The entire hall was silent. Clearly, that person was deep in thought as well.
"Then, what do you mean?"
That person turned to look at Zhao Qianqiu with a questioning gaze. As an instructor, Zhao Qianqiu had more say in this matter.
"Hehe, I've never thought about it either. Everything is still just my conjecture. Besides, this is only the beginning. This is only the first day of the Kunwu Training Camp. We'll know how things turn out in the future. "
Zhao Qianqiu replied. He seemed to be very open-minded in this aspect.
"Haha, that's fine too. Today is the first day of the Kunwu Training Camp. After gathering the information from you, I'll be returning to the royal palace to report to His Majesty. His Majesty has been keeping an eye on this matter. "
The person in the hall chuckled.
"Hehe, I'll be sending you off then. It just so happens that I have something to add to the food for those fellows tonight. The first day of the Kunwu Training Camp isn't a place for them to indulge in debauchery. As my student, you should have this resolve. "
Zhao Qianqiu chuckled.
"Hahaha, don't go overboard!"
That person was also amused by Zhao Qianqiu's words. Clearly, he knew the latter's style.
"Understood."
Zhao Qianqiu clasped his fist before leaving the hall.
After Zhao Qianqiu left, the figure also left the Kunwu Training Camp.
...
Time slowly passed, and the sky outside was already completely dark.
Wang Chong was seated on the floor, not moving at all. Origin Energy gushed through his body like a tidal wave, flowing into the meridians and acupoints of Wang Chong's arms, shoulders, waist, and groin.
Most agility-type cultivation techniques involved the acupoints of the arms, waist, and groin. Furthermore, most of them were brand new meridians and acupoints, and most of them didn't overlap with strength-type cultivation techniques.
On the other hand, high-tier secret arts like the 'Hexad Arms Technique' required far more acupoints than ordinary agility-type cultivation techniques. It was as though he had to cultivate it all over again, which was time-consuming and strenuous.
On top of that, if he were to choose an 'agility-type' secret art, the number of acupoints and acupoints that he would have to clear would be even greater. At that time, he would need to open up hundreds of acupoints.
Cultivating three types of secret arts at the same time would involve so many acupoints. If one were to bite off more than one could chew, one would probably remain stagnant for the rest of one's life.
This was also the reason why Zhao Qianqiu, as well as the entire martial arts world, advised against cultivating all three types of secret arts simultaneously before reaching True Martial realm.
However, Wang Chong was different. Wang Chong had not taken the two pills that the Holy Emperor had bestowed upon him in prison. The Zhuang Family and Chi Family had spent a lot of money to give him two more pills, making it four pills in total.
Moreover, he could also get a few special pills from Liuzhi Zhang every month, which were refined by the Alchemist in the Imperial Palace and the Prince's Mansion.
It was because of this confidence that Wang Chong dared to choose two or even three types of unique skills at the same time.
The Hexad Arms Technique was difficult to cultivate, but it was extremely powerful. Paired with the Single Character Consecutive Slash, it could amplify one's prowess exponentially.
The reason why Wang Chong kept the pills from the Holy Emperor was so that he could cultivate the Hexad Arms Technique when he was released from prison.
"I should first cultivate the Hexad Arms Technique to Minor Accomplishment before consuming the pills. Using the medicinal energy from the pills, I should be able to break through the meridians and acupoints in my arms. This way, I should be able to cultivate the Hexad Arms Technique in the shortest time possible."
Wang Chong thought.
In the Origin Energy realm, the Hexad Arms Technique was definitely one of the best agility-type secret arts. In fact, even in the True Martial realm, it was an extremely powerful secret art.
Under the shroud of night, the entire White Tiger Mountain was silent. Wang Chong was immersed in the cultivation of the Hexad Arms Technique, oblivious to the passing of time in the outside world.
Ka!
After an unknown period of time, Wang Chong suddenly heard a crisp sound, as though someone was stepping on a tree branch.
It was only for a moment before it stopped.
"Hmm?"
Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly opened his eyes. It was extremely suspicious to hear such a crisp sound in the dead of the night.
Furthermore, the sound was very close to his room.
Wang Chong listened carefully, but it was completely silent outside the room. That sound only sounded for a moment before vanishing.
"Strange, did I hear wrongly?"
Wang Chong was surprised.
The room was pitch black, and there was no light. Wang Chong listened carefully. Other than himself, Wang Chong also heard the sound of a heartbeat. It was faint and long. This was Su Hanshan's voice.
It was unknown when he returned from outside, but he didn't light up the room either. Wang Chong listened for a moment, and he immediately realized that Su Hanshan seemed to have noticed something as well, and he was listening carefully just like him.
Bang!
All of a sudden, a loud sound echoed, as though something heavy had crashed into the room. The sound was very close, as though it came from the room next door.
Then, he heard a loud cry of panic, and it was extremely striking in the darkness.
"Jingdian!"
Wang Chong's body jolted, and his face immediately warped. That voice wasn't Zhao Jingdian's, but the examinee who had shouted earlier that he wouldn't stay with Su Hanshan.
Since Zhao Jingdian was staying with him, there was no doubt that something had happened on his side.
Weng!
Wang Chong immediately leaped up from the ground and dashed toward the door.
"Roar! — — "
In the blink of an eye, just as Wang Chong was about to reach the entrance, the roar of a tiger sounded. In the darkness of the night, a black silhouette flashed, and a massive figure charged in, bringing with it the stench of the mountain wind.
"A tiger?"
Wang Chong was astonished. Under the dim light of the night, Wang Chong could vaguely make out a two-meter-long adult tiger. Its head was thicker than four human heads, and its body was even larger than a bear.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, Wang Chong's right fist collided heavily with the tiger's claw.
Peng, a powerful force came from the tiger's claw, and Wang Chong felt a sharp pain in his wrist before he was sent flying. Pushing against the ground, Wang Chong made use of the force to leap away, pulling open the distance between them.
At the same time, the tiger trembled, and its four paws landed on the ground. A red glow glowed in its eyes. Under the dim light, Wang Chong could clearly see that the tiger's stomach was shriveled up, and its two bellies were almost touching each other.
This is a ravenous tiger! "
A thought flashed across Wang Chong's mind, and his face warped. Everyone knew that a ravenous tiger would be much more ferocious and aggressive than a normal tiger.
Through the previous clash, Wang Chong could tell that the strength of the tiger before him was probably on par with him, if not stronger.
Moreover, its bones were harder than his.
Although martial artists also had "tiger bones," they only imitated tigers and couldn't be compared to real tigers.
(PS: Many people tend to confuse tigers with leopards, and think that tigers are not much bigger than leopards. Or maybe not much bigger than humans. In fact, tigers are much bigger than humans. An adult tiger can grow up to 2.45 meters long at its peak. When it stands up, it is much taller than a human. Its body is extremely huge.
In addition, its head is equivalent to three or four adult heads, and the force of a claw can reach up to two tons. It can easily crush a human's skull. You can check this information.)
"Roar!"
Before the first wave subsided, another wave arose. Almost at the same time that the tiger landed on the ground, in the darkness, the mountain wind blew, and two more colorful giant tigers pounced from outside the door. One on the left and the other on the right, they appeared beside the tiger.
Seeing the two tigers, Su Hanshan also stood up in another room in the darkness.
The rooms in the Kunwu Training Camp were connected, and there was nothing separating them.
While Wang Chong was being targeted, Su Hanshan was also being targeted by the other two tigers. One tiger might be insignificant, but three tigers were a different story.
"Roar!"
The forest shook, and the roar of a tiger echoed from the neighboring hall. It was Zhao Jingdian and the others. At the same time, as though infected by the roar, the three tigers charged toward Wang Chong while the other two pounced toward Su Hanshan.
In the darkness, a gust of wind blew, and with a flash of light, the mountain-sized tiger had already arrived before Wang Chong. Speed, strength, agility, and explosiveness … At this moment, all of them were on full display before Wang Chong.
Back at the Wang Family Residence, Wang Chong had tried out the explosiveness of a Tiger Bone realm expert, allowing him to pounce over a distance of several dozen zhang. However, compared to a true tiger, he paled in comparison.
One was imitating a tiger while the other was a true tiger. The difference between the two was clear.
Weng!
Without any time to think, Wang Chong executed the Celestial Steps and dodged to the side. Boom! Behind him, the table in Wang Chong's room shattered into pieces. The tiger's claw landed on the floor, creating a massive crater.
After missing its attack, the hungry tiger immediately counterattacked and chased after Wang Chong.
But at this moment, Wang Chong had already reached the bedside and grabbed the sword that he had placed on the bed when he was cultivating.
Qiang!
With a resounding roar, Wang Chong drew his sword, and in that instant, his aura abruptly changed. Executing the 'Single Character Consecutive Slash', he abruptly escaped from the claws of the massive tiger, twisted in midair, and rebounded back to where Wang Chong and his sword had come from.
Single Character Consecutive Slash!
Boom!
The sword flashed, and a scream of agony echoed in the room. Wang Chong's sword had pierced through the body of the hungry tiger.
However, the expected scene of the tiger being cut in half did not happen. When the sword entered the tiger's body, it was as if it had hit a metal plate. It was stuck and could not continue.
"Tiger bone!"
A thought flashed in Wang Chong's mind. The tiger's bones were harder and denser than human martial artists. Swords and sabers could pierce through its flesh, but it was difficult to cut its bones in half.
Wang Chong's sword did not kill it. Instead, it triggered the tiger's ferocious nature. One of the tiger's claws flickered with a cold light and smashed towards Wang Chong like a small mountain.
The strength contained in the tiger's claws could probably bend and break steel.
Wang Chong did not dare to resist. He quickly retreated and touched a sword on the wall. The scabbard of the sword looked very ordinary. It was only worth a few dozen copper coins and was very inconspicuous.
Many people would not pay attention to it even if they saw it. Even if it was given to him, he might not want it.
But to Wang Chong, this sword was the most powerful treasure sword that he had brought with him.
Clang!
Wherever the cold light passed, blood splattered. A huge furry tiger head rolled on the floor. The tough and powerful tiger bone could not block Wang Chong's sword at all.
