"Then how many people are on the Bronze List?"
Lu Ming asked.
"Fifty-six people. Other than the Qilin Courtyard, there are a total of fifty-six geniuses on the Bronze List." Feng Wu said.
"Only fifty-six?"
Lu Ming whispered.
Every year, the Xuanyuan Sword Sect would recruit a group of disciples. As long as they were not over thirty years old, they would be considered disciples. After so many years, the number of bronze disciples in the Xuanyuan Sword Sect had already exceeded fifty thousand.
There were only fifty-six geniuses on the Bronze List who exceeded fifty thousand, one in a hundred.
One had to know that those who were able to join the Xuanyuan Sword Sect had to go through many examinations. It already represented talent, and they had to go through one in a hundred.
From this, it could be seen how talented the geniuses on the Bronze List were.
"Yao Tianyu, what rank is he?"
Lu Ming asked again.
"Fifty-one."
Feng Wu's eyes flashed, he looked at Lu Ming carefully, and said: "You can't really be thinking of challenging Yao Tianyu, right? Let me tell you, Yao Tianyu's talent is terrifying. He joined the Mystic Essence Sword Sect two years ago. I heard that during the Newcomer Trial, he was a strong contender for Newcomer King. Although he failed, his talent is not to be underestimated.
"Although he is ranked 51st, his ability has improved very quickly. I believe that he will continue to rise. Lu Ming, in another year's time, it will not be a problem for you to defeat him. However, it is still too early this year."
"Feng Wu, you don't believe me? How about we make a bet? Let's bet on whether I can defeat Yao Tianyu within four months. "
Lu Ming smiled slightly.
"Oh? "What are you betting on?"
Feng Wu said.
"What are you betting on? Let me think about it!
"Lu Ming rubbed his chin, and then, his eyes started to wander around Feng Wu's body, from upstream to downstream, and then from downstream to upstream.
From time to time, he would even sigh.
Feng Wu's beautiful face immediately turned red, she glared at Lu Ming and shouted: "Lu Ming, you … You're shameless, don't even think about it!"
"Feng Wu, why are you scolding me? Are you thinking the wrong way? I just want to bet on a big meal to see if you have that much money. You see, aren't your thoughts impure? "
Lu Ming asked in surprise.
"You …"
Feng Wu's face turned even redder, all the way to his ears. He glared fiercely at Lu Ming and said fiercely: "Alright, I'll bet. At that time, if I don't ruthlessly slaughter you, I won't be called Feng Wu."
Then, he threw a jar of medicinal wine at Lu Ming and walked away angrily.
"Hahaha!"
Lu Ming laughed out loud. It was quite interesting to occasionally tease the great beauty Feng Wu.
Opening the wine jug, Lu Ming gulped down a few mouthfuls. Then, he began to consider his future path of cultivation.
"Cultivating the Foundation Spear Technique like this is too slow. If it continues like this, I don't know when I will be able to cultivate the Flaming Astral Spear Technique. I must use external forces to speed up the cultivation of the Foundation Spear Technique."
If one wanted to enter the Bronze List, they had to master a Profound Level Martial Skill.
"Got it!"
As Lu Ming was thinking, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Following which, he gulped down the entire jar of medicinal wine.
It was a good wine, but unfortunately, it had a medicinal taste and lacked a lot of flavor.
Lu Ming clicked his tongue and walked out.
The first place he went was the Contribution Hall.
Exchanging two million silver taels for contribution points, he had a total of 20,000 contribution points.
He only had a few hundred thousand silver taels left.
Adding the contribution points from before, he had a total of 25,500 contribution points.
Then, he began to exchange for demon beast blood essence.
What he wanted to exchange now was the blood essence of a second class eighth level demon beast.
The blood essence of a second class eighth level demon beast was worth 800 contribution points.
Lu Ming exchanged twenty sets, which cost him 16,000 contribution points.
It was too expensive, causing Lu Ming's heart to twitch a few times.
He wanted to exchange for some Class 9 Lv 2 Demonic Beast Blood Essence, but it cost 1,600 Contribution Points per set.
Lu Ming smiled bitterly and could only give up for the time being.
After exchanging for demon beast blood essence, Lu Ming left the Mystic Essence Sword Sect and headed east.
The layout of the Mystic Essence Sword Sect was rather peculiar. The four courtyards occupied the four most majestic mountains in the four directions.
As for the central region, it was an even wider region.
This area not only had the Qilin Courtyard, but also the Mission Hall, the Contribution Hall, the Bronze Platform, and other important places of the Mystic Essence Sword Sect.
Further north of the Black Tortoise Courtyard was the core area of the Mystic Essence Sword Sect. This was because the sect master, gold-robed elders, gold-level disciples, and some silver-robed elders of the Mystic Essence Sword Sect were cultivating in this area.
It was the core area of the Mystic Essence Sword Sect's power.
The east of the Azure Dragon Courtyard was connected to a vast mountain range.
This mountain range was called the Coastal Mountain Range. It was vast and boundless, and countless demon beasts lived in it.
It was said that beyond the Coastal Mountain Range was the endless sea. It could be said that the Burning Sun Empire was at the easternmost part of the Divine Wilderness Continent.
Lu Ming wanted to go to the Coastal Mountain Range to find a good place to practice his spear technique.
It was impossible for Lu Ming to go deep into the Coastal Mountain Range. He was only at the periphery.
Two days later, Lu Ming went about two hundred miles deep.
Rumble!
A waterfall rumbled. The water fell from a height of over a thousand meters, forming a huge impact that shook the surrounding few hundred meters.
"This is it. I'll use this waterfall to cultivate."
Lu Ming's eyes lit up.
Then, Lu Ming took out the Flame Patterned Spear and slowly walked towards the waterfall from the side.
The silver water column fell from a height of over a thousand meters, and its momentum was extremely terrifying. The closer he got, the more he could feel the majestic power.
"To practice the spear, the first thing is to practice the spear. Only when the spear is stable can the other basic spear techniques be easily grasped."
Then, Lu Ming grabbed the end of the spear with one hand, straightened his hand, and extended the spear into the waterfall.
The moment the spear was washed by the waterfall, Lu Ming felt an extremely strong pressure on the spear. He bent his wrist and threw the spear downwards.
True Qi erupted as he pulled back the spear with a fierce force.
"What a strong force, it's not stable at all. However, this is also a good place to cultivate. Continue!"
Lu Ming's eyes were bright and unwavering.
He continued to extend the spear and infused his True Qi into the spear.
This time, he held on for two more breaths before the spear was thrown downwards by the waterfall.
"Continue!"
"Continue!"
.....
Lu Ming was not discouraged and continued to cultivate over and over again.
Lu Ming realized that cultivating the spear like this consumed a terrifying amount of True Qi. Every time he cultivated for a period of time, Lu Ming would have to go to the side and circulate the True Dragon Art to recover his True Qi.
Of course, this also had its benefits. Every time he drained his True Qi, he would cultivate and replenish it. This would make his True Qi more condensed and his foundation more stable.
During this period, Lu Ming would occasionally devour and refine a portion of demonic beast's blood essence. His cultivation base was rapidly increasing.
Seven days later, Lu Ming could already hold the spear in the waterfall for more than ten minutes. However, it was very unstable. The spear swayed back and forth in the waterfall.
However, this was already a great improvement.
