With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal

The three of them are education leaders deeply rooted in their fields, and student performance is naturally the most important "highlight".

Not only because it coincides with the 88th anniversary of the school celebration, which is of great significance.

But also because two young martial artists have emerged at Northern United University this year, Meng Chuan and Motohiko.

On the other end of the phone, Venerable Li laughed heartily and said:

[Principal Sui, rest assured, there are no errors in the logistics for the school anniversary. With Meng Chuan and Motohiko, the two martial artists competing in the Martial Extreme True Inheritance contest, the event will surely be exciting.]

[Hahaha, that's good. I was planning to let the two sister school principals see the prowess of our university students.]

Principal Sui Chunqiu had his own calculations, specifically inviting the two extraordinary Martial Arts University principals to come.

It was not without the intention of showcasing the new generation of United University students.

Upon achieving the Martial Arts Celestial King status, one has seen and grown indifferent to 99.99% of worldly things.

But martial arts education is a shared passion among the three Kings, and if he could surpass the other two here...

Just thinking about it, Sui Chunqiu felt a wave of satisfaction...

Showing off feels best with the right company, he hoped those two youngsters wouldn't disappoint him...

...

The night breeze was refreshing, the two finished discussing business and chatted idly for a while longer.

Professor Li, slightly sentimental, said:

[Principal Sui, this batch truly resembles the year when Xiaoshang and Xiaoluo competed fiercely.]

In the 88 years since the founding of Northern United University, only that year and the present can be called "Two Stars Shining Bright".

Two martial artist level graduates appeared simultaneously, competing for the title of [Martial Extreme True Inheritance].

Adventuring into the First Major Threshold at eighteen or nineteen years old, even in today's flourishing martial arts era, is quite rare.

In the old martial arts world, they could have been legendary for achieving celestial status at such a young age.

[Hahaha, old Li, you have yet to know. The most miraculous is that tomorrow these two youngsters are both quite connected to Xiaoshang and Xiaoluo. Meng Chuan is personally taught by Xiaoluo's father, and Motohiko is personally taught by Xiaoshang himself. Isn't it such a coincidence?]

Upon hearing this, Li Zhenyue's expression showed slight surprise.

He really was unaware of this. With his usual busy cultivation and work schedule, he only knew about Motohiko's affairs, not much about Meng Chuan.

He only knew that this youngster seemed to be the national champion in some competition...

Thinking of this, he smiled and said:

[Principal Sui, fate is indeed magical, it seems these two truly have a bond, it's indescribably wonderful.]

Sui Chunqiu apparently thought of something, his expression becoming quite peculiar:

[Not only do they share a connection, but this Meng youngster also shares a considerable bond with you.]

[Oh? How so, Principal?]

[You'll know when you see him in action, this youngster is studying your fist technique.]

[Five Elements Qiankun Fist?]

[Precisely.]

...

The next morning at ten o'clock at Fengtian Xiantao International Airport.

The Northern United University Yong'an branch's private jet, carrying Chen Qiushui and the Grandmaster Class members, along with Meng Chuan and his teacher, successfully arrived.

Luo Guanyun, being a Martial Arts Grandmaster and an outstanding alumni of the university, was invited to observe the ceremony and came along as well.

He looked at the distant silhouette of the main campus buildings, feeling quite sentimental.

"Chuan'er, Master originally matured on this land, spending nearly ten years at the main campus.

Soon I'll take you around for a proper tour inside; it's much larger than the branch campus."

Meng Chuan nodded, eager to see what the martial atmosphere of the main campus was like.

"Master was once the Martial Extreme True Inheritance; you youngsters should push for double true inheritance for our lineage!"

"Absolutely!"

...

The following morning, in the reception hotel within Northern United University.

Meng Chuan sat cross-legged, taking some time to practice cultivating the Demon Heart Technique.

According to his original plan, every morning he would start practicing the Dragon Meditation Secret Technique.

But today was different because the Tiger Form emphasizes control over fierce energy, which is most harmful to the heart spirit.

He needed to maintain abundant spiritual power to ensure everything was perfect for the Martial Extreme True Inheritance today.

After another grand circulation, his Qi Blood increased by about 0.5.

A prompt sounded in his mind, indicating that his heart technique just accumulated 1% proficiency.

[Tao Heart Demon Planting: The Fundamental Chapter—First Layer (80%) → (81%)]

Though the cultivation speed seemed fast, Meng Chuan hadn't forgotten this was merely the first layer.

Being a precious fragmented divine skill with thirteen layers awaiting him...

The first eight layers correspond to the first and second major threshold levels, while the last five layers aim for the third major threshold, heading towards Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Overall, it's divided into four layers, four layers, and five layers, with increasing cultivation difficulty as it progresses.

Simultaneously, as the cultivation technique advances, the gains from practice would also improve.

The key aspects were imprinted in the mind by ancestor Luo Fang's divine impartation and could be accessed at any time.

The thirteen layers are not the endpoint of this technique, and after the competition, he would start attempting the Turtle Shell Demon Skill when he returns to Yong'an.

If the two successfully merge, the number of technique layers would continue to rise, making it certain...

Just as he was about to start another circulation, Meng Chuan's ears slightly moved, hearing footsteps approaching the door.

Upon opening the door, he saw his master's back, with a middle-aged man in a loose black shirt standing behind.

His posture was upright, and the air around him was vast and boundless, seemingly integrating entirely with the surroundings.

It was as though wherever he stood, it became his "home turf."

This gave Meng Chuan a faint feeling of familiarity.

"The energy of Five Elements..."

He had already guessed the identity of the visitor...

"Chuan'er, this is Professor Li from the main campus of Northern United University, [Five Elements Supreme·Li Zhenyue]."

Luo Guanyun chuckled and introduced his disciple.

Professor Li is the Five Elements Fist authority of the Xingyi Sect.

He has a certain connection with the other side, and Meng Chuan happens to specialize in this field.

As his direct master, it was natural to help make an introduction.

Meng Chuan clasped his hands and respectfully invited him inside.

"Student Meng Chuan, greets Professor Li."

Li Zhenyue nodded slightly, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and scrutinized Meng Chuan with piercing eyes.

What Meng Chuan saw was that the other's eyes were like ancient wells, deep yet harboring the sharpness of years past.

Another seasoned character, similar to Principal Yang.

Upon first meeting, Meng Chuan lightly tagged him to remind himself to be cautious, adhering strictly to the principles of "less interaction, less showiness."

While deep in thought, he noticed the fine lines at the corner of the other's eyes spread as he unexpectedly laughed and said:

"Young Meng, you indeed have the demeanor of my Five Elements Qiankun, no wonder Principal Sui says we are destined."

"Principal Sui?"

Upon hearing this name, Meng Chuan was moved.

Coming back to his senses, he quickly responded:

"It's my fortune to learn, my aptitude is lacking, and I don't deserve such praise."

Meng Chuan remembered to be "low-key."

Luo Guanyun was a bit anxious beside him, having invited the other with much effort, yet instead of showcasing his talent, he was hiding...

He didn't know what Meng Chuan was thinking, but perhaps the kid had his considerations.

So, he kept silent and continued sitting on the side like a transparent person.

After hearing Meng Chuan's words, Li Zhenyue said nothing. He examined him for a moment and then clapped his hands and laughed:

"A fine example of hiding your brilliance, externally soft yet internally firm, which aligns with my true meaning of the Five Elements.

But Xiao Meng, your master told me you practiced the Five Elements Fist to the point of forming primary True Qi.

So, there's no need for humility, hahaha."

"..."

Inwardly, Meng Chuan could only smile bitterly, his master this time meant well but made a mistake.

His Five Elements Qiankun Fist was already a thing of the past, having long evolved into the form of Five Qi Chaoyuan and the panel...

In some ways, if this secret were discovered by others, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thankfully, he had long prepared contingency plans for this, and he continued to use those [golden eyes] of the "real world" as an excuse.

True and false intermingle. Those eyes he saw firsthand, making his story genuine and flawless.

Li Zhenyue's eyes flickered subtly, and he said meaningfully:

"The path of martial arts is enigmatic and boundless, such an encounter may indeed be a blessing in disguise.

With talent and opportunity, I wonder if Xiao Meng is willing to join my Five Elements Fist research lab?"

The Five Elements Fist research lab is one of the martial arts research institutions within the United University, led by him.

It focuses on the deep development and legacy of the Five Elements Fist, forming the core academic team specializing in Xingyi Sect Five Elements Method within the United University.

Not waiting for Meng Chuan's reaction, he stood up and continued:

"Alright, the school celebration is about to begin, I need to get busy. After it ends, you can visit the research lab and then decide.

Our team is currently developing a true skill fist technique that I believe will interest you."

"Understood, looking forward to Professor's guidance then."

Meng Chuan quickly stood up and agreed.

...

After he left, only his master and he were left in the room.

Luo Guanyun found it hard to understand why Meng Chuan was acting peculiarly today.

Previously, his interactions with Wudang's Grandmaster Zhao and other seniors were not like this...

Meng Chuan found it hard to explain because, starting with Principal Yin, it was just his speculations, and the other side hadn't taken any action.

Luo Guanyun didn't think too much about it. Whether in terms of age or martial arts, Meng Chuan was already an adult, and it was normal for him to have his considerations when encountering things.

All he needed was to be there when his disciple needed him.

Avoiding unnecessary concerns and interference was a lesson taught by the incident with Luo Meng.

"You need to make your own judgments, your master will always support you."

Luo Guanyun patted Meng Chuan's shoulder and left.

As one of the invited guests, he should head to the guest seat to wait for the celebration to begin.

"Understood."

Meng Chuan solemnly nodded.

He could feel his master's sincere feelings toward him.

Regarding Yin Tianshou and others, even the panel.

There are things he didn't want to hide, but saying them would be useless, and would only make the other worry for him.

Watching his master leave, Meng Chuan looked out at the freshly risen morning sun, his heart clear as a mirror.

One day, the doubts and trials that once left him treading on thin ice would all be completely shattered and become the rolling dust of history.

In the meantime, whatever burdens had to be borne, Meng Chuan shouldered alone.

In this Qi Blood Martial Arts Era, he was also an adult, and equally a martial arts predecessor in the eyes and words of other martial artists.

Growth comes with a price. Today, he had a deeper understanding of this truth.

Learning to be reserved, and understanding to cherish.

...

An hour later, at the martial arts peak square of the main headquarters of Northern United University.

This was the largest event venue at the headquarters, surrounded by fluttering banners, and the school celebration ribbons rolled like dragons in the morning breeze.

Thousands of students stood there, the rise of Qi Blood like a sea, reflecting the marble brick floor in a fiery red that's quite beautiful.
