Xie Feng's advice filled Meng Chao's heart with warmth.
Xie Feng might seem arrogant, but he was a person worthy of guidance and a good friend.
Meng Chao was not someone who liked to put on airs.
There was no meaning in hiding his strength and pretending to be weak in front of his good friend!
"Xie Feng, thank you for the reminder, but you don't have to worry about me."
Meng Chao was honest and told the truth. "Honestly, Project 1024 and I are progressing really smoothly. While you strengthen a few of your main meridians every day, I can strengthen my 1,024 branch meridians by several times. Even though it can't be seen on the surface, in truth, compared to a month ago, my strength has gone through a complete transformation, and I've improved by leaps and bounds.
"I know about Duan Lian's newest progress as well. It's just that he absorbed a lot of liger-type monsters' souls and can create seventeen spirit energy magnetic fields. He also has a powerful killing move called Lion Frenzy. It might seem terrifying and domineering, but it's full of openings.
"With a conservative estimate, I can fight against three to five people like Duan Lian in the arena. If I fight in a fight with complicated terrain, I can fight against ten. Of course, that's when I don't have guns. If I had guns, then …"
Meng Chao counted with his fingers and calculated carefully.
"Then I won't be coming," he said seriously.
"…"
Xie Feng sucked in a deep breath. "Meng Chao, wake up. Stop being so stubborn. In truth, Ms. Li Yingzi has always thought highly of you. You still have a chance to change tutors!"
"What? I can change tutors now?"
Meng Chao's eyes lit up, and he was delighted. "Then hurry up and change to Ms. Gu. We'll have a bright future if we follow Big Brother Bo!"
"You —"
Xie Feng felt like he was about to cough up blood. He covered his heart and said, "I treat you as a friend, but you're making fun of me? Oh well, let me attack and wake you up. Instead of letting Duan Lian and the others benefit from your ten thousand monster coins, why don't you give them to me?! "
"Hmm, sure."
Meng Chao thought about it and agreed to it. "As long as I beat you up so badly that even your parents can't recognize you, will you admit that the Beast Soul Style has a flaw and that even the beast soul fusion technique can't solve the problem of accumulating power, stiffening up, and cooling down? Only the Ultimate Style created by Project 1024 represents the future development of martial arts and is the correct path?"
When Xie Feng saw Meng Chao's serious expression and how he moved his limbs, he felt discouraged.
"Forget it. I don't have time to be crazy with you today. I still have to go for training later. In a few days, the freshmen tournament between the martial arts course and monster controller course will be held. That's the most important competition among the freshmen. Once I'm done with my work, we'll talk about you."
"The tournament between new students?" Meng Chao asked curiously. "Why didn't I know about it?"
"You don't know about it." You don't know. Chao Feng Gu Chao, but he doesn's Xue Chao Feng's Is. s. and Chao is, and Xie Xie Feng is, be Be.
"The rules of the freshmen tournament are that the martial arts course and monster controller course will each choose fifty freshmen to fight in a chain tournament. The ace lecturers will recommend the participants on their own. You're with Gu Jianbo, but he doesn't have the right to recommend them, so you won't be able to participate.
"There's no need to talk about me, Sun Ya, and Jiang Rui. Duan Lian is also participating. Many of the students who were not as good as you during the admission test have the chance to show up after they follow a rather powerful lecturer. This is the main event of the semester, so all the participants have to do their best. Otherwise, why do you think Duan Lian and the others haven't come to cause trouble for you after the protection period for the freshmen is over?"
"I see." Meng Chao nodded.
"Now, you know the benefits of following an ace lecturer, right?" Xie Feng said. "Also, the Red Dragon Army and the Supernatural Tower have been winning multiple battles at the edge of the fog. I heard that they managed to advance dozens of kilometers to the north of the city and discovered a large mixed mine. It's filled with rare metals and high-purity crystals. The amount is astonishing, and it holds great tactical value.
"To explore and defend this tactical area, the entire city has been mobilized. Many of the upperclassmen have already rushed to the frontlines. Even the freshmen have the chance to fight in the depths of the fog.
"Ever since the Ten Year Expedition ended, it has been many years since Dragon City launched such a large-scale pitched battle. This is a rare chance. The effect of one real battle is better than training in the university for half a year.
"But the fighting strength of the freshmen is rather weak. Not everyone has the chance to go to the frontlines. Only if you get good results in the tournament between courses can you represent Agricultural University and join the pitched battle. You definitely won't stand a chance."
"That happened?!"
Meng Chao's pupils shrank swiftly.
He did not remember the details of the Monster War.
But he knew that after he failed his national college examination in his previous life, Dragon City suffered a series of devastating defeats.
In other words, no matter how many kilometers the Red Dragon Army pushed the frontlines forward or how many mines with great tactical value they discovered, there was a high chance that the end of the pitched battle would not be good.
"No, I have to join the battle!" Meng Chao blurted out.
"Don't you think that it's too late for you to realize this now? You don't even have the right to join the tournament between courses, so what right do you have to go to the battlefield in the north?" Xie Feng said angrily.
But he noticed that Meng Chao was staring at him with a strange gaze.
"What's wrong?" Xie Feng's heart shuddered.
"It's nothing."
Meng Chao looked away and drew closer to him with a smile. "Xie Feng, you'll definitely be able to get at the top of the tournament between courses, right?"
"We haven't fought yet. Who knows?"
Xie Feng thought about it. "But based on what I understand, the monster controller course has run into a rare minor year. There aren't any outstanding talents among the freshmen, and I can't say that I'll be able to defend the arena until the end, but there's still hope for me to win against three to five people or even more."
"That's good. Don't worry, I'll definitely come and cheer for you at that time!"
Meng Chao patted his good friend's shoulder.
'When Xie Feng shines brightly in the tournament between freshmen, I'll beat him up. Then, I'll be able to show off the superiority of the Ultimate Style and prove my strength, right?
'By the way, there's also Duan Lian. Based on the standards of a normal university student, he's been training pretty well lately, so he might be able to show off his might in the tournament.
'Once I beat up Xie Feng, I might as well beat him up so badly that even his parents won't recognize him. It'll be double insurance.
This isn't being ruthless.
It's not that I'm not being loyal either.
Instead, I'm presenting facts, reasoning with them, and using unyielding truth to make the students understand the correct direction for the development of martial arts in the future. I'm giving them pointers so that they can contribute to society!
"Xie Feng, do your best. Try to defeat a few more monster controller course students so that everyone will cheer for you," Meng Chao said with an intense gaze.
Meng Chao's eyes burned intensely. "I'll also race against time and complete the final sprint!"
…
Five days later.
Project 1024. The 575th experiment of the Ultimate Style after it was restarted.
The current Ultimate Style lab had long since changed its equipment. It was no longer using second-hand medical cabins that had been modified into cultivation cabins.
Instead, it was a specially designed cultivation cabin that was three meters long on each side.
The walls were made of a high-strength transparent material that resembled glass. It could withstand nearly one hundred tons of force.
The advantage of the enlarged cultivation cabin was that even if the cultivator was completely immersed in the gene medicine, they could still move with a lot of force.
Not only would they have enough space to stand and exert force, they could also use their hands as sabers to execute One Hundred Saber Techniques, Thunder Rapier, and even fiercer killing moves.
Ever since the upgraded cultivation cabin was assembled, Meng Chao loved it so much that he could not bear to part with it. He had been training in isolation for three days and three nights.
But this time, the feeling was different.
"In the 575th experiment, we have added the venom of the Silver Chain Snake with a concentration of 35% on the basis of the 'No. 99 gene drug', fine-tuned the components of amphetamines and antisympathomimines, and tried to stimulate the central nerves with nikethamide and strychnine. The subjects have entered the training cabin. Their physiological parameters are all normal.
Gu Jianbo, Ma Hong, and the students from society looked at Meng Chao nervously.
During the last few experiments, Meng Chao's condition had become better. The electrical stimulation he could withstand had become stronger, and through his branch meridians, he could instantly absorb and release more spirit energy.
Everyone had a feeling that they were getting closer and closer to success.
Just as they expected, once the cultivation field was activated, Meng Chao felt incredibly different.
The pain and difficulty from his previous experiments were gone. He did not need to spend a lot of effort to direct the spirit energy in the gene medicine into his branch meridians.
The intersecting spirit apertures naturally produced a mysterious suction force that absorbed spirit energy in an endless stream.
His body was originally dark and unfathomable.
Suddenly, it was as if dark clouds had dispersed to reveal a sky full of brilliant stars. Thousands of spirit apertures shone brilliantly.
Silver threads that were as thin as hair grew among the "stars". They intersected with each other, entangled, and surrounded him to form a crystalline human figure made of pure energy.
'This is the formula! This is the key to cultivating the branch meridians!'
Meng Chao opened his eyes while he was in the light silver medicinal liquid, and delight shone in his eyes.
'Increase the stimulation!' He gestured at the area outside the cultivation cabin.
Gu Jianbo turned on the switch and increased the density of the medicine and the intensity of the electrical stimulation.
'No, it's not enough. Increase it more!'
Gu Jianbo increased it by another level.
'No, I can still increase it. I think that the nourishing and protective effects of this formula are very good. It can greatly resist the pain and side effects of the electrical stimulation, but it can also make my branch meridians expand, and my cells will awaken so that I can devour even more spirit energy!' Meng Chao was still not satisfied.
In the end, Gu Jianbo increased the intensity of the electrical stimulation to the point that it was above the warning line.
But Meng Chao looked like he was enjoying it. His mental strength index and physiological parameters were very stable.
"He clearly injected a lot of medicine, so why is the density of the medicinal liquid rapidly decreasing?"
"Look, the gene medicine is gradually becoming clearer. It's like purified water!"
"The energy contained in it has all been absorbed by Meng Chao!"
Ma Hong and the students from society cried out in surprise.
Before their voices faded away, Meng Chao moved.
Ripple Force, Dragon Snake Force, Reckless Bull Force.
One Hundred Saber Techniques, Thunder Rapier Sword.
There were also a few middle-grade techniques he had learned in university.
His entire body was immersed in thick medicinal liquid, and he had to withstand great pressure and resistance. It was much more difficult than cultivating in the air.
Yet he paid no attention to it, and he swept out with irresistible force like a hot knife through butter as he emanated an all-powerful aura.
Every time he punched or kicked, he stirred up undercurrents and stirred up waves. They crashed against the walls of the cultivation cabin and let out loud bangs.
Even though they knew that the sturdiness of the cultivation cabin was really high and that even if Gu Jianbo attacked it with the strength of a four-star superhuman, it would be difficult for him to destroy it, the people were still shocked by the impact waves that came out of Meng Chao's body.
Everyone was still shocked by the impact wave that came out of Meng Chao's body. They had the misconception that a ferocious beast had escaped its cage.
In just a short ten minutes, the originally light silver, thick medicinal liquid turned into a tank of clear water.
Meng Chao opened the drainage hole and emptied the remaining liquid. Then, he sat down cross-legged, and waves of heat surrounded him.
It was as if he was not in cold medicinal liquid just now, but in magma that could melt steel.
'The Ultimate Style … is complete?' Gu Jianbo stared at him.
There were stars shining in the depths of his eyes, just like Meng Chao's.
