RBCT Chapter 3 Emerging from Seclusion
Chapter 3 Emerging from Seclusion
"It's time to come out of quarantine."
This seclusion lasted 12 days, three days less than Qin Fengqing had expected.
However, in these 12 days, Qin Fengqing transformed from a second-grade high-level martial artist with 350 calories of bone tempering to a third-grade martial artist with 999 calories of bone tempering after four rounds of bone tempering.
"Next...we'll enter the underground cave!"
Qin Fengqing washed up, cleansing her body, which was covered in impurities after the cleansing and marrow-refining process.
After leaving the dormitory, Qin Fengqing took a breath of fresh air and then headed to the Magic Martial Arts Logistics Department, intending to use the 200 credits awarded by the school for breaking through to the third rank to purchase supplies in preparation for going down into the underground caves.
Upon arriving at the logistics department, it was currently on holiday, and there were only a few teachers present, among whom Li Changsheng was at one of the windows.
"Hello teacher, I'm here to collect the 200 credits awarded for breaking through to the third rank in the school."
Qin Fengqing walked straight to Li Changsheng's window and said.
At first, Li Changsheng didn't react much, but then he felt Qin Fengqing's vigorous blood and energy, which was like a furnace.
This kid is interesting. Isn't he Qin Nansheng's son?
The teacher just mentioned a while ago that he was defeated by King Jin Yang of the Southern Wu Kingdom.
"Kid, did you just break through to a higher level?"
Li Changsheng looked at Qin Fengqing and asked...
"By sheer luck, I've made it through. I'll be coming to the logistics department right away to update my information and collect my credits."
Hehehe, Li Changsheng chuckled after hearing this. A stroke of luck, perhaps...
After updating the information on the computer, Li Changsheng said, "Kid, that's fine. The information is updated, and the credits have been transferred to you."
"Someone should contact you later to ask you to learn about some things and remember the past."
Qin Fengqing nodded: "Understood, teacher." Then Qin Fengqing turned and left.
Watching Qin Fengqing's departing figure, Li Changsheng murmured, "Qin Nansheng, now your son is about to enter the underground cave. I hope he can inherit your mantle."
"The fatal blade... sigh..."
That noon, someone contacted Qin Fengqing and asked her to attend class in classroom 01 of the training building three days later.
Qin Fengqing was very familiar with this. This was the school's initial training for students who had broken through to the third rank, which involved understanding the distribution of power and terrain within the underground caves.
Qin Fengqing's immediate priority is to familiarize himself with the surge in his Qi and Blood. After his Qi and Blood increased from 350 calories to 999 calories, his control over them has become much weaker. Qin Fengqing needs to master his ultimate moves and killer moves as soon as possible.
Qin Fengqing arrived at the training ground and drew his sword to strike.
"The First Move of the Deadly Blade - Body Severing"
"The Second Form of the Deadly Blade - Soul Severance"
"The Third Form of the Deadly Blade - Soul Destruction"
"Fourth Form of the Deadly Blade - Annihilation of Consciousness"
"The Fifth Form of the Deadly Blade - Death"
Qin Fengqing unleashed five consecutive slashes, each slash releasing 100 units of energy.
"After the breakthrough, my control over Qi and blood has decreased significantly." Qin Fengqing felt the depletion of his own Qi and blood.
Another slash was delivered, the two swords merging into one.
"Severing the body—severing the soul!"
The combined use of two swords unleashed 120 units of health.
The Deadly Blade Technique is an intermediate-level combat technique left behind by Qin Fengqing's father. It consists of five forms, and the higher the upper limit of blood and qi bursts, the more each additional form is combined.
Qin Fengqing then unleashed five more strikes, combining the five techniques into one, unleashing 200 units of energy.
"The control over Qi and Blood is too poor. Even when the five moves are combined, it can only unleash an explosion of 200 units of Qi and Blood, barely reaching the limit of the ultimate move."
Qin Fengqing was rather dissatisfied with this level of control over Qi and blood.
Qin Fengqing knew she had to master a trump card before entering the underground cave.
Qin Fengqing possesses a staggering 999 units of Qi and Blood. With his trump card, he can instantly unleash one-third to one-half of his entire body's Qi and Blood, enough to kill even a fourth-rank opponent!
With the system's help, Qin Fengqing no longer needs to worry about consuming resources to continuously cultivate his combat techniques.
Qin Fengqing kept slashing, constantly experiencing the changes in his body.
Through continuous practice, Qin Fengqing's control over his Qi and blood also improved.
"Five cuts combined into one!" Qin Fengqing unleashed 300 units of Qi and blood with a single slash.
"Finally, we've mastered our trump card!"
Qi and Blood Value: 630 calories (1050 calories)
Mental strength: 540 Hz (585 Hz)
Bone tempering: 126 pieces (91%) 80 pieces (41%)
As Qin Fengqing continuously consumed and replenished her Qi and Blood, her Qi and Blood limit finally exceeded 1000.
However, during his cultivation, Qin Fengqing discovered that his system still had certain limitations.
Fang Ping's system requires wealth points to unlock functions, while Qin Fengqing's system does not require wealth points, but requires reaching each cultivation level to unlock the next function.
In other words, if Qin Fengqing wants to possess infinite indestructible matter, he must cultivate to the 7th rank Grandmaster level.
As a result, it was impossible to retrieve the immortal substance and hand it over to the old headmaster before the Battle of Hope City.
However, the functions of aura simulation and energy barrier are still intact, so it is still possible to sneak into the royal city to steal life essence after a major battle, just like Fang Ping did.
"There's still plenty of time before the battle for Hope City. If he can reach the Grandmaster level before the battle, then the old man will be saved."
After thinking it over, Qin Fengqing resumed her cultivation.
……
The time spent cultivating is always very short; in the blink of an eye, half a day has already passed.
Qin Fengqing looked out the window; it was already getting dark.
Qin Fengqing also received a notice from the school that she should go to classroom A02 of the teaching building this Friday for a training course.
Qin Fengqing was naturally familiar with the training content. In his previous life, after breaking through to the third rank, he had also undergone training courses.
The main content of the course is training in professional knowledge about caves, mainly the distribution and geographical location of cave forces, as well as some basic knowledge about caves.
This is undoubtedly very useful for a martial artist who is about to enter the underground cave after breaking through to the third rank. At least in the early stages of entering the underground cave, they will not be completely clueless and will be able to gain a certain understanding of the underground cave.
Qin Fengqing's current strength of Rank 3 is considered quite impressive within the Magic and Martial Arts Academy.
He was the first student in his freshman year to break through to the third rank.
Qin Fengqing and Da Fangping served two terms.
In her previous life, Qin Fengqing's ability to cultivate to the advanced second rank after a crushing defeat to Wang Jinyang was already a result of breaking through and rebuilding.
Wang Jinyang has only just broken through to the peak of the second rank. He has probably spent all his resources and is now worried about raising the resources to break through to the third rank.
Nowadays, even including third- and fourth-year students, there aren't many students at Magic Martial Arts University who have reached the third rank.
Many martial artists who reach the third rank are senior students, and this is not only the case at Magic Martial Arts University, but also at Beijing Martial Arts University or other martial arts universities.
Now it's already the second semester of sophomore year, and by the time students graduate in their senior year, the number of third-grade martial arts students will decrease further.
It will take until next year for this number to recover.
Qin Fengqing estimated that there wouldn't be many people attending the class together, because the school conducts training uniformly within a certain time period.
If Qin Fengqing's memory serves him correctly, Zhang Yu should have already broken through to the third rank of martial artist by this time, and might even be training with him.
