Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System

Chapter 116: Chen Yuan: I’ve Become a Clown!



Su Tu suddenly swung his fist, and as the punch landed, the force split into seven paths, exploding with supreme power, knocking out two martial artists who were about to rush the gate.

The space before him was empty; no one dared to step forward.

This was his first real battle with ordinary martial artists, and he clearly felt a huge difference.

These martial artists from small families lacked sufficient refinement of their basic skills, causing their Qi to be unclean as it circulated throughout their bodies, with flaws all over their techniques.

In Su Tu's eyes, these martial artists were just 'ordinary people' who had grasped Qi.

They couldn't even be called martial artists.

This strange feeling left Su Tu a little dazed, recalling the martial artists he had fought before.

Both Luo Fan and Xiong Laile were far stronger than these people, even Li Chang, who he had knocked out with one kick, was a bit stronger than these martial artists.

In truth, that's exactly how martial artists' cultivation is, mind-body techniques differ vastly even with slight differences.

His classmates were considered geniuses in the eyes of ordinary people.

Whether it's Luo Fan, Tang Yangwu, or even the chubby Zhuge, they could all grasp the key points of techniques and cultivate their basic skills to the limit.

In Su Tu's view, these were essentials for martial arts cultivation, but in the eyes of normal people, even touching on one or two aspects was extremely difficult.

For the first time, Su Tu realized that his starting point was already far higher than many ordinary martial artists.

From the day he entered the path of martial arts, he was already standing on the back of geniuses!

The martial artists lying before Su Tu grew more numerous, forming a small mountain.

Those originally charging like a tide had all stopped.

Seeing Su Tu blocking the door, they looked at him as if he were some kind of monster, the red in their eyes quietly receding.

At this moment, Luo Fan and others were panting, but still stood around Su Tu; these martial artists posed little threat to them.

One-on-one, these people couldn't even withstand three moves from the chubby Zhuge, let alone Luo Fan or Su Tu.

However, with so many martial artists charging, Luo Fan's Qi was almost entirely depleted, and the weaker Baru had nothing left.

But Su Tu still looked vigorous and lively, blood dripping from his fists, his eyes sparkling intensely, scanning the crowd without anyone daring to meet his gaze.

"If you dare not come forward, please step back!"

Beside him lay the martial artists he had knocked out, piled into a small mountain.

"That guy's a bit too monstrous..."

"Old Zhou's seventh student is something else..."

"I guess they don't dare charge Tayue's gate anymore; Su Tu broke their spirits completely. They might aim for our gate instead; should we defend?"

Near Su Tu and the others, a few guardian students whispered as they faced another gate.

They hesitated a little.

Not everyone was like the crazy bunch from the Tayue Martial Arts Hall, able to confront hundreds of martial artists hungrily.

After all, they were just a group of eighteen or nineteen-year-olds.

Most martial artists had charged at Su Tu, leaving other guardian students to deal with only dozens of martial artists, which was manageable, but thinking about the onslaught Su Tu and others faced made them nervous.

Now, the martial artists blocked at the door looked at each other, feeling absurd and shocked.

To learn the Martial Arts Dao, they'd gone through much hardship and training, tearing their bones apart day and night through basic skills and techniques.

They finally welcomed the Federation's support for martial arts, believing they had the chance to achieve something and justify their efforts over the years.

But at this moment, they were barred outside the gate by one young figure.

To be able to cultivate martial arts, to tread the path, was a rare feat, making them prodigies and geniuses in the eyes of ordinary people.

Yet.....

Compared to this figure, they felt utterly powerless and desolate.

Several martial artists couldn't help but think of a popular saying online.

Those who ascended with great hardships eventually became the 100,000 celestial soldiers besieging the Great Sage Equal to Heaven....

The slightest hint of retreat rose up, and no one stepped forward.

Chen Yuan watched this scene, strangely feeling relieved.

The earlier madness of those students made him anxious; the assessment couldn't be stopped, and if something went wrong, his life would be on the line.

Someone was plotting against him!

Putting Su Tu's matter aside, his family cousin would soon arrive on the Ancestor Star; let his cousin take care of Su Tu in the training camp.

Though less satisfying than taking revenge personally, it was still better.

It was better than getting caught in someone else's trap because he tried to deal with Su Tu now.

He didn't know who was plotting, so he couldn't act rashly; he dared not easily use tactics against Su Tu for fear of getting caught...

At this time, the chubby Zhuge's Qi had somewhat recovered. He straightened up and walked to Su Tu, speaking in a low voice.

"Little Tu, these guys aren't right!"

"According to the teacher, their basic skills are shallow, techniques unrefined, and minds unsettled. Although they've opened their senses, in the eyes of a true martial artist, they're just dabbling."

"The North Sea has many old families; I've met their descendants. Liu Mang is considered the worst among them, yet none of them showed up."

"Something's up in here!"

The chubby Zhuge spoke, and his usually smiling face turned expressionless, with a sharp gleam in his eyes.

The name Zhuge bears significant weight.

So much so that when the chubby Zhuge shed his carefree demeanor and became serious, Su Tu started earnestly considering his words.

Something is indeed wrong!

This first assessment seemed too hasty, like a set of rules Chen Yuan randomly came up with.

This is the first training camp on the Ancestor Star; would they really allow such reckless behavior?

Su Tu thought so.

Suddenly!!

He felt a twinge in his heart, as if he had caught onto something faintly.

It was a very intense and powerful force of the heart and spirit, crossing the entire Martial Arts Department.

"This is...."

Su Tu saw the fleeting terrifying mask and a guess arose in his heart.

At the same time, the system's notification suddenly sounded.

[You have gone through a trial of the heart and spirit, Spiritual Wisdom Proficiency +300!!]

[Spiritual Wisdom (High Tier): 2020/5000]

"So that's how it is..."

"This training camp is really interesting, starting off with tricks.."

The prompt before him confirmed what Su Tu had in mind earlier.

Everyone present, including Chen Yuan, had fallen into a huge illusion realm of the heart and soul.

Everything that just happened was an illusion created by a powerful Psychic.

The moment this thought surfaced in Su Tu's mind.

His Heart and Spirit seemed to find a gap, and Su Tu unconsciously looked up at the rooftop of the Martial Arts Department behind him.

As if breaking through layers of space and staring at some existence.

At the highest point of the Martial Arts Department, Lin Feiyang's lips curled up.

"Oh my~ looks like it's been discovered, as expected of my student, to perceive so quickly..."

"Although all of this is fake, the insights you gained from combat were real, you absolutely didn't see through it earlier, the Heart and Spirit reflects the physical body, as if you've truly experienced a battle.

Your physical body should have strengthened because of it..."

"Did I guess wrong?"

"Can't you level up through battle?"

Lin Feiyang rubbed his chin, talking to himself.

Meanwhile, Bai Shuang, after hearing his mumble, his face turned dark.

"Damn!!! Lin lunatic, you even trapped me!"

He snorted coldly.

The next moment.

Wuu wuu wuu~

Cries and howls echoed from all directions, eerie winds sweeping, a hundred ghosts wailing.

Ka-cha~

Ka-cha-cha~

Everything around began to exhibit cracks like that of a mirror.

"What's happening??"

"Damn!! What's going on!!"

The Martial Artists looked at the cracks around them, each shocked.

They couldn't understand what was happening at this moment.

Fat Zhuge and others also cautiously scanned their surroundings.

"A beast? Or something else, daring to cause trouble at the Martial Arts Department!!" Baru said angrily.

Su Tu patted his shoulder, speaking calmly.

"It's nothing, just a dream that's about to wake up."

As Su Tu's words fell.

Boom!!!

Crash!!!

Everything around shattered like a mirror, as if the entire world collapsed at that moment.

Everyone felt a blur before their eyes.

The next moment, everything changed...

In front of the Martial Arts Department, Martial Artists quietly lining up, staff maintaining order.

Guardians were still standing at various entrances, Chen Yuan had just descended from mid-air, a proud expression on his face, as if to announce something.

Time seemed to have rewound at that moment.

The Martial Artists looked around in bewilderment, no mountain of bodies created by Su Tu, no traces of slaughter.

"What's happening..." Tang Yangwu frowned and spoke.

Su Tu remained silent, instead he pointed a finger at his own forehead.

Watching Su Tu's gesture, Tang Yangwu and others immediately understood.

The Heart and Spirit!!

Everything that just happened was someone using Divine Techniques to immerse them in a Heart and Soul Illusion Dream.

Chen Yuan's expression was grim, he apparently figured out what he had experienced, all his imagined scenarios were wrong, the strong act casually, the weak must ponder a thousand times.

Everything just now was fake.

He was completely played, all that about controlling the first round of assessment, letting him take charge.

All fake!!!

Thinking back to how proud he looked earlier, he felt his face burning, as if being slapped.

His previous actions were no different from celebrating in the middle of a game!

No wonder his ridiculous suggestions were accepted, it was all just playing him!

""Hahahahaha, I was just playing a little joke with you all."

"Heart and Soul Illusion Dream, a small Divine Technique."

"Yet everything in the dream corresponded to reality, your combat performance inside was exactly as in reality."

An unrestrained voice echoed in everyone's ears.

Everyone looked up, only to see a man who appeared to be in his early thirties sitting on the stairs at the entrance of the Martial Arts Department, holding a bowl of cold noodles, eating heartily.

"You, the future stars of the Federation, the enemies you'll face in the Training Camp are just like these Guardian students, some might even be more terrifying."

"They're not soft-hearted, knocking people out just won't do, the Training Camp has a quota for deaths.."

"I am pleased you're willing to join the Training Camp, but whether you can bear its consequences requires careful consideration. If you still wish to enter, sign the life-and-death contract in the Martial Arts Department. If not, then the Martial Arts Department will provide you all with a nutrient liquid."

The man continued to eat his noodles, yet his voice oddly echoed.

Upon hearing his words, the Martial Artists fell into contemplation, Su Tu's fists had already shattered their vigor, and such monsters are apparently everywhere in the Training Camp...

What's the point of joining the Training Camp??

To die?

""After so much hard training, I still don't want to be trampled like dirt." A Martial Artist shook his head and chuckled bitterly, unwilling to undergo the experience again after his heart had gone through it once.

He turned to leave the Martial Arts Department, like the first drop breaking the dam.

Eventually, the Martial Artists began to scatter like birds and beasts, those still willing to try, those signing up for Entry Level, dwindled to less than a hundred.

""Such a wild approach, unknowingly casting an illusion realm, making these ordinary applicants see the gap in power and withdraw voluntarily."

"The most sickening part is, they told us beforehand that cooperation was needed for the assessment, meaning his actions earlier were completely legitimate."

"Who is this guy!" Fat Zhuge grumbled angrily.

Su Tu glanced at the figure sitting on the stairs eating noodles and peeling garlic, smiled helplessly, and said.

"He's called Lin Feiyang."

"My physical education teacher."
