Gao Wu: My martial arts technique has entries.

Chapter 14 Grace
Back home, Chu Kuang and Chu Yu practiced martial arts for another two hours.

When he was exhausted from training, he entered the Tianheng Star Realm and played ten ranking matches before going to sleep.

The next morning, Chu Kuang arrived at the classroom early, only to hear his classmates discussing amongst themselves.

Before he could ask what had happened, Zhang Ming came over and put his arm around his shoulder, saying, "Did you see the news? They got into a fight last night."

Chu Kuang naturally knew what was going on and immediately asked, "Is it about the attack by the alien race?"

"Yes, last night our Tianyuan C planet was attacked by more than a hundred attacks simultaneously, one of which was in our Tianheng City. And do you know who was attacked?"

Zhang Ming spoke very quickly, his face filled with shock, and said, "It's Ye Qingfeng from our No. 3 Middle School! It's said that Ye Qingfeng has already mastered the intermediate internal and external skills and is about to cultivate the Vajra Body."

"Many graduates from third-rate martial arts universities might not be able to beat him in a real fight, no wonder he has become a thorn in the side of the alien race."

At this point, Zhang Ming revealed an envious expression.

He wasn't particularly talented in martial arts, but fortunately his family was somewhat wealthy, and he was already preparing to pursue the path of genetic evolution.

However, even if one breaks through to the Mortal Transformation Realm through this path, it will only be the weakest, undeveloped Mortal Transformation Realm, with an extremely low probability of breaking through to the Transcendent Realm in the future.

In comparison, Ye Qingfeng has a limitless future. He will most likely reach the Transcendent Realm in the future, and there is even a small chance that he can break through to the Divine Realm. He will be a true peerless expert.

Chu Kuang's focus, however, was not on that; he had already guessed that Ye Qingfeng was the one who had been attacked.

At this moment, his expression turned solemn, and he couldn't help but ask, "Simultaneously carrying out over a hundred precise decapitations, these alien races are really going all out. Have any of them been successfully killed?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ming's expression turned solemn as he said, "One person died in battle, and three were seriously injured. The one who died was a top-tier talent from Tianxing City. At the time, most of his patrol guards were transferred to protect another person."

"As it turned out, the other person wasn't attacked. Instead, he was ambushed and killed by a powerful alien. It's said that the head of the Tianxing City Security Bureau has been dismissed."

Chu Kuang frowned slightly upon hearing this. This person was killed in a sudden attack, either because the alien race changed their plans at the last minute, or because there was a problem with the intelligence.

Regardless of the type, they all represent the defenses of human civilization, and are not truly perfect.

After all, a thief can only steal for a thousand days, so there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days.

"Losing only one person is already considered relatively good."

Zhang Ming didn't pay much attention to this, but instead said, "I saw in the news that our extraordinary alien race on Tianyuan C Star suffered heavy losses. Things should calm down for a while now."

"Moreover, with the alien race suffering such heavy losses, we might be able to seize the opportunity to completely wipe out the Dark Domain."

Chu Kuang shook his head, disagreeing with the idea.

Each level difference in life level results in near-absolute crushing defeat.

In the Dark Realm, the one who decides the outcome of the battle is always the strongest at the highest level.

Even if countless transcendent alien races die in the dark domain of Tianyuan C Star, as long as those alien races' Divine Treasure Realm experts are still alive, human civilization will never be able to completely wipe out this level-two dark domain.

According to Chu Kuang's estimation, it would be difficult to determine a winner in the dark domain of Tianyuan C Star in a short period of time.

This kind of level-two dark domain is awkward. It is a small level-two dark domain, and the true geniuses of human civilization are unwilling to break through to the Divine Realm in it, because once they break through, they can never come out again.

Those who are willing to break through in this second-tier dark domain are basically those who have exhausted their potential in the Divine Treasure Realm, and most of them are pseudo-Divine Treasure Realm cultivators who have barely broken through.

Anyone who has a chance to advance further in the Divine Treasury Realm will definitely enter a medium-to-large level two dark domain, or directly break through to a stellar level level three dark domain.

After all, experts in the Divine Realm are still third-tier life forms, and can freely enter and exit the third-level Dark Domain without being trapped in the second-level Dark Domain.

However, only two or three people from the pseudo-divine realm can fight against alien divine realm cultivators, but to kill them, it would probably take more than ten times that number.

Trapping a pseudo-divine expert ten times stronger in the level two dark domain is not a worthwhile deal.

Actually, the best way to eliminate the level two Dark Domain is to produce a young human king in the Transcendent Realm. Such a prodigy with the potential to become a human king can defeat a Divine Realm expert and can safely emerge after killing them.

However, such prodigies are extremely rare. The human race in the Tianyuan Star System has only existed for a short hundred years, and there have been no prodigies of this caliber yet.

In fact, let alone a young human king who defied the divine treasure, even a peerless genius in the extraordinary realm who could barely contend with a pseudo-divine treasure realm was rare in the Tianyuan Star System.

However, these are still far from Chu Kuang's goals. What he needs to do now is to master the Iron Armor Technique as soon as possible.

Not long after, the homeroom teacher, Xu Yue, arrived at the office. He also mentioned the attack, reminded the students to be careful, and then called Chu Kuang to his office alone.

"I heard you made it into the top 3,000?"

"Yes, they just entered the top three thousand two days ago."

Chu Kuang nodded, not surprised that Xu Yue knew this news.

The Tianheng Ranking Tournament was originally prepared for high school students in Tianheng City, and Xu Yue, as their homeroom teacher, naturally had access to firsthand information.

Upon seeing this, Xu Yue's expression showed a hint of anticipation as he asked, "So, when you took leave yesterday, did you use those 100,000 Federal Credits to go into seclusion and break through your cultivation level?"

Chu Kuang didn't hide anything and said directly, "I bought a source energy potion and perfected my basic marksmanship." "You have quite the guts, are you planning to break into the top 1000?"

Xu Yue spoke, unable to suppress a slight smile.

He knew Chu Kuang's thoughts. Generally speaking, such a valuable item as the Source Energy Potion is best saved for when trying to perfect the basic internal skills or when trying to perfect the advanced external skills.

Using it on basic shooting skills is actually a bit of a waste. Chu Kuang is probably doing this to quickly improve his strength, break into the top 1,000 in the ranking competition, and then get the prize money and a larger loan.

This is somewhat risky, but if successful, it could create a snowball effect, rapidly increasing Chu Kuang's strength.

Thinking of this, Xu Yue took out an application form and handed it to Chu Kuang, saying, "Since you have an idea, then sign this application form."

Chu Kuang took the application form and glanced at it, then a look of surprise appeared on his face. It turned out to be an application form for a third-class scholarship.

Even a third-class scholarship is astonishing for Chu Kuang.

The standard for a third-class scholarship in the first year of high school is three thousand federal dollars per month.

This amount may not seem like much, but it adds up to 36,000 Federal Credits per year. While it's not enough to buy Origin Energy Potions, it's more than enough to meet the basic training needs of an average high school student.

In fact, Lin Shuyao and Jiang Feng in the class only received third-class scholarships.

The top ten students in other classes only receive scholarships, which amount to only one thousand federal dollars per month. In the assessment of the federal leadership, these students do not have enough potential to be rewarded; at most, they are only worthy of some assistance.

"Logically speaking, students who haven't mastered both internal and external skills by the end of their first year of high school shouldn't be eligible for a third-class scholarship."

"However, your situation is special. The difficulty of perfecting the basic techniques is much higher than the difficulty of mastering the beginner techniques."

Xu Yue had Chu Kuang sign the application form, and then said with a smile, "I'll apply for it for you, but whether it gets approved depends on the school leaders' approval."

Chu Kuang smiled slightly, knowing that since Xu Yue had already spoken up, getting the third-class scholarship should not be a problem.

So he stood up, saluted Xu Yue, and said, "Teacher Xu, I will remember your kindness."

"Don't be so mushy."

Xu Yue smiled, casually put the application form away, and then said, "There's only a little over a month left until the final exams. Everyone is in the final sprint, and almost every day someone breaks through to the next level in external martial arts."

"You don't have much time left. You need to seize the window of opportunity and quickly get into the top 1,000. If you drag it out for too long, it will be much more difficult to get into the top 1,000."

"I understand, but breaking into the top 1,000 in the Tianheng ranking competition shouldn't be too difficult for me."

Chu Kuang nodded. Leaving aside other classes and schools, just in their Class 7 of Grade 1, there were several people whose external martial arts skills were close to reaching the limit of minor mastery.

Within a month at the latest, at least three more students in the class will have achieved mastery of external martial arts. At that time, the competition for the top 1,000 spots in the ranking competition will definitely become much more difficult.

However, Chu Kuang was not worried. After his basic spear technique and external skills were perfected, his Golden Spear and Iron Armor Skill were in a period of rapid development. At the latest, he would be able to master both advanced martial arts within ten days.

With the added boost from the keyword, it would be truly unbelievable if he still couldn't break into the top 1,000.

It's a good thing that you're confident.

Xu Yue smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, "Try not to go out during this time. The alien races have suffered a great loss recently and may take the opportunity to retaliate."

"I see."

Chu Kuang nodded, then got up and left the office.

The school's procedures were quick; in just half a day, Chu Kuang's scholarship for this month was issued, and the three thousand yuan scholarship made his wallet much fuller again.

“I will receive a scholarship of 3,000 yuan per month, plus 600 yuan per day from tutoring. From now on, I will have a fixed income of 21,000 yuan per month.”

As Chu Kuang calculated his future income, his martial arts movements became much lighter and more agile.

Twenty-one thousand federal dollars a month might not be much for the offspring of martial arts families, but for Chu Kuang, a commoner, it was a considerable income.

After all, the combined annual income of Chu's parents was only a little over 20,000 federal dollars.

"I owe Xu Yue and Lin Shuyao a favor."

Chu Kuang realized that Lin Shuyao had helped him a lot.

After all, most students only need 100 federal dollars for a private tutoring session, but the other party is asking for three times that price.

This is definitely not because he teaches well. After all, in this day and age, it's not difficult to hire a good tutor if you're willing to spend the money.

If it weren't for Lin Shuyao, even if he taught two classes a day, he would only earn six thousand yuan a month, and other parents would definitely make him teach the full two classes.

Thinking of this, Chu Kuang looked at Lin Shuyao, who was cultivating her internal energy in the distance, and then slowly looked away.

"Never mind, I'll repay this kindness another time when I have the chance."
