. Next, he began to fuse it with his own cultivation technique, the Star Spell.

Instantly.

The characters for both techniques appeared in his mind. They separated and recombined, constantly being refined and optimized, evolving as if they had a life of their own.

This process was slightly more difficult.

A full five minutes passed.

Qin Yang slowly opened his eyes, satisfied as he reviewed the contents of the new technique in his mind.

’A Grandmaster Level Star Spell. Now it’s mine!’
