This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!

Before the Implant is integrated, the body must be essentially fully developed, so no matter how talented, one can only begin integrating the Implant and embark on the path of Martial Arts at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

This means that if one can cultivate from the Embryo Cultivation Stage to the Tao Foundation Stage within five to six years, they could be considered a peerless talent.

Li Fei had stepped into the Tao Foundation Stage in less than a year...

This was indeed the highest gold content in history!

It was hard to imagine anyone breaking this record in the future.

Looking at Li Fei, who was meditating with his eyes closed, Li Tianyu truly realized for the first time the 'weight' of her younger brother!

She was 19 this year and had just made a breakthrough to the Qi Change Middle Stage; she did not dare to hope that she could become a peerless talent but wished she could reach the Tao Foundation Stage in the next 11 years and earn the title of a prodigy.

At this moment, the other students in the carriage were also silently considering their own status.

Among those present, several were 25-year-olds at the peak of the Qi Change Stage, just beginning to approach 'Unity.'

Knowing the difficulty of achieving 'Unity,' they did not dare to hope to become prodigies.

They would be satisfied if they could complete 'Unity' and reach the Tao Foundation Stage within ten years.

After a moment, Li Fei stopped cultivating and opened his eyes.

He had already integrated the "Flame Core," and these past few days, he had been rapidly stimulating the growth of the Implant.

"Take a look at this."

Li Tianyu walked over and handed Li Fei the newspaper she was holding.

Li Fei took the newspaper and skimmed over the "Heavenly Pride Theory" written on it.

"Disciple Gan Jingcheng from Upper Pure Sect, integrated with five types of Implants."

"Ning Chuan from Daluo Sect, integrated with four types of Implants."

"The Buddha's son, Ming Qi, integrated with five types of Implants."

Li Fei paid special attention to these three peerless talents.

Without using the Myriad Blood Pearl, the difficulty for him to overcome these individuals with his own combat power was quite significant.

After all, these three hailed from top Martial Arts Sects, with legacies and mastery of profound Martial Arts incomparable to Li Fei's!

"I wonder which tier these people belong to?"

Li Fei muttered to himself.

As heirs of top Martial Arts Sects, the foundations of their Martial Arts were also of the highest tier. Therefore, theoretically, every type of Implant they integrated had the potential to trigger Core Level Extraordinary Abilities.

Even without triggering any Core Level Extraordinary Abilities, merely being a Fifth Tier Tao Foundation Stage Martial Artists also held the chance to challenge the Martial Arts Master Realm.

However, each triggered Core Level Extraordinary Ability not only strengthened combat power but also improved the integration of the Implant and the body.

The deeper the integration, the higher the chances to construct the Martial Arts Foundation and breakthrough realms.

Besides, the deep integration of the Implant and one's body also stimulated the Mind Power of the Martial Artist, better combining their own Qi-Blood and Force, thereby cultivating Tao Power.

Thus, true Martial Artists aspiring to ascend in Martial Arts always tried to trigger as many Core Level Extraordinary Abilities as possible.

Daluo Sect, Upper Pure Sect, and those from Pudu Temple, being peerless talents, would presumably not be in a rush to breakthrough realms without solidifying their foundations.

Thus, Li Fei believed that these three individuals should have at least Sixth Tier combat power!

While his own persona publicly only possessed Third Tier combat power.

Thinking of this, Li Fei swiftly closed his eyes and resumed his cultivation.

...

"Heavenly Pride Theory" quickly became popular throughout the north and south of the river!

It was not just because the title "peerless talent" was eye-catching but also because "Heavenly Pride Theory" was the first article in these years that openly discussed the realms of Martial Artists.

Before this, the general public had been only vaguely aware of the Martial Arts World.

Back when Li Fei attended Zhi Ge Department in middle school, the teachers had said, 'You'll know when you get to university.'

Even the students of Zhi Ge Department were like this, not to mention ordinary people who had even fewer channels to understand the Martial Arts World.

Therefore, the content written in "Heavenly Pride Theory" was so captivating and drew widespread attention.

Only then did the vast majority of people finally understand that in the Martial Arts World, there were realms such as the Qi Change Stage and Tao Foundation Stage.

They learned that reaching the Tao Foundation Stage was already quite impressive.

At the same time, the names of eight peerless talents appeared in the streets and alleys, with Li Fei's name being mentioned the most.

There was no helping it; compared to the other seven peerless talents, he was simply too conspicuous!

A few months ago, the title "Green-faced Ghost King" had 'made waves in the capital,' followed by resounding throughout the World, sparking discussions among many influential figures.

Now, with the popularity of "Heavenly Pride Theory," Li Fei's true name gained even greater renown, truly resonating throughout the land!

On September 14, when Li Fei and others arrived in Cang Province, they heard another sensational piece of news:

This time, the Martial Arts exchange competition would be broadcasted on television, live across the nation!

Da Lan Dynasty had only introduced televisions from Western countries in recent years.

Looking around the country, families who could afford a TV were few and far between.

Thus, the people who would ultimately be able to watch this broadcast might not even reach 0.1% of the national population.

But this was the first televised Martial Arts competition in the history of Da Lan Dynasty!

So regardless of the actual number of viewers, this was bound to be a historical event!

The competing students who just got off the train became ecstatic upon hearing this news, taking pride in it.

Li Fei was contemplative.

From the early intense promotions to "Heavenly Pride Theory," and now to the live television broadcast.

Clearly, the court was intentionally creating momentum.

The only question was, what was their objective?

Li Fei and his group soon arrived at Tianqu University.

Like Wu'an University, Tianqu University also had an extensive campus.

As they entered the school gate, they were approached by students who were specifically responsible for receiving and negotiating.

One of the students bowed respectfully to everyone and asked,

"May I know which one of you is Student Li Fei? And which one is Student Wang Fengqing?"

Li Fei and Wang Fengqing were both momentarily stunned.

"I am Li Fei."

"I am Wang Fengqing."

The two of them stepped forward from the crowd.

The student from Tianqu University bowed again to the two of them and politely said,

"It's like this, our senior Yuwen Donghao has specially arranged a 'Supreme Heavenly Pride Banquet' tonight, inviting all the supreme talents to attend the banquet. Here are the invitations."

Saying this, he presented two invitations to Li Fei and Wang Fengqing.

Li Fei took the invitation and glanced at it, his expression strange.

"May I ask who this Senior Yuwen Donghao is?" Li Fei asked.

"Senior Yuwen Donghao is also a competitor in this competition and is a Tao Foundation Stage powerhouse," the student from Tianqu University explained with slight embarrassment.

No one under 25 had reached the Tao Foundation, but his name wasn't on the 'Heavenly Pride Theory', indicating that he must have made his breakthrough to the Tao Foundation Stage after the age of 23.

Li Fei immediately guessed Yuwen Donghao's purpose. Setting up such a 'Supreme Heavenly Pride Banquet' was probably an attempt to gain fame and stand on equal footing with the other supreme talents.

This made Li Fei lose interest instantly.

"Sorry, I'm worn out from the journey, and the competition starts tomorrow, I need to rest well..."

"Yuwen Donghao's father is the vice chancellor of Tianqu University, Master Yuwen Xinzhang!" As Li Fei was about to decline, the Tianqu University student quickly revealed this significant information.

"Oh, please convey my apologies to Senior Yuwen Donghao, I will not be attending the banquet tonight."

After hearing this, Li Fei didn't hesitate even for a second, continuing with his refusal.

"This...."

The student from Tianqu University looked embarrassed and turned towards Wang Fengqing.

"I'm sorry, I feel the same as Junior Brother Li Fei," Wang Fengqing said calmly.

She didn't even bother to think of a reason, simply giving a 'same as above' response.

"....Alright, sorry for disturbing you."

The student from Tianqu University awkwardly turned and left.

Afterward, Li Fei and the others were led to a large building, and each was given a private room.

Li Fei had already eaten dinner on the train, so he locked his room upon entering and continued his cultivation.

He practiced his cultivation deep into the night; Li Fei finally completed today's cultivation of the "Flame Core", having pushed its growth to its limits. He had to wait at least ten hours before he could continue stimulating it.

After the cultivation of the "Flame Core" finished, Li Fei did not stop.

He swallowed an Elixir called "Awaken" to rouse the dormant "Illusion Leaf", then he began cultivating the "Illusion Leaf".

On the bed, Li Fei sat cross-legged, using the Nightmare Sect's meditation method 'Qing Mu Chao Tian', combined with medications to stimulate the "Illusion Leaf" implant.

At a certain moment, Li Fei's meditative environment suddenly changed.

He found himself once again amidst thick fog!

"Hmm?"

Having experienced this once before, Li Fei quickly realized,

"Am I being subjected to the Dream-Entering Skill again?"

"Has the Daluo Sect also arrived at Tianqu University? Which True Master from Daluo Sect is leading them and secretly applying this technique to me?"

"But wouldn't that be too obvious?" Li Fei pondered deeply.

"The box is empty!"

"The box is empty!"

At that time, the voice again transmitted through the fog, repeatedly echoing the same phrase.

Li Fei didn't use the 'Red Sound Fire Vajra Phase' to break the dream as he had before; instead, he tried walking deeper into the fog.

If the person applying the Dream-Entering Skill really wanted to tell him something, at least he should receive more information.

Li Fei walked in the fog for a while, but the surrounding environment didn't change, and the voice kept echoing, repeating the same content.

After thinking for a while, a green leaf-shaped pattern suddenly lit up on Li Fei's forehead.

Ever since his last experience with the Dream-Entering Skill, he had specially practiced a Taoist Technique.

This technique was specifically for dealing with dreams and could only be used by someone in the Divine Transformation Stage.

Li Fei clasped his hands together in a seal, and a strong force of Void Thought surged out from the green leaf pattern on his forehead.

The next second, a gust of wind spontaneously formed and began furiously sweeping away the surrounding fog!

Soon, the fog was completely cleared, and the scene before Li Fei's eyes also changed:

He found himself in a great hall, and looking up, he saw a painting hanging in the center of the hall:

"Where does one seek immortality"

Boom—

The next second, the dream shattered.

Li Fei awoke from the dream realm.
