I Have A Martial Arts Panel - Chapter 130

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

On the platform, Sun Fengjun, Ji Yimiao and others were taken aback.

Xu Ning avoided the attacks of two demon beasts before throwing Gu Yishang in the middle of three demon beasts. This sequence of events seemed a bit ridiculous.

Although they didn’t recognize Xu Ning, they all acknowledged that Xu Ning’s strength was already at the top of the inner sect.

The mid level demon beasts in the void realm were still chasing the inner disciples on the stage frantically.

Only the giant wolf that was beaten by Xu Ning just now, appeared to be a bit sluggish in its movements. It obviously hadn’t recovered from the flurry of blows yet.

It wanted to retaliate back against Xu Ning, but because of its sluggish movements, every time it approached Xu Ning, Xu Ning would run into the crowd and lose it.

Time flew by.

The inner disciples on the platform had stepped down one by one.

Soon, only Xu Ning, Sun Fengjun and Ji Yimiao were left on the platform.

‘In the end, these are mid level void realm demon beasts. The fewer disciples on stage, the fewer the targets available for the demon beasts. If this continues on, the pressure on me will increase to a point that I can’t hold on.’

Xu Ning had raised his perception to the extreme.

Bang!

A demon beast suddenly reached out its claws and slashed it at Sun Fengjun.

Luckily, he was protected by the elder host, so Sun Fengjun was not injured.

Only Xu Ning and Ji Yimiao were left on the stage.

Ten mid level void realm demon beasts surrounded the two.

“I’m Ji Yimiao.”

Ji Yimiao was a polite young man.

The two were surrounded, but Ji Yimiao still took the initiative to introduce himself.

“Seven Boxers, Xu Ning.”

When Xu Ning saw Ji Yimiao took the initiative to speak to him, he responded in turn.

Back in the stands, Le Caiwei had told Xu Ning about Ji Yimiao.

He was an inner sect powerhouse, the Leader of the Wet Wind Crowd, and a martial artist in the void realm third stage: genus realm.

“Xu Ning…”

Ji Yimiao said Xu Ning’s name quietly.

Because of Xu Ning’s seclusion, he had never met Xu Ning before. He had only heard that Xiao Qiyun of the Seven Boxers was missing.

“After being surrounded by so many demon beasts, we are the only ones remaining.”

Ji Yimiao said, “Instead of being driven off of the stage by these demon beasts, isn’t it better to teach them a final lesson.”

“What do you plan to do?”

Xu Ning felt that Ji Yimiao was quite interesting.

After looking at the demon beasts surrounding them, Xu Ning was inclined to listen to Ji Yimiao’s plan.

“Look at that silly wolf, the one you injured previously. It hasn’t recovered yet, so let’s start with it.”

Ji Yimiao said, “I will do my best to strike it to free up an opportunity for you to land a few more punches, and let’s see if you can take it down.”

“Even if we fail and lose, it will not be embarrassing. On the flip side, if we succeed, it will make people respect us inner disciples even more!”

“Okay.”

Xu Ning agreed.

Ji Yimiao’s plan was carefully calculated. If he took the first shot, he was bound to be retaliated against and be knocked off the stage.

In this case, Xu Ning would be the only one who survived to the end.

“Go!”

The demon beasts were about to play with their food.

But then, Ji Yimiao suddenly attacked.

His clothes rustled in the air, and a strong gust of wind and tearing force gathered in his palm. He rushed directly in front of the giant wolf beast, and before the giant wolf could respond, he slapped its forehead.

The giant wolf was in pain from that slap, and it instinctively swung out its paw, knocking Ji Yimiao off the stage.

Seeing this, Xu Ning took the opportunity and jumped, when the monster’s attention was still on Ji Yimiao.

His fiery qi and watery qi surged.

The Flame Breath Bone Sutra strengthened Xu Ning’s body instantly. Immediately after, he threw out a flurry of Tidal Fists.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The giant wolf took all six punches.

After punching out six times, Xu Ning suddenly felt a demon beast pouncing behind him.

He could smell its bloody breath and hear its roar.

Just when Xu Ning was surrounded by demon beasts, Xu Ning suddenly felt a force engulf him.

After that, it pulled him off the stage.

‘Seems like I’m done.’

Xu Ning turned his head to look at the stage. He saw that the mid level giant wolf demon beast was lying on the ground, throbbing in pain.

“Xu Ning, nicely done.”

Ji Yimiao, who was knocked down next to Xu Ning, stood up beside him.

The two looked at each other and both smiled.

The two strangers bonded well together.

The first round with inner disciples was over.

Thousands of eyes from the stands stared at Xu Ning.

Everyone could see that he was the one who performed the best on stage.

“Sh*t!”

The white-haired elder looked at the injured giant wolf demon beast with a helpless expression. “A demon beast was injured. When we return it to the Beast Hunting Sect, their elders will charge us!”

Mi Xingye didn’t care about the white-haired elder’s worries.

He stood up and asked Xu Ning, “What is your name?”

The audience could hear Mi Xingye’s voice.

“I am Xu Ning, an inner sect disciple. Greetings, Sect Master.”

Xu Ning didn’t expect Mi Xingye to take the initiative to speak to him.

“Will you be my in-name disciple?”

As soon as Mi Xingye said that, the entire Yuelan Square was in an uproar.

‘The Sect Master wants to accept an in-name disciple?!’

He Mingye was the only disciple under Sect Master Mi Xingye.

If Xu Ning became Mi Xingye’s in-name disciple, then his status would probably be on the same level as other core disciples.

“I accept!”

At first, Xu Ning was surprised, but he then immediately agreed.

Only an idiot would refuse Mi Xingye’s support.

“Xu Ning is now an in-name disciple of the Sect Master!”

The Seven Boxers was in an uproar.

Although Xu Ning had become Mi Xingye’s in-name disciple, he would still remain as an inner disciple. This was the rule of the Yuelan Sect.

With this new status of his, Xu Ning had become a top talent among inner disciples.

Everyone anticipated that after the end of the demon slaying conference, the Seven Boxers would return to its former glory, and take back its disciples and resources.

Not only would the Seven Boxers return to its former glory, but it would be better than before.

“Yes!”

Gu Qinghe had a big smile on his face.

He had joined the Seven Boxers with Xu Ning’s recommendation when they were at their lowest point. In the future, he would definitely receive no shortage of resources from the Seven Boxers.

Half a month ago, the batch of Pure Source Pills from Gu Qinghe’s home had arrived, and he had already exchanged it for a void realm secret scroll.

If there was a stable supply of resources in the future for Gu Qinghe, he would have a high chance of advancing to the void realm.

“This Xu Ning guy…”

Duan Xuefeng, who was a core disciple, had a look of worry in his eyes.

He had some friction with Xu Ning because of his connection with Gu Qinghe.

He was now thinking about how to resolve his disputes with Xu Ning.

Although he was a core disciple and Xu Ning was only an in-name disciple, the difference in their status still made Duan Xuefeng quite jealous of Xu Ning.

“Ji Yimiao!”

The white-haired elder stood up. “Are you willing to be my in-name disciple?”

Ji Yimiao also had a stellar performance.

“I accept!”

Ji Yimiao immediately agreed with a happy expression on his face.

Although his status was not as grand as Xu Ning’s, Ji Yimiao was still very satisfied.

He knew well that only by becoming an in-name disciple, could he have the opportunity to get in touch with a dao seal, and make up for the disadvantages of practicing a middle-grade void realm secret scroll.

Sun Fengjun was also selected as an in-name disciple by an elder.

“Second inner disciple round, begin!”

The elder host made another announcement.

Seeing that there were cases of disciples in the first round becoming in-name disciples, the other inner disciples seized the opportunity and rushed to the stage.

They all hoped that they could also display a good performance to the elders.

“Xu Ning, come sit here.”

Mi Xingye greeted Xu Ning and asked him to sit next to He Mingye.

Xu Ning complied.

The second round began.

“Junior Brother.”

He Mingye took the initiative to speak to Xu Ning. “From now on, we are disciples under the same master.”

“Senior Brother, please take care of me.”

Xu Ning did not expect that the top genius of the Yuelan Sect, who could easily kill a high level void realm demon beast, would be so approachable.

“Junior Brother, you cultivated a water and fire-based double secret scroll, right?”

He Mingye no longer paid attention to the stage.

“Yes, what I am practicing is a secret scroll called the Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll.”

Xu Ning answered truthfully.

He Mingye showed a look of pity when he heard his words. “A middle-grade void realm secret scroll… is less effective.”

“But you don’t have to worry too much, Junior Brother. If you have the opportunity to use the dao seal in the future, the gap between a middle-grade and superior-grade void realm secret scroll will disappear.”

He Mingye said.

In fact, because of the existence of the Martial Arts Panel, the benefits of a superior-grade void realm secret scroll were not applicable to him.

But the “dao seal” mentioned by He Mingye sounded familiar to Xu Ning.

Before coming to State Jifeng, he and the three Wei family members were kidnapped by an old woman and a buff man, and they had also mentioned the term “dao seal” back then.

“Senior Brother, what is a dao seal?”

Xu Ning asked.

He Mingye answered directly, “Don’t worry about this for now. Wait until you reach the void realm sixth stage. At that time, Master will naturally let you use the dao seal.”

“Junior Brother, after the demon slaying conference is over today, rest for the night, then come find me in the core disciple sect tomorrow.”

He Mingye continued, “I will personally teach you the sword secret techniques, the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword.”

Seeing that He Mingye was taking on the role of a mentor, Mi Xingye didn’t say much.

“Water Cross Sword? Bright Fire Sword?”

Xu Ning looked at He Mingye.

When He Mingye killed the high level void realm demon beast just now, he had only used a water sword secret technique.

Now it sounded like he still had a fire sword secret technique.

“Not bad.”

He Mingye said, “I am also a fellow practitioner of the water and fire characteristics.”

Xu Ning did not expect He Mingye to have practiced the same characteristics as him.

He now also understood why Sect Master Mi Xingye chose him to be his disciple.

It was because his foundation was similar to He Mingye.

“Senior Brother, I have practiced a water-based secret technique and a fire-based secret technique as well.”

Xu Ning said, “I’m afraid that it will take a lot of energy to learn the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword”

There was a hint of subtlety in his words.

Xu Ning was not worried about his attention being placed elsewhere, but the fact that he did not have enough energy units.

Void realm secret techniques were different from mortal realm external skills.

He consumed very little energy in the cultivation of external skills, so there was no harm in learning multiple external skills.

But in contrast, the energy consumption of cultivating void realm secret techniques was much greater. If he practiced multiple secret techniques, it would consume too much energy, which would affect his advancement speed.

“Junior Brother, I’m afraid I don’t understand.”

He Mingye said, “If you are looking for greater improvement in the future, it is not enough to practice one secret technique for each characteristic.”

“The void realm is different from the mortal realm. There is no substantial connection between external skills and internal skills in the mortal realm. In the void realm, the realms cultivated by secret techniques are like the soil, and the characteristics cultivated by secret techniques are equivalent to the plants.”

“The heavier the soil, the better it is for plant growth. The more plants, the more branches and leaves there will be. And when the fruits mature, it will create a positive feedback loop on the soil.”

He Mingye was very patient. “I observed you just now. The characteristics of your two secret techniques are water penetration and fire erosion, but the characteristics of the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword differ greatly.”

“If you only want to reach the peak of the void realm, it is fine to only cultivate one characteristic, but if you want to reach past the void realm, you must integrate more characteristics.”

When He Mingye said this, he also had a look of confusion in his eyes.

Hearing this, Mi Xingye’s lips moved, but he didn’t speak.

He felt that He Mingye had said too much. Although Xu Ning performed well today, Mi Xingye did not expect Xu Ning to reach He Mingye’s level.

He was afraid that He Mingye speaking too much would affect Xu Ning’s mental state.

“Above the void realm…”

Xu Ning was intrigued.

No one had ever told him about the layer above the void realm.

Xu Ning felt a little curious, but when he saw that He Mingye didn’t continue to explain, he didn’t ask any further questions.

“If that is the case, I will learn the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword from you tomorrow.”

Xu Ning said.

“Okay.”

He Mingye was also satisfied when he saw Xu Ning agreeing with him.

He was determined to cultivate, and if Xu Ning could keep up with his footsteps, He Mingye would also feel quite happy.

…

The demon slaying conference was over.

During the demon slaying conference, some disciples seized the opportunity to improve their status or practice conditions.

Among them, Xu Ning gained the most.

Xu Ning’s name received a lot of attention in the Yuelan Sect.

By now, everyone knew that he was friends with the first core disciple.

After the demon slaying conference was over, Xu Ning and others returned to the inner sect.

That night, there were a large number of inner disciples who voluntarily asked to join the Seven Boxers.

Among them, there were some disciples who were frustrated by other inner groups, so they took the opportunity to break away from their group and register as a member of the Seven Boxers.

Instantly, the Seven Boxers became the most desirable group among the inner sect groups.

Knife Moon Crowd.

“Sis, what do we do now?”

Ever since the demon slaying conference, Gu Zhiyin had been restless.

Their old opponent, the Seven Boxers, suddenly had the Sect Master’s in-name disciple in their group.

Once they tried to take action, the Knife Moon Crowd might just be ruined.

The situation of the Seven Boxers and the Knife Moon Crowd had undergone a complete reversal..
