Martial Arts Genius with Proficiency System

"Old...."

Chang Wu looked at the young man's figure, unable to suppress a certain joy on his face. He was about to say something.

But Su Tu just waved his hand and said, "I told you, there's no need to call me a teacher, I'm just here to work."

"Hurry back inside and hide. I never expected someone would actually cause trouble in the Grand Examination, really underestimating our Human Race...."

Su Tu spoke with majestic indifference, a hint of unspeakable evil qi in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Chang Wu nodded repeatedly and ran inside, knowing his own lack of strength and unwilling to burden his teacher.

Today, watching his teacher ascend to the heavens with his own eyes, his heart was overwhelmingly agitated. He knew before that Su Tu was a sponsored prodigy of considerable renown, but he never imagined that he would possess such terrifying heart and spirit talents.

The potential to carve a path in the future mind; one could only wonder how far it could lead. Being Su Tu's student, if only for a short time, was already an immense honor.

But at that moment, doubts lingered in Chang Wu's mind.

The martial artist's strength just now far surpassed his own. If he truly intended to kill, there would be no chance to step out of the room.

Yet instead of making a move, the other party engaged him in conversation.

Something felt off, and Chang Wu was left a bit suspicious.

However, soon he saw the young man's silhouette running outside, and his doubts were quickly suppressed.

"The teacher said they were intruders—how could he be wrong?"

"It must be me overthinking..."

"I understand now, this is a lesson from the teacher: things that are simple and complex are always separated by a line. Simple things can be complex, and complex things can be simple!!"

Chang Wu suddenly clapped his hands, coming to a realization.

Looking in the direction Su Tu left, his eyes were full of little stars.

....

[Teach by precept and example, teacher's awe and dignity, Candle Wisdom +200, Acting +200]

[Candle Wisdom (High Tier): 2200/50000]

[Acting (High Tier): 3420/5000]

The sudden system notification caused Su Tu to pause slightly, as he didn't even know what he had taught by precept and example.

Presumably, it was something Chang Wu had imagined on his own, but it didn't matter. Freely gained skill levels aren't something to be wasted.

However, this time's system prompt also reminded Su Tu of the Acting skill.

This skill had previously triggered a system notification due to its connection with the divine, causing Acting to mutate.

Su Tu had been eagerly anticipating this skill before, but due to being preoccupied recently, he had no time to engage with the Three Deceits Cult, leading to no stable source of skill level for Acting, causing him to neglect this skill.

This time, when the airship incident occurred, Lady She almost scoured the North Sea for any components related to the Three Deceits Cult, forcing the whole cult into a cornered silence that was overly conspicuous.

Even in this Grand Examination, they didn't cause trouble.

His followers' auras were hidden and could not be traced, while Little Eight was safe and sound, but in a bizarre state that Su Tu couldn't communicate with him.

Currently, the Three Deceits Cult is very quiet; Su Tu hopes they remain so indefinitely, until... they completely become his work force.

After advancing Candle Wisdom to High Tier, Xue Yue's manipulations over faith have become more elaborate....

However, what's crucial now isn't the Three Deceits Cult, but rather his own skill levels...

Su Tu's earlier speculation was correct; the first examiner he knocked out was indeed the strongest of this batch, and because of his own carelessness, he was easily dealt with.

As for the other examiners, they provided dual skill levels of five hundred each time...

Originally, Su Tu only intended to 'brush' six instructors to boost Strengthen Body to High Tier, but now it seemed...

"These added together, should be sufficient, right..."

Su Tu looked at the concealed corridor, a smile playing at his lips, and thought whoever dared disrupt the martial exam needed to be dealt with by a Human Race candidate like himself!!

In the next moment, his silhouette vanished into the night...

===

In the office, numerous candidates' information and data appeared on a big screen; their technique usage, reactions to unexpected events, and battlefield performance were all analyzed into simple data matrices.

Each professional Martial Arts Dao analyst was continually archiving these candidates' profiles.

Zhou Dong, as one of the chief examiners, naturally didn't have to handle these affairs personally. He sat at the head seat of the office, looking at the newly arrived reports, his eyes slightly trembling.

This intelligence had been sent by his direct superior, concerning the handling issue of the Divine Sons on the Ancestor Star.

The authority didn't give direct orders but sent a single line.

Futuo Supreme succumbs under one sword...

Unexpectedly, his hypothesis proved true; indeed, a Supreme had fallen, explaining the drastic change in attitude from the foreign race towards him.

The fall of a Supreme isn't a trivial matter, especially at this crucial time, as a Supreme's battle power can decide many things.

Originally, the attitude towards these Divine Sons from the Ancestor Star was equal, treating them like ordinary Human Race examinees, and Zhou Dong still didn't plan to change this.

With the fall of the Seven Great Alliances' Supreme, as the Federation remains an ally of the Seven Great Alliances, attention is bound to heighten; plus, the Seven Race Divine Sons entering the Ancestor Star was already under various races' scrutiny. At such times, any shift in the Human Race's stance could magnify things out of proportion, so unchanging was the best move...

Zhou Dong's lips curled in satisfaction with his decision, feeling somewhat proud.

This Grand Examination was truly a delight, not only witnessing the ascent of a supreme heart and spirit prodigy but gaining favor from the God of Wealth, who spent generously and contributed greatly to have his son directly partake in the final round.

In ordinary times, such dealings would be unrealistic, but given the God of Wealth's monumental contributions to the Human Race, using that to swap for his son's entry into the final round while gifting a favor, Zhou Dong seemed to have struck gold.

Not to mention, usually, there wouldn't be a chance to get close to such figures.

"This Grand Examination must proceed successfully. Once Martial Fortune rises, and Douluo Palace opens, who knows, I might get to partake in the benefits!!"

Zhou Dong thought excitedly.

And yet, at this moment...

"Something bad has happened!! Something bad has happened!!"

"The chief examiner is in trouble; all examiners on the ninth floor have lost contact, and the examination recorders haven't relayed information back!"

A staff member spoke anxiously.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Dong's expression immediately changed, and without waiting for anyone else's reactions, he transformed into a stream of light and dashed out.

The ninth level is where the top fifty students of a round of examinations are located, not only does it include prodigies like Su Tu and Mu Wuyang, but also top-tier second-generation elites like Chang Wu. If something were to go wrong, it wouldn't just be his career, even his life would be at risk.

The surprise examiners of the ninth level each possess the strength of Falling Leaves, with Li Deng at the helm having touched the edge of seeing the source, already beginning to merge body with true intent. They head to the ninth level, enough to handle any unexpected situations.

"Could it be... they have a problem!!"

Zhou Dong's mind raced with thoughts, even envisioning the worst scenario. For the sake of caution, he did not summon the guardian martial artists but chose to inspect personally, fearing it might be a mere misunderstanding.

Moreover, even if there is indeed a problem, he would be capable of resolving it, such is the confidence of a Fifth Realm powerhouse.

On Ancestor Star, where cultivation is suppressed, the Fifth Realm is already enough to walk unhindered, even able to rival those powerhouses who suppress their cultivation with special items entering Ancestor Star!

====

A martial artist lay powerlessly on the ground, unable to comprehend why a student would possess such terrifying strength. He didn't even have a chance to display the True Intent of Martial Arts before being crushed by pure physical power.

[You defeated the examination examiner, Celestial Martial Proficiency +500, Combat Body Proficiency +500]

[Combat Body (High Tier): 200/50000]

[Celestial Martial (Middle Tier): 13500/21300]

With the collapse of this examiner, the entire ninth level fell silent, and the Combat Body advanced to the high tier.

Swish, swish, swish~

Swish~

In the instant the Combat Body entered the high tier, Su Tu could almost hear his blood churning, hear the sound of his muscles growing within. Externally, Su Tu's appearance seemed unchanged.

But upon close inspection, one would notice menacing veins faintly emerging on his skin, as if an evil dragon was trying to break free.

This was a manifestation of muscles constantly growing outward, yet forcibly compacted and merged together.

In the moment the Combat Body entered the high tier, it was as if the muscles within him gained life, undergoing continuous renewal and growth, with muscles devouring each other.

The new muscles formed through merging possessed unimaginable strength.

The high tier Combat Body not only enhanced Su Tu's strength but also amplified his blood vitality. Simply standing there, he emanated an overwhelming ferocity akin to a peerless fiend from the wilderness!!

His toes merely tapped the ground lightly.

Crunch, crunch, crunch!!

In the next moment, waves of air erupted from the floor, cracks spreading spiderweb-like across the entire floor from the point of his toe.

This wasn't Su Tu deliberately demonstrating his strength.

It was because, at this moment, with the Combat Body entering high tier, a surge of violent emotion unexpectedly rose in Su Tu's heart, a rage from the sudden rise of power with no outlet!

If not for Su Tu's extremely strong mind, the abrupt surge of violence, once unleashed, even he wouldn't know what he might do.

"Damn... I thought advancing Combat Body to high tier would give me a surprise..."

"But instead, you give me this, huh..."

Su Tu couldn't help but complain, forcibly suppressing the urge to destroy everything, attempting to form the Heaven-Flipping Seal gesture with his hands to calm his mind.

But the next moment...

Su Tu seemed to sense something, his eyes involuntarily glanced toward a corner outside the window, his mouth curled up into a wanton smile.

The punching bag came!!!

Zhou Dong couldn't wait to ascend layer by layer, choosing instead to directly ascend into the air. However, before he even entered the ninth level...

Boom!!!

A figure, emanating overwhelming blood vitality, suddenly shot out, the scorching blood vitality sending a tremor through his heart.

"Monster!!"

A thought suddenly surfaced within his mind, the next moment, a fist already struck down fiercely, the peerless fist light with raging power fell mercilessly.

Zhou Dong's figure flickered in an instant, raising his hand as Netherworld Frost emerged, Frost Killing Heaven and Earth transformed into a void ice wall to block the terrifying punch.

Attempting to stop that horrific punch.

"Qianmo Luo·Full City Frost Flowers!"

Then, in mid-air, a frost flower vaguely emerged, beautiful and flawless, crystal clear, but behind that beauty lay endless murder.

Countless frost flowers fell, engulfing everything around.

Crack!!

Rumble!!

Yet before the frost flowers could fall, the ice wall raised by Zhou Dong, trembled violently, and then the entire wall directly collapsed.

Terror-filled fist light wrapped in brilliant gold and eerie red attacked, the sound of air explosions burst forth, all indicating the power of this punch.

Zhou Dong's expression chilled, making a sword gesture with his hand, lightly pointing, instantly causing countless frost flowers to explode, transforming into a chilling ice dragon, roaring and sweeping forward.

However, just then, Zhou Dong heard a hoarse low roar explode.

"Who dares interfere with the Federation's exam for the Human Race!!"

"Looking for death!!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Dong's entire expression froze.

"Huh? ??"

No, those are my lines he's saying! Reversed Celestial Spirit!

But it wasn't a time for grumbling, as the voice was all too familiar to him, it was the voice of the round leader Su Tu!!

Zhou Dong's expression changed drastically, the attacking figure, fists bright and blood vitality sky-high, was evidently a formidable foe, he instinctively thought it was an enemy attack, responding with full force.

He never thought, never for a moment imagined, that the attacker was Su Tu.

Now he couldn't even withdraw his hand!!

"It's over...." Zhou Dong's face turned pale.

If anything happened to Su Tu, never mind the Federation's stance, even his mentor wouldn't spare him, the alliance might punish but could perhaps keep him alive, but considering the behavior of Su Tu's sect...

He predicted even his family's worms would be sliced vertically...
