Blood Wing Academy, Painting Grounds, Flowing Rain Court.
In a small courtyard, Nie Tian sat cross-legged, a vigorous energy circulating within his body, condensing into a faint barrier around his body, releasing a completely different bloodline aura.
After a while, he stood up, his brows furrowed, his face filled with confusion.
Ever since the various energies in his body had been devoured by the power of the stars, he had quickly broken through to the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. Now, he was already a first-level Heavenly Tribulation Realm expert.
However, after breaking through, he didn't feel any increase in strength. On the contrary, it had actually decreased.
What made him even more depressed was that the new bloodline power in his body was very mysterious. It was very difficult to activate, requiring a high degree of concentration to use.
"Your weakening is due to the integration of energies. Many energies were devoured and fused, and the new bloodline formed is not mature yet, so it is somewhat weak. But in the long run, this is very beneficial to you, because the potential of your Martial Body has greatly increased, "Fat Cat's voice rang out, saying faintly.
"Mhm." Nie Tian nodded slightly. He had a deep understanding of what Fat Cat had said.
Previously, because there was too much energy in his body, too complicated, every time he used a certain energy, he would feel a strong sense of oppression.
But now, when he used the new bloodline, he didn't feel any oppression. On the contrary, the feeling of power erupting made him feel incomparably comfortable.
"This new bloodline was devoured by the stars. Why don't we call it the Star Bloodline?" Nie Tian smiled faintly as he sensed the circulation of the bloodline power.
Fat Cat didn't reply. He didn't care what the bloodline name was.
"Three days, the arranged battle with Zhu Xiyi is over." Nie Tian smiled and walked out of Flowing Rain Court, heading towards Su Yue's place.
Soon, he arrived at Su Yue's Red Leaf Pavilion. As expected, Zhu Xiyi was also there.
"Nie Tian, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Zhu Xiyi's eyes blazed when he saw Nie Tian arrive.
"It seems that you really want to win." Nie Tian laughed, his face indifferent.
His desire to win was as strong as Zhu Xiyi's, but he didn't take this challenge too seriously. It would be great if he won, but it didn't matter if he lost.
He knew that in a true battle between martial artists, it was always a battle to the death, but this was not the case. It was just a friendly match.
"Nie Tian, you've already broken through to the Heavenly Tribulation realm, so I'm not taking advantage of you." Zhu Xiyi nodded slightly. He couldn't help but have a strange expression when he sensed Nie Tian's aura.
He felt that Nie Tian's aura was a little different from when he was in the Hidden Dragon Struggle and the Ancestral Dragon's Abyss. It was very strange.
Moreover, Nie Tian's cultivation had clearly increased, but his aura was not as majestic as before.
"Let's go and find a place." Nie Tian smiled faintly. He was also looking forward to the next battle.
His bloodline had just stabilized, and he had broken through to the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. He needed an opponent to test it out, and Zhu Xiyi was undoubtedly very suitable.
"Are you guys really going to fight?" Su Yue looked at the two of them and asked with a troubled expression.
"Of course." Zhu Xiyi smiled faintly and said, "I've been looking forward to it for a long time."
"Can't we not fight?" Su Yue frowned and said, "Both of you are very strong. It won't be good if you injure each other during the fight."
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Zhu Xiyi said confidently, "We aren't that weak."
"Don't worry, it's just a friendly match, not a life-and-death duel," said Nie Tian with a smile. He knew that Su Yue was worried about Zhu Xiyi.
Indeed, Su Yue was very worried about Zhu Xiyi.
On one hand, she had special feelings for Zhu Xiyi. On the other hand, she knew very well how terrifying Nie Tian was.
She had personally seen Nie Tian endure Min Renqiu's oppression head-on.
Although Zhu Xiyi had the reputation of being able to subdue the heavens, he had, after all, lost to Nie Tian. Moreover, Su Yue felt that Zhu Xiyi shouldn't be a match for Nie Tian.
Su Yue's gaze swept over Zhu Xiyi and Nie Tian. Suddenly, she thought of something and said in pleasant surprise, "Why don't you guys change the method of sparring?"
"Change the method?" Nie Tian and Zhu Xiyi were both surprised, curious.
Su Yue's eyes brightened as she asked, "Do you guys know about the academy's bounty missions?"
"No." Zhu Xiyi and Nie Tian shook their heads.
"Then I'll bring you guys to take a look." Su Yue laughed, then ran out excitedly.
Nie Tian and Zhu Xiyi were puzzled, but they still followed.
Soon, they arrived at the academy's mission board.
Periodically, Bloodwing Academy would issue missions. After completing the missions, one could obtain the corresponding points. After accumulating 100 points, one could freely choose whether or not to leave the academy.
Among them, one of the academy's missions was a bounty mission.
The so-called bounty mission was to capture or kill a few people for the academy.
The majority of these people were people who had committed crimes in the academy and then fled the academy.
However, the matter of capturing them was very troublesome. Spending a lot of effort would not bring them much benefit. If the same amount of time was spent on training, it would be even better.
Thus, as time passed, the academy's bounty missions increased more and more, to the point where it was almost a disaster.
Nie Tian's group of three arrived in front of a bulletin board and saw that it was filled with black names. Behind the names were the corresponding introductions and credits, and there was also a token hanging on the back.
"Look, these are all people who have committed crimes in the academy. You guys can choose the bounty mission and see who completes it first," Su Yue said excitedly as she looked at the bulletin board.
Nie Tian's gaze swept across, and he could not help but frown. He said, "There are several tens of thousands of people on there. There are even some people from several tens of thousands of years ago. Could it be that the academy allows them to stir up trouble outside and does not care?"
Among the people on there, there were those who killed, those who raped, those who stole, and there were even those who poisoned human lives to cultivate taboo martial techniques.
From Nie Tian's point of view, these people should all be killed.
After these people escaped from the academy, they would definitely not be good people.
Su Yue sighed and said, "The academy has no other choice. There are too many people to capture. The majority of people do not like bounty missions. They are dangerous and troublesome, and most importantly, they will take a long time. Everyone is busy training. How would they have the time to capture people? "
Nie Tian's eyebrows furrowed in agreement.
In the world of martial cultivation, the strong were revered. The stronger a cultivator was, the more indifferent they would be to certain things. They would pay more attention to their own martial path and would not be disturbed by the matters of the outside world.
Although these people had committed crimes, as long as they did not threaten the academy, what did it have to do with them?
"Brother Zhu, why don't we each choose a bounty mission? Whoever completes it first will be the winner. What do you think?" Nie Tian looked at Zhu Xiyi and asked in a provocative tone.
"This …" Zhu Xiyi's expression was a bit awkward as he said, "These people left the academy a long time ago. Who knows where they went? If we were to go and capture them, just finding them would take a long time."
It was obvious that he did not want to waste too much time on this.
From his point of view, he and Nie Tian were both young cultivators. It was a great opportunity for them to cultivate. If they wasted time on capturing people, it would not be worth it.
"Leave the matter of finding people to me. You only need to be responsible for capturing people," Nie Tian said mysteriously with a faint smile.
"Are you sure you can find them?" Zhu Xiyi frowned and looked at Nie Tian suspiciously.
"Don't worry." Nie Tian nodded and smiled. He was extremely confident.
"Since it is like this, I accept." Zhu Xiyi saw Nie Tian's determination and let out a long breath. He nodded heavily.
