Chapter 106: The Golden Vajra Tiger Evolution Method
Chapter 106: The Golden Vajra Tiger Evolution Method (Requesting Monthly Votes)
As soon as Lin Qi made his decision, he stopped hesitating and immediately clicked to purchase The Golden Vajra Tiger Evolution Method.
This martial art cost 4.8 million Xia Kingdom Currency—extremely expensive. Lin Qi noticed a small footnote and clicked to expand it. The note revealed that the copyright for this martial art belonged to the Crimson Vault Martial Arts Pavilion.
Looking at the Adamantine Body Ape Evolution Method, he saw it belonged to the Black Radiance Martial Arts Gym. Since he was a contracted genius under Crimson Vault, purchasing this alternate martial art would require paying 1.5 times the price—7.35 million Xia Kingdom Currency. That was far too expensive for his current funds.
"No wonder Uncle Yue said I wouldn't regret joining Crimson Vault. This is why", Lin Qi muttered.
Skimming the list, he noticed more than half the martial arts were licensed to Crimson Vault. Founded by the Red Emperor—the world's strongest cultivator—their pavilion naturally held the deepest resources, evident from their sheer number of copyrights.
[Buy Golden Vajra Tiger Evolution Method? Yes/No]
[Yes]
Lin Qi clicked confirm.
[Mr. Lin Qi, as an A-Rank genius, you receive a 25% discount.]
[Your 1 million Points can be used to offset 1 million Xia Kingdom Currency.]
[Total payment required: 2.6 million Xia Kingdom Currency.]
A smile crossed Lin Qi's face. Points were meant for purchasing martial arts—essentially currency. He quickly completed the transaction, pressing his hand onto the projection screen.
[Fingerprint verification successful!]
[Payment confirmed!]
[Mr. Lin Qi, your martial art will arrive tomorrow. The instructional video has been added to your personal account. Please review it carefully.]
Lin Qi read the message, then checked his phone. After deducting 2.6 million, his balance had dropped to just tens of thousands.
"Good thing I had the 1.5 million Crimson Heaven Points from the Martial Arts Pavilion reward. Otherwise, I wouldn't have enough to buy resources." He frowned. While cheaper than expected, this purchase left him nearly broke. He still needed to acquire new Spear Techniques later.
"Which is why Uncle Yue emphasized the importance of the Monthly Assessment rewards. I need to place in the top ten province-wide next semester."
"At worst, it'll be cash rewards", he thought grimly.
Beyond Uncle Yue's promise, he aimed for an S-Rank Contract to secure more funds. Right now, money was critically tight—his only path forward required greater strength.
He exhaled sharply. All that remained was to wait for the martial art's arrival tomorrow and begin cultivation.

Martial Dao Calendar 2046, January 18
The Disaster Beast Tide hysteria continued growing, dominating conversations nationwide.
As the central figure, Lin Qi found his family hounded with questions whenever they visited friends—annoying him and his companions endlessly.
That afternoon at Crimson Vault Martial Arts Pavilion's Virtual Chamber lounge...
"Aheng, you're finally back!" Jiang Tao slapped Guo Heng's shoulder enthusiastically.
After vanishing for days, Guo Heng had finally reappeared. When asked, he shook his head grimly.
"My sister was assassinated—two days ago."
"Assassinated!" Jiang Tao gasped in shock.
Lin Qi, however, remained calm—the news wasn't new to him.
"Uncle Yue already explained", Lin Qi said.
"Aheng, did you hear about the Disaster Beast Tide incident?" Jiang Tao eagerly recounted the plaza events.
Guo Heng listened with widening eyes, absorbing the details. Watching Lin Qi, his expression turned complex. Only a few days apart, and you've already become this strong?
The thought sent a jolt of urgency through him. If Lin Qi surpassed him, it would be humiliating.
After exchanging a few more words, Guo Heng excused himself to return to his training hall.
Sitting cross-legged, he steadied his breath in the five-point heaven posture. Moments later, radiant particles surged into his body.
An hour later, his eyes snapped open—bright, piercing. His aura radiated strength.
"Training with Primordial Energy makes all the difference", Guo Heng said, clenching his fist. Vital energy coursed powerfully through him, his energy stat rising sharply.
"Practicing Primordial Energy cultivation requires visualization techniques—remember how I spent two full days perfectly visualizing the Golden Vajra Tiger?" He murmured, "I wonder how long Lin Qi will take..."
Lin Qi's sudden progress had stirred pressure within him. Coupled with his sister's assassination, his sense of crisis burned stronger than ever.
"Fifth in the city isn't enough anymore." His eyes hardened. "I'll break into the top ten province-wide—no, top five. I'll claim an S-Rank Contract too!"
"Big sister was right. Only by pushing yourself can you unlock your full potential."
His resolve deepened into unshakable determination.
...
Meanwhile, outside Crimson Vault Martial Arts Pavilion...
"Mr. Lin Qi, your package!"
A broad-shouldered man in red uniform handed him a black metal case—wearing a hat, mask, and emanating immense pressure. Lin Qi placed his palm on the case.
Red light scanned his hand.
"Beep!"
The red light turned green.
"Delivery confirmed, Mr. Lin Qi!"
"Thank you."
Lin Qi accepted the case and returned inside. In B123 Room, he changed into his training uniform before carefully opening the metal case.
"Beep!"
The case split down the middle, revealing red-and-white grooves holding an irregular obsidian-like stone—pitch-black, gleaming under the light.
"Master, this is the Black Radiance stone storing the divine beast image", Xiaochan's projection appeared—blue-robed, long hair flowing. "Top cultivators imprint disaster beast divine images into these stones. Activating it with your consciousness allows visualization."
Lin Qi nodded. He'd studied this yesterday.
"Primordial Energy cultivation hinges on the divine beast image. Without it, the visualization difficulty multiplies tenfold."
He downed a cup of specially-prepared pu'er tea to calm himself, then sat cross-legged.
"Xiaochan, play the instructional video!"
"Of course, Master!"
Xiaochan raised her arm, triggering the Crimson Heaven Residence system. A giant screen materialized before Lin Qi.
The projection showed an elderly man in a loose white robe—silver hair, sharp eyes—sitting in a lush garden blooming with flowers. Though his posture seemed peaceful, his aura radiated readiness to strike.
"Primordial Energy cultivation enables practitioners to absorb Primordial Energy", the elder began plainly, subtitles appearing below.
"Originally, humans used specific breathing rhythms to calm their minds and sense floating Primordial Energy in the air."
He spoke methodically as Lin Qi watched intently, memorizing every detail.
