Fang Xing was well aware that by refusing the arranged internship, he must have offended Wei Shentong.

Therefore, he immediately sought out his own teacher.

Inside the training room.

After hearing his story, the cherubic-looking Pan Xiong revealed a sneer on his face, "Wei Shentong is still the same old... Despite once being the top graduate of Blue Star University, he’s very keen on power and influence... Even if he has suffered losses before, he remains the same."

’The so-called "suffered losses," could that be referring to the last Hundred Stars Joint Examination?’

Fang Xing suddenly felt that the waters from the last time were too deep and unfathomable.

Thinking carefully, he knew that although Chuying Star and the other ninety-nine planets were not much in the Blue Star Federation,

Young Qilin Star, along with Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix, were the Federation’s top three education planets, with countless progeny of the powerful and influential.

Having issues during an assessment, it was no small feat that Wei Shentong was able to retreat unharmed.

Perhaps it was because of this that his resources for becoming a Martial Saint were continuously blocked, hindering his promotion.

Then this person, in order to quickly gain the favor of factions, planned to carry out some tangible actions within Blue Star University, to increase the influence of his own faction...

"So, Teacher, what should I do? Which faction is behind Wei Shentong?"

Fang Xing posed his question.

"You don’t need to do anything... You are a student at Blue Star University, and everything should be done according to the rules."

Pan Xiong said, "Even if Wei Shentong has a limited influence on your senior year internship... the most you could be thrown into is the Secret Realm Battlefield. We, as Martial Artists, should head to the battlefield."

"As for the faction issue? The Federation is too large and there are too many factions... Early understanding of such matters is not conducive to your development. Do you really think Wei Shentong can use the power of a faction to suppress you? You’re overestimating yourself, you’re not worthy yet!"

"Moreover, suppressing the Federation’s genius would tarnish one’s reputation, it’s akin to handing a knife to political enemies... Everything must be done according to the rules, understand?"

"I think I roughly understand; it’s still about strengthening myself."

Fang Xing nodded.

"Correct... The Secret Realm Battlefield needs combat-oriented geniuses the most, those who can fight beyond their level! As long as you are exceptionally gifted, the Secret Realm Battlefield is not particularly dangerous, and you can gain a large number of credits and merits..."

Pan Xiong smiled, "You’ve been doing quite well, never bogged down by bottlenecks, always progressing... I think you can definitely ascend to the Martial Arts Golden Core before graduating from university, and then apply for graduate studies."

Studying for a graduate degree would postpone his military service!

Fang Xing pondered, realizing that Pan Xiong was hinting that Wei Shentong’s faction might have a certain influence in the military!

After all, Wei Shentong was also from the military, and this was no minor matter compared to the senior year internship.

During the senior year internship, one’s status is still that of a student, not a soldier, protected by Blue Star University; one can return if they wish, which is relatively safe.

But if one were to serve in the military, their identity would shift to that of a true soldier, and if the superior orders one to a certain death, one must go!

Such is the strict discipline of military law!

In this situation, it would be easy to manipulate things and target someone.

’It seems... that indeed I need to break through to the Martial Arts Golden Core before graduating. Otherwise, facing an inescapable mission spells out too great a loss, unless one betrays the Federation.’

’Perhaps... after studying for a graduate degree, one could continue on to a doctoral or postdoctoral position...’

’Do I aim to become a Martial Saint by staying in school all the way?’

A thought struck Fang Xing: ’That doesn’t seem so bad... Becoming a saint through studies is also a wonderful story.’

Unaware of the numerous thoughts that had just passed through his student’s mind, Pan Xiong cracked a grin: "Thinking too much about all this is pointless for us Martial Artists; what you need to do now is to train! Train hard! I haven’t stretched my Sinews and Bones for a while, so I’ll spar with you today, don’t worry, I’ll only defend, not attack!"

He twisted his neck, his bones emitting a crisp sound, as he moved to the center of the area.

"Teacher, please forgive my offense."

Fang Xing also wanted to know the gap between himself and a Martial Artist at the Vajra Realm, so he bowed deeply in respect.

Upon rising, there was an instantaneous chorus of Dragon Roar and Tiger Roar around him, and it seemed as if a giant elephant was roaring too.

Snap!

He raised his right hand and a hand-chop shot forth.

The very void swirled with wind and clouds as if wailing spirits haunted it!

A Grandmaster Level Ghost God Saber!

After all, it was already the latter half of his third year, and he had refined the Master Level Ghost God Saber, Extreme Emotion Sword, and even the Military Boxing Twelve Styles to perfection, then visited the Wan Ling Catalog for enlightenment and successfully attained Grandmaster status.

Snap!

The astonishing saber light fell on Pan Xiong and didn’t even leave a white mark!

Yet, a look of satisfaction spread across Pan Xiong’s face, "Forcing me to use the Third Revolutions Golden Body... your strength is definitely more than just ninth in the combat rankings."

Martial Arts Golden Body!

Using the Martial Arts Golden Core to absorb Immortal Material, refining oneself to achieve an unimaginable Physique!

Fang Xing felt that even if he exerted all his strength, he might still find it difficult to break through Pan Xiong’s defense.

’This Third Revolutions Golden Body... feels like even Low Grade Magic Treasures would struggle to penetrate it.’

’If Pan Xiong went to the Cultivation World, maybe he could run rampant in Zheng Country...’

As this thought crossed his mind, his hand-chop transformed into a sword finger.

The Sword Qi was cold and sharp as mercury spilling to the ground, searching for weak points in Pan Xiong’s Qi.

Hiss, hiss!

Strands of Sword Qi pierced into Pan Xiong’s Golden Body, directly causing it to collapse!

Not only did it collapse, but it also rebounded back!

Although Pan Xiong had said he would only defend and not attack, the rebounding strike didn’t count!

"Well done."

Fang Xing’s hands moved again, as blade light and sword shadows surrounded him.

The blade was the sword, the sword was the blade, and it could even morph into fists, palms, legs...

Paired with his movement technique, it truly became a mixed element unity.

"Excellent!"

Pan Xiong looked at his student, his face unable to hide his admiration, "Hand blade, finger sword, as well as fists, palms, legs, and movement technique... You have actually cultivated the Ghost God Saber, Extreme Emotion Sword, and military boxing to the pinnacle of perfection, coordinating them with each other to form an entirely new supreme skill. It might already be at the S-level. You even want to integrate your movement technique... Unfortunately, your Dancing Sky Steps have not yet reached the peak, making them unable to completely harmonize."

This was not a creation of a new martial art but Fang Xing’s integration of the three martial arts of Ghost God Saber to the Grandmaster Realm, taking the best and patching up the shortcomings, to tailor the most suitable martial arts for himself, just like the integration of Great Dragon Stance and Hidden Tiger Stance into Dragon Tiger Stance!

It was a process of integrating his own martial arts knowledge.

Originally, he wanted to merge the Dancing Sky Steps too, but this S-level movement technique was not yet at Grandmaster level, making it difficult to freely modify and adapt, so Pan Xiong noticed some disharmony.

"Good skill, what is the name of this martial art?"

Pan Xiong laughed heartily. A spot of golden light twinkled in his dantian, gradually suffusing his entire body, transforming him into a Golden Arhat, standing unshakably like Mount Tai amidst Fang Xing’s attack, which carried the force of wind and thunder.

"Star Martial Three Extremes!"

Fang Xing glanced at the attribute bar:

[Star Martial Three Extremes: 8/800 (Grandmaster)]

...

[Dancing Sky Steps: 1/400 (Master)]

All these were the results of his diligent training over the past year.

But at this moment, in front of Pan Xiong, it was still not enough.

"So..."

Fang Xing, becoming spirited, finally let out a long howl, his body as if clad in Golden Silk Armor.

In his eyes flared two resplendent golden stars!

Great Vajra Wisdom Divine Power—eightfold burst!

Star Martial Three Extremes!

Numerous martial arts powers were integrated into one, converging on the three fingers of Fang Xing’s right hand, propelled by the Great Vajra Wisdom Divine Power to drive the killing move within Star Martial Three Extremes!

It was his strongest strike to date!

Although he needed to conceal his true strength, after three years of acquaintance and recent discussion, Fang Xing felt that Pan Xiong was still trustworthy.

Moreover, his true foundation wouldn’t be known to anyone.

Faced with this move, Pan Xiong showed a serious expression for the first time.

He felt that his Third Revolutions Golden Body might actually be... injured under this attack?

"Is it the Great Vajra Wisdom Divine Power?!"

"Not just that, if the body and fingers can withstand such an eruption, Dragon Elephant Skill has truly reached a ghostly and unpredictable realm. This young man..."

In the blink of an eye, as thoughts flashed through Pan Xiong’s mind, he then stretched out his palm lightly.

Bang!

Fang Xing’s three fingers, as if an indestructible spear, landed on Pan Xiong’s golden palm, making a sound like metal clashing with metal.

And then...

He felt the full force of his unleashed power and True Qi disappear into oblivion like a clay ox entering the sea!

No!

It was shattered by an even more formidable force!

Had Pan Xiong not shown restraint, this rebound force could have penetrated the defenses of the Grandmaster Level Dragon Elephant Skill and caused injury!

"I lost..."

Fang Xing retreated as if he was a fleeting shadow, looking at Pan Xiong who stood with hands behind him, "Teacher... Just now you..."

"Martial Arts Golden Core is the condensation of our essence, energy, and spirit. In ancient times, it was also called ’Embrace Pill,’ which can unify all the blood, power, and True Qi of a martial artist into ’Golden Core Power’!"

Pan Xiong spoke unhurriedly, "There’s a world of difference in actual combat between each major realm of martial arts... Not to mention, after the Martial Arts Golden Core, the Domain Power will surge, transforming into a true ’Golden Core Domain’! Therefore, a Martial Arts Golden Core fighting in the Outer Realm is like an adult fighting a child. There can be no defeat... unless one can cultivate those heaven-defying skills and Divine Powers in the Outer Realm. But such heaven-defying existences haven’t appeared for a long time."

"I have learned my lesson."

Fang Xing bowed respectfully, then suddenly received a message: "There’s an issue in the Virtual Space... I need to go take care of it."

"Mm, go ahead."

Pan Xiong watched Fang Xing leave, and only then did he slowly extend the palm that had been behind his back.

In his palm, there was actually a white mark!

At the center of the white mark still lingered a trace of crimson...

"Lucky he didn’t notice, otherwise, to be discovered by a student breaking through my defenses... would my old bear’s face remain intact?"

Pan Xiong sighed, "No wonder Wei Shentong was so shameless in his actions; the talent is truly astonishing... Should I recommend him to the higher-ups?"

While he was contemplating, two students walked in: "Teacher..."

Pan Xiong glanced over; it was Su Longyan and Ouyang Qiang.

Strictly speaking, these two had good talent and were also progressing quickly.

But compared to Fang Xing, it was like comparing goods to throw away!

"Why haven’t you two broken through to the Outer Realm yet?"

Pan Xiong immediately began to reprimand: "I even have to split up my lessons to teach you three separately... You’re already juniors. In another year, you’ll go to intern. Without the strength of the Outer Realm, you’re simply embarrassing me..."

Su Longyan and Ouyang Qiang exchanged glances, then dejectedly hung their heads...
