"The cultivation method of Ming Guang Half Saint is not as good as the Jiutian Mingdi Jing, but his understanding of martial arts is far stronger than mine. Studying the half-saint saint intention diagram he left behind has also been of great help to me."

  As Zhang Ruochen comprehended the Day Moon Star Chart, the true energy within his body continuously merged into his bones, causing a faint starry glow to emanate from his skeleton.

  Physical strength is constantly improving.

  Ming Guang Half Saint's martial arts are different from Zhang Ruochen's current cultivation method. Ming Guang Half Saint places more emphasis on the physical body, especially the tibia bone.

  A martial artist, once choosing a certain kung fu style, finds it difficult to change and practice another.

  But even if two martial artists practice the same technique, their paths are completely different. Some achieve greatness, while others do not.

  Comprehending the semi-saint's will is to learn the semi-saint's martial path, thereby changing one's own martial path to a certain extent and breaking through the limitations of Gongfa.

  Some of the highly talented martial artists, after comprehending the martial paths of multiple Half-Saints and Saints, can even create their own unique martial path, an independent set of skills.

  Just like the Jiutian Mingdi Jing and the Peacock Sacred Canon weren't created by the ancients?

  Zhang Ruochen has high demands on himself, naturally not wanting to be limited by the Jiutian Ming Emperor's classics, and also wants to comprehend more semi-saints and saints' martial arts, striving to create an even stronger martial art based on the Jiutian Ming Emperor's classics.

  "With my current martial arts cultivation, I can already contend with some weaker Tianji Realm warriors, but the number of techniques I can use is limited."

  "It's time to cultivate the fifth palm of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm to the ninth fold, increasing the attacking power of the palm technique."

  Xiang Li Jiu Die, Zhang Ruo Chen has already cultivated up to six layers and can burst out with six times the attack power.

  The further back it goes, the more difficult it is to cultivate.

  It's already very difficult to make progress just by cultivating in the inner space of the Time-Space Crystal.

  So, he must go to Tongsheng Mountain and borrow the special environment of the Gravity Refining Chamber to help him cultivate "Ninefold Elephant Power".

  Gravity Training Chamber, can form a tenfold gravity, even hundredfold gravity environment. In such an environment, not only can better cultivate palm techniques, but also enhance physical quality, making Zhang Ruochen's physique stronger.

  The four realms of martial arts are "Huang, Xuan, Di, and Tian", which emphasize the cultivation of the physical body even more.

  The physical body is the foundation of all martial arts.

  Before heading to Tongsheng Mountain, Zhang Ruochen planned to make a trip to Gongxun Tower first to exchange his merit points.

  As soon as Zhang Ruochen arrived at Gongxun Tower, many people recognized him.

  "He's none other than Zhang Ruochen, who has recently made a name for himself. It's said that Du Xingyi, one of the Seven Young Heroes of the Black Market and the young master of the Poisonous Spider, died at his hands."

  "Not just the young master of the Poisonous Spider Clan, but also two black market Tianji Realm experts were killed by him."

  "What he can kill Tianji's top masters, isn't it to say that he already has the strength to enter the Earth List, and in Neigong Academy, he can probably rank among the top five."

  "He's so young, not even twenty years old, yet he has such terrifying strength. I reckon that in the future, even the Great Master will not be his match."

  "Killed the poisonous spider young master and two Tianji boundary black market masters, don't know how many merit points can be obtained, at least 30,000 merit points."

  Being able to enter the Imperial Academy, they were all top-notch geniuses of the younger generation, not a single one was mediocre. Even so, when they saw Zhang Ruochen, they still felt an extraordinary excitement, with a feeling of gazing up at a high mountain.

  That was a young king who could kill the martial arts legend

  Someone like Zhang Ruochen is a genius, to say nothing of being in the Tianmo Ridge, even if placed in those half-saint families or saintly clans, he would still be considered a young and promising figure.

  At this moment, a man wearing a silver long gown walked out of the Meritorious Tower. He was seven feet tall, with an icy temperament and every expression carried an air of strong dominance.

  Four or five inner palace students followed him like attendants, walking behind him.

  Those who are qualified to wear silver robes in the inner palace are only three, each of whom is a top-notch master and can be called the three great overlords of the inner palace.

  Other inner palace scholars all looked up to them.

  This silver-robed man, named Qiu Lin, is the second-ranked student in the Imperial Academy of Internal Affairs, ranked 27,861st on the Earth List, and also one of the Ten Talents of Tianmo. He has a very high reputation in the thirty-six counties of Tianmaling.

  Two years ago, Jū Lin fought against the Water Leech King at Tongming River and killed it. Then he fought against the aquatic savage beasts at Tongming River for three days, killing over a thousand of them, dyeing the river red within a hundred miles.

  It was this battle that made him famous throughout the land.

  Qiu Lin gazed at Zhang Ruochen from a distance, revealing a hint of disdain, and asked an inner palace disciple beside him: "Is he the inferior prince of a lower-ranking kingdom who fawned on Yun Chen's princess and Chen Xie's sister?"

  Xun Guihai stood behind Qiu Lin, revealing a hint of coldness, and said: "Report back to Master Qiu, he is Zhang Ruochen."

  Xun Guihai was a prominent figure in the outer court, but when he entered the inner palace academy, he couldn't even rank among the top 100. In front of Qiu Lin, he naturally became very respectful and courteous.

  Not to mention that Xun Guihai has not grown up yet, even if he grows up in the future, it's not necessarily possible for him to reach the height of Qiu Lin.

  Qiu Lin's strength was capable of killing a fourth-stage savage beast. In the Imperial Academy, aside from Si Xing Kong, who would dare show him disrespect?

  Xun Guihai saw Qiu Lin walking towards Zhang Ruochen and immediately revealed a schadenfreude expression.

  "Wow, it's Qiu Lin Shixiong, he's actually also at the Merit Tower." A rather elegant female student exclaimed.

  "It's indeed Qiulin Shixiong. I heard that he took on a mission recently to deal with a demonic cult branch within the borders of Jingyue Prefecture. He probably has already completed the task and is back to exchange for merit points."

  Qiu Lin had long been accustomed to the screams of those inner palace students, a hint of a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

  In the Imperial Palace, he is the true monarch, Zhang Ruochen is still too tender.

  Qiu Lin walked up to Zhang Ruochen's face, not hiding his hostility at all, and said with an overbearing tone: "Zhang Ruochen, I heard you killed the young master of the Poisonous Spider"

  Zhang Ruochen looked at Qiu Lin and said, "May I ask who you are?"

  "Qiu Lin." Qiu Lin said proudly.

  "Ah, it's actually Elder Qiu; I've long admired your great name."

  After finishing speaking, Zhang Ruochen bypassed Qiang Lin and walked towards Gongxun Tower.

  Qiu Lin ranked sixth in Tianmo's Top Ten, so Zhang Ruochen had naturally heard of his name.

  However, Zhang Ruochen still had to exchange his merit points and rushed to Tongsheng Mountain to cultivate, so he didn't have time to chat with Qiu Linhan. He just replied with a sentence and left directly.

  Qiu Lin, however, had no intention of letting Zhang Ruochen off so easily. He sneered, "Zhang Shidi, I am still the second senior brother of Wu City's Xue Gong Palace. You are being too disrespectful to me."

  Zhang Ruochen's eyes narrowed and he stopped in his tracks, saying: "Qiu Shixiong, your words are too severe. Where did I show disrespect to you?"

  Qiu Lin Dao: "You respect me when you see me, have you ever paid homage to me?"

  Zhang Ruochen seemed to understand, Qiu Lin was trying to provoke him on purpose.

  But Zhang Ruochen couldn't figure out where he had offended him.

  Zhang Ruochen doesn't like to cause trouble, but when trouble comes, he's absolutely not afraid of it.

  Xun Guihai sneered behind Qiao Lin: "Zhang Ruochen, you really think that killing the young master of the Poisonous Spider makes you invincible among your peers and allows you to look down on others?"

  Another female student who worships Qiu Lin also said, "In front of Brother Qiu, they actually dare to be so arrogant, I really don't know where their confidence comes from."

  Zhang Ruochen's gaze sank, his sharp eyes staring at Xun Guihai and others.

  Xun Guihai didn't fear Zhang Ruochen at all, saying: "You glared at me, did I say anything wrong? You're young and arrogant, that's fine, I can understand. After all, you're the fiancé of the Smoke Dust County Princess, with the support of the Thousand Waters State, nobody dares to provoke you. But when you saw my senior brother, you didn't even show a bit of basic courtesy, this is something Xun cannot tolerate."

  Zhang Ruochen's anger turned into a smile, and he said: "Xun Guihai, then what do you think I should do to be polite?"

  Xun Guihai revealed a hint of sinister smile, he thought today was a good opportunity, since Qiu Lin wanted to find trouble with Zhang Ruochen, it's just right to teach Zhang Ruochen how to be a human being.

  Xun Gui Hai Dao said, "Brother Qiu has been in the Imperial Academy for ten years and is not only our senior brother but also our predecessor. You've just entered the Imperial Academy and are still a newcomer, at least show some respect."

  This world respects the strong and anywhere will appear the phenomenon of the strong preying on the weak.

  Only the strong can be respected, while the weak can only be trampled on.

  Even if they were all inner palace students, they were still divided into three six nine grades.

  Powerful as the forest, that is the king of the inner palace students, standing at the top level of existence. As long as he says one word, other students must unconditionally offer their cultivation resources to him in order to seek his protection.

  It is precisely because of this cruel jungle law that Qiu Lin has become accustomed to the feeling of being high above, and other disciples naturally show reverence when they see him.

  If someone doesn't show respect for him, he will be very unhappy.

  For example, Zhang Ruochen.

  Zhang Ruochen glanced at Qiu Lin and said, "We are all inner palace students, coming to the Wu City Academy is just for martial arts training, why bother with so many rules."

  The several inner palace students standing behind Qiu Lin all burst out laughing, thinking that Zhang Ruochen was just a silly fool.

  "The world is so big, without rules and regulations, how can it be in order? The weak should learn to obey, they should serve the strong. When seeing the strong, one should have a reverent heart."

  Xun Guihai grabbed a young inner palace disciple from the crowd, grasped that inner palace disciple's meridian, and dragged him in front of Qiu Lin.

  "Do you think we should pay our respects to Master Qiu Lin?" Xun Guihai said solemnly.

  That inner palace student has been in the inner palace for half a year, and is very familiar with the rules of the inner palace. As an outer palace student who wasn't even considered outstanding, entering the inner palace would only make him look up to someone like Qiu Lin as an unattainable existence.

  Because, Qiu Lin wanted to deal with him as easily as pinching a dead ant.
