Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System

"Biyou Palace!!"

Seeing the three characters on the scroll, an excited gleam instantly erupted in Su Tu's eyes. He was all too familiar with these three characters.

Biyou Palace, the legendary site of the Jie Sect, the Dao Field of the Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader, renowned as the place where all gods worship and myriad immortals converge!

Who would have thought that the souvenir Zhao Budian left him would be such a grand gift.

At this moment, the mysterious scroll flickered with starlight, shaking with unspeakable power, and finally exploded into specks of starlight, transforming into a complete star map.

Su Tu looked at the star map, feeling a sense, reached out his hand, and the Immortal Power slowly surged within it. Instantly, the star map sensed the summoning of the Immortal Power and directly fell into Su Tu's hand.

"Could it be that this map records the location of Biyou Palace?"

Su Tu examined the star map, with an inexplicable excitement in his eyes.

Biyou Palace is said to possess limitless Immortal Techniques and countless Secret Techniques, with three thousand arts for ascending immortality and three hundred ways for eternal longevity. Even obtaining half a scroll of techniques from it presents unimaginable opportunities!

The star map guides the location of relics, akin to how the Douluo Palace, which shaped the current state of the Ancestor Star, attracted the attention of all races through a star map that illuminated the heavens.

And at this moment, the star map in Su Tu's hand, in terms of value, is not inferior to Douluo Palace, and perhaps... even surpasses it.

After all, Douluo Palace was merely the place where Laojun practiced Alchemy and Qi Cultivation, not his true Dao Field, whereas Biyou Palace was the place where the Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader preached the Dao.

"Great opportunity, yet a threat to life."

Su Tu murmured softly.

This star map of Biyou Palace holds unfathomable opportunities and benefits, but also carries terrifying dangers and lethal traps.

Just one star map of Douluo Palace already causes turmoil across the Ancestor Star. If people knew he held this star map...

It's likely that even a Daoist Master, or those above, would make a move on him.

Su Tu understood the principle of "the innocent holds a treasure and incurs guilt."

As he was pondering this, the star map seemed to gain a spiritual nature, sensing Su Tu's thoughts, and one could see streams of starlight continually flashing and spiraling on it.

And then....

Suddenly~

That star map, in Su Tu's hand, turned into a misty aura and directly integrated into his Immortal Power.

At the same time.

In Su Tu's mind, a magnificent star map emerged; it was precisely the Biyou Palace star map. With just a thought, the star map could manifest in his mind.

This miraculous scene left Su Tu somewhat in awe.

And it also sparked some conjectures within him.

"The stone tablets transformed into a star map upon sensing Immortal Power, and Biyou Palace's star map dissolves with the Immortal Power, indicating that the Immortal Power is not only capable of activating Ancient Skills."

If Su Tu hadn't mastered Immortal Power, the stone tablets would have remained mere tablets and wouldn't manifest a star map, with Immortal Power being like a key.

Also like a contingency left by the Immortals and gods....

At this moment, Su Tu suddenly had the feeling that those Immortals and gods who vanished into history didn't simply disappear.

But he didn't dwell further on it; now that he had mastered Immortal Power, he possessed a candle to dispel the fog, just needing to proceed step by step, and all those past secrets would naturally become clear to him.

As a top student, he knew one thing very well: getting lost in thought is the last thing you want when solving problems.

He quickly refocused his attention on the Biyou Palace star map.

Each shining star was linked together, forming a star map.

At a glance, Su Tu noticed a deep blue planet on the star map. That was the Ancestor Star, and not far from it, a planet flickered with light and shadow, emitting a guiding aura from its surface.

Su Tu immediately recognized the planet, not only because of his near-perfect knowledge in astronomical studies but more so because the name of that planet was....

"Celestial City Star!!!"

That's the location of the academy Su Tu aimed for, and also where the Chen Family resided. It's hard to deny how coincidental this all was.

"Truth is stranger than fiction indeed."

"Who would have thought Biyou Palace's relics were on Celestial City Star... I always believed all relics were on the Ancestor Star."

Previously, Su Tu always assumed that these relics of Immortals and gods were all on the Ancestor Star, but the appearance of the Biyou Palace star map broke his previous understanding.

Since the relic is on Celestial City Star, things are easier.

Both the academy he wants to attend and the quest for the mystery of the Immortal Robe at the Chen Family require going to Celestial City Star, and now there's an added relic of Biyou Palace.

However, there's no rush now; Su Tu understood the principle of not rushing things.

The Biyou Palace relic is of immense significance, and one must plan carefully!

With that thought, Su Tu set aside the excitement in his heart and calmed himself for a moment.

Then, he took out the Divine Techniques he exchanged with Zhao Budian earlier from his backpack.

Tier Five Divine Technique, One Leaf Confuses the Heart.

This is a Divine Technique of Heart and Spirit, not merely a simple combative Divine Technique.

"Transform leaves into self, use self to slay enemies, interesting!"

Reading the various descriptions of the Divine Technique on the booklet, Su Tu couldn't help but find it intriguing. This Divine Technique teaches the use of the power of Heart and Spirit to outline sky leaves, transforming them into oneself to engage in combat with the adversary.

It's very suitable for large-scale warfare.

Following the cultivation methods in the Divine Technique, Su Tu began experimenting with constructing sky leaves using his Heart and Spirit. A Tier Five Divine Technique is a Tier Five Divine Technique; entry-level is just a bit slower.

Su Tu spent a full five minutes to sketch out the first Qiongye leaf.

Subsequently, as his heart thought descended, a Qiongye leaf slowly fell, revealing a figure identical to Su Tu suddenly appearing in the room.

Su Tu watched this Qiongye transformation with great interest, initially curious as to why this divine ability, similar to a clone, was named Confuse the Heart.

Now he understood.

"The 'me' that the Qiongye leaf transforms into does not entirely exist in reality but hovers between reality and the heart and spirit. In other words, Qiongye not only engages the physical body in combat but also simultaneously attacks the enemy's heart and spirit."

Su Tu was quite satisfied with this divine ability. One Leaf Confuses the Heart not only has solid offensive capabilities but also disrupts the enemy's perception.

Even Su Tu felt a moment of disorientation between reality and his heart and spirit when he first saw the Qiongye.

This divine ability requires one Qiongye leaf for entry-level, ten leaves for modest success, and a hundred leaves for observing the micro.

Su Tu condensed the first nine Qiongye leaves relatively quickly, but the tenth posed a slight challenge, taking him a full half hour to complete.

[You have cultivated One Leaf Confuses the Heart for an hour, Candle Wisdom Proficiency +50]

[Candle Wisdom (Initial Tier): 200/10000]

Moreover, during these few days of cultivation, Su Tu successfully advanced Spiritual Wisdom to Candle Wisdom. However, unlike the powerful transformation that other skills brought upon advancement, Candle Wisdom brought no new effects, merely enhancing Su Tu's Heart and Spirit attributes by a tiny 'billionth'.

At this moment, his heart and spirit were nearly exhausted.

Just as Su Tu was about to take a rest.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated, indicating a message from Zhao Budian.

"Master, the construction of Qiongye is very challenging, with high demands on strength and precision of the heart and spirit."

"Master, don't rush. Patiently cultivate. This divine ability is indeed very powerful."

Looking at Zhao Budian's message, Su Tu nodded in agreement.

Indeed, this divine ability was somewhat difficult, taking him more than an hour to barely reach the modest success stage.

He replied to the message:

I just woke up: "Indeed, it's a bit difficult."

I just woke up: "It took over an hour to barely reach modest success."

Shocking Great Grass: "I previously attempted to construct it, but unfortunately, my aptitude for heart and spirit is average. I spent a month without success."

Their messages were sent at the same time.

At this moment, as Zhao Budian was walking on the road, he looked at the message in his hand and felt his whole body stiffen.

In disbelief, he rubbed his eyes, looked at the message on his phone again, and then rubbed his eyes again, repeating this cycle several times.

"What kind of monster is this!!"

"I couldn't construct a single Qiongye leaf in a month, and he achieved modest success in an hour??"

"He must be joking with me, for sure, he's definitely joking!!"

"Definitely... joking, my ass!!"

Zhao Budian could not deceive himself; Su Tu's impact on him was too strong. He knew well that Su Tu was not someone who liked to joke, but he couldn't accept that the other not only crushed his Martial Arts cultivation but also reached such high heart and spirit attributes.

Are they really from the same dimension?

Zhao Budian opened the group chat [You Are Not a Prodigy, You Don't Understand]

Shocking Great Grass: "@Martial Arts Peak, now I understand what you meant then..."

Martial Arts Peak: "????? What, did you battle with [Emperor]? Mental breakdown?"

Shocking Great Grass: "I'm not broken, I'm freaking shattered!!!!"

Dongdong: "Holy crap, is [Emperor] that fierce??"

Scrambled Eggs: "Did you lose? By how many points??"

Shocking Great Grass: "We were even at fifty-five, but in five minutes, I shattered into five pieces...."

After Zhao Budian typed this sentence, the entire group chat suddenly fell silent.

Although everyone in the group played around with abstracts daily, they were all top fifty prodigies in the initial rankings, with victories and defeats mostly matched except for the top ten and this monstrous peak.

However, now, the title of [Emperor] could make Zhao Budian say such words, how terrifyingly powerful must he be!!

For a moment, no one in the group played with abstracts anymore; the whole group fell silent.

For no other reason, they all put down their phones and stopped chatting, initiating their cultivation. With a monster like this suddenly appearing, they had no choice but to work hard!!!

Su Tu initially wanted to say something in the group chat.

But seeing how quiet the group was, he chose not to send a message and decided to get up and freshen up.

Ding dong! Ding dong!

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"A package delivery or something else?"

Su Tu thought to himself and then got up and walked towards the door. As he opened it, he saw a familiar figure standing at his doorstep.

"Xi Brother, why are you here?"

The visitor was Su Tu's childhood friend and desk mate, Chen Xi.
