Chapter 132: Chapter 120 Wan Ling Catalog (Seeking Subscriptions)

September 1st.

"Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Blue Star University, I welcome your arrival..."

On the podium, Nie Ying was delivering a passionate speech.

Uh... For everyone’s convenience, this speech was being held in the virtual network community of Blue Star University.

After all, everyone is a professional and quite busy.

Fang Xing pretended to listen intently while idly flipping through his emails, when suddenly he paused.

"Master, you have a new email."

Xiao Lan stood on his shoulder and whispered in his ear.

"Okay."

Fang Xing clicked directly: "Finally, has the assigned mentor been announced?"

[Dear Student Fang Xing, your mentor is ’Pan Xiong,’ and your counselor is ’Wei Shentong,’ contact information: ...]

He was fine with the beginning but couldn’t help but laugh a little at the end.

"Wei Shentong, counselor?"

"Forget it, some university students never meet their counselors throughout their entire college life..."

"As long as the mentor is reliable, that’s fine."

With that thought, he immediately sent a message to ’Pan Xiong.’

The reply came within minutes.

"Hello, Fang Xing, as your mentor, I need to fully assess your abilities... It’s best we meet offline for the first time, you can come to the public training room, Room Q34, the password is XXX..."

Pan Xiong’s reply was serious, but Fang Xing knew the other party must be distracted.

Otherwise, why would he reply immediately?

Shouldn’t he be listening to the school leadership’s speech?

"Alright."

He was fine with that.

’This virtual space is good, but it can hardly bear the data of high-ranking experts... Hopefully, it can be optimized later.’

While Fang Xing was daydreaming, he suddenly heard a burst of enthusiastic applause nearby.

Although he didn’t know at what point the speech was, it must mean it had ended, so following the applause was the right thing to do.

...

Ssssh!

A large amount of icy mist appeared as Fang Xing stepped out of the holographic virtual cabin, glancing at his attribute panel:

[Name: Fang Xing]

[Age: 19]

[Profession: Martial Artist]

[Fourth Realm: Courage (200/200)]

[Military Boxing Twelve Styles: 89/400 (Master)]

[Great Dragon Stance: 388/400 (Master)]

[Hidden Tiger Stance: 289/400 (Master)]

[Ghost God Saber: 23/400 (Master)]

[Extreme Emotion Sword: 31/400 (Master)]

[Dragon Elephant Skill: 215/400 (Master)]

[Great Vajra Wisdom Divine Power: 44/100 (Skilled)]

[Great Sun Tathagata Mantra: 13/200 (Master)]

[Heavenly Mother’s Mighty Golden Lotus Twin Guardians Manual: 55/100 (Skilled)]

[Gate of All Heavens (Charging)]

...

"Apart from the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra, which I’ve intentionally been suppressing, the other skills have actually increased quite a bit, not a bad way to spend a summer... even though I played some games occasionally."

As Fang Xing observed, he flew low on his newly purchased flying skateboard, arriving at the public training room.

Not having a skateboard really wasn’t an option, especially since Blue Star University is so vast, even using his movement techniques on the way was troublesome.

From a bird’s-eye view, the public training room was vast, resembling a meticulously constructed beehive, divided into different structures.

From the most basic Martial Arts training rooms to specialized shooting ranges, weapon testing ranges, medicine laboratories, Mecha maintenance rooms, space simulation cabins... It truly had everything.

Room Q34.

After entering the password, Fang Xing walked in, immediately feeling a surge of gravity hit him.

"The gravity in this room is at least three times that of the outside world!"

His expression unchanged, he looked around.

The floor was made of a reddish-brown material that emitted a herbal fragrance, firm yet elastic.

The area was spacious, at least three hundred square meters.

It was empty at the moment, except for a few people standing in the middle.

Fang Xing glanced at them and surprisingly recognized two!

"Su Longyan!" he called out with a smile to a timid female student.

"Student Fang..."

Su Longyan seemed to fear Fang Xing, undoubtedly harboring some psychological trauma.

This female classmate was actually not weak; it was just her misfortune to encounter Fang Xing.

However, seeing her performance in the videos of the revival matches, where she fought her way out step by step, Fang Xing found her resilience praiseworthy.

Apart from her, there was a young man holding a gun, with a resolute face, probably known as Ouyang Qiang.

This student excelled in using a long spear and had astonishing persistence. The scene where he was blasted off the stage but remained standing, unconscious, left a slight impression on Fang Xing.

The remaining student, with rosy lips and white teeth and a youthful appearance, was unknown to Fang Xing.

"Very good, you have all arrived."

The youthful-looking boy cracked a smile, "Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Pan Xiong, I am 87 years old, and I will be your Martial Arts mentor!"

"..."

Fang Xing was a bit skeptical it was a prank, but after sensing the other’s strength, he chose to keep silent.

Martial Artists naturally possessed notable spiritual power, and cultivating the "Great Sun Tathagata Mantra" had further enhanced his implicit spiritual sense.

’This teacher... looks like a young boy, yet his name is Pan Xiong, but to be so youthful at 86?’

’It seems that Martial Arts cultivation to a profound realm can rejuvenate one just as well as the Immortal Path. Or perhaps... has he undergone genetic surgery?’

"What? Don’t believe me?"

Pan Xiong chuckled, and a flash of golden light suddenly enveloped the surroundings, resembling a golden sun and bringing a terrifying pressure!

"Ah!"

Su Longyan and Ouyang Qiang exclaimed, stepping back, and then seeing Fang Xing, who didn’t retreat at all, they showed a complex expression.

Pan Xiong, seeing that Fang Xing hadn’t stepped back, showed a satisfied look but also covered himself in a layer of golden armor, making him resemble an exorcising Golden Vajra, solemn and majestic.

"Martial Arts Golden Body! Vajra Realm!"

Fang Xing stepped back half a step, his face showing a shocked expression, "I’ve seen Teacher!"

"Mm, a teachable child indeed, worthy of being this year’s number one in Martial Arts."

Pan Xiong nodded, "Yin Hongding was even worried I might compete with him for the Gu Jiantong, haha... Relying on top-level abilities, even those with exceptional talent will struggle when they face even more potent geniuses after getting used to smooth sailing. I like those of you who have climbed out from the mud, you are truly tough!"

"Teacher!"

At that moment, Su Longyan and Ouyang Qiang also stepped forward, saluting together.

"Mm, I will conduct two classes per week with you. Think about what you need to ask..." Pan Xiong was a straightforward Martial Artist, "As for recommendations for university, participate more in the student council tasks, earn more credits, review the Wan Ling Catalog more often, grab the good stuff from the treasure vault, that’s it... Fang Xing, you ask first."

"Teacher, my Mud Pill Palace is now perfect, and the Great Dragon Stance is just a short time away from breaking through to the Fifth Stage, should I directly assault the Outer Realm?"

Fang Xing asked his question, unaware of the shocked expressions of his classmates behind him.

Is this the pace for a first-year to break through the Fifth Realm of Martial Arts?

’Could it be... this is the real genius?’

Su Longyan hung her head low, only to raise it stubbornly soon after.

"Mm... your ’Divine’ has indeed reached perfection, only lacking the achievement of a domain. Breaking into the Fifth Realm of Martial Arts would be effortless, but I see you are following the path of the Dragon Tiger Golden Core. Perhaps wait a bit longer, cultivate the Hidden Tiger Stance to the Fifth Stage first... Dragon and tiger together, start contemplating from before reaching the Outer Realm..."

Pan Xiong advised further, "Also... I have seen your previous combat videos, and I suggest you learn another movement technique."

"Yes, I want to learn ’Stepping on Air’, but it seems that this step technique can only be studied after reaching the Outer Realm..."

Fang Xing had seen Xia Long walk on air and was quite envious, but Xia Long’s step technique required domain power, which was truly enviable.

Other movement techniques were too inferior for him, so he simply waited until school started to see what the instructors recommended.

"Mm, go to the school library, look up a step technique—’Dancing Sky Steps’; this technique originates from ’Stepping on Air’ but is even more profound. It has only been completed as an S-level Martial Arts in the past two years."

Pan Xiong advised, "Once you master Dancing Sky Steps, you can tread the air without needing the realm of the Outer Realm..."

"Yes!"

Fang Xing decided he would check it out once he went back; he needed to strengthen his movement techniques.

"Su Longyan, your Tai Chi Realm is good... but too indulged in the way of overcoming strength with softness. From today, you will learn the Mad Eighteen Strikes and Mad Demon Stick Technique... exercise the power of relentless force every day."

"Ouyang Qiang, you have plenty of perseverance, but insufficient fundamentals... raise your realm first..."

Pan Xiong started advising the other two students.

Meanwhile, Fang Xing took the opportunity to download ’Dancing Sky Steps,’ skimmed through it, and felt elated.

"Dancing Sky Steps begins with unleashing powerful force to tread on air... imagining the air as solid, using it as a stepping point to exert force... To achieve this, one requires a strong physique and remarkable explosive power... truly suitable for me!"

Previously, in the Great Library, among the vast ocean of Martial Arts, Fang Xing had struggled to find the few tens of thousands of movement techniques.

Pan Xiong could precisely point out the right direction at once, making Fang Xing appreciate his experienced and discerning eye.

"Teacher, may I ask for guidance on the ’Spirit of Dancing Sky’?"

Fang Xiong took the chance to ask another question.

Just by experiencing it once, he could use it as a standard to continually practice and master it.

Once mastered, keeping the proficiency in the attribute panel, what was there to fear?

"The Spirit of Dancing Sky?"

Pan Xiong’s lips curved into a smile, "I do not know it... after all, that technique doesn’t match my nature."

"Then... should I try it in the virtual space?"

Fang Xing tentatively asked.

Although the virtual space could only simulate experts up to the level of the Outer Realm, it should have a rich reserve of realms.

"Hehe, they can only demonstrate a bit in there, how could it be intuitive?"

Pan Xiong’s lips hinted at a mysterious smile, "Just right... this time I’ll show you the real essence of Blue Star University—’Wan Ling Catalog’!"

"Wan Ling Catalog, what exactly is that?"

Su Longyan spoke up to inquire.

"The Wan Ling Catalog is an array of diagrams!"

Although Pan Xiong seemed to have answered nothing, tantalizing their curiosity, he chuckled, "It’s a mysterious pattern left by the first principal, constantly developed and enhanced by generations of powerhouses in our school... It has nearly integrated thousands of Martial Arts from around the world. As long as you study it, your realms, domains will all rapidly improve..."
