31: Chapter 20 Comprehension 31: Chapter 20 Comprehension The sa chill emanated from two sources, counting down simultaneously, and through Zhang Yu’s multiple attempts, he realized that the direction of coercion from these two ritual powers was different.
One stopped counting down after he absorbed the spirit machine.
The other stopped counting down after he comprehended the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
Instantly, Zhang Yu beca more certain of one thing: one of the countdowns was fake.
“It’s probably the effect brought by the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.”
“Confronting the fear in my heart…
is this why the ritual power repressed again?”
“But who would have thought that the ritual power recreated by the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts would conflict with the real ritual power in ?”
But which of the two ritual powers was the fake one?
“Is it the one that stops counting down after I absorb energy?”
“Or the one that stops after I comprehend the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts?”
Zhang Yu leaned towards the latter but couldn’t make a quick decision.
Because the cost of choosing wrong was death.
“Which side should I choose?”
Listening to the countdown constantly changing in his heart, Zhang Yu found himself in a dilemma, unable to make a decision.
“Since I can’t choose, I might as well not choose at all.”
His gaze focused, and he made a resolution: “I’ll consider both countdowns as real.”
Then Zhang Yu sat cross-legged on the spot and started to operate the Circulation Qi Gathering thod, absorbing the spirit machine between heaven and earth.
As the countdown in his heart progressed from 10 to 5 and then to 3, Zhang Yu stood up again, looking towards the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, trying to comprehend the martial arts contained within.
In this way, Zhang Yu alternated between using the Circulation Qi Gathering thod and comprehending the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, advancing in turn under the pressure of both countdowns.
anwhile, people at the exhibition gradually noticed Zhang Yu’s unusual behavior.
The Songyang City director of the Immortal Rhythm Group, curiously observing Zhang Yu, said, “This kid is sotis absorbing, sotis standing up to comprehend martial arts.
What has he seen?”
Beside him, Li Xuelian also cast her gaze at Zhang Yu, pondering, “It looks as if soone is forcing him to absorb energy.”
“Perhaps it’s out of respect for a certain teacher in reality.”
At this mont, Zhang Yu switched his actions again, stopping his absorption and starting to practice the Thirty-Six Forms of Body Building.
It turned out that Zhang Yu suddenly realized sothing: the countdown that stopped after his absorption might not essentially be forcing him to absorb but pushing him along the paths of learning, cultivating, going to college, and earning a living.
So he began to try doing martial arts while looking at the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
Since his muscle mory was already established for the Thirty-Six Forms of Body Building, if he could comprehend the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts while practicing, he could focus most of his mind on the Diagram.
After all, his main goal at this mont was to comprehend the martial arts in the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
Once this attempt was successful, he felt that practicing while comprehending was still slightly cumberso, so he took out his phone to see if he could read through textbooks while comprehending the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
Since going through textbooks wasn’t an issue, he played the textbook audio aloud from his phone, listening to the content while comprehending the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
…
Li Xuelian, looking at Zhang Yu absorbing, practicing martial arts, and studying simultaneously, sincerely lanted, “This child must have a particularly strict teacher behind him, forcing him to work hard every step of the way, even becoming a horrifying image in his heart.”
“Let’s see if he can break through these layers of pressure with his thoughts…”
But just as Li Xuelian finished speaking, Zhang Yu surprisingly moved away from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, heading directly to the buffet table, grabbing a large plate of seafood before heading back to the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts to eat and comprehend at the sa ti.
As he recalled that eating should also not be hindered by the rituals.
Seeing this scene, Li Xuelian, slightly surprised, said, “Oh?
He’s making breakthroughs so quickly, did he just establish a mindset to let go under pressure?
This way, he can confront the fear in his heart and continue to comprehend the martial arts in the Diagram.”
“Maybe he hasn’t even noticed that, unconsciously, he has already conquered his inner fear and passed this test of the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, acting as usual.”
As a security guard approached to stop Zhang Yu, Li Xuelian waved her hand, dismissing them, while she beca curious about how much Zhang Yu could comprehend from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
As Zhang Yu ate a lobster while looking at the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, he gradually ca to see what martial arts the figure was practicing.
“It seems to be a set of fist techniques?”
The fist techniques themselves were not complex, and Zhang Yu got a vague idea after watching them a few tis, but upon looking at his Yu Shu, he found no changes at all, indicating that he hadn’t truly learned this martial art, let alone mastered it.
Based on his experience learning High School Basic Sword Technique and Circulation Qi Gathering thod, he should have easily displayed a level 0 for similar martial arts on the Yu Shu after one glance.
“What’s going wrong?”
At that mont, Lian Tianji laughed loudly, filled with confidence, and said, “I’ve completely understood the martial arts within!
Indeed, it’s a brilliant hand technique.”
Yet, before he finished speaking, Qian Shen not far away interjected, “What hand technique?
It’s clearly a leg technique.”
Ordinarily, with a total score of 600, Qian Shen would never dare speak loudly in front of a total score of 670.
But after undergoing a tempering of the Dao Heart from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, it was when Qian Shen’s courage was at its peak.
This discussion quickly t with other objections from the people.
So argued, “No, no, it’s clear from within that it’s a knife technique.”
Others began taunting indiscriminately, “A bunch of blind people, that’s clearly a finger technique.”
Bai Zhenzhen slightly furrowed her brows; what she saw was a swordsmanship.
Evidently, while Zhang Yu was eating and comprehending, more and more students had already completed their comprehension of the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
As Lian Tianji listened to the discussion, he simply turned his gaze to Li Xuelian and asked, “Ms.
Li, do you know what martial art the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts is hiding?”
Seeing everyone’s attention turned towards her, Li Xuelian rely smiled slightly and said, “I cannot disclose what specific martial art it is.”
“But let remind everyone, there is mystery within the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
Should anyone present master the martial arts within, there will be a clear indication.”
The crowd understood, indicating that whoever at the scene mastered the martial arts from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, there would naturally be a prompt appearing.
Thinking of this, Lian Tianji stepped forward without hesitation.
Being from Purple Cloud High School, Lian Tianji naturally exhibited the absolute confidence of a prodigy.
Having just undergone the test, his confidence soared to a peak state, and at this mont, he perford the set of hand techniques he had just comprehended from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
With each move, there were thunderous sounds, and surging power and murderous intent erupted from his body, seeming to blast the entire exhibition.
In the distance, Zhao Tianxing had been observing the result from this side and was filled with amazent upon seeing this scene.
“What trendous physical strength, what terrifying hand techniques, this is a combative killing martial art.”
Though Lian Tianji’s physical strength was formidable among the first-year students, there were many Cultivators who had long since graduated from high school present.
They were more surprised by the proficiency with which Lian Tianji demonstrated this martial art.
Soone marveled internally, “Did he really interpret the hand technique from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts just now?
Every move is so refined, confirming that Purple Cloud High School’s top student is indeed a genius among geniuses.”
Yet, after Lian Tianji perford the hand technique, the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts did not move at all, showing no reaction.
“How could this be?” Lian Tianji questioned in disbelief, “I clearly mastered the martial arts on the Diagram.
How can it not be the case?”
Qian Shen chuckled, stepped forward, and stood before Lian Tianji, “As I’ve already said, it’s a leg technique.”
Following this, he also showcased the martial arts he comprehended from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts, though his demonstration was not as composed as Lian Tianji’s, the execution of the moves was already skillful and familiar.
Watching this scene, Bai Zhenzhen furrowed her brow again, “Is this a body refining martial art?
Specifically for training legs.”
And as Qian Shen completed the final move, the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts still remained motionless, without any anomalies.
“How could this be?”
Uttering the sa words as Lian Tianji, Qian Shen looked at the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts in disbelief.
Subsequently, students approached successively to exhibit the martial arts they comprehended.
Including Lian Tianji, Qian Shen, a total of 12 students displayed nine sets of martial arts encompassing fists, hands, legs, fingers, claws, knife, sword, spear, and staff.
Among them, three individuals’ comprehended martial arts overlapped with others’.
Yet, after this round of martial arts demonstration, none managed to trigger a response from the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts.
Lian Tianji couldn’t help but turn to Li Xuelian, asking again, “Ms.
Li, among so many of us, did none of us succeed?”
Li Xuelian didn’t respond verbally, rely shaking her head slightly, eyes seemingly harboring disappointnt.
At this mont, Bai Zhenzhen slowly ca forward, under the gaze of all, substituting her fingers for a sword, and perford a set of swordsmanship.
Although this swordsmanship was extrely sharp, and Bai Zhenzhen’s every move was excellent, the onlookers quickly lost interest after a few glimpses.
After all, two individuals had previously demonstrated sword techniques, without affecting the Diagram.
Yet, after Bai Zhenzhen perford this swordsmanship, the style changed, and she substituted her hands for knives, to perform a set of knife techniques.
Then ca fist techniques, hand techniques, leg techniques…
Zhao Tianxing exclaid, “Did Bai Zhenzhen learn all the martial arts that everyone was demonstrating?”
Lian Tianji frowned watching this, thinking, “In such a short ti, she saw and can perform all the martial arts demonstrated by others.
Which top high school does this woman belong to?”
Watching Bai Zhenzhen, executing every move as if she had practiced for a long period, Qian Shen’s thoughts churned.
On one hand, he was amazed that Bai Zhenzhen could perform all nine sets of martial arts, yet on the other, a doubt constantly rose in his mind, “Can performing all nine sets of martial arts really succeed?”
And at this mont, in the sight of many astonished onlookers, the man in the Diagram of Heavenly Martial Arts moved, surprisingly smiling at Bai Zhenzhen, as two words erged on the scroll.
Well done.
