Gao Wu: My martial arts technique has entries.

Chapter 74 Heartbeat [Third Update]

Jiang Feng heard everything, and his initially pleased expression grew increasingly grim.

Innate talent is more important than comprehension in the early stages, but as time goes on, comprehension will become increasingly important.

Moreover, given Chu Kuang's exceptional comprehension, the gap between them is likely to widen further.

"Lin Shuyao went upstairs."

Just then, Lin Shuyao also stepped forward, letting the instrument continuously scan her. Soon, a broadcast came through.

"Lin Shuyao, vitality level 6.97, score 397 points."

"boom--"

In an instant, the entire class erupted in chaos.

Lin Shuyao's life level of 6.97 far exceeded everyone's expectations. Just two months ago, Lin Shuyao's life level was only around 6.1.

"With such a high level of life, her Spirit Stream Technique must be at its peak, right?"

"I'm afraid it's not just that. Her internal energy must have reached a high level as well, otherwise her life level wouldn't have increased so much."

Soon, the students in the class were discussing it, and many of them looked shocked.

Chu Kuang was not surprised by this. Lin Shuyao had extremely high comprehension and would definitely comprehend external martial arts very quickly. However, her innate talent was only at the third grade, which resulted in her slow progress in cultivating external martial arts.

Lin Shuyao has extremely high comprehension and talent for internal energy cultivation, so she chose to focus on cultivating internal energy first.

Once one has perfected their internal skills, they can directly use internal energy to temper their body, thus greatly accelerating the progress of their external skills training.

However, this path requires a lot of resources. If Lin Shuyao didn't have a father who was at the Transcendent Realm, even if she cultivated her internal energy to the perfect level, her current life level would probably only be around level 6.5.

Amidst the admiring gazes of the crowd, Lin Shuyao strolled out.

Compared to when they first met, Chu Kuang noticed that Lin Shuyao had become much more aloof.

Back in junior high, Lin Shuyao was lively and adorable, possessing a vibrant energy and vitality, which was why Chu Kuang was captivated by her.

But at some point, Lin Shuyao's emotions gradually became calm. It was as if she was growing up, or as if she was trying to forget something, and she gradually became aloof and unapproachable.

"The Severing of Thoughts Technique?"

Chu Kuang murmured to himself, a sudden realization dawning on him, along with a touch of indescribable emotion.

The so-called "Severing Thoughts Technique" means to forget a person you once loved. The deeper the love, the more distracting thoughts you will eventually sever, and the more astonishing your enlightenment will become.

But if you can't cut it off, you'll get trapped in it and won't be able to get out.

"it's your turn."

Xu Yue spoke up and patted him on the shoulder.

Chu Kuang nodded and strolled towards the life detector.

In the instant he brushed past Lin Shuyao, Chu Kuang seemed to hear a rapid heartbeat. He turned his head to look at Lin Shuyao, only to see that her expression was as cold and aloof as the moon.

"He's gotten stronger again."

Lin Shuyao paused for a moment, but then left without looking back, as if she had reaffirmed her resolve once again.

Chu Kuang stopped and allowed the scanner to look at his body. Soon, a new line of data appeared.

"Chu Kuang, with perfect harmony between inner and outer strength, has a vitality level of 8.38 and a score of 500 points."

A broadcast came from the testing equipment, and a silence fell over the entire square.

After a moment of silence, the entire Class 7 erupted in incredulous exclamations.

This life level of nearly 8.4 means that Chu Kuang's intermediate internal and external martial arts skills are almost perfect, making him one of the top performers in the entire Third Middle School. Most importantly, just two months ago, Chu Kuang's life force was only level 4.8.

The fact that his life level increased by 3.6 in two months is enough to shock a lot of people. Among the more than 100 students in Class 7, probably no more than 30 of them will ever reach level 8 life force in their lifetime.

"A hidden talent has truly emerged from Class 7."

"It's a pity. If he had a few more months, he might have been able to go toe-to-toe with Ye Qingfeng."

On the high platform in the distance, many teachers turned their gazes and looked at the data on the instruments with expressions of shock.

Teacher Li, the homeroom teacher of the honors class, shook her head and calmly said, "Life level is not absolute. Chu Kuang has only been rising for a short time, and his martial arts skills are probably far inferior to Ye Qingfeng's."

"That's not necessarily true. You should know that top-grade comprehension is even more beneficial for understanding cultivation techniques than top-grade physical constitution."

Some people shook their heads, disagreeing with Teacher Li's statement.

Teacher Li neither confirmed nor denied this, but said with a hint of confidence, "That's a pity. We can't let them have a showdown this time."

Upon seeing this, Principal Qian smiled and said, "Whether it's Chu Kuang or Ye Qingfeng, they are both the hope of the school and the future of the human race. There's no need to make them so antagonistic."

"..."

"Your progress is much faster than I expected."

On the square, seeing Chu Kuang complete the life level test, Xu Yue couldn't help but smile.

He patted Chu Kuang's shoulder heavily, his voice filled with barely concealed excitement, and said, "I've been a teacher for over ten years, but I've never met a student with such high talent as you."

Chu Kuang smiled, then said solemnly, "No matter what my future achievements are, I will always be your student."

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yue burst into laughter.

As a veteran Transcendent Warrior with a Life Level of 15, if he were to guard the Dark Domain, even without risking his life to hunt ferocious beasts, his annual income would be no less than 300,000 Federal Credits.

But he was willing to stay in Tianheng City and be an ordinary high school teacher, all for the sake of the title of a strong teacher.
"Alright, alright, then you should work hard at your cultivation."

"I hope that one day I will see you open up the divine treasure and set foot among the stars."

Xu Yue patted him on the shoulder cheerfully, and then continued, "Go on, prepare for the martial arts assessment."

"it is good."

Chu Kuang nodded and looked at the Dao Discussion Platform not far away.

At this time, some students had already begun to ascend the platform to begin their martial arts assessment.

The debating platform is filled with various sensors and technological devices, which, together with the intelligent brain behind it, form a complete martial arts evaluation system.

This martial arts evaluation system can perfectly calculate the progress of martial arts skills.

The scoring standards for the three categories of martial arts skills are calculated based on the level of skill attainment.

一般来说，是初窥0~20分、小成31~50分，大成61~90分，圆满则是100分的满分。

According to this standard, if you learn one more martial arts skill, you can gain up to 5 points, and if you learn two more martial arts skills, you can gain up to 10 points.

For example, if a person masters two ultimate martial arts techniques, they can get 95 points; if they master three ultimate martial arts techniques, they can get 100 points.

Unlike internal and external martial arts, the cultivation of martial arts skills depends more on comprehension and affinity, so the number of students who have mastered martial arts skills is less than the number who have mastered external martial arts skills.

After more than a hundred people had finished demonstrating their martial arts skills, nine people had reached the pinnacle of their skills, among whom Lin Shuyao and Jiang Feng were the most outstanding.
