Chapter 2: Start of the Assessment

Yibao Pavilion.

Li Jiye sold the magic cores and bought a large bottle of liquid medicine before returning home.

He surprised his younger sister, Rou’er, about going to school.

Without a doubt, Li Rou’er was delighted to go to school.

While chatting with his parents at home, he told them about becoming a warrior.

When his parents heard this, their faces were full of excitement.

Wasn’t this exactly why they had sent him to Polar Star Academy in the first place?

Late at night.

Li Jiye returned to his bedroom, took out the body-building liquid he bought from Yibao Pavilion, and prepared to refine his body once again.


He couldn’t afford any liquid medicine before, but it was different now.

After refining his body with three bottles of body-building liquid medicine in succession, he felt the obvious changes in his body and how it strengthened tremendously.

The next morning.

He greeted his parents and then took Li Rou’er with him.

Soon, the two of them arrived at Polar Star Academy.

With his help, Li Rou’er awakened her skills after signing up.

Despite it being a C-level skill awakening, she was considered pretty good at Polar Star Academy.

Li Jiye felt better after ensuring there was a dedicated person in charge of her new accommodation.

After separating from Li Rou’er, he went to the martial arts pavilion in Polar Star Academy.

The martial arts pavilion consisted of five floors arranged according to levels. The authorization of ordinary students was limited to the E-level martial arts on the first floor.

Li Jiye’s clearance was also restricted to the first floor.

His eyes fell on the old man guarding the pavilion as soon as he entered.

Human: Bilder

Skill: B-level Flame Element

Realm: Tier 4 Warrior

Martial Arts: Flame of the Palm (C-level martial art), Flame of the Dragon (B-level martial art), Shadow Wind Steps (B-level movement technique), Godspeed Steps (E-level)

Li Jiye cared more about Bilder’s movement techniques as compared to his Tier 4 strength.

Shadow Wind Steps!

The speed improvement of the B-level steps was definitely incomparable to that of the low-level ones. This was exactly what he lacked!

His strength would definitely improve if he could obtain the Shadow Wind Steps.

The problem was how to reach Bilder.

He thought about it and decided to choose a martial art in the pavilion first.

His replication ability hadn’t been refreshed yet, so he didn’t have to worry about it now.

After making the choice, he walked straight to the bookshelf on the left, and looked around for martial arts that fit the wind element.

There were all sorts of skills and martial arts.

Although martial arts were universal, they could complement one’s talents and make it even stronger.

Of course, he had more than one kind of skill, but there was no doubt that the C-level skill was more powerful. Thus, when in search of a martial art, his priority was to find one complementary of the wind element.

After a long time, he finally found the first relatively satisfactory martial art, .

Once his cultivation was completed, his fists would be as fast as lightning.

As a bearer of the wind element, this was perfect for him.

He collected the martial arts book and hesitated a while before looking down at the “Steps” area.

The Storm Fist was good enough a technique, but he still lacked a step-movement one..

As for his pose, he had already decided to copy the Shadow Wind Steps from Bilder.

After half an hour of flipping through the martial arts books, his expression gradually changed to surprise.

The Godspeed Steps!

According to the cultivation introduction, the power of the Godspeed Steps was far from comparable to the other E-level martial arts, but the conditions for cultivation were very harsh,

Tier 1 warriors couldn’t practice it.

Even if a Tier 1 warrior wanted to, he must have the physical strength to counteract a Tier 2 warrior.

He finished choosing the two martial arts skills and didn’t stay behind.

Back at the door, he placed the two books on the table, and respectfully said, “Teacher Bilder, I’ve selected the two martial arts. Please let me register them.”

“Godspeed Steps?” Glancing at the martial arts books, Bilder’s face couldn’t help but twitch. “You have to think about it. Many people in the entire Polar Star Academy have tried to practice it, but only five have ever succeeded.”

“I’ve already thought about it. I want to practice it!”

“Return it in half a month. No other borrowing is allowed during this period. If you try to do so, you will be expelled from the academy.” Bilder frowned but registered the two books for him.

Li Jiye put them away, glanced reluctantly at him, and then left.

After leaving the martial arts pavilion, he found a secluded place instead of returning to the dormitory, and started practicing the Storm Fist.

In a few days, he managed to cultivate this martial art.

But he had yet to begin practicing the Godspeed Steps.

Although the body-building liquid medicine had increased his physical strength tremendously, it was still far from being able to cultivate the Godspeed Steps.

And now, he didn’t have enough gold coins to buy liquid medicine to increase his physical strength.

But tomorrow was the assessment test. After passing it, he could go to the Demonic Beast Mountain Range again to hunt demonic beasts down in exchange for more gold coins.

The day passed, and the day of the assessment came as promised. The replication ability was also refreshed.

Li Jiye didn’t expect that the assessment would be carried out in the back mountain range.

He could hunt the demons to obtain points.

This way, he didn’t have to make a trip down to the Demonic Beast Mountain Range alone to hunt and kill demons.

After all, the martial arts book could only be borrowed for half a month, and it took a lot of time to go back and forth from the Demonic Beast Mountain Range.

The person in charge of the assessment announced the rules.

Li Jiye followed the other participants into the back mountain.

He hunted demonic beasts and collected magic cores.

For him, the magic cores symbolized gold coins and liquid medicine.

As soon as he entered the back mountain, he separated from everyone else.

He was used to fighting alone after spending so much time in that mountain range.

He had scanned the other participants and found nothing worthy of replication.

Thus, it was better to hunt down more demonic beasts and make himself stronger, so that he could have the opportunity to meet stronger people.

Shuttling quickly through the mountains and forests, he finally saw his first prey after a short while!

He stopped at a distance and vigilantly watched the demonic beast not far away. The demon’s information appeared before his eyes.

Monster: Shadow Cat

Skill: D-level Poison Element

Realm: Tier 1 Demon

Immediately, he searched for information on the Shadow Cat demon in his mind.

In the past year at Polar Star Academy, despite not being able to become a martial artist like the others, he hadn’t stopped studying and reading all kinds of books.

His knowledge of demonic beasts was not something ordinary people could compare to.

Although the Shadow Cat was only Tier 1, its agility and attack power were very strong, and its attacks came with a dark corrosion effect. It was definitely one of the most difficult demonic beast to defeat among the Tier 1 demonic beasts.

Especially with its four sharp pointed claws. Once hit by them, your skin would be poisonously corroded.

If it wasn’t treated in time, there would only be a dead end for you.

At this time, the demon also noticed Li Jiye. Its two dark eyes immediately emitted a fierce light, and the fangs in its mouth also quietly emerged. Cold light flashed from its paws and it put on an attack stance.

RAWR!

In the next instant, the Shadow Cat suddenly exerted force, and from a distance of more than ten meters, it closed in on him within two or three breaths, kicked its hind legs on the ground, and then leaped high. It extended its two front paws towards him and attacked.

Upon seeing this, Li Jiye backed away continuously.


With its blow falling into thin air, the Shadow Cat didn’t stop and continued to attack with a ferocious roar.

Li Jiye took out the dagger at his waist and charged to meet its attack.

Despite the agility of the Shadow Cat, after countless desperate fights with demons, Li Jiye far surpassed martial artists of the same ranks in terms of combat experience and ability.

He once again avoided the Shadow Cat demon’s claws, and the dagger in his hand also sliced open a gash in its body.

Splash!

A line of blood appeared on the Shadow Cat demon, and scarlet blood spurted out.

Seizing the opportunity, Li Jiye slashed the dagger towards its neck.

Ah…

In the end, the Shadow Cat moaned, fell to the ground, and died.

Without stopping, Li Jiye took out the magic core with his dagger, and then continued his hunt.
