Open up and break into another world
#20 - challenge
It was the twentieth day since Xu Ming transmigrated to this foreign world.
For the past twenty days, Xu Ming had slowly adapted to this world without electricity or internet.
His cultivation steadily improved as he idled, unknowingly reaching the final stage of outer refinement—the sixth level.
Since he could level up simply by idling all day, he was incredibly bored; he even occasionally activated the "Perfect Combat" mode to comprehend his realm from a near-microscopic perspective.
Such extravagant behavior was something Xu Ming would never have done before; but now, he didn't mind activating "Perfect Combat" a few times—after all, Wu Gaofeng had very diligently sent him tens of thousands of taels of gold!
The effect of throwing down large amounts of gold was obvious!
Although Xu Ming's realm was still far from microscopic, it was worlds apart from what it was twenty days ago. Now, Xu Ming could even fight Sun Ji to a draw without activating "Perfect Combat."
In other words, even without "Perfect Combat," Xu Ming was already a rare opponent in the outer refinement stage.
"Boss, Boss, I'm here! I bought more delicious food!"
Just as Xu Ming was quietly meditating to comprehend his realm, Sun Ji came running over, shouting and carrying large bags of things: "I ran through several streets of the capital city today to buy these! I got them from the native locals, and ordinary people wouldn't be able to find them!"
Xu Ming realized that there was definitely a reason why Sun Ji was so tall and big. Because Sun Ji… loved to eat! And he could eat a lot!
Before, Sun Ji didn't have much money, so he had to be careful about what he ate. But since Xu Ming had divided a stack of gold notes, about ten thousand taels, from the "loot" a few days ago, Sun Ji couldn't stop eating!
Remembering where it came from, Sun Ji not only ate himself every day but also brought a lot of things for Xu Ming to eat.
Thanks to Sun Ji's convenience, Xu Ming had tasted many foreign flavors these past few days.
"Little Ji!" Xu Ming said earnestly, "You can't just focus on eating; you can't neglect your cultivation either!"
"Uh, cultivation?" Sun Ji said with his mouth full, "Boss, I accidentally broke through to the sixth level of outer refinement last night!"
"So fast?" Xu Ming was a little surprised.
"I don't know what's going on, but it seems like the more I eat, the faster my cultivation improves!"
"Is that so? Then eat quickly, and I'll test your strength after you finish!"
Sun Ji, who was at the fifth level of outer refinement, could already sweep away many sixth-level outer refinement martial artists; so how powerful would Sun Ji be now?
As expected, Sun Ji, at the sixth level of outer refinement, had strength that completely exceeded the outer refinement level. Even though the cultivation technique Xu Ming practiced, 'Severing Mortal Dust,' was very high-end, he was far behind Sun Ji in terms of pure strength.
However, as soon as Xu Ming activated Perfect Combat, Sun Ji was instantly defeated.
"Boss, your moves are too unbelievable!" Sun Ji had never been convinced by anyone since he was a child; he wasn't even convinced by those inner refinement martial artists who were stronger than him because he firmly believed that he would one day be stronger than them.
But he had to be convinced by Xu Ming!
Every time he fought Xu Ming, Sun Ji felt that his moves were completely unpredictable. Although Xu Ming didn't use much strength in his moves, he could exert the effect of ten parts of strength with one part; Sun Ji's strength was great, but he often couldn't use it at the right point.
"Overpowering skill with brute force, Little Ji, if your strength were a little stronger, I probably wouldn't be able to beat you either!" Xu Ming wasn't being humble; even with Perfect Combat activated, he wasn't at all relaxed when dealing with Sun Ji. It could be said that Sun Ji's progress these past few days was no less than Xu Ming's, and perhaps even greater.
"But Little Ji, you really need to find a way to improve your realm! With your natural divine strength, if your realm were stronger, you would definitely be invincible!"
"Realm?" Sun Ji felt confused, "Boss, what exactly is realm?"
"This thing… alas, it can only be understood and not expressed in words. You should just practice your hammer techniques properly! Maybe you'll have some enlightenment as you practice!"
Realm was indeed difficult to describe in words.
Because realm was originally a person's perception of the natural world. However, everyone's perspective and thoughts were different, so what they perceived was also different.
Even if it was the same 'Microscopic' realm, what Xu Ming perceived would be a balance of offense and defense; while Sun Ji would definitely perceive it from the perspective of breaking through techniques with force.
"Brother Ming, someone named Lin Muqing is looking for you at the Martial Academy gate!" A new disciple of the Martial Academy ran over to deliver the message.
Brother Ming was the respectful title that the new disciples of the Desolate Martial Academy gave to Xu Ming, and it was also a sign of their belief in Xu Ming's strength.
"Boss, I'll go drive him away!" Sun Ji was about to rush out immediately.
Sun Ji always remembered his mission as a younger brother, which was to help Xu Ming drive away those annoying little cats and dogs!
"No need!" Xu Ming thought for a while and said, "I'll go myself; it's time to meet Lin Muqing."
Lin Muqing was undoubtedly Xu Ming's number one enemy in this world.
Ever since Xu Ming transmigrated, he had been constantly on guard against being killed by Lin Muqing; he only felt a little safe after entering the Desolate Martial Academy.
Moreover, two of Xu Ming's three obsessions were directly related to Lin Muqing!
And today, Xu Ming was finally going to stand face-to-face with Lin Muqing.
When he met Lin Muqing at the Martial Academy gate, Lin Muqing was still dressed in white, fluttering in the wind, and incomparably arrogant.
"Xu Ming?" Lin Muqing glanced at Xu Ming playfully, "I really didn't expect it at all, you actually hid so deeply!"
"Speak, what do you want from me?" Xu Ming stared directly at Lin Muqing; his eyes revealed no emotion.
Only Xu Ming himself knew that if he had the chance, he would definitely kill Lin Muqing—because of his obsession, and for his own survival.
"I'm here to inform you of something—come back to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion with me!" Lin Muqing said in a commanding tone.
Actually, Lin Muqing really didn't want to come looking for Xu Ming, because back then, Lin Muqing himself had tried every possible way to get Xu Ming kicked out of the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion. Now, he had to personally invite him back, which made him feel very ashamed.
However, Lin Muqing had no choice but to come.
If he didn't come, Wu Gaofeng would probably be severely punished by the Martial Pavilion.
Although Lin Muqing and Wu Gaofeng were just ordinary drinking buddies and didn't have any deep friendship, Lin Muqing had to take full responsibility for what had happened. If he didn't help clean up the mess, his reputation in the capital would definitely stink, and who would help him with errands in the future?
"Damn it!" Lin Muqing cursed inwardly, "The elders in the Martial Pavilion actually said that Xu Ming's talent could rank among the top five in the entire Flying Cloud Kingdom's history!"
Lin Muqing also didn't expect that he would provoke such a terrifying genius. However, Lin Muqing wasn't worried or regretful, because the more talented a genius was, the more likely they were to be associated with one word, and that word was—untimely death!
"Xu Ming must die!" Lin Muqing's eyes were cold.
The newest and most complete novels are at 6_9_shu_ba.
It's just that now, Xu Ming has been hiding in the Wild Martial Academy, and he has no chance to attack.
"Go back to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion with you?" Xu Ming had already anticipated Lin Muqing's intention, "Young Master Qing, a few days ago, didn't you try everything possible to prevent me from entering the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion? Why are you now running over to beg me to go back?"
"Want to beg my boss to go back? Sure! First, show your sincerity, and then we'll sit down and talk!" Sun Ji took the opportunity to play his role as a lackey, "As for what kind of deal we can make, it depends on your sincerity! The higher your sincerity, the better the negotiation results! Come on, bring out the gold; ten thousand or twenty thousand is not too little, one hundred thousand or eight hundred thousand is not too much!"
Having extorted Wu Gaofeng once, Sun Ji was obviously addicted to extortion. Now, when he saw Lin Muqing dressed so brightly, he saw a pile of gold ingots, and he opened his mouth to ask for money—it was that simple and crude.
"Beg you to go back?" Lin Muqing sneered, "You're thinking too much. I'm not here to beg you to go back, but to order you to go back!"
"Oh? Where does your confidence come from?" Xu Ming smiled.
"Hmph, you must have heard a lot about the power of our Lin family in the capital!" Lin Muqing said proudly, "I might as well tell you straight, if you keep hiding in the Wild Martial Academy, I really can't do anything to you; but as long as you leave, I have plenty of ways to deal with you—as long as I'm willing to pay the price!"
Xu Ming nodded, "Indeed, I admit that your Lin family has the ability. But since the Wild Martial Academy is so safe, wouldn't I die even faster if I went to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion with you?"
"As long as you are willing to return to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion and never see Chi Xue again, I can promise you that our past grievances will be written off!" Lin Muqing said, "And I can guarantee that I won't attack you in the future!"
"Listening to you, it seems like I should go back to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion with you, and thank you for not killing me?"
Xu Ming really admired Lin Muqing's shamelessness. Clearly, from beginning to end, he had been using various methods against himself; how could he now make it sound like he was forgiving himself—wasn't this person too shameless?
Moreover, even with such shameless words, Xu Ming knew that there must be a trick in it! Xu Ming didn't believe that if he really returned to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion, Lin Muqing wouldn't find a chance to attack him.
"Then what if I just don't go?"
"Not going? That's fine too, I won't force you!" Unexpectedly, Lin Muqing said this, "If you insist on not coming back to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion with me, I have also prepared two paths for you to take. The first path is that you, and your brother Sun Ji beside you, had better never leave the Wild Martial Academy, otherwise…hehe!"
Xu Ming's face turned cold.
If it was only aimed at himself, Xu Ming wasn't really afraid; but now, Lin Muqing even wanted to drag Sun Ji into it, which Xu Ming couldn't tolerate!
Although Xu Ming and Sun Ji had only known each other for a few days, he had indeed been infected by the straightforwardness of this simple-minded man. Xu Ming had even secretly investigated Sun Ji and confirmed that he was definitely a brother worth making friends with.
And now, Lin Muqing was actually threatening him with Sun Ji.
Xu Ming suppressed his anger and continued listening.
"As for the second path…I'll give you a chance!"
"What chance?"
"I want to challenge you! As long as you win against me, you can choose not to go to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion, and our grievances will still be written off; however, if you lose…you will honestly come back to the Flying Cloud Martial Pavilion with me!"
"Challenge?" Xu Ming raised an eyebrow, "Alright! Time, location?"
"Time, let's make it now! Location…the Myriad Beasts Martial Arena!"
