Tian Shang and the others fought for a full two hours before stopping. Xu Mang's face was covered in tears. He realized that every time he tricked Xie Tian, he'd be tricked back by Xie Tian's gratefulness.
"This brat is too freaking weird!"
At this time, a shout of joy came from the other side of the island. The four were startled and immediately released their consciousness. Not long after, their bodies shook.
"He … he broke through again?"
"Of course. The aura he's giving off now is equivalent to the sixth level of the Dharmic Force realm.
"This Xie Tian is truly our little darling, haha …"
… …
The three looked at Xu Mang with meaningful smiles. They now understood why Xu Mang wanted them to keep their mouths shut about the medicine. It was probably because he was afraid of being hunted down by Xie Tian in a few years.
Xu Mang frowned. "It's a pity that he's a body cultivator. This thing is useless. With his talent, he should've broken through to the Dharmic Force realm long ago. Why …"
When the four of them called Xie Tian back and questioned him, their expressions changed.
"You want to use the Wanxiang Diagram to ascend to the soul?"
Xie Tian nodded. "Sirs, I've been hunting for contribution points just for the Wanxiang Diagram."
Tian Shang had the most understanding of the Wanxiang Diagram and advised, "The Wanxiang Diagram is the best technique for ascending to the soul, but it has its pros and cons. If your spirit isn't strong enough, you'll suffer dementia at best, or even be destroyed at worst. Even if your spirit is strong, I advise you to give up."
"No matter how difficult it is, I won't give up." Xie Tian's resolve was firm.
"Then work hard!"
Xu Mang lured another large wave of Yin Soul Beasts. Xie Tian had combined the techniques of a body refiner with the Soul Killing Nine Slashes, and even used a hidden weapon technique to control the nine Soul Sabers in a frenzy. The four of them were overjoyed and began to take Xie Tian seriously.
"His cultivation may be low, but his battle prowess puts him at the top of the younger generation in Tianqi City."
Tianqi City was the capital of the Jin Dynasty. There were countless aristocratic families, and more than ninety percent of the young geniuses in the Nine Provinces.
"As long as he succeeds in ascending to the Dharmic Force realm, he'll surely be able to enter the Ninth Battalion. After a few years of training, he might even make it to the Eighth Battalion."
"Are you dumb? If he enters the Ninth Battalion, we won't get any contribution points."
… …
The three of them looked at Xu Mang oddly, because they knew that Xu Mang had said this.
Xu Mang didn't feel ashamed. Instead, he felt proud. "First, think of a way to increase the little darling's strength. Second, think of a way to prevent him from entering the ninth battalion, hahahaha …"
At the end of his speech, Xu Mang laughed maniacally with drool dripping from his mouth. His shameless coquettishness could shake the heavens and make ghosts and gods weep.
"Old Mang," Xu Mang said, "Xu Old Xu Mang is good.
"Xu Xu, we Mang Long ago, I said," We Can.
"….
After coming to a shameless agreement, the three of them racked their brains to think of a way to increase Xie Tian's combat strength. Xu Mang also chose to walk the path of trapping Xie Tian.
But the four never imagined that their shameless agreement would create such a monster for the matriculation camp!
With the Soulkilling Nine Slashes, Xie Tian's killing efficiency increased tenfold. Even Xu Mang had to focus on luring monsters to keep up with Xie Tian's speed.
On this day, Xie Tian killed for a whole sixteen hours. Only when the Second Battalion began to fight did the exhausted Xu Mang hurriedly send a batch of Yin Soul Beasts over and get some rest.
But when he saw Xie Tian looking at him expectantly, Xu Mang's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad premonition.
"Brother Xu, I think I can kill for another four hours."
… …
In the end, Xie Tian did not continue. Xu Mang took out another storage pouch.
"Five hundred thousand contribution points. Kid, remember this brother's words!" Xu Mang said solemnly.
Xie Tian's expression turned serious and he listened attentively.
"Everything this brother does is for your own good!"
Seeing Xie Tian leave, Xu Mang teared up and muttered, "I'm digging a hole for myself again. The stronger this guy is, the worse I'll be when I find out the truth."
Returning to the barracks, Xie Tian didn't even have time to open his storage pouch before Boss Jia and the other two appeared with ugly expressions.
Boss Jia said with a gloomy face, "Wang Tao's injuries are almost healed. These few days, there are rumors in the Second Camp that Ji Rushan didn't take Pang Shen away because of you. There are even people who said that this matter was confirmed by the commander of the Ninth Camp."
"Anything else?" Xie Tian asked calmly.
"Wang Tao and his gang are getting arrogant again," the smooth Zhen Xiao 'er had been doing well in the Second Battalion and heard the news, "It's said that his brother Wang Hai is very likely to be promoted to the Eighth Battalion. These days, many people have sought refuge in the Tao Battalion, the Lang Battalion …"
"Don't worry about the Wave Battalion!"
The four of them looked over and saw a haggard Xue Yan walk into the barracks. "Xie Tian, Wang Tao's revenge is coming. You'll be the first to bear the brunt. I see that he's full of confidence this time, as if he's certain of victory."
She said not to worry, but just from Xue Yan's expression, it was obvious that the Wave Battalion wasn't having a good time.
Xie Tian thought about it and asked, "Is there anything unusual in the Terror Second Battalion?"
"A few days ago, Wu Jing and Du Hai went to see Wang Tao …"
Xue Yan was silent for a while and added, "Wang Tao asked them to go and said that if they didn't come, they'd have to bear the consequences. The two of them didn't seem to have changed after they came out, but the Wave Battalion became even more arrogant."
"I got it. Be more careful these days," Xie Tian said to Xue Yan.
Xue Yan smiled bitterly and nodded.
She had hoped that Xie Tian would be able to suppress Wang Tao's arrogance with thunderous methods, such as Ji Rushan coming again. It seemed that the rumors outside were true. Xie Tian really had nothing to do with Ji Rushan!
At this moment, she regretted her recklessness that day. But what was done could not be undone. She knew that even if she immediately drew a line with Xie Tian, Wang Tao would still not let her off!
Xue Yan left sadly. Xiao Ma hesitated for a moment and chased after her. Not long after, she returned dejectedly.
"Don't go out to battle these days. Just cultivate in the barracks!" Xie Tian pondered for a moment and smiled. "As long as nothing happens to you, no matter how powerful Wang Tao is, I'm not afraid!"
Boss Jia said worriedly, "Xie Tian, I've asked around. That Wang Tao's cultivation is already at the Dharmic Power Realm Great Perfection. His battle strength is even higher than Xue Yan's. You …"
These words made Xie Tian's expression turn grave. Suddenly, he realized that the reason why Wang Tao frequently conspired in order to obtain his method to resist the evil aura was mostly because he looked down on him!
After all, in Wang Tao's eyes, he was just a piece of trash at the Connate realm. He wasn't worth Wang Tao's attention!
"Haha …" Xie Tian sneered inwardly. He comforted the three of them. "Even if I'm at the Connate realm, I might not lose to him. You just need to protect yourselves and focus on your cultivation!"
Boss Jia and the other two felt sad. There was an entire realm difference between them. Furthermore, Wang Tao was at the Dharmic Power Realm in the Middle Ground. The gap was so great that it made them feel despair.
Xie Tian didn't say anything more. He took out the Soul Killing Nine Slashes and explained the main points of cultivation before guiding them.
However, their souls were too weak. It would take several days for them to form the first Soul Blade. Seeing this, Xie Tian opened the interspatial pouch Xu Mang had given him.
"The Minor Heavenly Cycle Soul Slaying Formation uses the soul as the foundation to form the heavenly cycle. The nine slashes are like stars revolving around each other, multiplying their attack power …"
Xie Tian was a little excited. It was obvious that this Minor Heavenly Cycle Soul Slaying Formation could greatly increase his attack power!
Four hours later, a hint of joy flashed in Xie Tian's eyes. He had already comprehended the Minor Heavenly Cycle Soul Slaying Formation. As long as he cultivated diligently, it wouldn't take long for him to reach greater mastery!
If Tian Shang knew that Xie Tian, who had just started learning about formations, had already reached lesser mastery in just two hours, who knew what he would think?
There were two more books on body tempering in the interspatial pouch, but Xie Tian didn't continue cultivating them.
