High-Level Martial Era

"Wait till I get there, I want to see the face-slapping." An abundance of messages began spreading immediately across various institute groups.

Many new students started hurrying over from their villas, wanting to catch the excitement.

Others who were reluctant to go out also instinctively followed the rankings and group messages.

...Inside a villa belonging to a student of the Seventh Institute.

Underground Martial Arts Room.

A handsome youth holding a sword and shield was silently practicing in the Martial Arts Room.

Wu Luo!

At the Jiangbei Martial University\'s invitation event, although he was defeated by Li Yuan in the cage brawl, he performed well in the Combat Assessment and broke into the top ten.

Eventually, Kunlun Martial University used another of their S-grade special training contracts to sign him.

Wu Luo did not disappoint, ranking eighth in martial arts scores in Jiangbei Province in the college entrance exam.

This achievement was barely enough to qualify for the top three global premier martial schools.

"If I went to Starry Sky University, I\'d be the least noticeable one, the bottom class, with no one valuing me," Wu Luo silently practiced his Sword Technique: "But at Kunlun Martial University, I am among the top-tier talents, able to receive the most cultivation resources."

"The odds of achieving great success are even higher!"

"Moreover, after the college entrance exam, I managed to break through to Unity of Mind and Body, and my Sword Technique has just stepped into the Fourth Level." Wu Luo thought to himself: "Among the two thousand freshmen, aside from that Yang Hong, no one else is my match."

Wu Luo had his own considerations.

He was well aware that compared to geniuses like Tian Dazhuang and Wu Dongdong, he was slightly inferior and would struggle to rise rapidly at Starry Sky University.

"Yang Hong."

"Just you wait." Wu Luo\'s eyes were resolute: "When it comes to Physical Quality, you\'re not my match. By the end of July\'s Combat Assessment, I will definitely be stronger than you."

Suddenly.

"Beep~" The assistant AI sounded an alert: "Master, an important person has sent a message, with the remark \'new student Yang Hong\'."

"Yang Hong?" Wu Luo was slightly surprised as he spoke in a low tone: "Answer."

Whoosh~ A beam of light shot out, and a hologram formed, displaying a burly man holding a large axe, who seemed to have also been practicing just now.

"Yang Hong, what\'s up?" Wu Luo said indifferently.

"Have you seen the ranking for the entrance competition?" the burly youth asked in a low voice.

"No." Wu Luo frowned.

He typically did not take calls during his practice time, and since it had only been a few days since entering school, there were only a few in the Seventh Institute who knew his communicator number.

Thus, even after ten minutes had passed, no one could contact him.

"Someone has surpassed both your score and mine," the burly youth said somberly.

"What, surpassed? Are there any other Fourth Level Martial Arts Skill masters among the freshmen? Who?" A hint of shock flashed through Wu Luo\'s eyes.

"From what I\'ve heard from other students, you should be quite familiar with this person," the burly youth\'s face showed a trace of puzzling meaning.

"Someone I\'m familiar with?" Wu Luo grew even more confused.

"Li Yuan!" The burly youth almost seemed to smile as he uttered the two words.

Boom!

Those two words, like a thunderclap, caused Wu Luo to widen his eyes in disbelief.

That monster, Li Yuan, came to Kunlun Martial University?

...After ending the call with Yang Hong, Wu Luo immediately walked over to pick up his smart bracelet and swiftly tapped on the \'Kunlun Martial University\' app to check the rankings.

Kunlun Nine Mountains Individual Rankings (Freshmen):

First place: Li Yuan (586 points)

Second place: Yang Hong (399 points)

Third place: Wu Luo (329 points)

Fourth place: Han Hongjun (288 points)

...

"588, 591." Wu Luo watched as the numbers beside Li Yuan\'s name on the hologram quickly jumped.

In the blink of an eye, they had soared past 600 points.

What did this indicate?

Li Yuan had hardly faced any significant resistance, sweeping through all his opponents with ease.

Wu Luo, who had also reached over three hundred points, knew all too well the strength of the opponents Li Yuan was facing.

"Li Yuan?"

Wu Luo muttered to himself, his eyes revealing a touch of unwillingness: "Could it be that after several months, though I finally made a breakthrough to the Fourth Level, the gap between us hasn\'t narrowed, but has in fact grown even wider?"

He stared intently at the hologram.

"A thousand points."

"You can\'t possibly break through a thousand points and directly enter the Fifth Mountain, can you?" Wu Luo thought silently.

...

In the virtual network, within a space affiliated with Kunlun Martial Arts University.

Some extremely mysterious and special areas, enveloped in mists, vast and boundless, stood nine tall mountains.

The Kunlun Nine Mountains, with each peak taller than the last, the highest peak reaching into the clouds.

Fourth Mountain, on the spacious mountain path.

At this moment, blood had already flowed like a river, and one after another the bodies of Star Realm Creatures, resembling wolves with their silvery bodies, lay in pools of blood.

A handsome young man holding a long spear moved along the mountain path with a subdued expression, unfazed by the bloodshed.

The spear flickered, like lightning.

With each thrust of his weapon, another Star Realm Creature fell, symbolizing death.

Li Yuan\'s points were skyrocketing.

"This challenge of Kunlun Nine Mountains is easier than I thought, I breezed through to the Fourth Mountain," Li Yuan even had the energy to observe his surroundings.

In Kunlun Nine Mountains, one can freely choose their Physical Quality level, and by killing off all opponents on each mountain, you can pass.

Li Yuan had chosen the Physical Quality level of 10.0, and so far, the opponents that had appeared were at level 9.0, including all types of Star Realm Creatures.

The further one went, the higher the skill level of the opponents encountered.

"Roar~"

Suddenly, a low growl resounded, and an enormous silver wolf king emerged, darting towards Li Yuan with noticeably faster speed and strength.

"Finally, it\'s here."

"Is this the part where you clear the minions and the final boss shows up? After getting rid of the boss, should this level be considered passed?" Li Yuan grinned and advanced to meet the challenge.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The spear\'s shadow shifted unpredictably as Li Yuan instantly unleashed \'Twelve Continuous Strikes\' in an attempt to kill the silver wolf king outright.

"Clang!"

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" The wolf\'s claws changed as if they were made of metal, effortlessly blocking Li Yuan\'s rapid spear strikes.

"So fast!"

"Worthy of being the boss." Li Yuan\'s eyes lit up. After nearly twenty minutes storming through the Kunlun Nine Mountains, he finally found an opponent worth fighting.

This silver wolf king, in terms of Physical Quality, was even inferior to the Moon Demon Wolf King that Li Yuan had faced in the past.

But its skills were extraordinarily adept.

"It must have achieved Unity, a threshold skill of the Fourth Level," Li Yuan instantly judged, "Its Physical Quality should be around level 11."

In terms of skills, Li Yuan was stronger!

In terms of Physical Quality, the silver wolf king was stronger.

Who would have the last laugh?

"Kill!" Li Yuan finally stopped holding back, his spear transformed into a blur, instantly wiping out the last three common silver wolves, and pounced on the silver wolf king like lightning.

...

In the building of Xuanwu Tower, the venue was now filled with over nine hundred students.

It wasn\'t just freshmen, there were quite a few sophomores and even juniors who had come to join in the excitement.

The venue was very quiet.

Almost everyone\'s gaze was fixed on two huge screens in the distance, displaying the rankings:

Kunlun Nine Mountains Individual Ranking (Freshmen):

First place: Li Yuan (700 points)

Second place: Yang Hong (399 points)

Third place: Wu Luo (329 points)

Fourth place: Han Hongjun (288 points)

...

Sixth Institute Admission Competition (Institute):

First place: Third Institute (6563 points)

Second place: Sixth Institute (6467 points)

Third place: Seventh Institute (6043 points)

Fourth place: Fifth Institute (5956 points)

...

"Seven hundred points already."

"Sixth Institute has already surged to second place."

"This Li Yuan is too formidable, his Martial Arts Skills are so much stronger than Yang Hong and Wu Luo?" Freshmen from other institutes were rather shocked.

Almost all freshmen had tried the Kunlun Nine Mountains challenge, but most couldn\'t get past the first mountain. Managing to obtain 30 points and enter the second mountain was already considered good.

Li Yuan? He alone had scored a whopping 700 points!!

And he hadn\'t stopped yet, he was still progressing.

"Senior brother is still as fierce,"

"Senior brother seems much stronger than when he was in the Jiangbei Invitational event,"

"Amazing, our Sixth Institute has already reached second place," An Nong, Dong Haifeng, and other students from Jiangbei Province expressed a mix of admiration and shock.

There were many freshmen from Jiangbei at Kunlun Martial University, over three hundred.

Most had witnessed Li Yuan\'s battles.

They felt that Li Yuan was even more formidable than before.

At this moment, there was only one thought in the minds of most freshmen in the venue.

Could Li Yuan truly lead the Sixth Institute to take first place directly?
