Chapter 335: Improvement, Another Limit
Early the next morning.
The red sun hung high in the sky, with white clouds drifting across the blue sky.
The five-character plaque of the Heavenly Flame Red Tiger Style was suspended above the gray stone pillars at the mountain gate, the gold-lettering on the black background appearing even more radiant under the sunlight.
"This mountain gate is truly impressive."
"Indeed, the Flame Tiger Sect is now the largest sect in the Southern Martial Arts World, such grandeur is naturally incomparable to ordinary sects."
"Come on now, you all boast as if it's something new. The Flame Tiger Sect has always been like this, how come you never praised it before?"
Halfway up the mountain, a gray staircase led directly to the sect's mountain gate.
Many people from the martial arts world, dressed in either ancient long robes or casual sportswear, walked as they raised their heads to gaze at the mountain gate, discussing continuously.
"Before is before, now is now."
"Exactly, we are referring to the grandeur, not the sect's decorations. Don't believe me? Look, this mountain gate sits halfway up the mountain, with clouds in front and forest behind, it truly feels like a fierce tiger crouching, roaring through the mountains and forests."
"That's right, no wonder it produced a Martial Arts Extreme Realm master like Master Chen, and even gave birth to a second grandmaster..."
The voices of discussion continued to rise, and the disciples responsible for guiding the way wore expressions of pride.
Every ten steps or so on the gray staircase stood a long-robed disciple, standing tall and solemn.
Some disciples also welcomed and saw off guests on the open ground of the mountain gate, directing the landing of flying cars to park properly, or were on the other side, close to the road by the cliff, receiving other guests.
For a moment, the sound of the air being sliced through continuously sounded.
More and more flying cars appeared, and there were even various group-branded flying devices landing.
Group directors, association members, renowned figures from the martial arts world, grandmasters of top schools.....
"It's the first time."
Witnessing this scene, Lin Xiaoyun, dressed in a red palace gown, couldn't help sighing while standing at the top of the stone steps, leaning against the mountain gate.
In the past, although the Flame Tiger Sect had visitors, it had never been so concentrated and grand.
"Yes."
"At that time when Chen broke through to grandmaster, we were still amid crisis, never having opened wide the gates to invite fellow practitioners."
"Now, it's really different."
Zhang Guiyuan, dressed in a blue robe with an empty left sleeve, also sighed.
From social neglect to everyone now holding them in awe.
All these changes stemmed from the sect's greatest strength, and also its long-standing greatest fortune.
If not for this, they probably wouldn't have been able to break through to True Intent, nor would the sect leader be achieving grandmaster status.
Just as they were about to continue their sighs.
More and more sect leaders at the True Intent Level appeared, those group directors also clasping their hands in congratulations.
Both of them were busy receiving guests, while other true inheritors, such as Wu Shuang and Zhao Jushan, also joined in the busy process.
Finally, a stout middle-aged man in a vibrant outfit emerged from a flying car, his bold voice booming in laughter.
"Master Li, congratulations!"
As soon as he spoke, an elephant-like call seemed to resonate.
At the same time, a blue flying car landed, resembling a whale flipping its tail.
There were also several people adorned with dark gold patterns, bearing an eagle design, who approached slowly by foot on the steps.
"Master Li, congratulations!"
"Congratulations to Master Li on breaking through to grandmaster!"
Master's Congratulations.
Giant Elephant, Jing Liu, Flying Eagle.
The three major grandmaster schools of the Southern Martial Arts World all had grandmasters present in person, garnering the awe and envy of many in the martial arts world.
Seeing this, Zhang Guiyuan and other true inheritors exchanged a glance, feeling proud as they stepped forward, respectfully greeting.
"Junior meets the three grandmasters."
"Haha, Nephew Zhang, no need for such formality."
"Hmm? We haven't met for some time, I didn't expect Nephew Zhang had already broken through to the True Intent Realm."
Whale Flow Master was somewhat surprised, as the surrounding Giant Elephant and Flying Eagle Masters also reacted, realizing something was amiss.
Flame Tiger Sect having one more grandmaster was one thing, but how had it suddenly broken through to several True Intents?
Curiosity and surprise filled their hearts, and soon they saw the figure in red-striped white robes appear.
"Haha, I didn't expect the three of you to grace us with your presence, I apologize for my distant welcome,"
Li Tong beamed, knowing that such a situation needed his attention.
His grandmaster aura was not deliberately concealed, and when people saw this, they all became alert, their curiosity deepening.
Then, amidst idle chatter.
As if noticing that the Flame Tiger Sect was struggling with the influx of guests.
The three grandmasters of Giant Elephant, Jing Liu, and Flying Eagle exchanged a look, deciding not to rush inside. Instead, they accompanied them with smiles, proactively assisting with welcoming some martial arts world guests.
This gesture made many secretly envious, and it was also witnessed by Chen Feng from the courtyard behind.
"They really are considerate."
Standing by the window, his perception already expanded to cover the mountain gate.
All the fish swimming in the courtyard pond were visible, and the increasing figures and flying cars outside the mountain were unmistakable.
Today was his master's celebration, and it was the first time in a long while that the Flame Tiger Sect had opened its gates wide, he naturally couldn't allow any mistake.
Quickly, confirming everything was in order.
He looked at the panel before him.
[Extreme Martial: 7]
[Jinxuan: 9]
[Thunder: 3]
[Breakthrough: 69]
[Strength: 75.1→75.4]
[Agility: 65.5→65.7]
[Constitution: 77.0]
[Will: 76.1→76.3]
Last night in his dreams, although he was bound by endless Black Tide, he still made significant progress.
"However....my physique is indeed at its limit."
The more he advanced, the clearer Chen Feng felt an invisible shackle binding him.
Like a restriction of rules, causing him a sense of indescribable awkwardness, as if no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.
Shaking his head, he forcefully suppressed this strange feeling.
Chen Feng finally looked at another piece of information on the panel before him.
[Thunder Technique: Entry-level (1%)+]
The three light spheres of Thundering Flow were evidently insufficient to breakthrough to the Thunder level.
But with part of the breakthrough limit used, it certainly would be enough.
