Zishan Academy, Library.
This was the place where Zishan Academy stored their martial arts manuals.
In the first month that Ye Xing, Wu Yuan, and Ma Bo entered Zishan Academy, they didn't attend classes or cultivate. Instead, they were punished to clean the library.
The Zishan Academy's library contained a vast amount of martial arts manuals. It was divided into four floors, from low-grade martial arts to supreme-grade martial arts.
The library's fourth floor contained supreme-grade martial arts manuals. Most of them were incomplete, but there were also complete supreme-grade martial arts manuals. This floor was a forbidden area, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter.
Ye Xing and the other two only had to clean the first three floors containing low-grade, mid-grade, and high-grade martial arts manuals.
The martial arts manuals in the library could be read, but were not allowed to be copied. Every once in a while, the Academy's Deacons would patrol the library, and when they left, they would be inspected. If someone copied the martial arts manuals in the library, it was a very serious crime, and they would be crippled of their martial arts and expelled from the Academy.
Wu Yuan and Ma Bo were naturally in charge of cleaning the library. Ye Xing was in charge of reading books in the library, and only when the Deacons patrolled the library did he pretend to clean.
To Ye Xing, the library was a huge treasure. Whether it was the Yeh family's martial arts pavilion or the Xiong family's martial arts pavilion, they were like small study rooms in front of the library, not worth mentioning.
The martial arts manuals in the Yeh family's and Xiong family's martial arts pavilions, excluding the duplicates, did not even amount to a hundred. But in Zishan Academy's library, there were more than two thousand martial arts manuals, which was ten times more than the two martial arts pavilions combined.
Ye Xing had the super brain, but what he lacked was martial arts knowledge. The more martial arts manuals he read, the higher his understanding of martial arts theory would be, and the easier it would be for him to cultivate martial arts to a higher level.
A martial arts manual could be as short as a few hundred words and as long as a few thousand words. Moreover, it involved the human body's meridians, blood, flesh, tendons, bones, skin, as well as the aura of the mountains and rivers, the changes of the sun, moon, and stars, the energy of the earth, water, wind, and fire, and so on. It was difficult to understand.
Inferior Grade Martial Arts and Medial Grade Martial Arts were still fine. The content involved was relatively simple. Normally, cultivators with some comprehension ability could learn by themselves through secret manuals. However, for Superior Grade Martial Arts and above, if there was no one to teach them, it would be like a heavenly book.
For other martial artists, even if they were to seclude themselves in the library and read for a year, they wouldn't be able to remember many martial arts secret manuals. Furthermore, as time passed, their memories would gradually fade away.
As for the martial arts secret manuals that could be understood, there were even fewer of them.
But that was not the case for Ye Xing. Every time he flipped through a book, all of its contents would be scanned into his superbrain and stored there forever.
Moreover, through the superbrain's powerful analysis function, it could verify and deduce different martial arts. This allowed Ye Xing to learn all kinds of martial arts secret manuals by himself, provided that his martial arts knowledge could keep up.
For example, Ye Xing's martial arts knowledge was better than that of a martial dao master. Therefore, it was very difficult for a martial dao master to cultivate a Superior Grade Martial Arts to the Mastery Realm, but Ye Xing could.
A person's ultimate martial arts attainment was related to their level of martial arts knowledge to a certain extent.
It was hard to imagine what level Ye Xing's martial arts knowledge would reach if he read all the martial arts secret manuals in the library and comprehended them thoroughly.
It was certain that he would have no problem cultivating a Superior Grade Martial Arts to the Mastery Realm.
Ye Xing's reading speed was too fast. Even though he spent at least two hours a day pretending to clean, he could still read hundreds of martial arts secret manuals in a day.
Ye Xing did not care whether he comprehended them or not. He just scanned them and copied them into his superbrain. He would think about the rest later.
At night, Ye Xing cultivated Qingyuan Art to improve his cultivation. He had already read the complete Qingyuan Art manual in the library. He had already memorized the cultivation chants for the last three stages. With his talent in martial arts, it would not take long for him to make progress in Qingyuan Art.
In just five days, Ye Xing went through more than two thousand martial arts secret manuals on the first three floors of the library. He did not read them carefully and did not understand their meanings, but the contents were all scanned into his superbrain.
It was easy to scan them into his superbrain, but it was much more difficult to master them. Although it was only a matter of time for him to master them with the superbrain's powerful functions, it still required a lot of time.
This was because the amount of knowledge was too large. Once Ye Xing mastered them, even a martial arts grandmaster would not be able to compare with him in terms of martial arts knowledge.
Mastering martial arts was not something that could be done in haste. Ye Xing was not in a hurry. Every day, he focused on cultivating martial arts. In the process of cultivation, all kinds of martial arts would naturally be slowly mastered.
Time passed slowly, day after day.
Ye Xing's martial arts knowledge level improved by leaps and bounds. His actual martial arts attainment also increased every day.
One after another, Ye Xing successfully cultivated the Inferior Grade Martial Arts to the Perfection Realm.
As Ye Xing's knowledge of martial arts increased, the super brain deduced and improved the QingYuan Art again. It improved the QingYuan Art to the level of a supreme-grade cultivation method, allowing him to open up fifteen meridians for cultivation. With the help of the four high-grade Star Accumulation Pills, Ye Xing's cultivation base also increased rapidly.
When Wei Qingxuan learned that Ye Xing was punished, she came to visit Ye Xing several times after cleaning the library. She saw that Ye Xing did not look like he was punished at all. Instead, he was high-spirited and in a good mood. Wei Qingxuan was completely relieved.
On the tenth day, Ye Xing's Qingyuan Art made progress and broke through to the fourth level.
The first three levels of Qingyuan Art opened up the meridians, and the last three levels strengthened the internal strength. The fourth level of internal strength made Ye Xing stronger than martial artists of the same level. He was only at the early stage of Lv Six, but in terms of internal strength, he was stronger than those in the middle stage of Lv Six.
On the fifteenth day, Ye Xing's cultivation level finally improved and reached the middle stage of Lv Six.
Even a genius would need several months to improve the cultivation level of Lv Six. Ye Xing's cultivation level improved by a small level in just half a month. It could be seen that the Superior Grade Qingyuan Art was really effective.
Of course, the four Superior Grade Star Accumulating Pills also contributed a lot. Without the help of Star Accumulating Pills, his cultivation would be slower.
Ye Xing only used half a month to go from the early stage of Lv Six to the middle stage of Lv Six. However, even if another month and a half passed, Ye Xing might not be able to cultivate from the middle stage of Lv Six to the late stage of Lv Six.
Ye Xing and the other two went to the library every day and stayed in dormitory 175 at night. They did not have much interaction with the other students. The other students also did not have time to pay attention to Ye Xing and the other two.
The month before entering the academy was the busiest month, because after the first month, the academy would conduct an assessment for all the new disciples. The top ranked students would be given generous rewards to encourage the students to compete for the top spots.
Therefore, in the first month, if the new students were not listening to the teacher's lessons, they would be cultivating by themselves. Almost no one paid attention to Ye Xing and the other two.
Not only were the new students busy, but the advanced class students were also very busy. Their assessment was in three months and the level of rewards was much higher than the new students' assessment. Naturally, they were also busy cultivating.
However, even so, Xiong Qisheng did not cause trouble for Ye Xing during this period of time, which surprised him.
Although he was surprised, Ye Xing was happy in his heart. It was best if there was no trouble.
As time passed, when Ye Xing cultivated more than a hundred low-grade martial skills to the Perfection Stage, he had already taken a small step towards mastering the various martial skills stored in his super brain. The level of his martial skills had increased by a large margin. Ye Xing had a feeling that his middle-grade martial skills seemed to have touched the edge of the Perfection Stage.
Therefore, in addition to cultivating low-grade martial skills, Ye Xing also began to cultivate middle-grade martial skills every day.
On the twenty-fifth day of his punishment, Ye Xing's martial skills reached another milestone. The middle-grade martial skill, Tiger Stallion Fist, was cultivated to the Perfection Stage.
This was the first time that Ye Xing had cultivated a middle-grade martial skill to the Perfection Stage. Previously, his Seven Stars Steps and Flying Swan Technique were only at the Perfection Stage. It was because he had fused a trace of wind force that he was able to stand at the Perfection Stage.
When a middle-grade martial skill reached the Perfection Stage, it was even easier to cultivate the other middle-grade martial skills. In the next few days, almost every day, there would be one or two middle-grade martial skills that reached the Perfection Stage.
Ye Xing's martial arts attainment had already reached the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Only a true Martial Arts Grandmaster could easily cultivate a middle-grade martial arts technique to the Martial Arts Grandmaster level.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the last day of his punishment.
In the past month, Ye Xing's knowledge of martial arts and his attainments in martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds. He had undergone a tremendous change.
As his martial arts attainments increased, Ye Xing's temperament changed as well. His every move was natural and natural.
He looked like a Martial Dao Master of a generation.
At night, in Dormitory 175, Ye Xing was sitting cross-legged, cultivating Qingyuan Technique.
A month had passed, and tomorrow was the day of the assessment. According to the news brought by Wei Qingxuan, the progress of the students in the Gifted Class had been very fast.
Many Eight-Star Destiny Realm students were originally at the peak or peak of the sixth level. However, with the help of the high-grade Star Accumulating Pill and the guidance of the ninth level Martial Dao Master, at least ten of them had broken through to the seventh level and became Martial Dao Masters.
Not only that, under the guidance of the ninth level Martial Dao Master, the martial skills of the Gifted Class had also increased rapidly. It was inevitable for them to cultivate their high-grade martial skills to the Entry Stage. Those with outstanding talent had already cultivated their high-grade martial skills to the Lesser Success Stage, or even beyond that.
The assessment was the time for Ye Xing to prove himself. The academy had eliminated him to the Ordinary Class, so he used this fact to tell everyone who was the real genius.
Therefore, regardless of whether it was for the reward of first place or to prove his strength, Ye Xing was determined to obtain first place in this new student assessment.
He wanted to defeat all the freshmen in the Gifted Class. This was his response to the academy eliminating him to the Ordinary Class.
Ye Xing's cultivation was still far from the late-stage of the sixth level. He only had one night left, so the reason why he was diligently cultivating Qingyuan Technique was naturally not to increase his cultivation.
It was because his Qingyuan Technique was only a step away from the fifth level. If he could break through, his internal energy would be strengthened. This was even better than raising his cultivation to the late-stage of the sixth level.
Hard work paid off. Ye Xing's Qingyuan Technique had broken through to the fifth level.
