Hunting God Era

Chapter 53 Before the Martial Arts Competition
In the afternoon, he continued practicing his martial arts as usual. After breaking through the Four Dragon Gates, Li Ye went to the library as usual to continue supplementing his knowledge of demons and monsters.

"There are still more than 3,000 points left, but only more than 300 points can be converted through martial arts. Breaking through to the Five Dragon Gate requires even more points; if converted into data, it requires 800 points of Qi and Blood."

Li Ye was scrolling through his tablet in the library, making some calculations.

With normal breakthroughs in Qi and blood, he could easily break through to the Five Dragon Gate, or even higher.

But there's no need to do that now. The purpose of stimulating your blood and qi is to get into a good university. There's no need to rush now. You can do it before the college entrance exam if you're sure you're still a bit short.

"District martial arts competition, city martial arts competition, provincial martial arts competition. No matter whether the No. 14 Middle School achieves results in the provincial martial arts competition, it will definitely have a lot of training. There are a total of three training sessions, and a total of 1,800 doses of nutritional supplements."

27,000 points of Qi and Blood.

He believed that a normal breakthrough would definitely be enough to reach the Nine Dragons Gate, but a breakthrough using martial arts skills would only amount to 2,700 points.

Breaking through to the Five Dragon Gate currently requires 800, which is manageable, but it's uncertain whether that will be enough in the future, as the demand for Qi and blood is increasing.

Li Ye thought to himself, "I'll store up some Qi and blood first. If I can't break through to the seventh level before the college entrance exam, I'll just use Qi and blood to break through to the seventh level and get a top-tier martial arts skill first."

This was something he had promised his master and Pan Zhengyang.

As for demons
There's no rush. He can just practice martial arts normally. There's no need for him to go out and fight to the death right now. Anyway, he'll be joining the extermination bureau in the future. Based on his understanding of extermination workers, there will be plenty of opportunities to deal with demons.

The afternoon passed quickly. After school, Li Ye said goodbye to his classmates, went to the bank, withdrew 300,000 yuan and put it in his schoolbag before returning home.

My parents got off work early today, arriving home before Li Ye and having already prepared dinner.

"Dad, mom."

Li Ye didn't hesitate. As soon as he sat down at the table, he took out 300,000 yuan from his bag and stacked it on the corner of the table. "Don't we still owe 200,000 yuan? I have 300,000 yuan here. Take it to pay it off and we'll still have some left."

Liu Qingxia's eyes widened immediately. "Where did you get the money?!"

Li Haihua said with concern, "You don't need to worry about things at home. We earn enough money. Don't do anything foolish with this money."

It's understandable to earn some money through part-time work, but it's something no student has ever experienced before, to suddenly come up with so much money.

"It's legal and compliant, a reward from the school. Wasn't yesterday a training session? I performed well, and the school took a liking to me and sent me to participate in the martial arts competition. This is a reward given in advance."

Li Ye smiled and activated his qi and blood, "The martial arts training class puts a lot of effort into cultivating students. I've already reached the Four Dragon Gates."

"The Four Dragon Gates?!"

Li Haihua exclaimed in surprise, "This is enough to get into a top martial arts university?!"

They knew that their son had trained in martial arts for a summer and reached the Three Dragon Gate. At the time, they were very grateful, thinking that Li Ye had met a benefactor.

But they didn't think too much about it. One Dragon Gate or three Dragon Gate were the same; they were all going to ordinary martial arts universities. They just hoped that maybe after a year, Li Ye could really break through to the fourth Dragon Gate and enter a key martial arts university.

It's only been a week since school started, and we're already at the Four Dragon Gates!
"I knew my son was destined for both academic and athletic success!"

Liu Qingxia exclaimed excitedly, "A top-tier martial arts university! A top-tier university! Your cousin also got into a top-tier university, and now you can be on par with him!"

Li Ye smiled but didn't say anything.

"Was it really given by the school?"

Li Haihua was still a little unsure. He had never heard of paying for martial arts training. They were already grateful to their ancestors for not paying them anything, which allowed Li Ye to become so successful. How could they possibly pay for this?
"Why would I lie to you? It's really true. I wouldn't risk a bright future by doing something illegal or disorderly," Li Ye said with a smile.

He's really not in that situation. The 200,000 yuan shortfall in his family's finances was incurred a long time ago when Li Ye was learning martial arts at the martial arts school. Although he hasn't accumulated a single penny over the years, once he enters Longmen, he'll have something to look forward to and hope for the future.

They're all working, and they're not incapable of earning money. They'll be able to pay it back sooner or later, and the higher their cultivation level, the better their future will be.

Some things are pointless and not worth doing.

Now is the perfect opportunity. He earned so much from just one experience. It's a drop in the ocean when it comes to cultivation resources, but it's more than enough to pay off his family's debts. It also settles one of Li Ye's problems.

"Good! Good!"

Liu Qingxia put the money away, her voice choked with emotion, "We'll pay them back during the New Year. You've made something of yourself, that's good."

Over the years, they have been the subject of much gossip. Not everyone would think of sending someone to a preparatory class or martial arts school; it's a huge expense, and most preparatory students don't get ahead.

Even if they don't go to the martial arts school, their food and drink still need to be taken care of. Besides, if they waste a year and then switch to humanities, they'll have to repeat a year if they can't keep up with their studies, which will also cost money.

Li Ye has broken through the Dragon Gate, but no matter how promising his future is, he still has to realize it first.

But now he's taking the money home directly! He's much more successful than the martial arts student they know!
Li Ye picked up his chopsticks and smiled, "It will get better in the future."

In a world teeming with demons, in an old neighborhood like this, something like the Five Plague Ghosts is unlikely to happen only once. It's better to choose a place with a better environment to live in.

……

Li Ye's life remained the same. Every day, he would go to the cafeteria at a set time and get 50 points of Qi and Blood for free by eating Wuwei Chopsticks.

After Guo Chuming was carried away, it caused no ripples, as if the incident had never happened. Similarly, he also disappeared from the martial arts class.

The day Li Ye arrived at the martial arts class, Yao Ledan approached him mysteriously and said, "You're really amazing. You got the principal to stand up for you."

Li Ye asked in surprise, "What is it?"

Yao Ledan raised her pretty eyebrows: "Guo Chuming, I just found out. It seems that guy transferred schools and his whole family left Ningjiang."

"You should stop gossiping. Instead of wasting time, you should practice martial arts. The difference between the Three Dragon Gate and the Four Dragon Gate is just one leap, but that's the difference between ordinary martial arts and advanced martial arts," Li Ye said with a smile.

He really wasn't interested in this matter. How could the school not be able to handle such a small thing? Even someone as arrogant as Xiang Feipeng tolerated it, so why couldn't he retaliate after his actions were violated first?

Even if he can't solve it, he has the protection of the disinfection bureau behind him. He doesn't even need Pan Zhengyang to step in; Section Chief Sun can solve it for him.

But if that's the case, he'll have to consider whether to change schools.

Yao Ledan waved her hand dismissively, "I'm sure I'll break through this year."

Her family is in the catering and transportation industry related to martial arts, so the food she eats is better than what the school provides. Her family can also hire instructors who are better than Gu Yang, who can provide targeted teaching and have very detailed plans.

"Li Ye, Yang Jie, come here."

Just as they were talking, Gu Yang came in from outside, called out to them, and went into the office first.

"coming."

Yao Ledan laughed and said, "The district martial arts competition is coming up soon, and we need to see your information. Brother Li, you are the big brother in the martial arts class of No. 14 Middle School, but there are other schools with the same skills as you. Don't embarrass yourselves during the competition, or we will lose face big time."

Li Ye smiled upon hearing this, "Really? I'm quite looking forward to it."

As he spoke, he walked toward his office, and Yang Jie followed him in.

Gu Yang saw the two of them and gave each of them a stack of materials. "The day after tomorrow, Monday, our district's martial arts competition will be held at Wuyu Middle School. These are the main players' materials from the other four high schools in Dongcheng District. Take them back and study them carefully."

"Wu Yu?"

Li Ye was taken aback; he actually knew this school.

Unlike these public schools, Wuyu is a private high school. Not only is it very expensive, but it also does not admit ordinary people. Only martial artists can get in!
　The recent plot developments seem a bit flat in terms of feedback? Should I speed up the pacing?
