Martial arts: Yue-breaking sword technique (34% entry level at the third level, can be improved; special effects: Explosion level 4, Yue-breaking strength level 1, life extension 20 years)
Looking at the martial arts column, Han Zhao silently thought in his mind: "Improve the 'Die Yue Sword Technique' to the second qi and blood breakthrough stage."
As soon as Han Zhao finished speaking, the 8-point attribute point flashed, the numbers began to jump, and the text on the martial arts column quickly blurred.
His body felt as hot as if he were holding a stove, his energy and blood increased sharply, and the feeling of muscle expansion appeared again.
It's just that after the severe pain of practicing the Diamond Art last time, this kind of pain is basically negligible to him.
And the feeling of surging Qi and blood is really intoxicating.
So cool!
Power surges from everywhere in the body.
[Attribute points: 8→3]
Martial arts: Yue-breaking sword technique (the third level is 88%, can be improved; special effects: burst level 5, Yue-breaking strength level 2, life extension 20 years)
The text on the property bar becomes clear again.
It is also the third level of small achievement, and it also consumes 5 attribute points. The Duanyue Sword Technique has improved the progress by 154% in one breath.
It adds more than the health formula.
The more powerful the skill, the smaller the percentage that can be improved by using attribute points, but the effect after improvement is more obvious.
Han Zhao mobilized the energy and blood in his body, and his arms began to feel hot.
He rolled up his sleeves and took a look. His arms turned red.
Soon, two black patterns resembling mountain peaks appeared on both of his arms.
"The second qi and blood stage of the blood training realm is nothing more than that."
Han Zhao adapted to the changes in his body, and his energy and blood tripled.
His current total energy and blood volume is already 7 times that of a normal skin training level warrior!
A quasi-martial artist who has reached the third qi and blood stage of the blood training realm has a total amount of qi and blood that is 4.5-7.5 times that of a normal skin training realm warrior.
Han Zhao is now one of the few people who ranks at the top in terms of total qi and blood volume alone in the three qi and blood stages.
When the total amount of qi and blood reaches this level, people usually step up their efforts to convert all the qi and blood into seal blood, then use the seal blood to increase the total amount of energy, and finally try to enter the energy.
Once you successfully break through the realm and are promoted to a martial arts master, you will achieve a class leap in one fell swoop.
"There is still a long way to go before the third qi and blood breakthrough. I'm afraid it won't be until the perfection stage."
Looking at the remaining 3 attribute points, Han Zhao did not continue to add more to the Duanyue Sword Technique.
As for health-preserving tips, it won’t make any waves after 3 o’clock.
"It can improve the Vajra Technique."
Martial Arts: Diamond Art (1% entry level for the first level, can be improved)
Han Zhao found the Diamond Art that had just completed its 'foundation' in the last column of the martial arts column, and said silently: "Improve the 'Vajra Art'."
[Attribute points: 3→0]
Severe pain instantly filled Han Zhao's body, and he once again experienced the pain that was worse than death.
"Hi~!" He gritted his teeth and did not cry out.
Fortunately, the pain only lasted for a moment and disappeared quickly.
Martial Arts: Diamond Jue (15% minor success at the first level, can be improved; special effect: Yi Jin Level 1)
"Good guy, it's so difficult to improve!"
Han Zhao couldn't help but frown slightly as he looked at the Vajra Art in the attribute column that had turned into a minor stage.
The 'original version' of the Health Preservation Technique only used 1 attribute point to upgrade to the minor stage. This Diamond Technique took 3 points.
Of course, the harder it is to improve, the stronger the skill is.
For the time being, he didn't feel any big changes in his body, but the root bone qualification only needed to be practiced for a period of time, and you would know how much it had improved by comparing the progress.
...
Five days later.
afternoon.
Shanshan Boxing Academy.
The courtyard, which originally accommodated fifty or sixty people without being crowded, was now surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.
In addition to the apprentices from the Shanshan Boxing Academy who were wearing black training uniforms, there were also warriors wearing gray, white, and green training uniforms.
After Zhang Tianwen broke through to the blood training realm, several martial arts schools that taught weapons gathered together again.
This is the tradition of the martial arts alliance, but it is not mandatory.
The previous time Zhao Yuantu broke through to the blood training realm, it was just a private exchange between a few martial arts schools that taught boxing and kicking. It was not as big a fanfare as the last time Meng Zhi broke through, making everyone in Black Rock City aware of it.
This time Zhang Tianwen made a breakthrough, the three martial arts schools of Bawangqiang, Feiyundao, and Zanzajian all sent their disciples who were in the blood training realm to come and communicate with Duanyue Dao.
Warriors who practice weapons are naturally stronger than those who practice boxing and kicking at the same level.
Therefore, this kind of exchange also attracted apprentices from major martial arts schools to spontaneously come to observe.
At this time, Han Zhao stood tall in the field wearing a blue outfit.
clang!
He slashed out with his sword and swung away the long sword of the girl in green in front of him. The long sword fell smoothly, and then he raised the other short sword from the girl's hand and flew it out. The blade was placed across the girl's neck.
Han Zhao put the sword back into its sheath, cupped his fists and saluted: "I accept."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Han, for showing mercy."
The girl in green had blushing cheeks and looked at Han Zhao eagerly.
"Please." Han Zhao looked calm and stretched out his hand to signal her to stop.
The girl in green bit her lip lightly, stamped her feet angrily, and ran towards the outside.
Her fellow disciples were jealous, but they had all been defeated by Han Zhao and could no longer play.
Lu Yi looked at Han Zhao with a smile on his face. Although this kid usually liked to cheat and play tricks, he never compromised on his promises.
One person picked out seven or eight disciples from three martial arts schools in a row. His performance at the level of the Bone Refining Realm was unmatched by anyone in Black Rock City.
Watching Han Zhao draw his sword was simply a pleasure to watch, and it really gave him a great face.
"Junior Brother Han is indeed very skilled in swordsmanship, which makes me a little bit nervous. Why don't I practice with you?"
At this time, a young man in white with an ordinary appearance and a strong build walked into the field and took out two combinable stainless steel short guns from his back waist.
This person is the representative of Bawang Boxing Academy, Meng Zhi who broke through the blood training realm before he was twenty years old.
Because of Han Zhao's outstanding performance, his classmates and brothers from the same discipline as Yourong Yan were all moved by it.
"Isn't this bullying?!"
Someone immediately expressed dissatisfaction.
Meng Zhi smiled faintly: "Junior Brother Han, don't be afraid. I will only use the power of the Bone Refining Realm to fight you, and I won't bully you."
Having said that, even without mobilizing Qi and blood, the basic strength of the Blood Training Realm alone is much stronger than the Bone Refining Realm.
Of course, during the previous competition, Han Zhao was cautious from beginning to end, fearing that he would be too strong and hurt someone.
Now that Meng Zhi is on the stage, it just gives him a chance to exit.
It would be rude to win any more.
"Senior brother, please enlighten me." Han Zhao smiled.
"Be careful!" After Meng Zhi loaded up his spear, he stepped forward and stabbed with the spear.
Dang, Dang, Dang! !
Han Zhao danced the long knife in his hand so tightly that it seemed as if a net of knives had formed in front of him, blocking all Meng Zhi's moves.
"Senior Brother Han is mighty!"
"so amazing!"
Before the disciples from this martial arts school could say anything, the female disciples from several other martial arts schools cheered for Han Zhao.
"Junior Brother Han!!!" When Xu Ling saw this, he gathered his hands and shouted at the top of his lungs, suppressing the voices of the female disciples.
Han Zhao was also startled by her sudden shout.
Whoosh!
A sharp sound broke through the air, and Meng Zhi suddenly accelerated and thrust his gun towards Han Zhao's face.
As a genius disciple of the blood training realm, he couldn't take down a Han Zhao with the power of the same realm. This made him feel that he couldn't hold it in his face, so he ignored the agreement just now and used part of his energy and blood power.
clang!
When Han Zhao saw the momentum of his shooting, he knew that the time had come, and immediately hit Meng Zhi's spear head with his knife, and the tip of the spear missed him.
Han Zhao also used the force of the counter-shock to fly backwards. He naturally opened his arms and assumed the posture of a roc spreading its wings. He lightly tapped the ground with the toes of his right foot and floated back seven or eight meters away. .
"匌啷～"
The moment he landed, Han Zhao carried the long knife behind his back according to his inertia, raised the scabbard, completed the holding of the knife behind his back, and landed steadily beside Xu Ling.
"Junior brother Han is so handsome... and has great body skills!"
Wu Shuang, the daughter of the county magistrate Wu Di, exclaimed, but her eyes were fixed on Han Zhao's face.
Although the strong are respected in this world, if he grows up to be like Junior Brother Han, then it would be acceptable to not be that strong in terms of strength.
What's more, her father is the strongest man in the city, and her brother is also a master of three levels of qi and blood, so force is secondary to her.
This Junior Brother Han, even when he loses, he loses so coolly, which is really admirable.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Meng, for your advice." Han Zhao cupped his fists and saluted Meng Zhi.
"It's good that I didn't hurt Junior Brother Han." Meng Zhi's face looked a little ugly. It was obvious that he had won, but looking at the expressions of the people around him, it looked like he had lost.
"You agreed to only use the power of the Bone Refining Realm. Junior Brother Meng, did you break your promise?"
Zhao Yuantu, who was standing next to Lu Yi, walked into the field.
"I missed it for a moment. I just didn't expect Junior Brother Han to be so careless." Meng Zhi's face darkened, and then he suddenly smiled and said: "Why don't you come and fight with me, Senior Brother Zhao? It should be fair, right?"
"This...good!" Zhao Yuantu took out the black gold boxing gloves from his arms and put them on his hands.
Because Zhang Tianwen didn't know where he went, so in order to prevent someone from causing trouble, Lu Yi called Zhao Yuantu.
"Junior Brother Meng, be careful." Zhao Yuantu clasped his fists in salute, then attacked with a fist.
"Okay!" Meng Zhi laughed loudly, blood surged throughout his body, and his arms exposed in the white short-sleeved uniform turned black. He used all his strength as soon as he came up.
"Take my move! Overlord raises the cauldron!"
The gun body fell with thunderous force.
Zhao Yuantu thought it was just a sparring match, but he didn't expect Meng Zhi to come so suddenly. It was already too late for him to try his best at this time.
He could only punch hard and receive the blow forcefully.
Bang! ! !
Zhao Yuantu took three steps back and then managed to steady his body, his arms trembling uncontrollably.
His fists were wrapped in black gold gloves, and it could be seen that they were black and red inside.
Meng Zhi stamped his spear on the ground, creating a small hole in the stone slab. Then he cupped his fists, smiled, and said proudly: "Senior Brother Zhao, I accept the concession!"
Lu Yi frowned. He didn't expect that although Meng Zhi was very talented, his character was so bad.
It's understandable that young people are competitive, but it's really unbearable to cheat in this kind of sparring competition.
However, if he loses, he loses, and it is impossible for him, a great martial artist, to end in person.
Thinking of this, Lu Yi couldn't help but glance at Han Zhao aside. With this kid's talent in swordsmanship, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat Meng Zhi if he breaks through to the blood training realm.
"Master Lu?" Han Zhao saw Lu Yi staring at him and blinked at him. He fulfilled his promise without compromise.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yi felt angry and funny. He turned to look at Zhao Yuantu, "Yuantu, are you okay?"
Zhao Yuantu shook his head at Lu Yi, calmed down the surging energy and blood in his body, and then wanted to continue.
At this time, Zhang Tianwen, who had never appeared, suddenly walked in from the gate, followed by Xu Jin, Fang Hongyun and others.
"Junior Brother Meng, let me come and meet you."
Zheng!
Zhang Tianwen jumped from the steps, drew out the long knife from his waist and attacked Meng Zhi.
"Well done!" Meng Zhi drew out his spear and went forward.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
The figures of the two people moved around in the field, and everyone was dazzled by it.
"good!"
"Senior Brother Zhang is mighty!"
"Well done, Senior Brother Zhang!"
Seeing that Zhang Tianwen was not inferior to Meng Zhi who defeated Zhao Yuantu with one move, everyone in the field cheered.
Han Zhao shook his head and laughed, and the two of them were just playing a double act!
"Elder brother, how are you?" Han Zhao walked to Zhao Yuantu's side and asked about the situation.
"It's nothing serious. Don't be impulsive." Zhao Yuantu took off his boxing gloves and moved his bruised joints.
Han Zhao nodded, glanced at Meng Zhi in the field, and said nothing.
clang--!
With a loud sound of gold and iron clashing, the two people in the field separated.
"Senior Brother Zhang is good at swordsmanship, but I'm not as good as you."
"Junior Brother Meng's marksmanship is even better."
"How about we just call it a draw?"
"Okay! It's a draw!"
The two looked like heroes cherishing each other.
There were cheers again in the field.
At this time, Zhang Tianwen came to Lu Yi, cupped his fists and saluted, "Master Lu."
"Not bad." Lu Yi nodded. Although he could clearly see the two people's tricks, he couldn't expose them, otherwise he would be slapped in the face.
"Master Lu, I have a favor to ask you!"
"Say it."
"This disciple has always been enamored of Junior Sister Xu, and even asked Master Lu to help go to the Xu family for matchmaking!" Zhang Tianwen said with a smile on his face.
As he spoke, he glanced at Han Zhao with a provocative expression.
"This..." Lu Yi was stunned. He could see the signs of Han Zhao and Xu Ling, so naturally he would not do such a thing.
"Zhang Tianwen! Don't even think about it!" Xu Ling raised her eyebrows.
"Third sister! You have said too much. Don't dad and I still have the final say in your marriage?!"
Xu Jin on the side stepped forward, acting like an elder brother.
"Junior Sister Xu, isn't it clear at a glance how to choose? Senior Brother Zhang is a handsome young man, and cannot be compared to some people with superficial appearance. He who is good-looking can only be regarded as a man's favorite, and he will not be on the stage."
Meng Zhi also echoed, staring at Han Zhao meaningfully.
【......】
"What did you say?!" Zhao Yuantu looked angry and was about to step forward.
Han Zhao stopped him and said, "Senior Brother, forget it."
【......】
With that said, Han Zhao walked up to Xu Ling again, held her hand, and scratched her palm to signal her not to get excited.
"That's enough!" Lu Yi suddenly stood up, "Today is just a boxing match in the martial arts gym, this is not a vegetable market!"
Seeing the sullen look on Lu Yi's face, Zhang Tianwen quickly waved his hand, "I just want to say it first, everyone, please stop arguing. I am happy today, let's go have a drink! I'll treat you!"
"That's great!"
"Go drink!"
Zhang Tianwen was shouted out of the yard.
Several other martial arts disciples bowed to Lu Yi and left one after another.
Han Zhao's face was as calm as water.
Lu Yi walked up to him, patted his shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Practice hard and wait until you break through to the blood training realm."
Although Zhang Tianwen has broken through to the blood training realm, he is not good at both his character and understanding. Lu Yi has always been dissatisfied. Moreover, when he checked a few days ago, he felt that Zhang Tianwen's qi and blood were a little strange.
With this attitude once he succeeds, it is conceivable that if Zhang Tianwen becomes a martial arts master one day, I am afraid that he, the master, may not be able to enjoy the blessings, but will suffer.
"I will work hard, Master."
Han Zhao smiled, said goodbye to Lu Yi, held Xu Ling's hand, and walked out of the martial arts gym.
****
The night is dark and windy.
Zuiyue Tower.
The entire private room on the second floor was booked.
In the largest box in the middle, Zhang Tianwen was surrounded by everyone.
I saw his face glowing red, holding a beautiful girl in his arms, holding the wine glass high: "Drink! Drink to your heart's content! Those who came in vertically today must go out horizontally! Otherwise, you won't give me face!"
Zhang Tianwen was in high spirits, and felt that the depression accumulated in his chest over the past few years had been swept away.
At this moment, I have reached the peak of my life!
Breaking through the blood training realm was just the beginning. He had already fantasized about becoming a martial arts master, dominating Black Rock City with Meng Zhi, and becoming a local emperor.
None of those who had a grudge against him would have a good time.
"I...I...can't do it anymore! Hiccup~ I have to go to the side...for convenience." The young man near the door burped and spoke with a loud tongue. As he walked towards the outside of the box, his right hand My legs are lame. I don’t know if I drank too much or if there is something wrong with my legs and feet.
"Fang Hongyun, you are such a softie! This won't work!" Xu Jin laughed.
thump!
As soon as Xu Jin finished speaking, Fang Hongyun tripped over the threshold and fell directly on the corridor. When several dancers came forward to help him up, they found that he had fallen asleep.
"Hurry and carry him into the side room, leave someone to take care of him, and don't wet your pants!" Meng Zhi waved his hand contemptuously, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
"I'm going to go for convenience too. No one is allowed to leave. Wait until I come back and continue drinking!"
Zhang Tianwen put down his wine glass. Although he drank a lot, the blood of a warrior in the blood training realm was much stronger than that in the bone refining realm, so he was only a little drunk at the moment and was only half drunk.
"Let's get together." Meng Zhi stood up. He was not interested in drinking. He just wanted to find a reason to leave the box so that he could go find his girlfriend Hongying later.
"Senior Brother Meng, don't even think about running away!" Zhang Tianwen grabbed Meng Zhi's sleeve.
"Brother Zhang, Brother Meng, don't you two fall into the latrine together."
"That's right!"
Others followed suit.
"I'll deal with you when I get back!" Zhang Tianwen said harshly and pulled Meng Zhi downstairs.
The two of them walked to the back door of Zuiyue Tower and got into the deserted narrow alley.
"Move outside, you're too close and I won't be able to pee." Zhang Tianwen walked to the middle of the alley, taking off his pants and asking Meng Zhi, who was standing next to him, to stay away.
"Okay, okay, okay." Meng Zhi took off his pants that were halfway off. As soon as he lifted his feet, he felt dust falling from above. He subconsciously raised his head and looked up -
A masked man in black is spreading his arms and legs, with his body in a 'big' shape, leaning on the walls on both sides of the alley.
At this time, the masked man in black loosened his arms and legs, and fell down in the air. With his palms carrying a strong wind, he struck Zhang Tianwen's head with the force of a mountain.
"Zhang Tianwen! Be careful!" Meng Zhi's body shook violently, and his drunken mind suddenly cleared up. He shouted a warning and retreated sharply.
Zhang Tianwen looked up, and in shock, he punched out with all his strength.
As soon as the fists and palms come into contact, the winner will be determined.
There was only a "click" sound, and the bones of Zhang Tianwen's right arm were broken. The forearm bone was hit by a huge force and pierced the elbow joint. The whole person fell to his knees directly to the ground, letting out a shocking scream.
"ah--"
There was a heartbreaking sound of bones breaking, and Zhang Tianwen's screams suddenly stopped. The head on his neck had disappeared, and was forcefully slapped into the chest by the overbearing palm force.
thump!
Zhang Tianwen's body fell to the ground, too dead to be dead.
"Who?!" Meng Zhi felt his scalp numb, as if a basin of cold water was poured from head to toe in the winter.
He didn't even have the courage to fight back, so he ran towards the outside of the alley, "Killing! Killing!"
Da da da!
Han Zhao quickly caught up with Meng Zhi, who was about to run out of the alley, and raised both palms.
"Ah!" Meng Zhi felt the strong wind coming from behind him and knew that he would die if he didn't run out of the alley. He roared angrily, drew out the half-short spear from his waist, and turned around to block.
Han Zhao clapped his right palm, swung away the short spear aimed at his face, and pushed out with his left palm.
At the critical moment of life and death, Meng Zhi tried his best, holding the barrel of the gun horizontally in front of him, and protecting his heart with his left arm.
Bang! ! !
Heart-piercing pain came from his arms and chest. Meng Zhi's arm was broken, his sternum was sunken, and he flew backwards out of the alley.
"puff!!"
He fell heavily on the street and vomited out a large mouthful of blood. He tilted his head and died.
Bang! Half of the short gun rolled down beside him, and the gun body made of fine steel was actually a little bent.
Listening to the commotion on the street and the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps, Han Zhao jumped up to the top of the wall and disappeared into the night.
