In just one month, the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit had gone through many limit tests that even the advanced Crystal Suit was rarely subjected to.
The tests were not only a challenge to the performance of the Crystal Suit, but also a huge test for the Exo's capability and physical fitness.
For example, in the limit defense test, the Crystal Suit was required to withstand heavy blows from the front for an hour.
In the heavy pressure test, the Crystal Suit was required to punch and kick continuously for several hours in an environment with ten times the gravity and ten times the atmospheric pressure.
In other sects and universities, many limit tests were either conducted with special testing magical equipment or by multiple test pilots in turns.
But in the Refining Department of the Grand Desolate War Institution, Li Yao was in charge of all the tests.
He was like a metal puppet who was driving the Crystal Suit day and night. No matter how extreme the test was, he would do it himself.
Many refiners were amazed by his crazy enthusiasm. They had never seen anyone who was so crazy about the Crystal Suit before.
As the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit gradually took shape, Li Yao's capability soared, too.
The first marrow crystal had been completely refined by him. In the extreme environments such as the Arctic Domain, the Flame Flowzone, ten times the gravity, ten times the atmospheric pressure, and hundreds of meters under the sea, he had been training for several hours. Such an unbelievable training method had enabled him to master the 'Thousand Tempering Hundred Refining' to the highest level. His body was extremely tough.
It was safe to say that even Master Tie Mu, the predecessor of the Hundred Smelting Clan who created the 'Thousand Tempering Hundred Refining' forty thousand years ago, couldn't have had such a tough body when he was at his level.
On the surface, Li Yao was only at the 11th or 12th level of the Refinement Stage.
However, even if he was faced with a Cultivator at the peak of the Refinement Stage, even without the Crystal Suit, Li Yao was confident that he could exhaust his opponent to death with his tough body.
Once he put on the Crystal Suit, he would even be able to fight a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator!
…
December 31st. The last test of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit.
After a month of testing and improvement, all the minor problems had been resolved. The Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was close to perfection.
The last test was also the first time that the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit showed its hideous appearance to the outside world.
In addition to the teachers and students of the Refining Department, the audience also included Xiong Baili and the higher-ups of the school.
At two o 'clock in the afternoon, the No. 1 testing room was bustling with activity.
All kinds of test magical equipment were placed everywhere. A giant light beam was floating in the sky, playing the picture of Li Yao training in the snowy world and the ocean of magma in the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit.
Many of the school's higher-ups nodded as they watched.
The reliability of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit and its combat ability under extreme conditions were far beyond their expectations.
As for Li Sanhao and the other freshmen of the Refining Department, they were so excited that they were jumping and cheering.
"Director Yuan, is it true that the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit does not use any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures?"
Many school executives asked Yuan Manqiu one after another.
"Judging from the test footage, the performance is quite reliable. It can also display good combat strength in extreme environments. I just don't know how it will perform in actual combat."
However, some of the school's higher-ups were still a little worried.
Yuan Manqiu smiled and said:
"The Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit does not use any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. However, its performance is exactly the same as what is shown in the test footage. It is even more powerful. Even if a Refinement Stage Cultivator wears the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, it is possible for him to compete with a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator!"
"I know that you will not believe me. Next, we will invite a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator to compete with a Refinement Stage Cultivator wearing the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit."
"Perhaps you will have some doubts about the authenticity of the test footage. However, I believe that after the match is over, all your doubts will be dispelled!"
"Shua!"
In the center of the testing room, a testing arena with a diameter of more than one hundred meters slowly rose up. A layer of pale yellow defensive barrier was shining around the arena. It looked like a translucent eggshell as it firmly wrapped the arena.
Li Yao walked into the arena and leisurely stretched his limbs. The Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was like a bloodthirsty sword, roaring like a tiger or a dragon.
On the other side, the one who walked into the arena was...
"Ding Ling Dong?"
Li Yao was dazed. A drop of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
He had only heard from Yuan Manqiu that a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator would be arranged to compete with him today. He had never expected that it would be Ding Ling Dong.
"I heard that the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit has been successfully refined. After you put it on, you will have the strength of a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator. How could I miss out on such a good thing? Therefore, I specially applied to the principal and Director Yuan. My fists will be the one to test the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit one last time. How about it? No problem, right? "
Ding Ling Dong was wearing a crimson mustard-seed combat suit. Flames were vaguely flowing around her body, outlining her soul-stirring, graceful curves. She bumped her fists together and said with a smile.
Ding Ling Dong's appearance caused a commotion.
She was a well-known figure in the school. All the teachers knew that her strength was already close to the middle level of the Building Foundation Stage. Furthermore, her innate beast-like battle instincts far surpassed that of many middle and high level Building Foundation Stage cultivators.
With Ding Lingdang as the tester, it was indeed convincing.
As a high-level Refinement Stage Cultivator, Li Yao, with the enhancement of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, how long could he last under Ding Ling Dong's fists?
Everyone wanted to know the answer, including Li Yao himself.
Li Yao's lips slightly curled. His heart was beating faster and faster.
What was flowing in his veins was not blood, but melted marrow crystals.
Although he was slightly surprised at first, on second thought, she was probably the best opponent he could have ever faced.
Ding Ling Dong was the Building Foundation Stage Cultivator that he was most eager to defeat. There was no other Building Foundation Stage Cultivator!
"Very good, then let's fight!"
Li Yao's soul was burning fiercely. His aura was growing stronger and stronger. Wisps of spiritual energy seeped out from the gaps of the Crystal Suit and formed wings around his body. As if they were being blown by an invisible hurricane, the wings spun faster and faster.
"You've made so much progress in just one month. You're simply a lunatic!"
Ding Ling Dong's eyes lit up. She beamed with joy, "But I like it!"
"Hu!"
Raging flames ignited around her body and condensed into a fire snake in the blink of an eye.
Compared to the fire snake that Li Yao saw in the Small Grayfield last time, this fire snake was smaller in size. However, its details were more delicate. Moreover, its color was white. Obviously, its temperature was higher.
"Ding Ding Ding Ding!"
The bell on Ding Ling Dong's ankle started to ring even though there was no wind. The fire snake suddenly pounced out. It opened its bloody mouth and rushed straight at Li Yao!
Li Yao bellowed. His right arm was hidden deep at his waist. Like a black hole, it sucked in all the light golden wings around his body.
Then, from his heel all the way up along his spine, all the power array glyphs emitted an orange glow one by one. Endless power surged out.
Taking advantage of the momentum, he swung his fist. Spiritual energy erupted like a volcano. The dark golden wings turned into a hurricane, intending to completely strangle the fire snake!
"Hiss!"
As if it had a life of its own, the fire snake suddenly rushed upwards and narrowly avoided Li Yao's fist. However, the dark golden wings cut a few long and narrow wounds on its abdomen.
Although the attack did not hit its target, the school's higher-ups still nodded slightly.
Especially the few battle-type cultivators in the Combat Department who were very experienced. They could not help but secretly feel astonished.
In this contest, Li Yao was not at a disadvantage at all.
Li Sanhao and the others were even more mesmerized as they cheered loudly.
"You can break my fire snake? Impressive! "
Ding Ling Dong exclaimed. Like a ghost, she blinked in front of Li Yao and launched a ferocious whip kick mixed with powerful fire-type spiritual energy.
Li Yao was caught unprepared. He could not dodge, nor did he want to dodge.
"Pa!"
The whip kick hit squarely. Tiny cracks appeared on the breastplate of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit.
Almost at the same time, Li Yao's left knee exploded on Ding Ling Dong's abdomen like a powerful crystal bomb.
Both of them grunted at the same time. However, they did not intend to dodge or block the attack at all.
Before Ding Ling Dong withdrew her whip kick, her right elbow had already smashed Li Yao's head.
Li Yao, on the other hand, simply headbutted Ding Ling Dong's face!
The ferocious fighting style made many non-battle-type Cultivators feel that their eyelids were twitching.
The more they fought, the fiercer they became. At first, one could still see two figures, one gray and one red. Later on, their speed was close to the speed of sound, leaving behind afterimages. It was as if hundreds of clones were fighting at the same time. The air was torn into pieces, giving off deafening explosions.
Very soon.
When the two of them calmed down after half a minute of high-speed collisions and stood on two sides of the arena, it was not until then that the audience realized how much damage they had suffered in the short but fierce battle just now.
On Li Yao's body, the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was on the brink of destruction. The plate armor on the front part of the battlesuit had been peeled off. Many parts of the battlesuit were exposed.
Even so, the crystal cameras on his helmet were still glittering, indicating that he was still capable of fighting.
The tough mustard-seed combat suit on Ding Lingdang's body was also torn in a few shocking holes. Blood was flowing out of the corner of her mouth. Her forehead was soaked in sweat, and her chest was heaving up and down as she gasped for breath.
Her fists were slightly shaking.
Everybody who was familiar with her was greatly surprised.
"Ding Ling Dong has indeed tried her best. It's been a long time since I last saw her fists shaking."
Xia Yan, director of the Combat Department, said.
"Yes. Although Ding Ling Dong hasn't used her spiritual tattoos yet, Li Yao hasn't used any attack magical equipment, either. He hasn't used his storm bolter or his chainsword. He is competing with an opponent multiple levels higher than him purely with the enhancement ability of the Crystal Suit."
Xiong Baili sighed and said with a complicated expression, "It is enough to prove the capability of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit. Ask them to stop. Director Yuan, the Grand Desolate War Institution has finally produced the first Crystal Suit of our own. Thank you for your hard work!"
"With your words, it's worth it no matter how hard it is!"
Yuan Manqiu's voice was shivering. She took a deep breath and said loudly, "Li Yao, Ding Ling Dong."
