Gao Wu: My martial arts technique has entries.

Chapter 26 Battle Armor
"This is a picture of my wife. I guarantee it will be more effective than this amulet."

Li Gang wiped the photo, a sweet smile appearing on his lips, and said:

"This time we're going to Falling Phoenix Valley to pull off a big heist. With the money I've saved up over the years, I should have no problem breaking through to the Mortal Transformation Realm when I get back. Then I can send my wife to the safest Level 1 Dark Domain to enjoy a life of luxury."

Chu's father was somewhat envious. Compared to the fighting and killing in the Dark Realm, the Safe Dark Realm had long been completely controlled by the human race, and the danger inside was almost zero.

Moreover, the source energy of the first-level dark domain is very abundant. If his wife stays there for a long time, her cultivation speed will be much faster, and the possibility of breaking through to the Transcendent Realm will also increase significantly.

The only problem is that settling in the safe dark zone requires paying a source energy tax every year, which is not something that an apprentice-level martial artist can afford.

Regardless, the biggest goal of the vast majority of apprentice-level martial artists in this world is to break through to the Transcendent Realm and then move to the safe Dark Domain to settle down permanently.

"..."

The next morning, Chu Kuang got up early, signed for 300 vials of nutrient solution, and set off for school.

When he arrived at Tianheng No. 3 Middle School, he found that almost all of his classmates had arrived, clearly taking this special training very seriously.

At 7:00 a.m. sharp, the homeroom teacher, Xu Yue, and several teachers from Class 7 arrived at the martial arts room.

Xu Yue was dressed in a handsome energy armor, and his alloy combat boots made a series of metallic clanging sounds as they hit the floor.

He walked through the classroom expressionlessly, his piercing gaze sweeping over everyone: "This special training is a chance for all of you to leap over the dragon gate."

"If you can't stand out, you'll most likely only be able to get into a third-tier martial arts university, or even worse."

At this point, Xu Yue added, "This time, apart from the key classes, all 48 regular classes and more than 5,000 students from our No. 3 Middle School will be going."

"If you want to snatch the Source Energy from so many people, sticking together is the best way to succeed, especially for the three of you: Chu Kuang, Jiang Feng, and Lin Shuyao..."

Xu Yue paused slightly, glanced at Chu Kuang and the other two, and then said, "No matter what grudges you have, you must put aside your differences and join forces to seize the Source Energy Spring this time."

The three had their own thoughts on this, but they still calmly replied, "We will do our best."

Xu Yue nodded and didn't say anything more. He simply clapped his hands and had the robot bring up a hundred boxes.

He distributed the boxes to everyone and then said, "This special training will be held in the Dark Domain. These are the armor and weapons that the school has temporarily prepared for you."

"With these armors, you can fight more freely and avoid dying inside."

"The armor is prepared based on your physical data, and you can choose your own weapons."

Listening to Xu Yue's introduction, Chu Kuang opened the box in front of him and found a set of alloy armor inside.

This armor has more than thirty parts. Wearing it does not significantly affect a martial artist's movement, but it greatly increases their defensive capabilities.

Besides the armor, Chu Kuang also picked out a lance that could be assembled from the weapons.

This is a battle spear made of alloy. When assembled, it is more than three meters long. It consists of a spear body made of three sections of alloy material, plus a two-foot-long spear blade that resembles a longsword.

"A fine spear, fine armor."

With the robot's assistance, Chu Kuang donned his battle armor and assembled his spear, a smile finally appearing on his face.

The armor and spear were entirely black, radiating a cold metallic sheen. Combined with Chu Kuang's tall and slender figure, they exuded an invisible sense of oppression simply by standing there.

"Damn, you're so handsome."

Zhang Ming, who had just finished putting on his armor, couldn't help but look at Chu Kuang's figure with envy. Chu Kuang was tall and slender, originally a handsome young man with delicate features. Recently, with his martial arts realm improving rapidly, he had grown half a head taller and gained an even more restrained heroic spirit, making him impossible to ignore at first glance.

But that alone wouldn't be enough to make Zhang Ming show such an expression.

The main reason is that Chu Kuang's entire demeanor changed after he put on the armor. He was like a born warrior, with the majestic and heroic bearing of an ancient overlord.

"Chu Kuang, you really didn't choose the wrong name."

"When I see you like this, I just want to beat you up."

Zhang Ming was so anxious he was itching to get his hands on it. It was the same set of armor, but when he wore it, he looked like an ordinary soldier. Why did it look so strange on Chu Kuang?

In fact, not only him, but even Lin Shuyao, who was not far away, couldn't help but look over, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of amazement.

"A3-level armor and weapons."

Chu Kuang ignored Zhang Ming, simply stretched his limbs, and revealed a satisfied expression.

The so-called A3-level armor corresponds to a vitality level of 10, which is equivalent to the basic defense of a high-level martial artist with perfect internal and external skills.

This armor has very strong defensive capabilities. Generally speaking, unless one has mastered intermediate internal and external martial arts to perfection, it is very difficult to break through the defense of this A3-level armor.

"This A3-level battle armor is worth over 100,000 Federal Credits. An ordinary apprentice-level martial artist would need to work for ten years without eating or drinking to buy one set."

"Unfortunately, it's only a loan. I'll only have the right to use this suit of armor during these few days of special training."

Chu Kuang, with a hint of regret, put the thought aside.

Source Energy Armor is one of the most common pieces of equipment used by humans in the main universe. Wearing it grants the wearer the strength of a warrior at the corresponding level of the armor.

However, it is greatly restricted in the Dark Domain, providing only the most basic defense, no different from ordinary armor.

Fortunately, in the abandoned dark domain where the source energy is depleted, this suppression is greatly reduced or even close to nothing, which is why they were able to enter the abandoned dark domain wearing their armor.

Of course, the armor that the training school gave them was mainly for survival.

Its combat capabilities are greatly limited, providing only the most basic defensive capabilities, and the armor is covered with various sensors.

Once the armor's AI assesses that the user has been severely injured by the enemy, even if the armor is perfectly preserved, it will immediately declare the user obsolete.

"good."

"Now that you're all ready, let's set off."

As everyone gradually donned their armor, Xu Yue couldn't help but smile, leading them towards the school square.

Chu Kuang arrived with the others and found that a warship over a hundred meters long had been waiting for some time in the school square.

"Planetary-level spaceship."

Chu Kuang glanced at it and immediately showed envy.

Human civilization classifies spaceships into four levels: planetary, stellar, galactic, and interstellar.

Even a planetary-level spaceship is worth at least tens of millions of federal dollars, and most first-tier Transcendent Realm martial artists might not be able to afford one in their entire lives.
