Chapter 116: Entering the Spirit Realm, Dragon Roar Iron Cloth Armor

"Within the Spirit Realm, if you successfully defeat certain special Martial Artists, you will be rewarded with Temporary Spirit Points. The stronger your opponents, the greater the reward."

"Although Temporary Spirit Points disappear once you exit the Spirit Realm, they can still help enhance your strength while inside."

"In simple terms, the more you fight, the stronger you become!"

"As for who these special Martial Artists are, I'll send you a list of names in the group chat later. You can check it out later."

Another morning arrived.

Old Chu stood at the podium, elaborating on the details of the Fourth Layer Spirit Realm to his students:

"The Martial Skills in the Fourth Layer Spirit Realm can be categorized into two main types."

"External Martial Arts and Internal Martial Arts!"

"External Martial Arts are relatively easier to acquire. Any master of a boxing gym would know a couple of these skills, and you can learn them by paying the right price."

"However, there's a significant drawback to External Martial Arts. They can only elevate you to the Ming Jin realm at best."

"The true path to becoming a Martial Arts Master lies in Internal Martial Arts!"

"But Internal Martial Arts are incredibly rare. They are the closely guarded secrets of renowned Martial Artists, passed down only to their chosen successors. It's extremely challenging to obtain these arts from such possessive masters."

"I don't have any special advice for you on this matter. Whether you can acquire Internal Martial Arts or not depends on your luck."

"If you truly can't obtain Internal Martial Arts, use your Spirit Points to learn more External Martial Arts!"

"As the saying goes, the more skills you have, the better. Every Martial Art has its unique strengths, and learning more can only be beneficial."

Old Chu noticed his students' rapt attention.

He continued, "I know of a few excellent External Martial Arts that I recommend you learn."

"First, I suggest you try two Horizontal Training Martial Arts: the Golden Bell Mantle and the Iron Cloth Armor!"

"While both are Horizontal Training skills, they have different focuses."

"The Golden Bell Mantle primarily trains the internal organs and muscles, providing exceptional defense against sharp weapons like swords and knives. It's virtually impenetrable."

"On the other hand, Iron Cloth Armor focuses on training the bones and skin. When mastered, it's as if you're wearing an iron suit, offering excellent resistance against blunt attacks like punches, kicks, and clubs."

"These two Martial Arts are widely known and relatively easy to obtain. If you perfect them, they will evolve into the 'Tiger's Roar Golden Bell Mantle' and 'Dragon Roar Iron Cloth Armor,' significantly boosting your defense and becoming life-saving skills."

"Additionally, there are other excellent External Martial Arts like the Iron Sand Palm, Eagle Claw Technique, Hong Family Iron Wire Fist, Five Elders Bagua Staff, and Twelve Route Tan Legs..."

At this point, Zhao Zheng was astonished!

These Martial Arts Old Chu mentioned were all too familiar to him!

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, September 1st arrived.

It was around 9 a.m.

Zhao Zheng was awakened by his alarm clock, and the first thing he did upon opening his eyes was to check his Attribute Panel.

Race: Human

Constitution: 1310

Spirit: 377

Strength: 1310

Agility: 1310

Talent: Kryptonian Heritage 【Steel Body③, Super Strength③】

Skills: Bone Fist Impact, Armed Color Domination (Mastery)



Spirit Points: 340

...

This was Zhao Zheng's current Attribute Panel.

The reason for the 10-point increase in each attribute was that August, like July, had 31 days.

Zhao Zheng was extremely satisfied with his attributes.

Perhaps, in no time, he wouldn't need to maintain such a low-key, behind-the-scenes lifestyle...

Afterward, Zhao Zheng woke up, got ready, and had a hearty breakfast before heading to school.

Today was the day the Spirit Realm would open.

Upon arriving at the school, Zhao Zheng noticed that the playground was already filled with many sofas.

These sofas were likely custom-made by the school, long enough to seat four or five people, with a significant backward tilt for a comfortable semi-reclined position.

The reason for these sofas was that today's newcomers were entering the Spirit Realm through their consciousness.

Their physical bodies would remain in the Blue Star world.

Without these sofas for students to lie on, when their consciousness left their bodies and entered the Spirit Realm, their bodies would fall over! Although they were all extraordinary beings, a fall shouldn't be a problem, but it still wouldn't look good.

The school wasn't so stingy as to not provide even a sofa.

Why not let the students enter the Spirit Realm from their dorm rooms? Why bring them out to the playground?

Of course, it was to know the students' conditions at the first moment! The school was very concerned about which students returned and which remained forever in the Spirit Realm.

Additionally, gathering the students together made it convenient to monitor their status and tally their achievements.

When Zhao Zheng arrived at the playground, many students were already sitting on the sofas, chatting with their peers.

Song Haitang hadn't arrived yet, so Zhao Zheng found a spot and sat down, waiting to enter the Spirit Realm.

A moment later, Song Haitang arrived, right on time.

Seeing the sweat on the tip of her nose, Zhao Zheng was a little surprised.

He couldn't help but ask, "Haitang, did you train this morning too?"

Song Haitang nodded and said, "Anyway, this time, we're entering the Spirit Realm through our consciousness, so our physical condition doesn't matter. Training a bit won't affect it."

Zhao Zheng could only admire her dedication.

"One minute to go! Everyone, get ready!" a teacher shouted.

Upon hearing this, the students quickly laid down on the sofas and held hands with their teammates.

Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang did the same.

Then, everyone relaxed their bodies completely.

Their consciousnesses left their bodies and entered the Spirit Realm...

...

"Steamed buns! Freshly baked meat buns!"

"Don't miss it! Ancestral healing elixir, cures all injuries with a single application! Come and buy!"

"Mystic fortune-telling, a thousand words for a thousand gold! Today's special offer, only five bucks for a reading, money back if it's not accurate..."

This was a bustling street.

On both sides of the street were countless small vendors and shops, all with an old-fashioned style and simple signboards.

There were fabric sellers, pastry shops, porcelain vendors, and even sellers of straw sandals...

The sounds of hawking and shouting constantly echoed from the stalls on both sides.

The street was filled with pedestrians, most of them wearing the unique long robes of the Republican era.

Many men in mandarin coats were pulling yellow rickshaws, running back and forth on the street.

Occasionally, one could spot Westerners in tailcoats and top hats riding in the rickshaws.

At that moment, soldiers with red-tasseled spears and wide-brimmed hats, their long braids hanging down their backs, appeared on the street, instantly silencing the small vendors in fear.
