The Battle Through Heaven
Training Progress
Xiao Yan leaned his back against the door after he entered the training room. His originally slippery red face suddenly became much paler. ‘Swift Wind Spirit Pill’ that he consumed before his training had caused Dou Qi to increase his circulating intensity for a short period of time. However, after his training was interrupted, the side effects of the ‘Swift Wind Spirit Pill’ had appeared. The Dou Qi that was slowly rotating within his body caused Xiao Yan to have a weak feeling flowing throughout his body. Previously, one of the reasons that/that Xiao Yan had used the ‘Angry Buddha Lotus Flame’ when exchanging blows with Lei Na earlier was to use it to show his strength and deter others. Another hidden reason was that the/it was weak Dou Qi in his body was not enough to allow him to last too long against Lei Na's hand.
Xiao Yan glanced at his shattered robe and softly sighed. He could not help the fear that was in his heart. If Lei Na's previous attack was a little faster, it seemed like Xiao Yan would be forced to open a gap, and would end up with a serious wound. Fortunately, the appearance of the ‘Angry Buddha Lotus Flame’ had caused Lei Na to first lose her fighting spirit. The detergent effect he needed was also achieved perfectly. All of these have some good luck elements mixed in.
Xiao Yan gently coughed for a few times. He slowly walked onto the black stone platform and sat cross-legged on it with great difficulty. He inhaled and exhaled warm air several times before forming his training seal. After which, he once again entered his training state, circulated his Dou Qi and slowly recovered his condition.
After nearly three to four hours of training while sitting cross-legged, the feeling of weakness in Xiao Yan's body gradually disappeared. The slow Dou Qi as a result of the ‘Swift Wind Spirit Pill’ also began to slowly recover its normal state.
After the condition in his body recovered, Xiao Yan once again took out the ‘Swift Wind Spirit Pill’ and swallowed it. Once again, he entered his retreat training state!
Earlier Xiao Yan learned that/that Liu Fei seemed to have a very strong cousin from her own mouth. Moreover, from looking at the level of respect that Lei Na had towards this older cousin, it was obvious that/it was the strength of this person far surpassing Lei Na. Although he was considered to have gained an advantage in this matter today due to favoritism by Elder He, he had most likely completely offended the woman because of this. This type of woman who seemed meek, but was extremely haughty bones would likely not be aware of the so-called appeasement based on Xiao Yan's expectations. Hence ... in order to end some problems in the future, the current Xiao Yan needed to quickly increase his strength!
There is no concept of time during training. Five full days had passed since the incident that occurred in the third level of that day. During these five days, the name Xiao Yan had gradually been transmitted to the ears of all the students who were practicing inside the ‘Glooming Qi Soldering Tower.’
The terrifying fire lotus skill that had frightened Lei Na, who was a four star Dou Ling, until she lost her fighting spirit on the spot. Xiao Yan also did not give Liu Fei, who had the beautiful name Snow Fairy within the Inner Academy, even a hint of face, and after using such a heavy blow, was, he did not receive a huge punishment from the usually strict Elder. All these mysterious incidents caused Xiao Yan to become the hottest topic of conversation within the Inner Academy in a short period of time.
Of course, when they spread the content of the conversation to each other, there were quite a number of students who subconsciously felt respect in their hearts. Forget about discussing why the usually strict Elder would treat Xiao Yan with such courtesy. Just the terrifying fire lotus Xiao Yan, which shocked Lei Na until the latter lost his fighting spirit, was enough to cause them to feel respect towards Xiao Yan. In this ‘Shimmering Heaven Qi Refining Tower’ and even the entire Inner Academy, the strong ones will finally be respected no matter how one puts it. It was also because the terrifying fire lotus that Xiao Yan had displayed caused some of Liu Fei's suitors, who secretly admired him, to not dare look for Xiao Yan to issue a challenge. Otherwise, how could Xiao Yan calmly go on a five-day retreat without anyone daring to come and interrupt him after offending Liu Fei, the little girl who had a great reputation in the Inner Academy?
However, no matter how one put it, the deterrent effect that Xiao Yan needed was indeed something that he managed to achieve!
People came and went in the vast third level. The atmosphere was very lively and there were sometimes one or two battle circles with fierce battles. Many curious people surrounded this battle circle.
When the human flow that came and went passed through certain corridors in the high-class training area, they involuntarily threw their gazes towards the high-class training room at the side where the tag representing someone occupying was hung. These gazes were filled with curiosity and respect. During these few days, almost all of the students who were practicing at the third level knew that/it was this training room was a place where the new student, Xiao Yan, was, who had shocked the four star elite Dou Ling, Lei Na, with a terrifying fire lotus until she lost her fighting spirit, stayed in.
There were also quite a number of people who came after hearing Xiao Yan's name. They wanted to see the appearance of these students. However, since the end of the fight that day, Xiao Yan had not come out after entering that training room. This has caused them a little disappointment. However, the people around could only give up the thought of seeing her. Although an ordinary Dou Zhe or even a Da Dou Shi might need to eat something to fill one's stomach after training for one day, one's level of resistance to hunger would become increasingly stronger following the increase in one's Dou Qi strength. Once one reached the Da Dou Shi class, one might not be able to completely ignore eating food, but when one was in a state of exercise, the body's consumption would reach its lowest point. If one did not consume any food for five days, there would be no serious effects other than one's slightly weaker body.
Therefore, after seeing the tightly shut doors of the training room, the students who came after hearing his name could only leave in disappointment. After all, they did not know how long Xiao Yan's retreat would continue.
”Rattling...”
The sudden sound of the door opening in the corridor attracted several gazes. This is especially the case when they see the number of doors being opened. They immediately became startled and their gazes became much hotter.
The entire noisy corridor suddenly became much quieter. Many gazes were thrown at the open door.
Under the focus of everyone's gazes, the black-robed young man slowly walked out with a calm expression. When he saw the gazes in the corridor thrown at him, he could only knit his brows slightly. He helplessly shook his head, turned around and left this training room. After which, he slowly walked towards the entrance to the fourth level of the ‘ Sky Blazing Distillation Tower Sky.’
After spending nearly seven days of training at the third level, the perfect progress Xiao Yan had obtained in his training had left him feeling stunned. Xiao Yan could sense that/that he had entered the peak seven star Da Dou Shi in just this short seven days time in part because of the help of ‘Pil Spirit Wind Swift, he said,’ the Green Ganoderma Fire Spirit Ointment, ‘and the refining effect of the Heart Flame during this period of time. According to this speed, he might be able to touch the eight-star barrier without much time and break through it in one go.
Xiao Yan felt extremely excited by his progress. However, just as Xiao Yan was planning to continue his training and break through to the eight-star level at once, he was suddenly somewhat stunned to discover that his/her Heart Flame could not keep up. After nearly seven days of Flame Heart and the circulating speed of Dou Qi, Heart Flame of the third level began to be unable to provide a satisfactory supply. Occasionally, it would be choppy, causing Xiao Yan to have no choice but to cut off his training and choose to exit his retreat halfway.
Under the warm gazes of everyone, Xiao Yan slowly disappeared at the end of the corridor. When they saw the path he was taking, the crowd in the corridor involuntarily let out a private conversational sound.
’’He seems intent on heading to the fourth level?’
” Uh, isn't the fourth level a place that the strength of the Dou Ling class must reach in order to enter? Xiao Yan did not seem to be reaching for it properly? ’
’’ Ah .. but who knows. He could even defeat Lei Na. I think he should be able to enter the fourth level, right? ’
Everyone in the corridor faced each other before they immediately laughed bitterly and shook their heads.
Xiao Yan did not hear the private conversation behind him. He walked through the corridor before turning, and saw a path that had instructors strictly guarding it. After hesitating for a moment, he walked quickly.
’’ One must have the strength of a Dou Ling to be able to enter the fourth level. Those whose strength had not yet reached it were forbidden to enter! ” An instructor looked at Xiao Yan who was walking from a distance and spoke lazily.
” Uh? ” Footsteps Xiao Yan stopped. Surprise flashed across his face. Immediately, he smiled bitterly. It was unexpected that/it was a condition to enter the fourth level was a difficult thing. Could it be that he only continued to train at the third level? Just thinking of how the Flame Heart was humbled when faced with the Dou Qi circulating in his body, Xiao Yan could not help but feel a slight headache.
” You ... You are Xiao Yan? ” Just when Xiao Yan felt a headache, another instructor who came for Xiao Yan size suddenly opened his mouth and asked in surprise.
Hearing the surprised voice of his colleague, the instructor who spoke lazily earlier also raised his head in astonishment. He looked at the black-robed young man who came in front of him and saw that somewhat familiar face. Once again, he recalled the instructions from the First Elder and hurriedly said, ” You are Xiao Yan who had a conflict with Lei Na a few days ago? ‘
Xiao Yan was a bit hesitant when he saw the shocked gazes of the two instructors. He nodded slightly before immediately putting his hands together towards the two instructors and said, ” Since this student has yet to meet the requirements, I will continue to train at the third level. I've been bothering you, instructor. ’
”Hei wait!”
Seeing Xiao Yan turn around with the intention to leave, the instructor from before hurriedly stopped him. The latter face was full of smiles as he said, ’Elder He has given instructions to us. If you want to enter the fourth level, we need to do things according to the rules. Because it .. please. ’
Xiao Yan could not help but be surprised when he saw the smiling manner of this instructor. Joy immediately appeared on his face. If he could enter the fourth level to train, break through to eight-star, Da Dou Shi would be around the corner. Immediately, he hurriedly cupped his hands towards the two of them. ” Thank you very much, Elder He and instructor. ’
” To To, there is no harm .. Your level may not reach the requirements, but in terms of strength, you have qualifications. ” The two instructors smiled gently and replied when they saw Xiao Yan's excited face.
” Alright, you need to get down first. I saw that/that you've been doing retreats for a few days. After entering the fourth level, you should eat something. Otherwise, your body cannot withstand this kind of closed-door training. ’
” Thanks for your attention, instructor. ’
Xiao Yan thanked the two of them, cupped his hands together and hurriedly walked into the hallway. After which, he disappeared in the corner with many stunned gazes behind him.
