If Fang Xingjian still did not understand what Huang Lin was trying to say, he would be a fool. Moreover, with his talent, it would be great to have someone as powerful as Huang Lin to protect him.
Therefore, Fang Xingjian half-knelt and said, "Master, please accept my bow."
"Good, good, good." Huang Lin smiled, looking at Fang Xingjian with a satisfied gaze.
The examiners at the side shook their heads and sighed, feeling extremely regretful. Who among them would not want a disciple with a talent like Fang Xingjian's?
"Congratulations to Sir for accepting a good disciple."
"To think that after so many years, Sir has finally accepted another disciple."
The white-bearded examiner smiled and shook his head. He pointed at Huang Lin and said, "Good, no wonder you refused to tell us why you gave him full marks for the second stage. So you've been thinking of accepting a disciple before us. Sigh, I really regret it. Why didn't I see that his Grizzly Bear Sword Technique had surpassed level 10?"
"Haha." Huang Lin smiled and looked at Fang Xingjian, saying, "Your talent is very good. I'll accept you as my disciple for the time being." With that, his expression turned serious and he said, "But I'm very strict with my lessons. If you don't meet my requirements in the future, I'll expel you from the academy."
Fang Xingjian's expression did not change as he said, "I'll listen to Master's decision."
Huang Lin's expression softened and he said, "Mmm, you can leave first. Come look for me after you've reported to the academy."
What he meant was that Fang Xingjian would definitely pass the Prefectural Selection. And that was the truth. With Fang Xingjian's results, if he did not pass the Prefectural Selection, no one else would be able to.
Fang Xingjian backed off slowly. However, when he was halfway back, he still stopped. He had discovered a problem after performing the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth. A row of numbers had suddenly appeared at the bottom of his Stats Window.
Current Potential: 123300.
'What … is this?'
He had wanted to go back and study it himself, but he suddenly remembered that this world had been digitized for many years, so the research on the Stats Window should be very thorough.
So he stopped, turned around and asked, "Teacher, I have a question to ask."
Huang Lin nodded. "Go ahead, but I still have to supervise the exam, so we'll talk about it later."
Fang Xingjian hurriedly asked, "Teacher, do you know about potential?" He didn't dare to directly say that this thing had appeared on his interface. Instead, he asked in a roundabout way.
Hearing Fang Xingjian's question, the seven examiners present exchanged glances, and in the next moment, all of them burst out laughing.
Seeing Fang Xingjian's puzzled expression, Huang Lin said, "You're not from a noble family, so it's normal that you don't know these things. Back when you were at The School of Sword Arts, you should have learned that the Nurturing Path is a way of accumulating and developing the body's potential, strengthening the physique, right? "
Seeing that Fang Xingjian had nodded, Huang Lin continued, "The potential you're talking about is accumulated through the Nurturing technique. But normally, you won't be able to sense it. Only after learning the training technique and depleting the potential will you be able to see it on your Stats Window. "
All the examiners present had experienced this before. Hearing this, they all nodded in unison. Huang Lin saw a hint of understanding flash across Fang Xingjian's face. He smiled and said, "Do you understand now? The Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth is a training technique. Earlier on, you've activated the potential display on your Stats Window. "Hmph, trying to play tricks with us? In the future, if you have any questions, just ask directly. Don't beat around the bush. "
Although Huang Lin was reprimanding him, he still reminded him with concern, "Martial arts training techniques are very effective in raising the body's toughness. However, each practice will deplete one's potential. For each attribute from 10 to 19 points, every 10,000 potential points will increase one's attribute. For attributes from 20 to 29 points, every 20,000 potential points will increase one's attribute. From 30 points onwards, every 30,000 potential points will increase one's attribute. So on and so forth, as long as you use the training technique to stimulate and deplete enough potential points, you'll be able to increase one's attribute according to the training technique you're cultivating. "However, if you train in a situation where your potential is insufficient, it will harm your body. When you're training, you must not deplete your potential."
"Your disciple understands. Does the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth cultivate strength? "
"That's right. The other Nine-Headed Dragon Sword Technique cultivates flexibility."
"Alright, you can leave first."
Following this, Fang Xingjian naturally left the examination hall. He took the other passageway, not letting the other examinees see the entire process of the examination.
He was guided by the staff to leave the Knight Academy and head towards Kirst City.
However, halfway there, he could not help but start practicing the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth. This was the first time he was learning the Training Technique of sword arts. He was too curious about the differences between Training Techniques and Nurturing Techniques, as well as the profoundness behind them.
In fact, on the way out of the academy, he had already been itching to learn it.
With the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth, with each slash, Fang Xingjian would take a step forward. With each step, the earth and atmosphere seemed to tremble a little, and his aura surged. After sixteen steps, Fang Xingjian's aura surged and his muscles and bones trembled. He was like a god descending to the mortal world, and his entire person seemed to have swelled up.
Hu ~ ~ ~
After exhaling lightly, Fang Xingjian stopped, large amounts of perspiration seemed to be oozing out from every pore on his body, as if he had been in a sauna.
'Is this the Training Technique? Like the scorching heat of summer, tempering the body and stimulating one's potential. The cultivation of the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth is indeed extremely arduous. It feels like I've practiced the Grizzly Bear Sword Technique tens of times. '
Fang Xingjian only felt that in the process of practicing the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth, every muscle fiber in his body, especially his arms and back, seemed to be torn apart, undergoing an unprecedented training.
Following this, Fang Xingjian continued on his way, practicing the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth. He soon discovered that each time he practiced the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth, it would deplete 10 potential points.
When Fang Xingjian practiced it for the twelfth time, the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth rose to level 2. When Fang Xingjian performed it again, each time he practiced it, he would deplete 20 potential points.
Therefore, Fang Xingjian walked on the ground, swinging his sword and slashing, practicing the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth while rushing home.
By the time he returned to the dilapidated house, the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth had already reached level 4. His clothes were drenched in sweat, and he looked like a cooked prawn, with a hint of redness in his eyes. It was obvious that the muscles and bones in his body were emitting a huge amount of heat like a furnace due to the intense training.
However, he did not stop. Perhaps it was because the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth was a Training Technique, and it was the first time he had learned it. Perhaps it was because he had passed the Prefectural Selection and become a Knight, or perhaps it was because he had become the disciple of the second transition expert Huang Lin, or perhaps it was because he was one step closer to his path of revenge. He felt that he was a little excited tonight.
Feeling the sweat all over his body, he took off his clothes, revealing his strong muscles. Fang Xingjian continued practicing the Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth.
He practiced the entire night, going to The School of Sword Arts for breakfast before returning to continue practicing. By the afternoon, his Hegemonic Qi Slash of Heavens and Earth had already reached level 6. Each time he practiced it, he would deplete 60 potential points. In total, he had depleted over 20,000 potential points. However, his current strength was 36 points, and he still needed to deplete less than 10,000 potential points to increase his strength by one point.
