Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System

A few seconds later, Lu Xinrong's cracked wound solidified once again, and his Qi Blood also recovered significantly.

With those words, he turned around.

Lu Xinrong, carrying his knife, once again charged toward the left door.

From his silhouette, Su Yue saw two words: Fearless.

His mouth dry, heart sour.

Su Yue didn't know what he was feeling.

Before the battle began, Lu Xinrong was already severely injured, yet he managed to hold on for so long purely out of conviction.

Is this the Martial Spirit?

Liao Ji, Zhou Yuncan, and Haoyou had all plunged into the battle.

Su Yue dared not waste any time; he rushed directly to the east door.

"Let me check the situation outside!"

His body flickered and he ran directly outside the door.

"Young man, it's dangerous, come back quickly... This is such an impressive Body Technique!"

The Investigation and Arrest Bureau captain roared angrily.

This is simply chaos! You, a student, will be torn apart the moment you're out.

However, before he finished speaking, he realized he was overthinking it.

Su Yue's steps were light, agile, and remarkably fast; despite the swarm of evil followers surrounding him, he could easily evade them.

"This is Little Lingbo Step. How can high school students be this unbelievably powerful now?"

The captain slashed an evil follower away, dumbstruck.

Su Yue's Body Technique is truly terrifying.

"Damn evil followers, not even a flaw!"

The target collected his thoughts and cursed angrily again, continuing to resist the onslaught.

...

"Instructor Dai isn't in too much danger for now, but he's not getting any advantage either!"

In the corner of the rooftop, Dai Yuegui was engaging in a frenzied fight against a Fourth-Grade evil follower.

Unfortunately, due to the fate ropes, Dai Yuegui and others couldn't leave the cage; restraining the Fourth-Grade Martial Artist was already Dai Yuegui's limit.

The remaining evil followers split into two groups!

One group attacked the east door, the other attacked the west door.

Due to the narrow doors, the evil followers were crowded like a bunch of black rats.

This group truly had limited intelligence, even causing quite a few accidental injuries.

Of course, due to his presence, about twenty evil followers came to attack as well, but this didn't ease the pressure on the two doors.

After realizing they couldn't hit Su Yue, they went to attack the main door again.

Their minds were focused solely on entering the hall, on killing.

While outside the cage, the scene was one of sheer calamity.

Li Xingpei stood on thin air, already conjuring a screen of swords and a hurricane, countless sword gleams slashing like blades in a meat grinder, continuously battering the fate ropes. Su Yue, within the cage, even felt as if he could be shredded by the sword screen at any moment.

He felt like an ant.

"A Grandmaster, truly terrifying!"

Su Yue sighed inwardly.

His most powerful strike was the quality knife, but compared to Li Xingpei's sword gleams, the quality knife was barely a plastic knife.

What a pity.

Despite the sword screen's barrage, the cage remained intact.

The resilience of the fate ropes was simply astounding.

Su Yue examined it briefly.

Every time the ropes faced the sword gleams, several strands would cluster together, rendering the sword gleams helpless.

Like the principle of not being able to break ten chopsticks at once, dozens of fate ropes clustered together can withstand the sword gleams.

At the center of the sky, Fenjiao's hair was disheveled like a specter; she alone controlled the entire cage.

Seeing this old acquaintance, Su Yue gritted his teeth.

A year ago, it was this group that slaughtered his kind, Jiu Mao the Bald died, White Brows died, and Fenjiao was the only one left from that group.

If Fenjiao wasn't so hideous, her suspension in the air would make her seem like an angel.

...

"Li Xingpei, keep slashing. Your subordinates won't hold out for long, keep up the good work!

"Li Xingpei, why so feeble, are you weakened by some pretty boy?

"Li Xingpei, your human men are no good; why not let my Four-armed Race serve you? They'll surely bring you pleasure…haha…"

Fenjiao, manipulating the fate ropes, continuously verbally taunted Li Xingpei.

...

"I'm approximately 27 meters from this beast.

"The limit of Withered Step is 20 meters.

"I have no guarantee with the double sound. Li Xingpei from outside restrains Fenjiao, all her defensive flaws are actually exposed inwardly."

Su Yue looked up, analyzing the battle situation.

Li Xingpei was a Grandmaster, and Fenjiao appeared relaxed but was truly in pain.

Su Yue even saw Fenjiao secretly spitting blood but licking it back with her tongue; the Grandmaster's sword gleams weren't for show.

If Li Xingpei could restrain all the fate ropes, he might be able to use the quality knife to break Fenjiao's life gate.

Her life gate is on the left foot, a tendon above the heel, that's it.

Back when Su Yue was unconscious, this was the conversation between Fenjiao and White Brows, undoubtedly true.

The current situation is already urgent.

Counting on Li Xingpei to break through the cage in a dozen minutes is simply unrealistic.

Yet the two doors on the rooftop can hold out for at most 20 minutes.

The situation in the basement is no better, half an hour at most.

This is absolutely a desperate situation.

Seeing the state of the Fen Jiao, Su Yue already wanted to... capture the king.

Only by killing Fen Jiao can there be a glimmer of victory.

Even if he couldn't kill Fen Jiao himself, he could weaken him, allowing Li Xingpei to attack faster.

The Su Zhi Blade should be able to break through defenses.

But now the biggest problem is the 27 meters high in the air, which has already surpassed his limits.

"Kubu Second Echo, I've only succeeded once, and that time was also luck!"

Su Yue dodged an attack, frowning deeply.

While in Yu Liang City, Su Yue didn't slack off in training the Kubu Step.

But he always remained at the First Echo.

Until one day, he was practicing Kubu Step at midnight, and there were actually two people playing tennis under a streetlamp.

Perhaps the ball went off course, and the tennis ball flew slanted into the sky.

Su Yue finished the First Echo, his body ready to land.

By a stroke of fate, he stepped onto the ball.

It was also a coincidence.

The tennis ball was very powerful, still rising, with a force that pushed upward.

Borrowing this force, he unexpectedly stepped into the long-desired Second Echo.

Of course, the ball shattered.

But afterward, Su Yue tried various things, using leaves, a dagger, and all sorts of things, but couldn't step into the Second Echo.

He even asked Old Zhao and others to play tennis, but all attempts failed.

There's no way; ordinary people simply can't hit that accurately.

Must have the right moment to strike exactly under his foot as he lands—who has that level of skill?

After many attempts, all failed, Old Zhao was almost in tears, just couldn't hit accurately, not even with a First-Grade Martial Artist.

Afterwards, Su Yue completely gave up.

Once he sealed his rank, he would definitely step into the Second Echo, so he temporarily put it aside.

At this moment, Su Yue desperately needed the Second Echo to walk in the air, but he was helpless.

It's only when you need the skills that you regret not having them.

Su Yue suddenly understood the wisdom of the ancients; it was simply life-threatening.

"Damn it, I'm not willing to concede!"

In the center of the sky, Fen Jiao was still humiliating Li Xingpei with harsh words, laughing arrogantly.

Su Yue was so angry his liver hurt, yet was helpless.

Clearly having the opportunity to capture the king, just missing the last little chance.

"What if I try?"

Su Yue took a deep breath.

Dodging two strikes, he took time to pick up two pieces of debris from the ground.

If it doesn't succeed, then it's fate.

"Sky above, bless me just this once!"

Su Yue took a deep breath, his feet burning with Qi Blood.

Swish!

Just at that moment, a piercing hum tore through the sky.

Su Yue looked up.

An arrow!

Yes, an arrow piercing the clouds, thousands of forces... no, an arrow shaft, directly penetrating towards Fen Jiao.

Even though there was a bit of starlight, the sky was still quite dark.

There was even a strong wind blowing in the air.

But the arrow shaft, without a hair's breadth of error, pierced straight under Fen Jiao's foot.

Target: the center of Fen Jiao's left foot.

Unfortunately.

In the end, an arrow is just an arrow.

No need for a lifeline, just the Protective Gang Qi of Fen Jiao directly shattered it.

An arrow shaft cannot break defenses!

"Haha, a bunch of ants, daring to challenge a True God!"

Fen Jiao sneered.

The aim of this arrow was good, but the lethality was a joke.

Outside, Li Xingpei looked unexpectedly inside the birdcage.

The people inside were still resisting, which proved the Martial Artist's family was temporarily safe.

...

"Gong Ling?"

Su Yue looked at the west gate in astonishment.

The person who shot the arrow, was Gong Ling.

"On the first floor, there's a store where you can try bows and arrows. The chief said that the defense of the alien leader is currently weak, told me to try shooting the lifeline, but unfortunately... I couldn't break the defense, I'm too useless!"

Under the protection of Liao Ji and a captain of the Investigation and Arrest Bureau, Gong Ling shot an arrow.

Unfortunately, it was useless.

"Gong Ling, it's dangerous here, let's go back first!"

Others don't have Su Yue's body technique, lingering on the rooftop is courting death.

"Gong Ling, wait..."

Su Yue's pupils suddenly shrank.
